Top of the class: Our Beer Print is recognized again
For the second consecutive year, we've received the Industry Leader and Gold Class distinction for our excellent sustainability performance in the RobecoSAM's Sustainability Yearbook 2014.
The Sustainability Yearbook looks back at companies' sustainability performance in 2013 and ranks them as Gold, Silver or Bronze. The top performing company from each of the 59 industries is awarded RobecoSAM Industry Leader. Click here to view a full list of Industry Leaders.
This year, RobecoSAM made it more challenging to be a yearbook member requiring companies to be within the top 15% of their industry in regards to sustainability practices. And, they must also achieve a score within 30% of their Industry Leader's score to make the cut. This effectively makes being a yearbook member a more exclusive acknowledgement of a company's sustainability practices.
This recognition proudly sits alongside last year's other Our Beer Print successes: World Beverage Sector Leader on the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index and achieving a position of leadership in the in CDP's S&P 500 Climate Disclosure Leadership Index (CDLI).
These recognitions prove that by working to improve our positive Our Beer Print, we can win the right way!

The Preserved Lemon Crate
- Exclusive
- Online Only
- Vendor Shipped
- Summary
A cross between a lemon and a sweet orange, Meyer lemons boast a sweeter, fuller, more perfumed flavor than their tarter cousins. Our gift set includes a Meyer lemon tree, lemon sea salt and lemon and citron jam. Agricultural regulations prohibit shipments to Florida and Texas.
- Our potted Meyer lemon tree can be grown and harvested on a patio or in a sunny kitchen. (See More Info and Use & Care tabs for further details.)
- The salt is made from ground, dried lemon peels blended with pure Hawaiian sea salt. Use it on vegetables or for preserving fruit from the included Meyer lemon tree.
- Made with locally grown, seasonal fruit, the Lemon & Citron Jam offers a sweet-tart balance ideal for pairing with fresh cheeses. It is handcrafted in the French tradition, with small batches made in traditional copper kettles.
- A Weck jar is the ideal receptacle for making preserved lemons. The rubber-ringed, steel-clamped glass lids create an air-tight seal.
- Salt and jam are made by Lemon Bird, a California-based company specializing in artisanal preserves.
- Jar is made in Germany.
Crate includes:
- Meyer Lemon Tree.
- Lemon Bird Sea Salt (2 oz.).
- Lemon Bird Lemon & Citron Jam (6 oz.).
- Weck jar (19.6-oz. cap.).
- Dimensions & More Info
Lemon Tree
- Zones 8–11.
- White flowers have a delicate tropical fragrance.
- Dwarf tree grows 4'–5' high.
- Suitable for container or ground planting.
- Requires bright light; a location that provides either morning sun or filtered light throughout the day is ideal.
- Fruits from spring to late summer.
- Fruit maturity: 2–3 years.
- Grown in California.
- Agricultural regulations prohibit shipment of citrus to AZ, FL, and TX.
- Use & Care
Lemon Tree
- Trees are approx. 1 year old, 12"-16" high, trunk 1/3" diam. at shipping; arrives in a 4" diam. x 10" high growers pot.
- Self-pollinator; does not require another fruit tree nearby to bear fruit.
- Planting: Citrus grows best between 55°F and 85°F. Indoor temperatures averaging 65°F are conducive to growth if light is adequate. Expose your tree to light that is as bright as possible but avoid excess heat, as this will dry out the soil too quickly. Citrus like 6 to 12 hours of sunlight a day. A location that provides morning sun or filtered light throughout the day is ideal. When grown indoors, the tree should be kept at least 24" from the window, to avoid leaf burn.
- Watering: Water the tree as soon as you receive it. Continue to water as needed to keep the soil moist but not wet. Watering frequency varies with location; tree size and climate and should be monitored and changed as local conditions change.

SILVER SPRING, Md. (WUSA) -- Ten years ago, our region came under attack by a pair of snipers. When the terror ended, 10 people were dead and three more were hurt. In fact on this day,four people were gunned down on what started as a normal morning.
The first deadly shooting took place on the night of October 2, 2002. A man was shot in the parking lot of a Shoppers Food Warehouse in Wheaton. At first it was investigated as a single random shooting. Until the next morning when four people were shot to death.
Officers eventually arrested John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo. Both were found guilty.
Malvo was sentenced to life in prison. Muhammad was sentenced to death and executed in 2009.
Most of the physical signs of those are gone, but a lot of memories remain.
Kristin Fisher reported live in Silver Spring, Maryland on Wednesday morning with a look back. See her report above.
We want to know what you remember about those attacks ten years ago. Do you think justice was served with the execution of John Allan Muhammad and the life prison sentence given to Lee Boyd Malvo?

Poaliac France
Mar. 27. 1919
Dear Folks-
I am well and we are still in France and it looks like we will stay as we always think we are going in a few days and sometimes we think we are going on a certain day and when that day comes we still stay in camp and watch boats come and go. So don't look for me as I am well and getting along fine even if it is a wet rainy country and the state of Washington is a desert compared to it as it rains all of the time here. I met one of the Bowman boys here he is in the 30th Balloon Co and is in camp expecting to leave

The FPC Lady Plainsmen played at home for the first time this season looking for their second win of the year, taking on SWCID.
Play started with two quick field goals from freshman Shakirra Smith. Freshman Jacy Judd of Fritch drained a nice three pointer. Sophomore Akwar Obong is then fouled on her shot attempt and sinks both free throws. Judd adds two more, while sophomore Natasha Thomas has a nice offensive board for FPC. Freshman Mariah Jeffries has a nice defensive block and Smith steals it for a quick two.
(Stats provided by Rob Henry)
Week 10 concluded the regular season for the Borger Bulldogs.
Two very impressive performances came from the Bulldog running backs, sophomore Kendrick Freeman and junior Dontrae Butler. Both of these outstanding players reached over 1,000 yards on the year, according to the final official stats. Freeman led with 1,014 and Butler was close behind with 1,001. Butler transferred from Tascosa this year, and did not play in the first two games of the year. They each have eight touchdowns on the year as well, and both average six yards per carry.
Four Lady Eagles received All-District honors in district 1-2A and eight Lady Eagles received Academic All-District honors.
Mikala Setliff, a junior, made the 1st Team All-District. Christa White, also a junior, received 2nd Team All-District honors.
Receiving honorable mention in the district was Blakely Meek, a junior, and Tomi Ann Salas, the lone senior for Fritch.
Academic All-District honors went to Krissi Burgin, Christa White, Mikala Setliff, Blakely Meek, Courtney Ingersoll, Bailee King, Keely Wilson, and JŌĆÖLee Judd.
Congrats, Lady Eagles!

A number of Texas citizens have decided the state should go solo and secede from the United States of America. In 1836, Texas broke away from Mexico and formed the Republic of Texas and was its own country.
In 1845, it asked to be annexed into the United States, and became the 28th state.
Borger High School varsity cheerleader Brooke West will be one of more than 600 high school cheerleaders from across the U.S. who will be performing in the 86th annual MacyŌĆÖs Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Two donations were on behalf of Paul Belton Elementary School. The first was an $80 gift from Pizza Duo and the second was a gift of $597 from Paul BeltonŌĆÖs Parent Teacher Organization. The money from the PTO will be used to reimburse the purchase of three Smart Scopes.
Another donation was on behalf of Gateway Elementary, and was in the amount of $500 from the BEST PTO. The donation will be used to help replace the popcorn machine for the school.

Downhill Viewed in the two dimensions of television, downhill looks deceptively tame. No camera angle really captures the rate at which these speed freaks travel, the steepness of the terrain, the forces they withstand or the heights at which they soar when speed and terrain conspire to spit them into the void. Should a skier make one tiny error of line or balance, one momentary loss of vision or tactical miscue and, in an instant, Olympic dreams crash and burn.

A Hogansburg woman pleaded guilty in federal court Wednesday morning to smuggling hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of alligators, tortoises and other reptiles into Canada for sale to retailers and collectors.
Olivia J. Terrance, 28, allegedly worked with a co-conspirator in Canada, Dennis Day, 38, of Cobden, Ontario, who was jointly indicted with her in August.
The U.S. case against Mr. Day has been put on hold until Canadian charges are resolved, Assistant U.S. Attorney Craig A. Benedict said. Sgt. Lee C�t� of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police said Wednesday that a case against Mr. Day is still pending in Ontario.
According to prosecutors, Mr. Day paid for reptiles to be shipped from Florida, Louisiana and California to Ms. Terrance at various addresses in Hogansburg. At least 17 such shipments arrived between June 2009 and July 2010, loaded with exotic creatures including American alligators, Chinese striped turtles, green iguanas, helmeted chameleons and Timor tree monitor lizards.
The exportation of such species requires a permit from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Prosecutors said Ms. Terrance arranged to transport the reptiles across the border to Mr. Day without permits.
Ms. Terrance was arrested on Aug. 4, 2010, after law enforcement agents followed her by car and helicopter after she received a shipment of wildlife and transported boxes of reptiles by boat across the St. Lawrence River into Canada, prosecutors said.
Ms. Terrance entered her plea before federal Judge Norman A. Mordue in U.S. District Court, Syracuse. She faces a maximum possible penalty of five years in jail and a $250,000 fine, followed by three years of supervised release and a $100 special assessment, when sentenced on Aug. 5.

Introduction to clubfoot:
What do Olympic gold medalist figure skater Kristi Yamaguchi, Super Bowl Champion All-Pro quarterback Troy Aikman, actor-writer-musician-composer Dudley Moore, Hall of Fame sports announcer Pat Sumerall, romantic poet Lord Byron, comedian-actor-writer-director Damon Wayans, British King Richard III, Heisman trophy winner Charles Woodson, and Olympic gold medalist pioneering women's soccer star Mia Hamm all have in common?
You've already guessed. They were all born with clubfeet!
What is clubfoot?
Clubfoot is a deformity of the foot and lower calf. The bones, joints, muscles, and blood vessels of the limb are abnormal.
Who gets clubfoot?
Anyone can be born with clubfoot. It can run in families and is slightly more common in boys. Most children born with clubfoot have no other congenital problems, but sometimes clubfoot occurs in association with other abnormalities or syndromes.
What are the symptoms of clubfoot?
Although the name "clubfoot" sounds like a brutish Dickensian deformity, the actual appearance is that of a normal foot turned down and inwards. Without treatment, the child would walk on the outer edge of the foot. It is stiff and cannot be brought into normal position.
Is clubfoot contagious?
How long does clubfoot last?
Clubfoot does not improve with time. It lasts until treated.
How is clubfoot diagnosed?
The diagnosis is made by physical examination. X-rays are used to further evaluate clubfoot.
How is clubfoot treated?
Clubfoot is treated by an orthopedic surgeon. Taping, splints, and casts are often used. The foot is gently stretched closer to the correct position and then placed in a cast to hold it there. This procedure is repeated multiple times to bring the foot into the best position possible.
Surgical correction may be needed.
Treatment may take months or years.
How can clubfoot be prevented?
Prevention of clubfoot is usually not possible.

Tucked away in a corner of Chautauqua County, a visit to the Jamestown Audubon Center is well worth the effort. The 600 acre sanctuary has a little something for everyone.
The land is beautiful, and bustling with wildlife. There's also a visitor's center with plenty of interesting things to explore. Education is the key at the center, and they approach their philosophy from many angles.
Jennifer Schlick is the center's Program Director.
"Our mission here is to connect people with nature and also to promote and to model environmental stewardship," Schlick said. "We try to do that in a variety of ways, from just the way we present things in the building, the way we do business from day to day, but also sometimes we teach specific things."
The land perhaps is the primary educator, surrounding the center with a lush classroom, one that reminds visitors that man and nature are indeed intertwined.
Schlick explains, "For some reason people have decided that they are separate, that they're different from or apart from the natural world, but everything comes from this planet, so I think it's important for people to remember that connection, not only for their physical well being but for their spiritual well being as well."
After a nice hike outdoors, the education continues inside the center. Educators there provide a wealth of programs and information for all ages, says Schlick.
"We put up a lot of exhibits through all 3 stories of the building, to help people get connected to nature, and to help people learn how to take care of the planet, and they're all designed to engage the young person, while at the same time teaching the grown ups that came with the kids, something that will take them to the next level, too," Schlick explained.
Animals of all species help visitors experience a closer look at Mother Nature. Fish, reptiles and amphibians are all here to enhance the learning process, but the unofficial star of the center's animal ambassadors is Liberty, a female Bald Eagle that was injured in the wild many years ago.
Now Liberty helps visitors further bond and reconnect with the home she can no longer return to.
"We take care of her here," says Schlick "And she provides a lot of talking points when people come, we can talk about endangered species, of course the Bald Eagle is no longer endangered, they're still on the threatened list, but it gives us a chance to talk about habitat , habitat improvements and so on that will help wildlife."
The center's engaging experience helps remind us on many levels of the natural world we so often take for granted.
"There are so many things that are vying for our attention that are indoors, you know, movies and malls, just all kind of things that we sometimes forget to take advantage of what's just naturally provided to us."
The center runs fascinating programs throughout the year. For more information, visit their website at http://www.jamestownaudubon.org

ALBANY Three area wrestlers capped off their respective high school careers in the best way imaginable on Saturday night at the Times Union Center as state champions.
Senior Shayne Brady became the first state champion in the history of Carthages program, while Gouverneur seniors Hunter Ayen and Dillon Stowell cemented their respective places among the best in the programs storied history.
Ive dreamed of it since I was four years old to become a state champ and it happened, Stowell said.
Brady claimed the Division I 182-pound championship with a 5-3 victory over Wantaghs James Corbett in overtime. He jumped out to a 2-0 lead at the start of the second round before falling into a 3-2 hole.
Brady gained a point with an escape in the closing seconds of round two, and the score remained tied at three apiece heading into the one-minute overtime period.
Brady took a quick shot at Corbetts legs to start the period, and almost scored a takedown, but the whistle blew, ruling Corbett out of bounds.
The two squared off in the middle of the mat again and Brady took another shot at the legs, this time scoring the two points to secure the victory and state title that had eluded him.
He was hard to hold down so I didnt want to go back on the mat with him, because I wasnt real confident there, said Brady, the Frontier Leagues first state champion since Sandy Creeks Derek Pfluger won in 2010. But I knew I could shoot in on him; he was flat-footed and I was able to pull it off.
Brady, the runner-up at 170 last year, also ended his career as the schools all-time wins leader with 209 career victories.
Im just really excited, my senior year to accomplish what Ive wanted all along through my high school career, Brady said.
Ayen fell behind 6-0 to his opponent, Bryce Mazurowski of Avon, midway through the second round of the Division II 195-pound championship bout, but he closed the deficit in an instant.
Ayen put Mazurowski on his back and looked to have the pin in his sights, and by the time the two were seperated, the score was tied at six apiece.
The match was tied and then its really just who has more guts in the last period, Ayen said.
Ayen scored a quick escape point to start the third, and later secured a 9-6 lead with a takedown. He then held on to the lead to join his teammate, Stowell, as a state champ.
Pure excitement, Ayen said. I really had to gut-check in that match and it feels really good, coming back like that.
In the 113-pound Division II final, Stowell defeated Locust Valley sophomore Nick Casella with a 6-3 decision.
Stowell and Casella wrestled an even bout all the way through. The match went into the second period as a scoreless tie, and both wrestlers scored two points in an quick exchange of reversals.
Stowell broke the 2-2 tie with a takedown 30 seconds into the third period, and was able to hold Casella off for the victory and a state title.
Stowell placed fourth at states last year and had two third-place finishes prior to that.
Three other area wrestlers lost in the semifinals on Saturday.
IHC junior Nick Koelmel, who entered undefeated, lost a heartbreaking 3-2 decision in the Division II 145-pound semifinal to Frank Garcia of Norwich, who scored with just less than a minute remaining in the bout.
Lowville senior Brandon Fayles 2-1 triple-overtime loss to Medinas Matt Montesanti in the Division II 285 semifinal was just as crushing.
Montesantis nose was busted open in the first period, and the match featured a total of seven blood stoppages. The last, and by far the longest, delay of the match came at the very end of the second overtime.
Fayle paced back and forth on the side of the mat waiting for coaches and trainers to tape a facemask to Montesantis head gear. Moments later, Montesanti scored an escape point on a visibly frustrated Fayle to deny him the chance to wrestle for a state title.
Ogdensburg Free Academy eighth-grader, Tanner Lapiene, dropped a 3-2 decision in the 99-pound Division II semifinals to Matteo Devincenzo after fighting back from a quick 2-0 deficit.
nNOTES: Prior to the finals, South Jefferson was honored as the Division II co-dual meet champions with Midlakes of Section 5. The Spartans went a perfect 28-0 in dual meets to claim their share of the title, while Midlakes finished with a 26-0 record. ... Neal Aubel, the Lowville wrestling coach of 37 years, was also honored before the finals with his induction into the state wrestling Hall of Fame. Aubel flew up from Florida to accept the induction, presented by his son, Mike.

Below is a quote from Bleacher report, Aparantly there is rumor that the orioles are interested in Dunn. The article builds the case for the Orioles needing a DH, and the Whitesox looking to dump salary.
Since the orioles have recalled Urrutia I'm not sure how we could carry both he and Dunn???
"The packages for Dunn come down to whether or not the ChiSox are willing to eat some of his salary. If they are then the package will be much better, but if not they won't get much in return.
Here are the two packages that make the most sense for Dunn.
Package 1
White Sox Trade DH Adam Dunn
Orioles Trade RHP Dylan Rheault
Package 2
White Sox Trade DH Adam Dunn and cash
Orioles Trade LHP Eduardo Rodriguez "

|Two Women Escape Burning Car
|Written by Steve Frank
|Thursday, 27 June 2013 10:08
Fire destroyed the car of a woman with a Banner Elk address this morning as she and a passenger escaped the burning vehicle. A passing fireman reported the call at NC 105 and the 105 bypass to authorities at just about 10am on the dot, the red Oldsmobile found fully engulfed in flames,
and was as Boone Police arrived,diverting traffic around the car. Boone Fire arrived moments later and extinguished the fire in short order, but the car was utterly gutted by the blaze. The two women were found near-by at a convenience store, and were interviewed by authorities about the fire, which remains under investigation.

In Motion Film Series
Join PBT on Sunday, February 24 at 2 pm for the iconic ballet film The Red Shoes starring Anton Walbrook, Marius Goring, and Moira Shearer with a special appearance of Leonard Massine. Noted as director Martin Scorcese's favorite film of all time, this film depicts the struggle between the creation of art and a life outside of it. Under the iron fist of ballet impresario Boris Lermontov, dancers realize the full promise of their talents at a price: utter devotion to their art. Young ballerina Victoria Page is poised for superstardom when she falls in love with a composer and finds herself torn between the demands of ballet and those of her heart. Like the ballets in Unspoken, this film highlights the power of dance to speak in ways that words cannot.
All screenings begin at 2 pm and are held at the George R. White Theatre located in the Point Park University Center (414 Wood St.). Parking is available on-street and in local parking ramps (see map below). Each screening will begin with a short lecture by a local scholar or artist about significant aspects of the film and its connection to the upcoming ballet. Immediately following each screening, PBT cordially invites you to a short reception in the lobby.
RSVPs are kindly requested by the Tuesday prior to the film screening. To RSVP, please contact Lisa Auel at email@example.com or 412-454-9109.
The second annual "In Motion" Film Series for the 2012-2013 season is presented in partnership with Point Park University and the John P. Harris Film Society. The In Motion Film Series showcases films that thematically connect to an upcoming production giving patrons an opportunity to experience the far-reaching effects of timeless stories and characters across many art forms.

SYRACUSE A Syracuse University academic hearing panel has upheld senior forward James Southerlands appeal to have his eligibility restored, the school announced before Sundays game with St. Johns.
Southerland, who missed the last six games, was immediately eligible to play when the ninth-ranked Orange hosted the Red Storm in a Big East Conference game at the Carrier Dome.
Southerland scored 13 points in 26 minutes off the bench during the Oranges 77-58 victory over the Red Storm.
Southerland was declared ineligible before the Villanova game on Jan. 12 due to an unspecified academic issue. He continued to practice with the team and has sat on the bench in street clothes during games.
Syracuse went 4-2 without Southerland, who was SUs second-leading scorer at 13.6 points per game at the time of his suspension. He still led the team with 33 3-point field goals before Sunday.

BSSW to MSW Bridge Program
Complete a Master Degree in Social Work at SLU with this accelerated BSSW to MSW Bridge Program
The BSSW to MSW Bridge Program allows you to complete a bachelor's degree in Social Work while providing you with an accelerated bridge to a master's degree in Social Work (MSW).
As a BSSW student, if you receive a grade of "B" or better in your courses, then you will receive up to 18 credit hours of graduate credit (called Advanced Standing) toward your MSW.
In addition, you can take up to 9 credit hours (3 courses) during your senior year from your selected MSW concentration (Community, Family or Health/Mental Health).
If you maintain a "B" average in each of the graduate level courses, you will graduate from the BSSW program with a total of 27 credit hours toward your MSW. You would then need to complete only 30 credit hours, instead of 57, to complete your MSW degree--saving you time and money. This bridge program is a great option for students who want to earn their social work degree in Missouri while keeping up with an already demanding schedule.
This program is offered in partnership between the School for Professional Studies and the School of Social Work. All courses offered through Saint Louis University School for Professional Studies are in an accelerated format designed for busy adults, with online, evening and weekend classes. If you're interested in earning your master's in social work at Saint Louis University, our admissions counselors would be happy to answer any questions you might have.
A student will need to apply and be admitted to the School for Professional Studies in accordance with SPS guidelines. They will then take SPS core courses (57 credits), elective courses (24 credits) and two social work courses (6 credits). After both social work courses and a minimum of 60 credit hours are completed, the student will need to apply to the School of Social Work as a social work major. After being accepted and completing 90 credit hours, the student will transfer to the School of Social Work to complete the remaining social work courses to obtain their BSSW and MSW degrees.
To learn more about earning your social work degree in Missouri from Saint Louis University, please contact us by filling out the form on this page or give us a call at 1-800-734-6736.

We saw Dr Guariono after my daughter had loss of vision in one eye. Dr G saw us immediately and within a few minutes after my daughter was in his office he diagnosed her with the correct diagnosis after she had an MRI. I was very happy with his knowledge and his expertise, he made us feel really comfortable and also at ease with the improvement that we seen from my daughters vision within a couple of days of treatment. He answered every question we had and encouraged us to ask questions an took the time to explain them until we understood correctly. He visited her while she was in the hospital every day even on Saturdays and Sundays overall I am very happy so far!

I am Dr. Guarino's patient. I may only be 13, but I say he is the best neurologist I know! I had my very first seizure when I was 5. Even I don't remember anything about it, my parents say that he was extremely knowledgeable and he helped them stay calm while I was in the hospital. He is a very kind, caring man. Best neurologist ever!

Dr Guarino was my son's Neuro from 6 mos old til we moved to Fresno and even after. The only time we changed was when gas went through the roof and it wasn't fiscally responsible to go all the way up there. And I am still hoping to be able to take him back up to Los Gatos because he's the best Neuro I've had any contact with!

Dr. Guarino is the first doctor my son has actually looked forward to going to see. He is a pediatric neurologist and treats my son for Attention Deficit Disorder. He LISTENS! He is very flexible with trying different meds and ideas in different ways. He talks to my son and tries to meet what he feels are my son's needs and wants. We have never waited in the office mroe than 10 minutes and he even returns email promptly. Highly recommend! He also treats many brain conditions.

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — I had a chance to try the new Sushi House on Main Street over the weekend.
First, the interior is very sleek and contemporary with a Japanese feel. The hanging lamps were very cool; the ones over the tables were loglike, the ones over the sushi bar had lovely maple leaves on them.
The restaurant wasn't very busy but it was only 5 p.m. on a Friday night. About a half-dozen other parties came and went during our meal. We've heard it's been quite busy later in the evening.
I ordered the fried calimari and Crazy Maki, a six-piece sushi roll with fried shrimp. It was served really beautifully but I was already digging into it before I thought to take a picture.
The calimari was very good. The batter was light and not greasy at all. It was served with a side sauce I also used for dipping the sushi. OK, it wasn't technically "real" sushi, but it looked good and tasted even better. My companion tried a Korean sweet and sour soup that he said had "a little bite to it."
The special was another Korean pot dish with layer rice, vegetables and meat of choice topped with a fried egg that also looked very good. The restaurant has a full liquor license and a choice of drinks like daiquiris and martinis all for $4.95.
There is a wide variety of appetizers and both traditional and nontraditional sushi, pad thai and other items, and lunch specials. Service was swift and efficient. We were in and out in less than an hour.
We've got a menu we'll try to get up.
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — Downtown now has its own sushi restaurant.
The Sushi House opened with a full menu and bar Sunday at 45 Main St.
A grand opening event is yet to be planned but the restaurant is now welcoming customers.

SDSU edged by SIUE
The South Dakota State women's and men's tennis teams were edged by SIUE, 4-3 and 6-1, respectively, on Sunday.
On the women's side, and in its second meet of the weekend, the Jackrabbits split the six singles matches with the Cougars, but SIUE won the ever-important doubles point before singles play. The point, in effect, determined the meet.
Jenny Blackburne and Ffion Davies teamed up at No. 1 for an 8-6 win versus Kali Donner and Monique Krutak. The other two SDSU doubles teams did not fare as well, however, as both suffered 8-6 defeats.
The two-out-of-three victories earned SIUE the team doubles point.
In singles, SDSU scored the first point at No. 6 singles. Tacy Haws-Lay led 2-1 in the first set when McKenzie Thomas retired.
The Jacks needed to win three of the five remaining matches to secure the team win, but was only able to win two.
Ffion Davies continued the great start to her season with a 6-4, 6-2 win versus Haley Ilcewicz at No. 3. Davies improved to 4-0 on the weekend with the two wins.
Florencia Magni notched the third SDSU point with a 6-2, 4-6, 6-2 win at No. 4 versus Amanda Miller. Unfortunately for the Jacks, that is where the scoring stopped.
All other SDSU singles players lost in straight sets and SIUE escaped with a 4-3 win.
The loss dropped the women's record to 0-2 on the young season.
The women are back in action on Friday, Feb. 1 at North Dakota. SDSU faces Montana State at 5 p.m. and North Dakota at 8 p.m. in Grand Forks.
On the men's side, SIUE once again escaped with the team doubles point after winning two of three matches. Mateus Moreira and Lucas Pereira paired up for an 8-6 win at No. 3 doubles versus Gary Dias and Nicolas Vincent.
The top SDSU doubles team of James Thorp and Parker Lawley battled, but was unable to overcome a one-break lead and lost 8-6. The Cougars won at No. 2 doubles, as well, to secure the point.
In singles, the Jacks lost two matches in third sets to put the meet out of reach. After straight-set wins at No. 1, 2 and 3, the Cougars won at No. 4 and 5 in full third sets.
Parker Lawley won the first set 6-4, but fell one break behind in the second and third sets and was unable to recover (6-3, 6-4).
Mateus Moreira rebounded from an opening-set loss to win the second set in a tiebreaker, but suffered a similar fate to the first in the third.
Luis Duque was the lone bright spot on the scoreboard for SDSU, winning his third-set super tiebreaker 10-4 at No. 6 singles.
The loss dropped the men's record to 0-3 on the season.
The men take a week off from competition and return on Saturday, Feb. 9 at Marquette. Meet time is set for 10 a.m. in Milwaukee.
"A lot of good will come out of this weekend for both SDSU teams," head coach Michael Engdahl said. "The good news is we are right on the edge of tipping these matches in our favor. Both schools we played are deep programs who did not give us anything for free. We need to get back to work this week in practice. It is only a matter of time before we mature and pull out close wins against some solid schools."

Earlier this month, respected Japanese newspaper the Nikkei ran a story, which stated that Nintendo was going to reveal a new 3DS at E3. It was supposed to have a 4.3-inch screen, and there was speculation that the portable would have a second thumbstick.
Nintendo called the report "speculation" and incorrect, and Nintendo did not reveal a new 3DS at the E3 gaming expo.
When website IGN asked Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto about the Nikkei report, the game creator replied, "I really feel like I'm satisfied with the 3DS hardware as it is. I feel like it's the best for this generation."
Continuing, Miyamoto added, "What we're thinking about right now is probably going to be for a future generation of handheld."
While Miyamoto stressed that more can be done with the 3DS hardware, don't get your hopes up for a revised 3DS anytime soon. And the next generation of portable hardware is years away...

|Two Hurt in Three-Vehicle Crash
|Written by Steve Frank
|Tuesday, 02 August 2011 05:58
Two women were injured in a 4:30pm crash on NC 105 in Boone yesterday, as three vehicles slammed into each other in a chain-reaction wreck. The crash occurred in the left northbound lane of N.C. 105 across from Bandana's as one vehicle stopped to turn at the Highland Avenue intersection.
A Chevy Blazer hit the back of a Honda Accord, which also hit the back of a Chevy Cavalier in front of it. The women driving the Cavalier and the Accord were taken by ambulance to Watauga Medical Center, while the driver and passengers of the Blazer did not appear to be injured. One of the drivers told Boone police about a brake problem, but whether that was the catalyst of the crash has not been released by Boone Police. Watauga Medics upgraded to emergency response on their way to Watauga Medical Center with the two women, said to have been suffering mostly neck pain from the crash.

FOSTER – Anthony Manzo is seated in a vintage leather barber chair with his muscular right arm extended in front of him as tattoo artist Robert Young prepares to go in.
Clean-cut and bookish-looking in his thick-rimmed eyeglasses, Young gives off the demeanor of a doctor as he pauses for a moment, studying Manzo's arm with quiet intensity. Young's hands are covered in black rubber gloves, one of which is holding aloft a metallic device that looks like some sort of oversized hypodermic.
Manzo looks away and winces as Young touches his forearm with the device – a tattoo machine – which comes alive with a rasping electrical drone reminiscent of a dental drill.
"It hurts," says Manzo. "It's bearable."
It can't hurt that much, because human canvases like Manzo are shelling out hundreds of dollars a pop for tattoos like the one he was getting this week at Young's studio, Altered Images, which also has a location in Cumberland. The smallest tattoos start at $60 each, says Young, who's been making his mark in the tattoo business for over 13 years.
Tattoos used to travel on the margins of society, if not the underbelly, but in recent years gen X-ers and twenty-somethings have erased the unsavory stigma of body art. Even for his small-town business, on a lonely stretch of the Danielson Pike not far from the Connecticut line, Young says there's been a noticeable expansion of tattoo demographics – and a big uptick in competition as more artists attempt to cash in.
"It used to be bikers, sailors, rough-and-tumble types," says Young. "Not anymore. People come in from all walks of life. And it's not just young people. A lot are older. First of all, maybe they've been waiting a long time to do it and now it's more socially acceptable. Second, they can afford it."
Today tattoos are mainstream enough for major convention centers to hold weekend-long festivals devoted to the culture, which is exactly what's happening in Providence, starting tonight. For the second year in a row, the Rhode Island Convention Center is hosting the Tattoo Expo, a monster tattoo bash featuring more than 300 artists from California to Cranston and beyond, with a strong contingent from northern Rhode Island, including Altered Images; Sin Alley, Level 7 Tattoo and Blackstone Tattoo Company, all of Pawtucket; and Henna Tree Productions of Woonsocket.
"There'll be tattoo artists from Germany, Japan, China, Nepal, Manila..." says Peter Brouillard, the executive producer of the expo. "They're coming from all over the world."
Brouillard says he expects some 10,000 visitors to pass through the convention center during the course of the expo, and he figures every one of them will have at least one tattoo.
Though it's hard to imagine applying for a job at Fidelity Investments with the image of a flaming skull plastered across one's neck, the signposts of a new social acceptance of tattoos are everywhere. Along with moonshiners, pot farmers and other trades once relegated to the shadows, tattoo artists have become a staple of reality TV. But one of the more telling examples came just over a week ago, when a New York real estate agent made national news by offering raises to employees who got tattoos of the company logo.
A 22-year-old waiter who works in a trendy beachside bistro, Manzo, of North Providence, was getting his fourth tattoo from Altered Images this week, a portrait inspired by his late mother. Judy Manzo was one of 100 victims of the 2003 fire at The Station nightclub in West Warwick.
"I was only 12 years old," he says.
Manzo likes the idea of paying tribute to his mother with a permanent image on his body, but he has other tattoos that express more personal issues. His first was a large image on his ribcage designed to look as if a skeletal monster is ripping its way free from the inside of his body. It's about "inner demons," explains Manzo.
SOME PEOPLE get tattoos to look mean or tough, others just want to decorate their bodies with a brand that makes them seem more unique and individualistic, he says. The bottom line is tattoos attract attention, and that's what counts – at least for Manzo.
"I like getting looked at," he says.
Everybody has their reasons. A few feet away from Manzo, in a separate booth, tattoo artist Melissa White is hovering over an elderly woman with a tattoo machine.
The silver-haired woman got straight to the point when someone asked why she was getting a tattoo. "Because I never had eyebrows and I wanted some," she says.
She and Manzo are among the kinds of people driving a national boom in the tattoo business. The Pew Research Center, a widely respected think-tank, estimates that Americans are spending about $1.65 billion a year on skin pix. About 45 million Americans are believed to be sporting one, most of them men, but one of the fastest-growing groups of tattoo consumers is younger women.
Some living artworks are content with a butterfly on their ankle or some other discreetly located image that can be finished in an hour or two, says Young, but other consumers aren't happy until their entire bodies are covered. He says he once had a customer who came in every Friday for five years to be tattooed, from head to toe. Young says he started out charging by the hour, but after a while they worked out a sensible fee.
"He ended up getting the frequent flyer discount," says Young.
What is a tattoo, technically speaking?
It's actually a form of scarification, or ritual scarring of the skin, a practice some anthropologists believe dates back to prehistoric times. Though older methods of marking human flesh with indelible images were quite primitive, the modern technique involves the use of the tattoo machine, a device that's part-sewing needle, part paintbrush.
The tattoo machine is tipped with tiny needles that pulsate to and fro, the same way a woodpecker hits a tree with its beak, only much faster. The ink essentially sits on the exterior of the needles. When the ink-stained needles penetrate the skin, some of the color is left behind.
"A little bit goes a long way," says Young, as he gently daubs Manzo's arm with the vibrating tip of the machine.
Despite the tattoo boom, Youngs says the surging demand for body art doesn't always trickle down to the pocketbook. He says there is also more competition, and not just from reputable, licensed dealers who are properly monitored by health regulators, as he is. He says the business is full of back-door, fly-by-nighters who are neither skilled artists nor particularly concerned about their clients' well-being.
By skirting the regulations, he says, they're also able to work more cheaply, so they draw customers away from reputable artists.
"Tattooing has never been so popular," he says. "And I've never been slower. I can eke out a living here and I'm pretty happy with that. But if you're in this for the money, you're in it for the wrong reason. I get into it for the love of the art form."
Young, who grew up in Cumberland, says he's had a talent for visual arts as long as he can remember. He paints and draws in a variety of other media besides ink and the human body, but the latter, he says, is the most satisfying. Painting pictures on canvas is a lonely business, he says, but tattooing offers an element of social interaction that he craves.
"This is great," he says. "I get to meet people from all walks of life, and the work isn't hanging on a wall somewhere. It's walking through life."
He never had any formal training in tattooing, and few of his kind have, though there is a school or two for it if you look hard enough. He started out years ago drawing sketches on paper for other tattoo artists to copy on skin. Eventually, some of his friends who were bona fide tattoo artists took him under their wing and showed him how they did it.
