|Ashe County Man Faces Charges In Ashe County And Florida
|Written by Christie James
|Friday, 16 March 2007 06:36
A high-speed chase Sunday in Ashe County came to a conclusion in Florida Wednesday. Deputies spotted 20-year-old Matthew Alexander of Allegheny County driving on NC16 this past Sunday. When the deputies tried to stop Alexander due to several outstanding misdemeanor warrants he engaged them in a high-speed chase.
The chase was called off for safety reasons when he crossed the Virginia Border. That was the end of it until Wednesday, when a Jacksonville Police Officer saw a green car parked illegally near a beach walkover at Jacksonville Beach, Florida. The car's windows had been painted black. The officer found Alexander and an 18-year-old woman sitting in the car. He started to question the girl separately. Jacksonville authorities say that's when Alexander became extremely agitated and advanced toward them with box cutter's he'd obtained from his car. He allegedly threatened and challenged the officers who, when he reached 10 feet away from them, shot him once. Alexander is in stable condition in a Florida hospital. The 18-year-old woman, his fiancée, said that Alexander had mental health problems. He now faces three counts of assault on law enforcement in Florida, as well as misdemeanor warrants and charges of speeding to elude arrest back home in Ashe County.

Eminem's daughter is high school royalty.
The rapper's 17-year-old daughter Hailie Scott was crowned homecoming queen of Chippewa Valley High School on Friday -- and her famous father was in the crowd for her coronation.
While her mom Kim Scott joined her in front of the crowd during the ceremony, Eminem chose to watch from the sidelines.
"Hailie came out with her mother Kim when she was introduced with all the other kids but her father watched from inside the school because he didn't want to cause a scene -- he wanted Hailie to have her own moment," a bystander told the Macomb Daily.
"He just looked like a proud father," the source added. Screengrabs from WHSV and WEWS quickly went viral.
Hailie reportedly tweeted after the ceremony, posting "So happy and thankful to be Chippewa's homecoming queen! It's such an honor and blessing. #grateful'."
Congrats Hailie!

By KEVIN SCANNELLSun Advocate reporter
Those visiting Price City's International Days celebration will have an opportunity to reach new heights during the three-day festival.
The city council approved a motion 4-1 allowing a hot air balloon ride operation to go forward during the city's marquee event.
The hot air balloon rides are being run by Hot Air Enterprises based out of Pleasant Grove.
A special meeting was held by the city council on Friday to discuss whether the city should have the hot air balloon rides be a part of International Days or if the city should back away from the idea due to questions about insurance and liability.
Questions about insurance coverage were a main sticking point that the city council discussed at length during the special meeting. Hot Air Enterprises has an insurance policy that allows for as many $1 million claims throughout its entire policy period, but has an aggregate policy of $0. Council members and other city officials were concerned about the $0 figure but they ultimately approved the project after receiving official statements from Hot Air Enterprise's insurance company.
John Daniels, Price City human resources director, said he did not find anything questionable about the company that runs the hot air balloon business.
Jeanne McEvoy cast the lone no vote on the motion. McEvoy said she voted against allowing the hot air balloon rides to go forward because the contract sent in by the business was not consistent with other activities the city has done before.
Bringing in the hot air balloon rides also required the city to look into whether the business would need to notify the Carbon County Airport about the balloon, which will reach heights of just over 30 feet. Also because Hot Air Enterprises has only one employee, the business relies upon volunteers to help with the running of the balloon rides. Because of the need for helping hands, Carbon Recreation will volunteer to help out on Friday morning and Price City fire fighters will help on Saturday morning.
The hot air balloon rides will run for two days, on Friday and Saturday morning from 6 to 9 a.m. on the football field at Mont Harmon Junior High.
Barbara Piccolo, a member of the Price City Centennial Committee, said the balloon rides would be available on a first-come first-serve basis with no costs to patrons. While there is no cost for the ride, donations will be accepted.

Today's marketplace for New York state dairy farmers to sell their milk is much narrower than it was 1980, experts say, dropping the premiums they received when there were more competitors here to do business with.
And according to a recent study, it's a trend that has put all dairy farmers in a pinch.
Compiled by Food & Water Watch, a nonprofit organization based in Washington, D.C., the study contends that the consolidation of large milk cooperatives over the past three decades has been a contributing cause to the widespread drop in the number of farms in the state. But at the same time, individual farms have exploded both in size and number of cattle. The vast majority of dairy farmers in Jefferson, Lewis and St. Lawrence counties today are members of Dairylea of Syracuse or Agri-Mark, a regional cooperative based in Massachussetts.
St. Lawrence County is used as an example in the study to highlight the trend. Though the county continues to be among the state's leaders in milk production, data show that it lost 77 percent of its dairy farms from 1982 to 2007, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, dropping from 1,115 to 262. By contrast, the size of the county's farms greatly increased over the period: the average number of cows per farm jumped from 43 to 120, or 183 percent. The number of dairy cows fell by 34 percent, from 47,485 to 31,525.
Patty A. Lovera, assistant director of Food & Water Watch, said the demise in past decades of small farms in St. Lawrence County was driven partly by the expansion of milk cooperatives, which gave farmers fewer options to distribute their milk.
Cooperatives are marketing associations owned by member farmers that market their members' milk to various processors.
"The cooperative system for picking up milk has been around a long time, and it's supposed to be beneficial because they're farmer owned," Ms. Lovera said. "But what we've heard from a lot of farmers is these cooperatives have gotten bigger; we're hearing they're acting a lot like corporations, and they're not getting fair prices for milk. A lot of people say they are members because they don't have other options."
But Bruce W. Krupke, vice president of the Northeast Dairy Foods Association, said the conclusion made by the study misrepresents what caused loss of farms over the past three decades. He said blaming the consolidation of milk cooperatives precludes three main causes of the trend. Consumer demand for fluid milk, for which farmers receive the most money, has gradually declined over the past three decades, making it harder for small farms to survive, while advancements in technology have spurred the expansion of dairy farms. He also blamed the U.S. Department of Agriculture federal milk market order system, which sets the price of milk using a formula that accounts for supply and demand in five states: the eastern two-thirds of New York, northeast Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Connecticut and Rhode Island.
"Dairy processors and manufacturers are insulated from the claims made by the study because it's the USDA federal milk market order system that dairy farmers created, which mandates what prices farmers get for their milk," he said. "How can farmers complain they're not being paid enough by a system they created?"
He continued, "Board members from Dairylea cooperative could sit down, write a letter to the USDA and say, 'We no longer want a federal order in the Northeast.' They have enough demand with farmers to do it. Prices could then be fairly set with farmers and producers" in the region.
Philadelphia dairy farmer Michael B. Kiechle, president of the Jefferson County Farm Bureau, said that because today's marketplace pressures dairy farmers to join large cooperatives, small farms have to be as efficient as possible to earn a living from year to year.
"In the 1970s, I could look for the best prices from manufacturers to sell milk and sell it to get the best premium," he said. "There were several plants here that farmers could sell their milk directly to. But in the marketplace today, as a farmer, you don't get those profit margins."
Across the Northeast, the majority of milk from cattle is distributed by three entities: Dairylea, Dairy Farmers of America — the nation's second largest cooperative — and dairy processor Dean Foods, the nation's largest dairy processor with 129 plants in 39 states.
One key development that affected farmers in the north country was the formation of a joint milk-marketing venture in 1999 between Dairylea and DFA. Called Dairy Marketing Services LLC, the merger was designed to distribute milk more efficiently by providing marketing services for more than 6,000 farmers across the Northeast. Dean Foods, which bottles 70 percent of milk across the Northeast, receives its milk only from DFA and DMS.
The collaboration of these three milk giants made it increasingly challenging for independent cooperatives to compete, Ms. Lovera said.
New York state "now has fewer cooperatives and processors, and in both of those steps, it's more of a bottleneck," she said. For large cooperatives, "it doesn't matter how many farms they work with; what matters is the volume of the product and if we're producing more milk. St. Lawrence County is a good example because the production of milk and cows has gone up, but it's done on a smaller number of farms."

CANTON - Turtles, dogs and dolphins were created at Taylor Park in the first amateur sand sculpting competition on Saturday.
Were always looking for something new to try each summer, said Canton Recreation Director John S. Taillon. This is a great way to get people out.
The Canton Highway Department brought in several large piles of sand just for the event. Five teams tried their hand at sculpting, three in the children under 12 category, and two teams going head-to-head in the adult category.
Participants received cash prizes, provided by Village Trustee Mary Ann Ashley.
What beats a day at the beach and the opportunity to win some cash? asked John S. Mikolay of Waddington.
Mr. Mikolay and his team were competing in the adult category. They created a dog licking up a spilled (and very sandy) ice-cream cone.
The competition began at 11:30 a.m. and continued for two hours.
We decided to give it a try. Its a really nice day out, Hannah S. Harvester said.
Her team worked to form a giant turtle. They spent their first 45 minutes just creating a mound of sand large enough to sculpt their creation.
Mr. Taillon and Ms. Ashley judged the teams based on creativity, technical difficulty and other factors. The original intention was to have 10 teams - five for each event, but Mr. Taillon said the turnout was fine for a first run.
Were very happy with that, being a first year, he said.
The dog with the ice-cream cone took home first prize, $150, while the giant turtle scored its creators $75.
Some of the sculptures came complete with their own story lines.
Xiomara Oey-Langen, 10, and her brother, Danilo T. Oey-Langen, 7, created a giant snake, complete with a pit of doom where villagers from a nearby sand village could be thrown. Their creation netted them $75 for second prize in the childrens category.
Gavin D. Matthews, 8, dug a pit in the sand and used a hose to fill up a pond. He built a small sand museum next to it.
I just wanted to have fun, Gavin said. He won $25 for third prize.
Josh J. Mikolay, 12, and his team brought home the $150 first prize in the childrens category for sculpting a sea turtle, complete with its nest, alongside a dolphin and a hermit crab.

The Closers (Harry Bosch)by Michael Connelly
"Bosch, after two years of retirement, finds himself rusty in certain areas; his lack of finesse with the cell phone more than once threatens to blow his cover. But he proves his detective skills are still sharp, pursuing the Verloren case with a dogged, moral purpose. Connelly, too, is at the top of his game, and the latest installment of the Bosch saga comes with thrills, twists to spare, and a deeply satisfying conclusion." Anna Godbersen, Esquire (read the entire Esquire review)
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
He walked away from the job three years ago. But Harry Bosch cannot resist the call to join the elite Open/Unsolved Unit. His mission: solve murders whose investigations were flawed, stalled, or abandoned to L.A.'s tides of crime. With some people openly rooting for his failure, Harry catches the case of a teenager dragged off to her death on Oat Mountain, and traces the DNA on the murder weapon to a small-time criminal.
But something bigger and darker beckons, and Harry must battle to fit all the pieces together. Shaking cages and rattling ghosts, he will push the rules to the limit — and expose the kind of truth that shatters lives, ends careers, and keeps the dead whispering in the night...
"LAPD detective Harry Bosch, hero of last year's The Narrows and other Connelly thrillers, is back on the force after a two-year retirement. Assigned to the Open Unsolved (cold cases) unit and teamed with former partner Kiz Rider, Harry's first case back involves the killing of a high school girl 17 years before, reopened because of a DNA match to blood found on the murder gun. That premise could be a formula for a routine outing, but not with Connelly. Nor does the author rely on violent action to propel his story; there's next to none. In Connelly/Bosch's world, character, context and procedure are what count, and once again the author proves a master at all. The blood on the gun belongs to a local lowlife white supremacist, Roland Mackey; the victim had a black father and a white mother. But the blood indicates only that Mackey had possession of the gun, so how to pin him to the crime? Connelly meticulously leads the reader along with Bosch and Rider as they explore the links to Mackey and along the way connect the initial investigation of the crime to a police conspiracy. Most striking of all, in developments that give this novel astonishing moral force, the pair explore the 'ripples' of the long ago crime, how it has destroyed the young girl's family — leaving the mother trapped in the past and plunging the father into a nightmare of homelessness and drink — and how it drives Rider, and especially Bosch, into deeper understanding of their own purposes in life. Connelly comes as close as anyone to being today's Dostoyevsky of crime literature, and this is one of his finest novels to date, a likely candidate not only for book award nominations but for major bestsellerdom. Agent, Phillip Spitzer. Major ad/promo; 11-city author tour." Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
"Fans and newcomers alike will love seeing Bosch back in uniform, stirring up trouble." Library Journal
"Connelly sets up a great premise here...and he makes the most of it....Give Connelly credit for having the courage to tinker with one of the richest characters in the genre." Booklist (Starred Review)
"Connelly is one of the most consistently excellent authors in current-day crime fiction: his characters, particularly the world-weary Bosch, are complex and appealing; his stories fast-paced, edgy and believable." BookPage
"Connelly...is the real thing: an immensely skilled entertainer who has mastered the requirements and expectations of his genre but also from time to time rises above them....Connelly writes grown-up novels that...remind us that the place to look for serious American fiction is not in the schools of creative writing but out there in the real world." Jonathan Yardley, The Washington Post
"Like James Ellroy and John Fante, both of whose work is referred to here, Mr. Connelly continues to make his doomy, secretive Los Angeles a living, breathing character in his stories." Janet Maslin, The New York Times
"The Closers finds both Bosch and Connelly on the top of their game." CrimeSpree Magazine
"The Closers is a worthy if not especially noteworthy entry in the Bosch saga. Average Connelly is far better than average." Houston Chronicle
"[I]n the absence of a feral Poet-like serial killer to keep things exciting, this plodding expedition never really takes off. (Grade: B-)" Entertainment Weekly
In Los Angeles in 1988, a 16-year-old girl was found dead with a single gunshot wound to the chest. Although detectives on the case found clues that pointed toward murder, no one was ever charged. Detective Harry Bosch, newly returned to the LAPD with the job of closing unsolved cases, gets the report of a new DNA match that makes the case very much alive again. A white supremacist with close ties to the LAPD becomes a suspect — but Bosch and his partner, Kizmin Rider, can't take a step without threatening higher-ups in the department. And the case turns out to be anything but cold. Everywhere he probes, Bosch finds hot grief, hot rage, and a bottomless well of treachery and danger.
The death of a teenage girl almost two decades ago comes back to haunt all of L.A. — and detective Harry Bosch — in this spellbinding new thriller from New York Times bestselling author Michael Connelly.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
On the morning of May 21, 1928, the first Scofield dam keeper, Jack Booth, watched as the structure that held back thousands of acre feet of water located just above the present Scofield Dam began to crumble. He immediately called officials through the Scofield operator in Price, and with that a huge effort to save the dam began.
Within a short time local people from Scofield and the nearby mines converged on the dam and began using anything and everything to shore up the dike.
Over the next few hours about three-fifths of the front of the dam collapsed, making more water rush out through the back of the dam. A lot of fill put in by those responding that had been used to reinforce the dam was lost. By 10 a.m. that morning a special train with fill materials and bags was dispatched from Price. When the train arrived the crew found a small group of workers tired, discouraged and out of materials. They resumed their work as soon as the supplies got there, but within a short time reports from those on the spot later reported that another collapse on the front of the dam made the whole structure "quiver."
As night approached the resolution of the workers trying to save the dam "began to wane," stated the News Advocate in the May 23 edition of the paper.. The darkness of the mood of the people matched the night that was falling around them. Some reinforcements had arrived by train but the water was taking its toll on both the dam itself and on the men and women working to reinforce the structure.
By 1:30 a.m. on Tuesday morning the fight appeared lost. The dam was leaking badly and there just weren't enough people to fill in the gaps. It looked as though the dam might collapse and cause destruction similar to what the Mammoth Dam collapse of 1917 had wrought upon the downstream communities.
"With the rising of the water, stout-hearted engineers at the scene of the dam also became discouraged," stated the paper. "Leaden skies in the vicinity dimmed the faith which had been freely expressed earlier in the day, and reports of the losing fight were again circulated in the waiting multitude below. The start of a light rain dampened the ardor and slowed the relief work. The alarming feature was the sinister steadiness with which the water crept higher on the reinforcement the relief workers had constructed in the dike face."
Then about 2 a.m. reinforcements arrived from Price and Castle Gate on a special train and work resumed. Slowly the team of people made progress toward shoring up the dam and by day break great strides had been made to keep it together. A pressure relief valve that had been installed was also working full force by Tuesday morning and the water level in the reservoir began to drop. Then a new crew from the mines arrived as well as a railroad maintenance crew from Salt Lake showed up to help.
But then another rainstorm came by and water started to pour into the reservoir from the streams above. The water started to raise again. The paper reported that "after 30 hours of successful combat" but bolstered by the fact they all thought of the water inundating the Price River valley, the group pressed on. Even more reinforcements arrived on Tuesday and by the end of the day the immediate danger had evaporated. The dam was somewhat secure, because so much water was by then being released that the pressure subsided.
The fight to save the dam was a combined effort. People came from all walks of life to help. In addition the mines that sent men and the railroad paid those that came to be there, according to the paper.
One report that came out about the failure of the dam was that it was affected by beavers which had built a dam near the dike. That beaver dam had collapsed only a short time before the leaks were spotted.
The next week the Governor Dern appointed a committee to take control of the dam and to study why the dam had almost failed. By this time the danger had subsided, but crews continued to work on improving the strength of the dike. The water in the dam was lowered to a very low level by the next fall so repairs could take place, but costs, questions of the state stepping up with dollars to help and the damage that had been done to the dam the in the spring of 1928 kept it from ever becoming the edifice, able to store vast amounts of water, that it once was. It was, for all intents and purposes, never very effective for storing water again.
A little over a dozen years later, at the beginning of World War II, plans would be laid to replace it with a bigger structure, the basis of which is what stands today.

What would be an alternative energy resource that could work well in the middle of a crowded city? The answer was a technology that harvests mechanical energy of walking feet and converts it to electrical energy via a special floor tile. But it was a big step from theory to practical design.
Laurence Kemball-Cook, CEO and Founder of Pavegen Systems Ltd., was working at a large energy company in the UK when he decided to solve the problem of developing an alternative energy source that would work in a crowded city. His project was to design street lamps that would be powered by photovoltaics. The problem was that there is just too much shading in a city to make a system like that function. Wind energy isn't practical either because the turbines would have to be mounted at a great height in order to rise above the cyclonic turning caused by the heat island effects of tall buildings. As for solar power, to mount photovoltaic panels on urban rooftops, you would have to deal with the clutter of structures like water towers and ventilation units, and in most cases, the roof would also have to be reinforced.
While researching off-grid solutions at Loughborough University, Laurence developed a design for a technology that can harvest the kinetic mechanical energy of walking feet and convert it to electrical energy with a specially engineered floor tile. This solution is uniquely adapted to urban environments where other technologies are not. Footsteps are a great, untapped natural resource in any setting where there is a large number of people on the go.
The idea was to build the ability to generate energy into a 600 x 450-millimeter tile. This makes for a very flexible and adaptable configuration. The tiles can be laid out to accommodate the physical constraints and walking patterns of any particular venue. How could this idea be translated into a practical product?

Class of 1990
Linebacker >>> 6-7, 220
(Miami - Florida)
1969-1973 Baltimore Colts, 1974 Green Bay Packers, 1975-1983 Oakland/Los Angeles Raiders
Theodore Paul Hendricks ... Three-time All-American ... No. 2 draft pick, 1969 ... Strong, fast, devastating tackler, used height to great advantage ... Played in 215 straight games ... In eight Pro Bowls, seven AFC title games, four Super Bowls ... All-AFC seven times, All-NFC once ... Career record: 25 blocked field goals or PATs, 26 interceptions, 16 opponents' fumble recoveries, four safeties ... Born November 1, 1947, in Guatemala City, Guatemala.
A three-time All-America as a linebacker and defensive end at the University of Miami, Ted Hendricks began his 15-season pro football career as the second-round pick of the Baltimore Colts in the 1969 AFL-NFL Draft.
Surprisingly, after five seasons the Colts traded Ted to the Green Bay Packers. The bigger surprise came, however, when the Packers allowed Hendricks to play out his option and sign with the Oakland Raiders after just one and possibly his finest season. That year he had five interceptions, blocked seven kicks, and scored a safety. He went on to play nine seasons with the Raiders before retiring after the 1983 season.
The 6-7, 220-pound Hendricks was deceivingly effective. Tall and comparatively skinny, he was strong, fast and a devastating tackler who specialized in blocking punts, field goals and extra point attempts. He was the kind of player that could totally disrupt an offense.
In his career, he intercepted 26 passes, which he returned for 332 yards and a touchdown. He also recovered 16 opponents' fumbles and scored a record-tying four safeties. Hendricks scored touchdowns on an interception, a fumble return, and a blocked punt.
Seemingly indestructible, Hendricks played in 215 straight regular-season games and also participated in eight Pro Bowl games, seven AFC championships and four Super Bowls (V with the Colts, XI, XV, XVIII with the Raiders). Ted was named All-Pro as a Colt in 1971, as a Packer in 1974, and as a Raider in 1980 and 1982. He also earned second-team All-Pro accolades five other times.
Hendricks was selected All-AFC seven times and All-NFC once. He began his career as a right linebacker but moved to the left side in the latter half of his pro tenure. In his final pro game, Hendricks was the starting left linebacker in the Los Angeles Raiders' 38-9 trouncing of the Washington Redskins in Super Bowl XVIII.

POTSDAM - The SUNY Potsdam softball team (8-18) blanked St. Lawrence University (15-12) 3-0 in game one of Mondays doubleheader, before falling 11-8 to the Saints in game two.
In the opener, Bears junior pitcher Megan Johnson (Heuvelton, N.Y) blanked SLU for the second time this season. In the finale, Saints senior pitcher Elizabeth McGinley (Canastota, N.Y.) helped herself to a victory, going 2-4 with four runs batted in. Potsdam senior Amanda Perry (South Glens Falls, N.Y.) was 7-8 in the two contests with six RBIs.
Perry got Potsdam on the board in the bottom of the first in game one.
After senior captain Heather Johnson (Heuvelton, N.Y.) walked, Perry launched a two-run bomb over the right-center field fence. Megan Johnson rolled along until the top of the fifth when the Saints loaded bases on an error and two hits with nobody out. Johnson then struck out the first hitter, got the second to pop up and ended the inning unscathed after a long fly out down the left field line. Perry led off the bottom of the sixth with double to right and junior third baseman Molly McCuin (Winthrop, N.Y.) drove her in with a single up the middle to close the scoring at 3-0. Johnson retired the side in order in the top of the seventh to seal the win.
Johnson improved to 3-3 on the season with a five-hit shutout. She struck out two and walked just one. Perry finished the game 2-3 with two RBIs and two runs scored.
Saints sophomore pitcher Kyle Plimpton (Williamsville, N.Y.) fell to 7-7 after allowing the three earned runs on four hits.
Plimpton fanned 11 in her six innings. Junior outfielder Natasha Bell (Canton, N.Y.) was 2-3 for St. Lawrence.
In game two, the Saints jumped out 1-0 in the top of the first on a hit and two errors. Perry continued her hot hitting with a two-out double in the bottom of the first. Freshman first baseman Katie Marsman (Wantagh, N.Y.) followed Perry with an RBI single to tie the game.
Saints junior outfielder Cailyn Welsh (Simsbury, Conn.) led off the second with a single and came around to score after a teammate was caught stealing. Megan Johnson put the Bears back in front with a two-run triple to right center field in the bottom of the second. Heather Johnson then drove in her sister on ground out to make it 4-2 Potsdam. St.
Lawrence scored five runs on six hits in the top of the third to grab a
7-4 lead, but Potsdam answered with two in the bottom on RBIs from Marsman and sophomore outfielder Carissa Cornwell (Homer, N.Y.). The Saints added one in the sixth and then pulled away with three in the seventh. The final blow came on a two-run double off the bat of McGinley.
Potsdam rallied for two runs in its final at-bat on a two-run bloop single from McCuin, but fell 11-8.
McGinley allowed six earned runs in 6.2 innings, while striking out four to improve to 8-6 on the season. Saints junior shortstop Leslie Stratton (Bedford, N.H.) was 4-4 with an RBI and two runs scored.
Bears junior pitcher Ashley Thayer (Winthrop, N.Y.) fell to 3-7 after being roughed up for five runs, four earned, in 2.2 innings. Freshman Carina Chirinko (Fairport, N.Y.) allowed six earned runs in the next 4.1. Perry was 4-4 with three runs scored and Marsman and McCuin each finished 2-4 with two RBIs.
The Bears are back in action this afternoon when they host SUNY Canton for a twin bill starting at 3:30 p.m.

PAUL SMITHS We discovered one of the best-kept secrets in the Adirondacks.
Its the St. Regis Caf� in the Joan Weill Student Center at Paul Smiths College. Students, with the guidance of their instructors, learn classic culinary techniques and American service and put them into practice here. The students, who are majoring in hospitality management and culinary arts, prepare and serve lunch daily in the caf�, as well as a weekly Wednesday night buffet. Both are open to students and the public.
The meals are served in a beautiful, modern, Adirondack-style dining room overlooking the serene Lower St. Regis Lake. Although the room can easily accommodate 60 or 70 guests, seating is limited to 30 indoors and 12 on the wrap-around deck. Limiting the seating and requiring reservations ensures an appropriate learning environment.
A friendly young student hostess showed us to our table. No silverware wrapped in paper napkins here. Were talking cloth napkins skillfully folded and standing upright at each place setting, fresh flowers on every table as well as eye-catching pastel-colored tablecloths. Impressive.
Rayna, our student waitress, presented us with lunch menus. The menu changes weekly with a different theme; the theme carries over to the Wednesday night buffet.
When we visited, the theme was A Taste of the Caribbean. Its a prix fixe menu $12 per person with three courses, and three options for each course. There were three in our party for lunch, so we got to try everything on the menu.
For beverages ($2 each), there are spritzers made with their own house-made syrup ginger, lemon, mint, rosemary or tarragon. Fresh-brewed iced tea and lemonade are available as well, along with Saranac soda by the bottle.
The students produce and bottle their own St. Regis Caf� birch beer, a nonalcoholic drink reminiscent of root beer. We tried some. Its really good!
Theres also a selection of wine three whites and three reds and a limited beer list.
We ordered wine by the glass ($7) a chardonnay, a pinot grigio and a sauvignon blanc all upstanding, name-brand selections. Rather than serve us filled glasses, an assistant server brought each bottle to our table. Rayna then allowed us to view the label and offered us a taste of the wine (customary when purchasing a bottle) a nice touch, we thought.
The food each and every selection was nothing less than amazing.
For the first course, there was corn and coconut soup with fresh crab; grapefruit and orange salad with roasted peanut dressing; and a tilapia and crayfish cake with mango salsa.
The soup had a coconut milk broth that included some chopped red pepper, onion and a green vegetable we think was kale. There was a generous portion of real crabmeat in the center. We found it necessary to add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors, but it was satisfying nonetheless.
The salad consisted to two perfectly cut wedges of iceberg lettuce, orange and grapefruit sections and a light, subtle peanut dressing. Curried toasted peanuts garnished the plate. It was a nice blend of flavor and texture, a perfect salad for a warm summer afternoon in the Adirondacks (or a warm winter afternoon in the Caribbean!).
The panko-crusted fish cake was perfect with its golden fried crust. Its mild seafood flavor as nicely complemented by the mango salsa. The bonus to this dish was a small pile of lightly dressed microgreens, which added an extra dimension to the plate.
The second course was even better than the first.
Jerked mahi mahi was served over jasmine rice and topped with a sweet tomato relish. Squash puree decorated the plate. The moist fish, with a mild jerk seasoning, was perfectly cooked. A hint of lime and some visible lime zest added a refreshing touch to the rice. The relish made it a perfectly balanced dish.
We know what jerk seasoning is but thought wed see if our trainee server knew. Rayna nailed it. Its a dry seasoning blend, generally a combination of chilies, thyme and spices like cinnamon, ginger, allspice and cloves along with some garlic and onion.
In most reputable kitchens, the chef will explain the dishes and ingredients to the wait staff just prior to service. This appeared to be the case here, and it was the first day of the new menu, so Rayna caught on quickly.
A grilled pork chop with barbecue sauce came on a mound of perfectly textured (just a few lumps) mashed sweet potato with a slice of grilled pineapple completing the plate.
The homemade barbecue sauce was spicy and flavorful without being hot. We picked up some flavors of Caribbean spices, and perhaps molasses and pickapeppa sauce (made from cane vinegar aged in oak barrels). We all agreed this barbecue sauce would be tasty on most anything grilled.
We liked it so much, we asked Rayna to find out if we could get the recipe. She came back from the kitchen saying, They cant give it to you, but they could sell it to you. Which we took to mean no. Oh well, it was worth a try.
Black bean cakes with poached eggs and Creole hollandaise was the perfect dish for the vegetarian in our party. In fact, the carnivores were pretty excited about it as well.
The eggs were perfectly poached, setting atop a nicely spiced rustic-textured black bean cake. The hollandaise was the perfect consistency, with hints of lemon and a lingering touch of heat from the Creole seasoning.
After the first two courses we could hardly wait for the third, dessert.
Chocolate rum and toasted coconut mousse would make any chocoholic happy, and make a convert of anyone who doesnt like chocolate (if there is such a person). The chocolate and coconut were a perfect marriage with just a hint of rum in this creamy concoction.
We were all curious when we saw avocado cheesecake on the menu. It was a crustless cheesecake served in a ramekin topped with whipped cream and slice of avocado. The taste of the avocado was bright, followed by the cheesecake flavor. It was a colorful, unusual and delicious dessert.
Gateau patate with cinnamon cr�me anglaise was delightful. Gateau is French for cake; patate means potato. Its a dessert cake made with potatoes sweet potatoes, we figured.
Raisins and spices in the slice of potato cake made it reminiscent of pumpkin pie. The cr�me anglaise (a light custard of sugar, egg yolks and hot milk) really made the dish.
This was a lunch that wed go back for in an instant. The food rivaled that of any fine-dining restaurant anywhere. The setting couldnt be better. The service was just a bit tentative at times, but we did have to take into consideration that the students rotate positions frequently, serving tables one week, working the kitchen another, and it was the first day of the new weekly menu.
We were in the process of paying our bill ($41 for the food, birch beer and coffee, $21 for the wine) when the faculty chef appeared at our table. Who wanted the barbecue sauce recipe? he asked. He told us to just leave our email address with the hostess and he would send it to us. They had made the sauce for the first time that morning, making some notes right on the recipe. He wanted to clean them up before giving the recipe to us.
The restaurant will be open through the summer session, which ends Aug. 15. It will be open throughout the school year except for college holiday periods. We understand that most days are sold out in advance, so it is important to make reservations.

OUR PICKS: Everything on the menu when we visited was excellent. Since the lunch menu changes weekly, you will most likely not get the same food that we did. But we feel that whatever the menu, it will be worth the journey to the St. Regis Caf� in the Adirondacks.

TONAWANDA, N.Y. -- A group of parents concerned about the multiple tests required of elementary and middle school-age children met Thursday night at the Alliance Church in Kenmore to discuss the changes they'd like to see.
Members of the Western New Yorkers for Public Education said they're concerned that classroom time is spent teaching kids how to get high scores on tests - not actual learning.
Parent Eric Mihelbergel said the testing is unnecessary and doesn't benefit the kids.
"It's become excessive, to the point where our children are now spending 25% of their academic year on testing," Milhelbergel said. "Testing that doesn't count toward the child's grades - testing that is used strictly to evaluate the teachers, the principals, the schools and the school districts."
The group said the state should find other ways to evaluate educators, and they encourage other concerned parents to write letters to their legislators and the state Board of Regents.

Last week saw the observance of the quintessential American holiday — our Independence Day. From coast to coast Americans celebrated with their usual vigor the greatness that is the United States. Sadly, much of that patriotism was not based on true Americanism. Instead, for a majority of our citizens, the vision of what America has been, is, and will be is but a mutation of what our nation is supposed to be about.
In its simplest terms — terms most believed by those who were intellectually raised on a diet of mainstream media and government schools — July 4 celebrates the independence that our Founding Fathers achieved from the British in 1776. But it's much deeper than that. When they cut ties with the motherland, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, and the other signers of the Declaration of Independence were also cutting ties — then and for the future — from onerous forms of government. They were founding a nation, perchance heaven on Earth, based on the basic yet so magnificent premise that "all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

Beloit, WI -- The Beloit College Men's Lacrosse team played the gracious host very early before taking off on a big run to top Defiance College 20-4 on Saturday afternoon at Strong Stadium.
After the Yellow Jackets scored the first two goals of the game the Buccaneers went on a ten-goal run to take a commanding lead. Thomas Porkka scored twice in the first quarter while Aidan Whinnery and Ryan Hazuka each tallied once to make it 4-2 after one. Hazuka had two more goals in the second quarter. He was helped by scores from Hazuka, Whinnery, Liam O'Connor, Jack Jenkins and Jacob Pritscher before Defiance stopped the run with under two minutes left before halftime, giving Beloit a 10-3 advantage at the break.
The Bucs put things away in the third quarter with seven goals while shutting down DC. Whinnery scored three times while Hazuka had two more and Pritscher and Porkka added the other two, making it 17-3 entering the fourth. Hazuka finished up his seven-goal game with two more to start the fourth quarter before Porkka closed out the Buccaneer scoring. Defiance added a goal with a minute left for the final score.
In addition to Hazuka's seven-goal game Whinnery had five goals and six assists and Porkka finished with four goals and an assist. Pritscher finished with a pair of goals and O'Connor added seven assists to go with his score.
All three Beloit goalkeepers saw action, with Trevor Kenahan recording seven saves, Jace Hodder three and Jacob Mayer one.
The Bucs have a week before hitting the road next Saturday, playing at Elmhurst College. They then close out their inaugural season on Wednesday, April 17, against Milwaukee School of Engineering at the Stadium.

MONTPELIER–North Country's boys tennis team refuses to lose.
The self-appointed "Junk Yard Dogs" were on the prowl against the Montpelier Solons this past Friday, and once again they took a bite out of their opponents, winning the match 5-2.
In the number one slot Dave Durivage tried and tried and tried again to find a weakness to exploit, but Jackson Watson did not offer one, and Watson took the match 6-0, 6-1.
Travers Parsons-Grayson had what coach Gary Atchinson called "too much game" for Matt Cerce and won easily 6-0, 6-2.
DERBY–Lake Region's tennis team earned their second win of the season on a gorgeous Saturday afternoon as they defeated U-32 5-2.
The team relied on the play of the singles players to get the win. They did not dissapoint, going 5-0 on the afternoon.
The only losses came from the doubles matches, one by forfeit, the other by defeat during play.
Here are the results from a strong day of tennis by the Lady Rangers.
1. Kelly LeBlanc vs. Erin Connor 3-6, 6-3, 1-0 (10-8)
2. Desirae Colorado vs. Claire Puleio 6-4, 6-1
3. Miranda Beaudry vs. Phina Sances 7-5, 6-1
WINOOSKI–The Lake Region Lady Rangers used a balanced attack to dispose of Winooski Thursday in schoolgirl softball action, 15-3.
Nine different Rangers got hits, while LR scored in six of seven innings to back the 6-hit pitching of Michelle Thibeault.
The Rangers got things rolling right out of the gates, dropping three runs on the Spartans in the top of the first inning behind Callie Cashin's two-run double down the right field line. The Spartans came back with a pair of runs in the bottom of the first to make it a 3-2 ballgame, but after that it was all LR.
WILLIAMSTOWN–The Rangers fell to Williamstown 13-7 this past weekend. Lake Region only gave up four hits in the contest, but eight walks, three hit batsmen, six wild pitches and four errors were the teams' undoing.
On the other side the boys in blue had a great offensive performance, getting thirteen hits, but they could not string enough together to get more than seven runs.
Standouts on offense for the Rangers were Darik Messier who tripled, had 2 doubles and a single, Matt Messier had a double and a single and Alex Menard had 3 singles.
Matt Messier took the loss in the contest.
SOUTH BURLINGTON - Marie- Paule Isabelle,76, passed away on Saturday, April 28, 2012, at Fletcher Allen Hospital with her caring children by her side. She is happily dancing in Heaven with her husband, Jean-Marc Isabelle of 53 years, who passed 10 months prior. They were longtime residences of Newport, VT and spent their winter's in West Palm Beach, FL and then moved to South Burlington, VT, three and half years ago.
She is survived by her five children: Carole Isabelle Barbeau and her husband Bruce; France; Michael and his wife Wene; Daniel and his wife Lani; and Jocelyn. She also leaves behind 4 of her lovely sisters: Jeannine delaBruere, Rita Lesperance, Doloris Lavigne, and Aurore Lavoie. She has nine grandchildren: Jennifer, Christopher, Jonathan, Danielle, Shane, Nicole, Brittany, Geo, and Joshua. They have fond memories of their Grandma playing cards, singing to them, making her delicious crepes, picking berries together then baking it into a pie, but most of all it was her revisions of common fairy tale stories she would reconstruct in a creative way that would have them laughing and excited to hear more during bedtime. She carried a special bond with all of them.
Marie, our Mom, was the perfect role model. She was the most loving, caring, giving, and selfless, hardworking and talented individual. Her connections and radiant love for all living and her "Full of Life" attitude, would have even impressed "Mother Theresa." For this and much more, her presence will be surely missed. We Love you Mom…Dance those clouds away every day!
In her memory, there will be a memorial service held at St. Mary's Church, 191 Clemont Terrance, Newport, VT, on June 8, 2012 at 11 a.m. Please join us in celebrating her new life following the service at the Eastside Restaurant, Newport, VT.
The family of Marie-Paule Isabelle, would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the staff at Fletcher Allen Hospital (Baird 3-Orthopedic) and Bayada Hospice for their superb care and concerns.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions in her honor can be made to the Vermont Alzheimer Association for research at: 300 Cornerstone Drive, Suite128, Williston, VT 05495. Arrangements made in care of Stephen C Gregory & Sons Cremation Service, Shelburne, VT, (802) 985-3523.
Stetson–– Barbara J., 83, of Bradenton, FL and Derby, VT passed away Monday, May 14, 2012. Memorial donations may be made to TideWell Hospice or the Shriner's Hospital for Children.

NEWPORT CENTER – Newport Center officials want to rejuvenate a well that has been off line for more than a decade. But first they need to deal with arsenic levels higher than permitted by the federal government.
Putting the old well on line will ease concerns about water issues during the summer months, when town officials ask 150 or so homes on the systems to conserve water.
DERBY – Tuesday, the Vermont Public Service Board (PSB) revised the schedule for the proposed Derby Line Wind project with hearings now set for the end of August.
The project, which involves the construction of two 420 foot plus turbines on farms in Derby Line, near the US-Canadian border is highly contentious and is generating international controversy.
The developer, Encore Redevelopment of Burlington, failed to notify adjoining property owners to one of the projects as required under PSB rules. Stanstead was not officially notified, either, when other surrounding towns were.

BUFFALO, N.Y. - It has been a rough couple seasons for Sabres' forward Corey Tropp. Last year, playing for the Rochester Americans, he suffered a season-ending knee injury on opening night. It was announced Wednesday that he is out indefinitely with a broken jaw suffered Sunday night in Toronto.
Tropp, who goes 6-foot and 183 pounds squared off in the third period with the 6-foot-5-inch, 217 pound Jamie Devane of the Maple Leafs. The two exchanged punches, Tropp lost his helmet during the scrum, and after a hard punch the two fell to the ice. As they fell, Devane's arm and elbow came down onto Tropp's face, slamming his head into the ice.
Coach Ron Rolston announced the injury Wednesday morning. Tropp will be out several weeks with a broken jaw.
That incident was followed by a line-brawl on the next face-off which resulted in Rolston being fined by the NHL for "player selection" and for failing to control his players. Sabre enforcer John Scott lined up next to the much smaller Leaf star Phil Kessel and immediately dropped his gloves. Kessel gave Scott a pair of two-handed slashes as he pulled away and as Scott was jumped on by Kessel's teammates.
In the end, Kessel was suspended for the remaining 3 preseason games and Leaf forward David Clarkson suspended for 10 regular season games for leaving the bench during the brawl.
Rolston updated Marcus Foligno and Cody McCormick's statuses. He expects McCormick to be ready to go on Friday, and Foligno to be ready by the first game of the regular season. Both were injured during the Leafs' game on Sunday.
Rolston also addressed the media about the fine he received from the NHL for player selection and team conduct. He says, "it's part of what they [the NHL] do when they think they have something in the best interest of the game."

Very good read by Don on players that could be potentially taken in the Rule 5 from the Orioles system.
He provides a quick report on each player listed.
There are plenty of places where you can find the specification of the Rule 5 process. The basic outline of the plan was intended for players to find additional avenues to reach the majors, when a team limits the chances of a player making the parent club. There are three basic principles that make minor league players subjected to this process.
Major League Phase:
1. The minor league player is left unprotected off the the 40 man roster as of November 20th when the roster has to be submitted to the Major league front office.
2. Left unprotected and 4 years of MilB service at age 19 or older. This is typically JC and 4 year college drafted players.
3. Left unprotected and 5 years of MilB service at age 16-18 years. These are typically international free agents and drafted high school seniors.
Minor League Phase:
In addition to the qualification rules of the major league phase, teams can protect 38 players on their AAA roster and 37 players AA.
All teams do a solid job identifying their best prospects and stash away the top 75 players. Usually, it is pitching that is selected at the AAA and AA phases to help with depth.
Below is a list of the higher profile minor league Orioles that could be subjected to their 1st waiver process, if not protected by the Orioles on the 40 man roster before November 20th. I think all fit within the top 75 prospects and should not be subjected to the AAA or AA phase, but stranger things have happened.

How to Install an Automotive Lift
Advantages: Improved road-holding, turn-in precision, and braking.
Trade-offs: The extra weight can overwhelm shock damping and springs, so loose-surface tracking stability is reduced.
The easiest way to improve handling is to "plus-size" your wheels and tires (a term coined by The Tire Rack). It means proportionally reducing sidewall height, increasing wheel diameter, and increasing width to ensure your wider tires keep the same diameter. Prices start at about $1300 for plus-sizing a Ford Focus.
Advantages: Tires stay in contact with the road on bumps and at higher speeds.
Trade-offs: Ride is stiffer, steering feels rougher.
The B12 Pro-Kit offered by spring-maker Eibach and shock-maker Bilstein combines springs and shocks that will slightly lower your car's ride height and are tuned to work together. A full setup for a new Scion FR-S would run about $1500.

MASSENA U.S. Transportation Secretary Raymond H. LaHood came to the Eisenhower Lock on Thursday to commend Seaway employees for their contribution to commerce and transportation.
For the third time since taking office in January 2009, Mr. LaHood visited employees of the St. Lawrence Seaway Development Corp. in Massena to observe recent improvements made at the facilities.
Craig H. Middlebrook, the corporations acting administrator, thanked Mr. LaHood for visiting the facility more than any other transportation secretary and for recognizing the importance of the employees who help manage the waterway.
Were thrilled and honored he would take the time to come up here, Mr. Middlebrook said. He has underscored that what the Seaway has done is create a vital economic link between the Great Lakes and the rest of the world.
Mr. LaHood touched on recent advancements at the Seaway, such as a new Draft Information System, which projects a three-dimensional image of the base of a ship to both on-board and land-based navigation equipment. This allows sailors and Seaway workers to pinpoint where a ships keel is in comparison to the riverbed.
We know precisely where the ships keel is, Mr. Middlebrook said.
Mr. LaHood also came to see the Canadian Seaway management programs recently entered relationship with Transport Canada, which is calling for the Canadian government to invest $400 million toward Seaway improvements over the next five years, according to Mr. Middlebrook.
The U.S. government has pledged to invest $85 million toward Seaway improvements over this same period of time, which Mr. Middlebrook says will result in the most investment in the Seaway since it opened in 1957.
Mr. Middlebrook expects the public funding will help spur private investment, as well. I think that in response to that public commitment, youre also seeing a private commitment, Mr. Middlebrook said.
Mr. Middlebrook said Mr. LaHoods theme for his visit was using transportation to improve the world. That is expected to be Mr. LaHoods final visit to the region as transportation secretary. Late last month President Barack Obama nominated Anthony Foxx, the mayor of Charlotte, N.C., to replace Mr. LaHood as transportation secretary.

I have been working out for ~6 months and have worked my legs once per week throughout this time, on their own day.
My legs, especially my quads, ache to the point of finding it hard to walk, particularly up or down stairs, for between 3-4 days after a leg workout. At first (the initial month or two) I thought to myself this is great because it meant I did good during my workout. Now 6 months on I am starting to think I'm doing something wrong, mainly because of the duration of soreness.
My current legs routine is:
- 4x5 Squats (on the Smith Machine because can't get the balance right for a proper squat).
- 4x10 Incline leg press machine.
- 3x15 Calf extension on leg press machine.
- 3x10 Leg extension
^ Superset with 3x10 Leg curl machine.
I'm pretty confident that I am getting adequate recovery time and resources; I get an average of 7 hours sleep per night and have been forcing myself to eat up to 5 times per day.
Some factors that may provide information about why this would be happening:
- As a web developer, I sit at a PC for the majority of the day and don't move my legs much.
- I don't make any time to stretch out my legs or anything, not sure if that will impact.
- I don't do any cardio (bike / treadmill), again not sure if that impacts.
Is this common, and is there a way to reduce the duration or magnitude of soreness?
Update (more of an FYI):
I've been training legs twice per week for around 8 months now using the following routine (with some minor variations over time), and it is very rare for me to experience pain for longer than the following day, or more painful than any other muscle group:
- Barbell Squat: 1x8 warmup, 3x6 heavy, 2x12-15 lighter (the high reps help me retain a good movement pattern).
- Hack squats: 5x6
- Straight leg deadlift: 4x8
- Lunges: 2x25
- Leg press: 3x12
- Leg extension: 2x20
- Calves (misc exercises).
Not only have I not had anywhere near the same soreness as before, but my leg strength and size has shot up massively.
I couldn't say for sure whether the DOMs have stopped because of frequency (an extra day per week), better nutrition or more rest (both apply), or just the fact that my body has finally grown used to me smashing my legs at the gym.

Saturday, August 17, 2013
This past Sunday, Lipscomb FCA sent a small group down to Zamarano, Honduras to serve for a week at Jovenes en Camino. Jovenes is a refuge for orphaned and at risk boys that not only provides a means to support and education, but also serves as a platform to share the gospel. There are a total of 60 boys currently living at Jovenes, and three sets of house parents. The team making the trip consists of Ryan Terry and Dustin Wilder from the Bison golf team, Aaron Spragg from the Bison baseball team, and Katie Collier from the Lady Bison track and field team. This group is also joined by the Nashville regional FCA director Shaun Dean
The LORD, it seems, is breaking up our trip nicely, as these last three days have been very similar in scheduling and activities. Each of the last three days, we have done our best to enter the lives of these young men. We woke up as a team between 5 and 6 a.m., met the Jovenes boys for their community breakfast, and went to work with them. The poverty in Honduras keeps them from buying and using the same tools as we deem common in the USA. For instance, when Katie, Dustin and I were working in the "Carpenteria," or Carpentry Shop, we didn't have electric sanders to smooth the rough edges of night stands and book shelves...we did them all by hand. Señor Alex taught us the ropes,and the boys checked our work and encouraged us along. It was hard work, but good working with our hands for a change. Ryan and Aaron went to "La Nueva," which is their nickname for the worksite where they keep the animals and grow crops for food. They teamed up with a group of about 20 older boys and cut back weeds with handheld machetes. We worked hard from 7-10:30 a.m., then we break for lunch. And it's worth noting that I haven't heard a single complaint yet from these young men. They take pride in their work, mixing in smiles, laughter and music. They do what they need to in school like most teenagers. And they play hard with good sportsmanship in the afternoons. They are teaching me a thing or two about how to truly enjoy life.

Is the federal government required to disclose the whys and wherefores of its targeted killing program? According to U.S. District Judge Colleen McMahon, the answer is a reluctant no.
McMahon, a judge in Manhattan, dismissed all but a tiny portion of a lawsuit seeking records concerning the Obama administration's targeted killing program, which has been used to assassinate various individuals in countries with which the United States is not formally at war. Among those killed were American citizens Anwar al-Awlaki, his 16-year-old son Abdulrahman al-Awlaki, and Samir Khan, all of whom perished in U.S. drone strikes in Yemen.
The case before the court was a combination of two separate lawsuits. The first, brought by the New York Times, sought a Justice Department memorandum providing the legal justification for the assassination of al-Awlaki. The second, brought by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), was considerably broader, asking for a variety of records concerning the targeted killing program in general and the killings of the three American citizens in Yemen in particular. The plaintiffs had requested these records under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), but the government had refused to supply them, in most cases declining to state whether they existed or not.
McMahon, an appointee of President Bill Clinton, was clearly sympathetic to the plaintiffs' case. "The FOIA requests here in issue implicate serious issues about the limits on the power of the Executive Branch under the Constitution and laws of the United States, and about whether we are indeed a nation of laws, not of men," she wrote.
The Administration has engaged in public discussion of the legality of targeted killing, even of citizens, but in cryptic and imprecise ways, generally without citing to any statute or court decision that justifies its conclusions. More fulsome disclosure of the legal reasoning on which the Administration relies to justify the targeted killing of individuals, including United States citizens, far from any recognizable "hot" field of battle, would allow for intelligent discussion and assessment of a tactic that … remains hotly debated.
