CANTON The village is restarting its search for additional water.
In order to grow as a community, we need to increase our water supply, Trustee Mary Ann Ashley said. I really feel this is a priority.
The villages main water supply comes from Waterman Hill. The amount produced is adequate for current needs but travels through six miles of older pipes before reaching the village, and it does not offer much of a surplus, especially during lengthy dry periods, such as last summer.
It wasnt to a critical point. We had a surplus of 10 to 15 percent, but Im not comfortable with that, village Superintendent Brien E. Hallahan said. The Department of Health has really put us on notice and is pressuring us to have a supplemental source. Its not something we want. Its something we need.
Village Board of Trustees members have agreed tentatively to put $155,000 in the upcoming budget to drill up to five test wells.
Hydrologist Hanson Van Vleet, Clifton Park, has identified about a dozen locations where the likelihood of finding water is high. Among the top spots are two locations on property owned by SUNY Canton, one at the southern end of St. Lawrence University property and one near United Helpers Maplewood campus.
Finding more water would fit into college expansion plans, especially at SUNY Canton, where the village already has a water tower.
I believe we have their support and cooperation, Mr. Hallahan said.
Having alternative sources also would allow the village to decommission its filtration plant, which can treat water from the Grasse River. The plant has been closed for years but cannot be eliminated in case it is needed in an emergency.
Some years back, the village identified additional water at the uplands source.
Probably more could be captured there, but the price per gallon was going to be prohibitive, Mr. Hallahan said.
The village also tried twice to acquire a well at the former Kraft plan capable of producing about 100,000 gallons of water daily, but the company backed away from a deal.

Meniere's disease is a disorder of the inner ear that causes spontaneous episodes of vertigo — a sensation of a spinning motion — along with fluctuating hearing loss, ringing in the ear (tinnitus), and sometimes a feeling of fullness or pressure in your ear. In many cases, Meniere's disease affects only one ear.
People in their 40s and 50s are more likely than people in other age groups to develop Meniere's disease, but it can occur in anyone, even children.
Although Meniere's disease is considered a chronic condition, various treatment strategies can help relieve symptoms and minimize the disease's long-term impact on your life.
The primary signs and symptoms of Meniere's disease are:
A typical episode might start with a feeling of fullness in your ear, increasing tinnitus and decreasing hearing followed by severe vertigo, often accompanied by nausea and vomiting. Such an episode might last 20 minutes to four hours, after which signs and symptoms improve. Episodes often occur in clusters, with long periods of mild or no symptoms (remission) between.
Still, the severity, frequency and duration of each of these sensory perception problems vary, especially early in the disease. For example, you could have frequent episodes with severe vertigo and only mild disturbances in other sensations. Or you may experience mild vertigo and hearing loss infrequently but have frequent tinnitus that disturbs your sleep.
See your doctor if you experience any signs or symptoms of Meniere's disease. Because any one of these problems may be the result of other illnesses, it's important to get an accurate diagnosis as soon as possible.
Vertigo is an uncommon but possible sign of other disorders, such as stroke, brain tumor, multiple sclerosis, or diseases of your heart or blood vessels (cardiovascular disease). See your primary care doctor immediately if vertigo is accompanied by any of the following signs or symptoms:
The cause of Meniere's disease isn't well understood. It appears to be the result of the abnormal volume or composition of fluid in the inner ear.
The inner ear is a cluster of connected passages and cavities called a labyrinth. The outside of the inner ear is made of bone (bony labyrinth). Inside is a soft structure of membrane (membranous labyrinth) that's a slightly smaller, similarly shaped version of the bony labyrinth. The membranous labyrinth contains a fluid (endolymph) and is lined with hair-like sensors that respond to movement of the fluid.
In order for all of the sensors in the inner ear to function properly, the fluid needs to retain a certain volume, pressure and chemical composition. Factors that alter the properties of inner ear fluid may help cause Meniere's disease. Scientists have proposed a number of potential causes or triggers, including:
Because no single cause has been identified, it's likely that Meniere's disease is caused by a combination of factors.
The unpredictable episodes of vertigo are usually the most debilitating problem of Meniere's disease. The episodes often force a person to lie down for several hours and lose time from work or leisure activities, and they can cause emotional stress.
Vertigo can also increase your risk of:
You're likely to first see your family doctor or a general practitioner. Eventually, however, your primary care doctor may refer you to an ear, nose and throat (ENT) specialist, a hearing specialist (audiologist), or a nervous system specialist (neurologist).
Because appointments can be brief, and because there's often a lot of ground to cover, it's a good idea to be well prepared for your appointment. Here's some information to help you get ready, and what to expect from your doctor.
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions. Being ready to answer them may reserve time to go over any points you want to spend more time on. Your doctor may ask:
A diagnosis of Meniere's disease requires:
If you have signs or symptoms associated with Meniere's disease, your doctor will ask you questions about your sensory problems, order tests that evaluate the quality of inner ear function and order other tests to screen for possible causes of the problems.
Your doctor will conduct a physical examination and ask questions about:
A hearing test (audiometry) assesses how well you detect sounds at different pitches and volumes and how well you distinguish between similar-sounding words. The test not only reveals the quality of your hearing but also may help determine if the source of hearing problems is in the inner ear or the nerve that connects the inner ear to the brain.
Between episodes of vertigo, the sense of balance returns to normal for most people with Meniere's disease. But there may be some degree of ongoing balance problems.
There are several tests that assess function of the inner ear. Some or all of these tests can yield abnormal results in a person with Meniere's disease.
Videonystagmography (VNG). This test evaluates balance function by assessing eye movement. Balance-related sensors in the inner ear are linked to muscles that control movement of the eye in all directions. This connection is what enables you to move your head around while keeping your eyes focused on a single point.
In a VNG evaluation, warm and cool water or warm and cool air are introduced into the ear canal. Measurements of involuntary eye movements in response to this stimulation are performed using a special pair of video goggles. Abnormalities of this test may indicate an inner ear problem.
Other tests may be used to rule out disorders that can cause problems similar to those of Meniere's disease, such as a tumor in the brain or multiple sclerosis. These tests include:
No cure exists for Meniere's disease, but a number of strategies may help you manage some symptoms. Research shows that most people with Meniere's disease respond to treatment, although long-term hearing loss is difficult to prevent.
Your doctor may prescribe medications to be taken during an episode of vertigo to lessen the severity of an attack:
Your doctor may prescribe a medication to reduce fluid retention (diuretic), such as the drug combination triamterene and hydrochlorothiazide (Dyazide, Maxzide). Reducing the amount of fluid your body retains may help regulate the fluid volume and pressure in your inner ear. For some people a diuretic helps control the severity and frequency of Meniere's disease symptoms.
Because diuretic medications cause you to urinate more frequently, your system may become depleted of certain minerals, such as potassium. If you take a diuretic, supplement your diet each week with three or four extra servings of potassium-rich foods, such as bananas, cantaloupe, oranges, spinach and sweet potatoes.
Some people with Meniere's may benefit from other noninvasive therapies and procedures, such as:
Medications injected into the middle ear, and then absorbed into the inner ear, may improve vertigo symptoms:
If vertigo attacks associated with Meniere's disease are severe and debilitating and other treatments don't help, surgery may be an option. Procedures may include:
Endolymphatic sac procedures. The endolymphatic sac plays a role in regulating inner ear fluid levels. These surgical procedures may alleviate vertigo by decreasing fluid production or increasing fluid absorption.
In endolymphatic sac decompression, a small portion of bone is removed from over the endolymphatic sac. In some cases, this procedure is coupled with the placement of a shunt, a tube that drains excess fluid from your inner ear.
Certain self-care tactics can help reduce the impact of Meniere's disease. Consider these tips for use during an episode:
Modifying your diet can reduce your body's fluid retention and help decrease fluid in your inner ear. Your doctor may suggest you follow these dietary changes to lessen the severity and frequency of Meniere's disease symptoms:
Some evidence suggests that lifestyle factors may worsen symptoms of Meniere's disease or act as triggers for the onset of symptoms. Your doctor may recommend the following changes to alleviate symptoms or help prevent the onset of symptoms.
Meniere's disease may affect your interaction with friends and family, your productivity at work, and the overall quality of your life. You may find encouragement and understanding in a support group. Group members can provide information, resources, support and coping strategies. Your doctor may be able to recommend a group in your area, or you may find information about local groups from the Vestibular Disorders Association.

A woman was hurt this morning when the Oldsmobile she was driving collided with an AppalCart bus on King Street. The wreck was just past the Water Street intersection at about 10:15 when driver of the sedan, Juanita Bollaert of Boone, came across the center line
and struck the bus, according to Boone Police. She was carefully removed from the car with the assistance of Boone Fire, but then after being checked out by Watauga Medics, refused transport to Watauga Medical Center. Investigators at the scene said that the collision tore the left front wheel off of the mounting of the Olds sedan, while flattening a tire and causing some $2000 or more damage to the bus. Juanita Bollaert was cited for being Left of Center.

The United Nations plans to use its upcoming UN Conference on "Sustainable Development" (UN CSD or Rio+20) in Rio de Janeiro to amass a vast array of unprecedented new powers and literally re-shape civilization, the global economy, and even peoples' thoughts, according to official documents. All of it will be done in the name of transitioning toward a so-called "green economy."
Among the new authorities being sought by the world body are global carbon taxes, wealth redistribution amounting to trillions of dollars per year, and a barrage of programs dealing with everything from poverty and education to health and resource allocation. Virtually no realm of human activity will be unaffected by the scheme, which analysts have described as a "mammoth exercise in global social engineering."
The global transformation agenda was laid out in a recently published report entitled "Working towards a Balanced and Inclusive Green Economy: A United Nations System-wide Perspective." The document — prepared by a group of more than 35 UN agencies and assorted international institutions under the banner of the UN "Environmental Management Group" (UNEMG) — explains the goals of the global body's upcoming "sustainability" summit. The conference marks the 20th anniversary of the 1992 UN Earth Summit that adopted the highly controversial "Agenda 21."
"Transitioning to a green economy requires a fundamental shift in the way we think and act," the document explains, calling for greater "education," information, and "awareness" efforts to help "change individual and collective behavior" in lifestyles as well as consumption and production patterns. The agenda will necessitate "a serious rethinking of lifestyles in developed countries," it notes.

CLEVELAND -- First off, as a bargain hunter, I take personal offense to stores that throw around the term Black Friday when it's not Black Friday as a way to entice shoppers to spend.
The sales rarely come close to what we'll see in November, and just like we saw when Home Depot had a Black Friday sale last year, almost all the bargains are seasonal and not store-wide.
So that brings us to Target's Black Friday sale today. Here's what I've concluded: The sale is superb, but in no way comes close to what we'll see in November.
Also, many of their price points today are very close to deals I've found from other stores over the past week, albeit these were absolutely superb deals.
So I have made my list of deals available today that are worthy of a "Black Friday" title, in addition to a link to Target's Black Friday sale.

FREEPORT, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- A Freeport-based company that's only about a year old has won a grant of up to $100,000 from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to expand its reach.
Possibility U is a website that helps high school students choose a college based not only on their interests, but on the likelihood that they'll get in and receive grant aid. The grant allows Possibility U to create an app for Facebook that will reach students where they spend a lot of time already.
The company launched in 15 schools last year. Students at Morse High School in Bath are among those who have been using the Possibility U website, and Guidance Counselor Leslie Trundy said it's been a real asset.
Trundy said, "The more I learn about it, the more it excites me in terms of the potential it has for really giving kids the curriculum they need to know about the college admissions process and their families."
Sydne Campbell, a Morse High Senior, said one feature of the website really appealed to her. It was a so-called "heat map" that shows the likelihood a student will get into a given college and get aid, based on GPA, class rank, and SAT or ACT scores.
Campbell said she didn't feel very confident about her chances, until she saw that map. "It made me feel better because it's not all about the SAT scores, which I was really worried about."
Possibility U CEO Betsy Peters said Facebook will help the company in a couple ways. First, students share a lot of information on their Facebook pages that might help the company better match them with colleges. Peters said, "The more data we take in, the more we can start to watch how individuals can play with that data and prefer that data, and the more we can make good recommendations, just like Amazon."
Peters also said the Facebook app that the company is creating could give students reminders on when applications to schools are due, and messages from guidance counselors about the college search. It also could let students know about alums or current students from colleges they're interested in that live nearby.
"The beauty of integrating with Facebook is that you can bring that peer network in while you're making decisions," Peters said.
Peters said representatives of Possibility U will be heading to California soon to meet with people at Facebook and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to work on the app. Possibility U is one of 21 companies that received the grant, and representatives from all those companies will do some work together as well. The hope is to have an app ready to test by this summer, and for the app to be available to all students in September.

text: Hey, Baxi Luna 310 Fi combi boiler I generally don't get into extensive service on gas appliances. Had a customer call with "no hot water at shower" but has very hot water at lav and kitchen sink. I suspected moen cartridge so I replaced it. After nosing into it more, there is hot water when using the shower head, but not when using tub spout, unless moentrol valve is open to allow only a small amount of flow then it gets hot. this tells me the boiler is not keeping up with the higher flowrate of the tubspout vs showerhead or sink faucets. This boiler has been in for a few years I believe and this problem only started after the original installer performed a service on it and changed a diverter inside the boiler that controls the flow for heating/domestic water load. There shouldn't be any control required for heat vs domestic flow as there is no call for heat, just to be sure I turned the boiler to only domestic hot water mode and the problem remains, making me suspect its not the diverter itself. Any ideas what else could cause this?

The new Koenigsegg One:1 has been revealed. It's set to become the world's most powerful production car, packing 1,322bhp, and it's been shown for the first time at the Geneva Motor Show.
The Koenigsegg Agera design cues will be carried over to the One:1, which is based on that car, such as the small LED framed rear lights and oversized central exhaust. Most noticeable changes over other Koenigsegg models such as the Agera S and R is the addition of a huge rear wing supported by two fins emerging from the roof.
• What is the fastest car in the world?
The One:1 name also bears some significance, as it refers to the power to weight ratio of the car. The 5.0-litre turbocharged V8 from the Agera now produces 1,322bhp (1,340hp), matching the kerbweight of 1,340kg. That means the One:1 will become the world's most powerful production car, taking the crown from the 1,300bhp SCC Ultimate Aero.
The torque that the engine produces is staggering too: 1,371Nm at 6,000rpm. The One:1 gets a 7 speed dual clutch automatic gearbox and an electronic differential.
This means the car can go from 0-250mph in around 20 seconds - and the huge ceramic brakes take it back to 0 in just 10 seconds.
It would appear Koenigsegg is gunning for the title of the world's fastest production car, too – currently owned by the 1184bhp Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, which set a 267.8mph record. The tyres fitted to the One:1 are rated for up to 273mph - indicating that the car could be able to hit those speeds.
Just six Koenigsegg One:1 cars will be built, and there's no word on price yet - but don't expect it to be cheap.
Met the man in Sweden once - fascinating story.
@def90cars: got any other names to drop?
I've met Clarkson, May & Hammond & a host of other celebs. :-P
Very slow car. I prefer my Little Tikes Cosy Coupe.
My grandparents drove past Jeremy, James and Richard in their campervan on a narrow road in Italy in the summer two years ago.
"The stuff that dreams are made of"
No, I don't name drop.... as I was saying to David Beckham the other day....
I'm fairly confident they know what they're doing, it will have some performance benefit- the p1 has the same. F1 cars have a gap in there rear wings and that certainly isn't for appearance- it's something to do with reducing the high pressure build up on top or something along those lines.
F1 cars have them because of adjustments (not to mention DRS today) and dumb regulations so they have limited dimensions for each part of the car, especially for the wings.
Don't know, maybe there is actually some high-tech answer to it, but all I see is just less downforce and much more drag.
The use isn't what I'm getting at. I'm saying it's hardly likely they put it there for no reason, if it's also something that appears on F1 car and p1 etc. It's likely it has some benefit otherwise there'd be no point.
That World record is out of date, an American car has just this month set a record of 275mph. So the 'Koenigsegg One' will need even better tyres.
my gulfstream jet is way faster, and doesn't get stuck in traffic.
Too late. the Nissan GTR R35 has 2000 HP and street legal for daily use if you choose.
That's right a Lotus set the record.

One of the primary justifications for the welfare state comes from Christians. They say that the welfare state demonstrates the willingness of the American people to fulfill God's commandments with respect to human relationships.
The Ten Commandments include "Thou shalt honor thy mother and father." In the New Testament, Christ tells us that the second-greatest commandment is "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." God exhorts people to show compassion and care toward their fellow man, especially those in need.
Social Security and Medicare, it is said, demonstrate the willingness of Americans to honor their parents and other elderly people with retirement pay and free health care. Medicaid, public housing, food stamps, and education grants show the care and compassion that Americans have toward the poor. The welfare state in general, many Christians hold, shows that Americans are a good, caring, compassionate people, people who are fulfilling God's will.
Actually, however, it's the exact opposite. In actuality, the welfare state constitutes a rebuke of God. Here, in a nutshell, is the message that Christian statists give to God with their embrace of the welfare state:
Lord, we understand how You want us to behave toward our fellow man, including our parents, the poor, and others in need. You want us to show compassion and care toward such people. You want us to lend a helpful hand to them.
But the problem, Lord, is that You made a big mistake when You vested mankind with free will. Don't feel bad about that, Lord. Everybody makes mistakes.
When You gave people the great gift of free will, You obviously believed that people would use their freedom to choose rightly and correctly. Such has not turned out to be the case, however. If people were free to decide for themselves whether to honor their mother and father — to care for them in sickness or old age — the discomforting truth is that most of them would say no. The same goes for helping the poor and others in need. People are just too selfish, Lord. You should never have trusted them with so much freedom.

What travelers to Chicago are saying
Chilled Chicago
Chicago goes by a few names: Chi-Town, Second City, the Windy City, the City That Works, the City of the Big Shoulders… The list goes on and on, because Chicago can be many things to many people – visitors and locals alike.
It is the city of the skyscraper, with Chicago's steely, classical skyline boasting the two tallest buildings in the US, the Willis Tower and the Trump Tower.
It is a city at the heart of African-American culture, as the Civil War brought with it a great African-American migration, and with it the beginnings of blues and jazz. More recently it has been associated with two particularly notable African-Americans – Barack Obama and Oprah Winfrey, arguably the most influential people in the US. (The jury's still out as to who gets the top spot, but there ain't a President in history who's served for 25 years straight!)
With beaches (Oak Street and North Avenue), parks (Midway and Washington Park), sport (the Bulls play basketball at the United Centre and the Bears play American Football at Soldier Field) and theatre (The Playground and recent Steppenwolf), perhaps the best name for Chicago would be the City of Many Faces.
Visit with a purpose or wander aimlessly, but either way Chicago will show you its face. Which one you see depends entirely on you.
Chicago's Top 10
10. Willis Tower Better known by its old name as the Sears Tower, this is the tallest building in the Western hemisphere. It's worth visiting for the incredible elevator trip alone (103 floors!)
5. Wrigley Field Home to the Chicago Cubs baseball team, Wrigley Field is one of the oldest stadiums in the US. It's worth catching a game just to feel the history of the place (and for the world-famous hotdogs).
9. Chicago Botanic Garden Set in 385 acres and comprising 24 individual gardens, it's perfect for an early morning jog or late-night stroll.
4. Museum of Science and Industry If you've brought kids, this museum is full of interactive exhibits and mind blowing displays.
8. Lincoln Park Zoo One of the oldest zoos in the country, there is something for everyone here, including a children's zoo and paddle boats.
3. Art Institute of Chicago One of the world's largest and most expansive art collections. Multiple trips are needed to enjoy all it has to offer.
7. Auditorium Theatre A national landmark that provides the best cultural, theatrical and musical entertainment in Chicago.
2. John Hancock Observation Deck: Although only the fourth-tallest building in Chicago, its location on the shore provides the best views of the entire city.
6. Oriental Institute Museum With a confusing moniker, this museum actually houses one of the largest collections of ancient Mediterranean artefacts.
1. Millennium Park Set against the beautiful lakefront, Millennium Park is the most interesting and photographed location in Chicago.

Chicago Local
Situated in the centre of Chicago, the tallest building, the ritziest shopping outlets and the most famous cultural institutions make The Loop a firm tourist favourite.Grant Park in the middle of the city has been there since Chicago was founded – and the majority of the city's music and cultural festivals taking part within its leafy grounds. The Loop is a place where you can safely lose hours of time just staring at architecture. Our picks for must-ogle buildings are the Rookery, the Jewellers Building and the Fine Arts Building.
Upper-class homes and entertainment make Lakeview a favourite for the big-spending traveller, while also providing the best of Chicago's sport and nightlife. Lakeview is home to Chicago's greatest rock venue, the Metro, which has an uncanny knack of booking bands that are just about to make it big. So if you're interested in catching a live set from the next big thing, check it out!
Lakeview is also home to Schuba's and The Vic, if you want good rock and good beer. For those wanting more of a cultural experience, Lakeview provides the best of a Chicago tradition – storefront theatre. The Briar Street Theatre is a must-visit as it is home to the world-famous Blue Man Group.
Hyde Park
At the centre of the University of Chicago campus, Hyde Park falls into the African-American district of South Side – home of gumbo and real blues. But what used to be a thriving nightclub scene is now, sadly, largely desolate. However, the Checkerboard Lounge (although newly renovated and relocated) still holds some legendary stories. Next door is one of the finest dining experiences in Chicago, with Park 52 offering intriguing décor and delicate foods. Be sure to check out neighbouring Bronzeville, titled the 'Black Metropolis', including historical attractions as the Dusable Museum of African-American History.
Wanna know where the Chicago hipster walking down the street across from you found that vintage jacket? The answer is probably Pilsen, and for those looking for a fashionably dirty experience, this is the place to hang out.
Originally settled by Irish and German immigrants, this end of Chicago is full of culture, including the new National Museum of Mexican Art, which highlights the importance and influence of Mexican art on the US, and Biblioteca Popular del Barrio, which provides access to small-run, often socially left and radical literature.
And if you want to buy that jacket we were talking about… Deliciously Vintage and Knee Deep Vintage are your best options: providing 'glimpses of the future as seen from the past'.
Lincoln Square
Lazy and sure of itself, Lincoln Square looms big and bold in Chicago's cityscape. At its heart lies Giddings Plaza, a place for meeting up and enjoying the sound of buskers. The Albany Park Theatre Project sees experienced local theatre-makers guide young ensemble casts through stories of the neighbourhood, a great place to catch up on the myth and history surrounding Lincoln Square (Al Capone, anyone?).
Unique shopping opportunities also exist within the bounds of Lincoln Square. Laurie's Planet of Sound provides what some call the best music experience in the city, with experienced staff who are mostly musicians. The Book Cellar offers antique and collectible books, frequent book readings and even a glass of wine if you're so inclined.
Chicago Eat & Drink
One Sixtyblue This renovated pickle factory is the height of Chicago elegance. The open-plan kitchen allows diners to look on as modern French cuisine is prepared with opulent designs in mind.
Alinea Rated the sixth-best restaurant in the world, Alinea brings an amazing but still accessible take to modern cuisine.
Ann Sather With four branches around the city, Ann Sather offers quintessentially Chicago cuisine. Inspired by Scandinavian and Swedish culinary traditions, the food is, simply put, outstanding.
MK With exceptionally high wooden ceilings and hearty brick, it's hard to believe that this restaurant is new. Its brand of flavourful new American cuisine is attracting food tourists and locals for its non-pretentious manner.
Duke of Perth The only worthwhile Scottish pub in Chicago. There are no TV screens, no distractions, only the people you came with and the people you might leave with. With over 90 blends of whiskey, this is a place for serious drinkers (not to be confused with problem drinkers).
Hopleaf Bar Equipped with a beer garden and a relaxed vibe, the Hopleaf is the perfect example of a neighbourhood bar done right.
Sheffield's Beer and Wine Garden A hub for the local literary community, you can catch the odd literary reading at Sheffield's, and enjoy your beer with some culture.
Green Mill Cocktail Lounge With over a century of drinking under its belt, the Green Mill is generally recognised as the best jazz club in the world. The cocktail list is full of favourites, and if you're extra nice to the bartender he'll show you what he's been working on behind the scenes.
Chicago Events
In January, still covered by Christmas snow, the Winter Celebration of Lights ignites the largest greenhouse in the United States with music and intricate lighting displays.
With over 400 local artists demonstrating a range of painting, sculpture and performance art, February's Around the Coyote Art Festival reveals the cultural underbelly of the Second City.
Attracting the best local and international comedy acts, the Chicago Comedy Festival is situated across five of the city's largest and most renowned theatres in May.
Situated on the lake front, the Chicago Blues Festival coincides with its Gospel counterpart in June. The musical history of Chicago can be split between the two: according to some, Chicago is the birthplace of both the modern blues and modern gospel movements.
In August, the Chicago Old Town district becomes converted into a Japanese cultural hub. Located in and around the Midwest Buddhist Temple, the Ginzo Festival celebrates both ancient and modern Japanese traditions including displays of cuisine, design and martial arts.
In one of the more interesting Chicago traditions, Carolling to the Animals sees the Lincoln Park Zoo in December converted into a Christmas wonderland with real snow and real animals to keep you and all of your senses company.
When To Go
Summer offers a cavalcade of festivals and outdoor events, showing off the best of Chicago. It also attracts loads of tourists, so may be a bit busy for anyone wishing to take it all in at a slower pace.
Winter and autumn are some of the prettiest times in Chicago. The streets are layered with snow and leaves and you'll have to rug up to look like a local. Tourists seem to avoid the cold, but if you want to embrace a city without the rush of crowds, head to Chicago for Thanksgiving. It's empty!
What To Miss
Chicago's Chinatown is great for a walk through, but food and souvenirs are seriously marked up for tourists. Your best bet is visiting Argyle, another Chinese neighbourhood with the same stores but much more reasonable rates.
Avoid Michigan Avenue. Although located in the middle of Downtown, it offers nothing more than expensive shopping and obnoxious crowds.
Although bus tours offer a massive selection of must-see attractions, you'll be whizzing past things that need a lot longer to digest and enjoy.
Getting Around
Catch a bus: Chicago is too spread out to explore by foot, so buy a ticket in advance and make use of the extensive bus network. Because the city is so expansive, it's easy to become confused about where you are. Ask the bus driver if in doubt – they're usually pretty friendly!
Hire a bike: Rated in the Top 10 Cycling Cities in the US, Chicago's relative flatness means you'll be able to zoom from location to location. Unfortunately you won't be able to shop too much and will have to fight the traffic, but the zooming bit will be fun.
If you're heading out to the suburbs (why not?), catch the train: easily the quickest and safest option.
Chicago Information
America's "Second City" is no pushover. Brassy and bold Chicago combines a salt-of-the-earth, working-class sensibility with all of the cosmopolitan, erudite allure of a major global city.
With a metro population that hovers near 10 million strong, "The Windy City" on Lake Michigan is the dominant force in the vast American Midwest. Chicago's humble roots are planted firmly in heavy industry and distribution but while the city is still a vital transportation hub, it now plays a much larger role as a paramount financial and big business capital. Tourism is a lynchpin for the home of Michael Jordan, Oprah Winfrey and Barack Obama, with over 44 million annual visitors to the Illinois city.
The Chicago Board and Trade Building
The Chicago Board and Trade Building, with art deco structural design, is a National Historic Landmark.The Willis Tower
The Willis Tower (former Sears Tower) has been the skyscraper of record in the United States for over three decades. The Skydeck on the 103rd is a popular Chicago tourist attraction.The John Hancock Center
The John Hancock Center tower is another icon in the city, with Lake Michigan as a pictorial backdrop. The observation deck on the 94th floor offers expansive views of metro Chicago.Lincoln Park
With over 30 km² of parkland, Chicago merits the motto of "City in a Garden". Lakefront harbours, museums, recreation areas, wildlife preserves and lagoons are just several of the green space features in store for visitors. Lincoln Park, with over 20 million annual visitors, is the most popular in the city, with a conservatory, free zoo, nature museum and golf course.The Chicago Cultural Center
The Chicago Cultural Center, a reception hall for foreign leaders, is also a fabulous showcase of contemporary art.The Museum Campus
The Museum Campus is a lakefront park with a trio of world class attractions in the Shedd Aquarium, Adler Planetarium and Field Museum of Natural History.
Music and Nightlife
Chicago has a lively entertainment scene, with myriad concert halls that cater to every taste. Jazz, blues and soul music have notable roots in the city. Classical lovers will enjoy the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Joffrey Ballet. The city is also home to the Lollapalooza rock and alternative music festival, now held in Grant Park every summer.Sports Scene
Chicago constantly ranks as the best sports city in America, with championship teams in a variety of sports. More importantly however, city fans are among the most faithful and obsessive in North America. From the Cubs and White Sox in baseball, Blackhawks in hockey, Bulls in basketball and Bears in football, pro sports and Chicago go hand in hand.Taste of Chicago
Taste of Chicago is a culinary festival without peer. The annual outdoor event in late June draws upward of 3 million people to a slew of food stalls in Grant Park.
Chicago has a continental climate with four seasons that bring typical extremes in summer and winter.
- Winter (December to March) -5-8°C
- Spring (April to May) 5-21°C
- Summer (June to September) 14-29°C
- Fall (October to November) 1-18°C

Jaundice is one of the most common conditions needing medical attention in newborn babies. Jaundice refers to yellow colouration of the skin and the sclerae and is caused by a raised level of bilirubin in the circulation, a condition known as hyperbilirubinaemia.
Approximately 60% of term and 80% of preterm babies develop jaundice in the first week of life, and about 10% of breastfed babies are still jaundiced at 1 month of age. In most babies early jaundice is harmless. However, a few babies will develop very high levels of bilirubin, which can be harmful if not treated.
Clinical recognition and assessment of jaundice can be difficult, particularly in babies with dark skin tones. Once jaundice is recognised, there is uncertainty about when to treat, and there is widespread variation in the use of phototherapy and exchange transfusion. This guideline provides guidance on the recognition, assessment and treatment of neonatal jaundice in babies from birth to 28 days.

The Internal Revenue Service and partners nationwide have launched the Earned Income Tax Credit Awareness campaign, aimed at helping millions of Americans who earned $50,270 or less take advantage of the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC).
The annual campaign is necessary because one-third of the eligible population changes each year as their financial, marital and parental statuses change. Although an estimated four out of five eligible workers and families get the credit, one in five still miss out on it, either because they don't claim it when filing, or don't file a tax return at all.
"A large part of the nation sees major changes every year with their tax situation," said IRS Acting Commissioner Steven T. Miller.
The EITC varies by income, family size and filing status. The average EITC amount last year was around $2,200. People can see if they qualify by visiting IRS.gov and answering a few questions using the EITC Assistant. In tax year 2011, over 27 million eligible workers and families received nearly $62 billion total in EITC.
Workers, self-employed people and farmers who earned $50,270 or less last year could receive larger refunds if they qualify for the EITC. Unlike most deductions and credits, the EITC is refundable. In other words, those eligible may get a refund from the IRS even if they owe no tax.
To get the EITC, workers must file a tax return, even if they are not required to file, and specifically claim the credit. Those eligible for the EITC have free options to file a tax return to claim the credit:
Free File on IRS.gov Free brand-name tax software walks people through a question and answer format to help them prepare their returns and claim every credit and deduction for which they are eligible. The program also allows people to file electronically for free, using Free File Fillable Forms, which are online versions of our paper forms designed for taxpayers comfortable preparing their own returns.
Free tax preparation sites EITC-eligible workers can seek free tax preparation at thousands of Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) and Tax Counseling for the Elderly (TCE) sites. To locate the nearest site, taxpayers can search www.IRS.gov or call the IRS at 800-906-9887. Taxpayers can also find VITA/TCE sites by calling their community's 211 or 311 line for local services.
IRS Taxpayer Assistance Centers EITC-eligible workers can seek free assistance in IRS locations across the country. Locations are listed online at www.IRS.gov. Hours and services offered vary by location and should be checked before visiting.
More information on EITC and detailed eligibility rules are available at www.irs.gov/eitc. IRS partners should also visit EITC Central at www.eitc.irs.gov for helpful resources.

Looking Ahead: Jets 2013 Offensive Line
Brian Bassett , TheJetsBlog.com
Over the next few days, we'll take a look at each position on the Jets roster and take a look ahead at what the Jets might expect and might need to address this coming offseason. Up next, the Offensive Line.
Coming Off The Books
RG Brandon Moore — Moore is the longest tenured Jet on the offense. He's also one of the top Guards in the league. He's also 32 years old. Overall he's been an excellent player for the Jets but he's struggled at the start of the last two seasons with his run blocking. For the Jets, they love Moore, but might not be able to afford to keep him based on their cap concerns. This contract will likely be the last one where he can get above a veteran minimum from someone in the league and I could easily see him as a likely landing spot in Saint Louis since he'd already be familiar with Schotty's system and current starter Shelley Smith isn't as good as Moore. Moore's play is starting to get more shaky, but could still have 2-3 years of good play left in him. I don't think he'll be back but the best way to try and keep him would be to attempt to sign Moore with a contract that is advantageous to the Jets in 2013, but gives Moore his due in 2014 right before his play starts to fall off.
LG Matt Slauson — And here's where things start to get dicey for the Jets. They have two potential losses on the offensive line staring them in the face. Conventional wisdom is that lines can keep a good continuity if they replace one player, but tend to suffer more when there's multiple changes to the line in a year when not immediately for the better … 2008 comes to mind when Faneca and Woody came as an obvious exception to the rule. Brick ranked 7th among all tackles and now Howard in his first year as a starter after being thrown in at the end of camp ranked 31st among all tackles (so top half of the league's starters) according to PFF. Mangold is locked but if the Jets had to choose one Guard to make a concerted effort at keeping, you'd have to imagine that the Jets would to do whatever they could to keep Slauson since he'll be the cheaper of the two and the team is cap strapped. Still, Slauson is nowhere nears as good at run blocking as Moore is and so the Jets will have to make some tough decisions. Keep lines of communication open, attempt to sign Moore first and then talk to Slauson as a secondary option.
On The Books
LT D'Brickashaw Ferguson — Brick had another solid year and played very well for the Jets, despite the team being in a down year. With Austin Howard not needing anywhere near as much help as Hunter did in 2011, Brick was able to play back to his normal levels — a top 10 Tackle in the league based on his pass blocking skill. Maintain level of productivity.
C Nick Mangold — One of the league's best run-blocking centers, Mangold is a special talent and the Jets are fortunate to have a Center play at his level for the last seven years. Maintain level of productivity.
RT Austin Howard — Howard was a player that many fans wanted to take on a larger role all along based on the rave reviews he drew from the Eagles faithful who saw him play in years past. Howard was a victim of the circumstance in Philly and the Jets have benefited greatly from it. The Jets need as many pieces like him in 2013 that are relatively inexpensive to keep for cap reasons, but have major impact on the team. To have Howard locked up at minimum level money on a pricey offensive line is a godsend. Focus him in offseason on his agility for his pass blocking and pencil him in as 2013 starter at RT.
OL Vlad Ducasse — No one wants to hear what I have to say, but with two Guards about to hit free agency and the Jets strapped for cash, there's only one scenario where I don't see Ducasse starting in 2013: the Jets draft a Guard early in the 2013 draft. The Jets won't be able to afford to get a competent starter via free agency, and they were giving reps to Ducasse all season long behind Slauson.
OL Caleb Schlauderaff — Mike Tannenbaum might have said his name more than anyone else in his last year and his fate might be the same as that of Tannenbaum solely for that reason. The Jets staff seems to see something in Slaud that we've not been able to see on the field much because of his spot on the roster. Maybe it's there but potentially three systems (and three OL coaches?) in three years might not be the best thing for him. We're sure that the GM will get eyes on his tape and footage and make a call on him. He might be a backup for the interior players this year, but whoever comes in might have some other roleplayer in mind. Unknown.
OL Dennis Landolt — Landolt is a guy that the Jets have had on and off their roster since 2011. The Jets must see something in him, but not enough yet to overly worry about protecting him as he was on and off the roster, and practice squad much of 2012. With the roster turning over at the top, this is likely a make or break spring for Landolt with the Jets.

- Questions or suggestions
1) Introduction
AFRINIC as company respects your privacy and is committed to protecting any personal information that you provide us in the course of our service or in any other context of our operations.
This privacy statement describes how AFRINIC collects, uses, and protects your personal information.
As the Regional Internet Registry (RIR) serving the African and Indian Ocean region, AFRINIC distributes Internet Number Resources comprising Internet protocol (IPv4 and IPv6) addresses and Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs). In so doing, AFRINIC collects personal information that is necessary to support its role as the RIR for the region. AFRINIC endeavors to ensure that all information it holds is accurate, complete, and up-to-date.
2) How your Personal Information is collected and used
AFRINIC collects personal information for the following reasons:
- to support Internet resource requests
- for account and billing purposes
- to administer meetings, training events, and other communication activities (such as mailing lists and the MyAFRINIC portal)
- to monitor network performance
- for recruitment
- for surveys, polls or elections
Each of these purposes is described below
2.1 Data used to support resource requests
Internet addresses are public resources. To ensure that these resources are managed responsibly, AFRINIC must collect a range of information including:
- Documentation of network infrastructure, plans, and customer details which demonstrate the need for addresses requested; and
- Personal information of people authorised by an organisation to request resources and maintain database entries.
AFRINIC collects such information from text forms that are submitted by email; web forms, on either the main AFRINIC website or the MyAFRINIC web portal; from general correspondence by phone, email, post, and fax; and from face-to-face meetings. AFRINIC uses this information to evaluate resource requests and administer member accounts. It may store some or all of this information for archival purposes, for tractability and for the purposes of validating or auditing resource allocations in future.
Some of the personal information you provide may be publicly registered in the AFRINIC WHOIS Database. This is limited to contact details relating to the allocation of specific public Internet resources. Please note that in relation to the network contact details, the AFRINIC WHOIS Database allows organisations to register "role objects" in place of personal details.
2.2 Data used for account and billing purposes
The AFRINIC Secretariat collects organisational and personal information for billing and account administration purposes. All AFRINIC members are required to provide an email address that will be included on a mailing list for membership-related announcements. This does not need to be a personal email address. AFRINIC does publish the names and URLs of AFRINIC member organisations on its main website but does not publish personal details relating to those members.
2.3 Data used for meetings, training, and communication activities (such as mailing lists and the MyAFRINIC portal)
In order to administer meetings, training sessions, and public discussion lists, it is necessary for AFRINIC Ltd to use registration forms and voluntary subscription procedures to collect the required information.
The information gathered by registration forms is used to help plan and conduct public meetings and training sessions. AFRINIC archives registration details to help plan future events and develop services. The information gathered by mailing list subscription procedures is used only in the mailing lists you specify.
AFRINIC provides simple online tools to allow you to manage your own subscription status on mailing lists.
Certain events such as AFRINIC meetings require photography and videography and such media may be used in AFRINIC publications or on the AFRINIC website. AFRINIC always takes necessary steps to inform event attendees that photography and videography may take place.
2.4 Data used to monitor network performance
AFRINIC logs certain technical data from visits to AFRINIC websites in order to analyse how the online services are used and how they perform. This is needed to maintain and develop services. No attempt is made to personally identify people who browse these websites, or build profiles of their browsing patterns.
In cases where AFRINIC online services are abused or attacked, AFRINIC may use the logged information to investigate the incidents or to deny further access to those responsible. AFRINIC does use "cookies". If you agree, the file is added and the cookie helps analyse Web traffic or assists with the provision of services. You can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer. If you set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, you will receive a warning message with each cookie. If you set your browser to reject cookies you may not be able to use some services on various sites.

In addition, AFRINIC maintains a high level of physical security and protection for all its computer and network facilities, and in particular for those in which personal information may be stored.

Only information that is normally publicly available is transferred in these downloads. The AFRINIC Secretariat does not share personal information which is collected from event registration forms, except when required for the management of the event or service in question. AFRINIC may publish a lists of meeting attendees on its website as part of its commitment to open and transparent policy development. However, only the name of the attendee and their organisation is listed. AFRINIC does not share any mailing list subscription details, although it may on occasion forward external messages to a particular mailing list if it is relevant and appropriate for that list.

Being admitted to the hospital is often a stressful time for a patient and his/her family, often unplanned and confusing. Samaritan Medical Center wants to make sure every patient's admission is as simple and positive as possible, regardless of how or why you are being admitted – through your doctor's office, from the Emergency Department, or after surgery.
Direct Admission (from your doctor's office) – Direct admissions are coordinated through the Registration area located on the 1st floor, adjacent to the parking garage. Please use the Registration entrance.
Emergency Department Admission – If you are being admitted through our Emergency Department, the hospital staff will handle all aspects of your admission from there.
Surgical Admission – If you are having a surgery that requires hospitalization afterward, you will be pre-registered before the day of your surgery, and staff will explain the entire process to you. On the day of your surgery, you can report directly to the Surgical Care Center by taking the Surgical Elevator (A) in the main hospital lobby.
Please be sure to bring all relevant documentation to ensure that the admission process is as seamless as possible. This includes your insurance card(s), photo identification, Health Care Proxy, and a list of your current medications. Please use our Patient Home Medication List for your own records to keep track of your medications. You can enter your medication information directly in this brochure and print or save it for your own records.
You will be given an identification bracelet that contains information needed for staff dedicated to providing you with the highest quality care. Please wear this bracelet at all times. We will ask you to sign a consent form (parents or guardians must sign for dependent minors and a legal or other responsible party will be asked to sign for patients who are unable to sign).

Midwest Living Review
Guests looking for a relaxing romantic lakeside retreat with plenty of privacy will appreciate innkeeper Linda Horn's attention to detail and hands-off treatment. The 1880 farmhouse is often described as Victorian, but its clean lines, oversize eaves and flatter roof make Italianate a better description. Bright blue siding, somewhere between aqua and azure, creates a feeling of whimsy. The landscaping -- including a winding brick pathway, plenty of wildflowers, a waterfall and koi pond -- is just as playful. Some seating areas, like the wrought-iron bench on the hillside or the hammock between the two "whispering" pines, are intimate. Others, like the hilltop fire pit for roasting s'mores or the cluster of brightly colored Adirondack chairs, are a touch more social. There are nine guest bedrooms tailored for romance. Each features a private bath, a two-person whirlpool tub (in the bedroom, not the bathroom), a sitting area, Bose music system and electric fireplace. Most have a private balcony or patio access. The range of amenities in the guest rooms is impressive. You'll get bath and beauty needs (spa robes, shampoo and soaps, make-up mirror, hair dryer, and separate towels for shower and tub), plus some nice conveniences (corkscrew and glasses, stereo, phone and Wi-Fi). Downstairs, there is a large sunroom that serves as the dining room, a game room, a butler's pantry and communal kitchen. Linda is friendly but more focused on making her guests' stay comfortable and complete than on getting to know visitors. From the umbrellas and slippers near the front door to the flashlights in the bedrooms, she seems to have planned for every need. Slips of paper with directions to just about every nearby attraction are available next to the maps, menus and pamphlets. With guests given the access code to the front door, there's no "I better not be out late or I'll upset the innkeeper" fear. Breakfast is anytime between 9 and 10:30. And it is a treat. Sitting at tables for two (or four) in the sunroom, you can watch the lake and not worry about chatting with other guests. Typical B&B morning offerings are done right here with fresh ingredients and made-to-order entrees. Specialty pancakes, waffles, French toast or an egg dish are possibilities. All are served with a side of bacon, sausage or ham. Pure Ohio maple syrup is on every table. Keep your fingers crossed for the banana crunch pancakes on your visit; they're good enough to please pancake-haters. The decor at Whispering Pines is somewhat confused. Antiques aficionados will appreciate the large collection of late-19th- and early-20th-century pieces, including a 600-piece glass top hat collection. But they might be disappointed to see these treasures overwhelmed by dated paint colors, loud wallpaper and mismatched (or misguided) accessories. From $179 to $245, depending on season.

This remix is amazingly remote from the original lilting, guitar-led sing-along. But its weird hard-to-pin tempo etc. is pretty great.
Christchurch indie-dance eclecticism, courtesy of the Mount Pleasant Bandcamp page.
Slow-building scuffed bliss pop singalong posted in February at XLR8R and also on Houses' Soundcloud.
A weirdly jagged ambient dub number, heavy on the dread, and available from NME of all places. Unique.
I've seen captchas with Chinese in them and Brahmic alphabets (can't tell you which, sorry) but maths formulae is surely the next level...

By COLLIN MCRANNSun Advocate reporter
East Carbon City has reviewed voter turnout and found that about 27 percent of the city participated in the recent primary election. Although this number is low, there will likely be a larger turnout for the final election on Nov. 3. However, during the city council's Sept. 22 meeting, the situation regarding the Public Safety Building and ambulance was discussed for further review.
The Sunnyside ambulance has been embroiled in difficult legal complications with the city of East Carbon. Although a committee between the two cities was formed during the last council meeting, the situation has not been resolved. If funding problems persist, Carbon County will step in and take over the service.
"I kind of get the impression that this has been going on for six to eight months. It's ridiculous," said Barbara Robinett, director of the ambulance service, during the meeting. "We need to come up with some different ways to fund the ambulance."
As for the Public Safety Building, post-construction complications have plagued the facility. Although a crack in the foundation was recently fixed, other problems have continued. A cascade machine needed to fill up firefighter's SCBA tanks for fires has been underpowered since electricity to the building is at 208 while a level of 240 is needed. A similar committee, with different council members between the two cities, has also been formed to consider these problems.
A justice court contract with Sunnyside City was also approved with fines divided at 60 percent going to East Carbon and 40 percent to Sunnyside for offenses that occur in Sunnyside.
Another ongoing issue is a drainage problem of Eigth West in East Carbon. The street is constantly flooded by rain storms. Although work has begun to remedy the situation, it has been hitting some snags.
"We talked about the last two storms and that was all the system could handle," said Councilman David Avery. "We need to get it fixed. We're running out of good weather."
Avery went on to inform the council that a telephone pole in the way has been a challenge because Rocky Mountain Power has thus far refused to move it.
Finally, approval was given for each city worker to have a pair of steel toed boots valued at $200 each. The city maintenance crew will attempt to make room in storage for an old fire truck that is on display for winter.
