After being delayed more than a year, a proposed expansion to the Western Mining and Railroad Museum in Helper is in sight.
Museum staff and project designers presented a plan to the Helper City Council on Oct. 19 and stated that work on the museum expansion could begin as early as March.
In 2005, after opening bids on the project, the city council discovered that project costs had been underestimated by a significant margin.
At that time, the expansion was put on hold and the museum board was instructed to pursue more funding or find ways to reduce costs.
SueAnn Martell reported to the council last week that the museum board has done both.
In order to reduce costs, the museum board suggested altering the scope of the expansion.
At the same time, the board has been able to secure more than $300,000 in new funds, all of which are in the form of grants.
Initially, the expansion started as an effort to make the museum more accessible to those in wheelchairs.
The three-story building has no elevator. As a result, many of the museum's exhibits are not accessible to people in wheelchairs or others who may have difficulty climbing stairs.
The museum also has a single bathroom, which is not in compliance with guidelines set by the Americans with Disabilities Act.
In order to correct the issues, plans were made to add an elevator, accessible bathrooms and additional office space at the museum.
Once the expansion idea was on the table, the division of state history and the Utah Historical Society designated the museum as a repository for historical archives generated in the Carbon County region.
With that expansion included, planners added additional exhibit space.
Martell reported that the museum board recommends pursuing the museum expansion with a change in scope for the first phase of construction.
Rather than completing the entire facility, the board recommended constructing the shell of the building and finishing the installation of the elevator, bathrooms and archive facility.
If the city pursues the board's recommendation, other portions of the expansion will be framed and roughly completed, but will require additional work before they are usable.
By delaying portions of the expansion, the city can cut the cost of the project by as much as one-fourth.
P.J. Jensen, the project designer for the expansion, said the total cost of expansion is more than $1.2 million.
The first stage of the project is estimated at $863,000.
And since the project was put on hold in 2005, museum staff has been able to pursue additional funds, now totaling nearly $800,000, said Martell.
The two largest portions of that amount are the initial $242,000 the city received from the Utah Permanent Community Impact Board and $225,000 appropriated by the 2006 annual transportation spending bill, primarily due to the backing of Rep. Jim Matheson.
"Matheson has been in constant contact with me," said Martell.
She explained that that since contacting his office for the transportation appropriation, the congressman has provided other resources to the museum in order to secure additional funds.
An additional $118,000 was awarded by the Utah Department of Transportation as mitigation funds when the state destroyed a historical farm in order to expand U.S. Highway 6 in Helper.
Because of the museum's location near the junction of multiple scenic byways, $100,000 was awarded by the National Scenic Byways Administration.
Another $70,000 has also been promised from Carbon County restaurant taxes.
The board is waiting to hear back on a couple of other revenue sources - in particular, a $250,000 grant with backing from Sen. Orrin Hatch's office and $300,000 in other federal transportation funding.
The recommendation from the board at this time is to redraw and review the plans.
Martell explained that an assessment of the museum provided some minor suggestions, which she would like to see incorporated into the new plans.
Jensen suggested that a workable time line would be to complete plans this winter and have the project ready to bid by February 2007.
If the city had the bidding process completed at the beginning of March, work could begin in mid-March.
The scaled back project will lack some of it's functionality.
However, Martell explained after the meeting that it will be some time before the museum is ready to use the new exhibit areas.
In the meantime, the museum can benefit from the expansion, and the most expensive portions of the building can be completed before costs escalate too much further.
Martell also explained that the previous plans, with an estimated cost of $15,000, have been useful in applying for new grants.
Of the close to $800,000 raised for the museum project, approximately $40,000 has already been spent on upgrades to the existing structure which are necessary for the expansion.

I will always remember this year as the year we inherited the Christmas candles. They belong to Gerald, but they have lived at his Mom's house. Until now.
I've heard murmurings that this is not all of the candles, but I don't believe it. How can there even be more? If there are more, I don't have room for them.
I always thought I didn't want the candles to live at my house. They're not my style, I thought. But they are very festive. And they're cute, but partly creepy (I've been disagreed with on that last point) and that suits me just fine.
I mean, for reals, check out those two snowmen on the top row in the center. Aren't they weird?
Nonetheless. They're mostly cute and Maggie loves them to death. She has unwrapped all the candles that are pictured in plastic.
I love this guy. He seems very old, and old fashioned.
And the little mousie with a real bell! I like him, too.
After I took all these pictures, we found my Christmas candles in a separate box, purchased at Rhinebeck when I went in 2010. I thought the simple pine cone and tree were more my style, but they don't fit in at all with the others. Oh, well.
I'm sure my mother-in-law was happy to pass these along to us, and I'm happy to have them. Makes decorating easy, that's for sure!

Darden Restaurants is weeding out some Olive Garden overgrowth.
The Orlando-based company says it will slow down the pace of new restaurant openings for the flagship Olive Garden chain, as it works to revitalize the brand and catch up to changing dining habits.
Darden will open about 15 new restaurants annually for the next couple of years, down from the 36 per year that it had been opening. The company says it will also "temper" price hikes at its three biggest chains, which include Red Lobster and LongHorn Steakhouse.
Darden is looking to attract more customers who have cut back on spending and turned to less expensive chains.
"The price premium attached to casual dining is getting tougher to justify," Drew Madsen, Darden's chief operating officer and president, said at the company's investor day.

Multi-platinum recording artist Trace Adkins has produced more than 20 singles on the Billboard country music charts, including three that reached No. 1, but it's Adkins' commitment to our country and the people who defend it that have made him and the USO such loyal friends and partners.
Adkins will be heading to Ramstein Air Base in Germany to perform a special concert for the troops and their families stationed there in commemoration of the 10th anniversary of the attacks on America on Sept. 11, 2001. The concert will be broadcast live internationally on American Forces Network, beginning at 6 p.m. CEST (Europe)/ 7 p.m. AST (Baghdad) and stateside by The Pentagon Channel at noon EST/11 a.m. CST.
Adkins has made five tours with the USO and this sixth USO trip will be his first trip to Germany.
Adkins' recollection of where he was when he heard the news that day is similar to so many Americans. That the day began like any other.
"I was actually in my garage, smoking a cigarette and having a cup of coffee, starting the day I always used to," said Adkins in his familiar baritone voice. "I don't smoke anymore. My daughter was born on the fourth [of September] and so we were home with a new baby. And I was watching the TV when the second plane hit. I was immediately shocked and I guess it took 10 seconds to go from shock to saying we're going to have to kick somebody's [butt]."
So it was no surprise that Adkins was one of the first entertainers to embark on the USO's first tour to the Middle East following the tragedies. Adkins and others flew to Bahrain in Nov. 2002 and he still remembers the atmosphere.
"[It] was right on the eve of the beginning of the Iraq War," he said. "So everybody was pretty amped up. Most of [the troops] there knew what was about to happen. It was pretty tense."
That began a string of five tours over the next nine years that have led the country star to not only Bahrain and Afghanistan, but Iraq and Kuwait.
"I always enjoy doing USO shows," Adkins said. "You always run the gamut of emotions throughout the whole process. I usually try to tell people that the overriding sense for me is that when I come home I always feel a bit guilty, that they did more for me than I did for them. … That they did more to lift my spirits than I lifted theirs."
His no-nonsense approach to music and life make him a favorite with the troops. A huge supporter of America's Armed Forces and the USO, Adkins has performed live with the West Point Cadet Glee Club at the 2009 USO Gala, visited wounded troops at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C. and was awarded the USO Merit Award in 2007, the Wounded Warrior Project's (WWP) 2010 Talkhouse Award and the 2010 Medal of Honor from the Daughter's of the American Revolution.
Adkins' personality also lends itself to more than just singing. In 2008, he competed on Donald Trump's reality show "Celebrity Apprentice" where he was runner-up to current CNN talk show host Piers Morgan. Earlier this year, he appeared in the film "The Lincoln Lawyer", starring Matthew McConaughey and he will reprise his role as co-host (with Tony Award-winning performer Kristin Chenoweth) for the second annual American Country Awards on Dec. 5 in Las Vegas.

PAWTUCKET – As Lincoln All-Stars' manager Matt Netto drove the 125-plus miles home to Central Falls from Bristol, Conn. late Saturday night, dozens upon dozens of "What ifs?" flooded his mind – how an extra-base hit with Braedon Carney on first with no one out in the third could've changed matters; how Patrick Gribbin could've scored after beating out a perfect bunt with two down in the fifth; how similar this defeat was to the one Lincoln suffered in this same scenario four years before.
Back in 2009, then-skipper Dale O'Dell brought a different group of All-Stars to within two strikes of the Little League New England Regional Tournament title, but later sustained an emotion-crushing defeat to Peabody, Mass.
That elated squad snared the regional bid to Williamsport, home of the Little League World Series.
"I called Dale on the way back, and he told me how he was so sleepless after that loss, how hard it was to get over," Netto stated after Lincoln dropped a 1-0 decision to Westport, Conn. in what already has become a timeless classic. "He later texted me as to how he felt so down after that loss, and this one.
"That's when I noticed the difference. I didn't feel awful. Of course, I was disappointed. I drove home in complete silence. I didn't turn on the radio. I just sat there thinking, but I thought about how proud I was of every one of our kids, and what they had accomplished.
"First of all, they were playing for Cory Burke, and they wanted to help him (Burke's a 13-year-old who previously had been a stellar All-Star representing King Philip Little League of Bristol, R.I., He's also a youngster who discovered months ago he had been diagnosed with bone cancer).
"He had been in the stands cheering us on, obviously because he had wanted to see a Rhode Island team go to the World Series, just like he had hoped while playing for King Philip.
"That's when I also realized there are eight regional finals nationwide, and only 16 who qualify to play in those championship games, so we were one of the top 16 in the country," he added. "I also
thought about how there are only eight international regional finals. You look at it that way, and Lincoln, R.I. is now one of the top 32 teams in the entire world.
"That puts it more in perspective. Think about that: We're one of the top 32 around the globe. It's been an incredible journey, one I'll never forget. I'll remember this experience for as long as I live."
Once he returned, he decided to stop by the Overtime Sports Bay & Grill in Lincoln to see some friends.
"I watched 'Sports Center' on ESPN," he noted. "I saw us playing on national TV. I heard that 6,300 (fans) showed up to watch us against Westport. That's amazing! … I'm still a bit down, but then a friend of mine, Chris Bodwell, called me (Sunday) morning and asked me if I wanted to grab some lunch, so I said, 'Sure.'
"We ended up at the Madeira Club for the feast," he continued. "I was so proud to be back in Rhode Island. So many people came up to me and told me about how many people had supported us, were pulling for our kids.
"While we were sitting there outside eating, who shows up but Dominic Cunha, the kid who had pitched a masterpiece (against the Connecticut state champs), and his dad. Instantly, a bunch of little kids jumped up and ran toward Dominic to congratulate him, ask him about his experiences at the regionals.
"I was sitting 10 feet away, and it was incredible! It made me feel like a million dollars, how he had poured his heart out on the mound, and now he was being recognized for such a superb performance, just like he deserved. I know a lot of those kids love the game of baseball, and always hope they'll get such a chance. Dominic is a perfect example.
"He went 4 1/3 innings, allowed just two hits and a run and whiffed 10. How much better than that can you get? It was a masterful performance on the biggest stage for guys this age; he was dominant, and now he was being recognized. I felt fantastic. That's when I felt most proud of our boys."
After the defeat to Westport on Saturday evening, Netto stepped into the recreation center not far from Breen Field and the dormitories inside the massive A. Bartlett Giammati Complex for the post-game press conference. It was obvious he had shed some tears.
When asked what he had told his guys after the loss, he smiled, "That it was the greatest baseball game I had ever seen. Dominic was incredible. He just lost to a (more) dominant pitcher. (Chad) Knight was amazing."
And then some. The tall righthander allowed only one hit and a walk while striking out 14 Lincoln batters. He also yielded just two balls to escape the infield, the last Aaron DeSousa's long flyout to right with Carney on first and one down in the third.
With his 74 mph heater and astonishing breaker, Knight faced only three over the minimum.
"Knight's an amazing athlete," Netto stated then. "His curveball looks just like his fastball; it breaks just as it approaches the plate. The kid is a force."
To explain what a pitchers' duel the contest was, through the first four frames, both Cunha and Knight had mustered no-hit outings. The former had allowed four to reach base, one on a whiff of Knight and immediate wild pitch/error; a walk to Tatin Llamas and a hit-by-pitch to Ricky Offenberg in the second; and another free bag to Knight (he went to second on a passed ball in the third).
Through all of that, he had struck out nine.
As for Westport's ace, he issued a walk to Connor Benbenek in the second. After that, Carney reached first on left fielder Charlie Roof' dropped a fly in the third; and, finally, Gribbin laid down a stellar bunt hit in the fifth.
Knight too had recorded nine whiffs.
"We call him 'Big Game Dom,'" Netto smiled sadly at the press conference. "He's taken the ball for virtually ever big game we've played since he was eight years old, and he's always been there for us. He's an amazing young man and a great pitcher; it's just sad that we lost."
In the end, Netto had to pull Cunha with one down in the fifth, as he had reached the 85-pitch limit.
He brought in Steve "Big Country" Andrews (so nicknamed due to his 6-foot, nearly 200-pound frame)
after Cunha had surrendered Offenberg's leadoff double off the left-field fence; and an infield single to No. 9 hitter Drew Rogers, one in which Offenberg scampered to third.
(On the grounder, shortstop David Bordieri made a sensational diving stop, but couldn't make a play).
Rogers took second on defensive indifference, and Andrews walked Max Popken to juice the bases.
That's when Knight chopped a grounder that Zarek Larisa scooped up at third; as he prepared to fire to the plate, he dropped the ball, so tagged the bag to force Rogers. Still, Offenberg scored on the RBI fielder's choice.
Andrews then struck out clean-up batter Harry Azadian for the final out.
In the top of the sixth, Knight calmly fanned Larisa, forced Bordieri to ground to short and – stunningly – whiffed Andrews to end this legendary contest.
All told, Knight and Cunha allowed just three hits and three walks while striking out 24 between them; Knight finished with a complete game.
A Connecticut-based reporter asked Netto, 'If your third baseman doesn't drop it, are you still playing?"
The response: "Without a doubt. There's no doubt in my mind (that) we'd be playing long into the night. The thing is though, we wouldn't be here without 'Z.' He faced the fourth, fifth and sixth hitters in the (sixth inning of the) game against Vermont and gained the save.
"I don't blame 'Z,' and the kids don't, either. They know, and so do I, we're not without him," he added. "This was the greatest game I've ever seen, on any level, and I'm proud to be a part of it. We hit (Knight) hard a bunch of times, but they were right at somebody. They're a great team, and I'll be rooting them on in Williamsport."
Westport manager Tim Rogers was just as complimentary of Lincoln.
"It was a little stressful," he smiled at his own understatement. "It's hard to imagine exactly how well this game was played. Both kids pitched their hearts out. I mean, they both had no-hitters through four. It was an incredible game, and there were great defensive plays as well.
"(With Knight's command), I've seen it before, so I'm not surprised," he continued. "He loves the pressure, and he really delivered, but so did their kid. He was amazing! I had people telling me beforehand, 'Their ace (southpaw Kyle Marrapese) can't pitch, so you're going to be fine.' I knew better. I knew they had a few good pitchers, so I wasn't believing it.
"Dominic really brought the heat; his curve was alright, but his fastball was overpowering. Our kids are rarely overpowered, but that kid did it to us. It's a shame someone had to lose that game. I had seen Rhode Island play before, and to think we would've shut them out? I never would've believed it."
Netto mentioned, as the tilt progressed, he believed it may come down to a miscue or a pitch gone awry, yet there wasn't any. Neither error posted resulted in a run.
"I've been coaching this team for four years, and I've never met a group like this," he said. "After practices,m they'd come up to me and say, 'Thank you, Coach.' They're so respectful. I don't have kids, so all I can say is, when I do, I hope we have kids just like these."View more articles in:

DEXTER — After spending more than a decade as General Brown Central School District's superintendent, Stephan J. Vigliotti Sr. will resign, effective June 30, to fill a social studies teaching position at the junior-senior high school.
Board President Tasha L. Richards presented the resolution to the board during its monthly meeting Monday, but there was no discussion among board members, nor comments offered by Mr. Vigliotti, before the board voted 6-0 to accept his resignation. Board member John Hardy was absent from the meeting.
After the vote, there was faint applause from at least one person who attended the meeting.
Mr. Vigliotti's resignation comes three years after he was chastised by district taxpayers over how the resignation of former Dexter Elementary Principal Michael Lennox was handled in early January 2010. By February 2010, district taxpayers were told they weren't even allowed to say Mr. Vigliotti's name during public comment. A petition even circulated before the Feb. 22, 2010, board meeting, calling for Mr. Vigliotti's resignation. Nearly two months after that, Mr. Vigliotti requested his contract not be extended beyond June 30, 2014.
He then asked the Board of Education for the next two consecutive school years not to extend his contract beyond June 30, 2014. His superintendent's contract is renewable by board action each year.
Attached to the meeting agenda was a copy of Mr. Vigliotti's resignation letter to Mrs. Richards, which was dated Jan. 10. He said in the letter that he has considered "leaving the position as superintendent of schools for some time. After some reflection I have decided I would like to return to my roots as an educator and to teaching."
Since the district would have a vacant social studies teacher for grades seven to 12, Mr. Vigliotti said in the letter he was willing to resign as superintendent at the end of the current school year as long as the board appoints him to the social studies position as of July 1. After a two-year probationary appointment, the board will consider him for tenure in that position.
Mrs. Richards also presented fellow board members with a resolution to appoint Mr. Vigliotti to the social studies teacher position, effective July 1, which the board accepted 6-0.
While in 2010 Mr. Vigliotti said he had no intentions of ending his General Brown Central career, he was named a finalist for a superintendent position at Newfane Central School District in Niagara County. He was not hired. In May 2012, he was named a finalist as superintendent for the Auburn Enlarged City School District, according to the Auburn publication The Citizen. He also was not selected for that post.
He began his General Brown career in August 1997 when he was named Brownville-Glen Park Elementary principal. Nearly two years later, he was named principal of the junior-senior high school. In February 2001 he was elevated to superintendent when former Superintendent William K. Archer announced his retirement.
According to Mr. Vigliotti's 2009-10 employment agreement, his salary is $143,036.40. In his resignation letter, he said that given his service with the school district he would be at step 20, with a starting annual salary for the 2013-14 school year of $65,303. He also said he would be entitled to credit for 23 years of service, as he came to the district from various positions in other school districts.
If he uses no sick time between now and June 30, Mr. Vigliotti will be able to transfer 247.5 sick days to his employment as a social studies teacher. He also will be paid $18,979.83 for 34.5 unused vacation days if he does not use any between now and June 30.
While the board originally was scheduled to meet again Jan. 28, that has been changed to 6 p.m. Jan. 30 at the junior-senior high school, 17643 Cemetery Road, so Jefferson-Lewis BOCES Superintendent Jack J. Boak can explain the superintendent search process.

A new state gambling commission met for the first time in Augusta today and representatives of Maine's four Indian tribes hope it will mark the beginning of a new era. They have never given up hope of operating their own tribal gaming enterprises. But as A. J. Higgins reports, they will have to advance their proposals alongside other members of the group that also includes gambling opponents and representatives of the state's two casinos.
The new commission has a long name - The Commission to Develop a Competitive Bidding Process for the Operation of Additional Casinos or Slot Machines - which describes its purpose.
Even as the work gets off the ground, members of Maine's Passamaquoddy Tribe are planning to make another attempt to bring a combined racetrack and casino to Calais. Their hopes are riding on the makeup of the 20-member commission, which includes four tribal representatives.
But the commission also includes two representatives of Maine casinos, who want to see their interests protected, and someone from the Christian Civic League of Maine, who would prefer to see all forms of gambling in Maine outlawed. As Democratic Sen. John Patrick, the group's chair and one of four lawmakers on commission, knows - the panel has its work cut out for it.
"Our goals may be different and I would expect that, but even if there's 50 different things, what matters is what do we have in front of us as a charge in law with what we should try to come up with," Patrick said.
Currently, there is a moratorium on applications for gambling facilities in Maine. The one exception is for the Passamaquoddy Tribe, which worked out a compromise with the Legislature to revisit its 20-year-old effort to bring slot machines to Washington County.
But Brenda Commander, chief of the Houlton Band of Maliseets and a member of the panel, says the possibility of new gaming revenues interests all of Maine's tribes - even though Maine officials point out that the federally-recognized tribes ceded gambling rights when they signed the Maine Indian Land Claims Settlement Act in 1980.
"We're looking for those opportunities also, not just the Maliseet Tribe but all of the Wabanaki," Commander said. "And over the years, I think, it's been a little frustrating because it has initially been the Indian tribes who came out many years ago to do this."
And Commander wasn't the only representative from northern Maine to speak out on the issue. "It's safe to say that how many in this room have been past Bangor?" asked Chief Richard Getchell, of the Aroostook Bankd of Micmacs.
Getchell emphasized that too many studies on gaming tend to focus on the southern areas of the state, and that those opportunities should also be available residents of northern Maine - Indian and non-Indian alike.
"As we come down here from up north we always notice and recognize that we do have a population up there and it should be represented down here - and I know it is, but we always take every opportunity we can to point out that there's that age-old issue of two Maines, and so on and so forth," Getchell said. "Well we suffer from that so I think it's important. I'm just as curious to see what kind of impact that would have on the citizens of northern Maine, as it would the native tribes of northern Maine."
Given the tribe's unsuccessful track record of repeatedly trying to secure gaming concessions from the Legislature and the voters, Maliseet Chief Brenda Commander is, not surprisingly, somewhat skeptical that the commission will reach consensus on the tribal gambling issue, especially with so many diverse interests on the panel.
"I'm thinking probably not, but and I'm not sure where this will go from here," Commander says. "But I'm pleased that I'm here and that we're a part of this."
The commission can hold up to six meetings, and is required to submit a report with recommendations to the Legislature's Joint Standing Committee on Veterans and Legal Affairs by next February.

I would like some feedback as to what is the best webmail program out there.. I've looked into a few of them, but I'm not going to accept the most "Hyped" as the best program... I'm a strong beleiver that the underdog has better software due to more time on his hands, etc. *grin*
Anyways, free is good. There are a few that run 1K and thats utter bullshit. I is a broke mu'fugga. If I wanted to pay for software, I'd support the corporate giant BS..er, MS!
i dunno about best , but i run IMP on my home webserver, it can run ssl or unsecure
works fine, my web hosting guy also runs it at www.vortech.net

Management done for patches. :P
Seriously though, it's maintaining the patches for kernels or software by testing functionality, and stability after a patch is applied. When dealing with it on the end-user side of it, usually it deals with the kernel, and keeping it up to date with the latest patches available. For software, it's usually "package management", but technically speaking, it could be called the same.

The South Korean company's sales also should rise, but it didn't give any commentary on the expected results.
The carrier lost $2.38 billion in the quarter thanks to charges related to its wireline assets and its brand.
The Korean electronics giant posts a 74 percent drop in its mobile business operating profits during the September period.
The carrier managed to pull in even more customers than Wall Street anticipated -- despite high expectations -- but losses also widened.
The Web's biggest streaming-music service delivers an increase in profit, sales and its expectations for both to come. But active-listener growth kept up its slow slide, distracting investors.
The carrier still managed to post strong customer growth, again driven largely by an increase in tablet sales.
The world's largest chipmaker by sales continued to post stronger numbers in its PC and data-center businesses, but its mobile unit posted just $1 million in revenue and another huge loss.
The electronics giant blames higher marketing costs and lower handset sales prices for its fourth straight quarterly drop.

While much attention has been given to the debate over the wisdom of the economic stimulus program, the Sun Advocate has decided to take an impartial look at how much money has come into Carbon County and where that money has been spent.
It's a long list.
According to the government's latest report, the total value of grants and contracts awarded in the county through June comes to about $17 million. That averages out to about $800 for every human being living within the county borders. This includes only public works programs and does not include the tax breaks the majority of taxpayers here got as part of the stimulus.
Here is the breakdown by Zip Code:
84501 (Price) - $16,265,207
84526 (Helper) - $34,635
84542 (Wellington) - $272,188
84520 (East Carbon/Sunnyside) - $643,498
Not all of the money awarded has been spent yet, nor has all the money been spent for projects in the city of each Zip Code. The Carbon School District headquarters, for example, is in Price so the $3.3 million the district received counts toward the 84501 total. Likewise, the $2 million for the state's share of the Carbonville Road project is listed under the Price Zip Code.
It makes tracing the flow of money a bit like herding cats.
A case in point is the 84542 grant that went to the Wellington RUCD Head Start and Early Head Start. Executive Director Lynnette Mitchell explained that this program entails eight counties in Utah.
A big chunk of the money went to refurbishing the Early Head Start building in Moab, which will enable the Head Start program to move into the same building. That reduces energy use and utility expenses, which will be a long-term saving.
The rest of the money went for providing incentives for teachers to advance their education and additional money will go for a 17 month mentoring program to train teachers in the latest research-based early childhood education. There was also a one-time 1.8 percent pay raise for teachers.
Private companies have also gotten contracts to perform public projects. Pacific Central Steel, for instance, got $78,676 for steel fabrication as part of the push to remove the uranium mill tailings from the banks of the Colorado River outside Moab. That tailings project dwarfs Carbon County's awards. It's more than $100 million.
The contractor on the most recent upgrades at the Housing Authority apartments and received a $232,439 contract for the work. As reported earlier in this paper, although the work made the buildings look more attractive, the fundamental purpose was energy conservation and building preservation.
Helper received a Justice Assistance Grant of $34,635 for its police department.
The Southeastern Utah Association of Local Governments was appropriated about $2.3 million for home weatherization projects and by last summer had spent $500,000 of that. The program reduces energy consumption and utility bills, which make up a big proportion of low-income households' expenses. Less energy consumption means less environmental impact and also produces long-term saving for the government by reducing the burden on the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program over the long run, the grant justification paperwork explains.
The list goes on: $2.5 million for improvements on Highways 10 and 55; $138,234 for health care services in East Carbon/Sunnyside; $34,950 for the Southeastern Utah Health District for a program for infants and toddlers with diseases.
USU-CEU was awarded $2.2 million for faculty and staff retention.
Pinnacle Canyon Academy received $548,000 for general education, at-risk students and students with disabilities.

CUMBERLAND — On Friday, March 15, students at Cumberland High School had Aydan Nyberg in their hearts — and on their sleeves.
Aydan, an eight-year-old student of the Cumberland Hill Elementary School, has been battling cancer since age 3 and has inspired the high school to show support for him in a variety of ways, including wearing orange-colored clothing — because orange is his favorite color — and holding a number of fundraising projects.
Orange was everywhere in the school, in the school's hallways and classrooms, in the school cafeteria, and also in the Wellness Center when orange-clad athletes began to show up for afternoon workouts.
The idea was show you were a member of "Aydan's Army," one of the youth's supporters explained.
"I did it because I wanted to show respect for Aydan and send him support," Moulaye Sangare, a ninth-grade member of the wrestling and football teams, said of his own orange get up for school on Friday. "We also raised money to let him know we care," he said.
Some students at the school bought orange T-shirts to help defray Aydan's medical costs and to contribute to cancer research and others purchased wristbands or raffle tickets to help out.
Jean-Luc Lussier, a ninth grader, said he also wanted to show respect for Aydan by wearing orange and to help out with the school's fundraising effort.
"His story was a meaningful story for everyone and it just inspired us to do as much as we could to donate to his cause," Lussier said.
Some of the students brought in Legos to donate to Hasbro Children's Hospital and there was an opportunity during the school's lunch periods to buy tickets for drawings held throughout the day. The students also signed a large banner for Aydan that was laid out on the cafeteria floor.
Aydan was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer at the age of three and after under going treatments including hemotherapy, radiation and surgery for that illness, faced a new battle with a form of leukemia, according to his website, "Aydan's Army." He has also undergone bone marrow transplants in his latest fight and undergone treatment at Hasbro Children's Hospital, Boston Children's Hospital, the Dana Faber Cancer Institute, and St. Jude's Children's Hospital.
Cassidy Nunes, another of Aydan's Army members at Cumberland High School, said she found Aydan's story to be inspirational.
"He's been through so much we just felt we had to wear his favorite color to show support for him," said Nunes, a tenth grader.
Fellow tenth-grader Lindsay Sheehan said she believed a lot of kids in the school were wondering what they would do if a young sibling were to face an illness like Aydan's.
"I think they know if they were to go through something like that, it would be devastating," she said.
Sheehan also believes wearing Aydan's favorite color could have an impact on him. "Because he is so young, he would look up to high school students, and I think it means a lot that we are able to support him," she said.
Although the orange clothes and signed banners were only symbols of their support, Maddie Anderson, another tenth-grader, said it was important for the students "to show that we care."
"We know about what he has had to face and we want to help him."
A day earlier, the students had raised about $500 for Aydan's cause, Anderson noted, and that amount had been likely doubled or more with everything the school did March 15.
Teachers at the high school took photographs of all the students' fundraising activities and planned to give Aydan and his family a scrapbook as a keepsake.
The color of orange had also seeped into Cumberland High Principal Alan Tenreiro office that same day. His secretary, Kate Tracey, was wearing orange, and he also had on a sweater with that tint.
In addition to having "Clipper Pride," the school's students have been working to add the concept of being part of the change they would like to see in their school, their community and the world, Tenreiro said.
As the student events unfolded in support of Aydan last week, Tenreiro said it was enough "to give you goose bumps to see so many students living up to those expectations."

No news could be good news.
That was the feeling from some community leaders Tuesday in the absence of an announcement from the state Office of Mental Health about the fate of the St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center.
The lack of news could mean that state officials took to heart what community members said in support of the center at last weeks OMH listening tour session, said Robert O. McNeil, Lisbon, chairman of the St. Lawrence River Valley Redevelopment Agency.
Im optimistic, he said. There was a lot of good testimony there.
Acting OMH Commissioner Kristin M. Woodlock said at the session that she expected to finalize a plan on the future of mental health services in the state by Monday. That plan will include a downsizing of inpatient beds, an expansion of outpatient services and the establishment of regional centers of excellence that will partner with hospitals, universities and community agencies for research and care. The plan has prompted fears from community leaders and mental health advocates that the psychiatric center could close, putting 520 people out of work and forcing patients to travel far to seek care.
Ogdensburg City Manager John M. Pinkerton said he also remains optimistic, and he did not expect to hear anything this soon.
I think there will be an announcement made by the governor when its appropriate and when its at his best advantage to do that, Mr. Pinkerton said. I think people are antsy, and I understand that, but the next step is in the governors hands, and then we will have to determine what we do next.
Gov. Andrew M. Cuomos office did not return a call Tuesday seeking comment on whether OMH had delivered its plan for his review.
Optimism might remain, but economic development officials are well aware of the worst case scenario.
Losing 520 jobs will have a devastating effect on the Ogdensburg economy and beyond, said Wade A. Davis, Ogdensburg Bridge and Port Authority executive director.
The number of jobs at the psych center is equal to the number of jobs currently in the industrial park, he said. It would be very difficult to find a replacement for those jobs.
He said until this year, the industrial park was still recovering from the downsizing and eventual closure of Breconridge that started in 2006. The company at one time employed more than 100 people and had 82 on its payroll when it shuttered in 2010.
We are only now back at pre-closure levels, and that was recovering five, 10, 20 jobs at a time, Mr. Davis said. This is of a much larger scale.
The ripple effect from the loss of jobs would touch the entire north country, St. Lawrence County Industrial Development Agency CEO Patrick J. Kelly said.
He said adding more than 500 jobs on top of employment losses in recent years at General Motors, Newton Falls Fine Paper and other firms would only make a bad situation worse.
If people cant afford to feed their families, they cant stay, he said. The effect just keeps compounding. Replacing those high-caliber operations and those high-caliber employees is so difficult anywhere. But I believe its harder here than it is in other areas where there is more economic activity and more opportunities to find other work.
Mr. Pinkerton said while hopes for the best, he has faith the north country will find a way to survive if the worst happens.
When we lost Diamond National, it was a big blow to this community. People didnt think wed ever survive it. When Augsbury went out, we didnt think wed survive that, he said. Were a hardscrabble people. Resiliency is part of who we are. I dont want to go there yet because I dont believe its going to close. If it does, we have to have contingency plans and work all the harder.

Read: The Three Types Of Owners and Which Group Is Pushing The Lockout
At CBC, Elliotte Friedman says that the NHL owners can be put into three different groups.
One group is the owners who want to play, another is a group in the middle who Friedman says "want a better collective bargaining agreement but recognize not playing is worse" and the third group is the hard line owners.
Friedman thinks that the final group, the hard line owners, are comprised of the Boston Bruins, the Islanders, the Panthers, Ducks, Blue Jackets, Coyotes, Blues, Capitals and Stars.
In terms of home attendance for those teams listed above, the Bruins ranked 9th, in a tie with the Rangers and six other teams at 100%.
The Islanders ranked 27th (81.3%), the Panthers ranked 23rd (86.6%), the Ducks ranked 24th (86.4%), Columbus ranked 28th (80.8%), Phoenix ranked 30th (72.5%), St. Louis ranked 19th (98.2%), the Capitals ranked 6th (101.3%) and Dallas ranked 29th (76.8%).
Andy Strickland writes at True Hockey that if the players could reach across the table and grab somebody, they would likely pick Jeremy Jacobs, owner of the Bruins, over Gary Bettman.

That will never cease to give me chills. Cool video.
All I can say is......Go Navy !
Wow... What a ride.... And Hold On.
wow, awesome power, great video, thanks for sharing.
Gads why did the Shipping company that had my stuff lose all my Super 8s. I had a ton of Carrier cats and traps from my seats on the EA-3B.
That was awesome! How about a video that shows their landing?
There is a really good one floating around You Tube from the right seat of an A6 intruder
omg - i feel the need...the need for speed! this is THE COOLEST!
Factoid: I remember a briefing where we were told that a cat shot equated to us pulling 5-7 "transverse" G's (through the chest)for that couple of seconds it took to throw you off the pointy end.
If that wasn't enough, when the pilot returns to his airport he will have to find out where it went. USAF airports stay put.
This has spiked my interest, anyone know of a carrier landing from a similar POV?
What a rush! We could use a thrill ride like that at the state fair.
Note where the pilot's hand is during launch: He doesn't touch the stick till he's off the deck. The launch crew don't want him touching anything until he's on his own!!
Impressive! Used to prep the pre-flight briefings on the USS Intrepid (CVS11). Never got to experience a cat or trap, but I did hitch a chopper ride once in an SH-3 on guard duty, so I've watched this from aloft. Always cool. I'm curious about the F18's altitude by the video's end. Any pilots here care to estimate his angels?
awesome video
super fast

Live Entertainment
Entertainment Calendar / Casual Bar Menu
A lively jazz bar with a light menu adds to the unique entertainment experience that earned the restaurant a notable spot in Portland's Best Places guide the past six years. In 2006, Wilf's also won top pick from AOL for the best atmosphere! Zagat has continued rating Wilfs with high marks.
Eldon T Jones,Ron Steen, Tony Pacini, Devin Phillips, Toni Lincoln, Jean Ronne, Gretta Matassa, Ellen Whyte, Pete Peterson, Michael Allen Harrison, Shelly Rudolph, Mia Nicholson, Richard Arnold, Bobby Torres and many more of Portland's best jazz artists perform Wednesday thru Saturday, 7:00pm.
Wilf's offers a great casual bar menu which begins at 4pm until closing, offering great cocktails and light bites for all palates. Our Wilf's burger is said to be the "best" in Portland. During the summer months enjoy our "flavored" margaritas while you sit outside and enjoy the jazz as it breezes through the windows to you!
Support the arts in our community … at restaurants, clubs, parks, local theatres, and most of all, schools.
See our Event Calendar for upcoming events and artists listings.
Most Shows have a "Cover Charge"
Cover charges apply to all when Wilfs features live music in our bar area, that includes those of you only enjoying a libation or a full dinner – Wednesday-Saturdays, 7:00pm. Quite simply, the cover charge amount is determined by the evenings entertainer and is paid directly to the artists that you are enjoying each night at Wilfs. While the cover varies depending on the evening and the featured act, we still consider this an incredible value for your entertainment dollar. And, most of our acts are local so the money you are paying stays in the area and continues to support a lively arts community.
Don't worry – when you join us for drinks or dinner and plan on leaving before the music starts, we won't ask for a cover charge. Cover begins at 7:00pm – we want to make sure our musicians are paid for their performance. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask your host or server. Thank you for your continued support!

ADAMS A 68-year-old woman faces arson charges, accused of burning her house and causing extensive damage to a neighboring duplex in a downtown Adams fire in February that left five people homeless.
Cynthia A. Smith was charged Thursday by the Jefferson County Sheriffs Department with third-degree arson and first-degree reckless endangerment, both felonies, and misdemeanor criminal mischief. She turned herself in at the Metro-Jefferson Public Safety Building, Watertown. She was arraigned in Lorraine Town Court and released on her own recognizance to return to court Nov. 12.
She is accused of setting fire to her single-family home at 24 Grange Ave. on the afternoon of Feb. 2. The flames spread so fast that they jumped over a driveway and another 20 feet to extensively damage the duplex at 22 Grange Ave. Mrs. Smiths 90-year-old house was left a charred mess, with much of the exterior gone on one side.
She was taken to Samaritan Medical Center, Watertown, for unspecified treatment. The tenants in the neighboring house evacuated safely.
The duplex is owned by Lisa Ann Levely, LaFargeville, according to the Jefferson County Real Property Tax Services website. Both damaged structures remain standing. It remains unclear when, or if, they might be torn down.

According to the chairperson of the ASPA's judging committee, Richard M. Plass, Ph.D., The Eagle was an outstanding example of scholastic publication in format, content and presentation. Plass commended the staff for their dedication and concern for the improvement of their publications.
The newspaper received perfect scoring on content coverage, page design and creativity. Other categories included general plan; art, advertising, and illustrations; and editing.
Placing first, behind CEU's Eagle was Interrobang, Barton County Community College from Great Bend, Kan. The paper scored 65 points behind CEU's paper. Second place went to the Hoopee Bird from East Georgia College in Swainsboro, Ga.
The 2006-07 editor of The Eagle is Ben Waldon from Price with Susan Polster as its adviser.

Cost of Ownership data coming soon
There is no cost of ownership information available for the 2013 Mercedes-Benz G-Class G550 Sport Utility at this time
2013 Mercedes-Benz G-Class G550 Sport Utility cost of ownership data is powered by
Ownership costs are the costs to purchase and operate a vehicle over a period of time. Understanding these costs may enable you to save money and help you make a wiser decision when choosing your next new car.
Regardless of the "value" claims that you may read in car reviews or hear in advertisements, the economic value of a car is based on how much it will cost to own and operate compared to its purchase price. In a sense, purchase price is "what you pay" and the ownership costs are "what you get."
Ownership costs can differ greatly. The cost to own and operate two different vehicles with equal purchase prices can differ by thousands. Of course when evaluating ownership cost for used cars and trucks, a vehicle's condition and mileage will greatly impact ownership costs, therefore it's important to compare similar vehicles in similar condition for an accurate picture.

Basic Warranty:
The basic warranty covers everything except items that are subject to wear and tear or replacement in the ordinary course of vehicle ownership, such as oil and air filters, wiper blades and brake pads. Tires and batteries are often excluded, but usually have their own warranty provided by the manufacturers of those items. Emissions equipment is required by Federal law to be covered for five years or 50,000 miles.
Drive Train Warranty:
In some cases the drive train warranty continues after the basic warranty has expired. This part of the warranty covers most of the parts that make the vehicle move, including the engine, transmission, drive axles and driveshaft. Like the basic warranty, consumable parts such as hoses and belts are not covered. However, most of the internal parts of the engine, such as the pistons and bearings, which are also subject to wear and tear, are covered by the drive train warranty.
Roadside Assistance:
Many manufacturers provide a service that will rescue you if your car leaves you stranded, even if it's your fault. Lock yourself our of your car? Run out of gas? Got a flat tire? A call to the manufacturer's toll-free number will result in somebody showing up who can help you out. There is a huge variance in these programs so check ahead of time to see what is covered and what you will have to pay for.
Rust or Corrosion Warranty:
Rust or Corrosion Warranty: This warranty covers the vehicle's sheet metal, and protects you from rust and corrosion that are severe enough to cause a hole - surface rust is not covered. However, if you keep your car washed and waxed rust shouldn't be a problem.

It wouldn't be Christmas without Wallace & Gromit appearing on our screens during the festive fun and this year is no exception! You might have already spotted the inventive pair in some yuletide adverts in the lead up to Christmas and you'll all be glad to know that there's a lot more to come...
Wallace & Gromit in the new Marks & Spencer Christmas adverts
Wallace & Gromit Films
Get ready to settle down and enjoy all five of Wallace & Gromit's adventures over the holidays. Some are even being aired more than once so you can't miss them! Below are all the times for Wallace & Gromit films over Christmas;
Sat 26th December 1640 Film: Wallace and Gromit Curse of the Were Rabbit, (R)
Mon 28th December 1900 Wallace & Gromit: A Matter of Loaf & Death, (R)
Tue 29th December 1755 Wallace & Gromit: A Grand Day Out, (R)

Thu 31st December 1720 Wallace & Gromit: The Wrong Trousers, (R)
Sun, 20th December 1900 Wallace & Gromit: A Grand Day Out
Mon, 21st December 2000 Wallace & Gromit: The Wrong Trouser
Sat, 26th December 1640 Wallace & Gromit in the Curse of the Were Rabbit Rpt Simulcast with BBC ONE
Tue, 29th December 1755 Wallace & Gromit: A Grand Day Out Simulcast with BBC ONE
Wed, 30th December 1750 Wallace & Gromit: A Close Shave Rpt Simulcast with BBC ONE
Thu, 31st December 1720 Wallace & Gromit: The Wrong Trousers Rpt Simulcast with BBC ONE
Wallace & Gromit for Marks & Spencer
The duo are also featuring in Marks and Spencer's Christmas adverts, alongside other British celebrities like Stephen Fry, Philip Glenister and Joanna Lumley. The ad has the theme 'Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without...' and sees all the celebrities listing their favourite things about Christmas. Another advert also shows Wallace & Gromit ordering their Christmas shopping including, of course, cheese, to be delivered to their door.
Everyone had great fun filming Wallace & Gromit's parts for the Marks & Spencer Christmas adverts, here are some fun facts about their making...
• The tree decorations in Wallace & Gromit's house are all based on the real M&S Christmas 2009 range. They were first moulded in resin, sprayed gold and dipped in a glass paint mix to create the shine and then decorated with glitter and beads.
• It is the first time a computer has been seen in Wallace & Gromit's world. It was handmade in our prop department and took four days to fabricate as it had to have working miniature lights fitted so it looked like it was switched on. It also had to be animatable when Gromit touched it.
• The snow falling outside the window was created with computer animation in post production
• Gromit's albums were designed by our illustrator Nigel Davies with some puns for titles such as the Red Hot Chilli Puppies, Let it brie by the Beagles and Good King Wensleydale by Stilton john. These are not necessarily seen on first viewing but are there if fans care to take the time to find them.
Wallace & Gromit's Energy Saving House
You may also have noticed that Wallace & Gromit are starring in their very own npower adverts, where they are seen making their house energy efficient and ready for Christmas.
They also have their own Energy Saving House online, which you can explore to find helpful tips on how to make your house energy efficient. The house has been decorated in preperation for Christmas and if you look around, you might find some surprises too! Visit Wallace & Gromit house and have a look around here.
Have a cracking Christmas everyone!
Cracking! I wonder if Nicks planning anything big for this hole thng?
I saw the record puns!
he he... i had great fun using my sky + the other night reading all of them.
If you find a tv in marks and spencer i think you also take a good bet that they have the advert with wallace and gromit in it.
Thanks for those facts Kirstin, they're just cracking!
It's not just a claymation duo, it's an Aardman-animated claymation duo. XD
YULE love it xD
Anything for the US to look foreword to?
let it brie? this is coming from a beatles fan,but that is simply genius.
i am watching a grand day out at 7:00pm
Thanks for reminding me kldceltic!
the wrong trousers is on today at 8:00pm
I've recorded that, but thanks anyway!
hehe am watchin it
kldceltic was it good

Sometimes when i look up the videos, they say its not able to view do to the type of grammer in it.....ugh. Well Im hoping this christmas will be a bit cheesey...(W & G filled)
Of course the big question is will this 'The Wrong Trousers' have the original music or the DVD music score when Feathers plays his radio and Gromit watches telly...? I remember the BBC repeat 3 years ago had the original music at least!
Anyone know yet?
Whenever I have seen the Wrong Trousers on TV, it always contains the original music and for some reason it fits the scene a lot better then the music used on the DVD version.
The music is different on the DVD because of contractual reasons, in other words it can cost money to use certain songs from different record companies.
I noticed that to. Dvd and once they played it a long time ago i watched it off of live tv.... Whats with that? Like a play over the song er something?
I Hate The Replaced Music. As TWT Was The First W&G Film I,And Probably Alot Of Other People, Saw,The Music Played During The Gromit Sleeping Scenes Are Just Too Iconic To Be Replaced. I Do Hope The Original Music Is Restored For A Later DVD Release Sometime Soon.
Any new updates on a new Episode with W&G or anything Nicks making?
unfornately not,but i do think there may be a few more w&g adverts in the new year and obviously the new series.
oh, cause i was wondering y nothing new was hapening..
TWT Wasn't The First Wallace And Gromit Film, CT.
AGDO Was.
I Know That Jamie,But I Said It Was The First Film I Saw. Read More Carefully,Thanks.
Just seen TWT on BBC1 a few minutes ago, and they did play the original music.
Speaking of the music, I always wonder why Wallace can't hear it!
