By LES BOWENSun Advocate reporter
More than three months after Mayor Mike Dalpiaz announced Helper would not be participating in the Carbon Metro Drug Task Force, the city councilmembers questioned last week both the reasons for withdrawing and the legality of the mayor's actions.
With the support of Helper Police Chief George Zamantakis, the mayor notified the other members of the drug task force in a letter dated Aug. 29 that the city would not be part of the county-wide law enforcement agency as of Nov. 30.
The drug task force pulls much of the agency's funding from federal grants awarded to Price and the county along with revenues from the general funds of Price and Carbon government.
However, for participation in the drug task force, the remaining law enforcement agencies in the county pay a fee to cover utilities and rent for an office in Price.
Additional funds come from restitution from convicted drug offenders.
The task force works alongside existing law enforcement agencies, backing up investigations and supporting arrests, seizures and other actions.
However, Dalpiaz offered his opinion that Helper could better spend its participation fee of $1,500 on the city's police department rather than on the task force.
"I didn't ever think Helper got the bang for its buck from the drug task force," said the mayor.
Referring to his experience as a Helper city official, Dalpiaz indicated that the drug task force's effectiveness has been slipping in the past eight to 10 years.
Zamantakis agreed with the mayor's assessment and supported the city's withdrawal from the task force.
Zamantakis said the local police department has taken a lead role in drug investigations in Helper and would continue to do so whether the city was part of the drug task force or not.
"Our budget has taken a hit in the last four to five years," said the police chief.
Though not providing specifics, Zamantakis told the council that he had multiple concerns regarding the drug task force. The Helper police chief stated that, once the drug task force improved, he would be open to the option of the city police department's full participation in the county-wide agency.
"We can't help fix it by disengaging from the organization," countered Helper Councilmember Dean Armstrong. "Our withdrawal from the drug task force sends the message that Helper is not a good citizen in Carbon County."
Armstrong added that, although Helper may not have needed the task force's assistance recently, the situation could change.
Further, Armstrong contended that by participating in the task force, Helper was fighting drug problems in the surrounding communities.
"We're part of a larger community," pointed out Armstrong, adding that the city is affected by what happens in Spring Glen, Kenilworth and other unincorporated areas around Helper. "We're sending an isolationist message to the rest of Carbon County."
In addition, Armstrong and Helper Councilmember John Jones questioned whether the mayor and police chief have the authority to terminate the interlocal agreement governing the city's involvement in the drug task force.
Representative of Price city - one of the larger players in the task force also spoke in favor of Helper's continued participation in the county-wide law enforcement agency.
Mayor Joe Piccolo pointed out that Price city supports Helper's civic events and is willing to respond to Helper's requests for assistance.
"I believe what's good for Helper is good for Price city," said Piccolo.
The Price mayor also indicated that, if Helper continues to remain absent from the task force, he would support charging Helper for assisting in drug-related police actions in the city, up to the amount the city would pay annually if it were part of the task force.
No such policy is currently in place and Piccolo said that, for the time being, Price would offer assistance to Helper as if the town were a part of the task force.
Further, the Price mayor said the task force was never intended to be a primary law enforcement agency to combat a particular community's drug problems.
Rather, Piccolo pointed out that the task force is an ancillary force intended to provide support to the local agencies that lead drug investigations, seizures and arrests.
During the deliberation, Councilmember Chuck Buchanan said he had gathered multiple reasons why the city should participate in the task force.
Other than the cost, which he said could be justified, Buchanan indicated that he could not see one negative to Helper's involvement in the county-wide drug task force.
"Just because we are part of this county, we should be part of the drug task force," offered Councilmember Bob Farrell.
Farrell made a motion to rejoin the drug task force.
Farrell's motion received a second, but was ruled out of order by Dalpiaz before a vote could be called.
Armstrong and Jones added that if cost is an overwhelming reason not to be part of the task force, they would forego their own salaries - $200 per month - as councilmembers to help cover the cost.
City attorney Gene Strate indicated that there may be some validity to concerns regarding the mayor's legal authority to withdraw Helper from the drug task force without council approval.
The city's participation is governed by an interlocal agreement, signed in February 2000. Interlocal agreements are generally approved by the council.
If the council ratified Helper's involvement in the drug task force, Strate explained that a council action would be required to terminate the agreement.
Pending the city attorney's review of the interlocal contract and Helper's council minutes, Dalpiaz halted further discussion regarding the drug task force matter.

Alan Grayson Slams Racist Tea Party: If The Hood Fits, Wear It
By Stephen D. Foster Jr.
October 23, 2013
Alan Grayson has a new message for the consistently racist Tea Party crowd, and its a scorcher If the hood fits, wear it.
The Tea Party has never been more unpopular with the American people. As Florida Rep. Alan Grayson has pointed out, the Republican Party is hated more than dog poop. Since the Tea Party is far less popular than the GOP, that insult should sting even worse. But Alan Grayson isnt done smacking down the Tea Party. He has a new message for the consistently racist Tea Party crowd, and its a scorcher: If the hood fits, wear it.
Alan Grayson doubles down on comparing Tea Party to Ku Klux Klan.
On Thursday, liberal firebrand Alan Grayson told MSNBC host Al Sharpton that the Tea Party is no more popular than the Klan. Obviously, it wasnt long before Tea Party members whined about it and insisted that they arent a bunch of racists. In response to the ridiculous outrage expressed by the Tea Party, Grayson sent a statement to the Huffington Post. Not only did he stand by his previous remarks, he doubled down on them.
The Tea Party has engaged in relentless racist attacks against our African-American President, Grayson charged before going into detail.
For example, when the President visited my home of Orlando, Tea Party protesters shouted Kenyan Go Home. Other examples include Tea Party chants of Bye Bye, Blackbird, and Tea Party posters saying Obamas Plan: White Slavery, Imam Obama Wants to Ban Pork and The Zoo Has An African Lion, and the White House Has a Lyin African.
Grayson is correct about Tea Party rally signs being racist.
Grayson is accurate when he says that the Tea Party has been incredibly racist since it sprung up in the wake of President Obamas election in 2008. The fact that Tea Party rallies include multitudes of racist signs has been well documented. Just click here. Or here. And here.
Grayson called out Tea Party congressmen for racist rhetoric.
Clearly, Grayson makes an excellent point when he uses this example to back up his claim that the Tea Party is racist. He then went on to describe more outrageous behavior from Tea Party members, including Tea Party congressmen.
Tea Party members also have persisted in falsely characterizing the President as Kenyan and Moslem Tea Party members also called my fellow Member of Congress, civil rights hero John Lewis, a n***er, and Rep. Barney Frank a faggot. More generally, the leader of the Texas Tea Party displayed a poster saying Congress=Slave Owner, Taxpayer=Niggar [sic]. Tea Party Members of Congress have referred to Hispanics as wetbacks, and having cantaloupe-sized calves from picking fruit. Tea Party candidates, including my opponent in the last election, have endorsed forcing Hispanics to speak English.
The instances Grayson recounts about his fellow congressmen are true. In July, Iowa Rep. Steve Kingspoke offensively about hispanic immigrants. Three months earlier, Alaska Rep. Don Young referred to hispanics as wetbacks. So once again, Grayson is accurate and he concluded his statement with the biting exclamation point the Tea Party deserves.
One could go on and on, because there is overwhelming evidence that the Tea Party is the home of bigotry and discrimination in America today, just as the KKK was for an earlier generation. If the hood fits, wear it.
Grayson says he can go on and on about Tea Party racism, and hes right.
Ouch! Talk about telling it like it is. Tea Party members across the country must be throwing temper tantrums now. But lets actually go on and on like Grayson claims we can.
There was the time Texas Tea Party Rep. Louie Gohmert compared the civil rights of African-Americans to the rights of fish and lizards. Then theres the Arizona Tea Party rally where the crowd chanted Bye, bye black sheep and referred to Obama as a negro. And who could forget those racist anti-Obama shirts that were a hit at a Tea Party convention in January. Even a study found that Tea Party members were more likely to be racist.
If the Tea Party doesnt want to be called racist, they should stop being racist.
For years, the Tea Party has been a haven for racism. They proudly hold up racist signs, say racist things, and wave confederate flags at rally after rally. If the Tea Party really doesnt want to be seen as racist, why havent rally organizers kicked out attendees who carry racist signs or scream racist words? Why havent they denounced the congressman they support for saying racist things? Why do Tea Party leaders continually claim that President Obama is a foreigner? Why is birtherism still running rampant in the party? Why do they allow racist propaganda to be sold at conventions and rallies? Seriously, if the Tea Party doesnt like being compared to the KKK, the solution is simple. Stop being racist.
In his message, Alan Grayson described how racist the Tea Party has been since its founding. And its not a pretty picture.

WATERTOWN The primary election has yet to arrive, but national Republican operatives already are targeting the 21st Congressional District to reclaim a seat the party lost in 2009 to Rep. William L. Owens, D-Plattsburgh.
This comes amid reports that the National Republican Congressional Committee will cut off funds to Rep. Michael Grimm, R-Staten Island, in the wake of a federal indictment.
The New York Post quoted NRCC Chairman Rep. Greg Walden, R-Ore., as saying that the NRCC will hold off on Grimms campaign until the embattled congressmans legal matters are sorted out.
The Washington, D.C., political website The Hill quoted another high-ranking NRCC official saying that the committee may redirect funds from Rep. Grimms campaign to other contested seats in New York state, including that of Rep. Dan Maffei, D-Syracuse.
There also is word that money initially allocated to Rep. Grimm will be shifted upstate.
Unlike the DCCC, whose chairman seems to have written this seat off when he failed to mention the 21st District as a top priority in a recent interview, the NRCC views the 21st District of New York as one of the best pickup opportunities in the country, NRCC spokesman Ian Prior said in an email.
We intend to pursue every opportunity we have to maximize our chances to retake this seat historically held by Republicans.
Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee spokesman Marc Brumer reiterated his organizations support of Aaron G. Woolf, the candidate selected by Democratic chairpersons of the districts 12 counties.
The DCCC is proudly supporting Aaron Woolf, who is a strong candidate running in a district the president won in 2012, Mr. Brumer said. We will do everything necessary to make sure the people of this district who elected Bill Owens in the three most recent elections continue to be represented by a common-sense Democrat.
Mr. Owens initially was elected by a special vote in 2009 and won re-election in 2010 and 2012. He announced in January that he will not seek re-election.
Two Republicans, Elise M. Stefanik and Matthew A. Doheny, are vying for their partys nomination.
Ms. Stefanik is a first-time candidate while Mr. Doheny ran for the seat in 2010 and 2012.
Outside groups including Americans for Tax Reform, the National Republican Congressional Committee, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the Center for Individual Freedom and the American Action Network spent more than $2.6 million trying to dislodge Mr. Owens in the 2012 election.
According to OpenSecrets.org, a website focusing on government transparency, the NRCC spent $77,174 on behalf of Rep. Grimm during the 2011-12 campaign cycle.

The change of the seasons from winter to spring is a study in contrasts.
March: in like a lion, out like a lamb, they say.
April is the cruellest month, breeding/Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing/Memory and desire, stirring/Dull roots with spring rain, T.S. Eliot wrote.
And so it went, in more ways than one, at Dry Hill Ski Area on the last day of its season Sunday, which coincided with St. Patricks Day.
A warm January and a cold March mean the area has more snow on the ground than usual, while elsewhere in Watertown signs of spring are irrepressible despite the recent cold snap.
Look up and its all white, said owner Timothy L. McAtee. Look out from the top of the hill and its all brown.
Despite abnormally low temperatures, the sky was mostly clear Sunday conditions Mr. McAtee described as ideal for the final day at the ski area, 23682 County Route 67.
Were running all three lifts and tubing is open, he said. Were fully operational. You always try to end it on a good-weather day. With a winter this cloudy, any sunshine feels good.
Though the weather was welcome, in some ways it was too little too late.
If this were December 17 and I had this much snow and this weather, I would be packed, Mr. McAtee said.
The area experienced high winds, heavy rain and temperatures in the 60s during three thaws in December and January.
I wish we could have had a January like this March, Mr. McAtee said.
Because of that, the area ran its snow machines full bore when colder temperatures came around. It was all part of an effort to gain back ground lost last season when unseasonably warm conditions kept expenses high and revenue low.
All things considered, this year was much better than last year, which Mr. McAtee said was the worst hes seen since he took over the business before the 1982-83 season.
I spent a lot of sleepless nights that winter and spring thinking, What have I gotten myself into? he said.
Mr. McAtee is optimistic his mini-resort will continue to bounce back. And even though the slopes are now closed, the work will continue.
Equipment is put away, lifts are serviced and the slopes, which can be mowed only when they are dry, are trimmed in the spring, summer and early fall.
And with preparations for next season starting around Labor Day, before you know it, its time to start getting ready for the winter again, Mr. McAtee said.
Season passes go on sale at that time, and the business holds a swap shop where skiers and snowboarders can purchase new and used items starting the first weekend in November. And then, a week or so later, the area starts making snow before opening in mid-December.
Its part of a perpetual cycle that always seems to generate renewed interest.
Every ski season has huge promise, Mr. McAtee said.
And the change in seasons is good given that, to a large extent, his customers determine when the area opens and closes as interest waxes and wanes with the seasons start and end.
Id just like to thank the community all the people who came out, Mr. McAtee said. We had some great skiing. Have a good spring and summer and get excited for next season.
For Mr. McAtee, however, it was back to work. Sort of.
Even though it was the last day of the season, he had his ski boots on, ready to head out onto the slopes with an improperly attached lift pass to see if his staff would notice anything amiss.
Why? To have a little fun, he said.

Attorneys for George Zimmerman have filed a motion for prosecutors to face fines because the defense says the state has intentionally withheld access to evidence that tends to prove Zimmerman did not kill 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.
The motion comes on Thursday as the defense is also seeking a delay in Zimmerman's second-degree murder trial.
At issue: photos and text messages extracted from Martin's cellphone which the defense claims the state were "intentionally hidden" by the state. The defense released many of those items to the public Thursday after notifying prosecutors they are reserving the right to introduce them into evidence.
[READ: Reply to hearsay | Reply to opinion | gag order |
The defense is asking Judge Deborah Nelson to impose sanctions on the state because, it claims, the photos of drugs and a gun, and text messages about drugs, guns and fighting, "tend to negate the guilt" of Zimmerman. But the state has successfully argued against other sanctions motions in the past by showing the evidence the defense complained about is not, in fact, "exculpatory" evidence.
In its motion to delay the trial's June 10 start, the defense argues it needs more time because -- in addition to the texts and photos – the state sprung a last-minute surprise witness on them: "a purported expert in the field of speech identification."
On May 10, the state revealed a report from Dr. Alan Reich, who claims he can hear Martin begging for help in the background of a 911 call made during the struggle between Martin and Zimmerman on Feb. 26, 2012. Reich claims he can hear Martin say "I'm begging you" and "stop" during the fight. Zimmerman claims he is the one screaming for help.
While Reich had been properly disclosed as an expert in "speaker identification" – meaning he could attempt to show whose voice is heard on the tapes – the defense claims the state has improperly converted him into an expert on "speech identification," meaning he can discern the words that are being spoken.
Also Thursday, the state filed its third motion seeking a gag order preventing all parties from talking about the case publicly.

Zimmerman is charged with second-degree murder in Martin's February 2012 death in the Retreat at Twin Lakes subdivision in Sanford. He has claimed self-defense.

Upgraded with a piezo system, new finish, and a new neck shape.
With brilliant acoustics and a vast array of tones, the Hollowbody II has been a constant favorite in the PRS dynamic lineup of semi-hollow instruments. The combination of the maple top and back with mahogany sides provides tonal clarity and extraordinary resonance.
The Hollowbody II now comes standard with V12 finish, a Pattern neck and 57/08 pickups. The PRS/LR Baggs Piezo System is now standard as well, allowing you to plug into your PA or recording console and your amp at the same time.
V12 Finish
Finish should enhance the look, sound, and feel of a guitar by accentuating the wood's inherent beauty and feel without hindering its natural resonance. And PRS Guitars' new "V12" finish does just that. Introduced at Experience PRS 2010, "V12" is a very thin, hard, and clear finish that will not crack or react with thinners. After roughly 12 years in development, it is halfway between acrylic and nitro but with a classic feel all its own. "PRS models with this new finish feel like old instruments," said Paul Reed Smith.
Pattern Neck Shape
Neck shapes have always been a high priority for us and a hallmark of our quality. A guitar should feel comfortable, like "home," as soon as you pick it up, and the neck is paramount to that connection. Perfected after years of prototyping, the new "Pattern" neck is an updated Wide Fat PRS neck style based on Paul's pre-factory design. These necks were found on the instruments built for Carlos Santana, Peter Frampton and Howard Leese from the late 70's to the mid 80's.
Whether in woodworking, machining, or cast and die work, pattern making is the art of arriving at a perfect standard which can be duplicated or used to create new designs from by "offsetting." All of their necks came to be as a result of offsetting from this original, Wide Fat design.
A beautiful semi-hollowbody that's perfect for jazz and blues and beyond. Order today.

Comments about Rico Tenor Saxophone Reeds:
After trying so many boxes of the highest quality of reeds I find that I got more percentage of real good reed from this 25 pack. The sound came as no difference between these and the very most expensive reeds. No box has ever had per quantity of good reed like these. Why pay more?

Perfectly suited for accurate cuts, the Victorinox 43517 boning knife is small and lightweight while still providing the high-quality performance you've come to expect from Victorinox. At only 6 inches long from tip to handle, the flexible curved blade is small and narrow making it great for separating flesh from fish and working around the small bones of poultry. Stamped construction provides a thinner, lighter blade, and the patented yellow Fibrox handle is slip-resistant when wet to help you avoid unwanted slips and mistakes. Built to last and proven to perform, the Victorinox 43517 boning knife is an all around excellent addition to any cutlery set.

92nd Anniversary of Vimy RidgeShare Tweet
Today is the 92nd anniversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge, and along with fellow Canadians, Molson is honouring the brave soldiers whose courage and sacrifices won't be forgotten. The pin (above) was created by the Vimy Foundation to commemorate Canada's momentous victory at Vimy Ridge on April 9th, 1917 – the four colours representing the four Canadian Divisions who fought together for the first time. Red – First Division, Blue – Second Division, Grey-Blue – Third Division, Green – Fourth Division. The order of the colours reflects the positioning of the four Divisions facing the German defenses on the day of the battle.
Raising a glass to the heroes who served and are serving.
"On April 9, 1917, the Canadians did what other allied forces had so far failed to do – they took Vimy Ridge. At Vimy, regiments from coast to coast saw action together in a distinctly Canadian triumph, helping create a new and stronger sense of Canadian identity. After Vimy, the Canadian corps never looked back, and its success raised our international stature and earned us a separate signature on the Treaty of Versailles that ended the war."

What was your favorite moment you remember spending with your mom?
What things did your Mom do for you that were special?
What do you remember most about your Mom?
My mother was a character. She wasn't into being a "mom" but she was into living life to the fullest and that is what she taught me. She was fiercely independent and proud and she taught me that you cannot depend on others to take care of you. You must be self-sufficient in all ways, and make your own way in the world.
Mother used to proudly claim that she had never had a headache in her life. I suffered terribly from migraines and it was very hard for her to understand or be patient with me during my severe bouts. It was hard for her having such a sickly child as I was.
|Mom in her 80s
in S. Africa
That was the start of 10 years of constant travel. Every year she took one major trip - to S. Africa, to Russia, to China, New Zealand, back to Australia, to Denmark, Sweden, Finland and many other places. In between her big trips she took what she called "little jaunts" - to England, New York, British Columbia, Nova Scotia, Alaska... I can't remember everywhere she went, it seemed she was always off somewhere.
She usually went alone, sometimes she booked a tour, but S. Africa she did on her own which was very worrisome to me. Her last big trip was around age 90 when she and her younger sister went camping in the Australian outback for 2 weeks. Everyone in the group was in their 30s except Mom and her sister. When she came home from that trip she admitted that it was very difficult (unusual for Mom to admit something was too hard for her!) and that she didn't think she could do the big trips anymore.
At age 60 she learned to fly an airplane and was within a few hours of getting her pilot's license when she stopped the lessons. I don't know why, Mom would never let on she couldn't do something, but she might have quit simply because she only took the lessons so she could fly the ultralight that she and her companion were building!
|Godfrey, Mother & UltraLight
Another time she phoned from somewhere on the West coast of America, saying she was on her way to the Rose Bowl Parade. She and Godfrey had gone to Tim Horton's for a coffee and over coffee decided to get in the truck and start driving until they reached California. They didn't even go home to pack a toothbrush or clothes, they left from the Coffee Shop.
When she would visit me at my home she'd bring a tent and pitch it in my backyard. I was horrified the first time that happened, and begged her to come inside and sleep in my guest room. She refused, saying she preferred to sleep under the stars. I was very upset and told her the neighbours would think I was a horrible daughter. She smiled, patted my hand and said "Dear, just let me do my own thing"
And that was my mother - doing her own thing until her death at age 93. A character who led an active, full and interesting life!

Wilkinson, Giteau and Armitage combine for classic Toulon try vs Glasgow
Toulon beat Glasgow Warriors 51-28 in an entertaining match at the Stade Felix Mayol, taking a comfortable halftime lead before the visitors launched a comeback. Ten tries were scored, but this one finished by Delon Armitage was the pick of the bunch.
Star studded Toulon blew the Warriors away in the first half with four converted tries, powering away to a 34-0 halftime lead. But Glasgow came back in the second, showing why they are a force in the PRO12, something that key man Jonny Wilkinson said the home side fully expected.
"I wasn't surprised by the way Glasgow played in the second half," he said afterwards. "We had watched a lot of video and it had been hugely impressive. They look to me to be a very fit team with a great deal of understanding as well."
They claimed a four-try bonus point in the second half, showing great character to limit the damage and even looked possibly on track for a come from behind victory. The experience and might of Toulon told though, and the Heineken Cup champions were comfortable with the win in the end.
"We worked hard, built pressure and were able to get easy tries," said star centre Matt Giteau.
Giteau played a major role in Toulon's first try, as did Wilkinson, who caught a high ball excellently before a string of quality offloads set fullback Armitage up for a sprint to the corner. It was the try of the match but you can also view other highlights on page two of this post.
In other news, former Springbok and Bath scrumhalf Michael Claassens broke a bone in his hand and will be out for the next six weeks, meaning he will miss the upcoming Heineken Cup second round match against Cardiff, as well as a Top 14 clash with heavyweight's Toulouse.

I love the Top14 and what's not to like about Toulon, but to retain the title this year will be a bigger achievement than to have won it in the first place. Great clip.

We'll eventually see a Champions League. It will be a big deal and showcase some incredible rugby that will surpass 5 Nations and eventually Ranfurly Shield, and Currie Cup level play. It will be comprised of 100% mercenaries.
SH teams holding caps over the head of players to keep them home will not last past the next WC. Test rugby will diminish in import and club rugby will be the future.

Besides I much prefer the Super 15.
It would be interesting to have a club world cup so to speak every 4 years or so...
Also I think you are a bit out of date. There is no 5 Nations anymore. The Ranfurly shield isn't a competition just an important tradition involved inside the ITM Cup competition.
In terms of SH teams holding caps...??? Not a 100% sure what you mean but players who want to be picked for the AB's have to play for a NZ club. They have to be committed to NZ rugby. If they feel they have a chance of making the AB's they wouldn't leave as wearing the Black jersey is the pinnacle of success for Rugby in NZ. Young boys dream of putting it on like they dream of being superman. I would say this is similar in SA as well (not sure). I think this point of difference. Wanting to be part of the legend is what makes NZ rugby teams as good as they are. Nobody wants to be part of the AB's team that becomes second rate.

European clubs have more money than the NZRFU/SANZAR, the best players in the world will want to be the best compensated.

Look at it this way: You start school, you're an amazing player, you get noticed, you end up playing for Baby NZ's.. if you play so well you end up in the NZ first team aged 21 then great you're sorted, play a few years then go on a pilgrimage abroad to make some cash. But if you aren't picked for the All Blacks straight away, then what? How long do you fight? Of course giving up is never right, but perhaps cutting your losses whilst you're still great enough to make a fortune at club level might not be a bad thing.
As for the comment regarding a Champions league thing, you mention it not working due to travel time, this wouldn't be the case, because it would most likely all be in the Northern Hemisphere, where all the French teams are paying fortunes...

If you're going to do the swan lake over the white wash, at least earn it with some magic beforehand (of course this does not apply to props, who are always welcome to put on their swan wings and tiaras).
And for godsake don't be a tit and do it when a defender is almost on top of you.
Maybe that is just me.

Giteau is an oustanding player so he can get the offload that keeps the momentum going. As often in toulon great individual technique compensate the lack of collective strategy.
Clubman October 20, 2013 7:33 pm
'Clubs' seem to have been forgotten in the debates about rugby these days. If the game is to have a future, somebody should start to remember them and the sooner the better.

In a major victory for taxpayers in Iceland, an obscure transnational court ruled against the European Union and a similar supranational body last week, deciding that the tiny population of the island nation was not responsible for the massive liabilities of a private Icelandic bank that went bust during the 2008 economic meltdown. Establishment analysts blasted the decision as a "blow to global banking," but Icelanders and proponents of the free market celebrated the verdict as a big win for the people and market principles — after all, they argue, citizens should not be forced to pay for the reckless and potentially criminal actions of a few bankers, widely criticized as "banksters" in recent years.
The Luxembourg-based European Free Trade Association (EFTA) court, of which the Icelandic government is a member, issued its landmark ruling on January 28 addressing two key charges against national authorities. Despite Iceland's not being a member of the EU, one of the cases against the country was filed by the European Commission, a sort of "executive branch" in the sprawling, increasingly powerful, and out-of-control European superstate. The EFTA "Surveillance Authority" also filed a case alleging a violation of its rules.
The first complaint was that the Icelandic government failed to obey an EU directive ordering it to pay about $25,000 worth of "insurance" to every foreign depositor by extracting it from domestic taxpayers — a proposition that would have devastated the 300,000 or so Icelandic citizens and their already-ruined economy for generations to come. While the bankrupt bank's assets have been used to compensate foreign depositors, the EFTA court ruled that citizens were not responsible for the liabilities.
The EU dictate in question, which Iceland is supposed to subscribe to because of its membership in the European Economic Area (EEA), "does not lay down an obligation on the State and its authorities to ensure compensation if a deposit guarantee scheme is unable to cope with its obligations in the event of a systemic crisis," the EFTA court ruling said. The verdict is final and cannot be appealed to any other court, meaning Iceland emerged victorious after years after wrangling with authorities in Europe.

If cuddling furry animals, eating chocolates, riding ponies and buying toys sounds like paradise to your kids, then visit the Adelaide Hills.
Loaded with family holiday ideas, many of the attractions are free and educational too. Wildlife parks and family-friendly farmyards are scattered throughout the region, giving everyone a chance to meet the animals.
Cuddle a koala at Cleland Wildlife Park. More than 130 species of Australian wildlife roam freely throughout the 35 hectare (86 acre) park. Self-guided discovery trails take you through native bushland and around wetlands.
Child-friendly Hahndorf is another "must visit" destination, with more farmyard based attractions and South Australia's only puppet shop, the Hahndorf Puppet Shop.
While in Hahndorf, visit Hahndorf Farm Barn. Kids will love meeting the animals.
There are shop windows full of sweets and farms to pick berries and buy delicious jams. Watch chocolate being made the old-fashioned way. Better still, taste before you buy.
All kids love to climb, which makes the Big Rocking Horse and toy factory at Gumeracha a must. The same goes for Birdwood's National Motor Museum, where you might awaken some of your own childhood memories.
Everyone reads their child bedtime fairy tales. At Lobethal's Fairyland Village, turn that story into a three-dimensional experience. Follow a trail past 17 small huts and listen to each one telling a famous tale, such as Snow White or the Three Little Pigs.
The Adelaide Hills, write your own fairy tale.
Here are some great ideas for you to try while you're in the area.
There are plenty of events on in the Adelaide Hills. Here are some ideas you might like.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate community editor
Over the past couple of weeks I have been writing a series on many of the myths that people entertain about public education in this country.
During that journey I have learned a lot of new things, many of which I hope I conveyed to readers.
Myths about any subject come from peoples stories or their experiences. Then either the stories are told over and over again from person to person, or time changes the sense of what really was the truth.
The feeling by some that if schools could just go back to an 1800s philosophy of teaching "The Three R's" is simplistic to say the least. No one alive today can tell us from first hand experience what schools or even society was really like then.
Human beings almost always resort back to their own experience when asked to give an opinion on something. The problem with that is if we are not up on the facts of a matter we may either use old facts to make a judgement or we will use old feelings and memories, which puts emotion into the equation.
I've had some very long and strong experience working in the public education system for 14 years, from the 1970s through the 1980s. So I really thought when I began my research last spring into much of what is going on in schools that it would only be a matter of review.
It wasn't. Since I left working in the public schools in 1987, what happens in schools, how things are handled and the difficulties people face working there each day, have changed immensely.
Examples of what my experience working in schools was like and the reality today strikes me almost every week because earlier this year I became reacquainted with an old friend who worked with me in an elementary school in Salt Lake from 1980 through 1982. While I have gone on to other things, she has stuck it out working on that same campus since 1976. Today there are only three faculty members, including her, who are still there from the time I was employed in the building. In my conversations with her, she has taught me a lot about how things can change and often we don't even realize it.
First of all, when I left in 1982, the school had an economic base of mostly solid middle class households who sent their kids to the building each morning. Now the school is a title one school (largely economically disadvantaged kids).
In 1982 only once in a great while did a kid come into the school that couldn't speak English, and generally the language they did speak was Spanish. She said that now there are a number of language barriers with over a half dozen foreign language speaking students attending. She also told me that at another elementary school in the district there are a total of 28 different languages spoken.
Free lunch, once the exception, is now the rule in the cafeteria.
The requirements for employees have changed too. I remember dragging a kid to the office that was beating on a smaller kid one day. From my time and place that was the logical thing to do. Today there is a good chance I could be in trouble for physically doing that same thing. On the other end of physical contact, teachers can't hug kids either, despite children's need in time of stress to have physical contact from an adult.
The demands on teachers to prove themselves have become greater and greater. The state and federal requirements have become more stringent in what is required. While this may not be all bad, many very good teachers feel constantly under fire by the system, not something I sensed 20 years ago. That can't be good for classroom atmosphere.
Parents have changed too. In more and more families both work. There are also a large number of them that don't speak English (like their kids). Parents today also seem to know "their rights" more than ever. Nothing wrong with knowing your rights, but we all know what that attitude can lead to, too.
One of the things her school is seeing is an explosion of kids with learning disabilities. Whether it's diet, substance abuse by pregnant mothers, or other causes, it's not easy to tell. But it's a trend at many schools. Learning disorders puts a huge burden on regular class teachers and also jams up the pipeline wear special teachers, psychologists, social workers and the like labor to solve problems.
Disfunctional families are becoming an increasing problem too, with kids bringing more and more of their problems to school.
Not everything, however, is negative either. Some real inroads have been made into the problems of bullying and fighting (she said when she started playground fights were common, now they are very rare) and many students have been taught to take the responsibility to report threats and problems on campus.
In another area, sexual harassment policies have really changed how kids interact with one another, for the better.
The facts of life in education have changed and will continue to evolve as societal and governmental pressures increase. What is true today, may well not be true in 20 years, so there will be another generation of myths to cure.
I come away surprised by what goes on every time I talk with her. My experience is so old, little of it applies these days. Most parents are in the same boat. Their experience with school generally relates only to how it was when they went to classes from the 1960s through the 1980s.
It's a new world everyday in education. What was OK yesterday, isn't today.
Personally I'm glad it's a row I don't have to hoe anymore.

European court dismisses Solvay's appeal against hydrogen peroxide cartel fine
December 5, 2013 | Francinia Protti-Alvarez
The European Court of Justice (Luxembourg) has dismissed the appeals of Solvay, Caffaro (Torviscosa, Italy), and SNIA (Milan), and upheld a 2006 European Commission decision to fine the companies for their involvement in a hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) price-fixing cartel between 1994 and 2000, the court announced today. The fines, as a result, have become definitive for those companies. Other companies fined under the original commission decision included the former Edison and its then subsidiary Ausimont, which Solvay bought from Edison in 2002 to create Solvay...

World Heritage Volunteers
The World Heritage Volunteers (WHV) initiative was launched in 2008 to mobilize and involve young people and youth organizations in World Heritage preservation and promotion.
8 years of fruitful experience.
3500 volunteers
have participated
219 action camps
have been held
in 46 countries
around the world

organization and NGOs
The project continues to receive a considerable amount of attention on social media, raising awareness of World Heritage issues and volunteer activity opportunities among youths. The UNESCO World Heritage Centre coordinates the overall implementation of the initiative in collaboration with international and regional volunteer service organizations.
Youth Action Camps
The World Heritage Volunteers initiative consists of youth action camps, which are organized by local youth organizations or NGOs. The action camps generally last between two or four weeks, where young volunteers carry out concrete actions, comprizing both hands-on preventive conservation activities and information sessions on issues related to World Heritage, as well as activities carried out together with local communities. Each action camp accommodates some ten to thirty national and international volunteer participants.

Frequently Asked Question
World Heritage Volunteers
What is World Heritage Volunteers?
World Heritage Volunteers (WHC) is an initiative to raise awareness among young people of the importance of World Heritage conservation, and give them concrete skills by working on a project through an action camp at a World Heritage site. Each year some 50 action camps around the world are carried out which promote specific thematic such as Biodiversity, Sustainable Development, etc. For example, in 2013 there were 52 projects implemented in 52 World Heritage sites in 32 countries, involving 43 organizations and promoting Sustainable Development and the International Year of Water Cooperation.
Who selects and who organizes action camps?
World Heritage action camp projects are selected by UNESCO each year to be part of WHV, and each project is organized by local youth organizations, non-governmental organizations or heritage and education institutions.
Who can participate?
Generally, participants are students between 18 and 30 years old, but the requirements can vary according to the country and the project. To learn more about an action camp and the application requirements, you must contact the local organization in charge of that project (UNESCO does not accept applications).
Consult the list of projects planned for 2014, with contact details for applying.
Is it possible to volunteer at a World Heritage site another way?
UNESCO does not organize volunteer activities at World Heritage sites outside of the WHV programme. If you are interested in volunteering at a World Heritage site, you may wish to contact a volunteer organization (such as WWF, Greenpeace, etc.) in case they have a project that would interest you.
Or, you may wish to contact the National Commission for UNESCO in the country where you would like to volunteer, to see if they know of an organization that could help you.
Are there any other requirements to become a World Heritage Volunteer?
Volunteers are expected to contribute their share of the expenses, such as the cost of their travel to the site, and insurance. Food and lodging are provided by the host organization. Many assignments are in remote locations, and volunteers are expected to respect local customs. English is the recommended language for communication, but the language(s) used will mostly depend on the organizers and the country where the camp will be held.
For Organizations
How can my organization apply to run a World Heritage Volunteers project?
If your organization fulfills the selection criteria (see below), you should fill in the application form and send it to the relevant coordinating bodies. The report should be short and to the point, presenting a clear picture of the objectives and activities of the project.
When is the deadline to apply to run a camp?
The call for proposals usually starts in November or December, for the following year.
How long does the selection process take?
The selection process is usually completed in February, and the list of selected WHV projects is then announced.
What are the criteria for selection?
- The project is organized in immediate connection to a site inscribed on the World Heritage List or a site on the country's Tentative List.
- The project demonstrates best efforts to involve the community, site managers and local authorities in planning details of the activities.
- Activities include a systematic reflection on issues related to World Heritage as well as practical hands-on skills training for the volunteers.
- The project can be linked to the theme of the annual campaign.
- Organizers commit to implementing their projects as per approved proposals and to submit a full activity report, including images, videos and other results, demonstrating the concrete engagement of young volunteers in the field of World Heritage.
- The evaluation report of previous WHV projects carried out by the same organization has to be submitted in order for the new proposal to be considered.
What is the maximum number of projects the organization is eligible to apply for?
Each organization is eligible to apply for a maximum of 4 projects to be carried out in different sites or carrying different themes and activities.
What are the details I should pay attention to when applying?
In general, organizations should consider permits or authorizations to conduct activities in and around the sites, safety issues, accessibility and facilities available, accommodation, transportation, budget, partners and stakeholders, among other things. For more information please refer to the World Heritage Volunteers Project Cycle Practices.
Who will decide whether my project will be part of that year's World Heritage Volunteers campaign?
Coordinating partner(s) submit to UNESCO World Heritage Centre recommendations and comments on the projects for the campaign of the following year.
Will there be any financial support for the projects available?
Only a limited number of organizations shall receive UNESCO WHC financial support (not exceeding 500 EUR) for the implementation of projects. Priorities are given to projects implemented in Least Developed Countries or Low Income Economies as defined by the UN; a Lower Middle Income Country as defined by the World Bank or one of the Small Island Developing States (SIDs); in a State Party in a post-conflict situation and within the limit of available resources. Organizations requesting financial support are strongly encouraged to provide concrete information to justify their request.
How will organizations receive confirmation that they will take part in the World Heritage Volunteers initiative?
The official confirmation letter will be sent to selected organization, and the profile of the action camp will be published online, including UNESCO WHC webpage. Organizations participating in the World Heritage Volunteers campaigns shall also receive a UNESCO certificate following the successful implementation of the projects.
Will my project be monitored?
Each year UNESCO World Heritage Centre and the coordinating partners of the campaign undertake several monitoring visits to evaluate project progress and results and submit the reports to UNESCO World Heritage Centre.
How will media promotion of the projects be supported?
The promotion of the projects to a large audience through local and national media coverage will be facilitated by the use of promotional material during the projects and the authorization to carry the Patrimonito label which associates the action projects to WHV and the UNESCO World Heritage Education Programme.
Who is Patrimonito?
Patrimonito is the international mascot of the World Heritage Education Programme. The name means 'small heritage' in Spanish and the character represents a young heritage guardian. The Patrimonito character is based on the World Heritage emblem, and symbolizes the interdependence of culture and nature. The central square is a form created by humankind and the circle represents nature, the two being intimately linked. The emblem is round like the world, but at the same time, it is a symbol of protection.
Can I use Patrimonito and the UNESCO and World Heritage logo in my project?
Using the image of Patrimonito, or the UNESCO and World Heritage logo requires a strict validation process. Organizations participating in WHV are authorized to use the Patrimonito image to promote their World Heritage Volunteer action camp project. Prior written authorization from the World Heritage Centre is required to use the UNESCO and WHC logo and emblem in any publication, platform or format.
What is expected from the organization once the action camp has been held?
Each organization shall submit an evaluation report together with relevant documents and materials (images, photos, videos, media coverage, etc.).
Where can I find more information about the World Heritage Volunteers initiative and previous campaigns?

ECHA invites comments on hazard classification and labeling for DIBP
March 26, 2014 | Michael Ravenscroft
The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA; Helsinki) has invited comments on a proposal to amend the hazard classification and labeling (CLH) for diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP), the agency says. DIBP is used as a plasticizer for nitrocellulose, cellulose ethers, and polyacrylate and polyacetate dispersions. The public consultation will be open for 45 days and will end on 9 May. Comments received will be compiled into a list that will be annexed to the opinion of the committee for risk assessment (RAC), ECHA says. RAC will form an opinion only on the hazard classes that...

By JOHN SERFUSTINISun Advocate Reporter
Nobody hauls Dean Denison's trash away from his Scofield cabin. Nevertheless, on his property tax notice, right there in black and white, is a $75 fee for garbage collection. Denison asked around and found out that other cabin owners were also perplexed by the new charge.
So they decided to ask the county commission what was going on. They got some - but not complete - satisfaction.
"I bring my garbage home. You charge me $75," he told commissioners Wednesday. "I feel like I went to a free movie and then got charged for leaving the building." He went on to say that he and others like him don't use the dumpsters at the state park or elsewhere in the area because of the "birds, flies, odors and nails" that surround them.
Basically, he and others thought the whole arrangement was unfair because campers, boaters and tourists use the dumpsters but don't get charged. It's those who don't use them have to pay.
Denison and several others in the audience also said they hadn't seen or heard anything about the fee until it showed up on the tax notices.
However, Commissioner Mike Milovich replied that there were public notices and public hearings on the matter two years ago. The county had been looking for a way to cover the cost of hauling dumpsters from the Scofield area to the ECDC landfill and then paying the tipping fee of $22 a ton at the landfill, he explained.
For years, the population at Scofield and surrounding areas was not generating much garbage, he continued. But with growth came more trash. Since Scofield cabins weren't paying the cost, it meant that ratepayers in other parts of the county had to subsidize them. That was not small change: $36,000 according to Milovich.
To end that subsidy, the commission came up with the formula of adding up the cost of dumpster hauling and tipping, then dividing by the number of homes and cabins that hypothetically would use the dumpsters. That produced the $75 figure.
As for putting the tab on the tax notice, the commissioner said that was "the most expeditious and economic way of doing it." Paying for extra stationery and postage to send the fee notice out separately would add to the cost.
Milovich and Commissioner John Jones said they'd agree to revisit the fee to see if it is still accurate, but not to rescind it.
"We're not a brick wall. What's the cure?" Jones said, asking for suggestions on what to do to offset the cost. One idea was that the Division of Parks and Recreation should participate in the fees. Jones said the commission would look into that.
Cabin owner Frank Marrelli wondered why there was any fee at all, considering that all the owners already pay property tax. "I'm giving $861 a year (on county tax) but get nothing from the county," he declared.
Milovich countered that the county provides services like ambulance and sheriff, and noted that during the range fire two years ago emergency services responded in force to protect property.

Buzz Adams
Miguel de Montague "Buzz" Adams was born in 1992, the last in the noble Merovingian bloodline. As an infant, the young heir-apparent was kidnapped by Sardinian pirates and spent his formative years pillaging the high seas and eventually becoming the world's most deadly sword-fighter. In his late teens, Buzz entered a Tibetan monastery where he learned to levitate and mind-read. He also invented time-travel. After solving Fermat's Last Theorem at Cambridge in 1991, Adams relocated to El Paso, Texas where he has worked for KLAQ ever since. Buzz Adams was recently told to update his on-line bio and knows that no one in management will bother to check his work.
