BANGOR, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- In the last 6 months, Bangor Hydro Electric Company has had thieves steal nearly $50,000 worth of electricity, as well as hundreds of pounds worth of copper from it's substations. Thefts that have led to a partnership with law enforcement.
Friday morning Bangor Hydro and Maine Public Service Company announced that with the help of nearly a dozen law enforcement agencies, they're hoping to put a stop to the copper thefts in eastern and northern Maine. Bangor Hydro estimates that it has lost more than $48,000 worth of electricity. Often times when customers somehow disconnect key wires in their power meters, so the meters aren't accurately showing how much electricity is being used.
"Thieves get very clever in terms of diverting power and so it's more difficult to catch some of those," said President and COO of Bangor Hydro and Maine Public Service, Gerry Chasse.
The Bangor Police Department is currently investigating 8 electric service and copper theft related cases. In the last year, 23 charges have been filed for theft of services or equipment by Bangor Hydro and Maine Public Service. Charges in these cases can range from class E misdemeanors to class B felonies.
"You could go to jail for a very long time based on how much you steal in copper or electricity," said Sgt. Paul Edwards with the Bangor Police Department.
If found guilty of those charges, a person could face up to 10 years in jail and as much as $20,000 in fines. Anyone with information about meter tampering or other tampering of electric utility equipment is asked to call their local law enforcement agency.

I am looking for some help on a small project for my site.
I haven't created anything yet but what I would like is a simple email form (which I could create)
But I would like it to have a section with 10 lines where you can input 10 email addresses.
Upon entering the emails, once submitted, it would send them a pre-designed email, inputting informations put into the form initially.
For example:
It could be a party invitation
You fill in host name, date of even, time, place, and 10 email addresses
It sends a pre-designed "invitation" to the 10 email recipients, inserting the host name, date, time etc in the email body where i would preset it to go.
Is this simple? Or is it difficult, requiring mysql etc.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Operators at Exelon Nuclear's Limerick Generating Station shut down the Unit 1 plant today for a scheduled maintenance outage to allow workers to replace a valve on the plant's steam piping system.
Pottstown, Pa. - Operators at Exelon Nuclear's Limerick Generating Station shut down the Unit 1 plant today for a scheduled maintenance outage to allow workers to replace a valve on the plant's steam piping system. Station operators, who continuously monitor plant performance, made the determination to replace the valve this weekend to ensure reliable operation of the plant.
Plant personnel will complete the maintenance and then begin start up procedures to return the unit to service. The repairs can only be performed with the plant offline.
"Careful and continuous monitoring of plant equipment is essential to safe and reliable operations at Limerick Generating Station," said Bill Maguire, Limerick site vice president. "Our operators are well-prepared and highly trained to implement safe and effective solutions to perform the scheduled maintenance and safely return the unit to service."
Limerick Unit 2 continues to operate at full power. Limerick Generating Station is located approximately 21 miles northwest of Philadelphia. With both units at full power, the site can produce enough carbon-free electricity for 2 million homes.
Exelon Corporation is one of the nation's largest electric utilities with more than $18 billion in annual revenues. The company has one of the industry's largest portfolios of electricity generation capacity, with a nationwide reach and strong positions in the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic. Exelon distributes electricity to approximately 5.4 million customers in northern Illinois and southeastern Pennsylvania and natural gas to approximately 490,000 customers in the Philadelphia area. Exelon is headquartered in Chicago and trades on the NYSE under the ticker EXC.

Review for GMCD 7235 - Saint-Saëns - Piano Trios No. 1 & 2
Cellist and conductor open with great vigor, and a sense of address. How a South Korean conductor developed such a feel for the idiom I dont know, but the years spent at University of Pennsylvania (he studied with Crumb and Rochberg among others) could not have hurt. Kreger plays as to the manor (and manner) born, with breadth and passion, and in the lento section, with surpassing tenderness. The cellists intonation is, as usual with him, rock-solid; his rich sound is tonally beautiful. I find the recorded sound entirely satisfactory. ....

|The new fire tower that was constructed this fall near the Carbon County Fairgrounds will be an excellent training facility for the regions fire fighters and emergency personnel. It is one of the few metal towers in the area, with many of the others being concrete. Area fire departments will begin using it in the new year.
In an effort to assist local fire agencies as well as lower insurance costs, Carbon County officials along with county commissioners explored ways to make the local area a safer place to live.
The team came up with the plan to build a tower which will allow fire fighters from Carbon and Emery counties to train as well as gain valuable hands-on experience.
The project has been several years in the making, but once grant money was established, the tower was built quite quickly.
"Since the money became available, it was just a matter of months for the tower to be built and ready to operate. Now all that we are waiting on is training, which will teach us how to use the tower successfully without damaging the structure," explained Price Fire Chief Kent Boyack.
The tower is five stories tall and enables fire fighters to create realistic training scenarios including smoke and flames.
On the main floor, a burn room has been constructed which will allow the fire fighters to create an actual fire up to 1500 degrees Fahrenheit without damaging the structure.
Inside the burn room are large square panels which protect the actual building structure from fire damage. Also included are several temperature gauges which keep close track of the extent of heat which is produced at any given time in the room.
"These temperature gauges help us to keep an eye on how hot things get inside the room. If we start to exceed the maximum temperature, we know to extinguish the flames before damage is done to the panels inside the room," explained Boyack.
Because the panels cost a significant amount of money to replace, local fire departments have agreed to refrain from using either of the two burn rooms in the tower until they have received training on how to control burns without damaging the material.
"I've heard of fire departments that jumped right in and used their burn rooms without knowing what they were doing. The first time out they wound up with damaged panels and had to start from scratch. This is what we want to avoid. If we can learn how to operate the equipment correctly, we can continue to use the facility for several years without having to worry about replacing panels," stated Boyack.
The burn room will allow fire crews to create virtually any type of situation they desire. The large room has several entrances including the obvious, a door and several windows which will allow fire fighters to enter through many different directions.
The fires which the crews will build inside the room will be created in various ways. Boyack along with Wellington Fire Chief Scott Rowley explained that the agencies will likely find material such as stoves and furnaces at the dump. They will bring the objects to the tower where they can ignite a fire and create a real life situation for the crews to battle.
Aside from the large burn room, the local fire tower also hosts a smaller room which will only allow crews to burn objects at a maximum of 600 degrees Fahrenheit.
The room will operate the same as the larger room however, the location of the small burn area is located on the second floor of the building.
The smaller room is situated to simulate basement fire conditions. Combined with the larger burn room, the facility will offer local fire fighters the chance to train under most conditions which are present in the Carbon County area.
Aside from flames, the tower is also capable of producing real smoke which is non-toxic and no fire is needed to produce such a scenario.
Smoke can be sent throughout the structure to allow fire crews to participate in real life rescues. Because the smoke is non-toxic, humans can be placed in the room and fire fighters can find their way to the patient for a rescue exercise.
An upper level room in the tower simulates an attic. Fire crews can use tools like axes to ventilate the room, chop holes in what would be the floor of the attic and lower themselves to the surface of the simulated structure fire. This will give crews the opportunity to work hand-on with equipment actually used at a real fire scene.
The attic room is accessible from the roof of the fire tower, where crews can enter the structure using fire fighting gear.
The tower is equipped with a small balcony and a larger deck located at the top of the large structure. According to Rowley, this allows crews to rappel down the side of the building as well as lower an actual patient to the ground from up above the structures base.
Large metal stairs give crews access to each level of the building. These stairs also play a crucial role in the training. They will allow crews to work with various access conditions to virtually any sort of building structure in existence in Carbon County.
Although the primary goal of fire officials and county commissioners was to create a practice facility for local rescue crews, the structure also allows Carbon County residents an escape from high insurance costs.
"After finding out that local residents pay a higher premium for house insurance because fire crews have no facility to practice in, we decided that this fire tower would serve a dual purpose. If we can pass on a savings to the citizens, as well as provide better service, I think that this project is well worth the cost," explained the Price fire chief.
The amount for the structure came to nearly $300,000, but it did not cost the county any out of pocket expense. In fact, the money for the tower was part of a grant which was awarded to the county for the building of the structure.
Although the building is now complete, electricity is not yet hooked up to the structure.
"We don't plan on using the burn rooms until we have had proper training on how to operate them. Therefore, we don't expect to have the tower up and running at its full capacity until this spring when building crews fly down to train us on operating the equipment," stated Boyack.
With what was once a dream for Carbon County fire crews and government officials has now become a reality. And within the next few months, residents will soon feel the positive outcome of building a facility which will allow fire fighters to train under actual conditions.

Home ⋅ Unique Baby Shower Invitations ⋅ Girl Baby Shower Invitations ⋅ Laura's Picks ⋅ Designs on the Back ⋅ Pink
"This is a perfect way to personalize the Baby Wish Cards with your future baby's name, etc. I was also able to include a pic of the sonogram on back and also include a pic of the parents. It's so sweet!"
"LOVED that they had this design since we're having a girl, AND it's my Birthday on Superbowl Sunday this 2014 year! HOWEVER....I ordered 50 and they only sent 40 envelopes....so of course, I find out now when I've got 40 ready to mail out and now I need 10 more envelopes. I didn't notice initially that they offered a rectangular design option (to save on stamps since the square design costs $0.66 to send). Overall, I am happy with my design and purchase."
"This is a perfect card for a Fall Shower for a baby girl. With my shower being the week of Thanksgiving, it just didn't seem right to have a bright pink "Springy" invitation. The quality is excellent, and the delivery was very fast (estimated to arrive on a Friday or the following Monday and actually arrived the previous Tuesday). (I am pretty traditional so I altered the text and used capitalization - lol.) I would definitely recommend this card for the Fall season, and I will absolutely use Tiny Prints again."
"The Sweet Autumn theme was PERFECT for the baby shower I was hosting. No other provider offered fall themed baby shower paper products. Tiny Prints even printed the envelopes and mailed them for me! What a relief to not have to complete a second step with the invitations that would have taken even more of my time that I did not have! The card stock used was the perfect weight and color. The day the invitations were received in the mail by guests, the mother to be received multiple text messages saying how amazing the invites were. My favorite part of the invitation, other than the design on the front was the continuous design on the back of the invitation. This made it so special and personal. PLUS I was able to add a baby picture of the Mother and Father to be! Fantastic results from TinyPrints.com will use again!"
"this card was easy to put together, easy to find on internet, easy to decide script, and most important of all it came to my front door in just a few days. Much faster than they promised. Thank you --we love the cards. Nannie"

Comments about Berklee Press Accelerate Your Guitar Playing (DVD):
This DVD is ok. But only ok. It has decent quality, but I got bored quickly with it. There are some good tips that are presented in it, but once you learn these tips (and I mean it's general stuff like "Use a metronome at half speed to get the feel of a snare drum beat on 2 and 4 of a 4/4 beat" kind of tips) I found this DVD rather useless. Of course, if you are a beginner, this DVD will be a challenge and may be a good purchase, but anyone past that... This is a no-go zone.

Operators at Three Mile Island Generating Station took the unit offline today to make repairs to a heater element on the plant's pressurizer tank.
Londonderry Township - Operators at Three Mile Island Generating Station took the unit offline today to make repairs to a heater element on the plant's pressurizer tank. The repairs can only be done with the unit offline. TMI will return to service after the repairs, inspections and testing on the heater element are complete.
During the shutdown steam was released into the atmosphere, creating a loud noise heard by nearby residents.
"We are always closely monitoring plant systems and equipment as part of our daily operations," said Rick Libra, TMI Site Vice President. "This maintenance work will help ensure that Three Mile Island operates safely and reliably for the long-term."
Three Mile Island is located about 12 miles south of Harrisburg, Pa. The plant generates 852 megawatts of carbon free power - enough electricity for about 800,000 homes. Electric customers were not affected by the plant being off line.
Exelon Corporation (NYSE:EXC) is the nation's leading competitive energy provider, with approximately $33 billion in annual revenues. Headquartered in Chicago, Exelon has operations and business activities in 47 states, the District of Columbia and Canada.

by ProfessorDollar99 November 20, 2003
Goomba is the phonetic spelling of the term "cumpà", which is the way people from Southern Italy used to pronounce the word "compare", that is "godfather". From the original sense it was gradually extended to mean a friend, a partner, etc.
hey, goomba, what about a glass of wine?
by Francesco from Italy October 01, 2006
Derived from Italian, meaning close friend, or accomplice, mentor. Actually spelled Goombah.
He was a goombah to me.
by Goom-ba November 03, 2003
Taken from an Italian word meaning friend, the word is mostly used today as insulting term for Italian-Americans. By calling someone a Goomba, you are implying that they have ties to the mafia.

The three allegedly took various items such as propane tanks, gas cans, returnable bottles and cans and some articles of clothing from Lisbon, Madrid, Waddington, Louisville and Chase Mills between October and January.
All three were arraigned in Waddington Town Court and sent to St. Lawrence County jail, Canton, on $10,000 cash bail or $20,000 bond.
State police said they think the trio may have been involved in other thefts. Anyone in the towns where the alleged burglaries occurred who thinks they might have been victimized or has information about the crimes is asked to contact state police in Massena at 769-8406.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is "on the mend" and working from home, the State Department's spokeswoman said Tuesday.
Clinton had been recovering from a bout of stomach flu last week when she fainted and ended up with a concussion. Clinton informed the Senate Foreign Relations and House Foreign Affairs committees this weekend that she would be unable to testify at upcoming hearings about the deadly events in Benghazi, Libya, at the advice of her doctors. In her place, deputies Thomas Nides and Bill Burns will testify on Thursday.
Clinton was finishing her cover letter to Congress to accompany the independent Benghazi review that was just completed, as she recuperates at home from her concussion injury and stomach virus, spokeswoman Victoria Nuland told reporters.
The classified version of the independent review is being sent to Congress Tuesday afternoon, and an unclassified version could be released for public consumption as early as Wednesday, the same day that former Ambassador Thomas Pickering and former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Adm. Mike Mullen, who led the review, brief congressional committees about their findings.
Nuland said that it was "completely untrue" that Clinton was using her illness to avoid testifying this week about Benghazi, allegations made in the New York Post opinion page and on Fox News by former U.N. Ambassador John Bolton.
"She's going to be absolutely fine. She is working at home," Nuland said. "She's been on the phone and in e-mail contact with senior staff. She's been working on other issues - Syria, the DPRK [North Korea] today. These are people that don't know what they are talking about."
In a statement from Clinton's doctors released over the weekend, Clinton was told to "rest and avoid any strenuous activity." The doctors said the "strongly advised her to cancel all work events for the coming week."
Typically, a concussion will lead to doctors' ordering "brain rest," said Dr. Sanjay Gupta, CNN's chief medical correspondent.
"You almost want to give the brain rest as well. Doctors will literally say don't read anything, don't watch television, don't get on a computer. You really want to put the brain to rest for a while to allow the brain to recover from a concussion," Gupta said. "The best way to get recovery, full recovery, from a concussion is to really not do anything."
Gupta said the fact Clinton is at home, and not the in the hospital, suggests the nature of the injury may not be too severe.
"I think they obviously would have a low threshold for having her in the hospital. In this case, she's not. So I think the antenna is lowered here," Gupta explained over the weekend.
Gupta, a neurosurgeon, guessed that recovery would take about a week, though he was not privy to her specific case.
"What you want to do is you slowly reintroduce activity, you know, allow someone to start reading, maybe engaging in some exercise, and seeing if any of those symptoms come back. If they come back, then, you're sort of back on rest again. So, it can be back and forth for a little bit. My guess is a week. That's typical with a mild concussion," he said.
Nuland said Tuesday that Clinton's doctors "and all the people close to her are trying to encourage her to take the time she needs to be well."
In a letter to the Senate and House foreign affairs committees, Clinton said she "looks forward to continuing to engage them in January, and she will be open to whatever they consider appropriate in that regard," Nuland said earlier this week.
Influenza (flu), on the other hand, is a viral infection that mimics a cold except that it starts forcefully with symptoms of fatigue, fever, and respiratory congestion. While more than 100 different virus types can cause a common cold, only influenza virus types A, B, and C cause flu. More severe cases of influenza can lead to life-threatening illnesses such as pneumonia.*,...

Although concussions usually are caused by a blow to the head, they can also occur when the head and upper body are violently shaken. These injuries can cause a loss of consciousness, but most concussions do not. Because of this, some people have concussions and don't realize it. ,....`

A state Supreme Court judge Thursday ordered a Watertown business to temporarily stop selling allegedly mislabeled products that the state attorney general claims are synthetic drugs.
Judge James P. McClusky issued a temporary restraining order against Tebbs Headshop, 144 Eastern Blvd., which was sued Wednesday by Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman for allegedly selling products that are in violation of the states product labeling laws.
The attorney generals actions are part of a statewide crackdown on the sale of products that mimic the intoxicating effect of controlled substances, but are marketed as being for other uses, such as glass cleaner. The attorney general claims Tebbs, which is part of an eight-store chain owned by John E. Tebbets III, Rome, has reformatted and remarketed bath salts as glass cleaner. Bath salts have been known to cause consumers to exhibit paranoia and display violent tendencies, including extraordinary strength and immunity to pain.
The lawsuit also seeks to stop the sale of canisters of nitrous oxide, of which sales to the public are banned under state Public Health Law. If inhaled, the contents can cause intoxication and have been linked to several deaths by asphyxiation, as well as other adverse health effects.
In issuing a restraining order, Judge McClusky stated that the attorney general had demonstrated that sales of mislabeled products have caused and will continue to cause immediate and irreparable injury to members of the public unless Tebbs stops selling the items pending a show cause hearing scheduled for Aug. 23. At the hearing, Tebbs will be given the opportunity to argue why it should be allowed to continue to sell the disputed products. Judge McClusky also ordered the business to stop selling nitrous oxide without first obtaining an exemption from the state Department of Health.
The judge further ordered Tebbs to provide an accounting of all commodities its has sold or offered for sale from Jan. 1 to Wednesday, the name of the product, the manufacturer or distributor, a description of the product, its retail price and the number of units sold.
The attorney general previously filed lawsuits against 16 head shops across the state, including Trip on the Wild Side, 671 Mill St., which also has been ordered temporarily to stop selling any mislabeled products.
All of the cases statewide are being prosecuted by Deanna R. Nelson, assistant attorney general in charge of the Watertown regional office, and Gary S. Brown, assistant attorney general in charge of the Westchester office, along with Judith C. Malkin, assistant attorney general in the Syracuse office, under the supervision of Martin J. Mack, executive attorney general for regional offices.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — The way Brian Belski sees it, 2013 is your lucky number.
The chief investment strategist at BMO Capital Markets says the coming year will be a winner for U.S. stocks, and likely with better performance than most investors expect.
The fiscal deal business will accept
Business leaders are increasingly nervous about the fiscal-cliff talks, but Maya MacGuineas of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget reveals what the private sector wants to see.
Yet Wall Street has priced in the worst-case scenario for the economy, he explains. With expectations so low, he adds, even the slightest upside surprise can propel prices higher. Belski's sees the S&P 500 Index SPX, -0.68% closing out 2013 at 1,575 — a respectable, above-average 11% gain from Friday's close.
So if you are dumping dividend-paying growth stocks in the expectation of higher income taxes; if you don't believe that shares of quality companies with strong finances will lead the market; and if industrial, energy and technology stocks seem overvalued, Belski has clients who would be glad to relieve you of your burden.
"Stocks provide consistent and quality earnings that investors will pay for," Belski says. "The next secular trend for equities is multiple expansion."
In other words, the elevator is going up. Favor stocks over bonds and buy when others are skeptical, Belski recommends. Here's where he's advising investors to put money now:
1. Dip into dividend growth
Investors are making a "big mistake" selling dividend stocks, according to Belski.
A predictable stock dividend that increases over time isn't a substitute for a bond. But Belski notes these cash-rich stocks are a good way for investors to get more comfortable with the market as they transition out of bonds, he says.
"The credibility provided to investors by companies that consistently grow dividends is an important psychological positive for those that have lost trust in stocks and turned to bonds," Belski wrote in a recent BMO research report.
Favorite stocks on BMO's dividend-growth list include "outperform"-rated Automatic Data Processing Inc. ADP, -0.61% Dover Corp. DOV, -0.90% and Illinois Tool Works Inc. ITW, -1.23%
2. Queue up for quality
Many dividend-payers are also considered "quality" growth stocks. A quality company typically boasts a strong balance sheet and posts consistent earnings. Such firms have a competitive advantage and often enjoy a large global footprint.
This stability appeals to certain investors, who don't mind paying a premium price for stocks that can cushion their ride down Wall Street.
Stocks passing BMO's quality-growth screen and rated "outperform" include Apple Inc. AAPL, +0.17% Gap Inc. GPS, -0.48% Starbucks Corp. SBUX, -0.63% and Google Inc. GOOG, +0.87%
3. Lift a megacap and midcap barbell
If enthusiasm for stocks strikes you as misguided or flat-out wrong, Belski understands your position. Still, he would encourage investors not to get overly entrenched in that view lest they miss out on most of the next year's gains.

About Southern Africa Regional
While Southern Africa has seen significant economic growth achievements, the overall number of people living in poverty has grown over the past two decades. Botswana, Lesotho, Namibia, and South Africa have some of the highest levels of income inequality in the world. Since 1995, we have maintained a regional program in Southern Africa that has evolved over time to address the changing development challenges of the sub-region. Our programs increase trade and strengthen regional economic ties, address the HIV/AIDS crisis, mitigate food insecurity, and support democratic processes. Our regional program is headquartered in Pretoria, South Africa, and complements country-specific programs by addressing cross-border issues and common development needs.

Those of you who don't get around much in the world of cyberpolitics might be surprised to learn that Gov. Lincoln Chafee has his very own channel on YouTube.
You can click on to YouTube and then search for either "Rhodeislandgovernor" or "Governor Lincoln Chafee" and you can get a list of a whole bunch of videos that either the governor's office made, or that show some of his TV appearances or speeches at various public events.
Another of the ones made by his office came out last week — it's about his legislative package to assist cities and towns with their pension problems and other financial pressures — and, like several of the others, it raises a question about where the line is between creative use of the media to promote the governor's policy and legislative agenda and use of public funds by the governor's office to make what look, sound and smell like campaign advertisements to promote the governor's political aspirations.
Christine Hunsinger, Chafee's press secretary, told me it is definitely the former. She says "the media is changing with Twitter and Facebook and YouTube" one of the folks in the press office is adept at putting these things together. She insists that there is "definite legislative content" and that there is nothing in the two-minute spot that tells the viewer to take any sort of campaign-like activity such as saying "vote for…" or anything like that. It also refers viewers to the governor's official website (where the video can also be found) to find out more about the specifics of the legislative package and it encourages them to "Call your legislator and urge support for Gov. Chafee's entire municipal package."
Yeah, but…
It still has a campaign ad feel to it.
Instead of the big, booming announcer voice that sounds like it comes from a disaster movie trailer, it opens with none other than the Democratic lieutenant governor, Elizabeth Roberts, telling us that "this governor has reached out across a lot of our traditional boundaries, across party lines, across branches of government, and also, from the Statehouse, reaching out to cities and towns." There are TV news clips describing some of Chafee's work with city and town mayors and clips from newspapers and blogs touting the governor's initiatives.
The first one of these videos I recall was released a year ago, with the governor standing by himself in the echo-y third floor of the Statehouse talking about his budget, the one the General Assembly all but disregarded after they pulled out the lynchpin — his plan to expand and lower the state sales tax. In that video, by the way, Chafee mentioned all the spending he wanted to do — more aid to education, more for cities and towns, more money to transportation infrastructure, but he apparently ran out of time before he could explain how he wanted to pay for all that with new taxes on a lot more goods and services.
So if public money isn't being used to make campaign commercials, it is at the very least being used to spread pro-Chafee propaganda.
These spots can't be very expensive to produce and must cost almost nothing to distribute; you'd think such modest cost could be covered with campaign dollars. I'm sure that fight is going to be fought once the 2014 campaign begins in earnest.
Speaking of the 2014 campaign: You might have heard that the governor, a Republican turned Independent, officially endorsed Democratic Congressman David Cicilline in his re-election bid this November. (It's kinda touching that the guy who got a 22 percent approval rating in February's Brown University poll is lending a helping hand to the guy who got an approval of just under 15 percent.)
You may also recall that, when Vice President Joseph Biden was in Rhode Island in February for a fundraiser for Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, Chafee was there and he gave his endorsement to the Democratic senator.
Remember that obnoxious song, "Things That Make You Go Hmmm"?
Hmmm, could our Independent governor be sniffing around to run as a Democrat next time around?
Say Treasurer Gina Raimondo runs for governor like the whole world expects her to and former State Auditor Ernest Almonte tosses his green eyeshade into the ring as well (although Almonte says he doesn't know whether he would run as a Republican, Democrat or Independent). They could split the moderate-to-conservative Democratic vote (a less kind commentator might call it the DINO — Democrat in Name Only — vote) and liberal Democrats might have nowhere to turn but Chafee.
Then again, if a moderate or conservative Democrat like Raimondo or Almonte were to win the party nomination, like Frank Caprio did in 2010, that would give Chafee a second opportunity to run to the left as an Independent and squeak out another 36 percent victory.
But let's let this November's election happen before we start worrying about that.
When I was younger and spent money on something foolish, my mother would shake her head and say, "you always have money for what you want to have money for."
I thought of that once again when I heard that the taxpayers are going to pony up $300,000 toward the salary of the new URI men's basketball coach, Dan Hurley. He's going to get paid more than that, of course, but the $300K is what is coming from the university's till, which is filled with tax dollars and student tuitions, among other things.
The university is strained to the limit, we are told, when student tuitions just have to be raised. There is no other choice.
We are constantly told the state has no money — cities and towns are going bankrupt, you can't drive trucks on Route 95 through Pawtucket, on many of our streets there is more pothole than there is roadway, programs for people with developmental disabilities are cut to the bone — but we've got us a multi-million-dollar basketball coach.
You always have money for what you want to have money for.
What would be better for the state, a $300,000-a year star to take care of children and adults with developmental disabilities, or one to coach the basketball team.
Would it be better to have a $300,000 a year pro as commissioner of elementary and secondary education, mapping out strategies for our schools and teachers to turn out better educated students, or one to draw Xs and Os on a blackboard to get URI into the A-10 tourney? Really, which do you consider more important?
To how many other good uses could $4 million over six years be put? How many scholarships could be given to deserving but needy students, even the ones who can't dribble or sink treys?
You always have money for what you want to have money for.
I know, I know, this isn't unique to URI and tons of schools overpay their basketball coaches, and don't even get me started on football. But if all those schools jumped off a bridge, should URI do the same?
Not only that, but URI canned their previous coach in the middle of his contract and are paying him $1.5 million to go away, although they say none of that money is coming from taxpayer funds. I remember decrying the former coach's salary as well, although I secretly wished that once — just once — our paychecks would get switched in the mail. (By the way, if URI wants me to go away, I can be contacted through this newspaper. Call me.)

What is a sinus infection?
A sinus infection occurs when a pathogenic microorganism (virus, bacterium, or a fungus) grows within a sinus and causes intermittent blockage of the sinus ostium. Drainage of mucus and pus often occur when the blockage is relieved. The drainage usually goes from the nasal passages to the throat or out the nostrils. Such infections also cause inflammation (an influx of immune cells and swelling of the sinus tissue) of one or more sinuses. This can to block the openings of the sinuses and leads to discomfort.
Inflammation of the air cavities within the passages of the nose (paranasal sinuses) is referred to as sinusitis. Sinusitis can be caused by infection, but can also be caused by allergy and irritation of the sinuses.
Sinusitis is one of the more common conditions that can afflict people throughout their lives. Sinusitis commonly occurs when environmental pollens irritate the nasal passages, such as with hay fever. Sinusitis can also result from irritants, such as chemicals or the use and/or abuse of over-the-counter (OTC) nasal sprays, and illegal substances that may be snorted through the nose. About 30 million adults have "sinusitis." Continue Reading

CREATED Apr 11, 2012
Reporter: Kevin Keen
TUCSON (KGUN9-TV) - It's a common crime costing Southern Arizona homeowners, businesses and taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages every year. The culprits often get away scot free and move on the next victims. But that wasn't the case for two men Monday night.
The crooks crept along behind a vacant east side shopping center near Broadway and Wilmot. Under the cover of midnight, they went to work, cutting the security fence, cracking open electrical boxes and conduits, and ripping out copper wiring.
That is, until their cover was blown.
"This was a citizen who was alert and noticed that something wasn't right and called us," Lt. Decio Hopffer told 9 On Your Side.
Tucson police moved in, practically catching the thieves red-handed.
"What about the circumstances made it clear that they were the culprits?" reporter Kevin Keen asked the lieutenant. "It was pretty obvious based on what they had in the trucks," Hopffer replied, explaining there were several hundred pounds of insulated copper wiring inside.
Officers arrested 39-year-old Sean Heinemann and 33-year-old Thomas Boscia for burglary and having burglary tools like pry bars and wire insulation strippers.
TPD said catching copper thieves in the act is rare. The crime is very common, but it's difficult to witness and link suspects with what could be stolen copper or just wires and piping someone legitimately owns.
The department said officers are now receiving special training so they can recognize what could be stolen copper wiring, as well as the tools used to extract it. The hope is they'll be able to identify these crimes and catch crooks.
In this case, the department credits that concerned citizen who picked up the phone.
"We can't do that alone," Hopffer said. "Without their help, we won't be able to catch these folks in the act. They can be our eyes and ears."
If you see suspicious activity at a vacant home, business or elsewhere, police ask you call 9-1-1.

My husband had brain surgery performed by Dr. Zusman back in 1999. I cannot tell you the difference her care & the surgery has made in our lives. He has been 100% cured & has had no problems since & we truly feel it was due to being in the more-than-competent & brilliant care of Dr. Zusman. She is truly the BEST! She is passionate about what she does & truly cares for all her patients. She is one of the nations leaders in bringing a cure for epilepsy. She treats not only the patient with utmost respect but also the entire family. You will be in most excellent hands with Dr. Zusman.

I underwent brain surgery with Dr.Zusman on May 12 2003. She and her team at UCD Med Center cured me 100% from Epilepsy. She is indeed a Brilliant Brain Surgeon and very caring towards her patients. Thank you, Mr Lewis, your English Patient.

I am a former patient, and have become a big advocate of Dr. Edie E. Zusman. Dr. Zusman is by far one of the most amazing, caring, compassionate, and skilled neurosurgeons in the Sacramento Area. She is renown internationally for her work in epilpey research and surgery, as well as brain tumor research and surgery. I've seen some incredible results due to her expertise; she will not give up until her patients have recieved the absolute best in casr. She is Director of Adult Neurosurgery at the Sutter Neuroscience Institute, but is also an Adjunct Assistant Professor at UCDavis - which is quite a feat considering these two organizations are basically arch rivals. She avoids the politics between the organizations and maintains her patients care as her only goal. If you need a specilist in epilepsy or brain tumor surgery, she's the best!

Using garden waste can reduce the flow of green material sent to the landfill, improve the soil and increase the health of most plants. Try these ideas before sending yard waste to the dump.
Grasscycle. The easiest way to reduce yard waste is to leave the grass clippings on the grass and not bag them. It is a great way to return nutrients and material to the soil. If the water requirements of the lawn and cuts mowing time significantly. Grasscycling does not increase the thatch layer and can be very beneficial to the soil.
Use grass clippings as a mulch. Save grass clippings for your vegetable or flower garden. Later the clippings can be worked into the soil, which improves tilth and workability. However, they should be dried before being used as mulch. Do not pile wet, fresh clippings more than an inch deep at a time or they will turn into a stinky, sticky mess.
Shred leaves. Shredded leaves in the fall can be used as a mulch around trees, shrubs and perennials. By spring, the leaves decompose and add precious organic matter to the soil. Leaves can be shredded by running over them with a lawn mower. This is usually easier that raking them up, even though it makes a lousy leaf pile for jumping.
Work leaves into growing areas. If the leaves are shredded first they are easier to rototill, but shredding is not required. Adding nitrogen to the area will speed decomposition.
Use evergreen needles for mulch or a soil amendment. They will acidify Utah's alkali soils while increasing the organic content. Conifer needles break down slowly, but still improve the soil over the long run.
Shred dead annuals. After they are shredded, they can be worked into the garden or flower beds. The lawn mower works well for this, too. Be careful of annuals that reseed, though. They can become weeds in a garden. These include marigolds, snapdragons, Cosmos, calendula and alyssum.
Compost. The most productive method is to build a compost pile and compost all garden, yard and non-meat kitchen waste. Composting is a lot easier than most people believe and, if done correctly, has no unpleasant odor. Compost is the best soil amendment, improving the tilth, workability, drainage and nutrient holding capacity.

All these years Christians have misunderstood the true meaning of the gospels. I have discovered this revelation http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/electronic-publications/stay-free/5/jesus.htm
Simpson spotted the face of Christ in the advertisement immediately after praying for a divine sign. She couldn't decide whether to stay in the church choir or quit and sing professionally. The shadowy image of Jesus' face in strands of spaghetti hanging from a fork meant she should stay with the choir.
Suddenly it all all makes sense, Jesus was sent by the FSM. Why were so many of his disciples fishermen. A Euphemism for Pirates surly, the "I will make you fishers of men" clearly indicates that they were to be a pirate band.
The message of the last supper "drink this" and "eat this" together with "love thy neighbour" is surely the true gospel message. It is clearly inspired by the FSM.

SKOWHEGAN, Maine (NEWS CENTER) - A Maine judge has found a Skowhegan man guilty of murder in a drug-related fatal shooting more than three years ago. After two weeks of reviewing the evidence, Justice John Nivison delivered his verdict Tuesday morning in Somerset County Superior Court in Skowhegan.
Justice Nivison said, "The defendant had the opportunity, the means, and the motive to kill Mr. Cameron...I find the defendant guilty of knowing and intentional murder."
The victim, Everett Cameron, had family members in the courtroom when the judge made his decision and they could not hide their relief or hold back their tears.
Everett Cameron's daughter Nicole Sacre said, "[Nelson] will remain behind bars where he belongs. We are very grateful for this verdict and the closure that this will bring to our family."
Nelson was charged with killing 60-year-old Everett Cameron in his pickup truck on Oct. 31, 2009.
Nelson waived his right to a jury trial. He testified that he met Cameron that day but didn't shoot him. He said he met Cameron to tell him he couldn't repay money he owed him for prescription drugs that Cameron had sold him.
Prosecutors said Nelson was buying painkillers that Cameron was taking for treatment of lymphoma.
The case was based mostly on circumstantial evidence and caused a challenge to the state. Assistant Attorney General Leane Zania said, "We had no eyewitnesses of the shooting of Mr. Cameron. So the state had to put all the pieces together and present all those people to the court. And the court had to make a determination upon that circumstantial evidence whether or not the defendant was guilty."
It was Nelson's own testimony and discussions with police that swayed the judge to think he was not a reliable witness.
Judge Nivison announced to the court, "He initially told law enforcement that he did not use drugs which was untrue. He initially told law enforcement that Cameron loaned him the money. This was not true. He told law enforcement that he did not know Mr. Cameron was dead, this was not true."
Cameron's family, although relieved with the verdict, continue to piece their lives back together.
Cameron's son Everett J. Cameron, Sr. said, "My father was a very good man...everything was taken from my life, my father was my best friend...At least I know now he can rest in peace."
Nelson still has the right to appeal the verdict. The judge did not set a sentence date.
The Associated Press contributed to this story.

Roasted Garlic Spoonbread Slow Cooker Recipe
Adam barbecued on Saturday (because it would be un-American to not barbecue during Memorial Day weekend!), and I played around with a spoonbread recipe I was given and made a really savory and delicious side dish in the crockpot.
There's a LOT Of garlic in here---enough to ward off a pack of vampires.
The Ingredients.
serves 4-6
3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 cups milk
2 tablespoons melted butter
4 eggs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (I used the stuff in the can)
1 head garlic, cloves peeled but intact (about 15 cloves)
The Directions.
Use a 2-quart slow cooker (1.5 quarts is fine, just cook a bit longer---I used one of the sections of the crockpot trio).
In a large mixing bowl, combine cornmeal, sugar, pepper, milk, melted butter, and eggs until you've got a nice batter. No need to use a mixer---just whisk it together until there aren't any big lumps. Stir in Parmesan cheese and garlic cloves. Pour the batter into a greased slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 4 to 5 hours, or on high for 2 to 3. Your spoonbread is finished when the center is set and an inserted skewer comes out clean.
We had ours alongside salmon patties (frozen, from Costco--no filler, totally gluten free, yay!) Adam barbecued. It'd pair nicely with roasted chicken or pork chops, too.
The Verdict.
The garlic roasts inside the cornbread, creating a moist and savory side dish. The girls picked the garlic out (they were huge cloves, and a bit much for them), but ate all the cornbread. I liked the tiny hint of spice from the cayenne. I sprinkled paprika on for the picture. In retrospect, I should have used smoked paprika---it would have added a nice hint of smokiness.
super good.
On a side note:
I wrote an article on Village of Moms about Slow Cooker freezer meals and TV Dinners.
also, the $125 Visa Gift Card is still up for grabs over on my review blog. I'd love to get some more comments/entries. The more entries, the more likely bigger and better stuff comes my way to share with you!
and, I'm thinking of doing a summer book club, if you're interested. At first I thought I could swing a book a month (3 books), but I think that's too much. Maybe 2--and discuss on twitter in mid-July and then the end of August? I'm not sure---just thinking/typing out loud...
if you have any ideas for good books, I'd love to hear them!
only 8 more days of school!!

Ya know, I was planning on making chili with oven baked fries tonight but I may have to make chili and this instead because that sounds way too good to not make....

I just read The Help and it was GREAT! It's what I was going to suggest. It's what we're doing for our June book club book. Author is Kathryn Stockett.

I only have a 3 (or is it 4?) quart slow cooker. Will that work for this?
- June 2, 2010 at 2:00 PM
- Stephanie O'Dea said...
ooh, I'll look into The Help.
Vicky, yes, it'll cook just fine in a 3-4 quart, but will cook faster.
Keep an eye on it after a few hours.

I read the Help. it was good. I would suggest the Hunger Games series, though. we could read book 1(the Hunger Games) and 2 (Catching Fire). the 3rd and last book (Mockingjay) comes out mid August, so everyone would be ready to go!

I'm definitely going to try this (I love garlic!) but maybe with a few ingredient variations. One thing I'd suggest is not using fat free milk for anything. It's a fake food, and besides, healthy fats are good for us! Fats are especially needed for our kids' brains to grow right. :) Sorry to get going, that's just a little pet-peeve of mine!

There is a new book that sounds interesting that I am hoping to pick up this week. "The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake". Its supposedly about a young girl who discovers that she can feel the emotions of a person through tasting the food that they have made.

Do you know how to convert this to make in a dutch oven? I know this is a slow-cooker blog, but this recipe sounds great (especially for my brother-in-law who is gluten intolerant), and we're supposed to bring something to a dutch oven dinner-- I'm always on the lookout for good GF bread recipes.

Spoonbread is always a favorite. I swear one restaurant near here stays open just because of its spoonbread! I've never seen such savory spoonbread though--love the garlic aspect. I'll use coconut milk and maybe some almond flour in place of the Parmesan. It will be different, but I bet it will be good. :-)
I agree that The Help is excellent!
Thanks, Steph!

I just tried this, and have one question -- should it separate? There was a really dense layer of cornmealbread at the bottom, and then a layer of egg/milk mixture at the top. It was cooked - skewer came out nice and clean, and the garlic was yummy.
I think my two teenagers at a total of 1 tsp of it.
- June 3, 2010 at 10:44 AM
- Stephanie O'Dea said...
Hi Carolyn--I think what you describe is what differentiates cornbread from spoonbread.
LOL on the teenagers!

Just noticed Kelly's comment up there about the fat free milk...I, too, noticed that you always use low-fat or fat-free milk in your book (which I LOVE, by the way!). I usually substitute whole milk since this is what we use (I agree with Kelly on the good fats for kids' brains, and all 4 of my kids are slim, so no weight issues to be concerned with). The recipes have all turned out fine with the substitution.
Thank you for all of your great recipes! And this looks like another yummy one...
- June 3, 2010 at 12:03 PM
- Shadocat42 said...
I just tried this for dinner and had the same results as Carolyn. There was an egg layer on top and a corn meal layer on the bottom. We tried to it eat but we had to pitch the entire thing because no one would touch it. Not sure what went wrong!

I really enjoy your blog, but I have a tip to any adventurers out there: cutting this recipe in half and using the Little Dipper doesn't work. :( I'll have to try it the real way another day.
- June 4, 2010 at 8:35 PM
I've been reading "Little Bee." It's from the perspective of two different women. Very engaging.
I also recently finished "my name is nujood, aged 10 & divorced." It's based on a true story.

Hi Stephanie,
I just bought your book...I know, better late than never, tho, right? I went through the book and marked all the recipes I want to try and let's just say that I hope my crockpot is up to it! Wednesday is my grocery day and then let the fun begin!
- June 6, 2010 at 2:46 AM
Ugggggggggh I'm with shaocat and Carolyn, I tried it today and it sepparated into 2 layers. Not very yummy.
- June 7, 2010 at 1:57 PM
Made this twice over the weekend: delish.
I wonder if one of the problems with separation is if the crock is too big or not sealing properly? My crockneeds a layer of foil to seal properly, and then the bread is super moist and pudding-like. Just like my grandfather used to make it.
- June 7, 2010 at 3:05 PM
- Victoria Blisse said...
So is this meant to seperate then? Mine did into an eggy omlete with roasted garlic in it and a thick polenta type layer. My daughter and hubs wouldn't touch it but I had a go at the cornmeal bit and it was fairly nice. If this *is* how spoonbread is meant to come out I think it might be a bit too different for my British tastebuds!
- June 17, 2010 at 9:09 AM
After reading other recipes for spoonbread, I wonder if the recipe needs additional steps to prevent the layering everyone mentioned.
1. "Pre-heat" the slow cooker on high while completing step 2.
2. Mix the liquid & corn meal & cook on top of the stove. Bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes stirring/wisking continually. Then, wisk all remaining items and the pre-cooked mixture together.
3. Pour into slow cooker & cook according to the current recipe.
I will try this tomorrow & post back.

When I mixed everything together, I could definitely see the split that everyone has been talking about. I tried blending it with a hand mixer and it was still split.
I tried the above comment from Anonymous - cooking it on the stove for 5 minutes. Good news - it combined! When I poured it in the slow cooker, there wasn't a layer of corn meal on the bottom. The only problem was, it turned out dense as mud! :( I'm trying it now and it's inedible.
If anyone else has tips, please let us know!
- October 31, 2010 at 2:01 PM
This was super easy and delish! I cut larger garlic cloves in half or quarters, which helped them get tender. The garlic infused the rest of the spoonbread with a gentle and lovely garlic flavor. I was glad for that because I was worried about it being too sweet, which wasn't a problem. I served it as a side dish with chili, but I ate it first because I didn't want the chili flavors to overpower the subtle goodness of the spoonbread. My kids ate it (at first with some skepticism), but we took out the chunks of garlic. It was also very tasty leftover for lunch the next day. I'll be making this again when I need some easy comfort food! Would be good as a side dish with roasted meat or a variety of roasted veggies.

Mine turned out fine but cooked very quickly. I didn't follow the recipe exactly, either. I don't have a mini cooker, so I used a 4-quart crockpot. I doubled the dry ingredients but not the wet ingredients. I used 2 cups of coconut milk (thinking that the higher fat content would be less likely to curdle or separate) and only 4 eggs (I thought 8 was way too many to put in the small amount of dry ingredients). I used Stephanie's wording of "nice batter" to guide my judgment of the mixture of ingredients. I did double the cheese and garlic. Yum! It could have used a little more wet stuff--either milk or egg or both. I also cooked it on high because I didn't want a slow cooking time to throw off the mixture, and I stirred it a few times also. It didn't separate at all, and it was a huge hit at our pig roast. This amount of batter in the 4-quart cooker filled it less than halfway, so I would have liked to have more bread, but I was happy with the results.

Did anyone figure out the separation issue and yield good results?
- July 19, 2013 at 9:44 AM
Recipe sounds delicious, but I do have one question before I try it: why do you leave the garlic cloves whole?
- July 1, 2015 at 3:00 PM
- Stephanie ODea said...
Hi anon, great question. You don't need to, but I like how they steam and roast right in the bread which mellows out the flavor substantially and creates a mushy garlicky surprise.
if you chop them up, the flavor is all there, but you don't get the differentiation with the texture.
I hope this helps a bit!!
