Claire Nezezon will turn 3 in August, but she has endured more hardship than any child should at her age.
At just two weeks old, Claire was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis a deadly disease that attacks the respiratory and digestive system, causing lung infections that lead to premature death.
She regularly receives nebulizer treatments, physical therapy and takes pills with pancreatic enzymes to help her digest foods. Other than her treatments, which can last three to four hours a day, Claire leads a pretty normal life, her mother, Jessica M. Nezezon said.
Shes young and very healthy, Mrs. Nezezon, Norwood, said. Older patients, teens and those in their 20s, they spend a large portion of their day doing their treatments. Thats something we are prepared to do in the future. Hopefully they will come out with some new drugs to make it easier for her. She is smart, beautiful and everybody loves her.
Because of her condition, germs can be especially dangerous to Claire. In order to build up her immunity, Claire regularly attends sports games in which her brother, Cory, 12, plays.
The Nezezon family will be one of many family teams across the county who will participate in the Central New York Chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundations annual Great Strides at the Dobisky Visitors Center, 100 Riverside Ave., Ogdensburg, May 18.
This is the third year the family has participated in Ogdensburgs annual Great Strides Walk to help raise money for improved treatments and a cure for CF.
Each year, Team Claire gets bigger and bigger, Mrs. Nezezon said. We have anywhere between 40 to 50 members participating in the walk this year. We have already met our $10,000 goal. We are so grateful to family-oriented companies and organizations in our community, like Brookfield Power, SeaComm in Potsdam and our colleges SUNY Potsdam and St. Lawrence University.
Earlier this month, in honor of Claire, St. Lawrence Universitys Center for Civic Engagement held Kick it for Claire at its Canton campus. Over 500 college students and community members raised over $6,000 for Great Strides in her honor. For every dollar raised, 90 cents go directly for new research for therapies, treatments and to help find a cure to a disease that directly affects nearly 30,000 adults and children in the U.S. and more than 70,000 people worldwide.
More than 10 million Americans are symptomless carriers of a defective CF gene, according to Jessica Moquin Development Director for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation for the Central New York Chapter.
A big part of fundraising, Mrs. Nezezon said, is bringing awareness to anyone who will listen. Until her daughter was diagnosed, Mrs. Nezezon admitted she had not heard much about CF.
I knew a student in elementary school who had it, Mrs. Nezezon said. I did a lot of research and met with multiple doctors. At first I was very scared, but we held out a lot of hope for a happy and healthy future for her.
Her doctors in Syracuse are hoping there will be a cure found in the next couple of years, she said. We want to try to do anything we can to help make that happen.
Registration will begin at 10 a.m. with the walk beginning at 11 a.m. Refreshments will be provided by Frito-Lay, McDonalds, Pepsi-Cola Ogdensburg Bottlers and Price Chopper.

|Lower level will be commercial, Boone Town Council says
|Written by Lauren Ohnesorge
|Friday, 11 May 2007 04:03
At last night's Boone Town Council and Boone Area Planning Commission's Quarterly meeting, the Council and Commission took steps to preserve the downtown business district.An ordinance was unanimously passed by the Council to require new buildings downtown to keep their lowest levels commercial in nature. The measure is part of an effort to keep downtown a shopping district, not fill it with apartment buildings. Mayor Loretta Clawson hopes the measure will help preserve downtown's integrity. Will lower level parking decks be affected? According to the Council, that is a separate issue for the Community Appearance Commission to deal with.

Once a month, the Simms/Mann–UCLA Center for Integrative Oncology presents Insights Into Cancer, a free public lecture series for cancer patients, their families and the community. Each lecture features a leading professional who provides up-to-date information, practical advice and answers to cancer-related questions. February 12, 2013Early Breast Cancer: Evolving Strategies in Multidisciplinary and Personalized Care
Breast cancer is not one disease, but many distinct subtypes affecting women of all ages, socioeconomic, cultural, and ethnic backgrounds. Thus, optimal care requires that therapy be tailored to the individual patient as well as to the specifics of her particular breast cancer. This lecture will discuss how the diagnosis and management of early breast cancer have evolved over recent years and will focus on the importance of a multidisciplinary, personalized approach in determining the best treatment strategy. Particular emphasis will be placed on how the treatment plan can be formulated specifically for the individual patient and integrated across medical specialties. Physicians from breast surgery, plastic surgery, medical oncology, radiation oncology, breast radiology and breast pathology will discuss advances in the diagnosis and treatment of early breast cancer in the context of their subspecialties. Panelists: Nova Foster M.D., Associate Clinical Professor of Surgery, Sara Hurvitz, M.D., Assistant Clinical Professor Hematology/Oncology, Susan McCloskey, M.D., M.S.H.S., Assistant Professor Radiation Oncology, Anne C. Hoyt, M.D., Professor Radiological Science, Nicole Dawson, M.D., Associate Clinical Professor of Pathology and Charles Tseng, M.D., Assistant Clinical Professor Plastics and Reconstructive Surgery.
Insights Into Cancer lectures are held in the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center Auditorium, B Level, Room B130, 757 Westwood Plaza, Los Angeles, CA 90095.
UCLA parking is $11 and is wheelchair accessible. Attendees can park in the medical plaza, or take advantage of the valet parking at the front of Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center.

Standardized Tests
The title of an article from December caught my eye, "Race to the Top" a short run to failure. But the subtitle piqued my interest, Obama's new education plan is inherently flawed in its ignorance of reality and the factors influencing the lackluster performance of our schools.
So, food for thought on standardized tests from the next generation:
As was the case with No Child Left Behind, the stated goals of Race to the Top sound like no-brainers, but it is in the implementation that this plan fails to fundamentally improve the education system.
Specifically, the continued emphasis on standardized tests is alarming, the large focus on charter schools is unfortunate and the proposals for dealing with failing schools are unnecessarily and ineffectively harsh and disturbingly oversimplified.
Unfortunately, we can't escape our unwarranted fixation on standardized tests as a method of evaluating students and teachers. I've written extensively about this in a previous column, so let me summarize:
"To expect a teacher to teach to a test is unreasonable because it expects the teacher to narrow his or her curriculum, rather than expand it, in the sense of depth rather than breadth of course. This ultimately does a disservice to students … To expect that students from all ranges of the spectrum of human experience can be measured by the same standards is highly ambitious and fairly absurd."
Read "Race to the Top" a short run to failure by Jesse Goldberg writing for the student newspaper The Lamaron. The author also critiques competition in education in this same piece.

Wadham College
Unquiet Flows the Don
October 05, 2009
Maurice Bowra: A Life By Leslie Mitchell (Oxford University Press, 385 pp., $50) As warden of Wadham College in Oxford, president of the British Academy, the author of well-known books on ancient Greek literature, and a conversationalist of legendary brilliance, Maurice Bowra seemed, in the middle of the last century, the very embodiment of Oxford life. Enjoying a huge international reputation as a scholar, a wit, and an administrator, he was duly elected into prestigious academies and awarded honorary degrees in both Europe and America. George VI knighted him in 1951.

Buzz: The Rangers Are On Justin Schultz's Short List [Update]
4:12PM: About an hour ago, Mark Spector tweeted that the Rangers were making their pitch to Justin Schultz.
Larry Brooks just tweeted that the Rangers have finished making their pitch.
11:17AM: Larry Brooks tweets "NYR apparently only US team invited to make presentation to Schultz. Badger connection, Tortorella willingness to give ice to kids, pluses"
11AM: Bob McKenzie confirms that the Rangers are on the list.
10:59AM: LeBrun tweets that Ottawa and Toronto are both on the list as well.
10:48AM: According to Pierre LeBrun at ESPN.com, the Rangers, Oilers and Canucks are believed to be on the short list of teams that Justin Schultz is interested in signing with.
LeBrun notes that the Red Wings and Bruins are not being considered.
Meetings between Schultz and the teams on his short list are believed to start today.
Oiler brass, along with head coach and Taylor Hall will be meeting with Justin Schultz and his reps at Newport later today.#TSN
— Ryan Rishaug (@TSNRyanRishaug) June 28, 2012
Adam Rotter: The Rangers have a couple of strengths in this case and they will need to sell them hard to get Schultz. Ryan McDonagh and Derek Stepan have to be key factors along with the Rangers recent history of putting college players into the lineup. It's hard to pick against playing at home in Vancouver or being on a power play with Jordan Eberle, Nail Yakupov, Taylor Hall and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins in Edmonton.

Features & Videos
How to Create a Setting
Our dichroic glass cabs are made from COE 90 glass and are quite easy to fire in place.
Youll need to first make a seat for the glass. Whatever your design, youll need to make sure the glass is trapped in place so it cannot fall out of its setting after firing. During firing, the clay will shrink around the gem and trap it in place. One way to do this is to place the glass on the wet clay and trace around it with a needle tool, then remove the excess clay below the cab and set the cab in the resulting hole. When you cut out around the cab, hold the needle tool straight up and down so you have a little extra space around it to account for shrinkage of the clay. By giving a little extra space, youll relieve the stress that can break the glass or tear the metal clay as it shrinks.
Depending on the size of the cab and the thickness of the clay, this may be all you need. However, if you cab is large, or to add visual interest, you might want to add a rope of clay or syringe around the stone to form a bezel or set the stone in a bezel made from bezel wire or metal clay.
How to Fire Your Glass in Place
Our Dichroic Mini Gems can be fired directly in place with silver clay. Fire silver clay on either an untreated hard ceramic shelf or a ceramic fiber shelf. Sit each item with glass on a piece of ceramic fiber paper cut to size. If you want your glass cab to remain completely unchanged while it is fired, meaning it does not melt at all and does not change shape, fire your piece at 1300F for 30 minutes and then anneal using the no-peek method.
If you want the glass to fuse to the metal clay, fire at 1450F for 30 minutes, then crash cool and anneal using the crash-cool method.
How to Anneal Your Glass
Annealing is a critical step. Dont confuse glass annealing with metal annealing they are 2 different processes to achieve 2 different outcomes. Glass annealing, as fancy as it sounds, is simply a controlled cooling. Glass expands as it is heated and contracts as it cools. If glass is cooled too quickly, it will thermally shock and crack. The way you will anneal depends on the temperature you have fired at.
Crash-Cool Annealing
If you have brought your glass to the melting point (full fuse temperature, 1450F or higher), youll need to crash cool the kiln. Crash cooling brings the interior temperature down quickly so the glass stops moving.
To crash cool, simply open the kiln door about 2 inches and watch as the temperature falls. When it reaches 1100F, close the door. The temperature will now begin to creep back up. When the temperature stops rising, open the door again and allow the temperature to fall to 1100F. Repeat this until the kiln stays right about 1100F. Then do not open the door again until the temperature is below 200F.
No-Peek Annealing
If you have fired to 1400F or less, just leave the kiln undisturbed (that means dont open the door!) until the interior temperature is below 200F. Thats your entire annealing process. It couldnt be easier.
Kiln Shelves and Kiln Wash
Kiln shelves sometimes need a special treatment depending on what is being fired. Glass, glazes and enamel contacting an untreated kiln shelf will fuse to the surface and ruin the shelf. Ceramic shelves are expensive, so care should be taken to protect them. A mixture of kaolin and alumina hydrate (called kiln wash) is applied to a hard ceramic kiln shelf and baked on to create a durable, non-stick glass fusing surface. Kiln wash is only used on hard ceramic shelves, not ceramic fiber shelves, and should be reserved for glass fusing, glazing or enameling use. Metal clay does not need a kiln-washed surface.
To co-fire glass with silver clay, use a ceramic fiber shelf or an untreated hard ceramic shelf. Use ceramic fiber paper below the glass items. Follow the instructions above for firing.

(Phoenix, Ariz. – Dec. 21, 2006) Attorney General Terry Goddard today announced asettlement with Deed and Note Traders, Inc. (DNT), a Tucson-based "foreclosure assistance"company. The settlement resolves allegations that its HomeSavers program was deceptive inoffering consumers who faced foreclosure a simple way to save their homes.
The settlement requires the company to change its business practices and pay restitution tocustomers who took part in the HomeSavers program.
The complaint alleged that DNT targeted consumers in foreclosure and paid them a nominalamount of money (in one case, $25) for their homes, then permitted the consumers to leaseback their homes and re-purchase them in about 24 months. The State alleged that theHomeSavers program was deceptive and misleading because DNT did not save consumers'homes, and in most cases, the consumers were evicted.
The complaint also alleged that DNT's Rent-to-Own program was deceptive: DNT targetedconsumers with credit problems by offering a "NO QUALIFYING" way for consumers topurchase homes. The State alleged that consumers rarely were able to purchase the homesthey were renting because the company set up too many financial hurdles for consumers toovercome.
This settlement does not constitute an admission of liability by Deed and Note Traders.
According to the settlement:
- DNT must allow consumers who still live in their homes an opportunity to re-purchase themat a discounted price.
- DNT must provide to eligible consumers who are no longer living in their homes restitutionequal to the equity lost to DNT. Refunds will range from $1,709 to $43,566.
- DNT is prohibited from engaging in any type of "foreclosure assistance."
- DNT must finance the purchase of consumers' homes for those consumers who continue tolease from DNT. The company must provide financing for a minimum of 15 years toconsumers for the purchase price of their homes on terms consumers have the ability topay.
- DNT must abide by the conditions outlined in the settlement to provide Rent-to-Owntransactions. For example, DNT must possess the consumer's completed credit applicationand other documentation that establishes creditworthiness and ability to pay the rent. TheState had alleged that DNT did not check consumers' creditworthiness in the past because DNT never intended that they would be able to buy the properties they were renting.
- DNT will pay the Attorney General's Office $200,000 for the cost of the investigation.
A copy of the settlement is attached. Pima County Superior Court Judge John Kelly approvedthe settlement. Assistant Attorney General Noreen Matts handled this case for the AttorneyGeneral's Office.

Sprint recently announced that the LG Rumor Touch will be available starting March 28th. The cost of this new phone is set at $79.99 with a new two year contract and $50 mail in rebate. The LG Touch is set to be one of the better cell phones on the market. Specs for the Touch include a 3 inch WQVGA touchscreen, 2.0 megapixel camera and camcorder, microSD card slot supporting up to 32GB as well as Google search and 3G data capabilities operating on the Sprint EVDO Rec. 0 network.
The LG Touch also offers access to Sprint Navigation, Sprint TV, Sprint Music and Sprint Mobile Email with personal and corporate calendar features. With the initial launch of the LG Touch on the 28th the phone is set to be released in a blue color. Two additional colors red and purple are set to be released starting April 18th.
The LG Rumor Touch has been one of the highly anticipated phones in recent months. With its full list of features the LG Rumor Touch is set to be a classic phone for anyone looking to purchase a new device on a budget. The 3 inch touchscreen and 2.0 megapixel camera are more than enough power for the casual user while the mircoSD card supporting up to 32GB is a nice addition for even the power users. With that sort of memory capabilities you will certainly be able to take a lot of pictures and videos to store on your phone while carrying around all of your music with you wherever you go. I am wondering if LG plans to release this phone in any other colors besides blue, red and purple after the second set of phones are released on April 28th?

Roster Rundown: #78 Wayne Hunter
Position: Offensive Tackle
Height / Weight: 6'5″ 318 lbs.
Age: 30 / Experience: 8
College: Hawaii
2012 Contract Status: Under Contract through 2014
2011 Analysis: Hunter was charged with 8.5 sacks and 11 penalties in his first year as a starter. While Damien Woody might have been recovering from an injury and cost them more to play for the Jets in 2011, it can't be understated what a step backwards it was for the Jets to play Hunter at Tackle. Now granted, Hunter did have his moments, but they were just that … moments. Play-in play-out over the course of the season is not his strength. A game here or there, or a role for Hunter as a fine sixth lineman is fine, but to ask him to start was a mistake, and the Jets had to protect him which caused D'Brickashaw to be on an island constantly, upping his own sack totals. It was not a kind year for Hunter, and for a 30 year-old first time starter to play so poorly so much of the season can't be repeated with a 31 year-old second year starter.
2012 Outlook: The Jets are going to have to ask Hunter to take a paycut and a reduction in role or else he'll be cut. If Hunter accepts the terms, he should stay on and compete against Vlad or whoever else the team might find in free agency or the draft to play the Right Tackle spot. The Jets would be wise to find another Tackle in the draft that could be a swing tackle for the team. While D'Brickashaw should be around for a long time to come, he's already going into his seventh season with the team and injuries are going to start becoming more of a concern over the rest of the team's LT career.
Random Thought: Hunter was a player that displayed Ryan's hubris or optimism or whatever it is going into last season. Last summer he gushed about Hunter, now let's see what the team does with their RT this offseason.

DEKALB JUNCTION Family Dollar is planning one of its stores for Route 11 in the hamlet.
They just thought it would be a good location because theres nothing between Gouverneur and Canton, DeKalb Supervisor Larry D. Denesha said. Its wonderful news.
The 8,000-square-foot store will be built by Lawrence Construction, Canandaigua, at 4269 Route 11, next to the former Loopys restaurant and store. The St. Lawrence County Planning Board will review the application at 7 p.m. Thursday in Room 226 of the county Courthouse.
The Planning Office staff has no major problems with the proposal, Deputy Director Jason C. Pfotenhauer said.
Mr. Pfotenhauer said the store likely expects to draw customers from neighboring population centers such as the villages of Hermon and Richville as well as from DeKalb.
A spokesman for Family Dollar did not return a call, but Mr. Denesha said the developer told Planning Board Chairman Louis H. Harvey LaBarge that the location was right for one of the companys smaller stores. The property falls within the hamlets sewer and water district.
Mr. Denesha said he hoped both the county and town Planning Board would act quickly so the Town Council could review the proposal by its meeting June 20. The store, which sells grocery items, clothing, health and beauty aids and other general merchandise, could be open by fall.
Mr. Denesha said the store could be a beginning for making the town more attractive to other businesses.
I think its going to spur additional traffic, he said. Were very excited.
He was not sure how much the project would add to the tax base.
Itll depend on the construction cost, he said.

Excellence You Can Believe In
As a parent, you always want what's best for your child, – whether that means their health, education, or faith. By choosing to send your child to a Catholic school, you are providing them a unique opportunity to grow in Christ while performing at high academic standards. At Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of Louisville, we call this Excellence You Can Believe In: an ideal that is exemplified through our students' Living Faith, Embracing Service, Celebrating Community and Inspiring Achievement.
A Message from Archbishop Kurtz for the 2015-2016 School Year

Living Faith
Our faith in Jesus Christ is the reason our schools exist. Therefore, both spiritual and academic experiences in Catholic schools enable students to deepen their relationship with Jesus Christ, broaden their knowledge of their faith, and connect their faith to their daily lives. The foundation of faith around which we build our academic programs permeates every aspect of the school day and continues beyond it. This faith-filled environment instills high degrees of self-confidence, self-respect, and self-discipline among students.
Ultimately, a Catholic education should prepare students to be good stewards of God's gifts and active people of faith who serve others, and participate in their faith and civic communities,and make a difference in the world.
This spiritual mission is carried out in many ways—regular school liturgies, prayer experiences, sacramental preparation, retreats, classroom instruction, service learning, and extracurricular activities. And this mission is supported by educators who are committed to fulfilling the teaching mission of Jesus Christ and who offer spiritual guidance in a faith-based environment.
We are committed to continuous improvement in this critical mission of our schools. One of the tools that we use to measure the impact of religious education is the Assessment of Catholic Religious Education (ACRE), a nationally-normed questionnaire that is administered annually to students in grades 5, 8 and 11. ACRE measures students' knowledge about their faith and offers opportunities for students to answer questions related to religious beliefs, practices, and perceptions.
Celebrating Community
Catholic Schools in the Archdiocese of Louisville rank third in the nation in the ratio of the enrollment of students to the overall number of Catholics. This ranking is a testament to the support for Catholic education among all members of the Catholic community.
Visit any Catholic school and you will notice the spirit of camaraderie among students, teachers, and administrators. A Catholic school is a "community within a community" that unites people who share common values and goals as communities of faith.
Within this supportive environment, your child has the opportunity to grow in many ways. A wide variety of extracurricular activities—from academic and social clubs to intramural sports and performing arts—allows students to explore and express their individual gifts and abilities. This atmosphere is supported by teachers who serve as role models, coaches, and counselors and who spend many hours outside of school helping with activities, leading retreats, and assisting students with their academic, personal, and spiritual growth.
Parents are an important part of this community, and parental leadership and involvement is supported and welcomed in Catholic schools. Parents become an integral part of the school community as they assist with spiritual, academic, athletic, and creative initiatives and as they get to know their children's teachers, peers, and other parents.
Catholic schools welcome students from a variety of ethnic, religious, and social backgrounds, and programs are based upon a shared sense of respect for the contributions of every student. Twelve percent of students who attend Catholic schools are from other faith traditions.
Embracing Service
As students mature within the supportive environment of Catholic schools, they are challenged to take that gift of fellowship and give back to the broader community. Students visit the elderly in nursing homes, bring Christmas presents to poverty-stricken areas, build Habit for Humanity houses, and raise money for a variety of issues. They visit civic and governmental institutions to learn about systems, how to be good citizens, and how to advocate for their beliefs. Last year, students in our Catholic high schools clocked more than 159,000 hours of community service.
Catholic schools also offer many programs in which students are encouraged to develop leadership skills and civic responsibility, including service learning programs, pro-life organizations, environmental clubs, student government, mock legislative clubs, and parish youth ministry programs. Dozens of Catholic school students are honored each year for unique contributions that they have made to their neighborhoods and communities.
Inspiring Achievement
Students emerge from Catholic schools with a strong liberal arts education that is supported by technology and focused on the skills needed for today and tomorrow. Students learn decision-making skills, develop high levels of literacy in language arts and mathematics, apply inquiry-based experimentation and problem solving, and build understanding and appreciation for world history and cultures. They also participate in award-winning visual and performing arts programs, build lifelong habits of fitness, and engage in a variety of high-quality electives and extracurricular activities.
The programs in our school exceed state requirements and are measured through regular testing. These tests show that Catholic school students in the Archdiocese of Louisville score significantly better than state and national averages.
Catholic schools provide a bridge to other life experiences and opportunities. Graduates of Catholic schools are well prepared for college and life, and last year, 97% of seniors pursued post-secondary education. The class of 2015 earned more than $111 million in scholarships.
Several Catholic schools have been recognized as Blue Ribbon Schools of Excellence. This award represents the highest national honor presented to quality schools by the U.S. Department of Education. In addition, a number of schools have won awards for technology innovation, teaching excellence, and the arts.
The professionals who teach your children are well-prepared to provide a rigorous and comprehensive education. Catholic school teachers are certified, and three out of four have advanced degrees. In addition, teachers regularly participate in continuing education opportunities to keep current with innovations in education and religious instruction.
Because We Believe
When he was Cardinal of Argentina, Pope Francis said about Catholic schools: "The education of children and young people is such an important task in forming them as free and responsible human beings….And because education truly forms human beings, it is especially the duty and responsibility of the Church, who is called to serve mankind from the heart of God and in such a way that no other institution can."
Every day, children and youth in our schools have the opportunity to learn about the person of Jesus Christ, who is the source of our hope and salvation. They are invited to know Jesus personally, to love Him intimately, and to serve Him wholeheartedly. This "good news" is the reason our schools exist. Because We Believe.

Meanwhile, another hero has sadly been added to the ever-increasing rolls. Victoria Soto, a Sandy Hook Elementary School first-grade teacher. She died protecting her students from the crazed gunman in Connecticut. Vicki Soto is survived by Donna and Carlos Soto, her parents, and her sisters and brother. God bless you, Vicki. Reading of your courage gave me chills.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate community editor
A little less than a hundred years ago, Carbon and Emery counties split from each other. Up until that time they both fell under the geographical designation of Emery County.
The reasons for the split were varied and complex, somewhat due at least to the fact that the railroad had provided an economic base for the Price area that didn't exist for the rest of the county.
So Carbon and Emery are like siamese twins that were once conjoined, but have lived a long time since the separation apart, yet always connected by memories, traditions, issues and yes, even relatives.
While many don't like to admit it, the two counties are as dependent on each other as any two could be. Many people have jobs that take them one way or the other across the county line. Others have business interests in both counties. Both draw on similar water resources from the same places. Each county is dependent on the energy industry for the bulk of the best jobs.
When I moved here as a neophyte from the Wasatch Front 14 years ago this month, I thought the entire area was pretty much the same. The interests seemed very common and the needs seemed the same too. However I soon learned that some people from Carbon County had disdain for those from Emery and visa versa.
Many places, even within the same county are divided socially, but when it comes to fighting for the interests of the place, people band together. On some issues Emery and Carbon have often done that, and in fact are presently doing that now on some issues.
Unfortunately, even with that cooperation however, there are those in both counties that don't trust the other, as they speculate about hidden agendas and unscrupulous actions. I know that some of these feelings are based on past experience, and that kind of mind set is hard to overcome.
But the fact is that if Castle Valley as a whole is going to thrive, those kinds of concepts need to be set aside. While differences will always remain between the two, the two counties should always be at least one, in spirit.

Posted 19 June 2012 - 04:08 AM
The ATP will fit in the second conversion listed. The problem is with the cocking handle and the shape of the slide. The cocking handle made for the M17 has teeth that grab the serations on the slide and fits very close to the rear of the slide. The shape of the ATP slide is longer and will not allow full "bite" by the cocking handle. I have a M18 in one of the conversion kits, and while it looks cool, its pretty much useless.
Posted 20 June 2012 - 05:19 AM
i started this thread a while back. i found the same thing Tacsports just mentioned, it fits, but due to the ATP slide shape, it doesnt Grab, i plan on buying one in my next few paychecks, and modding it to work, i will post back letting you know how it goes

SUNY Cantons new police chief is a familiar face in St. Lawrence County law enforcement.
John A. Kaplan, the SUNY Potsdam police chief, will become the latest shared administrator between the two campuses as he assumes the position Saturday.
I am very much looking forward to this opportunity, he said. Those staffs have tremendous skill sets. Both campuses have staffs that are extremely strong and motivated.
Mr. Kaplan, a SUNY Potsdam graduate, served as Potsdam village police chief from 2003 to 2010, when he took the job at his alma mater.
I will retain my office at SUNY Potsdam, but I anticipate spending a significant amount of time at SUNY Canton learning about their buildings and staffs, he said.
SUNY Cantons police chief, Lisa E. Colbert, announced her intention to return to the classroom as an associate professor in the colleges Department of Criminal Justice. Ms. Colbert had been a member of the department since 2011.
Chief Colbert has done an exceptional job leading our university police over the past year, but we respect her desire to return to the classroom, said Carli C. Schiffner, SUNY Canton interim president. She is an exceptional instructor, and our students will benefit greatly, learning from her experiences in university police and outside agencies.
As he becomes acclimated to his responsibilities, Mr. Kaplan will oversee a study of each departments operations.
As important as anything, there will be a comprehensive strategic review of our goals and objectives, he said. We will examine the operations of all the departments, and well share ideas on everything from training opportunities to operational plans.
Mr. Kaplan said additional efficiencies could be found by cooperating with area law enforcement agencies.
Were confident that we have such a great working relationship it will make our response seamless, he said.The more we train and work together, the safer our communities will be.
Each campus will retain its own deputy chief.
Since joining his alma mater in 2010, John Kaplan has proven himself to be a valuable asset for both campus and community. His years of service to the village of Potsdam and now to SUNY Potsdam have prepared him well to work closely in collaboration with the force at SUNY Canton, SUNY Potsdam President Dr. John F. Schwaller said.
We would like to thank Chief Colbert at Canton for her hard work, as she and John discuss how both departments can work together over the coming months.
The police chief becomes the latest in a series of positions merged by the campuses. Previously, the schools moved to share a veterans service coordinator, a chief financial officer and an interlibrary loan officer, among other services and positions.

Over the past few years, celebrities and socialites have proved that fedoras and berets will indefinitely remain relevant accessories in our closets, but the chapeau shape we're preoccupied with right now is the bowler! Ever since we saw how charming Keira Knightley looked in a dark brown bowler for Chanel's Coco Mademoiselle campaign last year, we have coveted the chic look and paid special attention to its presence on the heads of our dearest trendsetters. More than just a handful of our style idols (Pixie Geldof, Rachel Bilson, et al) are incorporating bowlers into their outfits for an overall effect that is equal parts quirky and confident. Designers, including Sonia Rykiel and Limi Feu, gave the hat additional attention by featuring them in their fall runway shows. All of this continuous bowler exposure left us with two fated missions: first, find the best size and style bowler suited for us so we can begin practicing the trend ourselves (check). Second, spread the news to our fine readers via a thorough Accessory Report (check, check)!
Originally created in 1849, the bowler (sometimes referred to as the derby or a melone because of its melon-like shape) was created as an accessory for protecting gamekeepers' heads from hitting tree branches while horseback riding. Since then, it has gone on to top countless and diverse noggins. The most obvious of them, Charlie Chaplin, is immediately associated with the hat, as well as Malcolm McDowell's character, Alex, in the cult-classic A Clockwork Orange, and Liza Minnelli's role, Sally Bowles, in Cabaret. (We also have a difficult time imagining what Mr. Potato Head would do without his plastic black bowler!) Whoever inspired the current derby revival so many celebrity fashion muses are partaking in, the results are fantastic. We are elated with how a bowler hat polished the leather jacket and black skinny jeans combo Mischa Barton wore two weeks ago while shopping in Milan. We're also equally enthralled that Pixie Geldof used one of the chic round hats as a precautionary precipitation shield from Glastonbury's notorious rainfall. The lovely Rachel Bilson incorporated this accessory in the androgynous ensemble she wore while promoting her line, Edie Rose for DKNY Jeans, in Florida last month. Bilson wore Chanel's Petite Felt Bowler ($1125, 800.550.0005) with her Edie Rose for DKNY Jeans Roll Sleeve Button Woven Shirt ($59), a blazer, and ballet flats.
It's true that we're fond of how well a bowler plays out in daywear, but they are equally relevant for nighttime outfits, too. Both Daisy Lowe and Georgia Jagger embraced the derby in their recent evening attire for London's Fashion Week. Lowe attended the Giles S/S 09 show wearing a sheer Dries Van Noten Top, Les Chiffoniers PVC Leggings ($330), Alejandro Ingelmo Billie Jean 1 Pumps ($830, available at Harvey Nichols boutiques), a Vivienne Westwood Coat, and topped the look off with a vintage bowler from Annie's Antiques (+44 20 73590796) in London. We also spotted Jagger wearing one very well. She attended Vivienne Westwood's S/S 09 show in a button-up blouse over a vintage shirt, black mini skirt, three-buckle flats, and accessorized beautifully with a bowler.
If all of the celebrity style support for bowlers, coupled with our own outspoken fixation on this hat shape, has left you in need of one yourself, then our job is almost done! However, we couldn't let you walk away from this Accessory Report without both takeaway knowledge of the trend and some thoughtfully chosen product recommendations! After scouring our plethora of beloved online retailers, we are most pleased with the looks and prices of Urban Outfitters' Felt Bowler ($38, in black or blue smoke), Helena Berman's Wool Bowler Hat ($54, in black or cream), and Forever 21's Ribbon Trimmed Derby Hat ($17). However, we couldn't help lusting over some more high-end options, like the Japanese-designed CA4LA Felt Bowler ($240) and Sonia Rykiel's sparkly swan-festooned Felt Hat ($1100). Also notable: all of the chapeaus at Hats in the Belfry, specifically Christys' Englishman Fur Felt Derby ($288). For those of you who prefer to try on a few different varieties before finding one that is just right, we suggest going to Goorin Brothers in Hollywood, which has been famous since 1895 for their chic selection. Hats off to you, dear readers! -Jessica Amento

If you've been to Downtown Disney or read our Blog lately, you know changes are coming. The area is undergoing the largest expansion in its history. As we prepare for Disney Springs, much of the area that traditionally houses the Festival of the Masters is unavailable due to expansion work and unfortunately we will not be able to host the event.
We appreciate the enthusiastic support we've received from the arts community, both locally and nationally, which has contributed to the long-running success of the Festival. Walt Disney World Resort is a strong supporter of the arts and we remain committed to nurturing the arts.
We ask for your patience and understanding during this time of growth and look forward to building new memories with you at Disney Springs.

I love, love, love the idea of the new "Disney Springs". The whole idea of a running spring and a "village"built around it makes perfect Disney sense. Disney is built on the imagination of the American Dream, this place will encompass all that is and more. Love the article, the idea and can't wait to "Spring" on over to see the new "Village"!
Crystal on August 20th, 2014 at 10:16 pm
So why can't they move it out to wide world of sports car park or something instead of canceling?
Disney is so large I find it very hard to beleave there is no other location available for a temporary change this year.
Kevin from FL on August 20th, 2014 at 10:39 pm
We have already made our plans to be at Disney for the FotM. It's an annual occurrence for our family. It could have been relocated somewhere on Disney property.
Lauren on August 20th, 2014 at 10:42 pm
I am really disappointed about this. I love art and visit Walt Disney World every year specifically to go to Festival of the Masters and already had booked my reservation at the French Quarter resort for this year. Now I don't even know if I will come at all.
Is Festival of the Maters cancelled permanently, or just until the construction of Disney Springs is finished? If the latter, is there a year for when Festival of the Masters will return? I would hate to think this great event will never be held again.
Kim from FL on August 21st, 2014 at 7:22 am
Will it be back in the future? We were looking forward to attending this year as we have for many years past.
Steve on August 21st, 2014 at 8:05 am
Are you saying it's cancelled just for 2014 or permanently? I've always looked forward to this event.
Greg on August 21st, 2014 at 9:54 am
We also make this an annual file trip for our Keiser University Graphics department and look forward to it with great anticipation. I hope that this is only a one-year break . With Disney's great venues I am sure that you will find somewhere else on the Disney property to keep this great event alive.
Danny on August 21st, 2014 at 1:18 pm
If Disney didn't create new experiences and do construction and update things, people will complain. If Disney does create new experiences and do construction and update things, people will complain.
I'm upset about Festival of the Masters being gone this year too, but it's not possible to happen. Obviously, Disney waited as long as possible to see if it could happen, but it just physically can't.
And it can't "just be moved" somewhere like a park or a resort. Parking would be impossible, security would be an issue, and it would cause havoc for guests staying at said resorts…such as Boardwalk.
takahiro on August 21st, 2014 at 2:38 pm
sad news…
Michele on August 21st, 2014 at 6:50 pm
We too planned out trip around this event. Is this a permanent cancellation or just this year? It would be a true shame to have this event disappear permanently
Patrick on August 23rd, 2014 at 4:08 pm
As an artist, I've been involved in Disney's Festival of the Masters show every year since 1998. This year, I was invited to participate in the FoTM show without having to 'jury-in,' as I was the recipient of an Award of Excellence in last year's show.
I commend Disney executives for making what had to be an incredibly difficult decision to cancel, rather than relocate or reschedule, this year's show. Bravo!
I can't wait till next year when the Disney Festival of the Masters show returns to the ALL NEW Disney Springs in Downtown Disney! It will have been well worth the wait.
Thank you, Mr. Thomas Smith, for all that you and your Disney team do to make Disney Parks and the events that take place within them, a memorable destination unlike any other in the world!
Debra from FL on September 7th, 2014 at 10:51 am
This is becoming quite confusing. I recently received my Disney Files magazine and there is a whole "blurb" on page 22 (bottom left) about the Festival of the Maters event and the new exhibit "Horns and Heroes" benefitting rhino conservation. While I'm a local and it's easy for me to change plans, this is not the case for everyone and hope guests don't use Disney Files as their "go to" source for info, planning a trip only to get here to find out FotM has been cancelled.
margaret on October 11th, 2014 at 8:09 pm
I sure hope you bring back the art festival next year. My daughter and I have been attending for years as our special "mother / daughter" weekend. We love the new things Disney is constantly coming up with but this is one event that would be very sad to have go by the wayside. Here's hoping we'll be attending next year.
Jamie on October 28th, 2014 at 12:19 pm
We too look forward to this every year, and are disappointed, but hope that it's only for this year due to construction. Would be nice to hear it is coming back next year. It's one of our favorite times at Disney.
Freddy on January 7th, 2015 at 1:11 am
Will there be a Festival of the Masters in 2015? I would love to find out about the necessary steps to be a part of such a great and inspiring event.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
A friend of mine confided in my just last week that he doesn't know what to buy his 89 year old father for Christmas. In fact he is actually scared to buy anything.
"I bought him a battery charger for his car last year," he said pointing out that his father still gets out and drives every day and still does a lot of his own work on his cars. "You know what he said when he opened it and saw what it was? 'Hell, I still have the charger you bought me for Christmas in 1979 and I still use it. Why do you think I need another one?"
I'm not sure how many people face this with seniors, particularly parents, but my father did something similar to me a couple of times for both Christmas and his birthday. I understood that maybe he no longer needed what I bought, but couldn't have he just accepted it and not said anything. One time I asked him how he thought that made me feel. He told me he was just trying to save me money by me not having to buy something he didn't need. His reasons for what he did were ultimately about me, not him. He always did think of his children first.
At the time I didn't understand that very well, but with him having died five years ago, I wish he was still here so I could give him something he didn't want or need and ultimately he could complain about it.
I think there is something that many of us just approaching senior status ourselves have failed to realize all these years that we are now just starting to understand; time is running out for us and there is no time to fool around with things we don't either need or want. Sometimes getting anything ranging from attention to gifts is just a bother. And I have found myself being less and less gracious over the years with people who either take my time or try to give me something I don't really want.
But you know what? In this season of giving (and getting) we should all be grateful for any gifts that we receive regardless of the size or cost of the gift. If someone thought enough of you to buy you something (or to make it themselves) It is pretty darn important to take the gift whether we want it or can use it or not. Let's face it there is nothing that will offend someone so quickly than someone not being thankful for what they have received.
I guess that thankfulness has to come from looking around you, even if you can't see the forest for the trees. Whenever I get the urge to tell someone that what they have given me is not something I want, I just think about how fortunate I am to have someone that cares enough to place something in my hands.
And also think about those that have little this Christmas season. There are a lot of people out of work, that have lost their homes and are in a desperate situation. If nothing else take that gift you don't want and donate it somewhere where it can do some good.
It really is a state of mind; one that can be changed to make the season better.

The many Dubai restaurants and cafés mirror the melting pot of different cultures and nationalities that make up the city. Most of the more popular Dubai restaurants are in hotels, and you should be aware that these are usually the only establishments with alcohol licences.
That said, there are plenty of exceptional independent restaurants in Dubai. Cheapest are those venues which offer tasty fare from the Indian subcontinent. Costs can creep up significantly for more specialised international cuisine, although dining in Dubai is normally good value. The one major exception is alcohol, which bumps up the bill significantly.
Celebrity chefs such as Gordon Ramsay and Marco Pierre White have opened restaurants in Dubai. With leading Dubai restaurants such as these, you'll always need to book beforehand.
Finally, for dining with a difference, it is well worth enjoying a dinner cruise on a traditional wooden dhow on the Creek.

Read: Scott Howson On The Trade
Scott Howson said the following during a press conference today:
"We have gone through a number of discussions with the Rangers. It had it's ebbs and flows. The trade deadline was one, the draft was another and it really heated up this last week. This was all about getting the right deal for Rick. We weren't going to get a deal done until we felt we got proper value and we felt we got it today."
"Sometimes it takes time to get the right value and it took us six months to get us the value that we were happy with and that is just the way this trade happened. It really had a lot of peaks and valleys, our staff worked very hard in analyzing the possibilities and it's part of our job and wasn't going to get done until we got a fair return."
"I think we both took a step in the right direction and I talked to him on Friday and told him what it was going to take. He took the weekend and told me what we could do."
Artem Anisimov is on his honeymoon in Fiji. Howson said that he spoke with Erixon and Dubinsky.

Updating to correct the percentage of Apple shares' gains.
SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — Shares of Kayak Software Corp., Groupon Inc., and Walt Disney Co. made big moves during U.S. trading Friday, while Apple Inc. and J.C. Penney Co. were among top trending tickers.
Top tickers trending
$AAPL: Apple Inc. AAPL, +0.31% shares recovered 1.7% after closing at a five-month low on Thursday.
Analysts at UBS — Steven Milunovich, Peter Christiansen, and John Roy — published a relatively detailed note on Friday, stressing that this would be a good time for investors to add to Apple holdings.
"With earnings momentum bottoming and near-term upside EPS surprises more likely, we continue to like the stock here," said the analysts in a report entitled "Insights from visit to Apple."
"Apple is selective about what it does in providing platforms and services to consumers. The company does see new categories to create and appears interested in services. Apple expressed less interest in owning content or its own network. Surprisingly, it played down the mobile wallet opportunity."
Here are a few excerpts from the report:
"There will be some dilution from the Mini and longer term, perhaps a smaller iPhone, but we think investors should focus on profit dollars growing rather than just margin percentage."
"Management was bullish regarding its growth opportunities and ability to differentiate. Despite the recent management changes, Apple remains product- rather than financial-focused, perhaps Steve Jobs' most important legacy."
"Some Apple naysayers argue that the passing of Steve Jobs will represent the peak of Apple in retrospect. Given that Jobs likely left a multi-year product plan, it is too soon to know. Apple argues that management has been together for some time and that the decision process has changed little. The operating committee meets every Monday from 9-12 and decides which product areas are promising."
@FITZSTOCK2004: this place went from a funeral parlor, to an amusement park today, $AAPL......
$JCP: J.C. Penney Co. Inc. JCP, -0.82% shares fell 4.8% after the retailer said third-quarter loss narrowed to $123 million, or 56 cents a share, from a loss of $143 million, or 67 cents a share, a year ago. But adjusted loss, which excludes items, came in at 93 cents a share, a reversal form the profit of 18 cents a share seen in the year-earlier quarter. Total sales fell 27% to $2.93 billion. J.C. Penney Q3 loss narrows
Despite all its money-losing warts, the department store chain remains a prominent holding in hedge fund manager Bill Ackman's portfolio. "There is enormous skepticism about J.C. Penney," he admitted at a recent investment conference.
Ackman, however, expressed confidence in Chief Executive Ron Johnson and said he was moving in the right direction. "He is building a mall within a mall," Ackman said, referring to J.C. Penney's strategy of leasing space inside of its stores to other brands. Read about Johnson's vision for the struggling retailer

Every year the Carbon High baseball coaching staff looks to create the best players possible.
However, the cost of an able team can often come at the price of a poor early season record.
So far this season, the Dinos have been paired with some of the top ranked teams in the state.
"By no means is our schedule kicked-back this spring," head coach Lane Herrick pointed out.
The Dinos participated in the southern Utah Pizza Hut Classic last weekend and competed against some of the best teams in 3A baseball.
Carbon came away from the tournament 1-3.
In the opening game against Grantsville, the Dinos had moments of congruity but struggled to keep it together for the entire contest.
"Our runs came late in the game and we had a lot of defensive errors," Herrick remarked.
Grantsville took the game 7-2.
Carbon then took a 12-5 win over Window Rock, Ariz. and followed it up with a tight 3-2 loss against Cedar City.
Carbon ended the tournament with a 16-6 loss to Dixie after leading the Flyers 5-0.
However, Herrick is not concerned with the team's record.
He said he saw a lot of promising things during the tournament, from batting to defense, and knows the boys will be in full stride when the Region 8 season begins on March 26 at Emery.
"We'll turn things around this week," he projected. "Anytime we can come out of spring with a 500 record we feel very comfortable."
The Dinos host Spanish Fork today before leaving for a Colorado tournament.
