You will need to have the following information to
If the calculator won't let you answer a question, it may be
because of a previous answer you have already given. You can go
back and change your previous answers if you need to.
Please note: On 1 April 2013 the Government
introduced size limit rules into housing benefit for
working age people renting from a local authority,
a registered provider of social housing, a registered housing
association or other registered social landlord.
The new rules restrict the size of accommodation you can receive
housing benefit for based on the number of people in your
household. Find out more about this
If you live in privately rented accommodation, the allowance you
could receive is called Local Housing Allowance
(LHA) and the rates are set separately. LHA is based on
how many bedrooms your household needs.
View the LHA rates for
the Northumberland area (1 April 2015 - 31 March 2016) here or
you can have a look at them in any of our Customer Information Centres.
More information on LHA is available
You can apply for housing benefit in the following ways:
Please note: you will need to provide original
documentary evidence to support your claim for benefit – we cannot
accept photocopies and we need to see documents for both the
claimant and their partner.
A visiting officer may be able to visit you in your home if you
require assistance with your form – contact us to make an
appointment. You can also visit a benefit officer in your local
If you qualify for housing benefit or council tax support (or
both), we will normally pay your benefit on the Monday after you
asked us for an application form (as long as you return the
application form within one calendar month of contacting us).
Sometimes we can pay benefit for a period before the date you
claimed. This is called backdating.
If there has been a reason which has prevented you from applying
for housing benefit sooner, you can ask for your claim to be
backdated so that it starts from an earlier date.
The law says we can backdate your benefit for up to 6 months.
However, you must have a good reason why your claim is late. This
is known as 'good cause'.
Good cause is a reason that prevented you from claiming benefit
earlier and we will look at each case individually.
Good causes may include the following, depending on the

list of all possible reasons. If you forgot to claim, or did not
know you could claim, this would not be a good reason on its

should tell us straightaway.
If you would like some help, please phone 0345 600
6400 or use one of
our local numbers or visit any of our Customer
Information Centres.
We will decide if we can backdate your benefit based on the
information you give us. We will write to you and tell you our
decision. If we decide not to backdate your benefit, we will tell
you why.
We may decide that your reasons are not good enough for us to
backdate your benefit. If you do not agree with our decision, you
should contact us and ask us to look at the decision again. You
must do this within one month of the decision letter.
You can also ask for a written statement of our reasons for our
decision which will give you more information. If you are still not
satisfied, you can appeal to us in writing.
Please also have a look at our Backdating
FAQ Leaflet
When you apply for housing benefit, we will give you a decision
in writing about your claim. If you disagree with our decision, you
can ask us to look at it again.
There are different ways in which you can appeal.
This means that only the claimant can ask us to revise a
decision concerning the calculation of a claimant's entitlement;
and that the landlord or agent can only ask us to revise a decision
about whether payment should be made to a landlord and whether the
decision to recover an overpayment from a landlord or agent has
been correctly made.
Please also have a look at our Appeals FAQ
A person affected can ask us to provide a written Statement of
Reason which will explain how we reached our decision. This should
be requested within 1 month of the date of the decision notice. The
Statement of Reasons does not affect your right of an appeal.
We aim to provide a statement within 14 days so far as this is
practicable. The time taken for us to provide the statement may
extend the time limit for requesting a revision or seeking an
appeal to the Tribunal.
A request for a revision or reconsideration means that we will
look again at the decision regarding a claim for benefit and make
sure that it has been done correctly. Requests for revision are to
be made either in writing or by completing a Revision
Request form, and must be made within one month of the decision
The decision will be checked by a different officer to the one
who made the original decision, to see if it is correct. After
reconsidering our decision, we will write to the person affected
stating that the decision has been changed or that it will stay the
same. We may request further information from the person affected
before we make a final decision. The person must provide the
information within one month of the request. We will aim to reply
to all requests for a revision within 14 days so far as this is
If you still do not agree with our decision, a person affected
by a decision may be able to appeal to Her Majesty's Courts and
Tribunals Service, who are independent of the council and The
Department for Work and Pensions where a judge will look at your
case and make a decision on it.
The request must be made in writing to us at the Benefit
Section, Northumberland County Council, Wansbeck Square, Ashington,
NE63 9XL and must be received by us within one month of the date on
the decision notification letter.
Her Majesty's Courts and Tribunals Service will write to the
person to tell them of the date, time and place of their hearing.
They will also be asked if they want to attend or whether they
would prefer the Tribunal to consider their case without them being
present, this is called a 'paper hearing'.
If the council or the person affected feels that the decision of
HMCTS is wrong in law they can seek leave to appeal to the Upper
The amount of benefit payable is a matter between the council
and the claimant. Only the tenant can ask the council to review the
amount of Benefit payable. If the council reduces a tenant's
benefit to recover an overpayment in respect of a previous address,
the current landlord cannot appeal against the decision to recover
that overpayment.
Local Housing Allowance (LHA) is used to work out claims for
housing benefits for tenants renting accommodation from a private
landlord. Find out more here.
It is very important that you tell us about any changes in your,
or any member of your households, circumstances within one month of
the change. If you don't, you could lose money you are entitled to.
More information is available here.
People who deliberately claim benefits when they are not
entitled to it are committing a criminal offence. If a landlord,
who is paid housing benefit directly on behalf of their tenant,
fails to notify the council that their tenant has left the property
then they may be committing benefit fraud.
More information on benefit
fraud is available here.

Slavek is an elderly caretaker of a public lavatory and is proud of his job. He becomes anxious to see more and more automatic toilets set in the town. Then a change happens. He falls in love with a woman toilet caretaker who is working on the other side of the street. A love story that takes place in a public toilet.
Grimur Hakonarson ('77) studied at FAMU - Film Academy in Prague.
His graduate film at FAMU, "Slavek the Shit", was selected to the Cinefondation section of Cannes Film Festival 2005. Grimur made many short films and documentaries in Iceland before he attended film school. Some of them have won prizes in festivals and been broadcast on television.

This is a great example for good casting to be the base of verisimilitude of a good film. The setting of the movie was very interesting, and I loved the piece because of Slavek and his madonna, very lovable characters.

Brought this before baby was born and have really enjoyed using it - nice and flat and looks really stylish. Only downside is it is a lot slimmer than other carrycots out there and as such my baby didn't get as much use from it as I would've liked. My baby is 3 months old and have had to stop using it. Apart from that great accessory to have!
Can this be compatable with S4 second seat?

Hi, I ordered S4 stroller via Costco and was wondering if I order a carrycot, can I use a 2nd seat with it? What adapter do I also need to purchase to go with it? Thank you!

I think this is the best product we have bought so far and has really encouraged good sleeping habits for our baby! I can't recommend it enough! Baby seemed to have a really good sleep when out walking as can lie nice and flat and not have to be all buckled in and is all snug and protected from the elements, also love being able to see baby face to face. We also have the stand for this so to unclip from pram to stand was awesome not having to wake baby. This was our main bassinet so very portable to move around the house with stand and the carry handles, lounge during the day and carry through to bed at night. Love love this product, was gutted when baby outgrew it and moved to the cot!
Love it

Campaign and MALESURVIVOR.ORG 'DARE TO DREAM EVENT 2′
Penn State –Penn State will host two screenings of Boys and Men Healing, a

abuse and the importance of healing, speaking out, and advocating for ending the cycle of
the sexual abuse of boys. This event is hosted by Penn State University.
The film screenings and Q&A following will be held at Altoona Campus at 7:00 p.m. on

The second screening will be held at Penn State – University Park on Wed April 4th from 7-

Boys and Men Healing is a film from director and producer Kathy Barbini, and co-producer
Simon Weinberg of Big Voice Pictures. Boys and Men Healing digs deep into the impact of
male child sexual abuse on both the individual and society, and highlights the importance of
male survivors healing and speaking out for the well being of our families, and
communities. Featuring non-offending men, this film shows the profound effects of
boyhood sexual abuse — shame, intimacy problems, sexual identity confusion, post-
traumatic stress, substance abuse or and unresolved rage that led to violence. Despite such
devastating effects, each man ultimately chose the arduous task of healing. Through
counseling, support groups and prevention advocacy, each man is a testimony of hope and
the ability for survivors to thrive.

Car-washing elephants attract visitors to Oregon
WINSTON, Ore. -- It's a car wash like you've never seen before. But it still has all the standard features.
High pressure rinse? Check.
Streak free detail? You got it!
Alice is one of three African elephants at Wildlife Safari that enjoys washing cars. It's one of several new exhibits and attractions that the Wildlife Safari added over the past summer. Despite the economy, the park has seen their sales increase by 28 percent over this time last year.
"I think a great deal of the success that happened at Wildlife Safari this year was attributed to these animals," Executive Director Dan VanSlyke said. "People love to come out and have fun. What's really cool with our elephants is what started this whole thing, and that's that they love to play in water."
Visitors are traveling to the Wildlife Safari in Winston from all over the globe. Tourists from as far as India and London are coming to Oregon to get their cars washed by elephants in an exhibit added over the summer. The wild animal park believes that the difference could be a direct result to Alice and the elephants' car washing procedure.
"They've definitely drawn a lot of people into park," elephant supervisor Carol Matthews said. "In fact that we've had lots of people come back and do it again and again cause they had to bring their friends and families"
While it's hose-free, it's guaranteed not to get your car clean.
But VanSlyke believes that won't be a problem.
"The reason that there's been such a spike this summer during this bad economic time, is people still want to recreate. Still kind of want to get away from problems," Van Slyke said. "But they want it affordable and they want to feel that they're actually investing in something that has a value."
One recommendation: don't bring a convertible.

As Carbon County's planning staff has looked at a proposed local multi-use route for off-highway vehicle, equestrian and pedestrian traffic, one goal has been to connect not only to existing designated trails, but to local municipalities.
"Safety has to be our first concern," said Dave Levanger, county planning director. And as the proposed route connects to cities or towns, finding a safe route from the main trail has been difficult in some cases.
Most notably, connecting to Price and Wellington requires lengthy spurs from the main trail. Defining the spurs has not been an easy task.
While planners think they have a workable route to connect to Price, connecting to Wellington has proved to be much more difficult.
The easier connections occur in communities like Helper, Scofield and Sunnyside, where the route runs right through the heart of the city or town.
The proposed route through the county enters the Castle Valley from the west in Consumers Canyon.
Once the trail hits the Wildcat coal load out, it turns north, running close to the railroad grade until it splits just west of Helper.
Plans drafted by the county's planning staff show that there are two acceptable routes through Helper.
Helper has designated certain locations as approved OHV routes and the county's proposed trail plan uses the routes not only to get through the city, but also to cross a major highway.
One route follows Spring Canyon Road, where a trail for bicyclists and pedestrians already exists. The route continues down Spring Canyon Road and continues on Canyon Street until it hits Hill Street. The other route heads west from the railroad grade to Gun Club Road and runs along Reservoir Street before meeting back with the other route at Hill Street.
At the intersection of Hill Street and Canyon Street, there is a paved grade that runs toward U.S. Highway 6.
Crossing major thoroughfares is one obstacle that planners had to overcome as they planned the proposed route, so the decision of where to cross U.S. 6 became one of the defining factors of the plan for the route.
At the bottom of the paved grade down from Hill Street, trail users will be able to safely cross the highway by using a pedestrian underpass.
Once through the underpass, the route crosses Price River before heading into downtown Helper on Hill Street.
The approved OHV route then runs north along 1st West Street.
At Janet Street, the route heads east to Racey Street and then runs north of the old Kenilworth Railroad grade.
The rails have been removed from the old Denver and Rio Grand Railroad that used to run out to Kenilworth. T
The railroad grade is the first section of the proposed route that is not an existing road. However, it is an existing right of way, and county planners looked at the route as an alternative to using Kenilworth Road. The route follows the railroad grade for 3.6 miles until it reaches Kenilworth Road.
The route then crosses Kenilworth Road just outside of Kenilworth and again hits county roads as it heads out on what many know as the Old Wagon Road. In Kenilworth, this road is Clay Bank Road and runs east from Kenilworth Road for 1.9 miles before hitting Price-Kenilworth Road.
However, as the route heads out into the Castle Valley, trial users will find that the road is criss-crossed with roads associated with gas drilling operations. Defining the route for its users will be an important consideration as the project progresses.
County lands and access coordinator, Rex Sacco, said that signage will be an important part of the trail. At trail heads and along the trail, planners agree that marking the trail with visible signs will help trail users stay on the designated route.
"I want to come up with a logo for this trail," added Levanger. He pointed out that the Piute ATV Trail that runs through portions of Millard, Sevier, Piute and Beaver counties uses a rock-art style figure as a logo. They use it on signs along the route to define the trail as it intersects other trails and roads. In addition, they use it on pamphlets and other information for the trail.
County planning staff envision something similar that is unique to the area and clearly distinguishes the route.
As the trail continues to the east, two routes head south from the Old Wagon Road into Price. One runs south for 4.9 miles on Wood Hill Road and connects to Price north of the College of Eastern Utah. The other runs for 4.4 miles down Price-Kenilworth Road and connects to Price at near Castle Gate Elementary.
Levanger pointed out that as the routes are finalized, he and other planning staff will follow guidelines established by each of the cities. He explained that the routes are nothing more than suggestions at this point with nothing set in stone. So if a city has a problem with the route, the county will work with that city to determine a reasonable route.
That is true for state and federal agencies as well. Levanger explained that he and other staff have discussed the proposed project with BLM officials and state land managers. Lev anger said he has discussed the proposed route with the Bureau of Land Management and the Utah School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration. Those two agencies control most of the land where the route will run, and both seem willing to support the project, said Lev anger.
As the multi-use route proposed by the county continues east, it runs along Kenilworth-Airport Road for 3.5 miles before encountering another thoroughfare, Airport Road.
The route proposed by the county doesn't intersect Airport Road with a simple crossing. Instead, the road from the west hits Airport Road a few hundred feet north of the road where it continues to the east.
That becomes a problem as the standard for OHV trails requires that trail users cross major thoroughfares at right angles. Running along the road for a few hundred feet is not conducive to this requirement.
So county planners have proposed that the county construct a bypass for trail users to cross the road at one point. This requires the construction of a few hundred feet of new trail on the west side of Airport Road.
Another issue to consider is motor vehicle traffic along roads. The proposed route crosses three roads used primarily by coal trucks: Airport Road, Dugout Canyon Road and C Canyon Road. Each of those crossings need to have high visibility in both directions to help avoid a collision between a coal truck and a trail user.
After crossing Airport Road, the proposed route continues east for 4.8 miles through Straight Canyon before crossing Coal Creek Road.
The route continues along the Old Wagon Road from Coal Creek Road on to Soldier Creek Road, some 3.5 miles to the east and then heads out to Nine Mile Canyon Road.
Between Soldier Creek Road and Larks Valley Road, the suggested route will require two areas of construction. One area is between Soldier Creek Road and Dugout Canyon Road, where less than one mile of construction will be required to connect two existing routes.
Part of this section to be constructed would run across private land held by Canyon Fuel. The remainder runs on SITLA land. Negotiations will have to occur between the county and canyon fuel to secure the right of way.
The other area where the county does not have an existing right of way is between Dugout Canyon Road and Larks Valley Road. The two existing routes that need to be connected are just over a mile apart, but they will require close to two miles of constructed route to connect because a large hill sits between the two roads. The proposed construction runs across BLM and SITLA land.
In an effort to facilitate the negotiation required to secure the rights of way in these two areas as well as other areas of the county, the Carbon County Recreation and Transportation Special Service District plans to contract an expert to handle right-of way issues.
Special service district board members have agreed to support the proposed project. In addition to the special service district, the county has discovered that support and funding may be available through SITLA, county restaurant tax, the Utah Permanent Community Impact Board, OHV groups and the private sector.
Connecting to Wellington is another difficulty planners have faced as they outlined the proposed route. Although the roads from the Old Wagon Road connect to Wellington, each route crosses private land on its way south. Securing a right of way on for private sections will be essential if the route is to have spurs connecting to Wellington.
One route to Wellington runs down Coal Creek Road and East Coal Creek Road and hits Highway 6 in East Wellington.
The other route comes down Larks Valley Road for 5.1 miles before it hits Larks Valley-Dugout Road. The route hits Dugout Canyon Road 3.5 miles later. Here, it runs for 2.5 miles along Dugout Canyon Road before taking off on Dugout Creek Road. The route hits Highway 6 east of Cat Canyon.
Lev anger emphasized that the two routes are very tentative, and will require some additional planning before they can be implemented.
County planners have also looked at the concerns of both restroom facilities along the route and collection of garbage. The proposed speed limit for trail users is set at 20 mph. At that rate, if the county wants to offer restrooms every hour along the trail, there should be one facility every 20 miles. That means four of five facilities along the route. The portion between Helper and Larks Valley Road and on to East Carbon and Sunnyside is the longest stretch without any existing restrooms.
Additionally, planners recognize that garbage collection is going to be necessary. Lev anger proposed that trash cans with secure lids be places within a simple containing structure. A pavilion that is enclosed with chain link fence on three sides is a possibility for such a structure.
Editor's note: This is the second in a series of four stories concerning the suggested route and issues relating to the proposed multi-use route across Carbon County.

PHILADELPHIA Because the Indian River Central School District is expecting an enrollment boom and has $2 million more in the fund balance than last year, the administration wants to hire 30 staff members.
During the Board of Education meeting Thursday, Superintendent James Kettrick and Assistant Superintendent Mary Anne Dobmeier proposed spending nearly $2.5 million in the 2013-14 budget for personnel, textbooks, the theater and library.
Youre faced with a fund balance in excess of anything youve had before, Mr. Kettrick said. You find yourself in a rather extraordinary position.
To keep receiving federal heavy-impact aid money given to support schools that enroll students from military bases the district must both keep per-pupil spending at or below the state average and keep only 4 percent of its money in an unassigned fund balance.
Having more than 50 percent military-based enrollment is only one part of receiving heavy-impact aid.
As Mr. Koch said, its a shot in the dark, Mr. Kettrick said.
Some of the new positions requested included another assistant superintendent to handle the states newly required Common Core curriculum and science-technology-engineering-and math classes, a primary school health teacher, adding four middle school teachers and adding 11 primary and intermediate school teachers.
These proposed hires come only eight years from the 2005-06 budget when the district lost $5 million in federal heavy-impact aid, slashing 50 staff and faculty positions. And it has only been six years since the district had to hike its tax levy by 19 percent and cut 14.5 teaching positions.
I would think the state as a whole is hurting for money, said board member Donald L. Brumfield.
If per-pupil expenditures go down in the state but increase at Indian River Central School, he said, the district would not meet the requirements for heavy-impact aid.
Mr. Brumfield said if the district had money, it should be used to put Smartboards in every classroom.
Other board members were also concerned about some of the hires proposed.
Were always being accused of being too top-heavy, said Thomas J. Lapp. Im not saying Mary Anne doesnt need help.
He said he wanted to find out what other districts of similar size were doing before hiring another assistant superintendent.
Some board members agreed a curriculum coordinator would be a better hire.
Peter D. Shue worried about where the district would put four additional middle school teachers to constitute another teaching team.
The space, is that not a concern for where to put those people? he asked.
Linda M. Capone said she wanted to see proof the two math coaches from the Department of Defense Education Activity grant the primary schools have been working with have helped improved math scores before the district rehires them and hires a third coach.
Tough but fair, Mr. Kettrick said.
The administration also proposed spending $153,000 on textbooks, $142,200 on libraries and about $29,000 for contractual agreements and supplies in the theater program.
The information technology, health care and revenues budget proposals will be discussed at the Board of Education meeting Feb. 7.

In order to be eligible for this list, a player must be 24 years or younger as of today (i.e. been born on or after January 11, 1988), and must have already exhausted his rookie of the year eligibility. So players like Jurickson Profar and Dylan Bundy don't qualify -- they'll appear on my top 100 prospects rankings in early February --while players like Mike Minor and Mat Latos just barely missed the age cutoff.
His thoughts on Tillman were particularly interesting:
Current: Tillman looked like a lost cause at the start of the 2012 season, but when he returned from exile in July, he started to resemble the guy who was a top-40 prospect in the game heading into the 2009 season. Tillman's fastball velocity returned, as he was sitting in the low 90s again and touching 95-96 while his curveball regained its old bite. The one new item is the much-improved changeup -- 80-84 with late fade -- a pitch Tillman likes to throw middle-away or down and away to lefties as an out pitch.
Future: As a prospect, Tillman projected as a No. 2 starter whose curve was his out pitch and whose change would be good enough. He's probably back to that ceiling, but now it's more of a question of improving his fastball command to get him to that point. For a guy who looked like a fifth starter or worse just seven months ago, this is an outstanding turnaround

ADAMS — Those who watched the "Magic Lights" parade downtown Sunday were either holding umbrellas or standing underneath the eaves of shops. But hard rain that persisted through the evening failed to douse the spirit of Christmas here, as 18 groups paraded down Church Street with festive lights.
"Tis the season to be jolly," said Nina O. Hershey, organizer from the Adams Chamber of Commerce who held a bucket to sell raffle tickets. "God doesn't take a vacation, and we've never canceled a parade here."
Along with watching their sons and daughters march in the rain, spectators also pitched in for a community cause by purchasing baked goods and hot chocolate from the Adams Revitalization Committee. The committee is seeking to raise $10,000 this year to purchase energy-efficient lighting for the village's Christmas tree and downtown streets, along with a banner.
"The lights are expected to last 15 years, and this will brighten up downtown Adams," said committee member Peter S. Ouderkirk, adding that $3,000 has been raised so far by donations from local businesses.
Dressed in rain coats and armed with umbrellas, a group standing outside Shear Delite salon at 4 East Church Street arrived early and prepared. Robert E. and Janeen M. Lee came to watch daughter Alexis P. Gravelle, a freshman at South Jefferson Central School, ride on a float she helped decorate for the FFA chapter.
"We're dedicated parents, and we came prepared," Mrs. Lee said.
Standing alongside the couple were Kathy L. Russell and son Dakota J., a sophomore at South Jefferson. Dakota was there to cheer on his older brother, Cameron A., a senior at South Jefferson who's an officer in FFA this year.
"He's supposed to be riding on the float's horse, because he's the only senior in the club this year," said Dakota, who added that his brother inspired him to join next year.
Other parents, like Laura S. Scanlon, showed up to support the Adams Explorers, a group of high school students who volunteer for the Adams Fire Department. The group rides along with firefighters to accident scenes to complete training. Mrs. Scanlon identified her son among the group dressed in firefighter attire as they handed out candy to the crowd.
"He's always wanted to be a firefighter and this is getting him ready to eventually be a volunteer here," she said.
Adams Boy Scout Troop 37 capped off the parade as about 15 youngsters came down the street, joined by scout leaders who carried torches. In keeping with this year's "Magic Lights" theme, scouts waved glow sticks and wore funky glasses that blinked with colored lights. After finishing the parade, the group stopped for a few minutes to pick up trash scattered near the sidewalk.
"There was a great turnout today, especially with the rain," said assistant scout master Karen C. Shelmidine.

CANTON Testimony concluded Friday in the murder trial of three Ogdensburg men after a final witness was hauled back to Northern New York from the nations capital to answer questions about a telephone conversation he said he had with one of the defendants.
He had asked me if I wanted to help rob somebody, Alex A. Mozingo testified Friday morning about a discussion with Anthony W. Lalonde in November 2010.
Ogdensburg residents Lalonde, Michael D. Durand and Michael S. Thorpe are charged with second-degree murder and first-degree robbery in the Nov. 18, 2010, death of Ralph E. Gene Lawton, 83, who lived in an upstairs apartment at 930 Ford St., Ogdensburg.
Mr. Mozingo, 31, Washington, D.C., formerly of Ogdensburg, was flown north Thursday night under police escort after St. Lawrence County Judge Jerome J. Richards authorized his arrest in response to a material witness application by the prosecution.
Mr. Mozingo said he used to work with Lalondes girlfriend, which was how he knew the defendant. He recalled speaking with Lalonde on the morning of Mr. Lawtons death.
He just said it was an old guy, Mr. Mozingo said, telling Chief Assistant District Attorney Amanda N. Nissen that he was told the object of the alleged heist was to be some money.
Investigators have said three masked intruders menaced Mr. Lawton and his roommate, Guy C. Bartlett with a wooden object.
Lalonde, then 31, of 1106 Ford St.; Thorpe, then 25, of 904 Elizabeth St., and Durand, then 29, of 513 Elizabeth St., are accused of causing severe injuries to Mr. Lawton that led to his death. Mr. Bartlett has testified that the masked intruders tossed him onto his roommate.
The men allegedly fled with more than $1,000 and prescription drugs.
Mr. Mozingo said Lalonde invited him to act as lookout.
He said he had a map drawn up of the house, gloves, a mask, Mr. Mozingo said.
Ms. Nissen asked Mr. Mozingo how he replied to the alleged invitation.
I told him I dont rob people, especially old people. They could have a heart attack and die, Mr. Mozingo told the prosecutor.
More than two dozen witnesses took the stand during the trial, in which testimony began April 19.
Among the defendants, only Thorpe testified on his own behalf, called to the stand Thursday by his attorney, William John Galvin.
Closing statements are scheduled to begin Monday morning, with the jury expected to begin deliberations before days end, Judge Richards said.

I used to buy an Obligata Gold for a nice-sounding E, but this plain Vision E does a great job! On my violin/fiddle, it balances nicely with a Helicore G, D & A.

CANTON The closing of the St. Lawrence County Certified Home Health Agency and the subsequent retirement of Public Health Director Susan J. Hathaway could give the county an opportunity for restructuring.
Anytime somebody leaves, were going to take a look at reorganizing the department, Legislative Chairman Jonathan S. Putney, D-Waddington, said. Im not sure if thats possible or not, but well take a look.
Ms. Hathaway, who acknowledged the last year was stressful with the countys decision to close the home health service, will retire Aug. 30.
Its been a rough few years with many programs being cut, she said. Its a time of a lot of change for Public Health and its hard for people who have worked here, sometimes for 35 years. Theres more change ahead. I am of retirement age and its just time.
Ms. Hathaway said she plans to move to Asheville, N.C.
Last year, the county turned down an $80,000 offer to sell the home health service, listened to staff pleas to rebuild the agency, then turned around and closed it eventually laying off more than 30 employees because it did not think it could compete with private providers.
When youve had a career developing Public Health, to dismantle it as Sue had to do was probably the last straw. I think it took a significant toll on her, said Legislator Alex A. MacKinnon, R-Fowler. I have nothing but admiration and respect for Sue Hathaway. She did what had to be done and what had to be done was not particularly pleasant.
Legislator Sallie A. Brothers, D-Norfolk, agreed Ms. Hathaway had a rough go.
She certainly presided over a difficult time in Public Health, she said. I think she was going to face a lot of changes. She talked about the stress and I understand that.
Legislators have not yet approached how to fill the void that will be left when Ms. Hathaway leaves.
Certainly there will be changes, because youre dealing with a smaller department, Mrs. Brothers said. We know we have to do a search.
The county has struggled in recent years to keep a permanent public health director.
Before Ms. Hathaways appointment in 2009, the department had been without a permanent director since Kathryn S. Abernethy resigned in 2005. Ms. Abernethy was the first permanent director since Mark C. Stoddart left in 2001.
Public Health has been a constant problem as far as finding leadership, Mr. MacKinnon said. It may take some time to find a replacement.

The Most Unusual Celebrity Baby Names
From the big screen to the small screen to the catwalk, we are just a little bit in love with the 1920s right now — and we're not the only ones. With Baz Luhrmann's adaptation of The Great Gatsby, starring the luscious Leonardo DiCaprio and oh-so-cute Carey Mulligan, set for release in December, '20s fashion is only set to get hotter.
Images from the set have had us drooling over fringed dresses, headbands and pearls (take a scroll through our gallery above to see our inspirations), but it's not the only movie-of-the-moment to be set in this most of decadent eras. An as-yet-untitled James Gray project (rumoured to be called Low Life) is currently in production starring Marion Cotillard as Sonya Cybulski, an innocent immigrant woman who is tricked into a life of burlesque. Ooh.
But fear not, fashion friends — for a quick dose of '20s glamour right now, look no further than Woody Allen's award-winning film Midnight In Paris which took home the gong for Original Screenplay at the Oscars this Sunday. Once again, Ms Cotillard was the natural choice as Parisian muse, Adriana. And luckily for us, the film has just been released on DVD. Hurrah! Having watched it over and over, we got to wondering about how to recreate such a fabulous look.
So we called in uber-stylist Hanna from Asos Mint Vintage's Marketplace who showed us her key pieces for nailing the trend — some of which were actual vintage 1920s garments! Ever willing to be the Grazia guinea pig, Editorial Assistant Jo Oliver jumped at the chance to play dress-up, trying on a selection of pieces in the glamorous setting of… our beauty cupboard! And here are the results:
Of course, flapper dresses are an essential part of 1920s style and we love this red sparkly number with black fringing (available to buy here for just £48). Hanna styled up the dress with a vintage 1920s pendant threaded through a black satin ribbon to make a fabulous necklace. And keeping with the sparkly theme, how gorgeous is this smoky grey sequin gown?
Headwear is another look synonymous with the 1920s and Hanna paired this black feathered headband with an original vintage sheer top (so delicate, we were scared we might put our hands through it!) over a simple black slip. And it wouldn't be a '20s-themed ensemble without a healthy smattering of pearls. But our personal favourite is this gorgeous art deco-inspired headpiece, which you could easily wear with your own LBD to create a period feel.
So if you're feeling the vibe and want to get a piece of the vintage action, head over to the Asos Mint Vintage Marketplace where you can get in quick and order that party dress pronto! Race you to the tills...

This study is an attempt to use SEER data to describe outcomes between IMRT and non-IMRT treatment. There are limitations to this study because of the data available in SEER. Although one can look at additional procedures and survival, toxicity data is limited and evaluation of this data should be taken with caution. It is interesting to see that in the definitive setting, patients treated with IMRT have fewer additional procedures. However, the follow up is shorter in the IMRT group which may account for some of this difference.

Recently stories have appeared on the news about people being lost in the Utah wilderness, particularly scouts. These situations, it seems to me, have been totally unnecessary.
Years ago, when my dad was a supervisor for the Blue Ridge Council of the Boy Scouts, he invented the "Dry pack" of matches. This was one or more books of matches wrapped in cellophane, then taped with scotch tape. This made the matches waterproof.
People should practice making these dry pack matches until they are certain that they can do it and they should submerge them in water overnight, just to make sure the pack works.
Dad also required all scouts who could not read a compass or did not have one to stay in camp.

Tropical Storm Helene forms along Mexican coast
MIAMI (AP) - Tropical Storm Helene has formed in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico, leading to the issuance of a tropical storm warning for the eastern coast of Mexico.
The National Hurricane Center said Friday afternoon that aircraft found the tropical storm about 90 miles (145 kilometers) east-southeast of Tuxpan, Mexico.
It has maximum sustained winds of 45 mph and was moving northwest at 7 mph (11 kph). The storm's center is expected to make landfall on Saturday.
The hurricane center says the government of Mexico has issued a tropical storm warning for its coast from Barra de Nautla to La Cruz.
Helene is expected to bring 5 to 10 inches of rain, with as many as 15 inches across northeastern portions of Mexico. A storm surge will raise water levels by as much as 1 to 2 feet above normal along the immediate coast and to the north of where landfall is made.
Meanwhile, Portugal has issued a tropical storm watch for the central and eastern Azores islands as Tropical Storm Gordon moves eastward.

This was billed to be one of the best meteor showers ever as the Perseids swept through Earth's orbit last Sunday. Even the weather was clear for a change.
I had never done star photography before, but I studied up like mad — and made a number of poor decisions that resulted in two useable photos out of 320 exposures. And no meteors captured!
So here's my Top 10 list of ways to screw up a star shoot.
10. Choose the wrong place. I went to Stone Lick State Park, the location used by the Cincinnati astronomer's club for their shoots I went to where there was a large parking lot and a beach, but it turned out to have a honking great security light that no one arranged to swtich off. Scouting the location that afternoon I'd spoken to a park employee, but he just shrugged….I can't imaging the astronomer's club hasn't dealt with that problem, but this wasn't an official function, so…
9. Too much ambient light from distant shopping centers. Even out in the boonies, there was enough light on the horizon to make things a little murky. Dark means dark, baby, and don't settle for anything less.
8. Have no way to deal with dew. The sky was clear, but the air was moist, and it all condensed on my camera lens. Had to interrupt my shooting sequence to wipe lenses, and even so a light mist of condensate kept creating a hot spot (and not too clear) in the center of many shots. There are expensive lens heaters available, and then there's this arrangement which I used a couple of days later. Don't anticipate crowds, and don't overestimate the common sense and good manners of said crowds. You'd be amazed how many people cruised in around 1:00 AM, lights blazing, car stereos blaring. I should have chosen a spot with less ease of access, but no crowds. Just not easy to find such a place.
6. MIsplace your red light night-vision headlamp (very helpful that is). Of course with the zoo out there on Sunday evening, they weren't so essential. A lightning trip to Walmart solved this problem for me on my way to the location.
5. Think you understand your camera's intervalometer, when really you're not so sure. (An intervalometer calculates how many exposures the camera makes, how far they are seaparated (the interval between exposures), and when the camera starts shooting). My problem was not being sure whether the start-time clock was time from NOW or actual local time. (Turns out to be local time, but I was slow figuring this out).
4. Don't have a good method of focusing in the dark. Autofocus is useless in these conditions. There are a couple of techniques that can help, but even so it's an iffy business. One way is to focus using the video or live-view function, at the highest ISO your camera can manage, then switch off live view and go back to the ISO you are using for the shoot. The other is to have practiced during daylight and making a note of just where the "magic spot" is for true infinite focus. There's a little indicator on your lens . When you're really in focus, note where that mark is relative to the ∞ (infinity) sign engraved on your lens. Then you can come really close to accurate focusing just by aligning the mark with your remembered spot along the infinity sign. You'll need the flashlight and maybe a small step stool to do this at night.
3. Underestimate the power of the moon. Local moonset was 10:55 pm, but even 45 minutes after that there was a powerful glow in the West; actually, it enabled me to get one of the only useable pictures from this night time folly.
2. Don't locate with a suitable foreground object. If you don't have one, you have pictures of the sky without something to give them a purpose and depth. You can get into trouble be being too close or too distant (too close is more of a problem really, because you want both the foreground object and the stars to be in focus).
1. Don't install fresh batteries and forget an alarm clock. Even with fresh batteries, you may run out of juice before the shoot is finished. That's why you need the alrm clock,, so you're awake to change batteries while the camera does its automatic thing. I was OK on battery power due to my "shootus interruptus," but in a subsequent shoot my batteries died after 3 hours 15 minutes, and they needed to go 3 hours and 45 minutes to do the whole sequence. I didn't know because I was asleep. Grrr.
Having committed all of these blunders, and having missed my chance at the Perseids per se, I set up for another go around at star track / time lapse photography two days later.
Here's what I did differently.
1 Did not use my f 1.8 28mm lens. Wide open this lens sucks in plenty of light but is just a whisker soft, and soft you cannot afford in this situation. Used the f2.8 24-70 instead. Practiced during daylight until I was sure I could find the infinity focus point by referencing the index and lens marks correctly.
2. Read and watched another tutorial on the D800's built-in intervalometer.
3. Rigged a hairdryer on a lamp stand to waft warm air over the lens to counteract the dew. It looks ugly, but it worked well.
4. Framed my shot during daylight.
5. Tested the shot around 10:30, made sure the focus was right, set the intervalometer and went to bed. Exposure was f2.8, 13 seconds (to reduce individual star tracking, little commas on every star), ISO 640. Next time out I will use ISO 800. Noise was not an issue with this camera at ISO 640, but the exposure needed to be bumped a bit in Photoshop. I think this camera will be OK at ISO 800, and I really don't want to lengthen the exposure.
6. Went to bed. Got up at 5:15 to find the camera was no longer shooting; the battery life ended 15 minutes before my shoot was scheduled to end. But it had completed 777 exposures, with results you can see below. Now I know that external batteries or a brief excursion to change batteries are vital.
Here's a single shot (number 534 as it happens)
And here's the time lapse movie:
So here's the tip of the day — do your homework and practice before you get to a one-time-event. You can get invaluable advice from

A Trajectory of Non-Objective Art...From the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum
and How it Continues to Resonate
Karole Vail and Andrew Huston Visit SMOA
Karole Vail and Andrew Huston discuss how non-objectivity still pervades artistic practice today. Tracing the arc of non-objective art from its origins at the beginning of the twentieth century in Europe and Russia to the Museum of Non-Objective Painting, as the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum was known before the Frank Lloyd Wright building was built in 1959, to a variety of artist-run spaces in Europe, the United States and Australia.
They consider how such radical art, which had been created over one hundred years ago, can still resonate today in a multitude of ways. These core ideas inform their own exhibition space and artist residency program as they pursue their roles as Co-Founders and Directors of Non-Objectif Sud in the South of France.
Realism or representational art is everywhere, in newspapers, magazines, photos, advertising and movies. It is information and is the visual expression we take for granted in our every day lives. It follows the natural human inclination to represent the world we see and all art has its origins in that instinct.
The imagery of non-objective art is metaphorical, making no reference to the natural world; therefore the viewer must build the transition from representational art to non-objective or abstract art. This drastic change requires a receptive mind. If we want to comprehend and value abstract visual language, we must develop the ability to conceptualize; we must learn to read the art emotionally and intellectually. Non-objective art does not offer obvious, comfortable and familiar clues to help us navigate the reality it is defining.
Often we do not realize or call to mind that all visual artis illusion, a visual arrangement that represents an invented reality. Every image is an expression of aconcept imagined.
Have you ever asked yourself how the artist constructs the image? Why or how does the artist make the work meaningful or thought provoking? What part does color play or how is color used? Do certain shapes recall memories or suggest obscure ideas? Do some materials encourage subliminal thoughts? Does empty space affect you? Does the art create a familiar or dissonant reality? Is the artist's process itself an important part of the outcome?
Our ability to make sense of what we see is based in the inherent mechanics of sight; our innate ability to perceive patterns, shapes and colors makes all modes and styles of art comprehendible. Non-objective work is as much the language of vision, intellect, imagination and emotion as are all other forms of visual art.
The art of this century has moved well beyond the picture frame and far beyond the bounds of traditional sculpture. It has traveled into other dimensions, both mental and physical, using every imaginable matter and material, objects of every sort, movement, performance, video, light, sound and even sometimes odor.
Are we capable of being receptive to the radical changes of our time?
Karole Vail has been a Curator at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum for the past fourteen years. She is a graduate of Durham University in England and studied at the New Academy for Art Studies in London. Karole is the co-author of many highly respected publications about early twentieth-century art including a biography celebrating her paternal grandmother, Peggy Guggenheim.
Andrew Huston is a noted contemporary artist whose work has been exhibited nationally and internationally for more than a decade. Recent solo exhibitions include Basel, Sydney, and New York. He was awarded his Bachelor of Visual Arts from Parsons School of Design in Paris and his Masters of Visual Arts from Sydney College of the Arts in Sydney, Australia.

Could the Mets still trade Dickey, even if he signs extension?
A team official told the New York Post that he is not sure if a contract extension for R.A. Dickey would guarantee that he also isn't traded this winter.
Matthew Cerrone, Lead Writer
Well, that's interesting. I hadn't considered that an option, though I have had several fans suggest this to me on Twitter, email and the podcast. At his age, and the unpredictability of his pitch, I would think Dickey actually has more value on the trade market with one-year and $5 million due to him, than he would with – say – three years and $30 million… but maybe I'm wrong. I still think if the Mets are going to keep, which is seemingly more likely every day, it's to keep him. They want a young, major-league bat for Dickey, which they have yet to be offered, according to the Daily News, and I don't see how that changes with a contract extension.
Previous updates and information on R.A. Dickey...
Contract: The Mets exercised their $5 million option for Dickey for 2013. He can become a free agent after next season.
Stats: Dickey went 20-6 with a 2.73 ERA, having allowed 192 hits and 54 walks with 230 strikeouts in 233 2/3 innings. He became the first Met to win 20 games since Frank Viola in 1990, and won the 2012 National League Cy Young Award.
Nov. 20: The Mets want a 'monster package' for Dickey, which is likely a few high-end prospects, major leaguers, outfielders and catching help, Andy Martino says in today's Daily News.
Nov. 19: The Mets and Dickey have been discussing a two-year contract extension, though Dickey is looking for more than $10 million a season, reports the New York Post.
Nov. 16: The Mets are likely offering Dickey a two-year, $20 million extension, though he was initially looking for at least three years beyond 2013, Matthew Cerrone has said on MetsBlog.

Play It Forward
Making it work
Felician alums and former soccer teammates bring their experience to the high school varsity coaching level.
Brittany Lohman of Nutley and Amanda Mottola of Secaucus first met nearly a decade ago, when they were teammates on the Meadowlands United Soccer Club. They went on to play together for two years at Felician College, where they were a part of the renaissance of that school's women's soccer program.
This fall, Lohman, 25, and Mottola, 22, again made soccer news together. The pair of Felician graduates is among the youngest varsity high school head coaches in northern New Jersey. Lohman is beginning her second season as the girls' soccer coach for the Becton-Wallington co-op squad, while Mottola recently ascended to the same position at her alma mater, Secaucus High.
Both former four-year starters on defense for the Golden Falcons, Lohman and Mottola have received much praise from their soccer mentors for their potential as coaches. As fall practice heats up, they are looking to take advantage of the rare opportunity they have been afforded.
'Motivated and upbeat'
Former Felician women's soccer coach Erin Fitzgerald recruited both Lohman and Mottola for the Golden Falcons. She says Lohman showed the characteristics of a successful coach early in her college career.
"Brittany was always a curious player," Fitzgerald said. "She would always ask questions and seek options as to how a situation could or should have gone differently. She is competitive and wants to win, but is also motivated and upbeat about soccer and will instill that in her players."
Lohman, a 2009 Felician graduate, credits her Nutley High experience for fueling her passion and tactical and technical ability as a developing player. In college, however, her inspiration and her first opportunity to coach came from a unique source – Patrick Snyder, the Felician men's coach at the time. Snyder hired Lohman as a club coach, which led to eventually being tabbed by Wallington as a boys' assistant after graduation.
Lohman obtained an elementary special education teaching position at Gavlak School in Wallington, and an opening emerged on the boys' soccer staff. Wallington High director of athletics Jim Branick has no regrets about hiring her for that position or recommending her for her current coaching job.
"You don't see too many women coaching boys' JV soccer," Branick said. "There are always concerns on how the boys will react to a female coach, but that was never an issue with Brittany. Right from the start you could see that the players respected her. Brittany inspired the players to work hard in practice, play as a unit, and enjoy being on the soccer team. So once the Becton/Wallington head girls position became open, it was clear she was the best person for the job."
'Hard-nosed and coachable'
Mottola, who graduated from Felician in 2011, did not see coaching in her future when she left the Rutherford campus. But after helping with the Rutherford youth travel program, she landed the JV and assistant varsity girls position at The Dwight-Englewood School for the 2011 season.
Fitzgerald believes that, while coaching may not have always been in Mottola's blood, she could easily see Mottola having success in her new role.
"Amanda was a hard-nosed player who always gutted it out," Fitzgerald said. "She was also very coachable. She will teach her players to be tough and work hard."
Mottola was part of the growth of the Secaucus High program, as the team went from 0-18-1 her freshman year to reaching the state tournament as a senior. She continued to follow the program during her college years, and when the varsity position became open, she says a handful of her former administrators and teachers convinced her to apply and recommended her to new athletics director Charles Voorhees.
Apparently, Voorhees did not need much convincing.
"Amanda was one of the best student-athletes that ever graduated from Secaucus," he said. "She had the passion, dedication and work ethic that set her apart from the rest. We are lucky to have her as our coach."

The $10.4 million project to restore the deteriorating Woolworth building has cleared its first hurdle.
The city Planning Department was notified late Friday afternoon that Empire State Development has agreed to increase a Restore New York grant to its original amount of $2.5 million from $1.82 million.
The state economic development agency lowered the amount last year after the previous developer changed the focus of the project from a boutique hotel to rental housing and decreased its budget from $10 million to about $8 million.
But new developers David Gallo and Erich H. Seber recently requested the original amount be reinstated because the projects budget is back at that $10 million level.
Getting the news of the additional $700,000 is a big step, said Kenneth A. Mix, the citys planning and community development coordinator.
Its a substantial amount of money, much needed by the project, Mr. Mix said after the Watertown City Council heard the news Monday night.
The developers want to convert the vacant Public Square landmark into about 50 apartments on the upper floors and commercial space on the ground floor. Recently, they took over the project from Long Island developer Michael A. Treanor, who agreed to sell the building to them for $400,000.
Another hurdle will come at the Dec. 17 City Council meeting when council members decide whether to waive an $18,422 building permit fee to the developers, sell some green space across the street for tenant parking and agree in principle for the developers to receive tax breaks.
On Monday night, council members seem to have agreed on the land sale and understood the need for a reasonable tax abatement. If the city agrees to it, the developers will take their tax break request to the Jefferson County Industrial Development Agency.
The City Council, the Jefferson County Board of Legislators and the Watertown City School District all would have to agree to the payment in lieu of taxes.
While they said they have not ruled them out, Councilmen Joseph M. Butler Jr. and Jeffrey M. Smith had some reservations about the citys financial concessions.
Mr. Smith said he would like to see the developers financial numbers before committing the city; Mr. Butler asked whether the developers could agree that the city waive just half of the building permit fees.
Why do we have to give up all of it all the time? he said.
But it could be the difference in getting the state to approve tax credits for the project if the city demonstrated it is fully committed to moving it forward, Mr. Mix said.
Mayor Jeffrey E. Graham and Councilwomen Roxanne M. Burns and Teresa R. Macaluso pointed out the importance of rehabilitating such a crucial historic downtown building. They said it may be the citys final opportunity to save the six-story building in the heart of the downtown business district.
Last week, Mr. Gallo, owner of Georgica Green Ventures on Long Island, and Mr. Seber, who owns a Maryland construction consulting company, said they intend to seek about $8 million in state tax credits to help finance the major renovations.
To take advantage of state tax credits, the two men have decided that all 50 units would be affordable housing. The application is due in January.
In other action, the council:
n Took no action on City Manager Sharon A. Addisons proposal to add a position to oversee hiring and handle other human resources activities. Council members agreed to discuss the confidential management position at a future work session.
n Set 6 p.m. Jan. 8 for a public auction to sell the former Fort Drum Vehicle Storage warehouse at 753 W. Main St. after a deal fell through with Ruby Charlene Williams last week. Ms. Williams, the companys chief financial officer, failed to go to the closing for the building last Tuesday.
