By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
While several locations in Utah experienced problems with the touch screen voting machines used for the first time in a general election in the state, Carbon County officials encountered few glitches in the operating the machines last Tuesday.
"All together, we had 73 machines out in the field today," said county clerk/auditor Robert Pero on Nov. 7 as the 2006 election returns started to come into his office to be counted. "It looks like all of them performed well and we had no real problems."
However, several local polling places encountered a few minor complications, although none of the problems had to do with the electronic voting process.
Workers at the Carbon County courthouse were in the office until almost midnight, not tallying ballots, but rectifying some problems in physical voter counts made by poll judges as opposed to the numbers registered on the machines.
Poll judges had to decommission the machines by removing the paper ballot and memory cards, then sealing the units before they could bring the information into the county clerk's office.
The process took time, even though many of the polling judges had some practice at the primary election last summer when the machines were first used.
After arriving at the county clerk's office, most of the polling judges had positive comments about the machines.
There were more complaints about Carbon County residents who didn't understand that they needed to be registered to vote than about the equipment.
"Some of the counties in the state experienced difficulties with their machines," said Pero. "One county didn't allow Diebold to send representatives into the area to help today and that was the county that had the most problems."
Pero was referring to Utah County, where officials decided to complete the election process alone.
One place in Utah County reported that, when the doors opened, the electronic machines were not functioning at all. The polling workers couldn't get the equipment up and running until 9 a.m., at which point a lot of voters had left because they could not wait any longer.
"We had no problems like that here," stated Pero.
Carbon County had five "rovers" from Diebold, the manufacturer of the voting machines, who helped out at the various polling places when there were questions or problems with the equipment.
One problem reported locally was that the machines timed out in a few cases and locked voters out of the machines.
Poll workers then had to update the voters' cards and restart the balloting process.
Pero said the machines time out when nothing is entered for about a 90 seconds, so some voters experienced that difficulty.
The machines beep before timing out. But one local poll worker told the Sun Advocate that, when the soft beeping happened, there was enough noise in the area and people did not hear the sound.
Once the information and records were checked at the county clerk's office, the packet with the memory cards was passed into a special locked room and the votes were downloaded.
"We took a part of our office and remodeled it so there is a special room for counting the votes," said deputy clerk Alexis Horsley. "The state requires us to have a separate and special server to do this process."
The votes contained on the memory cards were and the tabulations showed up on the county's Web site in a few minutes.
"It was a good day," concluded Horsley. "This is a great way to do an election."

What do you make of it? Everyone has the same after credit scene regardless of how the story played out (I told Christa and Omid to wait for clem by the train) So could the two people be christa and omid ? I hope so however it probably wont so TT can start with EVERYONE on the same page again for episode 2. Not to be that guy, but if that happened then what happened to christa and omid.
Anyway the main point of the thread is what do you think about the after credits scene. predictions. They both looked like guys from afar but then again im just speculating.

Buzz: Is Marty Mornhinweg the New OC?
According to Adam Caplan and Manish Mehta, the Jets will name Marty Mornhinweg their offensive coordinator.
Mornhinweg has been with the Eagles since 2003 and has spent the last six seasons as offensive coordinator and assistant Head Coach. He has been a proponent of the West Coast Offense, which would represent a shift in philosophy for the Jets, who had been focused on a "ground and pound" attack over the past few years.
In the late 1990's Mornhinweg was the offensive coordinator and QB coach for the Packers and 49ers. He was also head coach of the Lions for two seasons where he had a record of 5-27.
While there is some speculation that this could lead to Mike Vick being reunited with Mornhinweg, sources have apparently told the Daily News that this is not something that is likely at the moment.

Last year, Woonsocket and St. Raphael staged a thrilling Division II quarterfinal-round playoff contest. A touchdown produced in the waning seconds of regulation enabled the Saints to force overtime, this after the Novans held a 21-13 advantage with just 90 seconds remaining.
The extra session produced even more dramatics. St. Raphael drew first blood to go up 28-21 before a scoring strike from then-starting quarterback Brett Bouchard brought Woonsocket to within a single point. Instead of playing for the tie that would have resulted in a second free period, Novans head coach Carnell Henderson elected to send his offense back out to attempt the two-point conversion.
The gutsy calls paid off, as Kyle Mulvey fought his way into the end zone for what proved to be the final play on a memorable night at Pariseau Field. Woonsocket moved on to the next round thanks to a 29-28 triumph while SRA trudged off its home field knowing that its final game of season would be a non-leaguer against Moses Brown on Thanksgiving Eve.
Here is some good news for the area high school football enthusiasts who were present in Pawtucket that Saturday night in November – another playoff matchup between Woonsocket and St. Raphael is on the docket. Come Saturday afternoon at 1:30, the two schools will once again cross paths in the Division quarters. This time, Woonsocket's Barry Field will serve as the location.
Woonsocket is the top seed on the Division II-A side after posting a 6-1 record in the regular season. SRA ended up with the No. 4 seed in Division II-B after finishing 5-2. The Saints were one of five teams in the subdivision to post such a record, the other four including defending Super Bowl champion Cumberland, West Warwick, Rogers and North Kingstown.
Due to tiebreakers, the Wizards were awarded the top seed in II-B followed in order by the Clippers, the Vikings and the Saints. The Skippers found themselves on the outside looking in, this despite beating both West Warwick and Cumberland.
Speaking of the Clippers, they will open the second season Friday night at Tucker Field against II-A three seed Coventry, which went 4-3. The final two quarterfinal contests include Mount Hope, the fourth seed in II-A, traveling to West Warwick on Saturday. No. 2 II-A seed Johnston will host Rogers in a game that could take place either Friday or Saturday.
In a new twist, next weekend's winners will play their semifinal-round contest the weekend of Nov. 22-23. The change means that Division II teams do not have to worry about playing a playoff game the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, which remains the case in Divisions I, III and IV.
"It was a straw poll during the week, and everyone chose that for Division II," said Woonsocket Athletic Director George Nasuti about holding the semis before Thanksgiving. "It was a resounding yes."
Depending on when the two remaining Division II teams play their traditional Thanksgiving contest, they will have either seven or eight days off prior to the Super Bowl, which is on the docket for Sunday, Dec. 8.

Teen washing Porsche fends off carjackers in Ormond Beach
Police: 2 men approached 17-year-old at Sunshine Car Wash
Ormond Beach police say they are investigating an attempted carjacking that occurred Tuesday morning at the Sunshine Car Wash.
Police said a 17-year-old was approached by two young men who implied they had a weapon and attempted to pull the teen out of the vehicle and take his keys. No weapon was seen, said police.
The teen fought back and managed to get into his vehicle, described by police as a 2005 Porsche SUV, and drove away. He went directly home, and his parents called the police.
The two assailants were described by the teen as in their late teens to early 20s. One of the culprits wore a black leather coat and blue jeans and the other wore a red basketball shirt and black shorts.
Police said the men fled on foot after the attempted carjacking.
Anyone with any information about the incident is urged to contact Ormond Beach police at 386-677-0731 or Crime Stoppers at 888-277-TIPS.

Buick's latest LaCrosse is one of the new General Motors' best success stories. Sales of the nameplate have increased dramatically, and more than one-third of all buyers are new to the General Motors family. Better yet, transaction prices are up by a whopping $8500, despite the fact that sticker prices haven't significantly increased.
In the days of the old GM, we wouldn't expect much in the way of changes so soon - the LaCrosse debuted in June 2009 - but the born-again automaker seems to think there's always room for improvement. The first major addition, a four-cylinder engine, is already in production.
Hello, Ecotec; So Long, Three-Point-Oh
When the LaCrossed first appeared, buyers had two engine choices. A direct-injection 3.0-liter V-6 served as the base engine in both the high-volume CX and CXL models, while the direct-injection 3.6-liter V-6 - used in the likes of the Cadillac CTS and STS - was offered only in top-spec CXS trim.
For 2010, Buick is catering to customers looking for better fuel economy by adding the direct-injection 2.4-liter Ecotec I-4 to the portfolio. This engine launched late last year in the Chevrolet Equinox/GMC Terrain crossover, and the specifications are identical. The engine is rated at 182 horsepower at 6700 rpm, and a respectable 172 pound-feet of torque at 4700 rpm. A six-speed automatic is standard, and routes power to the front wheels.
The four-cylinder does give up a significant amount of power compared to the 3.0-liter's 255 horsepower, but there are offsetting fuel economy gains. According to the EPA, the 2.4-liter LaCrosse returns 19 mpg in the city and 30 mpg in highway driving - a considerable improvement over the 3.0-liter car's 17/26 mpg ratings.
For the 2010 model year, the Ecotec is only offered on the CX trim line, but Buick plans on expanding its availability. Come 2011, the 3.0-liter V-6 will be dropped, and the I-4 will serve as the standard engine on both the CX and the CXL. The 3.6-liter V-6 will be available on both the CXL and the CXS, and can be paired with all-wheel drive on either model.
The Structure Remains The Same
Although LaCrosse CXL models will receive some chassis improvements later this year, the four-cylinder CX receives no major updates outside of its engine compartment. That's not a bad thing, mind you. GM's Epsilon II platform lends the car a stiff, solid foundation, helping the LaCrosse avoid the wallowing ride traditionally associated with large Buicks.
Buyers won't have to sacrifice much style or substance by opting for the four-cylinder. The CX largely resembles its upscale siblings, although there are a few key differences to set it apart from a CXL or CXS. Leather isn't available, nor is a navigation system or fog lamps. Virtually every other upgrade, however - i.e. 17-inch aluminum wheels, dual-zone climate control, Bluetooth phone pairing, a remote starter, and a Harmon/Kardon sound system - remains optional.
Behind the Wheel
Like its siblings, the four-cylinder LaCrosse is incredibly quiet. Buick's hallmark "QuietTune" insulation package surely helps, but so to does the performance of the engine itself. The Ecotec isn't thrashy when pushed hard, and is virtually silent when maintaining a given speed. Power is adequate for the car, but those desiring something sportier should go for a CXS.
We were impressed with the refinements GM has given its six-speed automatic. Early examples would occasionally deliver a harsh shift, but the gearbox in our test car was impeccably smooth. Gas misers will appreciate the transmission's tendency to quickly work its way into higher gears to maximize fuel economy, but those who want a little more fun aren't forgotten - both a "sport shift" algorithm and manual shift controls allow drivers to use more of the rev band.
Although a far cry from the stereotypical floaty Buick ride, the LaCrosse CX's suspension tuning is somewhat softer than that in the CXL and CXS models. It's not ready for the Nurburgring, but it did a good job controlling body motions over the winding country roads we drove in northern Virginia. Our only complaints lie with the feel of the brake pedal and the electric power steering - we think Buick engineers can easily add a little more weight to both.
CX versus CXL?
Buick says the four-cylinder will account for roughly 25 percent of all LaCrosse production, and we think that's a safe estimate. The 2.4-liter delivers reasonable power and impressive fuel economy, the latter being an increasingly important factor in today's midsize luxury segment.
We're more interested, however, in how sales will split between the four-cylinder CX and CXL models. Buick is keen to offer the Ecotec to customers who desire the features associated with the CXL trim level, but unless you must have navigation or leather seating, there's no reason to wait for the 2011 CXL to reach dealers.
On that note, 2010 LaCrosse CX 2.4 models are already rolling off the assembly line in Fairfax, Kansas. Base price for the four-cylinder model is $26,995 (including $750 in destination fees), but with every available factory-installed option, that figure can rise to $28,995.

North country gun owners unhappy with provisions in the NY SAFE Act law and the way the legislation was passed are organizing carpools and buses to go to Albany Feb. 28 for a rally and lobby day sponsored by New York State Rifle & Pistol Association and Shooters Committee on Political Education.
Im just a gun owner who feels like Ive had enough. Were not going down to be rabble rousers. This is the American way of doing things. The last thing we want to do is turn this into a stereotype. Were God-fearing law-abiding citizens, said Lawrence I. Kring, a retired state Department of Environmental Conservation lieutenant. If its a law people want, you can bring it out in the daytime. If you know its not going to fly, this is the way you do it, in the middle of the night.
Opponents have criticized the swift passage of the law without public hearings and various provisions they find onerous.
The law reclassifies many firearms as assault weapons, requires frequent permit recertifications, and cuts the number of legal rounds in a firearm.
While applauding some aspects of the law it finds helpful, the state Sheriffs Association has called for modifications to meet its concerns and those of the public.
The Lewis County legislators passed a resolution calling on the state to annul the statute, and Jefferson County lawmakers are considering similar action.
The St. Lawrence County Board of Legislators may also have a response.
I think its got to be discussed some time, Legislator Donald A. Peck, R-Gouverneur, said. Its something that does need some attention.
Gun owners from across the state are expected to descend on Albany to voice their opposition from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 a.m. Feb. 28 at the Well of the Legislative Office Building.
After the rally, constituents may talk with individual legislators.
St. Lawrence County residents can attend an organizational breakfast from 7 to 11 a.m. Sunday at the Amvets in Ogdensburg to sign up for a bus or donate money to the cause. They may contact Mr. Kring, firstname.lastname@example.com, 323-2107, in the Ogdensburg area, or Joel J. LaPierre, firstname.lastname@example.com, 486-2909 in Gouverneur.
Mr. LaPierre said he appreciated the laws provisions that pertain to mental health and that the killing of emergency first responders would have enhanced penalties but that those related to firearms are an over-reach.
All the gun stuff connected to it is ridiculous. It doesnt make any of us safer. I guess we just feel its an infringement of our rights, he said. We had 20, 30 people right off the bat who wanted to go down. Right now, we have one bus going.
Mr. Kring said his primary objection was to the murkiness surrounding ammunition sales and the requirement of a five-year recertification of pistol permit status.
Itll be an expense, and the state cant afford it. I can see them charging per gun, he said. Its going to lead to a tax. Its a back door way of taking guns away.

CANTON A convicted felon and his 70-year-old mother have been indicted after police reported finding a cache of weapons in their Fowler home last month, including AK-47 and Bushmaster rifles.
Ronald F. Baker,45, and Louise J. Baker, 70, both of 1442 County Route 24, were among five people indicted in four separate cases handed up in St. Lawrence County Court Monday morning.
State police arrested the Bakers Jan. 5 after Mr. Baker allegedly became combative with rescue workers who responded to aid a family member who was having a seizure, trying to prevent them from entering the home.
Troopers called to the scene said they found several guns and ammunition which Mr. Baker, as a convicted felon, is not permitted to own. Those weapons included a loaded .32-caliber revolver, a large-capacity feeding device capable of holding 30 rounds of ammunition, a .223 caliber Bushmaster XM-15 rifle, an Egyptian Maadi AK-47 rifle and a .40 caliber Hi-Point rifle, according to the indictment.
Mr. Bakers felony conviction arose from a 1986 incident in which he and his brother, Sylvenus R. Baker, threatened three people with knives after going to a Gouverneur mans home to collect a debt. The brothers were sentenced to prison following trial and conviction in County Court.
In October 2000, Mr. Baker was fined $625 after pleading guilty in Antwerp Town Court to fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon after troopers found a shotgun in his vehicle.
Under Mondays indictment, Mr. Baker faces six counts of third-degree criminal possession of a weapon and three counts of fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon. His mother was indicted on four counts of third-degree criminal possession of a weapon and three counts of fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon.
Also facing charges:
■ Richard L. Cyrus, 20, 90 West Main St., Apt. 6, Gouverneur, was indicted in connection with a string of vehicle burglaries last month in the village of Gouverneur, with an alleged haul ranging from a coin purse to consumer electronics and a shotgun.
Mr. Cyrus faces two counts of fourth-degree criminal possession of stolen property and one count of fifth-degree criminal possession of stolen property. Police said Mr. Cyrus had been living a partly nomadic lifestyle, and the stolen goods were found at the apartment where he was staying. Specifically mentioned in the indictment were a shotgun, a debit card, an iPod and two mobile phones.
■ Jared C. Adner, 18, 8 Stevens St., Canton, was indicted on one count each of fourth-degree criminal possession of stolen property and second degree burglary. Investigators said Mr. Adner illegally entered a town of Pierrepont home in January or February 2012 and was later found in possession of a stolen .22-caliber rifle.
■ Alex J. Amyot, 37, 1900 State Highway 345, Madrid, was indicted on one count of third-degree grand larceny in connection with the alleged theft of more than $3,000 worth of metal railway-related items belonging to Thomas Fiacco in August in the town of Potsdam.
Mr. Amyot, who was extradited from Florida last month to face the charge, was previously convicted of felony driving while intoxicated in 2008, according to indictment papers.

Here.We.Go- UPDATED
[blackbirdpie url="https://twitter.com/#!/FisolaNYDN/status/179925283057569792″%5D
According to the source, Grunwald has had just one conversation with Anthony since he became GM. And D'Antoni rarely talks to Anthony after games, especially since Anthony's return from a groin injury. The Knicks have lost 8 of 10 games since then to fall to 18-24 and out of playoff position.
Anthony is not close to owner James Dolan the way Amar'e Stoudemire is. The source said Anthony gets along best with assistant GM Allan Houston, who eventually could succeed Grunwald.
"He knows Glen doesn't like him,'' the source said.
It would seem unlikely — and ill-advised — for the Knicks to pull off a trade for Anthony on such short notice before Thursday's deadline.
Though Stoudemire lobbied for the Knicks to trade for Anthony, the pair's friendship has not flourished.
"They're not as close as people think they are,'' the source said. "It's an awkward relationship.'' more
As we mentioned earlier this year the awkwardness between Melo and Stoudemire stems from Anthony's desire to bring Chris Paul here. The Knicks took a wild swing by attempting to deal Stoudemire for Paul the same day they made the deal to bring Tyson Chandler to NY.
I spoke to a source yesterday with direct knowledge of the situation in regards to the NY Post report suggesting that Melo didn't sign off on J.R. Smith coming to NY. The source completely dismissed the report.
The Daily News is reporting that one executive would prefer to trade Melo, but is reporting that owner James Dolan isn't interested in doing so.
The source would not reveal the name of the executive pushing to trade Anthony but the Daily News has learned that Anthony still has two formidable allies in his corner; Dolan, the Chairman of Madison Square Garden and MSG President Scott O'Neil, who both played significant roles in bringing Anthony to New York.
According to a source, Dolan is not ready to give up on his signature acquisition. In fact, Dolan has let it be known that he does not intend to move any of his top players prior to Thursday's trading deadline.
"He said he's not trading anyone," said the source, with direct contact with Dolan. "He said it's up to the coach to figure it out."
Today should be an interesting day. I've talked to several people who say the Knicks are not actively looking to trade any of their high priced players but are looking to land picks in this year's draft. The problem is Toney Douglas, who they have been shopping, hasn't played in months.
As the deadline approaches, based on what I've heard, expect the Knicks to stand pat unless Orlando decides they want to engage in conversations about Dwight Howard.
The NY Times is reporting a 14 plus one divide.
Anthony is breaking plays and demanding the ball in isolation, then snapping at teammates when they fail to get it to him. It happened late Monday, when Anthony called for the ball in the post, then smacked his hands in anger after Landry Fields went elsewhere. More often, Anthony saves the criticism for more private moments, on the bench or in the locker room.
If you remember that Fields play, Melo was right to be upset. Fields has to pass him the ball as he had his man sealed. Fields chose not to. It was a bad decision. I'm not saying it was intentional as Fields often gets passive especially when he has turned the ball over on previous possessions.
Melo sulking during the ensuing plays was the most egregious part.
Here's what I hear. As much as people want to talk trades and that buzz always captivates the city like a wave, Mike D'Antoni lost the owner's ear a long time ago. This is about him making the pieces fit. The owner is tired of hearing excuses.
This is not to excuse Melo from this. His body language and effort at times has been inexcusable. His leadership in the locker room is non-existent.
Speaking of the locker room, just so that we can get every report in, ESPN is pointing the finger at the coach.
D'Antoni, hailed as an offensive genius during his successful tenure in Phoenix, has lost the Knicks' locker room, the sources say.
"The players like Mike as a person," one source said. "They think he's a good guy. But he doesn't have the respect of the team anymore."
D'Antoni is in the last year of a four-year deal and all indications are that he will not be brought back after this season; that is, if he survives the rest of this season. The Knicks are expected to make a run at Phil Jackson, who retired from the Lakers last year with 11 NBA titles.
What a mess at MSG.

Tiffani F. Amo hasnt been stateside in a year and a half.
Since the fall of 2011, the 25-year-old Heuvelton native has spent her time visiting Australia, Indonesia and New Zealand, where she currently lives.
Ive been here since the beginning of February, Ms. Amo said of her time in New Zealand. She currently works in a caf� in Wellington, the nations capital.
I came here because its really close to Australia. Its easy to get a work visa, and I needed the work, she said.
Ms. Amo isnt planning on staying in Wellington much longer.
She is already planning on moving north to New Plymouth, New Zealand, where she will stay until she feels like moving on.
I dont know what Im going to do once I get there, she said, but thats part of the adventure.
Ms. Amo has been traveling for most of her life.
Her mother, Heidi Broome, lives in St. Petersburg, Fla., while her father, Peter Amo, lives in Heuvelton. She spent a significant amount of time flying up and down the East Coast during her childhood.
In college she studied abroad in Australia, where she caught the travel bug for good.
Once I came back from there I saw there was so much more I could do. Every little thing was exciting, and when I came home everything was just the way it was when I left, Ms. Amo said. Once I came home from [Australia] I realized I just wanted to leave.
After spending roughly nine months saving money after college, Ms. Amo sold her car, gave everything she couldnt carry with her to her sister and has been on the move since with no plans of slowing down.
I promised my family I would come home after two years, she said, though when she does return in December, she said doesnt plan on staying put more than a month.
I want to travel in the States and end up in Alaska, Ms. Amo said. I dont see myself stopping anytime soon.
For her, traveling is about new experiences.
You meet so many new people and youre always doing new things, Ms. Amo said. Theres always a stranger waiting to help you out, to become your friend, to keep you company. Its always fun. You never get bored.
She hopes to spend time traveling in Southeast Asia and Europe at some point, too, she said, though because she funds her travels working minimum wage jobs, its important for her to be able to get work visas.
Ms. Amo said she does her best to stay in touch with friends and family in the United States. Skype, the online communication tool, has been especially helpful in keeping her connected with people back home, though time zones sometimes make communication difficult.
When she gets home from work its often too late to talk to anyone at home.
One of her hopes is that friends or family members will join her for short legs of her travels. So far only one of her friends has taken her up on the offer, but Im not giving up, she said.
And Ms. Amo wants other people to be inspired to travel as well.
Its really easily if youre focused and determined to do it, she said.

Jaime has the coolest Teles--and a lot of other great stuff too.
Amazing stuff! Really nice variety. Makes me wonder how many different amps you have to complement all those guitars.
That LP has an amazing top, how about a couple pics of that....

The original Prototype, set entirely on Manhattan, featured a Madison Square Garden-style building, even if because of licensing restrictions, the game couldn't really describe it as such (though it did offer a landmark collectible.) MSG reappears in Prototype 2, scene of a late-game boss battle inside the "Red Zone," which is a thoroughly overrun Manhattan.
But Prototype 2 begins in other boroughs, one of them recognizably the Bronx. Naturally that meant a cameo by Yankee Stadium, and it too is the venue for a super-powered badass throwdown.
This is "Rosman Stadium," at least I think that is the facility's name, judging by the ruined sign I inspected before jumping in. I asked Radical how "Rosman Stadium" got its name, and the answer was quite simple. It's named for Ken Rosman, the head of the studio that made the game.
In the game, it has been converted into a staging ground for the Blackwatch corporation's "Project Orion". Here's a video of how you'll throwdown in the mission set there. The alternate future outcome for this so-called hallowed ground isn't so unbelievable to my mind. I have every faith those fascist Yankees are would salute and do the bidding of those authoritarian Blackwatch bastards.

It does not happen very often. But occasionally, national newspapers will carry a front-page banner that rivals even the best tabloids. Such was the case with The Times—one of the leading newspapers from the Republic of Ireland—on July 10, 2004. The headline read: "Kill a Snail and Go to Jail?" The article featured a large picture of a snail, and shared the prominent page-one position with an article titled "Intelligence Services Get Blame for Iraq Failings." This must be a joke—right? Surely such goings-on must be tabloid journalism at its best? Ah, if only that were the case.
The article begins: "People who mistreat animals will face fines of up to £20,000 (roughly US$35,850) and year-long prison sentences under welfare laws to be announced next week…. The legislation will also offer protection to creatures such as insects, slugs, worms, caterpillars, and butterflies if scientific evidence proves they suffer pain" (Elliot, 2004, p. 1). Get the jails ready, because there's going to be a huge influx of four- and five-year-old boys! How many youngsters have graduated from first and second grade without crunching a few bugs underfoot? I know of boys who would be facing life in prison (and maybe the death sentence!) for their interest in terminating bugs. Speaking of annihilating bugs, are exterminating companies like Terminix® and Orkin® breeding "serial killers"?
As incredible as it may seem, this legislation only toughens laws that are already in place in that country. The new bill doubles the current maximum six-month sentence, and increases the fine up from £5000 (roughly US$9,000). The new bill is being sponsored by Ben Bradshaw, the minister in charge of animal welfare. Under the new law:
The insanity does not stop there. Two additional articles on page two elaborate further on the front-page article (see Coates, 2004, p. 2; Scruton, 2004, p. 2). The article by Sam Coates focuses primarily on the relationship between gardeners and slugs, and how it will be affected with this new legislation. Slugs are a serious problem for gardeners in that area. Many gardeners cut them in two, use chemicals to dehydrate them, or drown them in bowls of beer or coffee. But animal rights activists are determined to give the slugs the upper hand. As Coates noted:
A spokesman for PETA, the animal welfare group, said that this [killing slugs—BH] was unacceptable. "Compassion must be extended to all living beings. Stamping on a slug sets an example to children that harming animals is acceptable, or that "might makes right." People might view snails and slugs as insignificant. But there needs to be more widespread compassion (2004, p. 2).
A spokesman for PETA, the animal welfare group, said that this [killing slugs—BH] was unacceptable. "Compassion must be extended to all living beings. Stamping on a slug sets an example to children that harming animals is acceptable, or that "might makes right." People might view snails and slugs as insignificant. But there needs to be more widespread compassion (2004, p. 2).
My question is: Do these animal rights activists believe they know better than God? It was God Who created slugs and snails in the first place. And yet, He said that humans were to have dominion over the creatures that He had made (Genesis 1:26,28). The psalmist echoed these very directives when he praised God by saying, "You have made him [man—BH] to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet, all sheep and oxen—even the beasts of the field, the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea that pass through the paths of the seas" (Psalm 8:6-8, emp. added). God put these things here for us to use and enjoy—not to become a legal obstacle that prevents gardeners from being able to grow food. (see "Animal Right's,")
As ridiculous as it sounds, this new legislation seems to have been inevitable. Having been inundated with Darwinian theory for more than a century, it was only a matter of time before atheists and evolutionists began espousing that humans are on the same level with slugs and snails. After all, according to their theory we all have the same common ancestor. Evolutionary science does not view humans as unique in the animal kingdom, and thus we are only slightly separated from the insects and slugs we see crawling along the ground.
While evolutionists may continue to argue that we share a common ancestor with animals, the fact is, humans are distinctive. Humans possess a soul—a spirit—that lives on after the death of the body (Ecclesiastes 12:7; Zechariah 12:1; Luke 16:22-31; Hebrews 12:9; James 2:26). Animals do not share this spiritual dimension in common with humans. While animals possess an animating life force, when they die, they cease to exist. No part of their being continues to exist beyond physical death. (cf. "Do Animals Have a Soul?,"). We may love the family cat or dog, but on the Day of Judgment yet to come, that cat or dog is not going to have to account for all the things it has done during its life on Earth. Humans will. New legislation that punishes with fines or jail time will not change that fact.

Comments about North Face GTD Tight (Men's):
I bought these tights to use while doing some winter cycling in Tennessee. They are exactly what I was looking for in a pair of tights. I am 5' 10" - 198 lbs and the size large fit me great. They block enough wind that they have kept me warm and comfy in temps in the low 40's and i expect would do fin in the upper 30's as well. Got a great deal on them and am extremely happy with them!

Roadrunner & Artist News
Can Killswitch Cut It Live?
Posted on February 12, 2008Killswitch Engage has been confirmed for the upcoming Kittie US tour. The tour is to start around July 8th and will go through mid to late August. Our boys in Killswitch Engage will play 2nd on the bill, which is 5 acts in total. Hotwire open, Poison the Well is to play directly prior to Kittie, and Shadows Fall will play directly prior to Poison The Well. Confirmed dates + routing coming very soon. Yes, we wish we lived that side of the ocean too.
So, the album is awesome, but what about the live show? The following words come from the lovely Noemi Soto, and the equally rockin' Yelena Boroda, both part of the RR US Roadcrew, who recently checked out not 1 but 2 KsE shows in New York & New Jersey... in the same weekend. Hardcore. "Since Killswitch Engage have managed to put out one of the most amazing albums of the year (yes we realize the year is only half way through) we were really psyched about seeing them at the much anticipated New England Metal fest. Sadly to say, seeing them live was like listening to the cd really loud and staring at a picture of the band. Yes folks it was THAT energetic. Sound- thumbs up, visuals - boo. So as this weekend's two shows approached, we cannot say that we were happy little campers. What we actually got this weekend in NYC and NJ completely blew our minds. As they started their first song, what was once just a still picture has now come to life (where they got this burst of energy we don't know, perhaps giving our two cents to their A&R guy Gitter, AKA dinner for those at the Brooklyn show, helped). From the first song to the last there was nothing but pure energy being exchanged from crowd to band and vice versa. Looking at the endless pit, there was no denying that this was an amazing show. Being that we are both children of the eighties we definitely appreciated a guitar solo of the Super Mario Brothers theme thrown in, in between songs! Which served as the background music for a certain NYC Roadrunner Teamer AKA Julia Sutowski screaming out to Jesse to "take it all off", to which he replied "I don't think my wife would appreciate that!!" Though despite his previous statement at the NY show, he lost his shirt at the NJ show (sadly the NY teamer Julia Sutowski was not there to witness it). So if you are lucky enough to go see them please walk up to them and say hello, for they are amazing guys who appreciate their fans. Sorry if you thought this review was too honest, we can't help it, we're from Brooklyn." Yelena and Noemi Thanks for the time and the lines gals... glad you had a kickass time... twice. Expect to see the Killswitch Engage dudes in the UK before the year is out!

NEWPORT-The North Country Falcons finally put away visiting BFA St. Albans after halting several Bobwhite runs to take a 71-66 win at Falcon Gym. The last contest played during the 2011 calender year gave NCU their third triumph of the season, one more than they achieved all last winter.
BFA fought to the end, erasing a 16 point Falcon lead down to three with 8 seconds to go. Their attempted tying three pointer caromed off the back iron.
NEWPORT–Revenge is a dish best served cold. With temperatures hovering around the single digits on Thursday night, the Falcon basketball girls avenged their season opener loss to Lyndon Institute with a resounding 61-35 beat down of their neighbors from the south.
Signs pointed to a rough and tumble rematch for North Country. Emma Joslin was on the bench early with two fouls, but the team rallied around her by spreading out the offense to build a 13-7 first quarter lead.
JAY–After a magnificent game the last time these two teams met back in March (albeit the post game stuff was not so great), the anticipation level was high when the Essex Hornets came in to square off against the North Country boys hockey team Friday night at Jay Peak.
Instead, despite a revamping of the lines in hopes of generating more offense, the Falcons fell 5-2 to the boys in gold and blue.
However, in the loss, coach Andrew Roy was quick to talk about the positives from the game.
ORLEANS–Lake Region dropped its' 5th straight contest Friday night in a match-up against the Lyndon Institute Vikings by the score of 49-39.
The Rangers looked determined to end the losing streak and started off the contest better than their last matchup against the Vikes. In their previous meeting, the blue and white found themselves trailing 19-4 after the first 8 minutes of play.
This year's Newport Daily Express' Citizen of the Year Award goes to 84-year-old Bill Graham of Newport City.
Graham, who was born in Brooklyn, NY, moved with his family to Cambridge, MA, and then to Concord, N.H. While in high school, Graham joined the Sea Scouts. Graham briefly left high school to do a two-year stint in the Navy.
Back then, it was very common for young men to quit school to join the service during the World War II era, said Graham.
If there was ever a year for extremes, this was it: Record snowfall was followed by record rainfall, which lead to massive flooding and damage in April. Then May brought more rain, and more rain, and more rain, making it the wettest spring on record with 18.14 inches by May 28. The old record of 15.46 inches was set in 1983.
ORLEANS-The Lake Region Lady Rangers and Windsor Yellow Jackets have waged some epic battles in championship play since 2007. The pair of perennial championship contenders have made a habit out of playing big games against each other. Windsor has had the last word winning three of four title clashes. They have combined a strong skill set with a little good fortune, as they have played the LR girls with the Rangers down a key player in the last two title games.
Portsmouth, NH–– Joseph Norman Couture, 90, passed away at his home on Friday, December 23, 2011. A Mass of Christian burial was celebrated at Saint James Church in Portsmouth on Wednesday, December 28, at 11 a.m. Burial will take place in the spring in Saint James Cemetery in Island Pond, Vt. Farrell Funeral Home, 684 State Street, Portsmouth, NH is in charge of arrangements.
For the full obituary see Thursday's Express.
BRIGHTON, VT - The white vinyl siding that enveloped the Brighton Municipal Building in Island Pond for a couple of decades is currently being removed so architects and engineers can assess the historical features hidden beneath it.
The work is the very first phase of a weatherization and historical preservation project funded mostly by grants totalling just over a half million dollars.
DERBY - Developers who want to construct two industrial size wind turbines just east of Derby Line applied earlier this month for two Certificates of Public Good (CPG) with the Vermont Public Service Board (PSB).
Encore Redevelopment, with its partners, has filed for the CPGs for Grandview Farm, owned by the Davis family, and Smugglers Hill Farm, owned by Jayne and Jonathan Chase. The turbines would be more than 400 feet tall at the tip of the blade and are expected to generate 2.2 Mw of power.
The project is under the state's SPEED program.

Brett Riche, 2004 Carbon High School graduate and Southern Utah University (SUU) graduate, has been admitted to dental school. Brett, an SUU Biology major with a Chemistry minor, has begun attending Midwestern University's College of Dental Medicine in Glendale, Ariz., this fall. Brett is married to Janeal Needles Riche and his parents are Happy and Denna Riche of Price.
Gaining entry into a professional school is a big accomplishment, requiring a huge commitment from undergraduate students. In addition to obtaining an academic degree, students must also build an impressive resume including difficult classes and valuable experiences. Brett was an active participant in the Utah Rural Health Scholars Program at SUU, which helped him reach this goal.
Launched six years ago, the Utah Rural Health Scholars program is the first of its kind in the Western states designed to prepare rural students for dental and medical school and graduate healthcare professions. It has greatly contributed to SUU's record breaking acceptance rates.
The RHS program is part of the Utah Center for Rural Health (UCRH), based at Southern Utah University, and works with rural communities to increase access to healthcare through education. UCRH acts as a liaison between higher education, health profession programs and rural communities.

As you might be already aware, House Speaker Pelosi had to pull the DISCLOSE Act, H.R. 5175, from a scheduled vote last Friday, when widespread outrage erupted over a special exemption for the NRA in exchange for not opposing the bill. Well, the bill is still alive and well with a vote now scheduled in the House for tomorrow, June 24. The Senate leadership has already promised Pelosi that if the House passes the bill, then the Senate will vote on it in time for it to take effect for the elections this fall.

Fresh Figs and Stuffed Dates
Yields: 16 servings
- 16 fresh figs
- 16 Medjool dates, pitted
- 4 ounces Brie cheese, rind removed
- 16 dry-roasted pecans, walnut halves or almonds
For the figs:
1. Simply wash, slice in half, and serve.
Tip: For a more elegant spread, you can top each fig half with ½ teaspoon of honey flavored goat cheese and a single almond before broiling for 2-3 minutes. Once cooled, top each with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. Serve and enjoy!
For the dates:
1. Preheat the oven to 325° F.
2. Slit open the dates lengthwise and remove the pits and stems.
3. Stuff about 1/2 teaspoon of brie cheese inside each date and close the sides loosely, mounding the cheese on top of each date. Top each with your choice of nut. Place the dates on a non-stick baking tray.
4. Bake the dates for 6-8 minutes until the cheese is melted and the dates are hot. Arrange on a platter and serve one of each immediately.
Tip: For even more flavor, toast the nuts prior to baking.
Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Pomegranate and Hazelnuts
Yields: 6 servings
- 1 1/2 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved (up to 2 lbs)
- 2 TBSP olive or canola oil
- Fresh ground pepper, to taste
- 3 TBSP pomegranate molasses
- Seeds from 1 pomegranate or about 3/4 cup arils (seeds)
- 1/2 cup coarsely chopped toasted hazelnuts (or pecans, walnuts, or other nut)
- Finely grated zest of 1 lime
- 1 TBSP finely grated orange zest
1. Preheat the oven to 375 F.
2. Place Brussels sprouts in a medium roasting pan; toss with oil and season with pepper. Roast for about 35-45 minutes (depending on your oven and how closely the veggies are packed) or until light golden brown in color and a knife easily enters the veggie.
3. Transfer sprouts to a large serving bowl.
4. Add pomegranate molasses, pomegranate seeds, nuts, and lime and orange zests.

Pomegranate Molasses
Yields: 1/4 cup
- 1 cup pomegranate juice
- 2 TBSP sugar
- 1 TBSP freshly squeezed lemon juice
1. Place the pomegranate juice, sugar, and lemon juice into a small sauce pan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sugar has completely dissolved.

3. Remove from heat and allow liquid to cool in the saucepan for 30 minutes.
4. Transfer to a glass container and allow liquid to cool completely before covering and storing in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.

The Black Swan: Second Edition: The Impact of the Highly Improbable: With a New Section: "On Robustness and Fragility"
Condition Notes
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
A black swan is a highly improbable event with three principal characteristics: It is unpredictable; it carries a massive impact; and, after the fact, we concoct an explanation that makes it appear less random, and more predictable, than it was. The astonishing success of Google was a black swan; so was 9/11. For Nassim Nicholas Taleb, black swans underlie almost everything about our world, from the rise of religions to events in our own personal lives.
Why do we not acknowledge the phenomenon of black swans until after they occur? Part of the answer, according to Taleb, is that humans are hardwired to learn specifics when they should be focused on generalities. We concentrate on things we already know and time and time again fail to take into consideration what we dont know. We are, therefore, unable to truly estimate opportunities, too vulnerable to the impulse to simplify, narrate, and categorize, and not open enough to rewarding those who can imagine the "impossible."
For years, Taleb has studied how we fool ourselves into thinking we know more than we actually do. We restrict our thinking to the irrelevant and inconsequential, while large events continue to surprise us and shape our world. Now, in this revelatory book, Taleb explains everything we know about what we dont know. He offers surprisingly simple tricks for dealing with black swans and benefiting from them.
Elegant, startling, and universal in its applications The Black Swan will change the way you look at the world. Taleb is a vastly entertaining writer, with wit, irreverence, and unusual stories to tell. He has a polymathic command of subjects ranging from cognitive science to business to probability theory. The Black Swan is a landmark book–itself a black swan.
From the Hardcover edition.
A young scholar tells the story of the physicists and mathematicians who created the models that have become the basis of modern finance and argues that these models are the solution toand#8212;not the source ofand#8212;our current economic woes.
andldquo;Weatherall probes an epochal shift in financial strategizing with lucidity, explaining how it occurred and what it means for modern finance.andrdquo;andmdash;Peter Galison, author of Einsteinandrsquo;s Clocks, Poincareandrsquo;s Maps
After the economic meltdown of 2008, many pundits placed the blame on andldquo;complex financial instrumentsandrdquo; and the physicists and mathematicians who dreamed them up. But how is it that physicists came to drive Wall Street? And were their ideas really the cause of the collapse?
In The Physics of Wall Street, the physicist James Weatherall answers both of these questions. He tells the story of how physicists first moved to finance, bringing science to bear on some of the thorniest problems in economics, from bubbles to options pricing. The problem isnandrsquo;t simply that economic models have limitations and can break down under certain conditions, but that at the time of the meltdown those models were in the hands of people who either didnandrsquo;t understand their purpose or didnandrsquo;t care. It was a catastrophic misuse of science. However, Weatherall argues that the solution is not to give up on the models but to make them better. Both persuasive and accessible, The Physics of Wall Street is riveting history that will change how we think about our economic future.
About the Author
Nassim Nicholas Taleb has devoted his life to immersing himself in problems of luck, randomness, human error, probability, and the philosophy of knowledge. He managed to transform his interests into three successful careers, as a man of letters, businessman-trader-risk manager, and university professor. Although he spends most of his time as a flâneur, meditating in cafés across the planet, he is currently Distinguished Professor at New York University's Polytechnic Institute and Principal of Universa. His books Fooled by Randomness and The Black Swan have been published in 31 languages. He is widely recognized as the foremost thinker on probability and uncertainty. Taleb lives mostly in New York.

Desktop gadgets are mini programs that offer information at a glance and provide quick access to frequently used tools. But did you know that there are lots of ways to make your gadgets more efficient, useful, and fun? Here are a few tips and tricks you can try.
You've heard the expression "less is more," but that isn't always true—especially when it comes to information. You can resize some gadgets to get even more info, like news headlines and weather, on your desktop.
Right-click the gadget that you want to resize, point to Size, and then click the size that you want the gadget to be.
(Not all gadgets can be resized.)
Try this with: The Weather gadget and the Currency gadget
You can use the Show desktop button to take a quick look at your gadgets even when they're buried under a pile of open windows. No need to interrupt your train of thought (or even minimize any windows).
Point to the Show desktop button at the end of the taskbar. The open windows fade from view, revealing the desktop.
To make the windows reappear, move the mouse away from the Show desktop button.
Try this when: You want to peek at your gadgets then go back to what you were doing.
Don't like the look of some of your gadgets? Many of them can be customized. For starters, you can change the pictures in the Slide Show gadget and the Picture Puzzle gadget. Or you can change the appearance of the Clock gadget entirely.
Right-click the gadget that you want to change, and then click Options.
(Not all gadgets have options.)
Try this with: The Clock gadget and the Picture Puzzle gadget
Have you ever wished you could make all of the clutter on your desktop go away? In Windows 7, you can hide the gadgets on your desktop when you feel the need to tidy up your PC and then bring them back whenever you want. Your gadgets are restored the way you left them, with their options and locations on the desktop intact.
Right-click the desktop, point to View, and then click Show desktop gadgets to clear the check mark.
(Note that hiding your gadgets doesn't remove them from the desktop.)
Try this when: You want to cut back on some of the clutter on your desktop. (It works with icons, too. For more information, see Bureaubladpictogrammen weergeven, verbergen of groter of kleiner maken).

Those paying attention to recent events in the Texas Legislature know that a battle royal has been raging for weeks over the Travelers' Dignity Act, the anti-TSA groping bill sponsored by state Representative David Simpson. The bill would make Transportation Security Administration agents liable for sexual assault when groping passengers without probable cause in their invasive airport searches.
Last month the anti-groping bill was unanimously passed by the Texas House, and it appeared likely that the Senate would pass it as well. But then the feds intervened and threatened to shut down all Texas air traffic if the bill were passed. Ten state Senators withdrew their support, and the bill died in the regular legislative session.

is this really AVON pottery from 1886-1888
I've seen a couple of these online listed as AVON inkwells.
And I sent the images to someone and they confirmed this.
I'm just looking for a second confirmation on this.
4 inches across the bottom and 1 1/2 inches high
Is this the AVON Pottery from 1886 - 1888?

I've been researching this since I bought it. Haven't found a positive ID on this yet. However, with this being said I have come to some conclusions. First and foremost, I don't believe this to be Avon from Cincinatti for a handful of reasons.
As much as I would love to be believe this is AVON, I have to go with my gut feeling. And following your gut is always a good iea for any collector.
1. I don't believe this is an inkwell.
2. This isn't what I would believe to be a piece of pottery from this AVON of Cincinatti pottery.
3. Many, many potteries have used the name Avon throught the years. The name of the pottery or the design.
4. Researching through AVON collectibles online and in books they have used a backmark very similar to the item in question and similar to the AVON from Cincinatti. And others come close. The other avon I'm speaking of the everyday avon from your local representative. The perfume and cologne AVON.
5. Although the mark looks close to the AVON from Cincinatti and I've had people agree that it is, I have to go with my gut instinct. This has done well for me over the years. And my gut says it isn't.
If I come across who really made this I will post the info.
And I'm sure alot of pottery gets ID as the one from Cincinatti. Nature of the game. Hope can play alot when placing an ID on an item sometimes.
