They all have decent ceilings if they can develop how envisioned (obviously way too early for any conclusion on that front).
I personally would take Clevenger and Ward without a problem as the backup C. I think they are the best options at this point. Clevenger is a decent rounded player who isn't exciting, but gets the job done. Ward's defense cannot be described in words. It's that good. I don't care if he never gets a hit in the MLB ever, as long as he does his thing behind the plate. It's worth that much to me. Of course, he's strictly a backup.

It seems like Ward takes a little time to adjust to a new level. He struggled offensively in 2010 & 2012, but bounced back in 2011 & 2013. He walks at a really efficient rate, especially for a catcher. I'd peg Ward as Norfolk's primary catcher, with Joseph getting starts behind the plate occasionally, while he revolves into different positions like 1B, DH, RF, LF. The two Luis's can hang around as a backup/third string at Bowie and/or Norfolk. Catching depth can deplete in a hurry, so I wouldn't be against having an average of about 2.5 catchers per affiliate. Ohlman is defintely the main backstop at Bowie. Allen De San Miguel and Zane Chavez perform well, but don't have much potential. They'll be organizational depth at Delmarva/Frederick/Bowie; doesn't really matter. Do you think Wynston Sawyer will be the majority catcher at Frederick?

It would need to be ask of these posters/fans as to what do they expect from a backup catcher??
A .300 hitter with occasional Pop and a 30 % caught stealing rate??
Well pardon me, but wouldn't this then be your starter???

The Schools and Libraries Division (SLD) of the Universal Services Administration Company (USAC) provides discounts for most schools and libraries in the United States through e-rate to obtain affordable telecommunications, Internet access, and internal connections.
All billed entity applicants should now have a FCC Registration Number. Branch libraries that are billed under a main library have to have their own individual FCC Registration Number.
All FSCS numbers for libraries are listed on the NCES page, but each entity will have to search for their library. Please note: the FSCS number for Form 471 must be in the following format:
All forms and instructions are available through the Schools and Libraries Division Web site. As of now, Forms 470, 471, and 486 may be filed online. Please note: you may only certify your forms online if you have a PIN from the SLD.
The application process for e-rate is as follows:
1. Begin development of a Technology Plan (if you apply for Internet access or internal connections) and update annually. Each tech plan must be certified every 3 years.
2. File Form 470. Each applicant will receive a "Receipt Acknowledgement Letter" that indicates the beginning of the allowable vendor contract date, which is 28 days after your Form 470 was posted or received.
3. Wait a minimum of 28 days as indicated on your Receipt Acknowledgement Letter. Receive bids for new services.
4. File Form 471 before the filing window closes. Be sure to have all attachment documentation with your Form. Each applicant will receive a "Receipt Acknowledgement Letter" letting the applicant know that the form was received, but no decision has been made as to funding. Contact will be made between the SLD and the applicant if further information is needed to complete the review of Form 471.
5. A "Funding Commitment Decision Letter" will be received by each applicant whose form has been approved for funding.
6. File Form 486 within 120 days of the service start date or the date of your funding commitment decision letter, whichever is later. Each applicant will receive a "Receipt Acknowledgement Letter" once the Form 486 is received.
7. File Form 472, if you receive reimbursements within 120 days of the last date of service on your funding commitment decision letter. If you receive discounts on your bills, then you do not have to file a Form 472.
Each billed entity must have a FCC Registration Number on file with the FCC. This is a result of further implementation of the Federal Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996, including the "Red-Light Rule". Under the red light rule, the USAC will not disburse any Federal benefits to an entity that shares the same taxpayer identification number as an entity that has delinquent debt owed to the Commission or its reporting components until such debt is paid.
As stated in the Application Process, technology plans must be certified every three years by the State E-Rate Coordinator for Public Libraries in Tennessee. A technology plan only has to be submitted for certification if an applicant is applying for Internet access or internal connections. The following criteria must be included in the technology plan for it to be certified:
1. The plan must establish clear goals and a realistic strategy for using telecommunications and information technology to improve library services.
2. The plan must have a professional development strategy to ensure that staff know how to use these new technologies to improve library services
3. The plan must include an assessment of the telecommunication services, hardware, software, and other services that will be needed to improve library services.
4. The plan must provide for a sufficient budget to acquire and support the non-discounted elements of the plan: the hardware, software, professional development, and other services that will be needed to implement the strategy.
5. The plan must include an evaluation process that enables the library to monitor progress toward the specified goals and make mid-course corrections in response to new developments and opportunities as they arise.
To check the status of your tech plan, please refer to the tech plan page. Note that the date that the tech plan is valid through is based on fiscal year, not calendar year. So, a plan that is valid through 2006 should be resubmitted for certification for Funding Year 2006-2007.
Please submit all tech plans to:
Jennifer Cowan-Henderson
The amount of your discount is measured using the numbers in the Free and Reduced Lunch Program in the school district that your library physically resides in. For the statistics, please refer to the Free and Reduced Lunch Program website for Tennessee. The other determining factor is whether your county is designated by the SLD to be urban or rural. To check your county's status, please refer to the MSA portion of the SLD Web site, and click on Tennessee. The counties listed are considered rural.
Once the statistics are retrieved for your school district, the number enrolled in the program is divided by the total number of students to get a percentage. You can use the discount matrix below to determine your discount percentage.
Note: Keep a copy of the data from the Free and Reduced Web site for your records, in case of questions from the SLD concerning your discount percentage.
Attachments for Form 471
Attachments can now be filed either online or via a paper form mailed in.
Submitting online
To submit an Item 21 attachment, please go to the Schools and Libraries Division Web Site and click on the Item 21 Attachment button at the bottom of the Form 471 column.
Filing via paper form
Instructions for attachments are available through the Schools and Libraries Division Web site for attachments. The attachment can consist of (from the Web site):
Regardless of the specific format utilized, the Item 21 Attachment should include the following type of information:
In addition, a narrative description is useful to provide the SLD with a clear understanding of the funding request. This narrative description should include information needed by the SLD to make an appropriate eligibility decision, such as:

The 2011-2012 schedule has been officially released and as
expected the Rangers will begin the season on a lengthy road trip. The January 2nd Winter Classic
matchup with the Philadelphia Flyers has also been officially confirmed. Here are some interesting tidbits and
thoughts on the schedule:
- The Rangers open the season with six road games, the first
two overseas against Los Angeles and Anaheim, and the next four against the Islanders, Vancouver, Calgary and Edmonton.
- Once Madison Square Garden
is re-opened, the Rangers will host their home opener on Thursday October 27th against Toronto. The Blueshirts will play five more home games
in a row after that against Ottawa, San Jose, Anaheim, Montreal and Winnipeg.
- The Rangers close out the season on April 7th at
home against Washington.
- The Rangers will play 14 back-to-backs next season,
including against the Kings and Ducks to open the season. The Blueshirts thrived in back-to-backs last
year, especially at the start of the season, but they'll be playing
considerably fewer of them next year.
- The busiest month of the season will be March, which
features 17 games in all including a season-long seven-game home-stand from
March 11th through March 23rd.
- The Blueshirts don't play the Devils until December 20th and won't face New Jersey
at MSG until February 7th.
- The team will play 10 games in October, 11 in November, 15
in December, 12 in January, 13 in February, 17 in March and four in April.
- Looking for tough stretches? The Rangers play at Washington, home
against the Flyers, home against Pittsburgh, at Carolina and at Tampa
Bay in an eight day
stretch from November 25th through December 3rd.
- Starting on January 15th New York won't have too many cupcakes
left. Check this slate out @Montreal,
vs. Nashville, vs. Pittsburgh,
@Boston, vs. Winnipeg, @NJ, @Buffalo, vs.
Philly, vs. NJ, vs. Tampa Bay, @Philly, vs. Washington, @Boston, vs. Chicago, vs. Columbus, @Pittsburgh, @Islanders, vs. Buffalo, vs. NJ,
@Carolina, @TB, vs. Boston, @NJ, @Ottawa, @Chicago, vs. Islanders, vs.
Hurricanes, vs. Pittsburgh, vs. Colorado, vs. NJ, vs. Detroit, vs. Buffalo,
@Toronto, @Minnesota, @Winnipeg, vs. Montreal, vs. Boston, @Philly,
@Pittsburgh, vs. Washington. Oof, it
would be nice to have some padding in the win column going into that
stretch. Those five games to close the
season are particularly brutal.

A federal district court judge on March 15 ruled that National Security Letters (NSLs) are unconstitutional not only under the First Amendment but also under the "separation of powers" principle. As Alex Johnson, a staff writer for NBC News, put it, those NSLs are "the supersecret mechanism[s] by which the FBI can get your private information without a warrant in the name of counterterrorism."
The suit was brought by the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), a non-profit digital rights group that supports personal privacy over the Internet, on behalf of an Internet provider that received an NSL from the FBI to provide customer information. The suit claimed the FBI's letter was unconstitutional under the First Amendment's guaranteed right to free speech as well as under the principle of separation of powers in that information was demanded without a court order or a probable cause search warrant issued by a judge. When the ruling was announced, the senior staff attorney for the EFF, Matt Zimmerman, exulted:
We are very pleased that the court recognized the fatal constitutional shortcomings of the NSL statute. The government's [demands and gag orders] have truncated the public debate on these controversial surveillance tools. Our client looks forward to the day when it can publicly discuss its experience.
Part of the NSL statute requires that any company that provides communications services, such a phone companies, Internet service providers (ISPs), and banks, must not only release private information about customers upon demand, but also refrain from informing the customer about the demands. The judge said that since the gag order is unconstitutional, so is the rule allowing the demand without a court order. U.S. District Judge Susan Illson said that the secrecy provision couldn't be separated from the main body of the law and that consequently that entire section of the law was unconstitutional.

I was researching pasta types, both to reconnect with my Italian roots AND to come up with great "religious" phrases ("Holy cannelloni!") when I discovered Fedelini...
Fedelini - a pasta described as being between spaghetti and vermicelli in size, literally translates as " the little faithful ones". Example: "I am proud to be one of the fedelini."
I'm also considering for more... insistent FSM Followers, or for whom, like myself, enjoy a good argument with a Bible Botherer (in the most respectful way of course, everyone is welcome to their own opinion and religion!) then perhaps "strozzapreti" would be a good nickname. It derives from the Italian for "priest-chokers" or "priest-stranglers", though of course the FSM would NEVER condone violence. It's a turn of phrase, for carbo-goodnesses sake!
For usage example: "Wow, you're being REALLY strozzapreti there, dude... Chill!"

How can art reveal missing perspectives in history? How can we research and report on the founding, shifting, and evolving perspectives on race in American history? Why is it important to look back at history in order to move forward?
For thousands of years, artists have depicted historical scenes and events. The African American artists introduced hereKerry James Marshall, Kara Walker, Glenn Ligon and Romare Beardenreveal missing perspectives that have not traditionally been presented in art. Study these artists to understand how they re-tell, re-shape, and re-imagine historical narratives. Then research the history of the Founding Fathers and slavery in the United States.

JAY–With the crowd already warmed up from the girls big win, the Falcon boys were able to ride the back of their stand-out goaltender all the way to the 3-0 win over Champlain Valley Union.
"Chris Bronson was amazing tonight," said assistant captain Nate Stewart, "Everything (he did) was just perfect. He covered us many, many times and definitely kept us in it."
While there was not a lot of flow early in the game (or for the rest of the contest for that matter), North Country was the aggressor early.
JAY–With the crowd already warmed up from the girls big win, the Falcon boys were able to ride the back of their stand-out goaltender all the way to the 3-0 win over Champlain Valley Union.
"Chris Bronson was amazing tonight," said assistant captain Nate Stewart, "Everything (he did) was just perfect. He covered us many, many times and definitely kept us in it."
While there was not a lot of flow early in the game (or for the rest of the contest for that matter), North Country was the aggressor early.
After drawing a CVU penalty, the Falcons power play almost got the team on the board on a nice chance by Josh Bernier, but he was denied.
Freshman Greg Talbert got the nod in net for the Redhawks, but he was not long for this game.
The signs that he was destine for a seat on the bench began to show when Logan Fortier put the Falcons ahead 1-0.
In an example of "sticktuitiveness," Fortier fired a puck in on net and chased it down, getting his stick on it and some how directing it off of Talbert and into the net as he skated by.
Nate Stewart made it 2-0 on the power-play with a bad angle shot that he was able to blast past the keeper and the crowd in front.
"It's really important to get on top early here at home,"said coach Andrew Roy, "With the fan support we wanted to come out with some good energy in the first. The guys were looking to get the puck to the net and the guys did it."
The Falcons directed ten shots at CVU's net in the first.
They would combine for nine more the rest of the way.
Bronson had an easy time of it in the first period, facing just one shot, but throughout the final thirty minutes it was a completely different story.
In the second, the game started to slide away from North Country. Their play was erratic and undisciplined. They were tagged for ten minutes worth of penalties, allowing for a measly five minutes of 5-on-5 action.
"In the second it got old, in the third I got used to it," said Bronson of all the time on the PK, "The defense played well, icing the puck, getting it out of the zone, and covering their man. Congrats to the defense."
CVU was merciless on the man advantage. While it was not the prettiest power-play in the world, it was relentless. They hammered pucks at Bronson, and he was up to the task.
The saves he was making were so mesmerizing that I briefly left my duties as a reporter, and just simply watched, amazed at the things he was doing.
The best save of them all came on a low shot that had goal written all over it.
No bueno.
Chris kicked out his right leg and made the save of the game to keep score at 2-0.
"It just happened. Spur of the moment. It happens really quick, and you just got to do it and hope it works," said the junior netminder about the save.
Said Roy, "Chris was fantastic. He controlled his rebounds very, very well. His movement was good, and he didn't get out of position."
From the prettiest moment to the ugliest. Logan Judd delivered a high hard hit on CVU's Jeremy Lerner that dropped the junior like a sack of bricks. Lerner slid from just above the hash marks down into the corner and it looked like he was going to have to be taken out on the stretcher. But he eventually got up and was able to skate back to the CVU bench.
Here's the kicker; no penalty.
In a period where North Country spent two-thirds of the time in the box, a hit that could have been called charging or at least interference, and the refs missed it.
To say Judd got a little lucky on that one is an understatement.
Ross DeLaBruere on the other hand was unlucky on two occasions, as his hard work produced two breakaways, but he was unable to cash in either time.
Things continued to go poorly for North Country in the third. But, along with Bronson's play, there was another bright spot, the penalty killing.
Another five penalties in the period, including an early 5-3, were all turned away by the North Country PK units, but all the time shorthanded showed in their play.
Said Stewart of all the penalty killing the Falcons had to do, "It was rough. There were some borderline calls, but it is stuff that we can't take. Chris bailed us out of those, and we had some great blocked shots, including Colombia's late. We manned up tonight on the PK."
As the game wound down, their legs were clearly tired. The zip that they had shown in the beginning of the contest was gone.
With one minute left CVU pulled their goalie, hoping to get at least one past Bronson, but instead, the luckiest guy on the ice, Logan Judd, fired a long clearing shot that slid effortlessly into the open net with 3.1 seconds left to ice the game away.
The win was an important one for the club, who last won a game back on December 22nd against Burlington.
"This is a huge win," said Roy, "To come back home and defeat CVU, who has beaten us up in a variety of different sports, we are very happy to beat them. It is also important for us to see some success for how hard we have been working."
With the heavy hitters of the metro all but in the past, one game with South Burlington remains, look for North Country to start putting up some W's in the second half.
The boys will back-end the double header Saturday afternoon, as they too will host Rice with a 1:00 scheduled start time.

WASHINGTON (WUSA) --If lawmakers do nothing to stop the nation from going over the Fiscal Cliff, we are all going to pay a lot more in taxes.
The median household income in the region is about $84,000. That means that the median household will likely have to pay between $2,000 and $3,500 extra in taxes.
Nearly 90 percent of Americans would pay more in taxes. The Tax Policy Center estimates that the numbers work out to be about $500 billion next year.
Low-income households would pay more due to expiration of tax credits in the 2009 stimulus. That means they could go from paying next to nothing taxes -- to paying at least $400, if not closer to $1,000 -- next year.
For the economy, that means $500 billion in disposable spending is going away. Just looking at the middle class, the White House is saying consumption would decline next year by about $200 billion.
Consumer spending is about two-thirds of the economy.Let's say the nation's economy is growing by 2 percent right now. We could see 1.4 percentage points shaved off on that impact alone.

|Three Area Mishaps, Four Injuries
|Written by Steve Frank
|Tuesday, 29 June 2010 06:25
Two motorcyclists—a man and a woman—were airlifted from near the scene of a Blue Ridge Parkway motorcycle crash yesterday evening, that as approaching storms threatened to scuttle the life flights.
The accident occurred at about 6:40 near Chestoa View, mile marker 320 on the Parkway in Avery County, when the cycle the two were riding ran off of the road to the left and careened down an embankment. First units on the scene for Avery County found the man unconscious and the woman suffering multiple injuries, causing an immediate call for any air evacuation service that could reach the site. Several air services were grounded with an approaching line of storms, but two choppers managed to get in just under the weather and pick up the victims at a landing zone set up by the rescue squads in the parking lot of Linville Falls. Parkway officials said that the man eventually regained consciousness and that injuries, although serious, appeared not to be life threatening. Word from the scene was that the pair were taken to a hospital in Asheville, and that the National Park service would file the report on the accident.
Meanwhile, in Wilkes, a man reportedly fell from the top of Widows Peak in Stone Mountain State Park. Wilkes rescue and fire were called in, but the man was removed from the scene by friends and apparently taken for treatment. State Parks is investigating the 7pm incident there.
A trucker was injured in a noon-hour accident in Ashe County yesterday, that as he lost control of the cab section he was driving and ran off US 221. The cab crashed into a yard just across from the Cranberry Spring Road intersection, and firemen from Fleetwood and Deep Gap worked to carefully remove the man, but his injuries were not regarded as life threatening. Traffic was slowed for a time with all the emergency vehicles, but with the wreck off the road, traffic was not stopped through the scene.

Q-Resorts has an agreement with Doug and Vivian Spates to buy the block, which stretches from Central Street to Second Street, but the closing has yet to occur. It was scheduled for the end of December, and then the end of January, but it didn't happen, and Doug Spates said he does not know why or when it will.
Spates speculates that there are hold-ups somewhere and said he thinks it could have to do with an environmental certificate, but doesn't know the details.
In the meantime, Spates has bought the Hood Building as a future home for some of his tenants.
For more on this story, see Thursday's edition of the Newport Daily Express for Feb. 14, 2013.

Finian McLonergan, who has emigrated from Ireland to the town of Rainbow Valley in the mythical state of Missitucky, with his daughter Sharon, is intent on burying a stolen pot of gold in the shadows of Fort Knox, in the belief it will grow and multiply. Hot on their heels is Og, a leprechaun determined to recover his treasure before the loss of it turns him permanently human. Complicating matters is a corrupt senator, but in the end Sharon marries the handsome, young Woody Mahoney - and Woody's mute sister, Susan, acquires the power of speech and falls in love with Og, who decides that being human is not so bad after all.

- Dance Studios and Summer Camps which are accredited by the American Camping Association may also perform the shows.

This is essentially a series of things I think in the wake of the Royals-Rays Wil Myers + for James Shields/Wade Davis and the Mets' on-going negotiations with R.A. Dickey.
– The amount the Royals paid in prospects for James Shields and Wade Davis increased R.A. Dickey's value on the trade market.
– In fact, they increased it so much that it has almost become hard to make a deal. R.A. Dickey has been Shields' equal or better in the last two or three years. With the inclusion of Myers, the Mets would only be happy with a return that included a truly elite prospect who projects as a impact player – a potential all-star – who contributes value on both sides of the ball, in the big leagues. There just are not that many of those guys in the high minors. Leaving out NL East teams for a moment, the list includes guys like Travis D'Arnaud (TOR), Jurickson Profar (TEX) and Oscar Taveras (STL). I'm open to suggestions for others to include.
– The Texas Rangers' Mike Olt is not enough to be the centerpiece of a return deal for R.A. Dickey. Grant Bisbee did a very nice, thorough explanation of many of the important ideas behind that here. The Mets think so too. Texas has, thus far, balked at including either Profar or Elvis Andrus.
– The gap between R.A. Dickey and the next best pitcher on the free agent market, Anibal Sanchez, is significant. In his last three seasons, Anibal Sanchez has been worth 6.1 bWAR. R.A. Dickey was worth 5.6 bWAR in 2012 alone and 12.1 in the last three. Or is it? If Fangraphs WAR is your style, Sanchez has been worth 12 fWAR in the last three and R.A. Dickey 9.9. Moving back to more basic stats, in the last three years, Dickey has allowed 3.28 runs/9 innings pitched over 616.2 innings. Sanchez: 4.12 r/9 over 587 IP. Nah, there's a gap: Dickey's been better on a per-inning basis and pitched more innings. He's also 10 years older.
– The gap between what the Mets are offering Dickey – $20 million on top of 2013's $5 million, for a total of $25 million, and his request of $26-28 million for 2014-2015 for a combined value of $31-33 million, is in baseball terms, not big. It can be easily bridged, if the Mets wanted to.
– I don't think the right answer for the Mets is definitively "TRADE" (or if you prefer "TRAID") or "SIGN." I would lean toward trade, and I think the deliberate pace of the negotiations suggests that the Mets are too. However, the real issue is whether the Mets can hook up with a team, and it's maybe 5 or six in baseball, with a high-enough ceiling offensive prospect to make trading Dickey an appropriate value play. That is not an easy task. Were Dickey to come back on a three-year deal that average between $8.3 and $11 million annually, at anything close to his 2010-2012 level, he would continue to be an incredibly valuable asset. It's obviously a shorter term asset than say, 6 full years of a prospect, but those extra years of control have to be balanced against the odds that the players acquired for Dickey do not achieve his level of success. In the same vein, the odds have to be against 38-year old of Dickey 2013-2015 equalling Dickey 2010-2012, right?

Send military gifts to our soldiers this holiday season.
For our military men and women deployed to hostile regions, the hardship lies not just in physical danger and the lack of material comfort; there's also the loneliness of being away from friends and family, of being far from home in an unfamiliar country.
"You may not realize, but it makes a big difference in our day-to-day lives to know that through everything that is going on there are still people back home that care about our well-being…"
The quote above comes from a letter addressed to Operation Gratitude by one of the many U.S. service members who have received a care package from the organization. Each year, more than 100,000 military care packages are assembled by Operation Gratitude and shipped to soldiers and their children, as well as our country's wounded warriors, veterans and first responders.
With a mission to lift morale and express appreciation for the sacrifices of our U.S. Armed Forces, Hickory Farms is proud to support Operation Gratitude. In addition to our gifts for soldiers, our employees also volunteer with the organization. One of our Facebook fans recently left us the nicest message about the Hickory Farms volunteers she met while volunteering with Operation Gratitude in Van Nuys, California:
"When I volunteered for Operation Gratitude today, I was blessed to volunteer with and get to know a few of Hickory Farms' amazing employees. These employees were hard working, happy, community-friendly Americans who were there with a smile to work for and support our troops. All of these employees made me love Hickory Farms all the more." -Janette M. Isaacs
Would you like to express your thanks to one of our deployed military men or women with a military gift package?
When you order military Christmas gifts from Hickory Farms, you'll be sharing a taste of home. Our unique military gifts offer free shipping to APO and FPO addresses, making it easy to spread the holiday cheer.
Shop our gifts for military soldiers to choose delicious nut gifts or gourmet meat and cheese gift baskets. A Beef Summer Sausage or dried fruit gift is sure to brighten the recipient's day with a dose of nostalgia and the pleasure of high-quality ingredients.
Whether you are shopping military Christmas gifts for a friend, family member or even someone you've never met, we thank you for supporting our troops.

On January 25, 2013 Allen Rowley, Acting Forest Supervisor of the
Manti-La Sal National Forest signed a Decision Notice and Finding of
No Significant Impact for the Deer Creek - Upper Cottonwood Two Lease

lands. The two lease modification areas are located in Sections 22,
23, 24, 25, 26, & 27 of Township 16 South Range 6 East SLB&M,
approximately 15 miles northwest of Orangeville in Emery County, Utah.

One of the most decorated, respected, and charismatic chefs in the world, Todd English has enjoyed a staggering number of accolades during his remarkable career. English, a father of three, is so much more than a restaurateur, though it was his first restaurant Olives that helped catapult him to stardom. He now owns and operates 17 restaurants across the country, has just launched a line of cookware products and is foraying into casinos and lifestyle categories. He has been recognized by several of the food industry's most prestigious publications, established one of the best-known culinary brands in the nation, published three critically acclaimed cookbooks and was recognized as one of People Magazine's "50 Most Beautiful People."
In Spring of 1991, English caught the culinary world's eye when the James Beard Foundation named him their National Rising Star Chef. English followed through on that promise, as the James Beard Foundation subsequently named him Best Chef in the Northeast in 1994. Nation's Restaurant News named English one of their "Top 50 Tastemakers" in 1999. In 2001, English was awarded Bon Appetit's Restaurateur of the Year award. Also was English has recently been named to the James Beard Foundation's "Who's Who in Food and Beverage in America."
English is currently the chef and owner of Olives in Charlestown, Massachusetts. Olives opened in April 1989 as a 50-seat storefront restaurant. It has drawn national and international applause for English's interpretive rustic Mediterranean cuisine. Olives now occupies a larger space down the street from its original location in Charlestown, Massachusetts. In recent years, English has established Olives as one of the most prestigious names in the nation by opening other locations around the world: Olives New York in the W Hotel in Union Square, Olives Las Vegas inside the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas, Olives DC in the heart of Washington, D.C. and Olives Aspen at the St. Regis Hotel in Aspen, Colo.
English also has two Figs restaurants in the greater Boston area and a location at LaGuardia Airport in New York City. Figs serves traditional and eclectic pizzas and handmade pastas. Among English's other restaurants are Tuscany at Mohegan Sun in Connecticut which serves Italian inspired foods and pays homage to his Italian roots. Bonfire, a steakhouse in Boston's Park Plaza Hotel, is a celebration of ranch cooking around the world from the U.S. to Australia and KingFish Hall is his first seafood concept located in Boston's historic Faneuil Hall. English's second seafood concept, Fish Club, at the Seattle Marriott Waterfront, opened in the spring of 2003. In early 2004 English added two more locations to his repertoire: the restaurant Todd English on Cunard Line's Queen Mary 2 and BlueZoo at the Walt Disney World Resort's Dolphin Hotel in Orlando, Fla. His first addition for 2005 was another New York establishment called English is Italian in Manhattan. The restaurant is a prix fixed, menu-less concept where diners can sample an array of Italian cuisine for one price. English opened his newest restaurant and first-ever French bistro, Riche, in New Orleans in September 2006.
Like English himself, his restaurants have received numerous accolades. The original Olives opened to immediate acclaim, as it was voted Best New Restaurant by Boston Magazine. Since then, it has been honored as Best Food and Top Table by Gourmet Magazine and is consistently named Boston's #1 Favorite Restaurant by Zagat. Figs was given the "Hot Concept" award from Nation's Restaurant News. KingFish Hall was named "Best of Boston" by Travel + Leisure Magazine.
Todd English began his cooking career at the age of 15 when he first entered the doors of a professional kitchen. At 20, he attended the Culinary Institute of America and graduated in 1982 with honors. He continued to hone his craft with Jean Jacques Rachou at New York's La Cote Basque and then relocated to Italy where he apprenticed at the well-established Dal Pescatore in Canto Sull O'lio and Paraccuchi in Locando D'Angello.
Drawing from his Italian heritage while in Italy, English developed his unique style and approach to cooking. English returned to the United States at 25 and was asked to be the executive chef of the award-winning Northern Italian restaurant Michela's in Cambridge, Mass. He served as executive chef for three years, garnering high praise from both the press and the public.
Some of English's television credits include the national public television series, Cooking Under Fire, produced by WGBH-TV in Boston; Public Television's Cooking in with Todd English, Iron Chef USA, Martha Stewart Living, Food Network's Opening Soon, Bobby Flay's Food Nation, and The Main Ingredient, Good Morning America, the Tony Danza Show, Extra, CBS This Morning, Live with Regis and Kelly, NBC's The Today Show, VHI's My Coolest Years, Discovery Channel's Party Planners, B Smith Style, Great Chefs of the Northeast, and Fox News Channel's Fox and Friends. Todd was the executive chef of the 2005 MTV Video Music Awards in Miami. In 2005 he teamed up with TV Shopping Network HSN to introduce a creative new culinary cookware and appliances and gourmet foods - The Todd English Collection. So successful was the launch, English completely sold out all of the products during one air debut.
Also to his credit, English has authored the critically acclaimed cookbooks, The Olives Table, The Figs Table and The Olives Dessert Table published by Simon & Schuster.
Todd's boundless philanthropy finds him contributing his time and celebrity to a host of charitable organizations throughout the year including Big Brothers Big Sisters, Men With Heart, The Anthony Spinazzola Foundation, Community Servings, Share Our Strength, Boys and Girls Clubs and City Year.

It's nice to find a company who can own up when they make a mistake. I purchased a 3000va APC UPS, they accidentally sent me one with the wrong plug. They made a great effort to help, and gave me very favorable options to resolve the issue. Needless to say this could have been a bad experience, but they handled it well.

We are halfway through the big four summer events that help define our community. The Greek Festival, International Days, the County Fair and Helper Arts Festival are what I call our big four.
We also have several other smaller celebrations as well including East Carbon/Sunnyside Community Daze, Wellington's Pioneer days and Green River's Melon Days just to name a few.
All around this country of ours similar community gatherings are underway this time of year. I remember growing up in the midwest where we had Steamboat Days and then had the county fair. They were the highlights of our summers. Many great memories remain from those fun days.
These are the things that strengthen a community. I make sure that I find time to get to many of these community functions. I usually don't spend a lot of money, but it gives me the chance to see old friends I have lost touch with among other things.
These are also a great venue for our local talent to show off. From the littlest dancers to the most polished singers it is a wonderful experience to take the stage and let things shine.
This year's parade was one of the best on many years. The variety of entries were fun to watch, but the kids on the sidelines were even more entertaining.
The visual artists and crafters also have the opportunity to show off what they can do. As people take time to browse the booths at the Arts Festival this year, remember that the artisans have poured their souls into what they are displaying. They have to pay for the booth and sit for three days waiting for someone to value their hard work.
These functions are also a chance for political candidate to come down and try and smooze some votes. We do seem to host many more Democratic candidates than Republican ones.
It is a chance for us to express our concerns, wants and needs to the perspective candidates. They are eager to listen and earn our votes.
If they are successful in getting into office then maybe something that they heard while they were here may help them shape legislation that is favorable to us in Carbon County. It is one of the few chances many of us have to sit and chat with future lawmakers.
But mostly having these events gives us a chance to gather as a community and just enjoy what we have and who we are living with. It is part of the glue that binds us together. Young, old, rich, poor, leaders, followers,fringe and mainstream we mingle and laugh together in a common purpose of community spirit.
I look forward to the rest of our summer events. I will be a bit saddened as the Arts Festival winds up because it will signal the end of another great summer.

Antwerp Bicycle Parking at Central Station
Not only is Antwerp Central Station the most beautiful train station I've ever seen, they have the most gorgeous and comprehensive bicycle parking facility I've ever seen. Nothing, anywhere, can beat this.

Antwerp Station is indeed a beautiful place, however this just makes it adorable.
- 12:19
This station was built between 1895 and 1905 when labour was very cheap. Many buildings from that time could therefore be lavishly embellished and adorned (I love those words). And as it recently was refurbished for 1.6 billion euros it better look good!
As for the bicycle parking, Wiki tells me that the total capacity is only about 2,500 - a lot less than even a small town like Houten near Utrecht in The Netherlands, with 3,000 parking places, has available. Antwerpen has a population of just short of 500,000 so it could do better. But I must admit: it looks fabulous.

You can beat this, just go to Holland : )

It's quite impressive, but I don't think it compares to some of the seas of bicycles I've seen in Japan - particularly multi-tier facilities - these can get quite large especially with commuter communities on the periphery of central Tokyo who will ride a bicycle to the train station.
- 18:33
It does look very nice indeed! Compared to parking facilities I've seen elsewhere, this one appears to have lots of open space, which would explain the lower number of spaces compared to other places in Holland. That's not necessarily a bad thing, especially if demand doesn't warrant more parking. Seems like they can easily increase capacity by converting some of the single-level rows into double-deckers if needed in the future.
- 19:07
The phrase "holy crap!" comes to mind.
- 03:33
Makes me wish I lived there and had a commute that would allow me to use that station every working day!
- 21:25
I would have been even better if they had replaced the stairs with a slope you could ride on and off on (as I saw once in A'dam). That's why you still see a lot of bikes in front of the station. Bikers are lazy when it comes to parking.

Unique, well-balanced body style with the fat tone of humbuckers on mahogany.
The S-1 Custom electric guitar utilizes the potent tonewood combination of mahogany body, 3-piece mahogany neck, and ebony fingerboard provide a resonance platform for versatile Seymour Duncan Custom Custom SH-11 and '59 SH-1N humbuckers. Schecter locking tuners and a TonePros Tune-o-matic-style bridge/stopbar tailpiece keep your intonation tight and true.
3-piece mahogany neck
Made with 3 pieces of mahogany for extra stability, 3-piece necks can withstand the test of time. Where standard necks may show aging defects from temperature and moisture changes throughout the years, the 3-piece neck will stay nice and straight for a lifetime of playability.
Ebony fingerboard
Ebony has a snappy, crisp attack with the density of maple, but with more brittle grains, oilier pores, and a stronger fundamental tone than maple. It has a tremendous amount of percussive overtones in the pick attack, that mute out shortly thereafter to foster great, long, sustain.
Seymour Duncan Custom Custom SH-11/'59 SH-1N humbuckers
Bridge: The Custom Custom is the SH-5 Duncan Custom humbucker with an Alnico II magnet for warm and smooth highs, more midrange, and a spongier bottom end than the SH-5. It's a good choice for players who need a traditional vintage tone with increased output. Neck: Late-'50s, vintage-correct, humbucker sound. Warm and crystalline clean tones. Full and bright distorted tones. Smooth sustain. Classic appointments include plain enamel wire, long legged bottom plate.
Schecter locking tuners with pearl buttons
Schecter locking tuners feature a locking screw pin to lock the string into place for greater tuning stability. Details include a 19:1 gear ratio allowing for precise fine tuning adjustments, removable Pearloid Buttons, threaded peghead bushing, and a 10mm diameter peg hole.

Comments about Schecter Guitar Research S-1 Custom Electric Guitar:
Bottom line - great guitar for the price. The absolute best thing about the guitar is the feel - light and one of the best neck profiles out there. (I like the neck better than my Gibson Les Paul.) Guitar has really decent tonal qualities as well. Only real Con is the Potentiometers, they don't seem like quality pots. And, the push/pull tone pot seems to cut the power back when in single coil way more than it should. I also had a bit of noise in the pickup selector switch. Overall though, not a bad guitar and its fun to play.

Comments about Schecter Guitar Research S-1 Custom Electric Guitar:
I use to have a Schecter C1 plus. That was a very good guitar. I sold it to get a guitar Pleked. I still have the guitar that got pleked. But always wished I would have kept the C1 plus. Anyway after the S1 went on sale, it was a no brainer. I just had to get it. Very glad I did. I love this guitar because it's smaller and lighter than the C1 Plus, has the real Duncan pu's and all the good stuff that make's it a excellent guitar. If you have never tried a Schecter, do yourself a favor, and try one. You will be impressed. Schecter make's a very, very good product. And it won't hurt your wallet to bad. I got the Dark Vintage Sunburst, and it looks killer. Won't need to get this one pleked.
I did lower the action a tad bit. Just because I like low action. I adjust all my guitars the way I want them. Also this guitar came with the same strings I use. Brand and Gauge. How can you beat that. Keep up the good work Schecter.

Uhm ... no. First and foremost you wouldn't be able to fit a whole PS3 into a SEM. Even if you could it wouldn't matter because it can't see through the PS3 - it's a microscope, not a X-ray machine. It can only see what's on the surface.
Because of that you can't even just place a chip in there and rip out its innermost secrets. You have to decap it first which is quite expensive or dangerous if you do it yourself since it involves pouring hot acid on the chip that will eat away any organic material it touches.
So yes - a SEM can be used to reverse engineer ICs - just as well as a good optical microscope. But the process is a lot more difficult than "just throw your PS3 into this magic box and you're all set".
If you want to know more on reverse engineering ICs, have a look here: http://www.flylogic.net/blog/
Maybe someone wants to send them a PS3?

There is more outrage over what some are calling the "Jimmy Fallon tax credit" in the state budget.
The Tonight Show will get $5 million in tax breaks when it moves back to New York in 2014.
Wednesday, The New York Times reported that the deal to move the show back to its original location was made "early on."
This week, Jay Leno confirmed that Jimmy Fallon will take over hosting duties next spring when the show returns to its original home.
The New York Times reports, "What was quietly set early on, though, was the decision to move the show back to New York."
That makes some people wonder whether it was a done deal, and whether the show would have moved back without the $5 million tax credit. The incentive is part of the $420 million a year the state makes available to lure television and film projects to New York.
Last month, Buffalo lost out on an opportunity to have a film about the Bills shot here. Movie producers moved production to Cleveland saying Ohio offers better tax incentives.
New York State Assemblyman David DiPietro says this is nothing new.
"New York City runs the state, literally. Our leaders from both sides of the aisle and the governor are both from downstate, and we get nothing up here. I mean, we get crumbs. We get crumbs. We grovel for it, and it's all we get. We never get anything up here," says DiPietro.
Last month, several state lawmakers spoke out against giving tax breaks to the Tonight Show.
"Is this a done deal to be in the budget, or is this something you guys might try to pull out?" asked Channel 2's Aaron Saykin.
"We're definitely going to try to pull it out. I don't know how successful we're gonna be, but we'll definitely try to pull it out," said State Senator George Maziarz.
We attempted to reach Senator Maziarz Wednesday, but his spokesperson said he was unavailable.
So what happened to that plan to pull the Fallon credit during budget talks? It didn't get enough support.
The budget the Governor signed includes allowing a "relocated television production" to qualify for tax breaks if it is a talk or variety show that filmed at least five seasons in another state, has a studio audience of 200 or more people, and spends at least $30 million in annual production costs in-state. The Tonight Show fits that bill. That's why some are even calling it the "Jimmy Fallon tax credit."
"What are your thoughts on a budget passing that had that in it?" asked Kelly Dudzik.
"I love Jimmy Fallon, he's a good entertainer, but I don't feel we should be using taxpayer money to bring him back here. If they want to move back to New York, fantastic, and we'd love to have them. But, with this state in such a horrible financial position. I think it's horrible. Especially also when they cut $90 million out of the developmentally disabled," DiPietro.
Wednesday, another NBC show, "America's Got Talent," also announced that it is moving to New York City.
Channel 2 called the New York State Film Office, which is part of the Governor's Office, to try to find out how the Tonight Show deal unfolded. We did not get a call back.

Goats Clear Invasive Plant Species at NSA Annapolis
Posted on: June 19, 2013 08:00 EDT by James Johnson, NAVFAC Washington Public Affairs
Greenbury Point, a popular spot for joggers and hikers on the North Severn area of Naval Support Activity Annapolis, has a new community - a herd of hungry goats.
The goats are being used by Naval Facilities Engineering Command Washington in a pilot project to combat invasive plant species which have forced out native plants and animals.
"Our current strategy is to restore designated areas to a grass-land meadow by using goats to consume the invasive species," says Kevin Montgomery, NAVFAC Washington environmental planning and conservation product line coordinator. "Goats are selective grazers; they prefer broad-leafed species over grasses and will eat all of the invasive plant species present in the designated areas."
Broad-leafed non-native plants such as the Autumn Olive tree, Oriental Bittersweet and Multiflora Rose are a favorite target of the herd.
"Another benefit of the goats is that their digestive system is so strong that they break down the seeds of everything they are eating," said Katharine Clark, natural resources manager. "So [the plants] can't reseed themselves, for the most part."
The herd of 60 goats is one of a three part approach, which also includes spraying chemicals and mechanical mowing.
"This is a pilot project that, if successful, can be utilized to reduce herbicide use and mowing actions," said Montgomery. "Thereby reducing chemical run-off and air emissions, while significantly improving the habitat."
They have been held inside one acre electric fence-lines since May, and are moved as needed to prevent overgrazing. By mid-June, the herd had grazed more than 12 acres. A target of 25 acres by the first week of August has been set. At that time, the goats will be removed and the area will be tilled and planted with native warm-season grass seeds suitable for ground nesting birds.
"At the halfway point, NAVFAC Washington Environmental is pleased with the progress the goats are making at Greenbury Point," said Blake Waller, natural resource specialist. "This phase of the project has met our expectations and we will continue to use this as a learning experience for the entire region."

Spa One customers concerned about sudden 'temporary' closure
Reporter: Claire Doan
Spa One, a well-known Tucson Spa Chain, has suddenly closed down without giving customers a heads-up; and many are scrambling to stop their monthly membership fee from being automatically deducted from their bank accounts, as services will not be provided for the month of August.
Signs have been posted at all three Spa One locations in Tucson that read: "Spa One regrets to inform you that due to owner's illness, we will be temporarily closed until Labor Day Weekend." Many customers found this out only after showing up for their scheduled appointments, only to realize the spa was closed.
"My daughter has an appointment on Saturday and they never even called to cancel the appointment," said Susan DeHart, who along with her daughter and mother all have Spa One memberships. "I think it's just really unfortunate they didn't run their business well ehough to at least let us know what was going on."
"'I'm concerned about whether in fact they will open up again," said Rose Vega, who has about $200 worth of credit and a $200 gift card from Spa One. "It is frustrating because it makes me think there is something fishy."
Customers who wanted to stop the company from potentially deducting a monthly membership fee could not reach anyone at Spa One via email or phone. Many also had trouble logging online to make changes to their Spa One accounts.
"When I put in my name and email address, it tells me I'm not recognizable through Spa One," Vega said. "You don't operate a busines that way. That's why you let your managers take over your busines while you are either sick or recovering."
KGUN9 News called the numbers that Spa One had on file with the Arizona Corporation Commission, but nobody answered.
Nick LaFleur, a spokesperson for the Better Business Bureau, said that in the last three years Spa One has had ten complaints to which they did not respond, giving them the lowest BBB rating of "F."
"We haven't been able to get a hold of the business," LaFleur said. "We're not sure it's going to be a month. You can take them at their word, but they're not being responsive."
LaFleur advised that before entering in any contract with a business, customers should do their research and make sure it the company is legitimate, especially if the contract will require an automatic weekly or monthly fee deducted from a bank account or credit card.
Even if Spa One shuts down, people are still legally entitled to the services in the amount that has been deducted from their bank account or on their gift cards, LaFleur said. However, practically speaking, it would be difficult to get that value back from the company, especially if it files for bankruptcy.

CANTON The man who confessed to shooting his friend and burying the body in Norfolk in 2010 was sentenced Monday to 25 years in prison after his attorney failed to convince a St. Lawrence County Court judge that he agreed to plead guilty to manslaughter because he was high on drugs.
Dustin J. Trimm, 38, Winthrop, in April confessed to shooting 21-year-old Jason M. Wing in the head and chest before burying him on Grantville Road property where the body was found in 2012.
Trimms attorney, Edward F. Narrow, said in court Monday that his client maintained his innocence, was under the influence of Suboxone and cocaine when he made his plea and sought to have the agreement waived and a trial scheduled.
Judge Jerome J. Richards denied that motion.
You raised your right hand and swore to the truth and I have no reason to doubt that, Judge Richards told Trimm. You dont have to be remorseful, you just have to serve the time. You are a bad person. Its as simple as that. You dont care about anybody but Dustin Trimm.
The sentencing came after an emotional Roxanne M. Stratton, Mr. Wings mother, addressed Trimm in the courtroom.
Shaking and crying, she unfolded a statement she had prepared and read in a staccato voice: It has been a long two years not knowing where Jason was, not hearing from him.
She said her son was a considerate and lovable young man who was well-liked in school and his absence has been deeply felt.
I never got to see him, to say goodbye, or say I love you, she said as Trimm stared straight ahead as she spoke.
But while she said she didnt feel he would be behind bars for a long enough period of time Mrs. Stratton said she felt justice had been served as Trimm will be off the street and unable to kill or molest another child.
I will get justice for my son, Dustin J. Trimm, Mrs. Stratton said. I hate you, I hate what you stand for.
Trimm was also sentenced on two unrelated charges of criminal sexual acts. He pleaded guilty to having forceful sex with different teenagers in 2010 and 2011. He received seven years on each of those charges, and they will be served concurrently after he finishes serving his time for killing Mr. Wing.
In addition to his prison sentence, Trimm was ordered to pay a total of $8,196 in restitution, $1,800 in court fines, fees and surcharges. He will be eligible for parole in aproximately 27 years.
