How to Choose the Best Bed For Your Dog?
Believe it or not, dogs, much like their human counterparts, are more comfortable in certain dog beds than others. There are so many varieties available now that choosing the perfect bed for your canine can be a bit overwhelming. And believe me when I tell you, they come in every price range, shape, size, color, fabric and texture you can think of. I am sure once you read this article, it will help you to make decision that will please both you and your dog.
- Some dogs prefer to be completely covered when they sleep. For this type of pet the pita bed, which is essentially a doggie sleeping bag, would be the best choice. It completely encases the dog, leaving an opening for them to easily access to get in or out. No worries of them getting caught up in a throw blanket with this awesome bed
- Another type of bed for the cuddling types are bolster beds. Bolster beds have a thick cushion of foam surrounding the bed, almost resembling a small sofa or loveseat. If your dog tends to always lean up against something (or someone) when they sleep, this may be the bed for them. Cozy comfort will surrounds them while they slumber
- Similar to the bolster bed, it encases your pet when they lie on the big, lofty pillow. These beds come with or without walls surrounding them. Total comfort
- These beds support aching joints, alleviating pain while they rest. They come in many varieties including memory foam and box spring styles
- You can even get travel beds or mats for the pet that's always on the go. They are perfect for sleepovers, camping, even a day at the park. They are compact and portable and will give your pet something familiar in an unfamiliar place which will often ease anxiety when away from home
Tips & Warnings:
Ensuring the comfort of your dog while they sleep is another way of being a responsible dog owner and providing care for them. Would you like to sleep on the floor all the time? Of course not, so treat your dog to a new world of comfort, you might just get your own bed back
How to Waterproof a Dog Bed?
Dogs need clean dry beds for their health. Most dog beds are made with an outside cover and inside padding. The outside cover should be removable and washable. To help keep the inner padding dry, you can add a waterproof liner between the pad and the cover. If a dog throws up or piddles on the bed, just wash the cover, clean or replace the waterproof liner, and the dog can go back to a dry bed. A dog bed can made waterproof in these easy ways
Temporary Solutions
- Emergency. For an emergency waterproof liner, get a sturdy garbage bag. A heavy-duty tear-resistant 90-gallon bag may be needed for a large dog. Remove the dog bed cover. Put the bed padding loosely inside the garbage bag. Fluff or smooth the padding, tie the garbage bag shut and put the bed back in the cover. Be sure the knotted end of the garbage bag is at the side of the pad so the dog is not sleeping on the knot. Replace this with a more durable liner for long-term use
- A space blanket. A space blanket or survival blanket is a quick and inexpensive waterproof liner. These thin foil-type blankets are available in outdoor, hardware and discount stores. Remove the bed cover and wrap the space blanket all around the padding. The blanket is usually about 50 inches by 80 inches so it will overlap. Use duct tape or packaging tape if desired to seal the blanket around the pad. Re-cover the bed. Some dogs will not sleep on the bed because of the crinkly foil sound and you may need to use another type of liner
- Bubble wrap. If your dog needs a liner only on top of the bed, bubble wrap is quick and easy to use. Lay a strip of bubble wrap over the bed with extra overlap. Use scissors to cut the bubble wrap to size. You may need to cut two or more strips to fit the bed. Tape them side-by-side for a smooth wide pad. Use duct tape or sturdy packaging tape. Put the bubble wrap liner between the dog cover and the bed padding. This protects the pad but does not absorb liquid. Wipe it off as soon as it gets wet. Bubble wrap may make your dog too warm so use it only as a temporary solution
Permanent Solutions
- People pads. Drug stores, medical supply shops and Internet stores carry incontinence pads. These pads come in many sizes and styles. They are waterproof and have quilted, smooth or padded surfaces. Incontinence pads come in disposable and in washable styles. Choose an absorbent pad that wicks liquid away from your pet's body. If you choose a large quilted or well-cushioned pad, it may be comfortable enough to be used on top of the cover
- Baby bedding. Check baby departments for waterproof baby bedding. Look for a waterproof baby blanket or mattress pad. These covers do not feel like plastic. Choose one that is washable, hypoallergenic, and breathable. You do not want it to trap body heat that may cause skin infections
- Piddle pads. Pet stores and kiddie stores carry piddle pads. These disposable pads are waterproof on one side and padded on the other. The pads come in different sizes and are excellent when you only need to cover the top sleeping area of the bed. They absorb liquid on the padded side, making clean-up easier. Just replace with a new pad
- Crate pads. Many pet stores carry waterproof liners for crate or kennel pads. These pads are washable and come either as flat pads or full covers with zippers. Some are highly absorbent and soak up the fluid. They can be machine washed and dried for re-use
Tips & Warnings
- Puppies, older dogs and sick dogs are especially likely to need a waterproof bed
- For a sick or incontinent dog, keep extra disposable and washable pads. Use them wherever the dog likes to sleep during the day
- A wet liner should be removed so the dog does not get soaked in urine and become infected
- If your dog is a bed-chewer, do not use plastic or bubble wrap that can be ripped in small pieces and swallowed
- Whenever a dog destroys its bed, take away the chewed parts immediately to prevent choking

- 1 x Large Size Floral Print Round Edge Pet Bed

XU Student Occupational Therapy Association (XUSOTA)
This group is formed on the Xavier University campus by the current students enrolled in the occupational therapy program to provide networking opportunities among classmates, a forum for student focus on professional activities, sharing of professional information, and the opportunity to become involved in the American Occupational Therapy Association from a student level. Activities include fund-raising projects to support attendance at national and state conferences. Another function of the XUSOTA is to select student representatives to the national organization's student committee and other department committees for which student representation is requested. In 1997 and 1999, XUSOTA was awarded "Organization of the Year Award" by the student government association in recognition of their creativity, initiative and commitment to the Xavier University Community.
Working Cintas Concessions is one of the major fundraising activities for "XUSOTA" and the X.U.O.T. Alumni Association. The money earned by working a concession stand during the men's basketball games is used to finance many of the service projects XUSOTA is involved in, such as charity walk-a-thons, purchasing Christmas gifts for the homeless and buying refreshments to serve at the Drop In Center, as well as assisting current students with costs involved in attending state and national O.T. conferences. Here is a picture of the "crew" who worked the game on January 22, 2006.

By C.J. MCMANUSSun Advocate community editor
With the rising cost of gas hitting Carbon County consumers' pocketbooks, improving home insulation is an effective way to insure that the financial drain doesn't impact residents as hard.
Even though the warm fall weather seems to be holding its ground in the Castle Valley region, many tasks required to properly winterize a home are best done before the cold temperatures arrive.
One of the first things listed at many online sources is the furnace.
Most experts advise local residents who rely on natural gas to heat homes to call in a professional to clean the ducts and go over the furnace.
Consumers should then insure that the furnace filters are changed on a monthly basis.
In order to save more money, many experts recommend changing older furnace thermostats to newer more efficient programmable models.
If a fireplace is used as a heating source in the home, it must also be checked on an annual basis, according to Elizabeth Weintraub in the winter preparation article at www.about.com.
Weintraub outlined several tips for getting the fireplace ready for Jack Frost. The recommendations include:
â¢Capping or screening the top of the chimney to keep out rodents, birds and potential debris.
â¢Calling a chimney sweep to remove soot and creosote.
Many local agencies and emergency response personnel, including Price Chief Paul Bedont, attribute the buildup of the substances in the chimney as the number one causes of home fires during the winter months.
â¢Buying firewood or chopping wood.
The fuel should be stored in a dry place away from the exterior of the home.
â¢Inspecting the fireplace damper for proper opening and closing.
â¢Checking the mortar between bricks and the tuckpoint, if necessary.
One energy saving tip most people don't follow is reversing the switch on ceiling fans.
Almost all models have the feature and, when reversed from then summer position, the ceiling fans will push warm air down into the home, cutting down on heating costs.
Cleaning the gutters is frequently the last on any homeowner's winterization list. But according to the real estate section at msn.com, completing the task can be paramount to a home's proper winter readiness.
Clogged drains can cause melted snow and ice to build up, then seep into the home. Therefore, it is also important for local residents to check for any leaks or malfunctions in a home's gutter system before the first snow falls.
One of most obvious ways to cut down on heating costs is to make sure that a home is properly insulated and sealed from the frigid outside temperatures.
Finding smaller leaks can be a major task and different sources recommended trying everything from lighting an incense stick and carrying it around the house to doing the same thing with a lit candle.
Some common leaky areas include, a doggy door, door and window frames, some types of lighting fixtures and electrical outlets.
Once located, there are any number of products available to make certain that everything is the home is adequately sealed.
While the products are available at almost all hardware stores, local residents on extra tight budgets might try using household items to fix the problem.
Examples include using a towel rather than a custom door sweep to keep the cold out.
To prevent plumbing freeze incidents, Weintraub recommends locating the water main within the home so that it can be shut off in case of an emergency.
The weatherization expert also advises homeowners in the Castle Valley region to:
â¢Drain all garden hoses.
â¢Insulate exposed plumbing pipes.
â¢Drain the air conditioner and pipes. People should also shut off the air conditioning valve.
â¢If vacation is part of any resident's winter plan, people should make sure to leave the furnace on to at least 55 degree Fahrenheit so the pipes don't get too frigid.
Most online preparedness sources also agreed that it is of paramount importance that every family have an emergency kit and plans.
Recommendations include:
Having indoor candles, matches and a lighter readily available.
Placing important telephone numbers on the fridge or at a central location within the home.
Securing a battery pack for sensitive electronic equipment like home computers.
Building an adquate storage of bottled water and non-perishable food items.
Developing and practicing an evacuation plan for all areas of the house.
Lastly, Carbon County residents should make sure all alarms within the home have been checked as they can save the whole family from fire and carbon-monoxide poisoning. .

Read: Could The Make Whole Disappear?
In the Ottawa Sun, Bruce Garrioch writes that the NHL may soon drop the Make Whole part of it's proposal since they viewed it as a "gift" to the players and as Garrioch notes, the NHL doesn't seem to be in the mood for giving.
Larry Brooks writes in the NY Post that the difference between the two make whole proposals, $182 million, breaks down to about $1.2 million or so per team over the course of the deal.
Brooks writes, "A million a team and it's non-negotiable on the league side, yet the Canceler-in-Chief's message is that it's the union that is unwilling to negotiate."
James Mirtle says that the idea of the league dropping the make whole "is counterproductive and the opposite of negotiating. It's already on the table."
Bob McKenzie writes at TSN that the make whole was introduced as a way to soften the blow for the players in going from 57% to 50% but that it was proposed for an 82 game season. He says, "Make Whole has an expiry date. We're not sure exactly when that is, but it's coming."

A Clayton woman faces up to four years in state prison after admitting Wednesday in Jefferson County Court that she stole more than $6,000 from her employer.
Andrea L. Lynch, 31, of 37820 Deferno Road, pleaded guilty to third-degree grand larceny, admitting that during June and July she stole $6,334 from Jreck Subs in Clayton. She also admitted violating probation, to which she had been sentenced in November for manufacturing methamphetamine at her home and stealing money from another employer.
She was serving five years probation imposed for guilty pleas in September 2012 to fourth-degree grand larceny and third-degree unlawfully manufacturing methamphetamine.
In that case, she admitted that between Sept. 1 and 11, 2011, she stole more than $1,000 from her employer, Sunnybank Restaurant, Cape Vincent. She also admitted that on Jan. 23 or 24, 2011, she possessed pseudoephedrine, lithium, ammonium nitrate and other items used in the manufacture of methamphetamine at her residence. She admitted violating probation by being convicted of the new crime.
She is expected to be sentenced on the newest grand larceny charge to two to four years in prison and be ordered to pay full restitution. Judge Kim H. Martusewicz will mandate that she serve her sentence in the prison systems Willard Drug Treatment Program. Inmates who complete the 90-day program serve the remainder of their sentence under parole supervision.
Judge Martusewicz said Mrs. Lynch may still face additional prison time for violating federal parole. She was sentenced in November in U.S. District Court, Syracuse, to nine months time served for a June 25, 2012, guilty plea to misappropriation of postal funds. She admitted that while working at post offices in Theresa, Fishers Landing and LaFargeville, she embezzled 213 money orders totaling $51,162 without purchasing or processing any of the money orders through the St. Louis Federal Reserve, in violation of federal law.
The U.S. attorneys office said the investigation of Ms. Lynchs activities began in August 2010 when special agents with the U.S. Postal Services Office of Inspector General reviewed records from the Theresa post office as a result of numerous money orders being processed after the date they were cashed. The U.S. attorneys office said Ms. Lynch admitted using the money orders to support a heroin addiction.
In other court activity:
Travis L. Worrell, 24, Watertown, pleaded guilty to third-degree attempted criminal sale of a controlled substance, admitting that he tried to sell cocaine within the county July 10. He is expected to be sentenced Oct. 21 to three years in prison, followed by an additional three years of supervision upon his release.
Mr. Worrell is an ex-convict, having been sentenced in County Court in September 2012 to two years in prison on a conviction of third-degree attempted criminal sale of a controlled substance, for having tried to sell cocaine in Watertown in April 2012. According to the state Department of Corrections and Community Supervisions website, he was released from prison under parole supervision in May.
Matthew V. Belcher, 25, Watertown, was arraigned on two counts each of third-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance and third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance. The charges were contained in a grand jury indictment unsealed in court.
It is alleged that he had and sold cocaine within the county in early June and again a week later. He pleaded not guilty to the charges and was sent to the Metro-Jefferson Public Safety Building on $20,000 bail. Mr. Belcher is an ex-convict, having been sentenced in county court in 2009 to two years in prison for a third-degree attempted criminal possession of a controlled substance. He had been accused by the Metro-Jeff Drug Task Force in July 2009 of possessing 122 packages of crack as he got off a bus at a State Street terminal. He was released to parole supervision in June 2010, according to the prison systems website.

The Automated System Recovery (ASR) feature enables users to create a set of floppy disks that can be used to automate the process of recovering a failed system.
When you attempt to use the ASR Wizard on Windows XP Home Edition, you may receive the following error message:
If you receive this message, you may be unable to create a backup set with ASR.
Backup Utility
The files for recovery diskette could not be created. The operation was cancelled.
This behavior can occur because ASR is not supported in Windows XP Home Edition. However, Windows XP Home Edition users can access the ASR Wizard if they install the Ntbackup program from the Valueadd folder on the Windows XP Home Edition CD-ROM.
To work around this behavior, access the Automated System Restore Wizard:
The ASR Wizard may create the floppy disks and a backup file (Backup.bkf). The floppy disks, however, cannot start the ASR process in Windows XP Home Edition if they are used after a catastrophic system failure.
For catastrophic malfunctions that result in the need for total data recovery, you must use the following steps for the recovery process (which assumes that a full backup had been performed a short period of time prior to the equipment failure and subsequent data loss):
The error message in the Symptoms section of this article is not always displayed. When the error message is not displayed, you can create a backup set with ASR. In the situation where a backup set is created with ASR, the startup floppy disks that are created to use with ASR do not work with Windows XP Home Edition.
The backup set is still valid. You can recover the data set that had been created with the ASR Wizard by proceeding as if the data set had been created with Ntbackup.

MASSENA Anyone who has a formal affiliation with Massena Memorial Hospital and does not get a flu shot this year will be required to wear a mask when at the facility.
If they refuse for some health reason and cannot take the vaccine, any employee, board member, auxilian or anybody who has a formal affiliation with the hospital must wear a mask, CEO Charles F. Fahd II told members of the hospitals board of managers this week.
The move was mandated by new rules adopted by the state Department of Health this year that require all health care workers volunteers included at hospitals, nursing homes and other health care agencies to either get a flu shot or wear a mask when working with patients.
State Health Commissioner Nirav R. Shah said, This regulation will enable health care workers to meet their obligation to do no harm to patients and will protect workers, as well.
Mr. Fahd invited board members to take advantage of the flu clinics being offered at the hospital. One clinic was held this week, and others will be held Oct. 3, 15 and 16.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says that, although the timing of flu can vary from season to season, it can begin in early October and commonly peaks in January or February. The agency recommends an annual flu vaccine for everyone 6 months and older.
Employees who receive the flu vaccine will have a dot placed on their name badge, according to the hospital CEO.
While the hospital is taking precautions with those affiliated with the facility, Mr. Fahd said, visitors will not be affected. He said the state health commissioner advised against going so far as to require vaccination of the visiting public.
Rebecca J. Faber, spokeswoman for Canton-Potsdam Hospital, Potsdam, said her hospital also is abiding by the regulation, but its nothing new for the facility.
We have seasonal flu vaccine clinics every season. We offer the vaccine to all employees and volunteers. This year its mandated, she said. The vaccine changes to account for the different strains of the flu every year, she said.
Those who are particularly vulnerable to the flu are children under 2 years of age, although the elderly also are susceptible. The best way to protect themselves and others from the flu is to receive the flu shot and practice good hand hygiene.
Besides the flu clinics at Massena Memorial and Canton-Potsdam hospitals, the St. Lawrence County Health Department also has scheduled clinics during October. Appointments are appreciated, but not required by calling 386-2325.
The clinics will be held from 1 to 3 p.m. Tuesday at the Canton Human Services Center; 1 to 3 p.m. Oct. 7 at Cambray Courts, Gouverneur; 1 to 3 p.m. Oct. 9 at the Massena Community Center; 9 a.m. to noon Oct. 8 at Riverview Towers in Ogdensburg; 1 to 3 p.m. Oct. 21 at New Home Community Church, Potsdam; and 1 to 3 p.m. Oct. 29 at the Canton Human Services Center. Pneumonia shots also will be available.
The cost is $30 for flu shots and $75 for pneumonia shots, and the department will bill Medicare for flu and pneumonia vaccinations. Medicare recipients must bring their Medicare card with them to the clinics.

IL-2 is produced naturally in the body and helps CD4 cells multiply. In earlier studies in HIV-infection, most of the patients with a controlled viral load under antiretroviral therapy and a high level of CD4 cell count (over 200/mm3) who received IL-2, experienced an increase of their CD4 cell count superior to what is observed with antiretroviral therapy alone. The efficacy of IL-2 when the viral load is high and the patient is not receiving antiretroviral therapy is not known. The purpose of this multicentric national study is to compare the effects of IL-2 versus no treatment in HIV naïve patients. One hundred thirty HIV-1-infected patients, with a CD4 count between 300 and 500/mm3, will be randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups : IL-2 or no treatment. The group with IL-2 will receive a dose of 4.5 million international units by subcutaneous injection twice a day for 5 days (up to a total of 5 cycles, ending at Week 96), the first three cycles 8 weeks apart. Evaluation will be done at week 96. The primary endpoint is the proportion of patients reaching an absolute CD4 count below 300/mm3 at Week 96. Secondary endpoints include the occurrence of HIV-related events, drug safety and the evolution of CD4 cells and of HIV RNA and HIV DNA loads over time.

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation is aiming its sights at big city gangs that have infiltrated the states small towns.
What weve seen are a lot of urban gangs migrating to smaller communities and towns in rural West Tennessee, TBI Director Mark Gwyn said after a budget hearing with Gov. Bill Haslam. Sometimes on the weekends, thousands going into those towns, partying, violence, drugs, the things that follow that type of clientele.
At the hearing, Gwyn requested a $70.9 million budget for 2013-14, representing about a $1.5 million reduction from last years budget at the governors request.
Such a reduction would likely lead to the loss of nine forensic scientists and nine criminal investigators, if implemented, though such budgets often change before they are finalized.
Gwyn said the states main priorities are drugs and gangs, two problems that are intertwined and growing in some areas.
A Tennessean analysis of state crime data in July revealed that gang crimes have tripled since 2005 in the states rural areas, far outpacing urban centers more commonly associated with gang problems. While larger cities such as Nashville have had some success tamping down on gang violence, residents in smaller cities suddenly find themselves facing gang murders, robberies and drug distribution.
To that end, Gwynn has partnered with law enforcement and District Attorney General James Woodall, who oversees prosecutions in Chester, Henderson and Madison counties, to create a gang task force and address the problem.
He said the growth in gang violence in the suburbs can be attributed to aggressive police tactics in larger cities, making it uncomfortable for gangs to exist, coupled with the fact that rural areas have fewer officers to target the gangs.
The reason they migrate to these small towns is because of the lack of resources, Gwyn said. You just keep the pressure on.

Federal systems of government such as Australia's are modern political devices for achieving unity between diverse political communities. Inevitably, intergovernmental relations between the tiers of government in federations are fraught with tensions over the ways in which power and responsibility are shared between them. Globalisation has added to such internal pressures on federations as complex, often entrenched 'trans-boundary' policy issues and the pressing needs of local and regional communities. This unit explores the case for reform of the Australian federation in the light of the democratic values and purposes it was supposed to embody. In exploring this case, we also take note of the experiences of other countries.

Buffalo Girls
In rural Thailand, the buffalo is revered by farmers and symbolizes work, patience, strength, and loyalty. In the big cities of Thailand, the word "Buffalo" has taken on another meaning - a derogatory way of describing someone from the provinces; someone who works hard but doesn't think or talk much. This is the story of two young girls, Stam and Pet, to whom both definitions apply.

'We're not satisfied:' Investigation into Union Gap murder continues
UNION GAP, Wash. -- John Munzanreder was officially charged Thursday with the murder of his wife outside the Majestic theater. Prosecutors charged Munzanreder with first degree murder, domestic violence.
His alleged accomplice and co-worker Juan Ibanez Cortes was also charged with first degree murder and for having a gun as an illegal immigrant.
Police say John Munzanreder devised the plan.
Action News spoke to Union Gap's interim police chief who said the murder investigation won't be over for weeks.
"You have two arrests, two people you say were involved. Is that enough? Why is the case still ongoing?" KIMA asked.
"Because we're not satisfied that we have all the information that we need so we continue to investigate," said Greg Cobb, Union Gap interim police chief.
Both suspects will be back in court in two weeks.

BIDDEFORD, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- A judge has rejected a motion to stop the release of a list of names of alleged clients charged in the Kennebunk prostitution case, according to a clerk at Biddeford District Court.
It was not immediately known when the list would me made available.
On Thursday, an attorney for two alleged clients of a woman accused of running a prostitution business out of her Zumba dance studio in Kennebunkfiled a motion to block the release of names of the men suspected as her clients.
The judge denied the motion Friday morningand the attorney has since appealed. The judge is expected to rule on the appeal this afternoon.
Another attorney tells NEWS CENTER he will file for another injunction to block the list of alleged clients from being released. He did not say when that motion would be filed.
Alexis Wright, 29, pleaded not guilty Tuesday to 106 counts of prostitution, violation of privacy, tax evasion and other charges for allegedly providing sex for money at her fitness studio and a nearby office. The man police say was her business partner, 57-year-old Mark Strong Sr., pleaded not guilty to 59 counts of promotion of prostitution and violation of privacy.

Here's my new backpack (in real life it is more in focus). It was a gift from my mother-in-law and I got to pick it out myself. I absolutely needed a new backpack because I start school tomorrow (says the girl with more bags of all kinds than anyone could ever need, but whatevs).
One of the requirements I used to choose this pack was the availability of "open spaces" on which to sew the patches I've been collecting for years. I settled on the Quad Backpack from LL Bean. Only after I started sewing the patches did I realize this was a dorky sort of thing to do (says Gerald) but I am old enough now not to care about being dorky. Because I'm not that uncool, mostly.
The most necessary tools for this project were my thimble, which is silver and does not fit on my large man fingers, and those good sharp needles. It is hard to 1) sew through thick backpack material and 2) maneuver such a cumbersome object as a backpack while 3) blanket stitching patches with thick glue backing meant to be ironed. I sewed on one or two patches each day, only poked myself badly once, and now she is completely dorkified.
Confession. So, most of these patches I picked up at the places they depict. But, once I started sewing I realized I needed more patches to fill in more of the spaces and display things that are important to me (gosh that is SO dorky). So I went on ebay and cheated (says Gerald). The Buffalo patch was not purchased in Buffalo, even though I'm from there and take great pride in being a Buffalonian. It came from ebay. And the Bills and Giants patches? Also ebay.
My favorite patch is the Blue Ridge Parkway one because it is the prettiest. It was also the hardest to sew, based on its location and thickness. But I love it.
The Have a Nice Day patch is hidden under a flap, just in case I am not feeling friendly on a given day.
Tomorrow is my first day at school, almost a year after I decided that this was something I wanted to do. Yeah, I went in the Spring for some of my general ed requirements, but tomorrow is the first time I'm taking the photography classes. I feel ready but nervous, not really knowing what to expect. It's that freshman feeling all over again.
But at least in terms of carrying books and school supplies? I've got that covered.

We ran across a YouTube channel created by Fiori Restaurant in Great Barrington that made us thirsty. These short videos are a great way to engage customers — it certainly got our attention.
Now maybe someone can tell us if that Bloody Mary tastes as good as it looks?
Fiori more than fills the empty void at the end of Railroad Street.
GREAT BARRINGTON, Mass. — The haunting of Railroad Street has come to an end, hopefully. The dark shell of Pearl's, which has stood empty for nearly two years, is now bustling with a stylish crowd and an impressive menu of new Italian classics.
Enter Fiori, which opened recently at the "bottom" of Railroad Street. Of course, I wanted to go in on opening day and do my little write-up then, but reviewing a restaurant when its first opens is, I feel, in bad form. So, last week when a friend suggested that we meet at the bar for a drink, my curiosity got the better of me.
"Of course, sounds great," I said, thinking that I was being rather gallant by steeling myself against ordering any food, because then I'd absolutely have to write a review.
When I arrived there, I was relieved to discover that my usual attire of jeans and black T-shirt was actually fine. In fact, the place was crawling with jeans and T-shirt folks (one was even wearing a baggy sweat shirt) just looking to eat some good food. But, again, I was not there to eat, just to sip a cocktail and watch everyone's dishes go sailing by leaving the delicious fumes behind to torture me.
Needless to say, the torture didn't last long. I tried sipping my Old-Fashioned with indifference, until my friend piped up.
"You want to get some apps or something? I'm a little hungry."
And that was that. Before I knew it I was looking at a little bar menu (on very nice card stock, I might add) deciding on whether I wanted the cheese plate, the fries with garlic anchovy sauce or the duck liver pate over crispy bread. I finally settled on the pate and this curious little dish that sounded so intriguing I had to try it — anchovy-stuffed sage leaves fried with a panko breading. How could I not. My friend ordered the fries with the sauce and scallops from the dinner menu.
"I'm not trying to impress anyone tonight," she said.
We waited and chatted and enjoyed the general feeling of vibrancy around us. Once our pungent order came, it was all business. In fact, we didn't even try to carry on a conversation for the first 10 minutes. We just savored and sighed.
The pate, which is always an acquired taste, was the perfect mix of salt and the mild, irony tinge of all things liver-related. It was served on warm bread (spread for you) and that warmth seemed to allow the flavors of the pate to mix and soften. After taking a few bites of that farm-y deliciousness, it was time to move on to the anchovies. What struck me immediately was the breading. It was practically greaseless and when I bit into it, my mouth did not fill up with the oil that usually comes out of such a dish. In fact, the panko breading was just a formality compared to the explosion of sage on the palette. It seemed that the flavor would stop there, but the anchovy in the middle immediately dissolved the taste of the sage so that all that remained was a salty, herbal taste on the roof of the mouth.
"You've gotta try one of these," I said, pushing the basket of little fish to my friend. She dove in and had three while I took liberties with her saucy fries.
Don't be intimidated by Fiori's Manhattan, hipster-esque reputation (thanks to Pearl's). Although the high-end Italian cuisine gives pause, especially to local diners, it also encourages you to eat with your hands and savor every bite.
We are served at Petrino's Cafe on Main Street in North Adams on Friday while Mark Petrino takes an order. Everybody wears a shirt with the cafe's basil leaf logo.
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — Petrino's Cafe has been operating for a week now and owner Mark Petrino says things have been going well.
We finally got a chance to try it today and really liked the new decor and interior setup. Mark made good on his promise to move the deli case so that it's immediately visible when you walk in the door. It's also easier to get to the counter because the tables have been rearranged in a much better pattern.
The Cup & Saucer was like walking into a classroom — all the tables lined up like a regiment, making things a little too cozy if you wanted a private conversation. If you were waiting for takeout, you were always standing next to someone's table.
The new layout gets you out of people's way while you're waiting; plus, you can see the (cold) sandwiches right in the deli case. The interior's a lot brighter and the couch in the front has been moved to the back. Tables have replaced it in the window, which makes a lot more sense from a business standpoint. Why would you want potential customers to see people lounging with coffee when the money's in the food?
The tables and chairs are nicer, too. No more old schoolroom furniture.
We talked to couple regulars of the old cafe who were trying the new cafe for the first time. Their impressions were very positive, although Joe Manning says ditch the big TVs. Not good for conversation, he says, plus it feels like you're staring at the diners below — or being stared at if it's your table that's below.
We tried the Cousin Mary, a chicken breast with spinach, provolone and avocado in a whole-wheat wrap with a hint of chipotle sauce. Pretty good but for healthy eating, we'd like something other than chips on the side.
The cafe's offering a variety of wraps and sandwiches with fresh meats and vegetarian choices, burgers, steaks and salads. Breakfast is served until 11 a.m. with burritos, omelets and specials. On our list to try is the banana-stuffed ciabatta French toast with a meat side.
We've also been told the hours may change from 6 to 2 to 7 to 3 because more people are coming in later than earlier. The Web site's up, too, and actually posts soup and salad specials for the day. Yay for keeping the page current.
The new Petrino's Cafe on Main Street in North Adams opens Monday, the day after Easter.
In an earlier posting, iBerkshires incorrectly special invitation-only event. We apologize for any confusion. (If we're invited to an open house, we assume everybody else is, too. It actually was a preview. oops.)
But the cafe will open to the general public two days later.
Anyone walking by Main Street can see the work that's been going on inside. The floors have been refinished, the kitchen expanded and reconfigured and a the deli case is right up front when you walk in. We can't wait to see the menu.
Petrino's is opening the space occupied by the Cup & Saucer for several years.

This saddens me a bit to realize and put into words...
Let me start by saying that I supported 4E since the day it came out. I played the Hell out of it. I DMd several 4E groups at my FLGS. I took part in the GSL and released a lot of original material for 4E. I was one of the staunchest supporters of the new edition. I fought in the depths of the Edition Wars month after month. I brought dozens of new players to D&D via 4E. So, before I'm crucified as an average 4E-hater, take a minute and consider my position.
What I feared would happen finally did...it became boring. It became more about the maps and minis than the role-playing. I'd spend countless hours making maps and writing deep adventures just to have the players zip through with little regard for RP. Whenever a thought-provoking storyline would be introduced, the players grew bored. They were simply waiting for the next map to be put on the table and for initiative to be rolled. They hated Skill Challenges. When I would gently force RP on them, they'd lose interest. I don't know how many times I had to hear, "When do start fighting?", only to get into a fight and have to hear, "My God, will this fight ever end?". As a DM since the mid '80s, I didn't like what I was seeing. So, I did something drastic...I went back to 1E/2E.
I never liked 3E to begin with, so that was just out of the question. After playing 4E since it came out, I had been having this unexplicable urge to bring out some of the older material and play AD&D again, so I did. I've seen many who say that felt that pull of nostalgia while playing 4E, and I felt it right along with them. I finally just did something about it. I sold all of my 4E material (which was everything released to that point), stopped my FLGS games (much to the disdain of the players and the establishment owner), and dug up all of my AD&D stuff...536 books, to be exact, and started playing that again. I must admit, I'm not sure I had this much fun with AD&D when it was still the new thing. It honestly revitalized D&D for me, and for those I DM for.
I'm not going to say that 4E is bad. I spent too much time and money on it to make a silly claim like that. What I will say, though, is that...in the end...it just wasn't what I was looking for in D&D. It's a fantastic tactical minis game, that's for sure. It has a great backbone of rules in which to build from. It's a balanced, well thought-out game. But sometimes...just sometimes...I care more about fun than perfect balance. I missed the randomness of AD&D. I hate to say it, but I missed SoDs. I missed THAC0. I missed having huge battles without pulling out one mini or map. If I did have a map, it was a sheet of graph paper with a few doodles on it. I missed all of that, so I went back to it.
I do wish 4E and WotC the best...they have made a great product...but this old-timer is just too much of a grognard, I suppose.

This ECS Issue Site on assessment is designed to help state education leaders understand how assessment can improve education and make sound policy choices about related issues. Assessment involves many policy options, and the information on this site will help policymakers understand some of the technical issues and trade-offs of the different choices.
Assessments can take many forms, from norm-referenced tests that compare each student's performance to that of others to standards-based assessments that compare each student's performance to academic standards. Assessments can range from mostly multiple-choice items to short-answer questions or longer performance tasks engaging students in real-world problems. Sound assessments meet technical criteria of validity, the degree to which particular uses and interpretations of assessment results can be justified, and reliability, the degree to which scores are free of measurement error.
Policymakers try to maximize assessment quality and utility while creating an efficient and cost-effective assessment system. This site addresses many of these issues. Check this site and the related sites regularly to see updates on issues affecting policy choices on standards, assessment, and accountability.

Am I At Risk for Hodgkin Disease?
Scientists and medical professionals are working hard to better understand who will get Hodgkin disease, and why. For now, there is no way to tell if you will get Hodgkin disease before it happens. Many cancers have been linked to defective genes, chemical exposure, or dietary habits. Hodgkin disease has not.
The best way you can protect yourself from Hodgkin disease is to be aware of what makes you more likely to get it. These are called your risk factors. Knowing what puts you at risk for Hodgkin disease can help you make healthy choices that may help you avoid it.
However, just because you have one or more risk factors doesn't necessarily mean you will get Hodgkin disease. In fact, you can have many risk factors and still not get Hodgkin disease, or you can have few or no known risk factors and still get it.
These risk factors have been found to slightly raise your chances of getting the disease. Talk with your health care provider about any of the bolded statements below that apply to you so you can assess your risk.
I am between the ages of 15 and 40 or older than 55
Hodgkin disease occurs most often during the young adult years or after age 55.
I am male
More men than women get Hodgkin disease.
Other people in my family have had Hodgkin disease
If you have a brother or sister who has had Hodgkin disease, you are at higher risk yourself. Scientists think that in about 5% of cases Hodgkin disease runs in the family, but it is not known if this is due to shared genetic mutations or to some shared exposure.
I have Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)
EBV is a viral infection that causes mononucleosis or "mono." Studies show people who have been infected with this virus may have a slightly higher risk of getting Hodgkin disease. Scientists are still trying to understand the role EBV may play in Hodgkin disease.
I am HIV positive
People who are infected with HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, have an increased risk of developing Hodgkin disease.
If you believe you are at risk for Hodgkin disease, talk with your health care provider. Find out what symptoms to watch for, and ask how often you should schedule regular checkups for the disease.
What can I do if I'm at risk for Hodgkin disease?
If you have any of the factors that put you at risk for Hodgkin disease, what can you do? The best thing is to try to avoid the risks that you can.
Unfortunately, most of the known risk factors for Hodgkin disease, such as age, gender, and family history, can't be avoided. It's not possible to prevent infection with EBV at this time. Although there are steps you can take to lower your risk for HIV infection, it doesn't play a role in most cases of Hodgkin disease. Ask your health care provider if there are things you can do to lower your risk for Hodgkin disease.

for consideration by the Executive Secretary, Utah Air Quality Board.
Company Name: Whitmar Exploration Company
Location: Whitmar Exploration Company: Coal Creek
Compressor Station - SE/4 Section 34, T13S, R11E, Carbon County, UT
Project Description: Whitmar Exploration Corporation operates a
natural gas compressor station in Deadman Canyon near Coal Creek in

3.40, HAPs + 2.66, and CO2e + 4,406.00. The changes in emissions will
result in the following, in tons per year, potential to emit totals:
PM10 (including PM2.5) = 0.94, PM2.5 = 0.94, NOx = 27.80, CO = 25.77,
VOC = 10.50, HAPs = 3.46, and CO2e = 11,950.00.
The completed engineering evaluation and air quality impact analysis
showed that the proposed project meets the requirements of federal air
quality regulations and the State air quality rules. The Executive
Secretary intends to issue an Approval Order pending a 30-day public
comment period. The project proposal, estimate of the effect on local
air quality and draft Approval Order are available for public
inspection and comment at the Utah Division of Air Quality, 195 North
1950 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116. Written comments received by the
Division at this same address on or before November 17, 2011 will be
considered in making the final decision on the approval/disapproval of
the proposed project. Email comments will also be accepted at

HARRISVILLE Harrisville Central School Districts outgoing superintendent will receive nearly $61,000 as part of a contract buyout from the district.
Superintendent Rolf A. Waters is to receive a lump-sum payment of $60,765.50, will be paid for 25 unused vacation days and will continue to receive health insurance from the district by contributing 11 percent of the premium cost through the end of the year, according to a separation agreement signed Thursday by Mr. Waters and Board of Education President Jan T. Mosher.
Thereafter the Superintendent shall be eligible for such benefits, at his expense, as are available through COBRA, the agreement states.
The six-page agreement, obtained through a Freedom of Information Law request, also includes a clause stating that both parties agree they will not make disparaging comments about the other party or this agreement.
The superintendents current contract was slated to run through June 30, 2016.
The resignation of Mr. Waters, also the schools elementary principal, officially takes effect June 30, but he has worked his last day and is using vacation time until then. High School Principal Robert N. Finster will serve as acting superintendent through that date. No decision about who will run the district as of July 1 has been made.
During Mr. Waterss 10 years of service with the district, much progress has been made in a number of different areas, Mrs. Mosher said, reading from a prepared statement. However, the future direction of the district requires different leadership at this time.
The board president said the separation was deemed by both parties to be in their best interest. She declined to comment further, aside from noting that the past few months have been difficult.
The board has no immediate plans for securing a permanent replacement; that is expected to be discussed at coming meetings, Mrs. Mosher said.
Mr. Waters, Canton, who became superintendent here in July 2003 and whose contract was extended last summer, recently indicated that relations with the board had become strained and that some of his budgetary and tenure recommendations had been disregarded by board members. He could not be reached for further comment Friday.
Board members in fall 2009 decided to retain Mr. Waters when he was charged with, and ultimately convicted of, driving while intoxicated.
Community support along with Mr. Waterss honesty about the incident and prior performance were factors cited by the board in choosing to keep him employed.
However, over the past couple of years, some community members have complained to the board about other supposed off-duty conduct problems, although Mr. Waters has not faced any other charges.
Complaints also stemmed from the 2010 hiring of Mr. Waterss wife, Yvonne, as a reading teacher and Committee on Special Education chairwoman, even though Mrs. Waters was placed under the direct supervision of Mr. Finster.
More community members and parents apparently joined the ranks of the dissidents over the past year, and a photograph of Mr. Waters at a fraternity party reportedly was given to school board members recently.
Linda L. Hunter, a frequent speaker at board meetings and detractor of Mr. Waters, commended the board for buying out the superintendent.
It had to be a very hard decision, Mrs. Hunter said. I really congratulate them on that.
She also praised Mr. Finster, who is in his third year with the district, for taking an interest in the community.
The key word in community is unity, states a quotation posted on the Harrisville districts website.

BANGOR, Maine (NEWS CENTER)-- The Bangor Police Department is asking for help from local businesses, to get a legal drug off it's street that they compare to the product known as Bath Salts.
The synthetic marijuana, known as Spice, is perfectly legal to sell. However after events that have occurred in Bangor's Downtown over the last year, police want it to be removed from the shelves of all stores in Bangor.
"Even though this is legal, we understand what the side effects are," said Sgt. Paul Edwards with the Bangor PD. "We know this is killing and poisoning our citizens, our kids, our parents, our loved ones."
The drugs side effects include High Fever, Rapid Heart Rate, Vomiting, Hallucinations and even Seizures in some cases. It's those side effects that prompted the Bangor PD to take action. They've asked The Herbal Tea & Tobacco Shop, Cash X-Press, and Headies to all remove the product from their shelves. Owner of The Herbal Tea & Tobacco Shop, Chris Ruhlin has heard from both sides of the debate since he complied with the request.
"We've received an enormous support from the community, from the city and from our neighbors," said Ruhlin. "We even have customers who are grateful and then we have a lot of disappointed people too. That is the reality of that."
The store Cash X-Press has also stopped selling Spice to it's customers. Headies opened it's second store on Main Street in Bangor on Wednesday. They've agreed not to sell Spice at their new location but wouldn't comment as to whether they're currently selling it at their Broadway store.

Auxerrois is similar to pinot blanc, with round apple and pear notes and a low-acid, medium-bodied profile. It pairs well with mild pork dishes and with light fish dishes, such as trout or sole. High-quality auxerrois can offer more earthy mineral nuances and dried flower aromatics, but most is destined for quick consumption as a refreshing, unoaked white wine.

The Jefferson Leadership Institute's inaugural scholarship to three high school juniors is the beginning of the group's effort to combat "brain drain."
The annual leadership development program, run by the Greater Watertown-North Country Chamber of Commerce, recently began to focus on the north country's best and brightest students being lost to other areas after high school because of a perceived lack of opportunity in Jefferson County, according to Elizabeth C. Quencer, chairwoman of the group's 2012-13 service project.
The scholarship comes with $1,000 in financial assistance for postsecondary education and a full year of mentorship by alumni of the JLI program.
"I, and most of my JLI classmates, benefited from a mentorship relationship sometime during our lives, and we knew that it would be an invaluable experience for students with leadership potential that could open doors, strengthen resumes, allow students to discover or enhance their interests and change possible misperceptions about Jefferson County business and community life," Ms. Quencer said.
She said both the financial and mentorship components of the scholarship are essential, but the mentorship piece sets the JLI scholarship apart.
The following students were awarded the inaugural JLI scholarship, which came from a fund administered by the Northern New York Community Foundation:
n Jake Allen — The Belleville Henderson Central School District junior will receive $1,000 and be mentored by Christopher Lorence, JLI class of 1996, who owns Christopher A. Lorence Public Relations & Marketing, Carthage. Mr. Allen is the president of his junior class, an FFA sentinel and secretary of his school's foreign language club. He volunteers with the St. Cecilia's Church youth group in Adams.
n Casey Porter — The South Jefferson Central School District junior will receive $1,000 and be mentored by Amanda R. Root, JLI class of 2011 and team coordinator of community nutrition, environment and health at Cornell Cooperative Extension of Jefferson County. Miss Porter is president of the Jefferson County 4-H dairy and junior Holstein clubs and captain of the Honeyville Baptist Church puppet ministry. She also founded the "Kickin' It for a Cure" soccer fundraiser, benefiting the Susan G. Komen Cancer Research Center.
n Alexis Stewart — The Sackets Harbor Central School District junior will receive a $1,000 scholarship and be mentored by Cheryl Howard, JLI class of 2012 and owner and chief executive officer of Innovative Physical Therapy Solutions, Watertown. Miss Stewart plays soccer and softball and has participated in her school's Patriot Pals mentor program.
Ms. Quencer said the time-consuming service project of pulling the scholarship components together required hard work, careful planning and generosity of many community members. She said JLI's partnership with the Northern New York Community Foundation has been wonderful. Also, within six months, the JLI group established the fund, orchestrated a corporate and alumni donation solicitation campaign, promoted the scholarship to service clubs, found JLI alumni to serve as mentors, developed a rubric for scoring applications, held a spaghetti dinner and silent auction and selected three recipients.
According to a news release from the Community Foundation, the JLI class has raised enough money to date to sustain the scholarship at the same level for several years, but the group will continue to raise funds toward the effort. People who would like to donate can make checks payable to the Northern New York Community Foundation, with "JLI scholarship" in the memo line, and send them to the foundation at 120 Washington St., Suite 400, Watertown, N.Y. 13601.
