Institutional Policy on Discrimination and Harassment
2.1.2 Institutional Policy on Discrimination and Harassment
126.96.36.199 Notice of Non-Discrimination
Fontbonne University does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, age, sex, gender orientation, national or ethnic origin, or disability in employment or in the administration of its educational policies, admission policies, scholarship and loan programs, or athletic and other programs and activities. Furthermore, Fontbonne University prohibits retaliation against anyone who either opposes unlawful discrimination, assists or participates in an investigation of a complaint of discrimination, or exercises that person's rights under any law that forbids discrimination.
The Fontbonne University coordinators for Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Age Discrimination Act of 1975, Titles VI and VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and other laws and regulations prohibiting discrimination are:
Vice President for Finance and Administration Fontbonne University
6800 Wydown Boulevard
St. Louis, MO 63105
Phone: (314) 719-8017
Fax: (314) 719-8023
Director of Academic Services
Fontbonne University
6800 Wydown Blvd.
St. Louis, MO 63105
Phone: (314) 719-3627
Fax: (314) 719-3614
Questions about this non-discrimination policy and any complaints of discrimination shall be directed to either of these coordinators.
Fontbonne University complies with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, Public Law 93-380, as amended.
188.8.131.52 Policy Prohibiting Harassment
Harassment based on an individual's race, color, religion, age, gender, gender orientation, national or ethnic origin, disability or other status protected by law is not tolerated at Fontbonne University. Harassment consists of unwelcome conduct, whether verbal, physical or visual, that is based on a person's protected status. Examples of harassing conduct include: epithets, slurs, jokes, teasing, kidding, negative stereotyping, and threatening or hostile acts that relate to an individual's protected status, and physical acts of aggression, assault, or violence, regardless of whether these acts are being, or have been, investigated as criminal offenses by a law enforcement agency.
Any written or graphic material, including any electronically transmitted or displayed material that likewise denigrates or shows hostility toward members of these protected groups is considered harassment. Fontbonne University will not tolerate harassing conduct that:
- creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive working or academic environment.
- affects tangible employment benefits.
- interferes unreasonably with an individual's working or academic environment or performance.
This policy applies to complaints alleging harassment carried out by 1) University employees, 2) University students, and 3) third parties, in accordance with applicable law governing liability for third parties.
184.108.40.206 Sexual Harassment
Sexual harassment involves any one or more of unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other visual, verbal or physical conduct based on sex when:
- Such conduct has the purpose or effect of creating an intimidating, hostile or offensive working or learning environment or unreasonably interfering with an individual's work or academic performance.
- Submission to such conduct is an explicit or implicit term or condition of an individual's employment or academic activities.
- Submission to rejection of such conduct by an individual is used as the basis for employment or academic decisions affecting that individual.
Sexual harassment may include but not be limited to: unwanted sexual advances; explicit sexual propositions; displaying sexually suggestive objects; pictures or materials; sexual innuendo; sexually-oriented verbal abuse; sexually suggestive comments; unwanted contact such as touching, patting, stroking, pinching, or brushing against another's body; sexually oriented kidding, teasing or practical jokes; jokes about gender specific traits; foul or obscene gestures or language; and physical acts of aggression, assault, or violence, regardless of whether these acts are being, or have been, investigated as criminal offenses by a law enforcement agency (such as rape, sexual assault or battery, and stalking) made against a person's will or where a person is incapable of giving consent due to victim's age, intellectual disability, or use of drugs or alcohol. Sexual harassment also involves inappropriate conduct toward an individual which, although not motivated by sexual desire, would not have occurred except for that person's gender.
22.214.171.124 Reporting Procedures
All employees and students have the responsibility to assure that Fontbonne University's non-discrimination and anti-harassment policies are effective. Any University employee or student who experiences, observes, hears, or otherwise witnesses unlawful harassment or discrimination, or who receives a report of unlawful harassment or discrimination of which one or both is carried out by 1) University employees, 2) University students, or 3) third parties, in accordance with applicable law governing liability for third parties, must immediately notify either of the compliance coordinators identified above.
If a report of discrimination or harassment alleges involvement of the Vice President for Finance and Administration or the Director of Academic Services, then the report of discrimination or harassment may be made to the Vice President for Academic Affairs.
No employee or student is required to confront the alleged harasser or report that person's concern to the alleged harasser. The University will thoroughly and promptly investigate all complaints and take corrective or disciplinary action when appropriate. Likewise, the University will initiate a thorough investigation and take corrective or disciplinary action as appropriate against incidents of discrimination or harassment that come to the University's attention, regardless of whether a formal complaint is made.
Fontbonne University will investigate every harassment and discrimination complaint thoroughly, promptly and impartially and the parties will be given an opportunity to present witnesses and provide evidence. Fontbonne University will evaluate all relevant information and documentation relating to a complaint of discrimination or harassment. All investigations shall be conducted in a sensitive manner and, to the extent feasible, confidentiality will be honored. The investigation and all actions taken will be shared only with those who have a need to know. The investigation findings will be documented, and the complaining individual and the alleged harasser will be kept advised of the progress of the investigation and of the University's final determination. If, after investigation, Fontbonne University determines that an employee or student has engaged in illegal discrimination or harassment, appropriate disciplinary action, up to and including discharge or dismissal, will be taken against the offending individual. Fontbonne University will take prompt steps to prevent recurrence of any harassment or discrimination and correct its discriminatory effects on the complainant and others, as appropriate. In addition, the University will take immediate steps to stop any retaliation and prevent its recurrence against the alleged victim and any person(s) associated with the alleged victim.
In the event that the complaint involves an employee of the University, a complaint of alleged discrimination or harassment may also coincide with a Grievance (see online policy manuals, Volume V, paragraph 5.8). At the discretion of the University Administration, separate investigations may be conducted, or the investigations may be merged. Where allegations of sexual misconduct are brought against a student or student group, they will be handled via the Student Misconduct Policy in the student handbook (Volume VII or the Griffin Scratch) through the Code of Student Character and Conduct. The University will not wait for the conclusion or outcome of a criminal investigation or proceeding to begin an investigation required by this grievance procedure.
220.127.116.11 Investigation Procedures
Fontbonne University will provide a prompt, equitable resolution of complaints of discrimination by students, employees and beneficiaries of the University's programs and activities.
188.8.131.52.1. Level I - Informal Procedure
Informal procedures are designed to work out a mutually agreeable solution to a problem and are completely optional and voluntary. Any informal resolution activities will not delay the prompt, adequate, reliable and impartial investigation of the complaint of discrimination or harassment or interfere with the provision of immediate or interim actions, if necessary. Informal procedures are not appropriate for cases involving sexual misconduct and will therefore move immediately to a formal procedure as defined in the below paragraph 22.214.171.124.2.
At the option of the complainant only, it may be possible to resolve a harassment or discrimination complaint through a voluntary conversation between the complainant and the alleged harasser or discriminator, which conversation is facilitated by a University designee appointed by the Vice President for Finance and Administration. If the complainant, the accused, and the University designee feel that a resolution has been achieved through this informal procedure, then no further action need be taken. Fontbonne University recognizes that a voluntary conversation between the complainant and the alleged harasser may not be appropriate for harassment complaints. The results of any informal resolution shall be reported by the University designee in writing signed by the complainant and the accused, and submitted to the Vice President for Finance and Administration.
126.96.36.199.2. Level II - Formal Procedure
The complainant shall submit a written and signed complaint with the Vice President for Finance and Administration which clearly states the particulars concerning each incident of harassment or discrimination, including:
- the name and position of the accused
- the nature of discrimination or harassment
- the date(s) when the alleged harassment or discrimination occurred
- the details of the alleged conduct including any information that would support the complaint
- the redress that is sought
In the absence of a written complaint, the University will investigate any notifications of discrimination or harassment that may come to its attention. Such investigation will be considered a formal procedure.
The Vice President for Finance and Administration shall inform the Vice President(s) in whose area the accused and accuser are employed of the complaint, or, in the case of students, shall inform the Vice President for Student Affairs.
The Vice President for Finance and Administration will promptly investigate the complaint or will appoint a University designee to promptly investigate the complaint. The complainant and the accused will each be interviewed. The accused will be furnished with a copy of the written complaint and will have an opportunity to respond in writing within ten (10) working days.
Within twenty (20) working days after the time the accused has to respond in writing to the written complaint, the Vice President for Finance and Administration (or University designee, if applicable), will prepare investigation findings and, if appropriate, determine any corrective or disciplinary action to be taken. The Vice President for Finance and Administration will inform the appropriate Vice President or Dean of the findings of the investigation. Both the accused and the complainant will be informed in writing of the findings of the investigation by the Vice President for Finance and Administration within three (3) working days of the preparation of findings and, if appropriate, determination of corrective or disciplinary action.
220.127.116.11. Appeal Procedures
Individuals requesting an appeal of the findings of an investigation of a harassment or discrimination complaint must appeal in writing to the Vice President and Dean for Academic Affairs within ten (10) days of being informed of the findings of the investigation.
If an individual requests an appeal, the appeal must be in writing, and, if applicable, it must cite any alleged procedural or substantive error that occurred during the investigation, if applicable, and provide an account of any new information that has become available since the investigation was conducted.
Within ten (10) days after receipt of the written appeal, the Vice President and Dean for Academic Affairs must meet with the complainant and with the alleged harasser or discriminator. The written decision of the Vice President and Dean for Academic Affairs shall be issued within five (5) days of the latter of these two meetings and shall be final and binding.
If the underlying allegations involve the Vice President and Dean for Academic Affairs, then written request for appeal shall be made to another member of the Office of the President.
22.214.171.124 Retaliation Prohibited
Fontbonne University prohibits retaliation against any person who makes a complaint of discrimination or harassment, opposes discrimination or harassment, or testifies, assists or participates in an investigation proceeding or hearing relating to such discrimination or harassment. Retaliation includes, but is not limited to, any form of intimidation, reprisal, harassment or treatment based upon retaliatory motive that is reasonably likely to deter protected activity.
22.214.171.124.1 Right to Alternative Complaint Procedures
A student's complaints of discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, age, gender, gender orientation, national or ethnic origin, or disability, including complaints of racial, sexual or other unlawful harassment, may be filed with the:
U.S. Department of Education
Office for Civil Rights
8930 Ward Parkway, Suite 2037
Kansas City, Missouri 64114
Phone: (816) 268-0550; TDD: 1 (800) 437-0833; Email: firstname.lastname@example.com.

After dominating a team that was physically inferior and lacking Syracuses abundance of talent, the fourth-seeded Orange now meet a team very similar to them as they seek a spot in the NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 tonight in San Jose, Calif.
Routing Montana 81-34 on Thursday at HP Pavilion was simply a warm-up for what most expect to be a much tougher test in No. 12 California.
Like SU, the Golden Bears have abundant length in the frontcourt, athletic guards who can shoot, and a tendency to play mainly zone defense.
I hadnt seen them play before Thursday, but Im aware of their talent and their good players, said SUs Brandon Triche on Friday when asked about the local favorites from just 45 minutes away. From what we saw, they like to do a lot of the same things we do so it should be a very competitive game.
The Orange did just about everything right in blowing away Montana. They shot superbly (52 percent), defended magnificently (Montana shot 20 percent) and were just too big and physical for the Grizzlies on both ends.
Californias roster wont be intimidated like Montana appeared to be. The Bears possess seven players that stand 6-foot-9 or better, their top scorer is 6-6 wing player Allen Crabbe and starting point guard Justin Cobbs stands 6-3.
Their guards are really good, said SU coach Jim Boeheim. Crabbe is a tremendous shooter with great range. And Cobbs made some big plays down the stretch last night.
Crabbe, the Pac-12 Player of the Year, can stretch the zone because he can just shoot over it, said SUs James Southerland. So weve got to make sure we tag him on every possession.
California coach Mike Montgomery, who has become good friends with Boeheim over the last few years, said SUs 2-3 zone is not just good, its really active. They are so big and long. I compare it to the 1979 Michigan State team with Greg Kelser and Magic Johnson, he said. Its actually a 2-2-1 in the halfcourt, with the forwards up high. And they react to the ball as one.
California went 5-for-11 from long range versus UNLV.
Crabbe said contending with the SU zone will be tough. I know its not going to be easy to get shots, he said. You think youre going to get it off, and suddenly they close out on you quickly.
Cobbs said the key to attacking the Orange zone is trying to penetrate and get the ball to the high post. You dont want to go to the corners because they trap so well and find shooters like Allen.
SUs offense was relentless against Montana, moving the ball well and getting easy, open shots. It was a carryover of their good offensive movement from the Big East Tournament.
Were just in sync a lot better than we were before the Big East, Southerland said. The team has really come together, and now were making the extra pass to get a better shot. Consequently, were making more.
Montgomery said his clubs defensive effort against UNLV, holding the Rebels to 32 percent shooting and an 11-minute scoring drought in the second half, was due to great communication and great movement.
The Bears, traditionally a man-to-man club, played mainly zone because we just felt it was the right time, Montgomery said. Teams that play zone dont like to be zoned. Its odd. Hopefully, that will work against Syracuse, but they have an awful lot of weapons.
About Cals zone, Boeheim said: Its more of a 3-2 matchup than ours with plenty of man-to-man principles. But Im sure well see some man-to-man because thats what Mike is known for.
SU has come out of its shooting slump just in time for the postseason. In the last five regular-season games, the Orange was a woeful 20-for-86 (23 percent) on 3-pointers. In the five games since SU is 42-85, a resounding 49 percent.
If we see an open shot, were just going for it now, Southerland said. Maybe weve had a few more pump fakes to get us open. But the key is ball movement and just shooting with a lot more confidence.
As for the idea that the Bears are playing a home game less than an hours drive from their campus, Southerland said that will not bother the Orange. Weve won at Arkansas and Louisville, and those were their only home losses. So were used to the hostile environment.

Yeah, I just got mine when I renewed my eastmans subscriptions, cost something like $10 (shipping price). I wish the knife and blades came with a carry pouch so that I could keep them together. Mine showed up in a box. The knife did great on the antelope I shot earlier this month.
Yeah, mine came with the nylon version, but I bought mine. I guess you get the economy version for free. :)
I was also very disappointed with the havalons. Within 5 minutes i went through 3-4 blades working a bull elk. Maybe I did pry on it a little bit but would not trust this as my only knife in the field. Good thing my other 2 partners were able to pick up the slack while i was changing blades. I will carry the extra weight and know I have a good knife! Those who swear by them must have the hands of a surgeon.;)
Sharp, Very Sharp... Cut myself 3 times boning out a buck...The blade broke on me once... There ok. I will continue to use mine till i cut a finger off. LOL
IMO a dull knife is a dangerous knife.
I doubled down on elk this weekend and let me tell you the energy you save on a sharp knife. I love mine, incredibly sharp which saves you energy on big animals.... Just to get your butt kicked on a pack out:) I went through 2 blades on the 2 elk.
I love em...I've gutless field dressed five animals with mine this year. I just use my Benchmade around the hip sockets.
It's one of those products that I look at and think "why didn't I think of that one"....lol

WEST SENECA -- A West Seneca kindergartener needs your help. On Valentine's Day, doctors diagnosed Hayden Van Hauwaert with Type 1 Diabetes. Her family is getting her a Diabetic Alert Dog which could save Hayden's life, but the dog costs thousands of dollars.
Hayden's family is picking her puppy up in Salt Lake City later this month. She is a chocolate lab named Maggie.
Hayden is one of the estimated six-thousand children in Western New York diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. Last month, Hayden spent several days in the hospital after doctors figured out why she was sick. If her blood sugar gets too low or too high, she could die.
That's where the dog comes in. It can smell when Hayden needs medical attention.
"It's not going to make us go to bed at night and question if our daughter's gonna be alive when we wake up. Diabetics are known for dying in their sleep. That dog, just knowing that it's going to be in the house and can sense it, it's going to provide so much relief for all of us," says Hayden's mother Joelle Van Hauwaert.
The Van Hauwaert family is having a benefit for Hayden Saturday, March 23 at the Patchin Fire Hall. Tickets are $25 at the door.
The American Diabetes Association tells us it does not have a Diabetic Alert Dog program in Western New York, but it does know that they are gaining popularity all over the country.

Martin Health System spokesman Scott Samples looks out a second-story window Wednesday during a tour of Tradition Medical Center while discussing some of the advantages of the new hospital's location near Mann Research Center, Torrey Pines Institute for Molecular Studies and the Vaccine and Gene Therapy Institute of Florida (background) in the Tradition Center for Innovation in Port St. Lucie.
Rudy Vazquez of Siemens installs a VersaCell system Wednesday as he and other workers prepare a laboratory at the new Tradition Medical Center in Tradition. In addition to the laboratory, the hospital's second floor also houses four operating rooms, a pharmacy and has space to expand in the future.
Tradition Medical Center will have 90 beds available for patients when it opens in mid-December, but the hospital is designed to be scalable and can expand as the local need grows, according to Martin Health System spokesman Scott Samples. The smaller building, at right, is Mann Research Center, which connects to the hospital's main lobby.
"Team Tradition" is seen carved in cement outside the main Balfour Beatty Construction office on the north side of the Tradition Medical Center site.
Work continues on and inside Martin Health System's new Tradition Medical Center on August 28, 2013. The 90-bed hospital is scheduled to open in mid-December.

VL rear brake lining thickness?
I am peicing together rear brakes on my VL. I have brake shoes with what appear to be good used linings, however when I install shoes on backing plate and into drum, the linings are too tight in the drum. The rear wheel will barely turn. Can anybody tell me what the thickness of the rear brake linings should be. Can old linings swell, they do not fit right for some reason. Thanks!!

"I made these this past Thanksgiving for my daughters, my niece, and my nephews. They were a big hit. I saved a step and bought a tube of decorator's yellow icing, and I used sprinkles instead of chiclets for the buckles. They were so easy to make, and yummy too!"
"Very simple the 6 year old did these and had a lot of fun."
"Fun to make Thanksgiving morning with my 13 year old daughter while we watched the parade. Used plain white icing without the food coloring and looked just as good. Couldn't find Chiclets so cut slices of a Lifesaver Gummy and it worked great. Everyone loved them! They are our new Thanksgiving tradition!"
"I used mini m&m's and just picked out yellow and orange ones"
"Really easy to make. Couldn't find the chiclets gum so I used tic tacs instead. Took this to my daughter's classroom for her Thanksgiving feast and didn't get any back!!"

I know that a lot of you are skilled in the ways of Photo Shop; however, graphic design isn't my area. I prefer sculpture and ceramics, and I just recently started printmaking. Below are some of the artworks that I made very recently, and if anyone else has made any noodly fine art, I hope you share it here!
This is an intaglio print, entitled "The Noodly Creator." I have about a dozen others in varying color or just black. This is the one I didn't turn in for my final grade, so I do have nicer ones if anyone is interested.
The above is my soft sculpture of the FSM. I'm going to be putting it in my art show next fall, so if anyone has a suggestion on a title I would like to hear it. It's fun because when my friends come over they all touch the noodly appendages. (The photo is really bad, but if I get around to taking a nicer one I'll share it so you can see both meatballs at least!)
Now this is how I thought the ancient Egyptians would have seen the FSM; it's a ceramic relief. On the left-hand side the hieroglyphs read, "Given Life like FSM." (The FSM hieroglyph is one that I made up.)

The Other Bank
1994. China. Directed by Jiang Yue. Young students from across the country are invited to Beijing to perform a play written by future Nobel Laureate Gao Xingjian. The film documents their feverishly intense rehearsals, the phenomenal public reception of their performances, and their desperate attempts to sustain their euphoria and pursue artistic careers in Beijing. With its heartbreaking climactic performance, this is a penetrating reflection on the transformative effects of art (both theater and documentary film), and a portrait of a generation's quest to find fulfillment in 1990s China.

Regarding the recent uprising in the Redhat forum. I want to ask everyone not to respond to flame bait. If someone is pissy and posts something that causes someone to get pissed off, please don't respond. Keep topics on topic and let the mods(including you Alastair) take care of it either by deleting the post or moving it to Rants and Flames. By feeding into the fire it only makes it worse. I am in complete support of deleting such posts if they seem rather pissy, or even editing out(probably a better choice) the parts that are offensive if the post contains anything that is of atleast some importance. Then again, don't construe what is flame bait. If a topic goes completely off topic and someone wants it to get back on the path, saying "Can we please get this back on topic" or some form of this as long as it is resembling polite, is not flame bait. Anyways, I am sure you guys all get the drift. You regulars have heard this time and time again. We all know what my goal/objective is with GLO, and I plan on keeping it that way. Flame wars do not have a place here.
If you give a man a fire he'll be warm, if you light the man on fire he'll be warm for life.

There are many different kinds of institutions in a town that add to the populations well being. When people are asked which of those are the most important, a dozen different answers can emerge.
Some would site schools, others would say public safety and still others might say churches.
Few usually say businesses.
When the common citizens think of business they think about buying; buying groceries, buying clothes, buying cars, buying, buying buying,
Buying is good for business, particularly for local business.
But there is much more to business than just buying from them. What a business spends is important to the average person too. That's because spending comes in the form of goods and services in the local community. And the spending that is the most important is what a business puts out in payroll.
Some businesses are labor intensive, while others are not. But for most, payroll, payroll taxes and benefit payments are the largest part of their expenditures.
Over the years business has changed, because competition has changed. For instance the way a company mines coal today is very different from the way it was mined in the 1930's. In terms of production it is much more efficient, or in other words the amount of coal produced by a mine, based on inflation, is less expensive to produce than it was 70 years or for that matter 30 years ago. The reason? Reduced labor costs. The machines that grind the coal out of the ground have virtually replaced most of the miners who used to do it with drills and shovels.
New systems, from computers to transportation has changed every business in the county. That means fewer jobs for people with low skills and more jobs for people with higher skills.
Next to payroll, probably the biggest impact business has on a community is the amount of taxes it indirectly and directly pays.
Again look at the mineral extraction industries. These companies not only pay property taxes, but also royalties to the federal government for much of what they take out of the ground. They also, of course, pay payroll taxes and many other fees and charges as well.
The money that is paid in taxes or royalties eventually is spread over the entire country, with a small percentage coming back to the county from which the minerals were taken. In Utah this is often done in the form of grants from the Permanent Community Impact Fund or it is put into special service districts.
In the case of Carbon County, the Recreation and Transportation Special Service District is the designated entity for some of this money.
In the last few years that year to year funding has increased dramatically, with it now running into the millions of dollars.
In 1989 the fund took in $468,000. In 2005 the fund was granted $6,817,000. By all accounts the RTSSD takes in the most money of any other local government agency in the county.
What many people forget however, is that all that money is generated by private business, although indirectly. Government produces very little of its own income by anything it does. It may collect fees, taxes, tariffs or whatever, but it does not produce.
Carbon Counties tax base is small compared to many other counties, when considering sales tax, property tax and other fees. By mid-2005 the county had already generated gross taxable sales of over $191 million dollars. But with a population that varies between 19-20,000 people, that is still respectable.
Money from different government agencies in the county come from various sources. Schools get much of their money from property taxes and some from the state. The county collects from property tax and sales tax, along with the cities.
Much of this money is generated by private citizens, through purchases, ownership and other activities. A good deal also comes directly from business.
With that in mind, direct wages paid by private industry contributes a large chunk of change to the public sector.
In 2004 the top four wage payers in the county were private companies in the areas of mining, transportation and utilities, manufacturing and construction.
The average highest wage earners were those that worked in the mining industry, earning an average of $5,949 per month. Transportation and utility companies paid workers an average of $4,388, while manufacturing was very far behind at $2,784, and construction at $2,738.
Retail and wholesale trade workers averaged $1,977.
Government workers came in with an average of $2,224.
Of course many private jobs are also dependent on government decisions. For instance, construction on the new Carbon County ambulance garage and maintenance shops on Airport Road are accounting for some good income for a number of workers in the county. Without the grants and low cost loans to build these buildings, those jobs would not exist.
But despite that, Carbon county's well being seems to be improving overall, with the Department of Employment Security reporting early this spring that many jobs are going begging for applicants.
A recent poll conducted by the county's department of economic development showed that most private employers see their businesses improving over the next year by a 2-1 margin.
However, as always, local businesses are facing ever increasing outside competition, some of which pays little or no compensation to local government entities for doing business in the county. The two biggest hits some businesses are taking include out of area buying (called leakage by economists) and internet purchases.
"Going over the mountain" is a substantial pass time for many in the area. They buy everything from groceries to cars, and everything in between. This has been of concern to local businesses for many years.
Estimates on loss are done by looking at sales tax averages for a population and then those averages are applied to a local area. In Carbon county's case, in some categories there is a real drain on the area. But in other areas, the county shows a gain, often substantial. Those gains are usually connected to tourist industry spending, such as for fuel and convenience store purchases.
Secondly, more and more people purchase what they need over the internet. This is particularly true of those under 30 years of age, although a growing number of those in middle age and seniors are also discovering the shopping possibilities.
Internet sellers pay no sales tax (unless they are based with in the state) and few pay any other kinds of taxes unless their business location is within the county. No substantial estimates are available for how much money is going out of the county for items bought this way, but national statistics show that the growth in internet sales is going up in the double digits annually.
This not only means challenges for local business, but also for local government as well, which lives by economic ups and downs.

POTSDAM The towns final assessment roll has been filed, and the courts are the only resort left for disgruntled property owners.
After a controversial townwide reassessment, the total taxable value of all Potsdam properties is just under $528.8 million. This is an 11.5 percent increase from last year.
It also is $10.7 million less than the tentative assessment roll filed in April.
Since April, property owners have had numerous chances to have their assessments reduced. First, they were able to schedule informal meetings with assessor James P. Snyder. During those meetings, Mr. Snyder was able to change an assessment if he felt that he had made a mistake.
Once the period for informal meetings passed, taxpayers had another chance to convince Mr. Snyder to alter their assessment. During this time, they could sign a stipulated agreement that fixed their assessment and made it illegal for them to grieve it or take it to court.
According to Mr. Snyder, 210 stipulated agreements were signed this year.
Finally, property owners who still were not satisfied presented their cases to the towns Board of Assessment Review in May. The board looked at 292 grievance claims and made its final decisions last week.
We had many, many more this time than we ever had, said Chairman K. William Grant.
Not everybody saw the reduction they were hoping for, Mr. Grant said, partly because people gave the board too little information.
This is the worst that people have been to give us proper information, he said.
When presenting to the board, the burden is on the property owner to prove that their assessment is in error. Usually, this requires a recent appraisal of property value, along with comparisons to similar properties in the same community.
This year, people presented appraisals from as early as 2005, and comparisons with properties in other communities. Such information, Mr. Grant said, cannot be effectively used to launch a grievance claim.
The reassessment has drawn criticism from hundreds of town residents who fear that higher assessed property values will lead to higher taxes.
Higher assessments do not automatically mean higher taxes. If everyones assessment goes up, the burden will be spread evenly among all, assuming town, county and school budgets remain similar.
However, anyone whose property value goes up by more than that of similar properties, will end up footing more of the bill.
More than 320 taxpayers signed a petition to have the assessment rolled back to last years figures, but such petitions have no legal standing.
Those who want to take their assessment to court will have to file a claim by July 31.

Young entreprenuers bring gaming back to Carbon county for youngsters of all ages
For baby boomers the games remembered include Monopoly, Candyland and Life.
But for those who are their kids, the names of their games are much different: Super Mario, Pitfall, Donkey Kong.
For today's youngsters, their favorites include Magic-The Gathering, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Batman: Arkham City.
And the Game Hub has it all by buying, trading, selling and offerning a myriad of services to gamers in the area.
"We've sold just about every kind of game out of our store here in Price," said Troy Olson, the young 20 something part owner of the business. "If they've made it we have sold it..." and then he paused. "Well everything but Coleco."
The store opened originally in Wix Plaza just a year ago and has been such a big hit with locals that the ownership decided to move to a larger location, one that has held probably 30 businesses in the last 20 years, but has high visibility. They just relocated a few weeks ago to the northwest corner of 100 North and 300 East in Price. Orginally an old grocery store, the original business probably survived on walkins from the neighborhood, before big supermarkets began to serve the area. But lack of parking around the building has doomed it in the recent past to either being a graveyard for the businesses there or a stepping stone.
However for the Game Hub, parking is not a very big deal. Most of their clientelle ride bicycles or are dropped off by parents. That's because, while some of their customers are college age or even older adults, the vast majority are kids.
"Our average customer age is probably 16-17 years old, although we do get some adults in here who like to look through the games and the play titles that they did when they were kids. But we do get a lot of young kids too."
Yes it could be considered a retro store, with retro games and retro machines. However, a modern console setup along with the latest gaming systems are also there for anyone to play.
"We have a lot of parents who bring their kids here to play on our machines, because for a buck an hour they can play what they want," stated Olson. "It's a great for those families who can't afford the machines or the on-line participation costs."
Olson and his two partners, Kevin Johnson and Daren Gardner got the idea of starting a game store because for a long time they were Halo pro-teamers, traveling from tournament to tournament. A game store seemed like a great idea. And one in Price that offers everything is almost ideal.
However, business doesn't grow just by doing a couple of things or selling in only one way. The store's on-line sales have gone through the roof this holiday season.
"During the rest of the year we are selling maybe eight to 10 games a day and sending them out," said Olson. "Right now in preparation for Christmas the orders have grown to 30-40 per day. While we could survive on what we make from local business, on-line sales certainly help our bottom line."
The store also offers a number of other things. First it sells game systems along with things like Ipods. It also will soon have a comic book wall. The conversation about comics quickly brought out the enthusiam for what many of the people standing around listening to the interview think is the best game ever. The recently released Batman: Arkham City.
"That game is amazing," said Mitch Ewan. "It has everything, almost every arch villain that Batman has ever faced is in it. It even has a mini-computer in it that lets you look up information on all the characters in Batman's comic books. It is so detailed. It's a game fans will fall in love with."
But regardless if one wants to play old games or new games, the way the Game Hub works as a social gathering point for kids is amazing.
Each Friday night the store puts on a tournament called Friday Night Magic. Players can come in for very little money and compete with one another via Magic: The Gathering.
And then there is the Friday Night Lockin. Some parents think it is the best thing since sliced bread.
It starts at midnight on Friday and runs until 7 a.m. on Saturday morning. Parents can bring in their kids and the youngsters can play to their hearts content. The kids aren't actually locked in the building, but they are not allowed to leave without their parents coming and getting them.
"Most stay up the whole night and have a great time," said Olsen. "If they fall asleep on us we call the parents to come and get them."
The Friday Night Lockin takes place once a month, but because of the holidays it will be held both on Dec. 16 and Dec. 23 this month.
It's a fun time, but also a business. Sometimes when one starts a business out of a hobby the hobby loses its charm. But so far, not for Olson.
"Despite some pressures, it hasn't ruined it for me yet," concluded Olson as he went off to help some young customers looking to have fun.


text: Items 49 to 60 of 228 total View 12 / 24 / 48 Previous 1 ... 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 ... 19 Next Digital all the way! By Scott on 5/7/2014 Scott would recommend this product to a friend I've had many phosphate test and matching colors is always hit or miss. Having a true digital reading is great . As people have said use both vials -makes the testing much easier. The packets are a bit of a pain- you have to be careful when cutting and adding them into the vial. Overall, I feel this is the best phosphate tester for the money Not bad By Matt on 4/17/2014 Matt would recommend this product to a friend Nice little gadget. 10 times easier to use than a normal test kit. The only two problems are: is extremely difficult to get the reagents into the test tube, and sometimes the automatic display shut off can ruin a test by exiting before you can see the results. Great product By wing on 4/16/2014 wing would recommend this product to a friend Testing phosphate with simple procedure. No color matching guess. Easy and Precise measurement By GUnit on 4/3/2014 GUnit would recommend this product to a friend This is the easiest and quickest test kit for phosphate that I've used. I'm a sucker for precision and not having to guess at colors so this test kit is ideal for that. The couple of recommendations that I would have for people buying/using this test kit are: 1) When doing the test use BOTH vials. This is key to avoid having the meter turn off on you while you combine the reagent with the sample (2 minute shake time vs 2 minute auto shutoff.... :( ) Fill both with the appropriate amount of sample. Set one aside with the cap on. Add the reagent to the second and begin the 2 minutes mix/shake. About half way into the shake drop the first non-reagent sample into the meter and calibrate. After you're done shake drop the vial with reagent in an get a reading! 2) Buy more reagent immediately (or shortly thereafter) as you only get 10ish reagent packets in the kit. Awesome By David on 3/25/2014 David would recommend this product to a friend This a great meter,I am color blind so these types of meters are a must. Wow! By the shack on 3/22/2014 the shack would recommend this product to a friend this is a great meter being in the wastewater industry this meter is just as good as any desktop meter you can buy. They must have reprogramed these meters because mine times out after three minutes which is more than enough time to analyze a sample. The packets they supply are hard to use, however, the reagents out of the box you can buy are fantastic. This is great easy way to measure phosphates accurately, affordably, and fast. Good bye I say to the days of guessing which color is closer for 60 dollars this and a box of reagents are the best invesment for the money you can buy for a sps tank. Less Guess By Tim on 3/20/2014 Tim would recommend this product to a friend Finally a low range phosphate test that I don't feel I'm guessing with. I'm surprised the 25 count reagent box doesn't fit properly in the case. Hanna phos checker By guy on 3/18/2014 guy would recommend this product to a friend Beats trying to compare to a color chart which you can not see a difference in. Digital readout is great once again great phos test but not enough reagents By jeff on 2/28/2014 jeff would recommend this product to a friend easy to use. simple to read. but nowhere does it mention the lack of reagents on the info page. forget that for $50 they could toss in more tests. even if they toss in thirty tests and charge you $60, id be okay with it cus the test is worth it. but i placed a $400 order and could have got the additional reagents with free shipping if it just mentioned that it was needed. but now i had to pay for addition shipping. just feels kind of busch league for such a great product bought from such a great company. Outstanding By Ourisland42 on 2/20/2014 Ourisland42 would recommend this product to a friend Unbelievable! Best money spent. Spend the extra money you will not regret it. Yes the reagent packets can be difficult at first..... I just cut off one corner off the packet (small opening) and tap the powder into the glass container. Works every time for me. No more color wheel / charts! I keep the old color wheel around to remind me of the difficulty / guess work I previously had. When it is time to reorder reagent packets, one look at the color wheel and I don't mind spending the extra money on the packets. Buy larger quantities to save money. No more guessing. As always, LOVE the BRS experience!!! Surprised By Mike on 2/19/2014 Mike would recommend this product to a friend I love having this tester. The other tester I used I had to compare colors. Now I just have to read the digital number. It gives me a more accurate reading then my guessing what color it is. Easy to Use By Matt on 2/17/2014 Matt would recommend this product to a friend The Hanna Phosphate checker is very easy to use and does all the work for you. Works for most, but be cautious if you are an SPS junkie and/or looking to run an ultra low nutrient setup, as this checker has a margin of error of up to +/- .04The actual piece of equipment is great, however the reagent is a different story. The packets aren't really user friendly and only six packets come with your order.

Summer is upon us so what will you do in your free time to learn more about your family history?
Here are 5 Tips for Summer Family History Fun
- Create a list of family members to search for in a cemetery. Make a scavenger hunt sheet or BINGO card for all of the family members. Have your kids help you locate the graves to complete the sheets.
- Dig out your old recipes and prepare a baked good or meal that one of your ancestors used to make.
- Gather together with grandparents and aunts and uncle to go through old photographs. How many people can you identify? Write the names on the backs of the photos.
- Visit a place your family used to live or a place you grew up. Show your kids your old haunts and tell them the stories that go with those places.
- Encourage your child to keep a journal or create a scrapbook over the summer about their daily events, what they ate, where they went, memorable moments, etc. It is important not only to research and remember the past but also preserve the present.

By C.J. MCMANUSSun Advocate community editor
Released in near conjunction with Mining Safety and Health Administrations record fining of Genwal Resources Inc. and Agapito Associates, an independent review of MSHA's actions at Crandall Canyon details the safety and health administrations shortcomings before, during and after the tragedy.
"The independent review team identified many deficiencies in MSHA's actions at the Crandall Canyon mine prior to the Aug. 6, 2007 accident, during the subsequent rescue operation and in other aspects of MSHA's performance, policies and procedures," states the reports findings near the end of their executive summary.
The IRT consisted of Earnest Teaster and Joseph Pavlovich, two former MSHA managers who have been retired from the agency for several years. According to the review, they were chosen to oversee the investigation because of their expertise in mining policy and because they have no current ties to MSHA. The teams report was submitted to Department of Labor Secretary Elaine Chow on July 21.
The IRT begins their report by attacking MSHA's plan approval process. Accusing the safety and health administration of:
Inadequate evaluation of the engineering data submitted by the operator to justify mining in the north and south barriers.
Inadequate oversight of the plan evaluation and approval process by District nine management, (the district which oversees Crandall Canyon).
Inadequate resolution of inconsistencies identified in the engineering data that was submitted to justify mining in the barriers.
During MSHA's report given at the Greenwell Inn on July 24, Distict 11 Manager, Richard Gates claimed that company officials had downplayed the mine's instability and engineers at Agapito had provided inaccurate and data.
"That area was primed for a massive pillar collapse," said Gates of the area where the Aug. 6 collapse occurred. "And the assumptions that Agapito made were overly optimistic."
Aside from improper evaluation of the pillars, the IRT accuses MSHA of "failure to properly consider the impact of the March 10, 2007 bounce in the north barrier section prior to approving retreat mining in the south barrier section."
The IRT team also outlines that there were contradictions between the approved plans and the engineering date that was submitted to justify plan approval.
While the IRT does stipulate that the mine operator was in violation of reporting statutes concerning the March 10, 2007 bounce, it does state that MSHA's Billy Owens, District Nine Roof Control Branch Supervisor was made aware of the incident.
"Notes taken by Owens indicates a 12:00 noon phone call on March 12 from Laine Adair, General Manager for the Crandall Canyon Mine, in which pillar bouncing is mentioned," states the IRT report. "Similarly, notes taken by William Reitze, District 9 Ventilation Branch Supervisor, pertaining to conversations with Adair on March 12 and 13 repeatedly use the word 'bounce'. The calls with Reitze pertained to an issue with constructing seals for the area, which ultimately escalated to the point where Davis was involved. As part of the seal issue discussion, Davis was informed that the section was being withdrawn due to bounces."
MSHA actions show that they did not deem this reporting as adequate.
They fined the mine operator severely for not immediately contacting MSHA within 15 minutes of the March 10, 2007 accident. An incident where a coal outburst in the Main West north barrier threw coal into the mine openings, disrupting regular mining activities for more than one hour.
"The failure to report this accident denied MSHA an opportunity to investigate it and learn that the mining methods provided inadequate protections," states the MSHA Enforcement Actions Report.
"This failure contributed to the Aug. 6, 2007 fatal accident."
The report goes on to further critique the MSHA's inspection of the mine and detail what they see as oversight of many problems concerning changes to Crandall's roof control plan in the months and days prior to the Aug. 6 accident.
The report, found at www.msha.gov chronicles the step by step process Billy Owens, District Nine Roof Control Branch Supervisor, took as the roof control plan was developed and changed at Crandall Canyon.
The IRT also found fault in many of MSHA's actions during the rescue operation.
Stating, "MSHA's approval to use rockprops for lateral protection during the rescue effort was appropriate and was further supported by NIOSH. However, MSHA failed to utilize the knowledge and experience of the district nine roof control supervisor, the manufacture or the distributor and failed to solicit input from inspectors.
Even if this knowledge and experience had been utilized, there is no way of knowing where the support system could have been altered to withstand the forces of the Aug. 16, 2007 bounce." The IRT recommendation for this oversight was that MSHA develop a program to train personnel in charge of rescue and recovery operations. Along with many other training facets, the IRT proposed that this training addresses the importance of soliciting and utilizing the experience and expertise of all pertinent resources, especially concerning technical issues."
In a response to the IRT report, Richard Stickler, Deputy Secretary of Labor for Mine and Safety Health agreed that changes needed to be made within his organization. And he defended that fact that MSHA had already made many such changes.
"We should always look for additional and better ways to protect miners. The purpose of the IRT's report is to help MSHA learn from the Crandall Canyon tragedy and identify areas for improvement.
While we disagree with some of the report's findings, many of the recommendations are helpful and MSHA intends to adopt changes that will be effective in moving forward that goal," said Stickler.
A full account of Sticklers comments can also be found at the MSHA site, however, with presentations still to be made to the U.S. Attorney General the finger pointing over Crandall Canyon is far from over.

CANTON - The North Country Regional Economic Development Council has announced its priority projects for this years round of competitive grant applications, listing 16 projects regionwide with up to $25 million on the line.
Ten regions across the state all submitted proposals that will be evaluated in Albany. The top five will receive $25 million each for their priority projects, while the rest will have to split $25 million between them.
The NCREDC has been among the states biggest winners in the first two years of the program, and is hoping for a repeat performance with a focus on tourism in this years applications.
Two Ogdensburg Bridge and Port Authority initiatives are listed as priority projects, including $1.2 million marketing campaign to draw Canadian tourists across the border to the north country.
The authority is also seeking $475,000 to improve St. Lawrence County bridges and install grain silos in Ogdensburg to promote agricultural shipping.
We are excited that they are on the priority list, and we think that they are important projects for the north country, said port authority Deputy Executive Director Frederick S. Morrill.
The Development Authority of the North Country, Watertown, also has an agricultural focus with its priority project. The group seeks $1 million to create a loan fund that could be used to create or expand agricultural businesses across the region.
Anything that has to do with agriculture or production of any type of crops, were looking to help expand businesses that utilize those resources, said Michelle L. Capone, Director of Regional Development at the development authority.
Maple producers, wineries and more will be eligible for loans if the grant money is received, she said, calling the NCREDCs decision to name the fund a priority project an indication of the importance of agriculture in the area.
Its the regions recognition that agriculture and value-added agriculture is a major part of our economy in the north country, and its a recognition that these businesses have special needs as well, she said.
Also in Watertown, COR Arsenal Street Company of Fayetteville, seeks $5 million to demolish the buildings on the site of the former Mercy Hospital, clearing the way to start building apartments.
Most projects are asking for state funds to cover only part of their expenses, with the rest being covered by private investment or other public sources.
The state will make its decision in late December, determining the fate of these projects and others like them statewide.
The following is the complete list of the NCREDCs priority projects, along with the amount of money requested from the state:
n Value-Added Agriculture Program, a region wide initiative by the Development Authority of the North Country. $1 million.
n Bombardier Mass Transit Employee Training, Plattsburgh. Asking $40,922 in public funds.
n Inn on Schroon Lake. $819,000.
n Bionique Testing Laboratories Facility Expansion, Saranac Lake. $700,000.
n Wild Walk Phase 2 by the Wild Center, Tupper Lake. $464,000.
n Lake Flower Lodging, Saranac Lake. $2.2 million.
n Plattsburgh International Airport Terminal Expansion. $6.49 million.
n Seagle Music Colony Facility, Schroon Lake. $189,000.
n Adirondack Museum Exhibition Master Plan Phase 1, Blue Mountain Lake. $2.95 million.
n Port of Ogdensburg Agribusiness Capacity. $475,440.
n Hotel Saranac. $5 million
n Adirondack North Country Product Branding, a region wide initiative by the Adirondack North Country Association. $100,000
n North Country Market NY Joint Marketing Initiative, A region wide initiative by the Ogdensburg Bridge and Port Authority. $1.09 million.
n Cycle Adirondacks, an annual week-long bicycle tour through Essex, Franklin, Lewis, Hamilton, Oneida, and Herkimer counties by the WildlifeConservation Society. $211,750.
n SterRx manufacturing facility, Plattsburgh, $1,101,000.
n Mercy Hospital redevelopment by COR Arsenal Street Co., $5 million.
The NCREDC endorsed two priority projects in support of its Opportunity Agenda:
Jefferson- Lewis Machinist Training Program

North Country Innovation Hot Spot at Clarkson University. An Innovation Hot Spots work group led by Clarkson University is competing for one of five Hot Spots across the state to advance transfer of technology from the regions academic community to commercialization.
Finally, the council endorsed two priority projects in alignment with its Cleaner Greener Communities plan:
Removing Barriers to Institutional Wood Pellet Heating
North Country Multi-County Implementation Plan
The following list of Other Regionally Significant Priorities and Initiatives are also included in the progress report, calling for focused attention to move these projects forward or address these needs in various ways, in addition to the Priority Project list put forward for direct funding:

Beloit, WI -- The Beloit College Football team couldn't rebound from a good first half by visiting Knox College on Saturday at Strong Stadium, falling 31-21.
The Prairie Fire scored 21 first-half points to lead 21-7 at the break. Trailing 14-0 with four minutes left in the half, Kam Sallee hit Michael Nolden with a nine-yard scoring pass to cap a nine-play drive and pull the Bucs back within 14-7. But KC got a long run and converted it into a short score for the final say in the first 30 minutes.
The teams traded touchdowns in the third quarter. After Knox scored on a short run at 9:09 Mason Dixon finished up an 84-yard drive with a 33-yard TD run to keep Beloit within two TDs. The Prairie Fire built their lead back up to three scores with a field goal at 5:31 of the fourth before Evan Phillips hit Jon Fuller with an eight-yard scoring pass to complete a quick 2:17 drive, but that was as close as the Buccaneers could get as time ran out.
Dixon had his fourth straight 100-yard rushing game with 126 on 17 carries. Sallee added 58 yards on the ground. Phillips threw for 72 yards on 7-8 passing. Nolden caught five passes for 54 yards to lead the receiving corps. Lukeson Versulien had 15 yards rushing and 116 on kickoff returns, including a 43-yarder.
On defense, Antonio Jones and Jake Fisher each had ten tackles, including seven solo stops for Jones. Brian Flanagan, John Taylor and David Lafayette added nine each. Lafayette also had a sack and an interception.
Beloit stays at home next Saturday when they host Illinois College in a 2:00 p.m. kickoff at the Stadium.
