CANTON A Massena man accused of having a sexual relationship with a teenage girl was one of five people indicted in different cases Thursday by two St. Lawrence County grand juries.
Robert L. Pitts Jr., 53, of 492 S. Main St., stands accused of endangering the welfare of a child, second-degree rape and second-degree course of sexual conduct against a child.
In four separate cases, a second grand jury indicted one man on drug charges and three people in driving while intoxicated cases.
Pitts was arrested in October after Massena police said they recovered a cellphone that provided information about an inappropriate relationship during an unrelated investigation into alleged trespassing by Pitts at Massena Metals. According to investigators, Pitts engaged in sexual activity with the girl, now 15, for two years.
He also was charged with third-degree criminal trespass and petit larceny in connection with an alleged theft of aluminium bars.
Those charges were not included in the indictment, and the status of that case could not be immediately confirmed Thursday.
Pitts, who was convicted of third-degree burglary in 2003 and grand larceny in 1983, was not eligible for bail when arraigned in Massena Village Court. He remained in the St. Lawrence County jail, Canton, Thursday pending further proceedings.
In other grand jury action:
Michael W. Phillips, 47, Chaumont, was indicted on three counts of third-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance and four counts of third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance. Investigators said Mr. Phillips sold cocaine in the town of Rossie on three dates from January to March.
Brendon C. Warren, 37, Brier Hill, was indicted on two counts of DWI. Investigators said he had a 0.11 percent blood alcohol content while driving on County Route 2 in Morristown on Dec. 17. A BAC of 0.08 percent or higher constitutes intoxication under state law.
Ernest G. Turnbull, 42, Canton, was charged with aggravated DWI and two counts of DWI. Investigators said he had a BAC of 0.20 percent while driving on a private road in Fowler on Feb. 7.
Aggravated DWI is charged when a drivers BAC is 0.18 percent or higher.
Frederick G. Beha, 48, Parishville, was charged with two counts each of DWI and aggravated DWI. Investigators said Mr. Beha had an 11-year-old child in the vehicle while driving with a BAC of 0.13 percent on Feb. 11 in Parishville.

Oregon farmers optimistic after Hep A outbreak: 'Local produce is fine'
EUGENE, Ore. - Over 4,000 bags of frozen berries potentially tainted with Hepatitis A were sold at Costcos across Oregon.
Lane County Public Health said 605 bags of the berry mix linked to the outbreak were sold here, the most of any county statewide.
The "Townsend Organic Farms - Organic Antioxidant Blend" berries were blended and packaged in Fairview, Oregon.
Nearly 40 cases of Hepatitis A have been linked to people eating the frozen fruits, so far none have been confirmed in Oregon.
Oregon State University specialist Ross Penhallegon said the public needs to understand the process of how crops become contaminated -- from farm to consumption.
"The number of people that touch it are unbelievable … how is it not contaminated?" Penhallegon said of the packaging process. "We need to be aware, we need to be concerned, but we need to understand what's also happening."
Robin Lee of Lee Farms said that while the outbreak is frightening to a lot of people, he doesn't think the contaminated berries will tarnish the reputation of Oregon's produce.
"The berries are good. Local produce is fine," Lee said.
Lane County Public Health recommends anyone who consumed the berries within the past two weeks to consult their health care provider.
Hepatitis A is an acute infectious disease of the liver caused by the Hepatitis A virus. It is usually spread by the fecal-oral route via ingestion of contaminated food or water but can also be spread through direct contact with an infectious person. The time between infection and the appearance of the symptoms is between two and six weeks with an average incubation period of 28 days.
Early symptoms of hepatitis A infection can be mistaken for influenza, but some sufferers, especially children, exhibit no symptoms at all.
Symptoms usually last less than 2 months, although some people can be ill for as long as 6 months.
Symptoms include:
- Fatigue
- Fever
- Nausea
- Appetite loss
- Jaundice (a yellowing of the skin or whites of the eyes)
- Dark amber colored urine
- Clay-colored feces

I ride the North East which means rocks roots and mud, and these pedals have been flawless. No issues clipping in or out on very muddy rides. Bashed them on rocks with no problems. They have always released when i wanted them to. The seals around the axle seems very tight and keep all the crap out.
One nice feature is that the float is separate from spring tension. Meaning you get the same amount of float no matter how much force you choose to have to use to release. Unlike other pedals.
If i had to do it again, i would still buy these pedals. highly recommended.

EDWARDS Muskets boomed in Edwards on Saturday as the town celebrated 200 years of history since its founding.
The area was first settled alongside a military road in 1812, and soldiers would sometimes camp nearby. Those soldiers were represented during Saturdays celebrations by the reenactors of Ogdensburgs Forsyths Rifles Inc.
Edwards officially became a town in 1827.
Performers, vendors and families gathered in the Lions Club Field for a full day of events designed to showcase life in the 1800s. Children could participate in their own military muster, or learn games from the past. The Lions Club held a chicken barbecue, and vendors arrived from all around.
Each organization in town did whatever they did to make it a good day, said town historian LaVerne H. Freeman.
The town board began to plan the events early last fall. Various organizations chipped in money to line the streets with flags saying Welcome to Edwards, Est. 1812.
The festivities coincided with the annual town-wide yard sale. Tents and blankets lined the streets of Edwards as shoppers wandered from sale to sale.
Some people were selling items from their homes, while others came from the surrounding community hoping to sell their wares.
Its actually been very busy, according to Carrie A. Foster, who came from Hermon to participate in the event.
The town decided to hold the anniversary celebrations alongside the annual sale.
Thats almost history in and of itself, the annual yard sale, said Linda L. Perry, vice president of the town of Edwards Historical Association.
While the yard sale has been going on for years, the bicentennial celebrations drew in potential customers from farther away than ever before, B. Gail Whitmarsh said. Ms. Whitmarsh makes and sells jewelry, and has participating in the yard sale for 11 years.
Every year I meet someone different, she said. This year drew people from as far away as Fine or Watertown.
You see people you havent seen in years, Ms. Whitmarsh said. By MARTHA ELLEN

Easton's Playback Trainer Elite features a patented improved adjustable hinge for multiple training options: ground balls, line drives, and pop flies.
Size: 48" W x 72" H
Initial shipment contained wrong product. I liked very much that correct product was sent next business day when notified of problem. You did not wait until wrong product was returned. Very classy.
I haven't had it very long, but I love it so far
Pros: Easy setup, track your order, sturdy, good product!
Cons: Cost
Bottom Line: I would recommend to a friend
Excellent quality. Very helpful that it is free standing and you don't need weights or spikes to drive into the ground to keep it stable.
Great product for my 7 and 16 year old kids.
Purchase was a referral from Tammy Gozdiff in Harrison, Ohio, who recently purchased a smaller version for their son.
Great product. Very sturdy, I did however have some problem with assembly. The rubber bands used to hold the net can be very difficult to attach and at times pop off during play. I now have mine rigged using those plastic handcuff bands/ties (you can get at Home Depot) in addition to the rubber bands that come with it (attach rubber band to net then attach handcuff plastic tie to other end of rubber band and attach tie to the frame - don't attach tie to the net as it may break the net)-- it has worked great since then - no chance for pop offs and it makes the attachment process easier and pulls as taught as you need it. Also, I have had some difficulty changing the angle of the frame. One hinge seems to move far easier than the other. I think this is just a problem with the hinge on one side of mine. Overall, this is the best one I have seen and I've looked at a ton! My kid loves it and it's great for when he has no one to throw with -- if your kid is like mine - he may have the potential to develop obsessibe compulsive disorder with it -- it really is great.

Class of 1979
Offensive Tackle >>> 6-4, 250
(Southern California)
1960-1969 Los Angeles/San Diego Chargers, 1971 Oakland Raiders
Ronald Jack Mix. . .Picked AFL over Colts, who drafted him No. 1. . . All-AFL tackle eight times, once as guard. . .In eight AFL All-Star, five AFL title games. . .Consistent, finely-conditioned, intense with excellent speed, strength. . .Noted for quick charge, accomplished blocking on both passing, running plays. . .Had only two holding penalties in 10 years . . .Nicknamed "The Intellectual Assassin". . . Born March 10, 1938, in Los Angeles, California.
The most amazing aspect of the Ron Mix story is that he played football at all. In high school, he really wanted to play baseball, was fairly successful in track but somehow ended up playing football, a sport he really didn't like.
Ron did well enough to earn a scholarship to the University of Southern California. With the Trojans, he put on some weight, became an excellent offensive tackle, and attracted the attention of scouts from both the National Football League and the new American Football League.
Since the Los Angeles Chargers offered a better contract, Mix opted for the AFL. The fact that he would be playing in his hometown was of little consequence because he intended to play only long enough "to get a start in life, just a year or two."
But as his development as a player continued, he realized he was really enjoying the game, and decided to stick around. A good student who continued his education eventually earning a law degree, Ron was nicknamed "The Intellectual Assassin."
He was also a student of the game. On passing plays, he would pop out at his opponent at the moment of the center snap, hit him, drive him back and continue to attack until the pass was in the air. On running plays, his uncanny balance enabled him to take out the defensive end with a chopping block and proceed downfield where he could wipe out the cornerback.
During his 10 years with the Chargers he was assessed for only two holding penalties. He was an All-AFL selection eight times as a tackle and once as a guard, and played in eight AFL All-Star games and five of the first six AFL title games. He was unanimously chosen for the AFL's all-time team in 1969.

USU-CEU's Gallery East will present People, Places and Things Along US - 89, a Utah Arts Council Traveling Exhibition. Through a series of black and white photographs, this exhibition highlights the unique, unusual, and extraordinary things found along this historic highway. People, Places, and Things will be exhibited from Oct. 4 through Nov. 4.
These 30 remarkable black & white images were selected from the larger collection of 60 photographs in John Telford's 503-mile photo tour of US Highway 89 in Utah. US-89 is one of our country's oldest and longest North-South running highways, stretching from Canada to Mexico. The highway passes the historic homes of internationally famous painter Maynard Dixon, sculptor Avard Fairbanks, and outlaw Butch Cassidy.
The prints in this exhibition tell their stories. The show also includes travel essays by Utah writers.
Gallery East director Noel Carmack observes that, although this group of photographs visually documents other areas of Utah, the people and places are not unlike those found in Carbon and Emery counties. "These are the same kind of friendly, hard-working people found here in our communities."

On Sept. 7, a detective with the Carbon County Sheriff's Office was conducting an investigation into a complaint involving missing copper in the local area.
During the course of the investigation, a suspect vehicle was located by Detective Roger Taylor at a private residence in south Price.
Several subjects of interest identified in connection with the missing copper investigation were subsequently located inside the residence of Donald Pasborg, indicated the county sheriff's office.
After a brief interview with the suspects, law enforcement officials placed Cody Hardman and Kristy Berneche under arrest on felony theft, criminal trespass, possession of burglary tools and unlawful possession/use of a controlled substance charges.
With the assistance of Carbon Metro Drug Task Force and Utah Department of Corrections adult probation officers, more than two ounces of suspected methamphetamine were reportedly discovered in the Pasborg residence, noted a statement issued by the county law enforcement department.
The street value of the suspected methamphetamine was estimated at $5,000.
In addition to the suspected illicit controlled substance, investigators located various items reported as missing in connection with several local burglary incidents at the Pasborg residence, indicated the county sheriff's office.
Pasborg was subsequently arrested on possession of/with the intent to distribute a controlled substance, possession/use of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, unlawful possession of prescription medication and possession of stolen property charges.
In connection with a separate investigation, agents from the Carbon Metro Drug Task Force conducted an undercover operation and seized three ounces of suspected methamphetamine on Sept. 9.
The week-long underground operation was conducted with the assistance from the Price City Police Department and the Carbon County Sheriff's Office.
The street value of the suspected methamphetamine was estimated at $7,000, pointed out the statement issued by the county sheriff's office.
Due to the teamwork of the agencies involved in the two incidents and assistance from citizens, a significant amount of suspected methamphetamine was removed from the community and several burglary suspects were apprehended, concluded the county sheriff's office.

Mr Roger's Return From The Hood - Pt V
Posted on February 12, 2008Welcome to Part V of Mr. Roger's Return To The Hood - words from Ill Nino's percussionist Roger Vasquez...It is Friday, December 21st, a mere 4 days before Christmas. Ill Nino is back in NY from their first ever tour of Europe...which means that Roger is back in the hood. So, how was this virgin European experience? Roger's words are as follows:
"Cheers, ya? This is Roger, ya? I'm back in the hood, kickin it live, very happy to be back in the homeland.
Although, on the real, Europe has become our second home. In my eyes, everything about Europe was memorable, much like the first time I masturbated - I didn't know what to expect, but in the end it was all good in the hood, if ya know what I mean...
Yo, I wanna drop a big up to Machine Head, those are our true brothers. They gave us mad respect and the knowledge & guidance they showed us was the shit. It will definitely never be forgotten - much love to those brothers.
The fans were totally the shit, they were fuckin each other up at shows, much like the Christmas parties at my house when mom brings out pernil and pastelitos...you know that shit is gonna get dogged up. No doubt.
All in all, everything about Europe was a memorable moment, BUT, one of the craziest shit to happen to me and my brothers (Ill Nino) was the crazy ass plane ride from Newark to Germany.
The Airport - For one, we get to Newark airport straight from the previous show in Detroit, which by the way ruled. Now Newark ain't the happiest airport in the world right now, know what I'm sayin'? And to have Ill Nino walkin up in there was like bringin hookers to church for confession...It ain't gonna happen (by the way, Ill Nino don't like flyin'). After security checks, anal cavity checks, dental checks & bounced checks, they finally decided to let us up in on this bitch. So we're all loungin' in the plane, gettin our drink on, waiting for the take-off of what would come to be known as the flight from hell (by the way, Ill Nino don't like flyin').
The Weather - Did I mention there was a big ass rain storm up in this mother? Shit, Moses could've parted the seas with all the water that was droppin'. No doubt. We was lookin at each other wonderin how the hell did we get into this one? Much like when a crack deala gets his cream cropped, you know the brotha is gonna be crazy mad...and this storm was indeed a crack deala (by the way, did I mention Ill Nino don't like flyin'?).
Take-Off - We were in the air not just 2 minutes when this dildo with wings starts vibrating all over the place (turbulence). It was like this bitch just got brand new Energizer batteries, I mean it was squirmin', and the rain was makin her wet.
The Flight - "Make mine a double...as a matter of fact, make everyone's a double" I was shittin bricks, cement, mortar, you know what I'm sayin...this plane shook for almost 2 hours straight - Mother Nature was pushing all the right buttons on this bitch, and she was squealin. No doubt. After all that craziness, they started servin us food (plane food). It was like eatin G.G. Allin's underwear...it was not righteous. I passed on the grub. I passed out, all drunk n' shit. When I woke up, I was in Germany (schiezer).
Praise the almighty god Ozzy, we made it down.
Europe, thanks once again for the great times and the hospitality - it was well worth the trip. To the Roadrunner staff in Europe, you guys are the shit. And to Machine Head, thanks once again for this experience...can't wait to see you guys again and share a brown-eye.
Next, we're back out with Kittie. So look out for the madness.
Peace in the middle east, Roger 'Babaloo' Vasquez"
Roger, thanks once again for the update. For the rest of you, know that Ill Nino's stay at home was brief, as they are back out on the road already with Kittie and Chimaira and come March will be hitting the road with Drowning Pool.

GOUVERNEUR Gouverneur Town Court has improved security after two defendants created a scene in the courtroom earlier this month.
Ryan M. Weir, 31, of 271-A Talcville Road, Edwards, and Bryant R. Depompe, 25, of 336 County Route 11, Gouverneur, were each charged with disorderly conduct and second-degree criminal contempt March 7 after they refused to calm down and obey the instructions of St. Lawrence County deputies who were in the courtroom in the village municipal building.
It got out of control, Mayor Ronald P. McDougall said. Our police chief is an ex-Marine so we got control. We are going to have order.
The courtroom was packed with about 75 people or more and there was a problem with crowd control, Sheriff Kevin M. Wells said.
To improve security, the courtroom was rearranged so that the bench is adjacent to judicial chambers, town Supervisor Robert R. Ritchie said.
Chairs in the gallery were swung around and a separate area was made for prisoners apart from visitors where the judges bench used to be.
The court is a function of town government but is held in the village municipal building.
A private consultation area for attorneys to meet with clients will be in the former firefighter recreation room across from the courtroom. Attorneys and others will no longer be allowed to mill around the judges office unless invited. On high volume court days, village police will provide security.
We havent made a formal agreement but its already been instituted, Mr. McDougall said.
Other busy courts also have security, Sheriff Wells said.
Ogdensburg City Court has security provided through the Office of Court Administration. In Massena, a retired village police officer provides courtroom security.
We do not expect any more problems, Sheriff Wells said. Im more than pleased with the town and village.

I am going to start a new RP, I am taking suggestions because my last one kinda sucked.
So, I am going to craft a RP from Fellow user's suggestions.
I am going to start a new RP, I am taking suggestions because my last one kinda sucked.
So, I am going to craft a RP from Fellow user's suggestions.
Umm go in www.thewrestlinggame.com, Join a server with federations, join a federation, RP a whole match and so on and on...
butsrsly, I wish I could get into the RPing but it seems so closed off to people who aren't in the "circle" or something of that extent, not to mention that the section seems to be near death.. I don't want to start any myself, but I would love to join any. Regardless of it's success, I would like to join if you do start one!
I know i was trying to keep that post count as long as possible lol. But no, anyone can RP. Just read the rules, check the post dates, and follow in the experts examples. Llwelyn, Screenfox, AoiRozengirl, people in The Tales of Amn are ridiculously good. to keep an RP going that long. Read up on old RP's to learn the basics. Don't copy them though, and no necroing old threads like a noob. Yeah, if anyone else wants to start an RP, then post.
Well, hopefully I'll be able to check it out. The RP section hasn't even been touched in almost a week, though.. and the most recent post was completely unrelated to RPing.
Try to be as original as possible Zoilist ^^. The more you have something more or less new in your RP, the better you'll gather people who want to try it out. For example something like "Fallout RP" can attract people but it's only going to work for those who have actually played the game. That's why it would be better if you could take some of the ideas of Fallout and shape them so that you can create something new. That way people who have never played or even heard of Fallout can join the RP since they don't need prior knowledge.
Also something for you to ponder about: I always start creating my RPs with the intention of sharing a story with other people. I also want the people to affect the story so that they gain a foothold in the RP, that will help them to actually stay and become dedicated to the RP. You also have a big responsibility as the creator to keep the RP running. A nice metaphor which I've used a few times is that the other RPers can only lubricate the gears, the creator him-/herself has to make them turn. So if the RP is starting to slow down too much, don't be afraid to take charge and jump forward.
Know that I'm not an expert or anything ^^. I just listed the things I usually do and so far they've proven successful. Good luck making that RP! I'll be sure to check it out if it pops up!
@SqueezyTime: By the way, I don't believe there are any secret "circles" around here ^^. The only thing that could be called a circle is the group I lead but that's dedicated to a single RP. The board has become pretty quiet though. It usually happens around this time of year but this has been going for a long time now. Hopefully it'll become livelier once schools start again.
Well, I have these idea for a roleplay, which includes various elements from various movies and video games. Here are some of them: Game Terminal- Avatar the Movie, it enables the player for this instance, the RPer, to control his desired game character. Parkour Movement and agile fighting style- Assassin's Creed Series. It's all in my head, I just can't put it in words. I am currently imagining the spawn oint for the new players and how I will be the instructor. I am also thinking the ranking system by colored masks and design. I hope I can get this out of my head soon.
Inspiring quotes from game characters:
"My story is one of many thousands, the world will not suffer if it ends too soon"
-Ezio Auditore da Firenze
"As Vladimir would say... 'You can only die once, so make sure it's worth it'"
-Dimitri "Dima" Mayakovsky
Ah The Almighty Takesh posts in my humble thread lol. Thanks for the advice. Manic, I like your idea, I might just use some elements of that. I was thinking more like the movie gamer, rather than avatar. Perhaps instead of assassins creed like movement and combat, A more original movement system. The player could choose a mask, but the armor that the character wears would be improved like so. These are my takes on your ideas, may the brainstorming continue.
"The Almighty" ? Haha! Good one ^^. Glad to be of assistance. Don't be afraid to ask if you need any help!
I see you already have some good ideas. Keep it up and you'll have a hot topic RP in a jiffy ^^.
I also thought of a plot, I don't know how to make it into a good one but the foundations is in here:
"On the year (Put futuristic year here), the world was at war they were divided into two parts. The southern part of the world is a war hungry people, attacking the Northern Part of the world. The Southern Part was more on people less on tech and north was more on tech and less on people. They found out a way to protect there people using a new game, called " The Guild of Dis'ii " The game provided a realistic view of their apocalyptic world and in no time it was the most famous thing ever talked about. " You can add more stuff but that is the main thing I thinking about. I also think the classes should be - Protector, Colossus, Shadow, Jaguar, Caliber and Javelin. The classes will be explained later. The starting scene would be the start of training, it's either me or you will be the main trainer and the other one will be the assistant. I think you should be because you have nicer role playing skills than mine.

Cardinals RED for Kids is the Cardinals version of the popular office casual or "dress down" days. The Cardinals are asking organizations to allow their employees to dress casual and wear red for a day to show support for the Cardinals while donating to Cardinals Care.
It is a great way for fans to rally their support for the Cardinals while helping kids in our community. Schools are also encouraged to participate in Cardinals RED for Kids, but are not required to make a donation to get involved.
We are asking organizations to encourage their employees to dress down and wear red to show their support for the Cardinals.
It is a great way to support the team and help kids!
We would like each organization to designate a team leader (the head of Human Resources for instance), who will take responsibility for organizing a dress red day(s) at their respective organization.
The idea started with the best and most generous fans in baseball. Some local groups organized fundraisers to help Cardinals Care help the children of Joplin this past season as part of the Teams Unite for Joplin effort. Mayor Slay took the lead in organizing a drive on behalf of city workers, while a team from Shop N' Save stepped up to help too. During the 2011 Postseason, the employees at Bunge North America, Inc. raised over $6000 in donations!

President Barack Obama and failed Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney will meet today for the first time since the election for a private lunch at the White House.
During his victory speech, Obama told supporters that he would meet with Romney so that the two could share ideas about how Republicans and Democrats could possibly work together in order to tackle some of the biggest issues facing the Nation.
"In the weeks ahead, I also look forward to sitting down with Governor Romney to talk about where we can work together to move this country forward," Obama said.
The Associated Press reports that the two have no clear agenda for the meeting but alludes to possible discussion about the looming fiscal cliff and what to do about the soon-expiring tax cuts passed by President George W. Bush. During the campaign season, Obama and Romney contrasted sharply on the issue of the cuts as the President's Republican challenger disavowed the Administration's plan to allow the cuts to expire.
The President has in recent weeks embarked on a post-campaign campaign of sorts in an attempt to ease Republican dissent against his tax plan.
"Right now, as we speak, Congress can pass a law that would prevent a tax hike on the first $250,000 of everybody's income. Everybody's. And that means that 98 percent of Americans and 97 percent of small businesses wouldn't see their income taxes go up by a single dime. Ninety-eight percent of Americans, 97 percent of small businesses would not see their income taxes go up by a single dime," Obama said at the White House Wednesday.
Meanwhile, Congressional Republicans launched a series of attacks against the President for his continued campaigning about taxes even after the election has finished.
"Rather than sitting down with lawmakers of both parties and working out an agreement he is back on the campaign trail presumably with the same old talking points that we are all quite familiar with," Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said on the Senate floor last week, alluding to Obama plans to talk about taxes with business owners throughout the Nation. "We already know the president is a very good campaigner. We congratulate him on his re-election. What we don't know is whether he has the leadership qualities necessary to lead his party to a bipartisan agreement on big issues like we currently face."

I've always thought I would make a heck of a hillbilly. But I's born in New York City (get 'da rope) and really like blogging more than livin' in the holler. Where there may/may not be wireless. So I will have to stay a mental hillbilly. Which gives me nothin' on this guy, Shelby Stanga:
Shelby Stanga might be a television personality, but you won't find him living in luxury. The swamp logger prefers to sleep in a sleeping bag and hammock next to a boat launch on the Tangipahoa River.
Stanga has recently become a bit of a star thanks to the History Channel's show Ax Men, which features him and four other logging companies around the country.
Stanga, as the show chronicles, pulls ancient sinker logs out of the Bedico Swamp in Tangipahoa Parish. Between 1850 and 1944, the swamp around Tangipahoa River and its creeks and bayous was milled extensively.
The old-growth trees, most of which are cypress, were felled and floated down the creek to Lake Pontchartrain and used in home construction in New Orleans.
This last week, Shelby had his blond cousin Cheyenne Bardwell out helping him. He runs through helpers, whether they get injured or just get tired of the back-breaking work. His wife even came out on the swamp with him once. That was a hoot:
With new missions into parts of the swamp never seen before, Shelby will stop at nothing to save his sinking empire.
To help, he's enlisting the help of the most colorful characters in the swamp: "Cajun leprechaun" Davie, Tracy "Hog Man" Hickman, cousin Kelly, swamp girl Cheyenne and even sometimes-estranged wife Donna Stanga. And, of course, his pal Piss Willy.
Ah, so Cheyenne is not his cousin, but a "swamp girl?" Roger that.
Watch the show for a good chuckle. Fast forward through the father and son river loggers. They only argue. And stop at Shelby. He is the real-deal. At least to this mental hillbilly. . .

CANTON Even though the St. Lawrence University football team already has two wins, after a winless 2012 season, the Saints are not satisfied.
For new SLU quarterback Mike Lefflbine, a junior from Greenwich, Conn., losing is not something that is acceptable.
Lefflbine was part of a state championship team as a high school player and, after spending his first two years at Sacred Heart, an NCAA Division I FCS school, he is now directing the Saints offense.
Hes helped the Saints to a 2-1 start after the nonconference portion of the schedule. SLU defeated Coast Guard 21-17 and beat Norwich 14-3 before falling last weekend 28-23 at SUNY Morrisville.
The Saints open Liberty League play Saturday with a 1 p.m. game at Union College in Schenectady.
The fact we won our first two games, we know what it takes and what we need to do to get better, Lefflbine said. Even the (SUNY Morrisville) game, I thought we should have won. We are still learning and still progressing each week. Weve got to get better.
Lefflbine, who never played at Sacred Heart, has been proficient for SLUs offense. Through three games he has completed 57.1 percent of his passes for 615 yards with five touchdowns and two interceptions.
Hes done a good job, SLU coach Mark Raymond said. He came here in January and he stepped up right away as a leader. He learned the offense and really endeared himself to a lot of the players on both sides of the football. He has a lot of leadership ability.
Some might think winning two games, after going winless a year ago, would be satisfying for the Saints.
But Raymond and Lefflbine both feel this is a team that can compete, and they are hoping to add many more wins to the total in conference play.
Everyone here wants to win, Lefflbine said. That first loss really hurt the team. But at the same time I think it was good for the team. We have to go into league play hungry. If we won that game we probably could have gotten a little complacent. Since we lost, well get back on track.
What should concern SLUs future opponents is the Saints have shown the potential to be better than their 2-1 start indicates.
SLU had to rally with a late drive to beat Coast Guard in the opener, but the Saints had several chances to put that game away in the first half and failed to capitalize.
The Saints also had chances to turn the 14-3 win at Norwich into a bigger margin and missed a few chances to take a big lead early last weekend at Morrisville.
Part of (finishing drives struggles) is we had some penalties, Raymond said. We have a lot of new guys up front and if you make some mistakes they are very evident, especially (inside the 20). This past Saturday against Morrisville we were much better and we improved on that. If we can improve every week, thats what we have to do. The run game needs to get better and that will come as our offensive line is able to gel. We havent even come close to starting the same five guys these first three games. As we get better up front, well have more opportunities.
This group here, they prepare very well and they know they have the ability to do things. We just need to eliminate mistakes. If we are going to continue to succeed, its got to come from us eliminating mistakes.
One reason for SLUs winning start has been the play of the teams defense, which is allowing only 16 points a game and has a plus-eight turnover margin.
In our first game, we wouldnt have come back if it wasnt for our defense, Lefflbine said. I have to credit the defense for what we do. We are plus-eight right now and its a focal point of our team. We want to get it higher. It gives us more of an opportunity to win and when the defense creates turnovers, we have to capitalize on those turnovers.

Flights to Paphos from Europe
Flights from Paphos
Take a trip back in time to the wonders of Ancient Greece and marvel at Greek theatres, market places and a number of Roman villas in this UNESCO listed site. Check out the remarkably preserved mosaics, which give you a real taste of ancient life.Address: Apostolou Pavlou Ave, Kato PafosPhone: +357 26306217Website: http://www.visitpafos.org.cy
This vast burial ground houses the tombs of some of the leading nobility and citizens of Ancient Greece. The tombs, which are hewn into the island bedrock, are quite a sight.Address: Tombs of the Kings Ave, Kato PafosPhone: +357 26306295Website: http://www.visitpafos.org.cy
No visit to Pafos would be complete without stopping by the Odeon, an original Greek amphitheatre. Marvel at the construction and the acoustics and, if you're lucky, maybe catch a modern production – a once in a lifetime experience, we promise you.Address: Apostolou Pavlou Ave, Kato PafosPhone: +357 26306217Website: http://www.visitpafos.org.cy
The church was built in the 13th century over the ruins of the largest Early Byzantine basilica on the island. St Paul's pillar is situated in the church courtyard, where according to the legend the Apostle was flogged before converting the Roman governor Sergius Paulus to Christianity.Address: Stasandrou StrPhone: +357 26306217Website: http://www.visitpafos.org.cy
This peninsula is in the westernmost tip of Cyprus and Pafos is its nearest city. It's a region of untouched natural beauty made up of wild landscapes, deep gorges and beautiful deserted beaches. The perfect place to explore and unwind.Address: Akamas PeninsulaWebsite: http://www.visitpafos.org.cy
Ideal sea temperatures, clear waters and rich coastal reefs Paphos is located in the west of Cyprus and is one of the main diving hubs of the country. Cyprus lies in the crossroads of three continents which gives the country its unique atmosphere of east meets west. Clear seas and warm waters make Pafos ideal for diving. Sea temperatures around the island range from 27 to 16 ºC, resulting in one of the longest diving seasons in the Mediterranean, while the absence of plankton makes for great visibility. The underwater coastal reefs teem with a wide variety of colourful fish, sponges, coral, sea anemones, octopus, mussels and the ubiquitous sea urchin providing a spectacular picture. Sea turtles can be spotted regularly, thanks to a turtle conservation project that has increased their numbers around the island considerably. Spectacular underwater caves and tunnels and a number of interesting paths are just waiting to be explored, while the remains of ancient amphora and stone anchors make it a veritable adventure. Akamas National Park lies 12km west of Paphos and is home to some excellent dive sites with lots of marine life. The whole area is a marine park so is a protected area from fishing which is why the marine life here is so abundant compared to the Cyprus reefs just a short distance away. St Georges Island in the Akamas is one of the only deep wall dives in the area and caters for all levels of experience. As you are swimming along the wall its worth taking time to explore any recesses and overhangs for the marine life hiding there and see if you can find a hidden octopus or tiny critters such as colourful nudibranchs. Another site in the Akamas is Lara Valley which offers overhangs, crevasses and if you are lucky there is a chance of even spotting a turtle around here during the breeding season. Nearer to Paphos one relatively easy but stunning underwater geological feature is the Amphitheatre which is a naturally formed amphitheatre at the shallow 9-12m. The shallow depth and rock formation create some very pretty light effects and is a great spot for photographs. Open water (OW) qualification required. Access is from the shore just past the headland at Coral Bay, a short walk down the rocks. This is a particularly popular dive, ranging from 4 metres to some 12 metres. It takes its name from the natural formation resembling an amphitheatre that was cut out of the rock by sea currents. Besides the magnificent rock formations, there is an abundance of marine life to admire, including groupers, eels and cuttlefish. Last but not list divers can experience the unique Amphorae Caves. A famous dive to a depth up to 12 meters. There are some caves to explore, including one with the top-encrusted amphorae. A team of American archaeologists who investigated this region feel that this was created by movements in the sea over the past two thousand years
With par facilities in beautiful surroundings, Pafos is the latest destination on the golfing map, a place where you can play the game all year round. There are five top class golf courses in the Pafos region, while a few others currently under construction. Situated in peaceful surroundings amidst landscaped hills with spectacular views, these offer luxury villas or apartments for rent or sale, clubhouses, shops, hotels and all the necessary facilities. They are far from the hustle and bustle of the main tourist resorts, yet near enough for easy access
Pafos is where Aphrodite emerged from the gentle waves on the island's south western coast, and made her home in this region. Pafos itself is a leading cultural centre of the Mediterranean, with fascinating archaeological sites, museums and more. In the nearby Akamas Peninsula and inland region there are beautiful monasteries, picturesque villages such as Neo Chorio and nature trails. Further north near the Akamas peninsula and the Baths of Aphrodite lies the resort-town of Polis, overlooking the beautiful Chrysochou Bay with its charming fishing refuge of Latsi. The relatively unspoilt state of the countryside and villages make the area a real delight for the walker and naturalist. East of Polis you come across such villages as Pomos and Pyrgos that lie on beautiful rocky cliffs and rocky beaches. Rural Pafos is a destination that combines ideal weather conditions, diverse accommodation and catering facilities that are in operation all year round, beautiful country side, historical sights, cultural activities, Byzantine treasures, natural wilderness, picturesque village and more. The region is easily accessible from other local cities with good road network as well as good air connections from many European cities. The long and stormy history of Pafos is as interesting as its scenery. The natural beauties, the rich flora, the fertile land, the picturesque mountain and hill villages, the living legends, the traditional products, the folk art and handicraft and above all the simple, warm and hospitable people. All these compose the portrait of Pafos, a region with "a good reason for all seasons". Spring and summer are ideal times of the year to visit archaeological sites, relax in the countryside, experience unique cultural events such as fairs associated with local products, taste traditional food with seasonal produce, or explore nature. Pafos is a paradise for nature lovers, birdwatchers and botanist. In addition this time of the year is perfect for swimming, sunbathing, and a whole range of water sports from scuba diving to sailing. Fall and winter bring the possibility of rain but still an average of six hours bright sunshine a day. At this time, the countryside changes colour and the vineyards take on gold. Inland excursions, visits heritage sites, museums and handicrafts, practice cycling, trekking, hiking or explore and experience first hand the village life is what is highly recommended and not to be missed. Diverse accommodation and catering facilities that are in operation all year round, easy accessibility from other local cities, good road network as well as good air connections with the most European cities, all contributing to a unique destination with distinctive characteristics and an ideal region to experience all year round.
The history of winemaking in Cyprus is very old, one of the oldest in the world. Recent excavations by Italian archaeologists have revealed the sensational truth that in this small island the production of wine dates back some 6000 years.This cultural heritage is the oldest in the whole Mediterranean basin and leads to the assumption that Cyprus triggered the spread of winemaking to Greece, Italy, France and other regions. There is an abundance of archaeological findings which provide ample evidence that viticulture activities in Cyprus date back to the depths of time. There are unique ancient mosaics portraying god Dionysus (Bacchus), very old wine-presses at the villages of Omodos, Lania and elsewhere and amphorae and other wine-related pots crowding the island's archaeological museums. They are all tangible proof of Cyprus' viticulture history through the centuries, testaments of an awe-inspiring heritage in winemaking. Studies indicate that the grape varieties in Cyprus are some of the oldest in the world. Fashions change however and Cyprus has had to adapt its wine industry. Foreign varieties, like Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache, Carignan Noir, Chardonnay and Semillon, have been successfully introduced in the past 20 years and are used for blending with the local varieties, as well as producing small quantities of "varietal" wines.
Laona - Akamas Wine Route Evocative region with rugged coastlines and charming little villages, oozing with culture and lush vines, with rustic and contemporary elements nesting side by side. Situated in the western shores of Cyprus, villages such as Drouseia, Ineia, Kathikas, Pano and Kato Arodes invite you to visit their windswept vineyards. To get to know the Xynisteri, an indigenous grape variety that grows in a climate tempered by the sea breeze, offering cool yet solid wines with a fine aroma, most probably among the best white wines produced in Cyprus. These and other destinations of the route also invite you to sample the rare Maratheftiko, one of the best red wine varieties of Cyprus. Kilada Diarizou Wine Route A fascinating journey along the Diarizos river, through beautifully unspoiled green surroundings, decked with picturesque vineyards and attractive scenery. The Diarizos valley is the least known wine producing region in Cyprus. Its altitude, at a lower level compared to the other wine growing areas, and the dominance of the local Mavro grape variety, have kept it for years away from the wine scene. However, with the creation of many small wine making units and the introduction of modern vine cultivation, the Diarizos region has transformed into a competitive wine producing area of great promise. Get to know the region and enjoy its striking tranquil scenery, the genuine hospitality of the local people and the pleasurable delights of its expanding wine trade. Vouni Panagias - Ambelitis A Wine Route Panoramic excursion into a glorious inland landscape, accompanied by the delights of the locally produced wines. In the western part of the island, in the district of Pafos (Paphos), at an altitude over 800 metres, the route Vouni Panagias - Ambelitis offers an unparalleled wine experience. The wineries are numerous, the diverse pleasures of equal magnitude. The local Xynisteri grape variety stands out once more, offering white wines of particular finesse in smell and lightness in body. A taste of green apples, peaches and apricots overflows from the glasses of the Xynisteriots of the area. Additionally, red fruit, violets and roses enrich the other local grape, Maratheftiko, which is also cultivated here. In the villages of this route and especially the Vouni Panagias, Chrysorrogiatissa and Statos - Agios Fotios, you will discover also some the best wines of the indigenous Mavro grape which benefits from the relatively high altitude and a mild climate, offering pleasant dark and rose wines Vouni Panagias - Ambelitis B Wine Route Panoramic excursion into a glorious inland landscape, accompanied by the delights of the locally produced wines.

History The history of the Loukoumi Geroskipou and Koufeta Amygdalou Geroskipou begins in 1895. Throughout the years and the standing of time, the products' reputation surpassed the Cypriot boundaries and are now exported to many countries worldwide while visitors to Geroskipou and Paphos always seek to buy the products to take back home with them. More importantly, they are the first products to be granted the protected Geographical Indication (PGI) by the European Union and so the Loukoumi Geroskipou and Koufetta Amygdalou Geroskipou are now recognized worldwide and heavily promoted by the European Union. Loukoumi Geroskipou The Loukoumi Geroskipou is a confectionary product with sugar being its main ingredient. It has a jello texture, intense sweet taste and it is shaped small cubes. The product is offered in various flavours and packages which vary according to the added aroma. It is offered covered with icing sugar or desiccated coconut topping. Nuts, or/and honey, or/and bitter chocolate can be added to the product during production. The difference between Loukoumi Geroskipou from other similar products with other names is its vigour, elasticity and reduced sweetness. Also no glucose or gelatine are used in the production of the Loukoumi Geroskipou. It is mainly served as a dessert, coffee accompaniment, wedding treat or as a treat in various events. Koufetta Amygdalou Geroskipou The second Cypriot Product after Loukoumi Geroskipou to be awarded with PGI.

Training books, YouTube videos and an exceptional study habit have helped Shayne Watson evolve into one of the areas top divers.
A third-year diver, the Watertown High School senior is undefeated in the Frontier League and has posted the leagues top diving score of 225.22 points this season.
The Cyclones (7-0 overall and league) are on track for their fourth consecutive undefeated season and will vie for their fifth straight league championship title later this month. Last year, Watertown captured its first sectional title in boys swimming.
Its an amazing feeling to be a part of that, Watson said. Weve had so many good swimmers.
Watson is the defending league champion and holds the Watertown school record for diving with a score of 226.87. He broke David Dietterichs 1974 mark last year.
Neither Watertown coach Jeff Ginger nor assistant Tom Graban have extensive experience working with divers, so Watson is largely self-taught through diving manuals and videos.
Some gymnastics training when he was younger helped with the twists and turns.
Shayne is good because hes technical-minded, said Ginger, the ninth-year head coach. He thinks in terms of details. Not everyone does. Some kids want to get up there and just feel their body in the air, kind of finesse it and do the artsy thing.
Watson compiles lists to take to practice, outlining the things hes going to work on that day. He picks something every day and works on it until he gets it right. His father, Mark, records his dives at every meet so Shayne can review them.
Shayne thinks like an engineer thinks, Ginger said. Hes very meticulous, very detail-oriented.
Gingers favorite dive for Watson to perform is the reverse dive and pike. During the dive, Watson jumps upward and outward, touches his toes, and then drops his torso backward and down, and enters the water hands first.
Its absolutely a gorgeous dive, Ginger said.
Watson had not perfected that dive by the end of last season, but hes very good at it now, according to Ginger.
It requires him to be very comfortable on the board, Ginger said. He needs to know where his body is in the air. At this point, safety is not a really a big thing with Shayne because hes so careful about getting up and off the board.
A lot of what Watson has focused on at diving camps is getting way up off the board and executing the dive from the top of the jump.
Watson says his best dive is the forward 2� somersault in tuck. Hes working on perfecting his forward 1� somersault with two twists, and his back 1� somersault straight.
The hardest thing about diving isnt actually being able to complete the dives, Watson said. Fear is the biggest obstacle.
Watson had to work to overcome that fear after he hit the diving board while performing a reverse dive during the league championships his sophomore season. He was injured badly enough that he couldnt complete the rest of his dives and finished next to last.
Everything you do is mental, Watson said. Just standing there thinking you have to do a hard dive, and youre going to be going ridiculously fast when you hit the water is the scariest thing. The reason a lot of people stop diving is because theyre afraid.
Watson said repetition is the best way to ease the fear.
If theres a dive you dont like, but you need to compete it, you just have to keep doing it in practice until you feel comfortable, he said.
Watson joined the swimming team his sophomore year when he learned the squad was in need of a diver. He had wrestled in eighth grade, but a broken leg during his freshman soccer season knocked out that winter sports campaign.
Watson, who has about 16 solid dives he can execute consistently, now trains the other divers on the team and has earned the nickname Coach Watson.
Hes a one-of-a-kind, Ginger said. If it wasnt for having a kid like Shayne on the team, I dont know if we would ever produce a diver like him.

The North Country Regional Economic Development Council has awarded $143,000 in state funds and tax breaks to the Raquette River Blueway Corridor project, which will be used to create improvements to increase tourism and promote use of the river.
The 148-mile corridor project, which includes areas of St. Lawrence, Franklin and Hamilton counties, has been in the works for more than a decade, but progress has been slow until recent months. The corridor was named a priority project by the North Country Regional Economic Development Council in October, which paved the way for the grant and will make access to further state funds easier in the future.
Colton will use some of the funds to create a Stone Valley Information Center at the town museum.
The town also has nearly completed construction on the first of 15 informational kiosks that will be placed along the corridor. The prototype is on Main Street, and includes a map of the corridor for visitors.
Potsdam Planning and Development Coordinator Frederick J. Hanss oversees the funding for the project.
I think its great, he said. Were really pleased. Quite a few very good projects were funded.
In Potsdam, a portion of the funds will be used to create a riverwalk trail that will cross over Fall Island, following the river and connecting to walking paths at Ives Park and Clarkson University.
The Potsdam riverwalk trail is one of those projects that is more local than one of those corridor-long projects, Mr. Hanss said. It really does create a sort of pedestrian hub downtown, and we really hope that this will be good for residents of the village.
The state funds also will be used to create an oral history of electric power along the river. The Raquette River has long been a source of electricity, with 27 plants in operation.
A lot of people who played pretty prominent roles in the construction of hydroelectric facilities have passed away, Mr. Hanss said.
Historians will interview those who worked to install the early hydroelectric facilities and record their stories.
Architectural and engineering work on the Potsdam riverwalk will begin soon, and construction on the informational kiosks along the corridor will start next year.

With coins values depend on it's rarity and most importantly its condition. without knowing its condition it's impossible to determine a value. In mint condition I've seen these 1837 zacatecas sell for about $400.00, many is lesser levels of condition sell in the $200.00- $300.00 range.

Unless I am mistaken the coin in question was from a small group of coins and artifacts that were taken illegally from the USS Yorktown site and sold at Sothebys. The Navy sent a request for the property to be returned and Sothebys forwarded the request to the winner of the auction adding that they would refund the money. The property was returned and nothing I can find has made mention of the property being resold.

Welcome to another (no doubt) polarizing installment of A GuyÂ's Opinion! TodayÂ's ultra-mannish comments are the unfiltered brainstuff of Shane, 36, who runs a boutique marketing firm and is passionate about the Pop Warner football team he coaches (defensive coordinator, if you were wondering). ShaneÂ's thoughts on such diverse subjects as HeavenÂ's Gate and high-waists are yours for the browsing...
First of all, lemme preface everything I say with, I have no clue what's in, what out, or what's in between. I probably should but I don't. That being said I can only rely on my red-blooded, Midwestern, boy sense that asks one question, Â"Do I wanna have sex with these girls?Â" The answer? Yes. All of them.
1. Rachel Bilson
Love the dress. ItÂ's stylish, casual, and comfortable. The whole thing seems to emit sensibility and confidence. However, the glasses are lame. They wouldn't fit a pro wrestlerÂ's steroid-enlarged face, let alone hers. Cute nose. Dig her. Who is that again? Moving on...
2. Zoe Kravitz
This is evidently the love child of Lenny Kravitz and Lisa Bonet. I forgot her name, but this girl is really beautiful. I will say this dress is dope, and shows off some ridiculous legs. Also, the color of the dress is gorgeous. I'm a bit confused about why sheÂ'd wear pink shoes with a red bag and red necklaces. Shouldn't that shit match? I'm not sure if I'm right or wrong, but I wish it woulda matched.
3. Sarah Michelle Gellar
The outfit reminds me of those cats who thought the comet was coming, put the correct starship fare in their pocket, and then killed themselves. [Ed note: HeÂ's referring to the HeavenÂ's Gate/Hale Bopp mass suicide for those of you who donÂ't follow.] The necklace is way too long, but that doesnÂ't bother me that much overall. WhatÂ's with the gold headband and silver shoes? I protest the metallic clashingÂ--itÂ's silly. As for the rest, the rock hanging off her finger is obnoxious. ItÂ's way too big. Simple and classic is better than having a whole diamond quarry on your hand.
4. Sienna Miller
I get that high-waisted stuff is a big deal right now, but it makes women look mad frumpy. IÂ'm totally down with shorts, especially if youÂ've got the gams to carry them, but I donÂ't like these shorts. The buttons are too big, theyÂ're all wrinkled like sheÂ's been sleeping in themÂ--itÂ's garbage. She nailed the rest of the outfit though: hair is great, bag is okay, and I like the shenanigans going on with the layers of necklaces and wristband du jour. But the old lady, frumpy shorts...IÂ'd rather see muffin top than the high waist. Muffin top can be cute.
In closing, I just wanna make it clear that these girls (and
whoever's reading this) shouldn't worry about a single thing I have to
say about their clothes. My thoughts are just goofy bantering from an
extremely unqualified judge. Its gotta be such a drag to have constant
scrutiny about what you are wearing. If any of the above girls ever
see me, feel free to punch me in the nose.

The Huntsman team, from left to right, Spencer Montgomery, Alyssa Johnson, Brooke Siler, Zack Maxfield, and Eliana Fernandez.
In February, the CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) Challenge team from the Huntsman School took second place in a regional competition against teams from BYU, Weber State, University of Utah, Westminster College, and Utah Valley University, losing only to a team of graduate students from the U of U.
"The USU team invested hundreds of hours in their research and presentations," said Professor Brad Johnson, mentor and coach for the USU CFA team. "This team was made up of what I think are the brightest and hardest working students we have at the Huntsman School."
Along with the financial analysis skills they developed, the team also honed their presentation and team building abilities.
The CFA Challenge is an annual competition that gives university students hands-on mentoring and intensive training in financial analysis. The students assumed the role of research analysts and had to value a stock, write an initiation-of-coverage report, and present their recommendations to a panel of experienced analysts.
Their second place finish is the highest ever for a USU team in this competition and earned glowing compliments from the judges and members of the CFA community.
The team included Eliana Fernandez, Zach Maxfield, Spencer Montgomery, Brooke Siler, and Alyssa Johnson. Eliana Fernadez and Brooke Siler will begin working in the Global Investment Research Division of Goldman Sachs this summer. Zach Maxfield will begin his work with Deloitte this summer, while Spencer Montgomery will be pursuing a Ph.D. and Alyssa Johnson pursuing a job in investment research.
