Second, I want to express how difficult it is for DS or myself to bring ourselves to ask for donations to help keep this a free site for all who enjoy it. We truly appreciate when members do this on behalf of SI, or to even go to the effort of staging fundraisers like many of you have done in the past. These fundraisers generally produce enough funding to keep SI operating for several months at a time.
DS and I, along with feedback and suggestions from the staff, have developed some additional features that we feel may be of interest to you. Along with these new features we are also going to make a change to how we handle access to the Investigative Tips forum for any new members that activate their memberships from this point forward. If you have already activated your membership then this new access restriction does not apply to you.
These changes are an effort to capitalize on SI and make it a self-sustaining non-profit organization. We have put together a series of packages that members may find appealing enough to donate to gain access to.
Effective immediately, the following changes have been implemented:
These upgrades are available now for members donating via credit card on our new secured upgrade form here. This link is also now available in your profile and you can also choose to sponsor another member by using the link located in their profile.
We are hoping this upgrade will generate enough interest to pay overhead and possibly allow us to start an advertising budget to make the public more aware of our community.
We will discuss this further and let you know if we come up with a solution.
Are these changes why I cannot view posts unless I am logged in? I'm sure your working on it. Any thoughts into going further back into the archives then 2008?
Appears to be the same in Firefox (14.0.1) and IE (8).
Many positive thoughts.

I'm looking into this.
Broken <3, you will be able to view your posts that have already been archived once you upgrade.
For those who have already upgraded to Platinum. You can view your archived posts by going into your profile in the SImplicity versions of SI.
and to be able to see my first posts...priceless!
Thank you DS and MH.
Very cool stuff.
is this per account?
This is per account so both profiles would have to be upgraded. However if you choose to only upgrade one profile to Platinum, the other profile's posts will be visible in the archives for any threads you have both posted to.
I think I have many thank yous to give for those who helped me out so long ago...

Lance Deeter makes a tackle in an earlier game. He has been a bright spot on the struggling team with his hard work and presence on the field for the Dinos. The Dino's next game is at home at 7 p.m.
Many teams have been crushed by the Juan Diego Soaring Eagle football squad this season. Carbon was their latest victim in a 58-6 loss. The good news is that Carbon did not join the fate of three other teams as they avoided a shutout with a fourth quarter score.
The Dinos held the Soaring Eagle offense to seven points for most of the first quarter. Then with just two minutes remaining things got crazy. Suddenly the Dinos were down by 29.
Carbon held Juan Diego to nine points the rest of the half. In the second half of play the Soaring Eagle kept the pressure on, but only put up 13 in the third. In the fourth it was another long pass from Blake Najera to Tysen Stevens that put the Dinos on the board to avoid the goose egg.
"Wish we could have had that early in the game." said Coach Leo Paur. "Lance Deeter had another great game as did Tysen Stevens. And Blake Najera, bless his heart, in his first year as quarterback he has really stepped it up. The team is just so young, I have hope for the future."
He is looking ahead to the last game Friday with North Sanpete. "They have two wins, but we can still beat them. Our team has not given up. If I knew at the beginning of the season what I know now, I would have done things differently. We are back down and many of the kids who joined mid season quit already. I think I should have stayed with a small squad."
Friday night's game will kick off at 7 p.m. at the Carbon High field.

(I'm really not sure where to be posting this, as this forum is for the plugins and scripts, but I couldn't find a place for errors with the program itself!)
I had GIMP 2.6, and used it for a year or two, when one day, it decided not to work. I'd hit the button for it, and the loading screen would appear for an instant, then disappear, and the process would also be gone in Task Manager.
Annoyed, I changed to other programs for a while.
Recently, I saw that GIMP got a major update, and updated to 2.8. And it's having the same problem.
First time I tried starting, it died. Tried again. Died.
Then I ran the installer again. Still dies.
I uninstalled, restarted my PC, reinstalled. Still dies.
Just now, I tried uninstalling it, deleting every GIMP folder I could find, and ran CCleaner, then reinstalled it.
And it still dies.
I've also tried a portable version of GIMP 2.8: Same problem.
Anyone know what the problem may be?
EDIT: Fixed by going to Start>Settings>Control Panel>Regional and Language Options>Languages>Details...>Advanced>Turn off advanced text services.
If you have changed your mouse without updating the drivers you need to update them. Same with any other hardware.
If that doesn't work, or you have not changed any hardware before the gimp start up issue began, then remove the entire set of RC files found in USER\.gimp-2.xx folder and try to restart Gimp again. One of these should fix the issue.Most likely it's a driver update.
A mouse is probably a bad example for this, as you generally do not install any drivers for them, they just work. The only issue you might have is that you won't be able to reassign the meaning of the buttons.
Actually i had a user at GimpChat.com that needed help with this same issue.It turned out to be mouse hardware drivers that never got updated as they thought they didn't need to either.
I am not sure what your problem could be other than a correct environment variable value.
Have you checked to make sure you have the correct version of Gimp installed? 32 bit or 64 bit.
Is it installing in the correct program directory? Windows now has a 86 and a regular programs directory if you have 64 bit system.All i can add is try Parthas installer.
http://www.partha.com - His are usually the latest GIT build and seem very stable to me.
Start Gimp verbose and see what the console window says.
- As Rod said, Start Gimp verbose and see what the console window says.
- Open the DOS command (cmd) and type:
cd /D C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\bin (The path may be different.)
and then type:
gimp-2.8.exe --verbose
(or just add --verbose after the path in the property of your shortcut and start Gimp)
- To see all the options:
C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\bin>gimp-2.8.exe --help-all
- Copy / paste the result on this site so that we can help you.
- For the moment, I do not see anything abnormal.
Event the following message is normal:
"Trying Splash 'C:\Documents and Settings\User\.gimp-2.8\gimp-splash.png' ...failed"
=> Gimp checks if you have your own image in this home directory before putting the default "gimp-splash.png"
- I should have known that the window would be closed because of the crash. ;)
Try to redirect the console log to a text file.
- Open the DOS command (cmd) and type:
cd /D C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\bin
and then type:
gimp-2.8.exe --verbose >C:\tmp\log_cryolu.txt
("C:\tmp\log_cryolu.txt" or what you want,
but of course, be careful not to name the file as an existing file, as this will overwrite the contents.)
- Open the created file and copy the content on the site
notepad C:\tmp\log_cryolu.txt
- So, you should read the interesting comments of these topics if it is not already:
Crashes loading fonts:
Crashes upon Starting Application:
- Is GTK environment is up to date?
- No message window when the crash happens?
- Nothing in the event viewer?
gimp-2.8.exe -d -f --verbose>C:\tmp\log_cryolu.txt
Maybe it would work with Gimp Portable, but I've never tried it myself.
Love GIMP, updated to 2.8.6 from an earlier version and it would flash and disappear. Originally showed the Windows DEP window, about needing to approve changes or something of the sort... Installed, uninstalled... fooled with DEP settings. Drove me nuts for quite a while...
The simple change in your EDIT worked... thank you... thank you... thank you
And re-enabling that setting causes it to fail again? This is very important to know - reintroducing the assumed error condition to resume a problem is very important in debugging, because that helps to narrow down the real fix, which might be a unexpected by-product of the assumed fix.
In general, this can't be a widespread problem - these reports are the only ones I recall seeing about that.

I was more than pleased to read David Carrier's letter to the editor concerning the petition for ethics reform in the Utah State Legislature. I certainly back him in urging all registered voters to sign the petition. This is something long overdue.
I would also like to take this opportunity to remind Carbon voters of another petition in the initiative process now being circulated state-wide. This concerns the establishment of a non-partisan, independent commission tasked with the re-districting of the legislative districts in the state for legislative representation. This process, by law, takes place after the census figures on in each 10 years, the 2010 figures upcoming. The state legislature has the power for re-districting now and this has developed in an unbelievable gerrymandering of the districts to protect the prevailing political party holding the advantage at the time.
Consider what we in Carbon County have had to put up with. North Carbon, Helper, Spring Glen, Kenilworth, Carbonville and the Westwood area were in a house of representatives district which also include northern Sanpete County, a portion of southern Utah County and Juab County.
For the senate district involving Carbon County, we were put in a district that includes Emery County and a portion of Utah County. It is quite obvious the focus of this outrageous gerrymandering process is to get rid of any possible Democratic representation by including Utah County with Carbon.
The state legislature has made the success of an initiative more difficult than ever by requiring at least 10 percent of the signers be residents of 23 of the 29 counties in the state to get it in on the ballot. This obstacle can be overcome, however, as evidenced by the success of the anti voucher petition recently.
May I urge all registered voters in Carbon to make an effort to sign both of these initiative petitions in order to get them on the ballot in the next general election that will take place in November of 2010.

BLOOMINGTON, Minn. - In the middle of what's expected to the busiest day in Mall of America's history was the Green family of Eagan in the middle of perhaps one of their busiest days.
"We do have a plan in place, said Alexis Green."We have all these little ones, so we have to have extra eyes."
They brought their two kids, their grandchild, a nephew and niece and their grandmother.
"(We're) taking advantage of Black Friday. That's what we want to do. There are a lot of good deals," added Darrym Green.
Yet a year ago, they thought twice about coming here.
That's because in December a chair-throwing brawl at the Mall of America made national headlines. It involved about 200 people, mostly teenage children. Ten people were arrested. Police called it the worst case of violence at the mall in more than 15 years.
"Some of that did have an effect on my willingness to come here," said Alexis.
But for the first time, Mall of America expanded its curfew hours this year to "Black Friday" in part because of the melee.
"There were a number of reasons that led to our expansion this year and that was one of them," said mall spokesperson Dan Jasper.
He says security turned away only a couple dozen kids who were unaccompanied by an adult Friday, that's out of about 200,000 shoppers who were expected to take advantage of the midnight opening.
"Regardless of if a few people might do something wrong, this is still the right policy to have in place because kids need to be with their parents," he said.
The curfew, which is already in affect on Friday and Saturdays, requires children younger than 16 to be accompanied by an adult 21 years or older. The same restrictions will also happen during the week between Christmas and New Year's.
"We see that and we feel safe," said Darrym Green.
His large family has no complaints.
"Unfortunately some people who have good intentions have to suffer, but it's for the greater good," said Alexis of most teens.
Because the only arguments her family witnessed Friday were about what deals they should go after next.
"They're out there. We just got to keep looking. It's a pretty big mall," said Darrym with a smile.

CANTON Responding to sharp criticism Thursday evening, Canton Central School board President Barbara B. Beekman defended the boards decision to informally discuss a merger request from Hermon-DeKalb Central School in private rather than during the public session.
The request, sent last March by Hermon-DeKalb Superintendent Ann M. Adams, was first discussed at a school board officers meeting in spring 2013 attended by Mrs. Beekman, board Vice President Victor N. Rycroft and district Superintendent William A. Gregory.
At the following school board meeting, the merger request was mentioned to other board members in executive session, Mrs. Beekman said.
The request was not placed on the public agenda because Canton officials had already decided that pursuing a merger with Potsdam had the best chance of winning approval from the public, she said.
We have two college towns and a preponderance of people who value education, Mrs. Beekman said. They are different than a farming town, for better or worse.
Also, when Canton received the Hermon-DeKalb request, Hermon-DeKalb was pursuing the idea of a regional school district while also putting out merger requests to Gouverneur and Edwards-Knox central schools. Canton school officials did not write back, but Mr. Gregory told Ms. Adams that the Canton board was not interested, she said. Canton had already started down the path of examining a merger with Potsdam, Mrs. Beekman said.
We thought about what would make the most sense, she said. Its a long, involved process. Weve got one shot here, and we thought about what was most likely to be successful.
During public comment Thursday night, Scott M. Davis, Eddy-Pyrites Road, accused the board of breaking state open-meetings law by discussing the Hermon-DeKalb merger request in private.
Not only does this type of action have the potential to open liability for this school or the board, it is the exact recipe for distrust and dissension amongst the board members, Mr. Davis said, reading from a written statement. At this time, you are in discussions of a merger but now you have given the taxpayers of this district full reason to question the transparency of this board and its integrity.
Mr. Davis first raised his concerns Monday during a town hall-style meeting about the proposed merger of the Canton and Potsdam school districts.
Mrs. Beekman said the board did not take any vote on the merger request in executive session, nor does she believe the open meetings law was violated.
I think were a very transparent board, she said. I have no qualms about what we discussed in executive session. We are not illegally conducting business behind closed doors.

BUFFALO - Newly-elected Buffalo Public School Board member Carl Paladino once again called for Superintendent Pamela Brown's resignation, issuing a letter Thursday deeming her performance "pathetic and amateur."
Paladino also claimed Brown had "no experience supervising or managing school systems" before coming to Buffalo and "isn't certified in New York." However, board member Barbara Seals Nevergold claims Brown is in fact certified and says Paladino's letter is full of "inaccurate information."
"Dr. Brown is certified by New York State. She has been a principal. She has been an administrator. She has been a deputy superintendent," Seals Nevergold said. "There are a number of inaccuracies in the letter."
"She has my full support."
Mayor Byron Brown, who does not directly oversee the public school district but of course serves as the city's figurehead, told 2 On Your Side he did see the letter but did not offer much commentary on the matter.
"I think it's critically important for all stakeholders to work together in a positive manner for the best interest of the children in the city of Buffalo," Byron Brown said.
Since his election to the board in May, the former gubernatorial candidate and current developer has called for Brown's resignation on more than one occasion. He declined an interview with 2 On Your Side.
A spokesperson for Brown said Thursday evening that the Superintendent had sent out a media release and looks forward to working with the new board.

Hal Fredrickson Anderson
PRICE - Hal Fredrickson Anderson, 76, passed away suddenly on March 23, 2010 at his home in Price. He was born Aug. 8, 1933 in Mohrland to Neldon Frederick and Velma (McKee) Anderson. He is a member of the LDS Church, where he was a High Priest, Sunday School President and Ward Mission Leader, with several other callings. He married his sweet heart Velora (Anderson) Anderson on Aug. 29, 1956 in Wellington. Their marriage was later solemnized in the Manti Temple on their 25th anniversary.
He was raised in Huntington. He loved to hunt, fish and go camping which he has not been able to do for a long time; he sure did miss it. Hal was also a great mechanic and could fix almost anything placed in front of him. He was always finding something to tinker with, even ending up falling off the carnival ticket booth while helping out his grandson. He was always there to help anyone that needed it. He worked in the coal mines for nearly 50 years, mostly at Hiawatha. There he was a face boss and a shift boss for most of those years, although under different management. Prior to his mining experiences, was seriously injured in an accident while working on the building of the Flaming Gorge dam. His biggest joy in life was his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
He is survived by his wife, Velora of nearly 54 years; five children, Ronald and (Rondolyn) Anderson, Nampa, Idaho, (Dennis) Cindy Marshall , Price, (Bill) and Nelda Callor, Sacramento, Calif., (Richard) and Dorothy Galberth, Salt Lake City, Rodney [Scott] and (Michelle) Anderson, Price; 28 grandchildren; and 31 great-grandchildren, with new arrivals coming soon; three sisters, Ramona Zmerzlikar, Martin; (Richard) and Marlene Peterson, New Mexico; and (Bill) and Sandra Nichols Price.
He is preceded in death by his parents; two brothers, Jerry and Harry Anderson; and two grandchildren, Shawn and Jennifer Anderson.
Funeral Services will be held on Saturday, March 27, 2010 at 3 p.m. at the Price 11th Ward Chapel (3rd West and 5th South). A viewing will be held on Friday, March 26, 2010 from 6 - 8 p.m. at the church and on Saturday from 1:30 - 2:30 p.m. prior to the services at the church. Interment will be in the Cliffview Cemetery in Price. Services are in the care of Fausett Mortuary. Friends and family may sign the guestbook and share memories of Hal online at www.fausettmortuary.com

By ROBERT L WARRENEast Carbon
His approval rating is in the toilet. His re-election numbers are abysmal for an incumbent president at this point in his term. He has stated that he is giving up on white, working-class Americans. The economy, regardless of how he tries to sweet-talk it up, is lethargic at best. His "foreign policy" is a joke. Independents and his own people are deserting him in droves.
Obamacare is still unpopular, and his numbers will fall even further after it is declared unconstitutional. Of course, the Obama attack machine (campaign and left-wing media) will immediately go to town after the Supreme Court announces its decision and try to whip up the base with frightening rants about the end of Roe v. Wade being just one vote away.
The Catholic Church has taken off the gloves over the President's attempt forcing them to provide insurance that includes coverage for abortion-inducing drugs. They are attacking him from the pulpit with a television commercial that is to the point and hard-hitting.
A fashioned campaign to remind Americans of Obama's Operation Fast and Furious, the policy of selling automatic weapons to the Mexican drug cartels. The president's laudatory comments about 'Occupy Movement' while showing such protesters defecating on police cars. Oh yeah, lets show the clip of Leon Panetta telling Congress that the administration doesn't need congressional approval to send troops into conflict just the approval of United Nations and/or NATO; Americas true enemies.
Hopefully, the President's completely unconstitutional, unilateral declaration of amnesty for millions of free-loading illegal aliens will be at least referenced in the campaign.
And if all this isn't enough, just keep showing Obama when he thought his mike was cold, lean over to a Dimitry Medvedev, the Russian president, and explain that after the election he will be more "flexible." Medvedev then promises to deliver that message to Vladimir Putin, the former head of the KGB. Selling America's missile defense down the road.
So with this in mind, the administration's "Justice" Department is working overtime to aid voter fraud everywhere possible. They are suing states that have passed voter ID laws because the president's re-election strategy is based on winning those deep blue states and enough "battle ground" states to get to 270. His campaign believes that he has 196 electoral votes from 16 reliably blue states. There are 13 swing states, and if he were to take just five - Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida - he wins. That's why the push is on to get as many illegal alien and phantom votes tallied by ACORN in the big city swing states. These cities are usually Democratic strongholds with large immigrant and welfare-recipient populations. They are the folks Obama's team is counting on to tip the balance and deliver their state's electoral votes.
Then we will all be able to watch in horror our unconstrained electee, in his second term finishing the demise of America, for-filling his pledge to "thoroughly transform America."

The Jacqueline M. Walsh School for the Performing Arts in Pawtucket and North Smithfield High School were among the 24 schools Tuesday designated as 2013 commended schools, the highest classification in the Rhode Island Department of Education's annual public school rankings.
So-called "commended" schools have the highest index scores in the state, no achievement gaps and are recognized because of either high performance or for making significant progress.
To determine the 2013 school classifications, which were released Tuesday, the department used what is known as the Rhode Island Accountability System, which is designed to recognize outstanding performance and support low-achieving schools. This is the second year the classifications have been used.
The annual accountability system provides state education officials with a way to focus on achievement gaps, diagnose school performance by identifying specific shortcomings and achievements at each school, and provide each school with the specific support or intervention needed to improve student achievement and to close achievement gaps.
The classifications are based on specific criteria, including proficiency, progress, growth and improvement and graduation. Using these measures, the department places each school into one of six classifications: Commended, Leading, Typical, Warning, Focus, or Priority.
"Our accountability system, which the U.S. Department of Education approved last year, provides us with a snapshot that shows where our schools excel and where our schools need resources and support," Education Commissioner Deborah A. Gist said Tuesday. "We have been working hard with our lowest-achieving schools – to help diagnose their challenges, identify needs, and take the necessary steps to turn around performance. So far, we have seen some examples of progress, and we expect the pace of improvement to advance dramatically in the coming years."
Of the 279 classified schools, the state identified 24 schools - about 9 percent – as "commended." Among the 12 newly identified commended schools this year are North Smithfield High School, the Jacqueline M. Walsh School for the Performing Arts in Pawtucket and the Blackstone Valley Prep Elementary Charter School in Cumberland.
Some of the other commended schools this year include the Blackstone Academy Charter School in Pawtucket and the Community School in Cumberland.
At the other end of the spectrum, 28 schools in Rhode Island - about 10 percent - received the state's lowest ratings in an evaluation of their performance, including 21 "priority" schools and seven "focus" schools. Priority and focus schools are designated as those schools that will require state intervention, including a diagnostic screening process to determine strengths and weaknesses.
Among the 21 priority schools raked this year are Central Falls Senior High School and the Dr. Earl F. Calcutt Middle School, both in Central Falls; Shea Senior High School and William E. Tolman High School, both in Pawtucket; and the Agnes B. Hennessey School in East Providence.
Among the four schools newly classified this year as focus schools is the Veterans Memorial Elementary School in Central Falls.
All of those schools are designated for state intervention and must come up with improvement plans. The 41 "warning" schools that RIDE identified Tuesday must also develop and implement plans for improvement, but on a lesser scale and without intensive state oversight.
Area schools in that warning classification include Woonsocket Middle School and the Bernon Heights, Citizens Memorial, Aram J. Pothier and Harris Elementary Schools in Woonsocket; Garvin Memorial School in Cumberland; the Ella Risk Elementary School in Central Falls; the Nathanael Greene Elementary School, Goff Junior High School and Henry J. Winters School in Pawtucket; and the Emma G. Whiteknact Elementary School, James R.D. Oldham Elementary School, Kent Heights School and Orlo Avenue School in East Providence.
"Through the school classifications we released today, we honor the schools that have advanced student achievement and closed achievement gaps," said Board of Education Chairwoman Eva-Marie Mancuso. "These classifications will also help us focus our efforts on providing support and guidance to the schools most in need of improvement. On behalf of the Board of Education, I extend congratulations to our commended schools and leading Schools, and I pledge that we will work together to improve achievement levels in all of our schools."
"I am glad to see that a large number of schools from communities across the state have earned the designation as 2013 Commended Schools," added Governor Lincoln D. Chafee " I congratulate the students and teachers in our commended schools on their accomplishments, and I expect them to lead the way as we continue to move Rhode Island schools toward greatness."

Many return even earlier than their contract dictates to put together lesson plans, decorate their classrooms and otherwise get ready for students. It takes a lot of planning to keep a classroom operation running.

In Minneapolis, walls aren't just walls. We like to bend them, shape them, and sometimes even mix and match what we make them out of. History blends with innovation, so come check out some of the most unique structures in the nation.
Take in breakfast at Key's in the historic Foshay Tower, which was once the tallest skyscraper west of the Mississippi and is now the W Hotel. Next, stroll down to the Minneapolis Central Library. Designed by Cesar Pelli, the facility is composed primarily of transparent and translucent glass, with Minnesota-themed accents. While you're there, take a free tour. If you're more in to more historical architecture, hit up the Wells Fargo Center: also designed by Cesar Pelli, the building opened its doors in 1989 (over 20 years ago)! Inside, you'll find the Wells Fargo History Museum where you can learn about the bank's history (chock full of intrigue, wild west robberies, etc).
Head down to the Walker Art Center. A 2005 addition to the museum designed by Herzog & de Meuron doubled the size of the complex. After you're through there, take in a little sculpture just a few steps away (and for free) at the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden.
Take in a show at the Tony Award-winning Guthrie Theater—filling an amazing structure (The New York Times calls it a "21st century dream factory"). Designed by Jean Nouvel, the building has three separate theater stages, numerous bars, a restaurant and an "endless bridge" that offers spectacular river views.

Four days into the worst crisis to hit the island nation since the 1974 invasion by Turkey, Cyprus' lawmakers did the unthinkable and the unprecedented Tuesday: In voting unanimously to reject the levy on bank savings mandated by EU authorities in Brussels to pay for a bailout, Cyprus has become the first country to openly defy the will of EU financial Powers That Be and the international banking cartel that they serve.
The crisis in Cyprus is rapidly evolving into a financial confrontation between Russia and the EU, since Cypriot banks are major repositories for Russia's wealthy nomenklatura (and not a few Russian gangsters, it is alleged). Moscow is now working feverishly with the government of Cyprus to reach an alternative deal whereby Russia would extend a needed loan to keep banks in Nicosia afloat, in exchange, perhaps, for access to Cyprus' newly discovered offshore gas fields. Cypriot authorities, meanwhile, have extended the "bank holiday" through next Tuesday, warning of calamitous consequences if no bailout is forthcoming.
Newly elected president of Cyprus Nicos Anastasiades remains adamant that some sort of austerity must be imposed on Cypriots to secure an EU bailout. Options under discussion include imposing the controversial levy on savings at slightly lower rates to make the confiscation more palatable, especially for small accountholders, and raiding the country's pension funds (another tried and true target for government looters when there's no more money to pay creditors).
Whatever the short-term outcome in Cyprus, the larger impact of the dramatic events in this tiny player in the EU's epochal debt crisis is only beginning to play out. Tellingly, the courage of Cypriots and of their legislature in openly defying Brussels bureaucrats is being touted continent-wide as an example for cowed and bullied populaces in the likes of Greece, Spain, and elsewhere, whose governments up until now have bristled at Brussels, but ultimately done the bidding of EU mandarins.

Video: Support Helping To Heal
SACO, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- When Terry Bragdon heard her friend Karen Rand had been injured in the Boston Marathon bombings, she panicked.
PHOTOS: Boston bombing victim
"I was just feeling for the family," she explained.
When she caught wind that Rand wanted to move back home to Maine to recover and be close to family, she went into action.
"She contacted me and said, 'I want to move home to Maine to heal. Would you help me find a house in Old Orchard Beach? I want to be in Old Orchard Beach close to my family,'" said Bragdon.
"My first thought was, I don't know how I am going to find her a house that is going to suit her needs," she continued. "You know there is a lot of older construction in Old Orchard Beach. It is going to be difficult."
Bragdon, a real estate professional, got to work, and contacted a few other people in the business to see what they could do. Once word spread, people started flooding her with phone calls and emails asking how they could help.
"So many people have called plumbers, electricians, landscapers, lighting companies, so many people have called to donate their time or materials," she said.
"I mean people have called saying I'll plant flowers, I'll bring food, I'll paint, I'll do finish carpentry, I'll do just anything needed, everybody is donating. It is just overwhelming," she added. "Every time I talk to Karen now, cause I have told her about it, she cries on the phone because she can't believe the generosity of people that don't even know her. Some of these people, most of them don't even know her and they are just willing to do whatever it takes to get her this home."
That includes Elliott Chamberlain, president of Chamberlain Homes.
"For somebody to go through such a tragic event, I think it is the least we can do to put her in a new home so she can have something she can count on and have a better living experience for what she has to deal with today," explained Chamberlain.
Now they are looking for more people to help them make this dream a reality. Bragdon is looking for the right parcel of land in Old Orchard Beach that is buildible, and is even considering properties where a home may need to be torn down to make this project happen.
Chamberlain is seeking out contractors from all the building trades that would be willing to donate time, materials or both to help build an handicap accessible home for Rand. He hopes once they find the right spot, they can get to work and have the house ready for Rand to move in to in the fall.
"I think good things are coming around for Karen because she has so many great friends and people that love and care for her," her brother, Dan Engelhardt stated.
"The hope is to get Karen a place to live in Maine, something that is appropriate for her current health situation," he added.
They have set up the Karen Rand fund for people looking to hep through donations at Town and Country Credit Union. People wanting to help financially can do so at any of their branches.
Bragdon is hoping someone will come forward with a plot of land that will work for the project, and while it does not have to be free, she hopes it will be reasonably priced so they can keep Karen from incurring any costs. She can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com if someone has an idea or an offer for her to explore.
In the meantime, Elliott Chmaberlain is gathering a team of contractors to get the job done. He says he will oversee the project from permitting to completion and encourages anyone in the building trades industry to contact him at firstname.lastname@example.com to get involved.
While the idea is just in its infancy, it is obvious to the people involved that Mainers want to help Karen Rand move back home and move on with her life.
"Karen is making really nice progress, given everything that's happened," her brother noted. "Karen is a really a strong person and I think sometimes strong people hold it in, but I think it has been coming out slow and sure and the doctors like that, that is something that has to happen."
What has made the biggest impression on Dan Engelhardt is how people have rallied around the bombing victims, and the positive energy and outcomes that have come about as a result of the tragedy.
"Karen is a very humble person," he said. "It is hard for her to really even wrap her head around people doing such things for her, but if there are people out there that have it in their heart to do it, I think that is a wonderful thing."

An AL East talent evaluator comments on the Orioles in Gorden Edes column:
"I tip my hat to the Orioles, they had a great year," the evaluator said, "but you wonder if they can do it again. They didn't make very many changes. They'll have [Manny] Machado for a full season at third, but he'll have growing pains, and they kept Nate McLouth, who'll probably platoon with [Nolan] Reimold in left. Will Danny Valencia, who they got in a trade from the Red Sox, make the team? And they also claimed Alexi Casillas from the Twins; he'll help in the infield.
"To me, the questions are with the pitching. [Wei-Yin] Chen had a great year, and [Jason] Hammel was pitching well until he had knee surgery. [Miguel] Gonzalez was a good sign. But they need [Zach] Britton healthy, [Brian] Matusz to pitch better. They also have to decide whether [top prospect] Dylan Bundy will be in the rotation. If the rotation is healthy and pitches well, then the Orioles will be in the mix."

A gem in the mixed Princes Street market. Very few places on the gauntlet of the high street offer you the service, speed and price of Snax which has stood the test of time over the years. Stuck in between excellent pubs and generic high street shops it can be easily missed, but difficult to forget.mcneillr, Edinburgh
Tasty food with friendly staff who are keen to have a laugh not expensive, my Dad and I both rate this cafe highly we keep on going back and back.scotsguy80, Edinburgh
This is a very pleasant cafe. To be honest, I was really impressed with how good the food was, and also at how cheap it is! I normally would never have ventured in, except for the recommendation of a friend. This cafe is quite small and hidden away, but I wasn't disappointed. Awesome!mrtomjones, Edinburgh
An excellent little cafe, whether you want to grab a quick bite on the go or sit in and have a big cooked breakfast this place should be considered, I've been many times and will be going back many more, very cheap and tasty food, i'm getting hungry for one of their bacon rolls just writing this!Marcos, Edinburgh
A student and workman hang out, Snax is a small Cafe with a warm atmosphere, friendly staff and fantastic food. Wither your on your way to a lecture (it is located 2 minuets from George Square campus) or a traffic warden popping in for a quick bit to eat, Snax's generous menu will have something for you... staff are always present and very friendly, leading to a very casual laid-back atmosphere...if your within a mile of this place, don't miss it - its the best breakfast/lunch cafe in Edinburgh.zippokovich, Edinburgh
Now this is what it's all about...the word that come into my head when I think of Snax aren't just ones like "tasty", and "affordable, but "honesty" and "integrity" as well....you will never, ever tire of a well-fired morning roll with egg and crispy bacon. Every builder, student, benefit cheat, suits and office drone who works within a mile of this place can't be wrong. Huge crowds aside, it's practically flawless.Gavin M, Edinburgh
What more do you want? Friendly service, decent food and great value for money. There's a queue, always a queue. But there's a reason for that. Serving a Big Breakfast, filled rolls, a Bigger Breakfast, paninis, the Biggest Breakfast...the list goes on and on. Something for everyone. And the coffee, very good coffee. Thank you!Lindsay O, Edinburgh

William E. Hall
While many sacrificed during the darkest days of World War II and many couldn't see the light at the end of the tunnel in the middle of 1942, an award for a naval pilot from the area brought spirits up and proved that Carbon boys could hold their own with anyone in the world.
In May 1942 the United States had only begun to strike back against the Japanese military, which had struck the devastating blow at Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941. Earlier in the year at the Battle of Midway the United States navy, while taking heavy losses had given the Japanese fleet an even bloodier nose. The swing was on the way up for the Americans.
Then came the Battle of the Coral Sea. Right in the middle of that fight was Lieutenant William E. Hall, a young man born in Storrs on Halloween 1913 and grew up in Hiawatha. The 29 year old pilot of a Dauntless Dive Bomber he helped in the destruction and sinking of the Japanese aircraft carrier Shoho on May 7 and then on May 8 on another mission, and greatly outnumbered he shot down three enemy airplanes, while he himself was critically injured and barely was able to bring his damaged plane back to deck of the USS Lexington.
Hall attended Wasatch Academy in Mount Pleasant and then went on to college at the University of Redlands in San Bernadino, Calif. According to an article in the Sun Advocate on Oct. 22, 1942, Hall came back to Hiawatha after graduation and taught music at the Consumers school for a year before joining the Navy in 1938.
The man was apparently a dichotomy; a mix of fighter and musical artist. While his majors in college had to do with music and art, his reputation amongst locals was that he was a scrapper. According to some he was in many fights as a kid and a teenager, usually coming out on top of any situation he was in.
After joining the Navy Hall went to flight training school in Florida and got his wings in the fall of 1939. At that point he was a naval aviator with the rank of Ensign. His first flying days off an aircraft carrier came when he was assigned to the USS Yorktown on which he stayed until February 1942. While on that carrier he was involved in raids concerning the Marshall and Gilbert Islands in the South Pacific. A short time later he was sent to the USS Enterprise and then later that spring on to the Lexington.
After he was wounded he was sent to San Diego, Calif. to recuperate. His injuries were extensive, but he slowly recovered and at the same time apparently fell in love.
In July 1942, while still not totally recovered, he got a two week furlough and came home to Hiawatha. He had someone with him, one of the nurses that had taken care of him. While in Hiawatha visiting his parents, he married Cristine Chapman.
His father, G.F. Hall was the preparations inspector at the Hiawatha King Coal Mine at that time.
Hall apparently was never sent back into combat but instead became a flight instructor at the Naval Air Station in Daytona Beach, Florida, then in 1944 was sent to another air station in Miami, Florida and then to Seattle, Wash. at the naval air station there.
He spent that last part of his active naval career with a special night attack unit in the western Pacific. However, it appears he never saw combat again.
After his discharge from active duty in 1946 he stayed in the reserves for 14 more years until 1960.
Hall went on to live a full life in the mid-west where he died in 1996. He is buried in the Leavenworth National Cemetery at Fort Leavenworth, Kan.
In October 1943 he was awarded the Medal of Honor by President Franklin Roosevelt. Hall then became only one of six native Utahns to ever win the medal which is more often than not is awarded posthumously.
He is also the only person from Carbon County who has ever won the Medal of Honor.`
(Some information for this article also came from the Hawaii Reporter from an article written about William Hall by Duane A. Vachon).

Clancy | 5 Weeks Old (and slight change of plans)
Well, the people in front of us actually hadn't decided on one of the other puppies, and selected Green Ribbon instead. Which opened the door for us to actually get our first choice all along.
Please allow me to introduce Orange Ribbon ... or, as he will be known from this point on, Clancy!
You can see that he is more orange / brown colored than the other two, which were both much lighter in color.
He should be arriving in about 2 weeks.
