Cranberry Quince Preserves
I don't know about you guys but come Thanksgiving Day I am all about the sides. I usually skip the turkey all together, opting to pile my plate high with stuffing, potatoes and veggies while making sure to save lots of room for pie and ice cream. Cranberry sauce tends to be an overlooked and generally unliked part of turkey day dinner, but for me, no holiday spread is complete without a big bowl of the vibrant red stuff. This year I can't wait to crack open a jar of this sweet, spicy, tart preserve and slather it on some parker house rolls and I am going to send my family in Seattle a jar so they can do the same. What is your favorite part of Thanksgiving?
Cranberry Quince Preserves
yield, about 4 pints
3/4lb fresh or frozen cranberries
1 1/2lbs peeled, cored, and diced quince (1/2'' sized pieces)
4c sugar
3c water (ed 11/12)
2 oz peeled and grated fresh ginger, about a 3'' long piece, less if you would prefer a less spicy preserve
Zest and juice of one lemon
Zest and juice of one orange
cleaned and sterilized jars and lids
1. In a large pot over medium high heat dissolve the sugar into the water, then add the chopped quince, grated ginger, lemon zest and juice, and the orange zest and juice. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the quince is soft. About 15 min.
2. When the quince has softened, add in the cranberries and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook until the cranberries have popped and the mixture has thickened slightly, about 15-20min.
3. Ladle the hot preserves into prepared jars, wipe the rims with a clean towel and process in a hot water bath for 10min.

OH NO YOU DIDN'T! cranberry sauce is my total flava fav. i always hog the whole bowl for myself on turkey day (not very nice, i know). must. try. this.ReplyDelete
Yes! I feel like I am the only one who ever eats the cranberries! I always offer to take home the leftovers too...ReplyDelete
A perfect side for celebrating Thanksgiving! Quince and cranberries are a compelling combination to do a wee bit more canning before holiday mania overtakes our kitchens with sweets.ReplyDelete
Ooh, cranberries and quince! That sounds delicious. You know... I've never thought to actually SKIP the turkey. I always feel obligated to add a couple slabs to my plate, but not because I actually want to. Haha.ReplyDelete
these are all my favorite things in one pot! just made it and it turned out wonderfully. i found the 4c water to be too much so it took much longer to cook it all down to a good setting point (@40mins). but the end result was fab! thanks for another wonderful recipe!ReplyDelete
Heather - I'm so glad you tried it and thanks for the tip about the water.ReplyDelete
Wow, quince sounds like the PERFECT pair with cranberries. They're often a bit too tart for me, but I never like to go too crazy with the sugar in sauces, preserves, etc. The floral, honey-like quality of quince sounds divine with cranberry.ReplyDelete
I just saw quince in the Whole Foods in NY- they sure are funny little knobbly fellows! I'm so glad I now know two things to make with them, thank you!ReplyDelete
I was just asking about quince and I would really like to find some. This sounds like a great recipe. Thanks!ReplyDelete
I'm so excited to eat this! Thanks again for the jar! Happy turkey day!ReplyDelete

HELPER/SPRINGVILLE - Michael C. Branagan Sr., age 58, passed away March 25, 2005, at Utah Valley Regional Medical Center after a three year battle with cancer.
Born May 17, 1946, in Spanish Fork to Ronald E. and Shirley Ainge Branagan.
Michael was a member of the Matt Warner Chapter of the Clampers, the VFW, and the National Rifle Association. He was an avid hunter and fisherman. Michael was a former resident of Helper prior to moving to Springville.
Survived by two children, April (Keith) Adams, Springville; Michael (Kristen) Branagan, Sunnyside; four grandchildren, Preston, Kaitlyn, Bridger and Conner; two brothers, Ronald (Shirley) Branagan, Payson; Steven Branagan, Springville; and sister, Susan.

Memorial service Saturday, April 2, 4 p.m., Mitchell Funeral Home, 233 East Main Street. Family will be at Mitchell's one half hour prior to service.
HELPER - God's finger touched her and she slipped away from earth's dark shadows to a brighter day. He saw the road was rough, and the hill was hard to climb and so he gently closed her eyes and whispered "Peace be Thine." God took her to a better place, where she would have only peace and love behind the golden door. She is home.
Margie Jacobs Nelson Briest was born Sept. 10, 1906, in Sandovall, Ill., to Laura Stonecipher and Walter Jacobs.
She had many wonderful stores of traveling from Illinois to Utah in a covered wagon with her family. Our mother had a great sense of humor and a quick wit. She liked going on picnics, making quilts, crocheting and embroidering on kitchen towels, but most of all, she liked "holding babies". If someone would mention, "let's go", she would have her bags packed.
She lived many places in Utah, but loved being in Helper and there over 40 years. Her happiest memories of growing up, was in Skull Valley. She was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She held different positions over the years and later went through the temple.

Highlights From the Archives
The Shape of Time
In the 81 years since Marcel Proust's death, ''In Search of Lost Time'' has come to seem ever more indispensable. It's remarkable that this 3,000-page novel, initially dismissed by many as the work of a self-indulgent neurotic dilettante, has become the crucial modernist work, overtopping the books of even such giants as Joyce and Mann.January 25, 2004 artsReview
A Life Transformed, Marcel's Way
In the case of Marcel Proust, there was a ludicrous gap between his life and art. A sycophantic snob and posturing dandy, he frittered away his youth -- and his father's money -- trying to ingratiate himself with the idle rich; in his masterpiece, ''Remembrance of Things Past,'' he would transform those frivolous experiences into a luminous meditation on the nature of time and memory and loss.September 5, 2000 artsReview
Film Review: Seeing Proust Through The Prism Of Surrealism
The Chilean filmmaker Raul Ruiz has approached that literary Godzilla, Marcel Proust's ''Remembrance of Things Past,'' from the most challenging vantage point possible. It is Mr. Ruiz's aspiration to synthesize the themes and characters of Proust's monumental work in a single film. In the face of such a daunting prospect, a running time of 158 minutes is really no time at all.June 16, 2000 moviesReview
2 Biographies Shed New Light on an Author Who Never Seems to Go Out of Style
What is it about Proust that makes him of such enduring interest? ''Like Proust, we are going through a fin de siecle,'' said William Carter, one of his biographers. ''In the novel he really traces the effects of modern inventions, machines of mass transit, on our perceptions of time and space.''April 13, 2000 artsNews
Proust's Life and Art, A Truly Proustian Mix
Memory -- summoned, enhanced and preserved through his remarkable gift of language -- became the means by which Proust transformed his short life, and gave the depressing shards of his daily existence the permanence and redemptive beauty of art.November 13, 1990 artsReview

This investigation describes and demonstrates a novel technique for the visualization of magnetic fields. Two ferrofluid Hele-Shaw cells have been constructed to facilitate the imaging of magnetic field lines. We deduce that magnetically induced photonic band gap arrays similar to electrostatic liquid crystal operation are responsible for the photographed images and seek to mathematically prove the images are of exact dipole nature.
This is the last of the video series, the three/four magnet version.

A wise beauty editor once told us that exfoliation is to skin care as location is to real estate. We clutched our un-scrubbed face in our hands and made a solemn vow never to forsake this important task again.
In the years since we received this sounds advice we spent hours at Sephora, grimly muttering, "Exfoliation, exfoliation, exfoliation," and searching the dizzying area of skin sloughers. Much like Goldilocks, some scrubs were too harsh and some were too soft. This year we finally hit upon the right one. Created by lovely facialist Kate Somerville (her eponymous spa is one of our favorites, clients include Jessica Alba), Kate in a Jar is loyalty inducing. It's full of papaya fruit and rosewood oil, and can both remove dead skin and make what remains cashmere soft. It also keeps our chin bumps at bay without drying out our skin.
We saw the informed beauty editor recently and she commented on our glow. Were we exercising? Hardly. Eating our green? Not intentionally. In love? Perhaps... Kate in a Jar. ($85, 800.984.KATE, www.katesomerville.com )

This workshop has two registration options. You can register as a Handler, and bring your own dog to work with, or you can register as an Observer. This is the Handler option. You are going to have so much fun at this workshop and afterwards, you'll understand your dog much better and your dog will be much more reliable off-leash, with faster and flashier performances. The reliability-testing day is fascinating to the extreme, revealing how dogs learn and accelerating training. The games are just so enjoyable for dogs, owners and observers alike and the dogs get better and better as the games proceed. You are going to have an absolute blast whether play-training your dog or observing the proceedings.

Just a quick question about SLRP benefits. My contract states that my SLRP is contingent upon remaining in my bonus-elligible MOS and unit. It also states that acceptance of a technician or AGR job will nullify the SLRP. Does this include ADOS gigs? On a related note, does this mean I'm unable to volunteer for deployment/activation with other units in my state on a temporary basis? I would love to help with duties overseas, but the unit I will be assigned to after BCT/AIT recently returned, and with everything winding down, I'm not sure they'll be heading out again any time soon. Thanks in advance!

En Español| Q. I hear that each fall, Social Security announces changes to its benefits for the following year. What changes will take place in 2013?
A. You've probably already heard of the most important one, a 1.7 percent cost-of-living adjustment (COLA), which will go to 56 million Social Security beneficiaries starting next January. The 8 million people who receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI), a separate benefit, will get their increased payments starting in December of this year.
The COLA is based on the percentage increase of the Consumer Price Index of the third quarter of 2012 compared with the figure for the third quarter of 2011.
Get in on the discussion: Join the AARP Politics — Current Event Group
But at this time of year, Social Security also recalculates other crucial numbers that can affect the taxes you pay and the benefits you receive.
• Maximum Taxable Earnings. In 2012, workers paid Social Security taxes on income up to $110,100. In 2013, the figure will rise to $113,700, based on an increase in average wages. There's no income limit on the taxes that workers pay for Medicare taxes.
• Social Security Credits. When people work and pay Social Security taxes, they earn credits toward retirement and other benefits. In 2012, workers received one credit for each $1,130 of earnings, up to a maximum of four credits a year. In 2013, it will take $1,160 to earn one credit. Generally, a worker needs 40 credits (10 years of work) to be eligible for benefits.
• Retirement Earnings Test. When people age 62 to full retirement age (currently 66) receive retirement benefits and continue to work, they face a limit on what they can earn before they have to "give back" some of their benefits.
In 2012, workers had to give back $1 in benefits for every $2 in earnings above the limit of $14,640. In 2013, that limit will rise to $15,120.
This formula applies only until the year in which the worker reaches full retirement age. For the months up to the month of the birthday, a different formula applies: In 2012, Social Security was holding back $1 in benefits for every $3 that such a worker earned above $38,880. In 2013, that limit will increase to $40,080.
The earnings limit goes away beginning the month that the worker reaches full retirement age.
In any event, benefits that are taken back this way from workers are returned to them later on, because when they reach full retirement age, Social Security recalculates their payments upward.

With the playoffs right around the corner, both Watertown and Albany each received a pitching gem in Tuesdays doubleheader by identical scores.
First, Kevin Klaess shut down the Dutchmen, 4-0, in the first game. Then, Albanys Jose Hernandez blanked the Rams by the same margin, to salvage a split on the day in a Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball League twinbill at the Alex T. Duffy Fairgrounds.
Both winning pitchers pitched well, Watertown coach Paul Alteri said. Kevin did a good job ... and sometimes youve got to tip your cap to the other team their guy (Hernandez) did a good job and threw well.
While Watertown (28-19) had clinched the West Division title two nights ago, the Dutchmen are just battling to make the playoffs.
Albany (25-21), which received a three-run home run from Zach Remillard in the first inning of the nightcap, enters the final day of the regular season tied with Glens Falls for the third and final postseason-berth in the East Division and the two teams will square off in a doubleheader at Glens Falls today.
Absolutely, this was a good bounce-back win for us, Albany coach Nick Davey said. Now going into tomorrow, I think we need a split to get ourselves into the playoffs. Jose pitched his tail off for us tonight and gave everything he had he gave us a great game.
Hernandez allowed only five hits, struck out seven and walked three in a seven-inning, complete-game effort for the Dutchmen in the second game.
We got a good couple pitching outings from both of our pitchers, said Rams third baseman J.J. Wagner, who reached base five times on the night, including a pair of singles. In the first game, we were really able to get some good at-bats and put up some runs. But in the second, we were a little stymied at the plate.
In the opener, Klaess pitched six-plus innings of shutout ball, striking out three and walking three. Matt Hennie struck out both batters he faced in the seventh to preserve the shutout.
Kevin threw well and that was his last start of the year, Alteri said of Klaess (5-2), who tied Joe Adel for the team lead in wins and will return home to California later this week. Hes got to go home early and wont be with us for the playoffs. So I was hoping that tonight was his night and sure enough he came through and he threw a real nice game.
Watertown scored four runs, three of then unearned, in the first three innings of the opener to provide Klaess with enough run support.
The Rams plated a run in the first after Riley Smith was hit by a pitch and Trevor Marino singled to left field, Smith scored on an error as Wagner lined a ball off the glove of left fielder Bradley Noland.
Bryce Greager singled to left field in the second and one out later, scored on Smiths single to left-center field for a 2-0 Watertown lead.
The Rams scored on a pair of unearned runs in the third as Wagner was hit by a pitch and scored when third baseman Remillard threw the ball past first base on Collin Therouxs ground ball. Theroux, who took third base on the overthrow, came home on Brad Rushs fly out to center field and Watertown led 4-0.
Theyre a real good team, Davey said of Watertown. Hopefully, well see them in the playoffs they can really hit.
Klaess was aided by an unconventional double play in the third. Remillard fouled out to Theroux and the catcher fired to first base to pick off runner Chris Suseck.
In the second game, Albany jumped on Rams starter Daniel Reitzler in the first inning as Anthony Marks reached on an infield single, Matthew Dacey walked and Remillard, who also tripled and doubled, connected on a three-run shot over the left field wall.
Zach had an unbelievable night tonight, Davey said. We came up with some clutch and timely hits and we pitched our butts off.
The Dutchmen added a run in the sixth when Teddy Cillis walked and scored on a bases-loaded walk by Marks.
Watertown, which left the bases loaded in the second inning and two more in the third, stranded eight runners and managed to reach base just four times in the final four innings.
Im kind of disappointed because obviously we wanted the sweep, Alteri said. We took the first one and were hoping to get the second one, especially in front of a big crowd like that. But they really shut us down in the second game.
The Rams conclude their regular season by playing Utica at 7 tonight at the Fairgrounds.
Watertown will host either Elmira or Newark in the first game of a best-of-three divisional series at 7 p.m. on Friday.
nNOTES: Rams center fielder Joe Moroney came into the day leading the league in runs scored (40). ... Watertown has split three doubleheaders this season, while sweeping the other three. ... Albany won the season series, 3-1. ... At 15-7, Watertown still has the top home record in the circuit. ... The Dutchmen are 11-11 on the road.

Why first Graders and Pom-pom's don't mix.
Tuesday, December 15, 2009
I am beginning to wonder if the majority of all children should be riding the short bus.
I was in the school office last week, when a teacher brought in a hysterical 1st grader. Hysterical is actually an understatement. While the teacher was frantically calling the little girls mother, the rest of the staff was trying to figure out why she was in hysterics.
Then the office staff went into hysterics. All I caught was nose and pom-pom.
The lights then went off and I heard some major ding ding ding-ing.
I knew how to fix this problem.
I clapped my hands like the professional that I am and exclaimed "Never fear! Motherboard is here!"
I called for the industrial strength vacuum STAT. But visions of law suits began dancing in my head. Then I actually thought for one teeny-tiny second about having the little girl plug her nose while I breathed the breath of nose freedom into her mouth. But then the law suit vision happened again.
The child was hysterically sobbing and with every giant breath she took, that little pom-pom got sucked further and further up into her noggin.
I went to the little girl and told her all about Moxie and how just the day before she had put a purple crayon up her nose. I even told her how I tried to use the vacuum to suck the crayon out. Her eyes got as big as saucers, Then I told her she needed to stop crying that instant because every time she breathed in, that pesky pom-pom was getting ever closer to her brain.
Yes, I know. Not a good idea to tell a first grader that the pom-pom she stuffed up her nose is traveling to her brain.
But, you know what? She instantly stopped the howling and looked me in the eye as if I were the mighty Jedi Master and she was my trusty Padawan.
I remembered Google telling us that the second step to dislodging the crayon (or pom-pom) is to blow. So, I handed this girl a Kleenex and told her to start blowing like she wanted her brain to come right out nose. We blew and blew and blew some more.
No pom-pom.
I used my trusty handy-dandy pocket flashlight to see where that pom-pom was, and it was Right. There. But, when I used the tweezers (which was the first step), that pom-pom would pull a disappearing act. Birthing that pom-pom was proving to be more difficult that the great crayon debacle.
She started blowing like an elephant, when we suddenly heard a pop.
I was worried I was going to see her eyeballs. Or worse her brains.
Instead I saw that nasty, pesky orange pom-pom.
I gave her a big hug and told her this time she was lucky. The next time she put anything in her nose, it just might go all the way to her brain. So she needed to keep everything out of her nose. Including her finger.
Can you say Therapy?
This is why getting your own personal testimony of Google is essential. You never know when you'll have to get a pom-pom out of a First Graders nose.

PAWTUCKET -- Ryan Kalish's all-out style resulted in the outfielder leaving Thursday's game with an apparent elbow injury. Playing center field, Kalish dove to take a base hit away from Syracuse's Michael Aubrey in the top of the second inning. The injury seemed to occur when Kalish's right elbow hit the turf just as he made the catch.
Kalish stayed on the ground for several seconds as every PawSox player ran out to the outfield to see what the extent of the injury was. He walked off the field under the assistance of PawSox trainer Jon Jochim, holding his elbow.
We'll have more after the game.

Anything that relies solely on how active someone is here or whether or not they are a forum member means that we ignore the rest of our brethren-in-sauce.

David Cox
Portrait of David Cox
David Cox was born in Deritend, Birmingham, in 1783. As he showed an early gift for drawing he was given lessons by Joseph Barber, and then apprenticed to the miniature painter Fielder. After Fielder died he was offered work at the Birmingham Theatre Royal in New Street as a scene-painter. MacReady was then the manager. Cox also toured with the company to other towns, and even did some acting. Eventually as he wished to advance his career as a landscape-painter he resigned. In 1804 he met the proprietor of Astley's Circus who offered him employment in Lambeth, so he left for London. There he sold sketches to dealers, and painted scenery for provincial theatres. He married Mary Ragg in 1808.

David and Mary had one child, David. In 1814 the family moved to Hereford, where they stayed until 1827. David Cox taught art at the Ladies' School, and at Hereford Grammar School. He visited London regularly, and would pass through Birmingham on his journey. During these years some of his work was published: A Treatise on Landscape Painting and Effect in Water Colours in 1814; Views of the City of Bath in 1817, and the Young Artist's Companion, or Drawing Book of Studies and Landscape Embellishments published in 1825. In 1827 the family moved back to London, to live on Kennington Common.
Cottage near Birmingham
David Cox's art is also to be found in histories and guides. He supplied drawings that were converted into etchings, appearing as illustrations in various books. Radclyffe worked on engravings for an account of Warwickshire published in 1829; David Cox supplied some of the drawings on which these were based. One he described in a letter to Radclyffe in 1827 as "High Street, Birmingham ". This looks down the street at the market, Nelson's statue, the Bull Ring and St. Martin's church beyond. Other pictures of the Birmingham area had appeared in The Young Artist's Companion. This illustration dated 1824 is the second of three set in different locations illustrating Cox's ideas about the quality of light; Morning, Midday and Twilight.

Cox later sent drawings to Radclyffe to serve as models for engravings for Roscoe's Wandering in North Wales. The family stayed in London until 1841, when Cox decided that he would like to move back to Birmingham. He had many friends there interested in art. They helped him find Greenfield House, in Greenfield Lane, Harborne. He continued to visit other parts of the country to draw and to paint oil and watercolours, Wales, Derbyshire and Yorkshire; and continued to go to London for exhibitions. As his work became more famous he received more money for his art, but stayed at Greenfield House living as he had always done. His wife died in 1845, one biographer has suggested that Cox worked even harder at his art afterwards as he thought that 'occupation would be the best restorative'.
David Cox died in June 1859. He was buried in Harborne churchyard with his wife. His friends paid for a commemorative stained glass window to be created and put up in Harborne Church by Hardman and Co. In the Birmingham Daily Post it was written that this showed: 'the strong love of nature, the looking through nature up to nature's God...' as David Cox had done through his art during his life.

By MICHAEL OVERSONSun Advocate reporter
Helper City's infrastructure needs to be modernized, according to Mayor Dean Armstrong. In 2002, a study was undertaken to determine the condition of the city. New curbing and gutters as well as water lines, electrical lines, and repaving of streets are needed. Several roads in Helper could be improved if the road base was scraped off and the road was laid fresh instead of continuing to lay on top of existing pavement. Long- term plans are needed to update city utilities and other services. according to to Armstrong. As mayor he wants to get the ball rolling, so these upgrades can take place in the near future. Plans are needed before Helper will be able to apply for grants and other available monetary aid.
Planning costs will be close to $100,000. Mapping is a significant cost, but there are recent RUS 1-meter scale mapping for FEMA that are already completed. Armstrong said, in relation to this topic, "If you're not moving forward, you are falling behind."
Salinity control in the river and dust, like the issues in Nine Mile Canyon, are also problems the city currently faces. The council must originate plans for integrated waste water, roads, curbs and gutter. A previous power plan to upgrade the electrical infrastructure was created, but Armstrong hasn't seen it. He noted that land use ordinances took four years to complete, but he doesn't know if these problems can continue to remain unaddressed for that long.
Armstrong noted that green space maintenance is important, because that is what the public sees on a daily basis. Armstrong wants to create one position to manage the green spaces, and another position to focus on the problem. He believes that establishing two positions would yield better results than if separate parties tried to coordinate their efforts.
Councilman Brandon Wise was chosen to head recreation and community events. He suggested that results might be better if two people were to work together on these events, citing the probability that two minds can come up with better ideas and bounce ideas off each other. Councilman Robert Bradley volunteered to help in these responsibilities with Wise.
Armstrong brought up a point about existing committees. He noted that some members have been serving on these boards for a long time. He is not dissatisfied with the current service being provided, but pointed out that rejuvenating interest is vital to the committees' continuing success and that adding new people to the committees would add new interest and ideas.
There have been talks of consolidating little league into a Carbon County recreation board. Every board member expressed dissatisfaction with that proposal and noted that Helper needs to stay vigilant so the games continue to be held in Helper. Councilman Wise was appointed to help with this issue.
ECDC, which Helper contracts with to provide waste disposal services, is going to raise rates of residential customers. Last year, the rates decreased because of the amount of garbage collected in 2008. In 2009, tonnage collected dropped below the price reduction point, so rates are going to increase from 8.65 to 9.00. Tom Paluso informed the council about this and noted that because city has a contract, no action can be taken, although the contract states that if the tonnage rises, the rates will again decrease. The rates float, so every year the rates may vary. Collection went from 400,000 tons in 2008 to 180,000 tons in 2009.
The council also discussed the curbing issue the city faces. Several streets don't have sidewalks or curbing and existing sidewalks need to be fixed or replaced. The policy currently mentions replacing and repairing, but Armstrong wants to include new construction. Work will be done on a first come, first served basis. Residents will be required to obtain two bids. The contractors will work for residents, but the city will reimburse the costs. Residents won't be allowed to complete the work themselves, because it might return to being a city responsibility if their sidewalk cracks, etc.
Sen. Bob Bennett invited Helper to attend the rural business conference. The council agrees on the fact that Helper needs to get its name out there. They mentioned that Helper is a good place for starter families, has good highway access, is business- friendly, and offers good schools. In considering materials to use at the conference, they mentioned that resources at the museum could make an interesting display. At the two-day conference, Helper needs to present a united front. Carbon County could benefit from the added exposure and various cities around here are already planning on attending and sponsoring booths.
The issue of rights of ways again arose. om Boyack, a local land owner, and the city are trying to figure out a deal that would allow Helper to use his land for water lines.
Don Jackson filed a lawsuit against Helper City in regards to the water issue that both parties are having. The council pointed out that the agreement is outdated and needs to be updated. The lawsuit will force both parties to come to the table, per se, to figure out which actions will benefit both parties the most. Currently, there are questions as to regulations set forth by the federal and state governments which cover the issue of ground and surface water. The city provides water to sheep-watering troughs owned and operated by Jackson. The council is determining the best way to provide water to these. There is currently a spring which will gravity feed the troughs, if a cistern is put in place to gather water. The city hired an outside attorney to deal with this litigation. Ironing out the creases in the contract was the main point of conversation.
Emery Telcom was also on the agenda in regard to their franchise rights. They plan on instituting IPTV, a digital television company to rival Dish network and Direct TV. Armstrong posed the question as to whether there is a downside to granting the franchise agreement. Competition is healthy for business, he stated. Emery Telcom is also trying to lease space on city cell towers for their new cell phone service plans.
Key Bank has been renting property adjoining their parcel. Their rental agreement expired last year. The city wants to either raise rates on the property or sell it. Key Bank has been reluctant to accept the offers and discussion is taking place.
The council also addressed training that is needed for various government positions, including fire and police personnel. The city wants to have everyone be able to become up to date on required training and also anything that may interest them. Armstrong also wants Helper police to reengage activity with Carbon metro drug task force in an effort to curtail the city's drug problem.
It was pointed out by a resident that there are rural development grants that are not required to be shovel-ready. $36,000 is available, but Helper would qualify for $30,000 for infrastructure development, which would greatly help Helper in their effort to modernize their utilities.
Armstrong selected council member Kirk Mascaro as mayor pro tempore.

Jean-Paul Sartre
Agence France-Presse
The existentialist philosophy of Jean-Paul Sartre influenced two generations of writers and thinkers throughout the world.
Long regarded as one of France's reigning intellectuals, Mr. Sartre contributed profoundly to the social consciousness of the post-World War II generation through his leftward political commitments, which took him away from his desk and onto the streets. He had ideas on virtually every subject developed them in novels, plays, biographies, essays and tracts.
Highlights from the Archives
Beauvoir And Sartre, And a Book in Dispute
The friends and lovers of Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre have battled for decades over their legacy. Now, the feud has flared up once again, forcing HarperCollins to take the unusual step of publishing two editions of a new account of their relationship because of objections from Sartre's adopted daughter.September 29, 2005 artsNews
To Honor Sartre, France Buffs A Pedestal the Writer Rejected
A century after his birth, 25 years after his death, Jean-Paul Sartre has not been forgotten, but he is also not remembered altogether fondly. For many American conservatives suspicious of French thinkers, he still typifies the Left Bank intellectual spouting obscure philosophy amid clouds of smoke. Even for many French people, his embrace of Communist causes placed him on the wrong side of history.March 16, 2005 artsNews
Further Revisionism On Sartre and Beauvoir
The body of existing literature about the lives of Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir is already voluminous. There are the writers' own copious memoirs, novels, letters and diaries, of course, as well as an outpouring of recent biographies. As more and more information has become available, the myth surrounding the couple's relationship has undergone a process of revision, even as the autobiographical sources of their work has become increasingly clear.January 14, 1994 artsReview
A New Sartre Biography

Superstar of the Mind
Like Voltaire in the 18th century and Victor Hugo in the 19th, Jean-Paul Sartre dominated the intellectual life of 20th-century France to an extraordinary degree. His immense production, his diversity and his enthusiasm call to mind the figures of the Renaissance; his fervent wish to be an uncompromising witness to his time links him with the great political and social thinkers of the Enlightenment.June 7, 1987 artsReview
M. Sartre Goes to Hollywood
Jean-Paul Sartre liked going to the movies because it was an unstuffy, proletarian thing to do, but when it came to writing for the movies he showed himself as intellectually lordly as ever and produced a scenario that was quite brilliantly unmakable.October 12, 1986 artsReview

I listened to that episode and thought I'd pick up that book. That's a great podcast, the interviews are always interesting. I've been trying to listen to all their old ones for over a month now.

As if "Center for Inquiry", one of the largest atheistic apologetics organizations, can be trusted to deliver solid reviews.
Harrison did not give a single logically sound argument for the view that there is no good reason to be a theist. His book is just more commercialized American atheism delivered for the unreflective and the gullible.

Hi Chuck,
I don't endorse the book, I haven't read it and rarely read atheist literature, but when he says that the reason most people give for believing in a god is because "its obvious to them" I agree with that.
why do you believe in a god?
once we get past the "its obvious" from the Hindu, the jew, the christian and the muslim, and the other less popular religions then we are left with
"which god is obvious?".
Thats really where it all comes unglued isn't it? if you only consider your little community, you can get away with it, but when you consider what is going on in the whole world, now you have to come up with something distinctive to define which is the true religion, and the true gods.
good luck with that.

Hey Lee,
Too true and good words. I would like to read the book.
By the way I have answered your objection on my blog referring to Lord Rama and his Monkeys. Here is the address again christianityversusatheism.blogspot.com
Let me know what you think.
Regards, Phil.
- August 9, 2008 at 2:32 PM
- Lee Randolph said...
Hi Phil,
I went to your other blog and scanned through your response. All I can say is that I don't have have time to maintain dialogue in two places, so i'm going to stay over here.
the second is that the key element is a belief in something patently absurd, getting defended by historians and believed by hindus.
Do you believe Rama had an army of monkeys? I doubt it. Do hindus believe that there is only one god and he came down and inhabited his son and made the universe safe for humanity in a human sacrifice/suicide? no they don't.
You both use the same reasoning schemes as insulation from each other and us.
and the thing about Rama not being in the Vedas, maybe you're right. My learning doesn't go so deep as to have copies for reference, only lectures in courses, but the fact remains that the Hidus have more scripture than just the Vedas, you know that but you are using this technicality to try to poison the well to discredit me on your site. Thats fine, not very "righteous" but whatever the spirit leads you to do i suppose you'll do it.
If I have to devote a lot of resources defending my position, I'm going to do it over here.
But if your followers see me over there, think that I am a push-over, and want to chew on some atheist Arse, then I'll welcome them with open arms. Send 'em our way. Consider this an invitation to your congregation.
In fact, I wish more preachers would come here carrying the banner, leading their congregation. I think that they are not living up to their "Great Commission" if they don't.

Hi phil,
speaking of patently absurd,
why don't you go refute my other article "Jesus was human sacrifice"?
Harvey's over there. He's a preacher too.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
It's hard to imagine modern coal mining, or mining of any kind, without the technology that exists today. For coal mining, without long walls and continuous miners, men would still be picking at the walls of mines with shovels and picks, loading the coal by hand and carting it out with either small vehicles or by horse.
It was a different world before the advent of modern technology. But an even earlier invention has had another great effect on mining. That was the creation of the conveyor belt system.
The idea for it started in the 19th century and by the early 1890s an inventor named Thomas Robins had developed a series of devices that could be used for carrying large heavy amounts of ore, coal or just about anything that would fit on the belt that was used to move material. By 1905, Richard Sutcliffe had devised a system of conveyors for coal mines, which almost turned the industry on its head as these movers of vast material were installed. Since then, in almost every decade, advances have been made in belt construction technology and other parts of the conveyor systems.
One of the leaders in the field of conveyor technology and systems is Fenner Dunlop. Fenner was founded before much of he modern ideas about conveyor systems came onto the scene in 1861. They produced leather belting at the time. In 1921 the company diversified into textile belting and subsequently into polymer belting. In 2006 the Fenner Dunlop initiated a major expansion. And it was in 2008 the company acquired Conveyor Services. Up until that time they were one of the leaders in belt manufacturing; after that they also became a leader in full service conveyor equipment with the ability to not only supply and maintain belting, but provide idlers (the devices the belt rides on) and structures (the towers and base units that the idlers are attached to).
About that same time they also acquired Allison Custom Fabrication which gave the company the ability to also supply the drive systems for mining conveyors. Overall the system is called now Engineered Conveyor Systems.
The company has branches all over the world, with corporate offices in Pittsburgh, Pa. Presently they sell about 70 percent of their systems to mining operations, 25 percent to power generation facilities and about five percent to agriculture, manufacturing, etc.
Today, in the local area, Fenner Dunlop's facility on Airport Road services the Castle Valley for sales, installation and maintenance of conveyor systems. While concentrating in the local area on coal the company builds conveyors for any type of service from farming to coal mines. They work in conjunction with other Fenner Dunlop facilities in Delta and Denver, Colo., Farmington, N.M. and Gillette, Wyo. These outlets work together to supply manpower for large projects in each others areas and to help with emergency work on systems that need it. The day the Sun Advocate visited the local facility a number of the men at the location and working on a project were from out of state.
The local presence includes six field service workers, one sales representative, one administrative assistant, one office manager and the general manager.
At the heart of any conveyor system is the belt itself. The modern technology of having belts that will handle the weight and strain of heavy high speed operations is almost unbelievable. One just has to think of the size and the pressures that are exerted on belts carrying ore or coal.
"The correct belting for the application it is going to be used for is very important," said Bruce Sherman, the Price operations General Manager about conveyor systems that his company manufactures, installs and maintains.
Sherman knows his business. He has been with the company for seven years (at first with Conveyor Services) and worked for Arch Coal for 11 years.
Belts were just once made of basic rubber with some cloth thrown in. Those were adequate, but they stretched, became brittle and broke. Todays technology is very different, and it needs to be considering the use that these system gets in these days of ultimate automation.
Sherman says the life of a belt is determined by a number of factors including the amount of material that is conveyed on them, the weather they are exposed to, what the cover of the belt consists of and its thickness, and what materialo are moved on it. The speed the belt line is operated at can also be a factor. Most run at 600-1000 feet per minute.
Belts are built of two different kinds of materials today. There are steel cord belts and polyester nylon fabric belts.
As could be imagined, to carry thousands of pounds of materials, belts themselves are heavy and weigh a lot. For instance a 42 inch belt that is a 9/16 inch steel cord belt weighs 221 pounds a linear foot. The belting would come in 2200 foot rolls that weigh 45,000 pounds each.
It is a huge undertaking to put a large conveyor in or even to just replace the belt. And putting together belts is an art in itself.
The workers in the shop the day the Sun Advocate was there included Tony Martinez, Daris Lambson, and Buzz Rondinelli. They explained that the belts can be spliced in two ways: with a mechanical splice or using what is called "cooking the belt."
Cooking the belt requires a number of layers applied to a "finger splice" (put your fingers together like you are praying and you will get the idea) and then it is cooked at high temperature with vices holding it together. It is a particular and long process so that the belts hold up for warranty and safety purposes. Belts are built in layers, much like a layer cake. The number of layers used depends on the thickness desired.
At the time of the Sun Advocates visit the company was putting in a new belt at the Deer Creek Mine in Huntington Canyon. Some of the affiliate facilities had sent people to help on the project. That project is now finished.

The speed the belt line is operated at can also be a factor. Most run at 600-1000 feet per minute.
When asked how long the belts last, Rondinelli, who has worked for the company for five years, said he has worked on belts that were 35 years old and still running.
At the time of the Sun Advocate's visit the company was putting in a new belt at the Deer Creek Mine in Huntington Canyon. Some of the affiliate facilities had sent people to help on the project. That project is now finished.
Importantly, the staff at Fenner Dunlop in Price is friendly and expressed great satisfaction for the jobs they do. Jennifer Crisp, the office manager said that she enjoyed working with the crew and the customers that they serve. All the workers talked about the camaraderie of the crews, both from in and out of state. They all said that employee safety was a major concern of the company.
Conveyor systems are a major player in moving coal inside the mines and outside to loading facilities. Without them the large production of mines today could not be sent to market in adequate amounts.
They are 150 year inventions that continue to be reinvented over and over again.

Once again we approach election time. We will be selecting a president and persons to represent our state in congress.
As usual it comes down to a contest between the Republicans and Democrats. The Republicans and Democrats, the "republicrats" have controlled the federal government for at least a century. Regardless of the rhetoric that flows freely at election time and regardless of which variety of republicrat finally gains control of the White House and the legislature, there is one thing we can always count on: Increasing centralized federal power and the eroding of state and local jurisdiction. We can count on continued insane deficit spending and ever more of our living being be consumed to fuel this monstrous federal leviathan.
Someone has likened them to salsa. You can get hot salsa or you can get it in the mild variety but it is still salsa. Actions speak louder than words and we can readily observe that the only real difference between the two varieties of republicrat is how aggressively they move us toward big central government. The Obama administration has burdened us with his health care monstrosity, for example. The Bush administration before him came up with "No child left behind", an outrageous federal usurpation of state and local control of our public schools.
The problem is that the republicrats refuse to abide by the rules. In their hands, the rule book, our divinely inspired constitution, has been effectively ripped to shreds. Practically everything that comes out of Washington D.C. nowadays is unconstitutional. Certainly there are individuals amongst the republicrats who are true constitutionalists, but the overall momentum is toward a centralized, socialistic all-powerful state.
It has also been said that one sign of insanity is to keep doing the same thing and expect a different outcome. We become fed up with the current party in control and so at election time we determine to "throw the rascals out". But who do we replace them with? We replace them with the same party we threw out a few years previously because we were sick of them too. At close range we think we making a change, but stepping back and looking at the bigger picture we find that we are just doing the same old thing that has been going on for a lifetime. We are not really doing anything different.
If we are going break out of this destructive cycle we have got to look outside the Republican and Democratic parties. There are good solid alternatives out there. There is the Constitution party and as their name implies, their platform is sticking to the principles in the Constitution and The Declaration of Independence. Look at their platform and judge for yourself. I read through it and it is like a breath of fresh air. It is not liberal, it is not conservative, it is constitutional.
Take a moment to look at the Libertarian presidential candidate, Gary Johnson. He is a strong advocate of getting government out of our face and out of our pocketbook.
When asked who I'm voting for and I tell them the non-republicrat alternative I have chosen, I might get a response like: "Oh - so you are throwing away your vote". I'm not throwing away my vote; I'm voting for the candidate who I believe would best uphold our constitution, the rights and freedoms flowing from it. Is it not the persons who election after election vote the lesser of two evils who are throwing away their vote?
If we would all look at all the candidates and vote for the ones we each think are best, if we were to stop trying use our vote in a strategy to keep someone out of office, perhaps we could break the grip of the republicrats.

CANTON The Norfolk woman accused of scamming a priest and members of his parish out of more than $300,000 had her bail reduced Wednesday by a St. Lawrence County judge, but her attorney said she likely will remain jailed while awaiting trial.
Judge Jerome J. Richards reduced the bail of Bobbie Jo Zeller, 37, of 72 W. Main St., by half to $150,000 cash or $300,000 bond.
I asked the judge to consider probationary release because shes indigent, attorney Brian D. Pilatzke said. To her, there is no difference between $150,000 or $300,000. She cant make either amount.
Ms. Zeller has been held in St. Lawrence County jail since May 2. She is charged with two counts of second-degree grand larceny, two counts of third-degree grand larceny and one count of first-degree scheme to defraud.
Three related charges were dismissed in September.

WEST CARTHAGE The village Board of Trustees left open the public hearing about a moratorium on the construction of fixed-base or ground-based antennas Monday night.
Board members wanted time to obtain a better definition of fixed-base and home-based antennas. They will resume the hearing during the July 15 meeting.
Mayor Scott M. Burto said the moratoriums intent was to allow time to regulate the towers because of ham radios popularity. A 180-day moratorium would allow the board to research existing regulations and gain public input.

Scott Brown's Twitter trouble
Most politicians delegate their Twitter account to platitude-producing staffers, all of whom excel in a genre of writing I think of as Bland Earnestness. Iâm looking at you @MarkeyMemo, @JohnBoehner and @DevalPatrick.
After U.S. Sen. Scott Brown lost his bid for re-election in November, it became apparent platitude-producing staffers were no longer writing @ScottBrownMA â Brown himself had his thumbs on the keyboard.
He had a lot more free time, after all, and he tweeted about spending a weekend morning âcleaning the garage. Ugh.â He tweeted âGo Pats!!!â and âGo Celts!!!!â He tweeted about doing book signings with his tag-along little brother, Howie Carr.
As an Associated Press story in The Boston Herald reported Saturday morning, âIn recent posts on Twitter and Facebook, Brown has given updates on his meals and workouts, cheered on the New England Patriots and the Boston Bruins, plugged his book signings and offered snapshots of his post-Senate home life with his wife, Gail Huff.â
Brown seemed to be having fun with Twitter, but early Saturday morning he broke one of the most important unwritten rules of social media: Never respond to a troll. On the Internet, a troll is someone who posts a message just to insult you. Trolls haunt Twitter.
On Friday morning, Brown tweeted that he was looking forward to seeing his daughter Ayla perform at Pejamajo Café in Holliston. At 6 p.m. Friday evening, Brown tweeted three words: âYes. Get ready.â Was he responding to a question? Was the question âAre you running for Senate?â
Was the question âAre you swinging by to pick me up so we can go see Ayla sing at the Pejamajo Café?â
Ten minutes later @MattinSomerville trolled Brown with this response: âOh we are. You have no idea how ready #MaPoli is to vote to keep you in the private sector & out of #MASenâ
Brown didnât respond until after midnight, with three tweets in quick succession:
Your brilliant Matt
Uh-oh, senator. Within a few hours, âBqhatevwrâ was one of the top ten topics on Twitter worldwide.
Brown deleted the tweets. Too late.
Oddly, Brown, through no doing of his own, had been pushed back into the news that morning. The Boston Globe led the paper with a story headlined âScott Brown still silent on Senate campaignâ and the Herald featured the AP's "Online, Scott Brown talk sports, avoids politicsâ story.
In other words, this all happened on a day he was back in the media spotlight. Bad timing.
Twitter users knew what to do with the former senatorâs typo: write tens of thousands of not-actually-funny humorous tweets and include the hashtag #Bqhatevwr.
Political partisans on Twitter knew what to do: either mock the senator as a dope or defend the senator as regular guy. @JoeBattenfeld of the Herald offered this explanation in a tweet: âMy theory on @ScottBrownMA mysterious âbqhatevwrâ tweet: His dog or cat stepped on the keyboard and accidentally hit send. Happened to me.â
The major media did not know what to do with this story. Was it even a story? Editors decided the store was the Twittersphere reaction to âBqhatevwrâ rather than the tweet itself.
The Huffington Post ran a story calling Brownâs late-night tweets âinscrutableâ and saying they âraised eyebrows.â Boston.com published a short blog entry titled âBrownâs strange late-night tweets draw attention.â WBZ put up a post titled â#Bqhatevwr: Scott Browns Account Sends Twitter Into A Frenzy.â On Sunday, the Herald ran a brief story headlined âScott Brownâs Twitter troubles light up Web with jokes.â
There is one unanswered question I want to see political reporters ask Brown: âGeez, Scott, doesnât your phone have AutoCorrect?â
