60,000 travellers to pass through Belfast International Airport this weekend.
MORE than 60,000 passengers will pass through Belfast International Airport this weekend as the traditional summer holidays get under way.
The airport, which has just completed a major renovation programme, is preparing for another busy summer and passengers will see many changes as they make their way through the terminal building.
"We have many new catering outlets that have recently opened offering passengers excellent value and choice as they head off on their holidays. However as well as witnessing an exodus of mostly sun-loving travellers heading to global destinations, we are also getting ready to welcome tourists from all over the world." said managing director John Doran.
He added; "Despite the economic gloom and the poor weather it's clear our customers are determined to have a summer holiday and canny travellers are seeking good deals."
With so many people set to use the airport this weekend and indeed over the coming summer months Mr Doran advised customers to make sure they are aware of the parking arrangements at the airport and the currently enforced security measures.
"The best deals on airport car parking are available online by booking in advance on the airport website with spaces available from as a little as £5 a day," he said. "There is advice online about which car park to use depending on your length of stay.
"And to ease your passage through the airport please take note of the security advice available on the website concerning liquids and how they should be carried as well as the amount of hand luggage permitted.
"It's important that passengers realise that the hand baggage regulations can vary from airline to airline and you should check with your airline for specific hand baggage allowances."
Mr Doran said competition at the airport between the airlines was providing great bargains and choice to over 50 destinations.
"The strength of competition here between the airlines ensures the Northern Ireland traveller gets a good deal," he added. "We're looking forward to a busy summer."

Carrie Underwood Tour News and Updates
4/3/13 - Carrie Underwood's Blown Away Tour has sold out all 2013 dates. The Blown Away Tour broke records at the WFCU Centre as the fastest sell-out to date for the arena, as well as record-breaking attendance. Sold-out crowds of over 10,000 attendees were recorded at Buffalo's
First Niagara Center
, Hamilton, ON's
Copps Coliseum
, Spokane's
Spokane Arena
, and Fresno's SaveMart Center. Carrie Underwood tickets are averaging $153 for her remaining shows. In addition to seeing Carrie live in concert, you can catch her on American Idol tomorrow and at the ACM Awards Sunday. Underwood is nominated for Female Vocalist of the Year and Album of the Year (Blown Away).
Remember the blond from Oklahoma who had no vocal training and was belting out classics like Heart's "Alone" on American Idol? That was Carrie Underwood — now a multi-platinum selling recording artist, five-time Grammy Award winner and two-time ACM Entertainer of the Year. Carrie Underwood's third headlining tour, Blown Away, began in May 2012 with two shows in the United States. Her first World Tour then took her to Europe (where she sold out her London show in 90 minutes), Australia, and back to North America. The three-time Academy of Country Music and Country Music Association Female Vocalist winner will begin leg 2 in North America February 13, 2013.
Hunter Hayes
will join Carrie Underwood on Tour; Hayes is nominated for three Grammy Awards and was recently added to the Grammy Awards lineup.
In support of her fourth studio album, Blown Away, Carrie Underwood's set list includes popular singles "Good Girl," "Two Black Cadillacs," and the encore "Blown Away." In addition to singles off her newest album, Carrie Underwood live performances include 2x Platinum single "Jesus Take the Wheel," Underwood's first single from her album Cowboy Casanova, and 2007 Country Music Association Single of the Year "Before He Cheats." Carrie Underwood concerts have a history of selling out — her two previous tours, Carnival Ride Tour and Play On Tour, were attended by 2.2 million fans, wrapping both years as the top-ranked female country touring artist. Carrie Underwood tickets to her 2nd and 3rd North American legs are averaging $150 in 2013.
Carrie Underwood is known for giving back — the Country star donated $1 from each ticket sold on the North American leg of her Blown Away Tour to support Red Cross disaster relief. Last year at a concert in Des Moines, Underwood performed despite an illness but felt it was not up to par; as a result, she donated all proceeds from the night to a local charity.

Built for Skiers. The Atomic Skiwear Lookbook 14/15.
Atomic athlete Kilian Jornet came in first place at the Patrouille des Glaciers 2012. Struggling with warm winds, he and his team mates prevailed against the competition, winning the race with a clear margin.
The Patrouille des Glaciers is one of the classic races in competitive ski mountaineering. The race, organized by the Swiss Army, takes the athletes across a 53 km long course from Zermatt to Verbier. Approximately 4000 meters difference in altitude in ascents and descents, respectively, make the Patrouille des Glaciers one of the toughest mountaineering races worldwide. Due to the warm temperatures during the last few days and strong warm winds of roughly 80 km/h along the up to 3,500 m high track, the race had to be stopped midway through for safety reasons. As a result, the organizers counted only the course between Zermatt and Arolla. During the first ascent, a Swiss team took the lead; however, on the remaining lag of the race, together with his team ATOMIC athlete Kilian Jornet moved ahead of the field, winning the Patrouille des Glaciers in Arolla. The three-man team comprising Kilian Jornet, Wiliam Bon Mardion and Matheo Jacquemound performed a strong race amid difficult conditions. They would have probably won the race even if it had not been stopped midway through. "I am very happy about our victory. The Patrouille des Glaciers is one of the most important ski mountaineering races and finishing the competition with my team mates as winners means a lot to me," commented Kilian Jornet after crossing the finish line.

While the American Red Cross of Northern New York did not meet its Heroes Campaign fundraising goal, north country residents have been busy donating to local and out-of-county disaster relief services.
Chapter Executive Jane G. Gendron said that while the Heroes Campaign raised $2,000 of the $10,000 goal, many dollars have been sent to the Mohawk Valley to assist with relief efforts after late June flooding.
Our operation in the Mohawk Valley is ongoing, she said. It could be between $300,000 and $700,000; we just dont know what our cost is.
Many people, she said, have donated specifically to help residents of Oneida and Herkimer counties since the June 28 and 29 storms left many households and businesses there inundated with water.
At the same time, people also are contributing money toward help with future local disaster relief services.
Mrs. Gendron said a majority of local disasters are house fires, but assistance is provided for disaster relief during major power outages and floods, among other issues.
Any donation will help the agency, she said, including a $10 or $100 bill. One person dropped off $2, which was all he could afford, she said.
It all adds up, Mrs. Gendron said. People are caring in the north country.
The Heroes Campaign was conducted for the first time this year, from March to June. Mrs. Gendron said she hopes more residents of Jefferson, Lewis and St. Lawrence counties will become familiar with the campaign next year. Money raised from that campaign goes toward all programs and services the Red Cross offers locally.
Donations are always appreciated, she said, and may be dropped off as cash or check to the agencys office. Donors who would like their money to go toward a specific program or purpose can designate that on the checks memo line. Checks also may be mailed to American Red Cross of Northern New York, 203 N. Hamilton St., Watertown, N.Y. 13601.
Thousands of readers like you have made Northern New York Newspapers the number one ranked website* for local news and sports coverage in the north country.

John Shannon tweeted yesterday that any schedule that is created for a shortened season will feature only conference games.

today, we're introducing a new blog series called life is a classroom, where we will share lessons for being your most beautiful you. inspired by our amazing grace shampoo, bath & shower gel philosophy, our lessons will cover many subjects, including grace, gratitude, well-being, family, and the list goes on.
for our first subject, we felt it is only fitting to take a closer look at grace.
take a moment to reflect. have you encountered any tests of grace lately? disciplining your kids for something you wish they hadn't done, communicating effectively with your spouse, or perhaps layoffs were announced at work, and you were one of them. think of a scenario where your character was challenged. what was your reaction like? in that particular moment, would you have given yourself an A in the subject of grace?
often times, a test of grace triggers anger, frustration, defeat, embarrassment, etc. because of these emotions, a typical reaction happens instantaneously. we jump to a conclusion and spew our frustration, adding fuel to the fire and for most of us, regretting it almost immediately. it's okay, we're human, and without failing, we couldn't learn to succeed. building character takes time.
next time you face one of these tests, make an effort to practice grace, using these three tips:
- take a breath, or two, or many.
- listen to and observe the situation. this may take minutes, days or even weeks.
- react with grace. this may also take minutes, days or even weeks.
philosophy: life is a classroom. we are both student and teacher. each day is a test. and each day we receive a passing or failing grade in one particular subject: grace. grace is compassion, gratitude, surrender, faith, forgiveness, good manners, reverence, and the list goes on. it's something money can't buy and credentials rarely produce. being the smartest, the prettiest, the most talented, the richest, or even the poorest, can't help. being a humble person can and being a helpful person can guide you through your days with grace and gratitude.

Colleen S.South FloridaHairLight BrownNormal HairAverage Hair Dryer A Little OverpricedI was excited about reviewing the Galaxy Hair Dryer by Hot Tools because I needed a dryer with a diffuser. I want to say that I do have a great hair dryer that I also received from Folica and that could be skewing my feelings about this hair dryer.
Different settings-I do like that the hair dryer has several different settings to control heat and air flow.
Cool Shot-Having learned how cool shot an really set a style I think all blow dryers should have one.
Attachments-Dryer comes with concentrator and diffuser
I think for me personally it just took long for my hair to dry the heat and air flow was just not as good as my previous blow dryer. This is the main reason for my rating. I would consider this dryer an average hair dryer with a few nice options. However over all it would take me too long in the morning to do my hair using this dryer.4 out of 4 shoppers thought this review was helpful.

We had a butterfly party for my Year 6 daughter this April 2013 and Sarah and her partner were fantastic. The girls all dressed up in their best and made a real occasion of it. My daughter has continued to make earrings and jewellery (and now has her own tools) and it looks like becoming a very serious hobby indeed.

By TOM MCCOURTGuest contributor
At the Take Back Utah rally last Saturday, people were there from all over the state. The parade was two and three vehicles deep and it stretched for more than seven city blocks. Hundreds of jeeps, ATVs, motorbikes, pickup trucks, horse trailers and dune buggies followed state street to the capital building. There were farmers, ranchers, loggers, and even a big Savage coal truck in the parade. But mostly it was made up of weekend recreationists, families and sportsmen. There were flags, signs, provocative T-shirts and lots of anti-government sentiment to go around. Carbon County was well represented, thank you Joan Powell.
After the parade there was a big get-together on the capital steps. There were speeches, music, and lots of networking and socializing between like-minded people and organizations. In case you never noticed, there's a lot of anti-wilderness, anti-government and anti-SUWA sentiment in Utah.
So now that the big rally is over, what else can we do? We've got to turn our focus on Congress and change the culture in Washington. I learned a long time ago that you can't heal a disease by treating the symptoms. You've got to go to the source of the infection. Does multiple-use of public land even matter when our government is bankrupting the national treasury, ignoring the constitution, disregarding the will of the people, allowing chaos on our borders, shutting down whole industries (coal and oil) and sending millions of jobs overseas? Closed roads and too much wilderness are only symptoms of a bigger problem.
I've attended two of these rallies in the past few months and I can tell you that people are mad. There is a groundswell of anti-government opposition growing in this country like nothing I have ever seen before. You can see it at the town hall meetings on health care.
Look closely at the people who are speaking out. They are middle-class, middle-aged and ordinary folks. They are people who have given their lives working, serving, and building up this country. They are people who live by our laws and faithfully pay their taxes. They have served in the military and they go to church. They love this country. You can tell by the passion in their voices. They are not criminals, ruffians, or rent-a-mob protesters as some have suggested. They are your friends and neighbors.
And we are mad. Mad because we know we are being lied to. Mad that we must give up our Saturdays to attend rallies to try to get the attention of our elected officials. Mad that our voices are not being heard and our concerns are being dismissed as irrelevant or foolish. Mad that things we have always believed in and cherished are being taken away before our very eyes. Mad that our children's future is being mortgaged for today's empty promises and political debt paying. Mad about NAFTA, trillion dollar bailouts and politicians who should be in jail but get cleared by house and senate ethics committees time and again. Mad that our dollar is loosing value faster than we can earn it. Mad that we are being locked out of our public lands. Mad that we have lost much of our retirement savings through corruption and government meddling in the banking and home mortgage industries. Mad that social security and Medicare are going broke but still these idiots want to saddle us with another multi-trillion dollar health care plan instead of fixing the one we have. Mad that we are fearful about our future in this land of liberty and promise. Things shouldn't be this way.
And we are mad that we are being called Nazis, mobs, and anti-American by people like Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. How dare they point privileged fingers at us and call us those things? We are America. We are the people who make the country run and pay the taxes that support their lavish lifestyles and shameless political excesses. And I'm not bashing Democrats. In eight years of the Bush administration we got the same crap. It's time to get rid of all of them.
And so, give 'em hell at the town hall meetings if you can. I checked the Internet and I can't find a single upcoming town hall meeting scheduled by any public servant of Utah. I guess our politicians just want our votes, not our feedback.
How's that for change we can believe in?

Quitting Is The New Mission Statement
"Take this job and shove it" just doesn't cut it any more. At a time when jobs are scarce, it takes spectacular courage to quit one. Maybe that's why we've seen a recent trend of people leaving their jobs with a grand flourish. Today it was now-former Goldman Sachs exec Greg Smith, who scorched the firm on his way out the door with a New York Times op-ed titled, "Why I Am Leaving Goldman Sachs." Yes, the new, smart way to resign now involves grabbing some attention from would-be next employers or patrons to your new startup while making the ex-boss think hard about the culture or direction of his business. That's why quitting is the new mission statement.

ORLEANS–Coming off of a season where they reached the quarter-finals, the Lake Region softball team is looking to maintain that same level of play in 2012.
"We have set the bar pretty high over the last three years, and the group we have coming back this year is a veteran group, so they know what is expected," said head coach Matt Tinker.
Depth has been an asset for the Rangers in recent seasons, and they will have to utilize that depth again this year to fill some holes in the line-up.
Lake Region lost four players to graduation last year, all four being major contributors to the team.
And to make matters worse, starting short-stop and clean-up hitter Emily Comins went down late in the basketball season with an ACL injury and is expected to miss the entire season.
The good news is that Tinker has the resources to overcome these obstacles and still put a very good product on the field.
"We have fifteen or sixteen girls that can play at the varsity level, which is good and it's bad," said Tinker. "There will be some tough decisions and some girls will be disappointed, but from our standpoint it is good that we have so many that can play varsity ball."
One of the top concerns for high school softball coaches is pitching, but for Tinker, that is not a problem.
Michelle Thibeault will be the primary hurler for the Lady Rangers this season. The sophomore has plenty of experience for someone her age, seeing a fair amount of action as a freshman, including pitching the Rangers to a first round play-off win.
Said Tinker, "We weren't counting on her much (last year), we figured she would get the innings at JV and be ready to come in this year, but she forced her way onto the team and won five games for us, so she will be our ace out there."
Hannah Leroux will pick up the innings when Thibeault needs a rest, and Sarah Burnham has the ability to step in if needed.
On defense Tinker says there are still two positions up for grabs, but the remaining spots are pretty locked down.
Around the infield Burnham will return to the hot corner, and Leroux, Chelsey Thibeault and Stephanie Merchant will share duties at first base.
Kayla Royer will be starting somewhere, likely at short-stop for the injured Comins.
Corrina Cota will get the bulk of the time behind the plate, but Chelsey Thibeault will also be called upon to strap on the pads.
In the outfield Whitney Poginy, with her Gold Glove caliber defense, will be in center with Callie Cashin in left.
That leaves second and right as the two undetermined spots to filled, and likely it will be a three way battle between, Sabrina Roberge, Alyssa Royer and Vickie Arnold for playing time at these positions.
Tinker said that last season's Lady Rangers had the best offense in the Mountain Division, and he believes that this year's group has the chance to be one of the best in the league again.
"Everybody realizes that you still have to go out there and work on it. There is room to grow every year, and I don't want our girls to get complacent, but if they work as hard this year as they did last year, I think we should be able to hit anybody we see."
As far as the order goes, Tinker was still undetermined, but did note that Corrina Cota and her .500 plus average will make the move from lead-off to clean-up.
Lake Region opens the season today as they hit the road to take on BFA Faifax.
Game time is

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) today notified Exelon Nuclear that it has approved Three Mile Island Unit 1's request for a 20-year extension to its original operating license.
Londonderry Twp., P.a. (Oct. 22, 2009) - The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) today notified Exelon Nuclear that it has approved Three Mile Island Unit 1's request for a 20-year extension to its original operating license.
"License renewal for Three Mile Island means that the plant will continue to provide safe, clean and reliable energy to south central Pennsylvania through 2034," said William Noll, TMI site vice president. "Three Mile Island employees are committed to continuing to operate the plant at world class levels of performance."
Exelon scientists and experts have worked for two years to demonstrate that Three Mile Island Unit 1 can continue to safely generate 852 megawatts of electricity each year - enough for 800,000 typical homes. Each hour that Three Mile Island operates, it avoids 271 metric tons of carbon dioxide that would be emitted by a replacement coal-fired plant similar in size to TMI Unit 1.
In the past five years, Exelon Nuclear has invested more than $500 million into plant equipment to ensure continued safe operations and to ensure essential electricity is supplied to the region. This year, TMI will complete its largest capital project to date, when new replacement steam generators are installed in the plant. The steam generators are an essential system to the future reliability of TMI.
According to economics consultant Bates White, LLC, in a report published in July 2008, on average, TMI lowers wholesale electricity prices in Pennsylvania by at least $288 million per year, thus reducing consumer's electricity bills. The same study found that TMI directly contributes $99 million annually to Pennsylvania's economy through the impact of employee compensation, in-state expenditures on goods and services needed to operate the plant, and local and state property tax.
"I am very happy with the NRC's decision to renew Three Mile Island's operating license," said Daryl Lehew, Chairman, Londonderry Twp. Board of Supervisors. "TMI is a good neighbor and I am very pleased for our community that the plant will be able to operate for another 24 years."
Exelon Nuclear personnel collectively spent 60,000 hours preparing the 2,550-page license renewal application that was submitted to the NRC on Jan. 8, 2008. This process involved review of thousands of documents, a detailed review of historical equipment and component performance, and a rigorous review of the existing maintenance and engineering programs to ensure that the station is capable of maintaining plant systems over the extended license period.
The plant's original 40-year operating license was set to expire in April 2014. The 40-year term for initial nuclear plant operating licenses was based on amortization schedules used by banks that financed large utility projects, not on safety, technical or environmental considerations. The Atomic Energy Act of 1954, the original legislation authorizing civilian use of nuclear energy, permits nuclear power plants to renew their operating licenses.
Three Mile Island will still follow the same rigorous program of oversight and inspection by the NRC during its extended period of operation, led by two full-time inspectors at the station, as well as supplemental inspectors from the NRC regional headquarters. The plant has its own extensive programs in preventive and corrective maintenance, equipment testing, monitoring and replacement, and environmental monitoring
Exelon Nuclear operates the largest fleet of commercial nuclear energy plants in the United States and third largest in the world.
Exelon Corporation is one of the nation's largest electric utilities with approximately $19 billion in annual revenues. The company has one of the industry's largest portfolios of electricity generation capacity, with a nationwide reach and strong positions in the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic. Exelon distributes electricity to approximately 5.4 million customers in northern Illinois and southeastern Pennsylvania and natural gas to approximately 485,000 customers in the Philadelphia area. Exelon is headquartered in Chicago and trades on the NYSE under the ticker EXC.

Almost every week we receive newspaper clippings of evolution-related stories from some of our faithful supporters. Frequently, these clippings are articles that appear in local newspapers, and that are authored by evolutionists. While we cannot always review and rebut every one we receive, we feel that some deserve a response. One example is an article written by Scott Hatfield, a biology teacher at Bullard High School in Fresno, California. The title of his article was "Don't Learn Your Science from the Comic Pages." The comic strip in question was "B.C.," by famed cartoonist Johnny Hart. Mr. Hatfield did not appreciate the strip that appeared in the March 14 issue of the Fresno Bee, which featured a dialogue between a father and son clam (a strip that I have attached to a small bulletin board in my office, by the way).
Hatfield described himself as one who "enjoys" teaching evolution, even though he noted that many of his colleagues do not share his enthusiasm because they are "afraid of being hassled by students or parents with different views." He states that he "respects the diversity of beliefs" expressed in his classroom, but firmly corrects "misconceptions on the basis of scientific evidence rather than personal conviction." I would be interested to know whether or not Mr. Hatfield has, in fact, been completely forthcoming with his students regarding all the scientific evidence. Has he mentioned to them that evolutionary theory depends on spontaneous generation—life coming from nonlife—and yet for the last four centuries, scientists have been unable to demonstrate this. In fact, all scientists acknowledge a principle known as the law of biogenesis, which states that "life comes only from other life of its kind." Has Mr. Hatfield explained to his impressionable biology students that evolution cannot explain the Cambrian explosion—complex life forms appearing suddenly in the fossil record? Has Mr. Hatfield "firmly corrected the misconceptions" in the students' biology textbook regarding Ernst Haeckel's forged embryos, English peppered moths that were artificially glued on trees to enhance the idea of natural selection, the fallacy of the "vestigial organs" concept, the erroneous stories (and lack of scientific evidence) regarding horse and whale evolution, or the perpetuated myth regarding Archaeopteryx being anything more than a bird? Surely, if his teaching is based on scientific evidence and not "personal conviction," then he has been forthright and honest regarding these widely known evolutionary hoaxes.
I am sure that Mr. Hatfield has also been honest with students regarding some of the other scientific problems with evolutionary theory. For instance, the theory cannot explain why many animals reproduce sexually, when, from a purely evolutionary viewpoint, asexual reproduction would be preferred. In fact, does Mr. Hatfield discuss the problem that sex and gender pose to the evolutionary theory? How do animals "evolve" with different sexual organs, all the while requiring them to be able to reproduce? I'm also sure Mr. Hatfield spent several weeks discussing the problem that language and communication present for the evolutionary theory. I also hope he took time to remind his students that, scientifically speaking, humans are the only creatures on the planet that have both the neurological connections and anatomical components necessary to make speech possible. And surely in this modern day and age when information is so readily accessible, this biology teacher spent some time discussing the problem that irreducible complexity poses for evolutionary theory. And I personally would be interested to know how Mr. Hatfield firmly corrects questions on the origin of the brain, mind, and consciousness.
Additionally, I am sure Mr. Hatfield has fully informed his class of the problems of the Big Bang theory. First, how do we explain the initial matter that exploded out of that Big Bang, and whence did it originate? Has he mentioned that the most distant galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field show insufficient evidence of evolution, with some of them apparently having higher redshifts than the faintest quasars? Did he mention that the ages of globular clusters appear older than the Universe—a major problem for the evolutionary timeline? Has he shared with his biology class that element-abundance predictions using the Big Bang require too many adjustable parameters to make them work?
Ah, but I digress. Mr. Hatfield's complaints with the comic strip begin with what he views as a misleading statement regarding common descent. He noted: "Like many people, Hart seems to be under the impression that evolution is progressive, moving from 'lower' forms of life (like Papa Clam) to 'higher' forms, with man ultimately at the top…. Evolutionary biologists do not see life as a ladder with man at the top rung; the preferred metaphor is that of a tree, with our species occupying but one of the more recently formed branches." That being the case, could Mr. Hatfield provide scientific evidence for his beloved evolutionary tree? Since he corrects misconceptions with scientific evidence, then maybe he could share with everyone exactly what is at the bottom of the tree, and how the tree initially got started. He also should give the locations and specimens for each of the transitional fossils that provide various branching points on his tree—if we are going to keep this strictly scientific. Otherwise, one might be led to believe this was simply a poorly supported theory upheld by individuals who "have a personal conviction."
Mr. Hatfield went on to state: "After all, scientists can measure the DNA of clams and other mollusks, and they can tell you that, for example, the lineage that led to mollusks is different from the one that led to starfish." Obviously, it would have been nice if Mr. Hatfield provided a reference for that particular information, but other simpler, more relevant questions come to mind. For example, how does evolution explain a creature that builds a hard shell, but then links it through this "tree of life" to creatures covered in fur, skin, scales, or feathers? It's one thing simply to say "this evolved from that," and then draw pretty little lines in a textbook; it is entirely another to actually give scientific evidence for such a transition. Furthermore, has Mr. Hatfield honestly shown the students in his class how many times this alleged evolutionary "tree of life" has been pruned, rearranged, and/or spliced? That is a scientific fact that can be documented by history, not personal conviction.
Hatfield then moved on to what he called the "true agenda." He berated Hart because "his real aim is to debunk the idea [of evolution] in general." After chastising Hart for ending his comic strip with the son clam asking: "What are we doing on Mount Everest?," Hatfield noted: "Clams are found on Himalayan peaks not because a flood put them there, but because the lineage of claims is much older than the mountains themselves!" What was that he said earlier about scientific evidence and personal convictions? How do you know Mr. Hatfield? Were you there? What scientific evidence do you possess that allows you to make such a bold claim? Could it be that you have a "true agenda" Mr. Hatfield?
In his closing statements, Mr. Hatfield tried to land one last blow by observing: "However, it's worth posing the question: Doesn't it seem strange that a comic strip populated by cavemen and dinosaurs seems intent on debunking evolution?" And yet the sad part is Hatfield "doesn't get it." Hart purposefully puts men and dinosaurs together because he believes—as do I—that God created both men and dinosaurs during the same creative week, and thus they coexisted. (And believe it or not, we have scientific evidence that supports such a concept!)
I can accept biology teachers explaining evolutionary theory in their classrooms—as long as they remember that it has not been proven, and that it is still a theory. I even acknowledge that microevolution (changes within limited parameters) occurs in nature. But I have a problem with a biology teacher who advocates evolution as a "fact of science," and who then refuses to share with them some of the problems of the theory. Mr. Hatfield is doing exactly what he accused Johnny Hart of doing—i.e., bringing his personal convictions into his workplace. For a cartoon writer, that is acceptable. For a biology teacher, it is not. For all you students out there who may run into Mr. Hatfield, or other teachers like him, let me warn you: Do not learn your science from a biased teacher!
Hatfield, Scott, (2004), "Don't Learn your Science from the Comics Pages," Fresno Bee, March 14.

Rated 4.3 out of 5 by 31 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lady J Model It's an excellent phone. The model is old, but I like it. October 10, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 Works well but disappointed that there is no ability to plug in a headset. October 5, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Mick Racer multi-level house, need multiple extensions We are replacing our old (6 years) set of Panasonic land line phone sets. We had already replaced the re-chargeable batteries on most of those phones, but didn't want to invest any more $ in the old set of phones. We added another bedroom in the basement, so it was time for an upgrade up to 5 phones. Had considered scrapping our land line entirely, but it still made sense for us to continue on for now; it still has value for us & so we re-invested in the new set of phones (KX-TGD225N). September 15, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 Updated Phone I think these phones are sleek, white, easy to read and I really am glad we purchased this model. Husband is hard of hearing..... no problem with these phones. September 6, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 Good phone system but, not as good as the old one I had a Panasonic cordless phone system for about four years. When it died I got this new system the differences are not major but I still like the old one better. 1. Sound quality on the old one was better. 2. I could plug in a headset into the old system. 3. I can "label" the hand sets on the new system more easily. 4. Every handset flashed on the old system when there was a message. 5. I can block twice as many "bad" numbers on the new system. By the way your staff was very helpful in dealing with the old system. August 17, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Butterfly 9 Great Phones I purchased this phone a few weeks ago and so far so good!! I like all the features the phone has. It announces incoming calls and the call block feature helps with unwanted calls. Easy to read display screen, caller ID, and date and time lit in orange. How did I live without this phone? :) August 10, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by Alex Saved by these cordless phones Now that I have to use these phones because my phone lines were damaged and I am only on cable, these are okay. Nothing like when phones lasted twenty years! They are not easy to use for the stored numbers but not bad. They are cheaply made with light weight plastic but thats all there is. I researched it and we are stuck with this system until cell phones are our only source. I Love my iphone but need landphones for the house. August 9, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Bill K. II Excellent cordless phone set! Excellent phone, value and price! Most importantly, great customer service when ordering on line! Good job folks! August 7, 2015
