NEWPORT–In the second half of the Crusader doubleheader, UCA's boys (5-4-3) came out with a defensive strategy aimed at stopping the high-scoring Cabot Huskies (9-2-1).
Their plan was executed quite well in the first half, allowing just a goal, but in the second, Cabot tacked on four more, winning the contest 5-2.
"They gave me absolutely everything they had," said coach Alyssa DeLaBruere. "When we into this game I told them they would need to give everything they had to beat this team and they did that. Although we didn't win, I think it was a very evenly matched game."
NEWPORT–Anna Bingham had a pair of goals and an assist to lead North Country (8-3-1) over Lyndon (1-10-1) 4-0, giving coach Joe Batista his 200th career victory.
"The first thing I want to do is thank Peter Alexander, who has been a JV coach and an assistant coach for me for years, and for the last few seasons he has been a co-coach," said Batista
"He is very knowledgeable and helps out tremendously on the defensive end of things. He and I have worked very well together and I want to give him a lot of credit.
North Country 1, Milton 0
MILTON– Mariah Roberts had the only goal of the contest as the Falcons (3-7-2)picked up their third win of the year, defeating D II Milton (3-8-1) 1-0.
"It was a phenomenal game," said coach Chantelle Bouchard. "The defense was outstanding. Everyone played their positions and backed each other up when they had to."
After a scoreless first, Roberts knocked in the winner at 11:36 of the second half to give North Country the win.
Danielle Gabucci had six saves in the game for the Falcons.
NEWPORT–Jade Piette scored four minutes into overtime to give the UCA girls (2-7-2) their second victory of the season, a 3-2 win over Concord (2-7-1).
"I feel amazing," said coach Molly Smith. "These girls gave us everything. Now we are on a two game winning streak and this is my team."
The Lady Crusaders were the aggressors early in the contest, dominating the first half.
Amy DeLaBruere, who has ben playing both up front and back on defense this year, scored the first UCA goal in the thirtieth minute of the half.
NEWPORT–UCA scored two goals in the opening fifteen minutes and never looked back, defeating Mid-Vermont 2-1 on Thursday.
"It was nice to get a win and break our tie streak," said coach Alyssa DeLaBruere. "I'm glad we scored early because we can rely on our defense to hold a lead."
Justin Limoge and Ji Kim teamed up for the contest's opening tally just ten minutes into the first.
Limoge found Kim, who let a bullet fly, beating goalie Austin Sayers.
"Overall I think we played as a team and guys were passing and trying to set each other up for a goal," said Kim.
NEWPORT–With heavy rains falling and field conditions poor at best, North Country (3-7-1) battled through and defeated BFA St. Albans (2-8-1) 1-0 in a much needed win.
"We are feeling great," said coach James McKenny. "The boys deserved it, bouncing back from Mount Mansfield. Coach (Stanley) and I see these guys every day and we know what they put in to it and it is rewarding to see them get the win in front of the home crowd."
ORLEANS–Tyrah Urie had three goals and Tori Adams had the other as Lake Region (10-2) cruised to the 4-0 win over Winooski (2-9) on Tuesday afternoon.
While the win was nice, Ranger coach Brad Urie sees a trend forming with his team that has him concerned.
"We play poorly in the first half and then play pretty well in the second," said Urie. "If you look at our scoring, that is what we do. I don't know why we stay in such a funk, but hopefully we fix that before the end of the year."
Much like Urie said, the girls in white got off to a slow start against the Spartans.
Staff Reports
THETFORD–With the rain having soaked the course, the fifty-two boys and forty-one girls teams were faced with less than ideal conditions for the 2012 Wood's Trail Run on Saturday.
The race featured some of the top teams in New England and New York.
Both Lake Region and North Country were at the race and had a respectable showing.
NCU finished 18th/52 teams (507 points) on the boys side and 32nd/41 teams (833 points) on the girls side.
Alex Cotnoir crossed the line first for the boys team in 62nd place (24th Vermonter– 18:36).
NEWPORT–The final varsity game of the Maniatty weekend saw the North Country (6-3-1) and U-32 (4-2-3) girls battle it out in front of a loud and supportive mix of Falcon Faithful and Raider Nation.
The weather would go from wet, to dry, from cold to warm, back to cold but try as they might, neither team could break the 1-1 deadlock, so after 100 minutes of action, the two teams were forced to settle for the tie.
"We had a good effort," said coach Peter Alexander. "There was a little too much kickball, but they played hard and it was a gutsy effort."
NEWPORT–North Country (2-7-1) and Mount Mansfield (8-2) engaged in one slobber-knocker of a soccer game on Friday afternoon.
Bodies flying, yellow cards, red cards, screaming and yelling; It was awesome.
Sadly the Falcons lost the match in OT 2-1, but they got their money's worth out of the Cougars, that is for sure.
"It's a tough loss," said coach James McKenny. "They (MMU) capitalized when they needed to and that is the way the game goes. They have to feel pretty lucky getting out of here with a win."

Now that the weather is cooperating and stores are fully stocked with fabulous fall pieces, it's time to focus on incorporating some of the season's top trends into your wardrobe. Right now we're primarily focused on experimenting with textureÂ--think: woolly knits, metallic sequins mixed with matte pieces, and unexpected lace accentsÂ--but the inspirational options really abound. Whether it's an outrageously gorgeous leopard-print look, courtesy of Chloe Sevigny, or a festive cocktail-outfit idea, per Maria Sharapova, we've got some amazing ensemble examples that are sure to spark some ideas, so be sure to take note of them all!
Tip #1: Add a cozy cardi to a vintage-inspired dress.
Per our Look Forward to Fall story, this season is all about chic, chunky knits, so take a tip from Alexa Chung and pair an of-the-moment nubby cardi with your favorite vintage-style dress. The British beauty gave us a great example of this tip recently when she was spotted out and about in London wearing a thick white A.P.C. sweater (it's from a few seasons ago) thrown over a yellow Rachel Antonoff Hitchcock Dress ($305, 212.826.8900). We think she looks adorable and cozy, which makes her ensemble one worth emulating. To follow in Chung's stylish footsteps, simply break out your favorite vintage or vintage-style frock and add a lovely layer over it. We like Topshop's Knitted Aran Cardigan ($100) or ASOS' Arran Long Line Cardigan ($64); either one will keep you feeling warm and looking cute all winter long.
Tip #2: Try out a pair of black lace heels.
Of all the fabrics used in the F/W 10 collections, black lace was definitely one of the most popular. We saw loads of black lace blouses, dresses, and skirts, but perhaps the easiest way to wear this must-have material is on your feet, as model Julie Ordon demonstrated at the reopening of Chanel's Soho boutique earlier this month. The Swiss stunner used a pair of black lace Christian Louboutin boots (which are from a previous season and sadly sold out) to add texture and interest to her white bow-tie blouse and slim black pantsÂ--an excellent idea, indeed! If you'd like to try your own interpretation of this trend, check out Nine West's Masqurede Pumps ($69) for a classic peep-toe style or House of Harlow 1960's Lilian Lace Pumps ($198) if you prefer a hidden-platform heel. If you're more of an ankle boot sort of girl, don't miss Candela's Lace Heel Pumps ($247); they have a sturdy geometric wedge heel and a delicate lace upper, which adds up to one thoroughly modern shoe!
Tip #3: Pick animal-print pieces for your next GNO.
While no one will mock you for wearing a LBD on a GNO, it's kind of an expected look. Rather than going for your classic choice, why not vamp it up with a killer cat print instead? If you're not sure about how to pull it off, we suggest taking a page from Chloe Sevigny's noteworthy stylebook. Last month, the fashion front-runner attended HBO's post-Emmy party wearing a Lanvin leopard-print dress from the Pre-Fall 10 collection: a marvelous choice if we do say so! We love the curve-hugging silhouette and the long sleeves make it an ideal choice for fall's colder moments. If you're ready to try Sevigny's animal-print style, pick up Victoria's Secret's Three-Quarter Sleeve Minidress ($78) or ABS' Animal Print Puff Shoulder Dress ($245), and you will be the object of your friends' envy. If a feline-spotted dress is not your cup of tea, Rebecca Minkoff's Haircalf Leopard Fling Bag ($350) is another great way to incorporate the print into your GNO wardrobe rotation.
Tip #4: Mix sequins with lustrous or velvet pieces.
There's little we adore more than seeing an outfit that combines two complimentary textures to create one perfectly harmonious fall ensemble. Case in point: Maria Sharapova's masterful mix of shimmering sequins and lustrous satin at a party for Evian's new Baby On The Inside ad campaign. The Russian tennis pro combined a pair of sequin 3.1 Phillip Lim shorts (from the S/S 10 collection) with DVF's Tux Lourdes Jacket ($465) in black and navy sateen and Cole Haan's Air Swan Sandals ($198) in dark aubergine velvet. To execute your own take on Sharapova's playfully romantic ensemble, start with something sparkly like Topshop's Sequin Bloomer Shorts ($80), Cynthia Rowley's Sequin Shorts ($345) in Moss, or J. Crew's Metallic Sequined Bell Skirt ($275). Then, pair any of those pieces with Topshop's Satin Shawl Tux Blazer ($135), Juicy Couture's Schoolgirl Velvet Blazer ($228) or Rutzou's Biker Jacket in Velvet ($396) and you'll have a fashionably textured look for your next party!
Tip #5: Pair ladylike shoes with a trendy outfit.
We always love a statement shoe, but sometimes the best footwear choice is a little more demure, as the fabulous Florence Welch demonstrated at the V Festival in late August. The Florence and the Machine frontwoman wore an eye-catching ensembleÂ--high-waisted neutral shorts and a mustard short-sleeve blouse (both Topshop) with Mulberry's Lily With Leopard Bag ($1595) in Natural Giant LeopardÂ--that was toned down by a prim pair of vintage shoes. The next time you are looking for some subtle flats with a feminine vibe, we suggest checking out Vinnie's Canvas T-Bar Shoes ($50), Max Studio's Jiangsu Bow Ballet Flats ($125), or Salvatore Ferragamo's Varina Metallic Ballet Flats ($440), as each style will give any outfit a touch of polish!
Tip #6: Style your maxi with a knotted shirt.
On the off chance you're not quite sold on maxi skirts this season, simply look at Gillian Zinser's fresh styling choice for inspiration. Snapped at a party celebrating Louis Vuitton's new Santa Monica location last month, the 90210 starlet paired two unlikely pieces from said brand: a maxi skirt from the Cruise 08 collection and the Short Cotton Check Shirt ($704, 1.888.VUITTON). By knotting the otherwise casual top and wearing it with the more formal skirt, she looks incredibly chic and totally appropriate for her age. Want to assemble a similar look? First you need the perfect shirt, like Old Navy's Patterned Button-Down Collar Shirt ($20) or American Colors' Duofold Plaid Button-Down Flannel Shirt ($204): both excellent options. Knot it at the waist and style it with a black floor-length skirtÂ--try Warehouse's Maxi Seemed Skirt ($37) or L'Agence Crepe Maxi Skirt ($400)Â--and you'll have an equally stylish outfit of your own!Â--Jessica Baker

Every Friday, we'll update you on how each of the New York
Rangers' prospects playing in Canadian junior leagues, college and overseas
performed over the previous week.

This week: 3gp, 3g, 0a, 3pts, +3, 6PIM
This season:
20gp, 7g, 8a, 15pts, +1, 39PIM
Yogan scored twice on Saturday to break an eight-game
scoreless drought. Yogan has been a very
streaky player this season; he scored goals in four straight games in the
middle of October and followed up his two-goal performance on Saturday with a
goal in his next game on Wednesday, but those streaks account for all of his
tallies this season.
Kreider (NCAA)
This week: 2gp, 0g, 1a, 1pt, 0PIM
This season:
12gp, 8g, 8a, 16pts, 28PIM
Thomas (OHL)
This week: 0gp, 0g, 0a, 0pts, 0-rating, 0PIM
This season:
13gp, 5g, 5a, 10pts, -8, 6PIM
Thomas was allowed to return for Team OHL against Team
Russia on Monday in the Subway Super Series.
Thrilled to be back on the ice, Thomas netted
a goal and an assist. His suspension
is now complete and Thomas will return to the Oshawa Generals.
McIlrath (WHL)
This week: 2gp, 1g, 0a, 1pt, +1, 13PIM
season: 11gp, 2g, 3a, 5pts, 0-rating, 31PIM
McIlrath returned
to Moose Jaw's lineup and apparently has recovered from what sounded like a
concussion. He served as an
alternate captain for Thursday's matchup between Team WHL and Team Russia,
but was a
minus-4 in the game.
Fasth (Swedish Elite League)
This week: 1gp, 1g, 0a, 1pt, +1, 0PIM
This season:
19gp, 5g, 10a, 15pts, +9, 4PIM
Miller (OHL)
This week: 4gp, 2g, 7a, 9pts, +4, 4PIM
This season:
22gp, 11g, 17a, 28pts, +3, 20PIM
Miller has gotten better and better as the season has
progressed and has justified the 15th pick in the 2011 draft thus far. Miller had a huge week with nine points in
four games and has jumped ahead of the pack for the Ranger prospect scoring
lead. Miller's five-game point scoring
streak has vaulted him to 14th in the OHL. Jess Rubenstein raves about Miller's play at The
Prospect Park.
St. Croix (WHL)
This week: 2gp, 0g, 0a, 0pts, -1, 7PIM
This season:
21gp, 7g, 15a, 22pts, -1, 19PIM
St. Croix's 12-game point scoring streak was snapped on
Friday and he is now without a point in his last two games. St. Croix got into his second
WHL fight on Saturday.
Pashnin (KHL)
This week: 1gp, 0g, 1a, 1pt, +3, 0PIM
This season:

POTSDAM - The 2012-13 OFA boys basketball team gained a great deal of notoriety with its three-point shooting.
But the Blue Devils won their championships with defense.
On Saturday, coach Mark Henrys NAC Central Division Co-Champions returned their program to the New York State Class B Tournament and into the quest for the overall Section 10 Championship by prevailing in an tenacious defensive showdown and a duel of ironclad wills with Potsdam 46-36.
The 19-1 and number six state-ranked Devils ended Potsdams three-year reign over Class B. A reign which followed seven straight titles by OFA.
Potsdam plays hard all of the time and is an outstanding defensive team. To beat them three times this season is a major feat. Our defense was definitely the difference especially in that third quarter when we held them to three points, said Coach Henry.
Jack Manke played his best game of the season in the post and Colin Ross came off the bench and just gave us great energy again. He just never quits on a play and makes things happen.
And quickly.
Ross entered the game in the third quarter with OFA leading 25-22 and the collective biorhythms on the court pointing toward the possibility of an extended stalemate.
But instead six minutes of mayhem ensued where the Devils held the Stoners scoreless and reeled off a 13-1 run capped by a driving three-point play by Matt Piercey for a 38-23 lead.
Moments after Manke scored inside off a penetration assist from Pat Cosmo; Ross took a steal for layup. He followed with a fastbreak conversion and later made a flying block from behind to break up a lay-in attempt by the Stoners 6 7 center Shawn Clark.
We played extremely hard and played very well defensively but we just couldnt get our offensive execution going, said Potsdam coach Brooks Bigwarfe who helped Steve Kmack guide a Stoner team to the New York State Final Four two years ago.
But OFAs defense had a lot to do with that. They have it all and should do very well in the state tournament. And I hope they take it home.
OFA senior Pat Cosmo said that getting to the state tournament was amazing and that he and his teammates were really excited about competing for the overall Section 10 title which OFA last won in 2008 at the end of a five-year reign.
Cosmo and several of his teammates watched some of those games as youngsters and dreamed of winning a championship at Maxcy Hall.
We have talking about winning this championship since we were in fifth grade. Potsdam was a very tough team and as a team we just dug in a played great defense, said Cosmo.
Matt Piercey did a great job of staying with Konnor Bigwarfe who is a great three-point shooter and Colin Ross came in a just sparked us again. I dont even know what to call the energy Colin brings, he just plays the game right.
Doing everything right was also the signature of a balanced winning offense led by Kinnon LaRose who scored a game-high 12 points with three assists and three steals. Breton LaRose tallied eight points with six rebounds and Piercey finished with seven points. Manke and Cosmo each tallied six points with six rebounds and Ross snatched three steals to go with his four quick points.
The Devils never trailed after opening a 7-0 lead and answered every bid by Potsdam.
The first retort came on a hurried three-pointer at the buzzer of the first quarter by Cavan LaRose after a three-pointer by Konnor Bigwarfe cut the difference to 12-7.
Bigwarfe led the Stoners with nine points and Will Coleman followed with eight including six in the fourth quarter.
Owen Mitchell tallied seven points to complement a very assertive rebounding effort and Nick Vaccaro struck for five points in the first half. Jacob Bryant hit a fourth quarter three and Shawn Clark, who supplied three emphatic blocks, scored a field goal along with Tom Hobbs.
NOTES: OFA will return to Maxcy Hall on Wednesday for a 5 p.m. matchup with Class C Champion St. Lawrence in the Section 10 semi-finals. Massena (Class A) and Madrid-Waddington (Class B) will play at 7:15 p.m. following the Northern Conference Awards presentation which climaxes with the Joe Jukoski Memorial Award...OFA stands one game away from Class B Final Four and will host the winner of a game between the Section 7 and Section 2 champion at Maxcy Hall on March 9.

|Mud Slide Closes 'Three Lane,' NC 194 in Avery
|Written by Steve Frank
|Tuesday, 16 July 2013 05:30
Several people took a wild slide late last night after weeks of soaking rain finally led to a major mud slide as a section of a state highway 194 in Avery County has collapsed—a slide that will take months to rebuild and stabilize. NC 194—the 'Three Lane'—disappeared after the hillside released
late last night, taking an occupied doublewide and a singlewide mobile home with it. Several people were said to be in the homes at the time, but all managed to get out without any injuries being reported. All three lanes fell at a section near Bailey Hollow, the closing running from Blevins Creek to US 19E, and a detour has been set up with heavier vehicles taking Three Mile and Highway 19E, with local traffic in personal vehicles able to take Blevins Creek Road, itself badly damaged in the recent rains. The slide happened between 11:30 and midnight last night, and there are some reports of evacuations in the Bailey Hollow area along with the loss of the two residences there. DOT officials are at the scene to make a determination of what actions to take to restore the road.

Drug addiction has undoubtedly destroyed the lives of individuals and families alike. There are so many addictive drugs today and what this means is that people have more options; dangerous ones albeit. Cocaine, crystal meth, heroin, marijuana; these are just some of the harmful substances that can be obtained quite easily provided one is financially capable.
Alcohol which is obviously legal is also responsible for destroying millions of lives, not just in the country but all over the world as well. Substance abuse affects people from across the board: young and old; rich and poor; famous and unknown.
In particular, an increasing number of young people are falling into addiction as some of these drugs are now readily available in institutions of learning. When a person starts using drugs at a young age; what they are doing is wasting a chance to set a solid foundation. This means that their entire future is placed at risk and more so if nothing is done to counteract the habit.
The good news is that drug addiction and alcoholism can be treated, thus giving the affected individual a second chance at life. Of course it is almost impossible for an addict to treat himself or herself, and this is where a certified addiction therapists come in.
The work of an addiction therapist is to help addicts come out of addiction and stay out. These are basically counselors who work with addicts in rehab facilities and aftercare programs to help them understand how they can fight the urge to use drugs and how to handle triggers. Through counseling, an addiction therapist can make a great deal of difference in the lives of people who probably had lost hope and resigned to drug use as an escape from their troubles.
In order to practice as an addiction therapist, you will have to be certified. There are quite a number of requirements that you will need to fulfill in order to get into this field of practice, the most important one being sobriety.
This means that you cannot be a user of any addictive substances; this is quite logical because one cannot purport to offer counseling to people who are struggling with addiction when they too have a related problem. The following are some other requirements:
You must to have a high school diploma or a vocational degree. The latter is not a necessity but if you do not have it then you will be subjected to a longer period of supervision.
You will have to provide between 4000 and 6000 hours of supervised service in an addiction treatment center or program. In most cases this will take between 2 and 3 years.
In addition to the hours of service mentioned you will also need to provide up to 300 hours of direct supervisory service in an addiction treatment setting. These hours should be spread out to the various areas of addiction treatment.
Undertake up to 250 hours of educational training in the fields of treatment planning, counseling, community, family and client education, clinical evaluation, referral, documentation, service coordination and ethics.
Sit for a written addiction exam and achieve the required pass mark after which you will pay your Certified Addiction Therapist license fee.
Once you attain this certification you can seek employment in various substance abuse treatment settings as a counselor. As a full time addictions counselor you can earn a living and get various benefits depending on where you work. You can also venture into the practice as an independent counselor.
All the mentioned requirements are necessary for you to be certified as an addiction therapist but that is not all you need. In order to be effective in this line of work you must possess people skills; simply put, you need to know how to work with all kinds of people.
Patience will also prove very helpful because addiction treatment is really not a one or two-day affair. You will have to address underlying issues among addicts in order to really understand why they got into addiction in the first place.
This is never an easy thing to do since very few addicts ever open up willingly. In addition, you have to craft a working treatment therapy for all the addicts under your care, which of course will require significant time dedication to see through.
For addicts, there are certain tips that one needs to follow when searching for certified addiction therapy. These are basically guiding points that will help you find the most qualified specialist to help you out of addiction.
First and foremost the therapist should have a clear treatment plan. This treatment plan should be informed by the nature of the addiction and the individual in question. If you are seeking treatment for a loved one then you should have them accompany you when you make your first visit to the therapist so that they can undergo a psychological evaluation.
Empathy is a necessity among all addiction therapists; the counselor needs to be able to genuinely put himself or herself in your shoes. This is important because it enables them to fully understand where you as the addict are coming from; the challenges that you have faced and the fears that you hold.
A therapist who can do this is better placed to provide you with genuine help because they fully understand the gravity of the situation at hand. Such counselors are also very caring and as a result, they will make it their duty to see to it that you get better.
In addition to being empathetic, a good therapist should also be firm enough to hold the addict accountable. This is means that if you happen to deviate from the set goals and treatment plan, for example by relapsing, then he or she should be able to openly tell you that you were wrong as opposed to giving you a pass. A therapist should not turn a blind eye to wrongdoing on your part just to make you feel comfortable; it is their job to ensure that you stick to the plan to the very end.

18 U.S. Code § 3523 - Civil judgments
(a) If a person provided protection under this chapter is named as a defendant in a civil cause of action arising prior to or during the period in which the protection is provided, process in the civil proceeding may be served upon that person or an agent designated by that person for that purpose. The Attorney General shall make reasonable efforts to serve a copy of the process upon the person protected at the person's last known address. The Attorney General shall notify the plaintiff in the action whether such process has been served. If a judgment in such action is entered against that person the Attorney General shall determine whether the person has made reasonable efforts to comply with the judgment. The Attorney General shall take appropriate steps to urge the person to comply with the judgment. If the Attorney General determines that the person has not made reasonable efforts to comply with the judgment, the Attorney General may, after considering the danger to the person and upon the request of the person holding the judgment disclose the identity and location of the person to the plaintiff entitled to recovery pursuant to the judgment. Any such disclosure of the identity and location of the person shall be made upon the express condition that further disclosure by the plaintiff of such identity or location may be made only if essential to the plaintiff's efforts to recover under the judgment, and only to such additional persons as is necessary to effect the recovery. Any such disclosure or nondisclosure by the Attorney General shall not subject the United States and its officers or employees to any civil liability.
(1) Any person who holds a judgment entered by a Federal or State court in his or her favor against a person provided protection under this chapter may, upon a decision by the Attorney General to deny disclosure of the current identity and location of such protected person, bring an action against the protected person in the United States district court in the district where the person holding the judgment (hereinafter in this subsection referred to as the "petitioner") resides. Such action shall be brought within one hundred and twenty days after the petitioner requested the Attorney General to disclose the identity and location of the protected person. The complaint in such action shall contain statements that the petitioner holds a valid judgment of a Federal or State court against a person provided protection under this chapter and that the petitioner sought to enforce the judgment by requesting the Attorney General to disclose the identity and location of the protected person.
(2) The petitioner in an action described in paragraph (1) shall notify the Attorney General of the action at the same time the action is brought. The Attorney General shall appear in the action and shall affirm or deny the statements in the complaint that the person against whom the judgment is allegedly held is provided protection under this chapter and that the petitioner requested the Attorney General to disclose the identity and location of the protected person for the purpose of enforcing the judgment.
(3) Upon a determination
(B) that the Attorney General has declined to disclose to the petitioner the current identity and location of the protected person against whom the judgment was entered, the court shall appoint a guardian to act on behalf of the petitioner to enforce the judgment. The clerk of the court shall forthwith furnish the guardian with a copy of the order of appointment. The Attorney General shall disclose to the guardian the current identity and location of the protected person and any other information necessary to enable the guardian to carry out his or her duties under this subsection.
(4) It is the duty of the guardian to proceed with all reasonable diligence and dispatch to enforce the rights of the petitioner under the judgment. The guardian shall, however, endeavor to carry out such enforcement duties in a manner that maximizes, to the extent practicable, the safety and security of the protected person. In no event shall the guardian disclose the new identity or location of the protected person without the permission of the Attorney General, except that such disclosure may be made to a Federal or State court in order to enforce the judgment. Any good faith disclosure made by the guardian in the performance of his or her duties under this subsection shall not create any civil liability against the United States or any of its officers or employees.
(5) Upon appointment, the guardian shall have the power to perform any act with respect to the judgment which the petitioner could perform, including the initiation of judicial enforcement actions in any Federal or State court or the assignment of such enforcement actions to a third party under applicable Federal or State law. The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure shall apply in any action brought under this subsection to enforce a Federal or State court judgment.
(6) The costs of any action brought under this subsection with respect to a judgment, including any enforcement action described in paragraph (5), and the compensation to be allowed to a guardian appointed in any such action shall be fixed by the court and shall be apportioned among the parties as follows: the petitioner shall be assessed in the amount the petitioner would have paid to collect on the judgment in an action not arising under the provisions of this subsection; the protected person shall be assessed the costs which are normally charged to debtors in similar actions and any other costs which are incurred as a result of an action brought under this subsection. In the event that the costs and compensation to the guardian are not met by the petitioner or by the protected person, the court may, in its discretion, enter judgment against the United States for costs and fees reasonably incurred as a result of the action brought under this subsection.
(c) The provisions of this section shall not apply to a court order to which section 3524 of this title applies.

|Wreck Causes Injuries, Suspect Search
|Written by Steve Frank
|Wednesday, 04 December 2013 06:50
There were some injuries—and a traffic mess for several hours—after a crash last night on the Linville Falls Highway near Crossnore. Quite a few Avery County resources including Medics, fire and rescue were dispatched to the scene of the 9pm crash, but a number of them were cancelled
as the extent of injuries in the crash were found not as severe as first thought. But what was also launched was a search for a man said to have been involved in the crash, a suspect vehicle and description of the man given out to area law enforcement. The state patrol took the lead in the investigation when they arrived at the scene, but Avery authorities report that no one had been apprehended in the crash overnight. Traffic was tied up in the area for at least a couple of hours while the accident was sorted out.

My Life in Franceby Julia Child and Alex Prud'homme
"[A] delightful and ebulliently written new memoir....The result is a tone that is pure Julia. One can almost hear her unforgettably fluty voice uttering such Julia-isms as 'ta-da!' 'ouf!' and 'phooey!' throughout the book. Her joy just about jumps off the book's pages....Julia Child was a natural teacher, and My Life in France makes that abundantly clear." Jennifer Wolcott, The Christian Science Monitor (read the entire CSM review)
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
In her own words, here is the captivating story of Julia Child's years in France, where she fell in love with French food and found "her true calling."
From the moment the ship docked in Le Havre in the fall of 1948 and Julia watched the well-muscled stevedores unloading the cargo to the first perfectly soigné meal that she and her husband, Paul, savored in Rouen en route to Paris, where he was to work for the USIS, Julia had an awakening that changed her life. Soon this tall, outspoken gal from Pasadena, California, who didn't speak a word of French and knew nothing about the country, was steeped in the language, chatting with purveyors in the local markets, and enrolled in the Cordon Bleu.
After managing to get her degree despite the machinations of the disagreeable directrice of the school, Julia started teaching cooking classes herself, then teamed up with two fellow gourmettes, Simone Beck and Louisette Bertholle, to help them with a book they were trying to write on French cooking for Americans. Throwing herself heart and soul into making it a unique and thorough teaching book, only to suffer several rounds of painful rejection, is part of the behind-the-scenes drama that Julia reveals with her inimitable gusto and disarming honesty.
Filled with the beautiful black-and-white photographs that Paul loved to take when he was not battling bureaucrats, as well as family snapshots, this memoir is laced with wonderful stories about the French character, particularly in the world of food, and the way of life that Julia embraced so wholeheartedly. Above all, she reveals the kind of spirit and determination, the sheer love of cooking, and the drive to share that with her fellow Americans that made her the extraordinary success she became.
Le voici. Et bon appétit!
"[Julia's] ripe, fruity tone and sensibility seem to fill the book." The Oregonian
"In the same way Child's this-way-and-that television delivery never lost its viewers' attention, her elegant but unfussy prose pulls the reader into her stories." Chicago Sun-Times
"Some of the most interesting aspects of the memoir revolve around the way the three original authors of Mastering butted heads throughout the decade or more that the book took to write." Washington Post
"I was nevertheless won over by the charm of this story, as anyone who ever watched The French Chef on PBS was won over by its hostess." Baltimore Sun
Book News Annotation:
Amazingly energetic, creative, and ultimately inimitable (despite many attempts), Julia Child (d.2004) brought French cooking to American kitchens. For this book she worked with her husband's grandnephew Alex Prud'homme to record her experiences between 1948 and 1954 in Paris and Marseille (and a few later adventures), which she terms the best years of her life. Like her life, her book is full of fun and zest. Fans will savor, or devour, this account.

ADAMS Grams Diner has been a fixture in the heart of downtown Adams for many years.
It doesnt look like much from the outside. It doesnt look like much from the inside, either.
Plain and simple, Grams Diner is old and dated. The handmade sign out front has been there since the 60s. The carpet and tile on the floor are overdue for updating. The naugahyde booth seats are worn. The dark brown 70s paneling is clean and shiny but old and dated.
We got there just before the lunch hour got into full swing. Hangers-on from breakfast were still there, clutching their empty coffee cups.
By noon, the place was quickly filling up. Seniors. Families. Workers on their lunch break. Teens out of school on spring break. Customers going table to table, chit-chatting with their friends and neighbors.
And us. Like three people who just dropped in from outer space.
But we got the same smiling attention from our server, Monica, that the locals did. Do you need menus? she asked, as though we were regulars and had our favorites in mind.
Its a relatively simple menu with all the diner necessities: classic sandwiches like hot beef or turkey, grilled ham and cheese, egg salad and tuna salad. Salads and homemade soups. Deep-fried favorites. Burgers five ways. Potatoes five ways.
You can even get sides like spaghetti with sauce, vegetable of the day and, on Fridays, mac and cheese.
We got a bowl of the soup of the day, vegetable beef. The stock wasnt as beefy-hearty as we would have liked, but there were plenty of vegetables including carrots, green beans, celery, potatoes and zucchini, and a smattering of beef cubes.
Homemade beef barbecue was delicious. It came on a large bun, the meat and sauce and coleslaw flowing onto the plate. The red barbecue sauce was slightly sweet and very tasty reminded us of Dinosaur Barbecues Sensuous Slathering Sauce that we like very much.
A side of freshly made potato salad contained lots of green pepper, celery, egg and onion but very little seasoning, so we felt it was generally bland.
Bacon cheeseburger consisted of a 6-ounce char-grilled patty with three strips of crispy bacon sandwiched between two pieces of American cheese. It comes standard with the works lettuce, tomato, mayo, onions and pickles and potato chips.
As is the case with most diners, we were not asked our preference of doneness of the meat. While we might have liked it cooked less than medium-well, it was still a juicy and nicely seasoned hamburger.
Tuna melt consisted of flavorful tuna salad and yellow American cheese between two pieces of deli bread that had been uniformly grilled with lots of butter. Excellent! A side of homemade coleslaw was equally good.
Portions were more than adequate. A smart eater would have asked for the check right about now. But in the interest of fair and accurate and complete reporting, we ordered dessert.
Nutella mousse pie had a homemade-looking chocolate crumble crust filled with Nutella (hazelnut chocolate spread) whipped into a mousse-like filling not exactly light and fluffy like one would expect from a mousse, but nonetheless very good.
Monica talked up the homemade brownie and offered it three ways: plain, with vanilla ice cream or as a sundae with ice cream and hot fudge sauce.
We ordered it plain with chocolate sauce on the side. It was a very good brownie, large-sized with a bonus chocolate chips in the mix. For a chocolate lover, a delightful dessert.
Carrot cake was also a large rectangular hunk, about an inch thick, that appeared to be cut from a sheet tray. The super-sweet classic cream cheese icing was half as thick as the slab of cake causing us to scrape some of it off to be able to enjoy the moist, yummy cake underneath it.
Most of our desserts wound up in to-go boxes and were enjoyed equally well at home the next day.
Lunch for three came to $42.97 before tip.
Overall, the place was clean and homey. New owners, previous employees, took over Grams the first of the year and have plans to update the dining room and the bathrooms (sorely needed) as time and money permit.
Monica was a gem, congenial and welcoming. She has worked there for quite a while before and after the transition of ownership and knew everything about the menu.
The dated appearance of the restaurant aside, the food was solid. They also serve breakfast (eggs, pancakes, french toast, omelets) and a dozen dinner selections that include steaks, Italian specialties, chicken and seafood dishes.
Breakfast begins at 7 a.m. and is served until noon. Lunch begins at 10:30 a.m. Dinner selections are available from noon until closing, around 8 p.m.
New ownership doesnt always mean changes for the good. But the near standing-room-only lunch crowd indicates that theyre doing something right Grams was the village meeting place before and it continues to be now.

Does anyone have a coupon code they're willing to share that's applicable to ordering a tent from GoLite.com? I'm getting ready to purchase the new GoLite Imogene UL 3 and would love to have some cash left for gas to the trailhead. Thanks.
I don't think they do coupon codes anymore unless it is for a special reason like a mistake on their end. I havent seen any for about a year when they offered a % off for completing a review.Just wait a few months and they will probably run a 50% off haha!
Edited by Superfluous_Grizzly on 05/01/2013 10:35:59 MDT.
Alex, try S13BBC. It should get you a 20% discount.
I was on their website las tnite, that tent looks nice. Any reviews yet?Also it looked like everything was already pretty heavily discounted.
I just googled their site and that tent is $300. Half off. Would that help?
Everything is aways 1/2 off. They just put the MSRP at an elevated level. It has been that way for a year or so since they switched marketing strategies.Ben
The coupon will get you 20% off the website price - except "clearance" prices. It is good until May 5th on any order. In this case the tent would be 240 rather than 300. I got the coupon when I was in the local store a few weeks ago. I think it will work for anyone.

Using your coupon the total price for an Imogene UL2 is $215.99.Tent $249.99Shipping $0Tax (CA) $16Coupon -$50
Craig, Thank you so much for posting this. I owe you one! Unfortunately, I already placed my order with GoLite. I'm going to call customer service and see what they can do. I should have the tent by early next week. I'll be sure to post some pics.
Well, customer service shot me down. They said they wouldn't apply the code retroactively. I explained that I could simply return the one ordered and buy another with the code and the rep said "go for it." $299 is still a reasonable price, but c'mon.
Great deal. I'm tempted to grab the Imogene 2, but the tiny vestibule is holding me back... Anybody sat in one of these yet?
Alex, FYI, the earliest the coupon could be used was April 22. If you ordered on or after this date, they might give you a credit. It states you need to have it at "redemption." If anyone else wants to use the coupon, it works for all non clearance items, 20% off order, order must be $40 or more.
Thanks! I've been mulling a Jam 50, and just snagged one for $87, shipped, after the discount!
Yeah, I placed the order yesterday evening, May 1st. I was also issued the same coupon AFTER I placed my order, so I think that's why customer service was reluctant to apply the discount thinking I was using that code. Oh well. I guess I should have waited a bit longer before I placed my order. Thanks.
Just place a second identical order but using the coupon and then return the first when it arrives. No need to wait to return the first order before placing the second.
Dan, I've thought about doing that, but some how just "feels" wrong. A $60 savings is hard to pass up though...
You guys are brilliant gear mongerers!!! HAHAAHA JK
Thanks for sharing -- pushed me to grab a couple things I've been on hold for. Great deals.
Still worked today. Got a jampack for my father, and a shangi-la 5 as our 3 is a little too small for 2 adults, an 8 yr old, and a dog.
It just worked! Thanks for posting the code Craig, just saved $160 :)

Video: Light Voter Turnout Expected On Tuesday
BUFFALO, N.Y. - Don't look for long lines of people waiting to vote on Tuesday.
The consensus from experts 2 On Your Side spoke with on Monday is that about only one of every three voters will get to the polls on Election Day.
Why will turnout be so low?
Well traditionally, big races drive higher turnout and this year there just aren't any.
Not president, not governor, not county executive and this year's race for mayor between Democrat Byron Brown and Republican Sergio Rodriguez is all but over.
Why? There are seven Democrats in Buffalo to every Republican, and Rodriguez has had trouble raising money, forcing him to run his campaign on a shoestring.
Now low turnout in heavily Democratic Buffalo, perhaps as low as 20%, could be very good news for the two Republicans who are running countywide- Sheriff Tim Howard and Comptroller Stefan Mychajliw.
Political Analyst Mike Haselswerdt: "Well it's always better (for Republicans) to have fewer Democrats voting, and people do vote party line a lot, so it's better if that turnout is low in the city. That's why Republicans were so concerned about Rodriguez perhaps mounting a challenge for mayor (and driving up the Democratic vote).
Another area to keep an eye on Tuesday is the county legislature.
Right now Democrats control things by just a single seat 6-5, but Republicans think they may be able to pick up a seat on Tuesday and take control of the legislature.
Political Analyst Carl Calabrese: "If that happens that will change the nature of the County Executive's race in a few years just by virtue of the issues that are talked about, the subjects that are manufactured into issues and the conflict that will occur between a Republican-run legislature and a Democrat County Executive."

As scheduled spending cuts are set to hit on Friday, congressional Republicans are continuing to clash with the White House on how to address impending cuts. Republicans are accusing President Obama of "campaigning" and are urging him to help Congress find an alternative to the spending cuts rather than acting as a "road-show president."
Today, President Obama is making an appearance in Newport News, Virginia, a major military community, to address the impact that the Pentagon cuts will have on the shipbuilding facility. Likewise, President Obama's Cabinet secretaries are continuing to issue warnings about the impact of the so-called sequester if the scheduled $85 billion in cuts take effect on March 1.
The sequester, which was originally supposed to kick in January 1 and cut projected federal spending by about $109 billion per year, was delayed two months by lawmakers during the fiscal cliff negotiations. President Obama, who had initially proposed the sequester as part of the 2011 debt ceiling deal, is now attempting to delay it again. And he is in full campaign mode to do so.
House Republicans are calling out the president for taking a greater interest in campaigning than in helping to resolve the issue. Fox News reports, "House Speaker John Boehner and his deputies, emerging late Monday to field a few questions from the press, said the Virginia stop shows Obama is more interested in scoring political points than making a deal."
House Republican Whip Kevin McCarthy has nicknamed President Obama a "road-show president."
Furthermore, House Republican Leader Eric Cantor of Virginia asserts that President Obama is using his state visits to offer a "false choice" between passing tax increases or allowing steep cuts to take place. But the president contends the Republicans are holding up his proposal, which includes a mix of cuts and tax increases.
Republicans argue that there is still time to replace the sequester with cuts that make sense without involving tax hikes.

A dental bridge is an appliance used to replace one or more missing teeth. These appliances are cemented into place and cannot be removed by the patient.
As the name of this appliance implies, the bridge is made out of three (or more) pieces that fit into the open space in the mouth, "bridging" the gap. Most bridges are made of a pontic tooth or teeth (or false tooth/teeth), held together by two crowns (a "cap" that covers the tooth, approximating its normal size and shape). This trio is then attached (cemented) to the abutment teeth (the surrounding support teeth on each side of the gap).
Many people who have one or more missing teeth are candidates for a dental bridge. The teeth that will support the bridge must be in good periodontal health and have good bone support. However, the difference between proper and improper oral hygiene is an important factor in the success of the dental bridge.
There are several different types of dental bridges. Your dentist or oral health specialist will recommend the most appropriate one for your mouth condition and the location of the missing tooth or teeth.
Traditional bridge - as described above, this bridge consists of a pontic (false) tooth held together by two crowns. The trio is cemented to the surrounding teeth on each side of the gap.
Resin-bonded bridge (also known as a Maryland bridge) - this type of bridge involves fusing the pontic (false) teeth to metal bands that are bonded to the back of the abutment teeth with a resin cement. This type of procedure is common when the teeth missing are in the front of the mouth. While they are a conservative approach, they have a higher failure rate than traditional bridges.
Cantilever bridge - this type of procedure is most appropriate when there is only one abutment tooth on either side of the span.
The following recommendations will help to eliminate, or reduce, any oral health problems while your teeth are bonded by a bridge:
Brush your teeth carefully after every meal with fluoride toothpaste and a soft-bristled toothbrush, as food may become lodged, causing the gums and teeth to become infected. This may lead to further complications resulting in the loss of the bridge.
Floss daily. Your dentist, or other oral health specialist, may recommend using a floss threader to carry floss under the pontic (false) tooth so that it and the abutment teeth can be cleaned.
Have your teeth cleaned every six months by an oral health professional.
Limit your sugar and starch intake, as debris left behind from these types of foods may turn into damaging acids, which can cause cavities.
Avoid hard and/or sticky snacks. This includes foods such as popcorn, hard or chew candy, caramel, and/or nuts.
Most bridges last more than 10 years with proper oral hygiene.

Softball bounces back to win second game in annual fall tournament
Requires Adobe Flash
Requires Adobe Flash
Head Coach Kristen Peck
Tuesday, September 30, 2008
The Lady Bisons softball team split two games at home in their annual fall tournament Sept. 27.
Suffering a 2-0 loss against rival Belmont in the first game, the team came back and finished the day with a 6-0 win over Trevecca.
"Belmont is a much-improved team," Lady Bisons coach Kristin Peck said after the tournament. "But we didn't control the controllables. We didn't swing the bat and we walked in the only two runs of the game."
Junior Alaina Jacobson held the Bruins to two hits and no runs through five innings, but the offense failed to produce any runs off of four hits. Belmont used four walks and one hit in the sixth inning to get their only two runs of the game. Lady Bison sophomore Megan Rottler collected two hits in the game.
Playing Trevecca next, the Lady Bisons came out with a different attitude and went ahead in the first inning 1-0. They would continue to swing the bats to end up with a total of six runs on ten hits. Trevecca could not seem to figure out the Lady Bisons' pitching, as freshman Whitney Kiihnl and Junior Christen Campbell combined to through a no hitter, just one walk short of a perfect game.
"It was great to see our pitching shut down a team that has good hitters," Peck said. "Campbell used her defense and Whitney really stepped up to show us some big things already."
Junior center fielder Lauren Dortwegt went 2 for 4 and scored the first run of the game. Infielder Kellie Sirus went 2 for 3 with a double and two RBI. Junior Abby Lynn Wilson had two singles going 2 for 3 and scoring two runs. Freshman Caroline Mason hit her first triple of the season and junior Katie Haab ended with two RBIs for the game.
The Lady Bisons will take the field Saturday (Oct. 4) when they play former Lady Bisons in the annual Alumni game at 11 a.m. at Draper Diamond.
