'83,'95 Alumnus Morton Bahr's commitment to education, leadership, and the SUNY Empire State College community continues to motivate and inspire students to earn their bachelor's degrees while working completely online.
In 1983, Morton Bahr graduated from SUNY Empire State College's Harry Van Arsdale Jr. Center for Labor Studies. In 1985, he became President of Communications Workers of America, and led 700+ union members through 20 years' worth of technological, economic, and global changes in the telecommunications industry.
Determined to share all of his success with future leaders, Bahr implemented the Bahr Scholarship Foundation at SUNY Empire State College to assist Center for Distance Learning (CDL) students to earn their college degree. To honor his past, scholarship preference is given to union members and their families.
"We are grateful to the generosity of Morton Bahr for providing so many of our learners over the years with such an outstanding opportunity to achieve the dream of a college degree. Bahr Scholars enrich our academic community because, like many of our learners, they are pursuing online degrees while representing the workforce. It brings a vibrant mix of experience, application, and knowledge to our learning environment," said Dean of the Center for Distance Learning, Dr. Thomas Mackey.
Join the College community in offering congratulations to this year's recipients: Jennifer Jacobs, Mendy Thorsland, John Llewellyn, Jordan Marsh, and Kenya Coleman.
Jennifer Jacob
"Keep your head high and your goals in mind, don't ever give up."
Jennifer Jacob is a Library Clerk at Gates Public Library in Rochester, NY. She lives nearby in Hilton, NY with her husband, Dan. Jacobs is in pursuit of Bachelor of Science in Community and Service with a Concentration in Human Services.
What is your overall professional goal? How will your degree help you attain this?
My overall professional goal is to become a children's librarian within our local public library system. A degree in Human Services will assist me in making the most of the interactions that I have on a daily basis with the public in the library setting. So many individuals visit the library not only for books but for referrals to community services or for reliable information. Knowledge of psychology and human services will assist me in providing even more individualized services to patrons.
Why are you excited to be selected as a Bahr Scholar? What does this mean to you academically?
Being selected as a Bahr Scholar is a huge honor. Not only am I excited and grateful, but I am also aware that we are role models and representatives not only of Empire State College, but of our unions as well. Academically, this means a great deal to me. Without this scholarship, it would have been very difficult for me to complete my degree because although I maintain excellent grades, my college funding is due to run out, leaving me with some potentially difficult decisions.
How did you find out about SUNY Empire State College?
I attended the Center for Distance Learning upon graduating from high school, however as a 17 year old, I was not the most disciplined of learners. After maturing, entering the workforce for a number of years, getting married and purchasing a home, I decided that I was ready to re-enter college. Since I was now an adult learner with a family and full time job, attending Empire State College's Center for Distance Learning was the only method of obtaining my degree that would work with my busy schedule. Although challenging, I am now responsible enough to rise to the challenge and have become an excellent student, priding myself on earning excellent grades.
What advice do you give to other students just starting their college education?
Don't be afraid to ask for help and support. So many students think that they can do it alone, or are ashamed to ask for help but obtaining a college education is challenging, especially if you are an adult learner. There are resources and support for you.
Mendy Thorsland
"Take it step by step…You will get there!"
Mendy Thorsland, RN, is an elementary school nurse at Watkins Glen Central school. She is working on a Bachelor's Degree in Nursing through the Center for Distance Learning. A local to Seneca Lake, Thorsland enjoys hiking, biking, and outdoor activities with her husband and their three children.
How Will Your Degree Help You Professionally?
I feel that health care is a field that is always in transition and if a nurse (or any health care professional) does not learn continually, they will not be able to keep up as time goes on. While this can often be done through professional journals and membership to professional nursing organizations, when I made my transition into school nursing, I felt I needed a more thorough education. While getting my Bachelor's is not required for my current job, I feel that it will help to secure my position in an occupation that I love.
From an Academic Standpoint, What Does the "Bahr Scholar" Title Mean To You?
I am very excited and proud to have received the Morton Bahr Scholarship. It has given me the incentive to live up to the high standards Mr. Bahr demonstrated.
How did you find out about SUNY Empire State College?
I began Empire State College shortly after finishing nursing school in 1996 at the urging of my father-in-law, Martin Thorsland who was working for Empire State College. Unfortunately, they did not have the RN to BSN program at that time and that was where my heart was.
John Llewellyn
"When you can completely engross yourself in something you love, the college experience will never be burdensome. Stick with it. Your biggest regret in life may turn out to be giving up on your education."
John Llewellyn, President of Local F-7, is a Firefighter/Hazmat Technician and EMT with West Point Fire and Emergency Services. Llewellyn will earn his degree in Labor Studies with a concentration in Labor-Management Relations. He enjoys New York Yankees baseball, New York Giants football, and spending time with his wife Sabrina and two children.
What is your overall professional goal? How will you grow through your education?
My goal is to work in labor. At this point, I am looking into work at the district or national level within the IAFF or working as a mediator with the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service. A degree, specifically one in the labor studies area, will help me in these endeavors immensely. The new knowledge I am gaining in my studies here at ESC is giving me more of the background and information I will need to work in either of these fields.
Why are you excited to be selected as a Bahr Scholar?
I am excited to be a Bahr Scholar because it gives me another standard to strive for. Morton Bahr's ideas and writings on the lifelong nature of learning really struck a chord with me. I feel that the example Mr. Bahr has set will motivate me not only to get the most out of my educational experiences, but also to encourage others to do the same.
How did you find out about SUNY Empire State College?
I originally found out about ESC from a former union leader about 10 years ago. After completing my associates degree, I began researching online bachelor's degrees for labor studies, which led me here.
What advice do you give to other students just starting their college education?
Find something you're passionate about. This may take some time but it pays dividends over the course of your education.
Jordan Marsh
"Never be afraid to ask for help; especially within the Center for Distance Learning; they have so many available resources and are of tremendous suport."
Jordan Marsh will earn a Bachelor of Science in Labor Studies. He currently works for the IUE-CWA GE & Aerospace Conference Board. A former semi-pro hockey player, an aspiring Ironman competitor and an avid Adirondack hiker, Marsh also enjoys coaching his sons' hockey team.
What is your overall professional goal?
How will your degree help you attain this? My overall goal is to obtain the tools to successfully advance my career and do so in a manner that will benefit myself and my employer. My degree will give me a solid foundation in reaching this goal and the knowledge to ease the process.
Why are you excited to be selected as a Bahr Scholar?
I am very excited to be selected as one of the Bahr Scholarship award recipients, as it validates the hard work that I have put in. Academically speaking, it gives me an added boost of confidence that I can continue my education and solidified my decision to continue on by enrolling into a Master's Degree program once my Bachelors is complete
How did you find out about SUNY Empire State College?
I was a graduate of the SUNY system and grew up in Saratoga Springs, so I had always known of SUNY Empire State. After researching all of my options, SUNY Empire State College was hands down the best option for me in regards to my major.
What advice do you give to other students just starting their college education?
Stick with it! I received a Bachelor's degree from SUNY Brockport in 1998 and decided to change professions later down the road. I went back to college 14 years later and my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner. If you work hard and truly put in the effort, you will reap the rewards of your hard work.
Kenya Coleman
"Empire State College is a place that gives you easy, friendly access to everything you need to know to make things better for your academic study from beginning to end."
Kenya Coleman works for the United University Professions (UUP) as Meeting and Travel Assistant/Assistant to the Vice President for Academics. She will pursue her degree in the Business, Management, and Economics area of study, and in her free time enjoys scrapbooking and spending time with her family.
Why are you excited to be selected as a Bahr Scholar? What is your goal?
I am very excited to have been selected as a recipient for the Morton Bahr Scholarship. It made me feel like I am starting off on the right path to something great. My overall goal is to gain the necessary skills knowledge to earn my bachelor's degree.
Best of luck to this year's scholars as they connect with their mentors, prepare for fall classes, and continue on their educational journey at the Center for Distance Learning!

Lloyd Mats are all made in a large plant in Los Angeles, California. Mat patterns are digitized and the mats are cut to perfect custom fit using AutoCAD controlled, ultrasonic cutting equipment. Lloyd has a pattern for virtually every make and model of car, truck or van sold in the United States from 1960 to the present. Development of mat and embroidery computer programs and the actual manufacture of the mats and the mat embroidery are all performed in Lloyd's plant, to ensure that all patterns and mats meet the high and strict quality standards that have made Lloyd Mats the undisputed leader in the custom car mat industry.Product Reviews (29)

The Council of Europe
Council of Europe building
© picture alliance / Frank Rumpenhorst
Council of Europe turns 65
The Council of Europe founded on 5 May 1949 was the first of Europe's major new post-war organisations. In 2014 it celebrates its 65th anniversary. It is based in Strasbourg, France.
The Federal Republic of Germany joined the Council of Europe initially as an associate member on 13 July 1950 and became a full member on 2 May 1951.
Its currently 47 members include every country in Europe except Belarus and Kosovo. Six other countries – Canada, the Holy See, Israel, Japan, Mexico and the United States – have observer status.
Promoting shared values
The aim of the Council of Europe is to achieve a greater unity between its members for the purpose of safeguarding and realising the ideals and principles which are their common heritage and facilitating their economic and social progress (Article 1 of the Statute of the Council of Europe). From the start the Council of Europe has worked steadily to promote human rights, the rule of law and democracy throughout Europe.
An important part of this work is monitoring member countries' compliance with the obligations of membership. Serious violations of these obligations may incur sanctions, including even termination of membership.
The institutions of the Council of Europe are
- the Committee of Ministers
- the Parliamentary Assembly
- the Congress of Local and Regional Authorities
- the European Court of Human Rights.
The Committee of Ministers is the Council of Europe's decision-making body and comprises the foreign ministers of all member countries, or their permanent diplomatic representatives in Strasbourg.
The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) is a forum for parliamentary debate. It is entitled to make recommendations and has a number of important decision-making powers. The PACE also elects e.g. the Secretary General from a list of nominees drawn up by the Committee of Ministers. Its 318 seats are distributed among the national delegations of the Council of Europe's member countries. Germany's delegation is made up of 18 national parliamentarians and 18 substitutes.
The Congress of Local and Regional Authorities (CLRA), which also has 318 seats, serves as the voice of the member countries' regional and local politicians. Its mission is to promote local and regional democracy and strengthen local self-government and transfrontier cooperation. It also provides observers to monitor regional and local elections in member countries.
The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) is considered the Council of Europe's flagship with direct relevance to Europe's citizens. Individuals in Council of Europe member countries can appeal directly to the ECHR if they believe their country has violated their rights under the European Convention on Human Rights.
The institutions of the Council of Europe are assisted by the Secretariat. Since 1 October 2009 it has been headed by Secretary General Thorbjørn Jagland, a Norwegian national, who was elected for another five-year term by the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe on 24 June 2014. On assuming office, Secretary General Jagland introduced extensive reforms that are now bearing fruit. These include refocusing the Council of Europe on its core competences, i.e. protecting and promoting human rights, the rule of law and democracy throughout Europe.
Conventions of the Council of Europe
The Council of Europe has played a trailblazing role in creating a binding pan-European legal framework for the protection of human rights, the rule of lawand democracy. The more than 200 Council of Europe conventions and protocols now in effect include such groundbreaking instruments as the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), the European Convention for the Prevention of Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (Anti-Torture Convention), the European Social Charter, the European Charter of Local Self-Government, the European Cultural Conventionas well as the Conventions on Action against Trafficking in Human Beings, on the Protection of Children and on Preventing and Combating Violence Against Women. The Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities and the European Charter for Minority or Regional Languages are milestones in improving protection for minorities.
Overview of all Council of Europe conventions
Partial agreements of the Council of Europe
Partial agreements are a special form of close thematic cooperation by some or all member countries.Usually also third countries may accede to them.
The Council of Europe and the EU
The EU and the Council of Europe work closely together and continue to expand their cooperation. The EU provides the Council of Europe with considerable funds to implement joint projects aimed at protecting and promoting human rights, the rule of law and democracy in Council of Europe member countries as well as in Europe's southern and eastern neighbourhood.
The Treaty of Lisbon, which envisages the EU's accession to the European Convention on Human Rights, offers new opportunities for even closer cooperation between the Council of Europe and the EU. The accession process made important headway in 2013 and further headway is expected this year.

Although the kind of technology that can be seen with their smart phones might suggest otherwise, a data analytics company has recently reported that for the first time in the history of the nation smart phones are outselling feature phones. This is a global trend, but Japan is the first country to officially have more cell phones in circulation than feature phones. The numbers were collected between March 28th and April 3.
This is the first time that this has ever been recorded. The analytics company has said that Android such as unlocked Samsung Captivate i897, Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, etc.. was the main reasoning behind the recent shift, because the operating system has become insanely popular in recent months in Japan and continues to grow quickly in popularity.
The report wasn't really a surprise to most. Japan is known for their smart phone crazes, and has been at the forefront of developing and creating mobile technology for quite some time. It will certainly be interesting to see if the numbers continue to surpass one another. They typically shift from one week to the next, but this is the first time that there has ever been a lead on the side of smart devices. Both types of phones share about 50% of the total phone market at this moment.
Watch as smart phones continually become much more common in the coming months in Japan and in other countries. Although Japan may be at the forefront - other countries are not that far behind themselves. Look for perhaps the United States or other countries to see similar numbers at some point in the future. In many American homes, cell phones have virtually replaced the use of landline phones, although this is not as common in Canada and other surrounding countries. Japan might be the first, but rest assured they will not be the last.
PureMobile carries wide range of cell phone and cell phone accessories such as Earpieces & Headsets, cases and skins, etc..

|Chase Suspect Arrested in Buncombe
|Written by Steve Frank
|Sunday, 10 November 2013 06:12
Thursday evening, Lenoir Police reported that the suspect in a drug deal gone bad was apprehended in Buncombe County—a man suspected of slamming into the main Lenoir Fire Station last month. Chief Scott Brown reports that at approximately 5:59 pm, members of the Lenoir Police
Department Narcotics Unit along with officers from McDowell County Sheriff's Office, Black Mountain PD, Buncombe County Sheriff's Office, Marion PD, and the DEA arrested Ryan Oneal Jeffries after locating Jeffries at a gas station in Black Mountain. In spite of the wild chase that was involved in the first encounter, he was taken into custody without incident. Jeffries was brought back to Lenoir and served outstanding warrants for 9 counts of (F) Trafficking Opiates by Possession, Sales, or Transportation, 1 count of (F) Possession with Intent to Manufacture, Sell, and Deliver Cocaine, 1 count of (F) Speeding to Elude Arrest,1 count of (M) Failure to Heed Lights and Sirens, 1count of (M) Reckless Driving to Endanger, and 1 count of (M) Driving while License Revoked. He was set a $250,000.00 secured bond and was placed in the Caldwell County Jail. It was October 8th that Jeffries and Vanessa Mae Snyder were chased down US 321 after an undercover drug sting, the chase ending when their convertible slammed into the Lenoir Fire station causing over $100,000 damage.

Protesters descend on Home Depot in Roseburg
ROSEBURG, Ore. -- In a protest believed to be connected to the logging protest near Reedsport, patrol officers and detectives responded to the Home Depot in Roseburg after 40-50 protesters entered the business.
According to police, the group used the store's public address system, moved displays around and put up a banner that said "Dam the Home Depot, Save Chile's Rivers."
Several subjects were taken away from the property but no arrests were made.
Police believe this protest is connected with the logging protest near Reedsport.
Members of the groups Earth First! and Cascadia Rising Tide say they want to protect fish and wildlife habitat in native forests.
The timber industry is a major workforce and revenue resource for Douglas County.
Residents KPIC talked with said they can understand both sides of the situation but don't agree with how the protest was executed.
"Any time you have a radical protest that completely stops something, I don't think that's right," said Doug Pieschel, a Douglas County resident. "I think you need some kind of sharing, some kind of compromise."
"There are many ways to go about that besides walking in and stopping someone's job and way of making a living," said Bill Calvert, also of Douglas County. "Certainly it hurts us, every penny lost in wages is a penny you never make up."
This protest is part of a national campaign, including protests in Colorado, Kansas, California and Florida.
Earth First! activist Kim Marks said the Home Depot is trying to promote a "green" image while buying timber from companies that would destroy Chile's rivers and forests..
KPIC spoke with a Home Depot spokesperson, Kathryn Gallagher, who said Home Depot is not a party in this issue.
"The organizations involved in this situation are not directly involved in harvesting any of the wood we purchase," Gallagher said, "and the companies that we do purchase from are in full compliance with our strict wood purchasing policy."
Gallagher said Home Depot does not buy wood within 1,000 miles in the region.

Detailed Description:
HIV patients on antiretroviral medications, who are suffering from pain, nausea, anxiety, or fatigue will be randomly assigned to either the usual care for an HIV patient, which is an educational program about the medications, or an intervention program, which includes both the educational program and three sessions with a psychologist. The sessions will help participants understand their concerns about the medications and will teach relaxation techniques and guided imagery to help participants reduce discomforts associated with the medications. All patients will continue to receive the usual care from their medical providers. The main measures are the measured frequency and intensity of the symptoms under study; secondary measures examine medication adherence, CD4 counts, and virus levels. Control measures include the number of doses of side effect medications taken in each group, and the number of relaxation/imagery sessions practiced privately by participants in the intervention group.

There's a certain unmistakeable quality about the classic rich tone of vintage amps that makes them sought-after by countless guitarists. However, there are only so many of them to go around and they're disappearing fast, which means that more and more of us are searching for a modern amp that can evoke the same vintage character. That's exactly why 65amps guitar amplifiers were created. One of the masterminds behind 65amps is Peter Stroud, a professional guitarist who's toured with the likes of Don Henley, Sheryl Crow and Stevie Nicks. After Stroud teamed up with his colleague Dan Boul, the two set out to build heads, cabinets and combos that would take the tone of a big vintage tube amp and repackage it into a smaller guitar amplifier with a sound just as warm and fuzzy, even at lower volumes better-suited to small venues.
Devoted to the spirit of classic rock, 65amps guitar amplifiers are set apart by their high-end components and hand-made construction, essential elements in creating a vintage-authentic amp. Also essential is second-to-none sound quality. In the Stone Pony 25W Combo Amp, that means 12" Celestion drivers for wide-ranging frequency response backed up by a 7591 power tube delivering '60s-era fuzz distortion. Another fantastic combo amp choice is the Ventura 112, a versatile performer that can go from American to British tone with just a few adjustments.
Combos are just the beginning of what 65amps has to offer. If you want to build a compact stack, you have tons of options, one suggestion would be to match the Lil' Elvis head to a Lil' Elvis cabinet. Although it's a 1x12 cab, you'll be pleasantly surprised to hear how the Lil' Elvis guitar amp head can make it sound more like a 4x12 setup. Based on unearthed 1960s designs, this head is packed with two EL84 power tubes and a 12AX7 in front. For genres running the gamut from hard rock to country to R&B to smooth jazz, there's little that Lil' Elvis can't do - and that's just one of several heads from 65amps, each with its own distinct personality.
Thanks to 65amps, there's no need to hunt for a hand-me-down vintage '60s amplifier. These amazing guitar amps will give you all the tone you could ask for with reliability that an old amp just can't offer. That's why artists like Dan Auerbach, Vince Gill and Bruce Springsteen (whose "Magic" album was mostly recorded on a London Pro head) trust 65amps to deliver on their promise of outstanding performance.

A Study Looking at Women's Experiences After a Miscarriage
Recruitment status was Recruiting

- How to Read a Study Record
Studies have shown that a majority of pregnancies that end in miscarriage are due to a chromosome abnormality usually involving a duplicated or missing chromosome. Often this happens by chance and is not likely to occur in future pregnancies. For many women, a miscarriage can be a traumatic experience and can cause feelings of loss and grief. The option of genetic testing, such as karyotyping, may offer an explanation for the miscarriage and may help some women find closure in their loss. However, no literature exists on a women's experience with genetic testing following a miscarriage. This assumption that the knowledge that can be gained from karyotyping may be a positive experience for a woman following a miscarriage should be studied and the results published. This study will address whether routine karyotyping should be offered following a miscarriage for the purpose of benefiting the patient's experience.

There is little love lost between this writer and the western greylag goose (scientific name Anser anser anser, and I'm not even kidding about that): when I was about eleven my family visited a woman with a pet goose she had trained to guard the house, and the beast interpreted my appearance as somehow threatening. I'm the only person I know who's been bitten by a goose. Nevertheless (or perhaps in a spirit of revenge), we here at Design Public love a good down comforter, so we've introduced a line of our own. Down--the tiny soft clusters under the bird's outer feathers--has two remarkable and related characteristics: fluffiness and warmth. The fibers interlock and trap air, so that each cluster becomes a sort of small balloon. The trapped air means the clusters have a greater volume, which makes them fluffy (and very light). It also absorbs and reflects your body heat, which is why down makes such wonderfully warm comforters. Ours are high-quality, hypoallergenic, well-constructed comforters--expect yours to last at least a decade.

A Reliable Wifeby Robert Goolrick
Staff Pick
Come a day, you might get sick of hearing about A Reliable Wife — so many people will have read it and raved to you about it. Here's some preventative medicine: read it first. Seduction, marriage, money, sex, drugs, murder... when Catherine Land arrives in Wisconsin on a snowy day in 1907, we know she's an imposter — but does her husband-to-be? Robert Goolrick has written a novel that you'll want to devour in a single sitting. Simultaneously, you'll want to luxuriate in its drama as long as possible. Whatever you decide, there's too much pleasure in these pages to leave to your friends.
Frank advertises for a "mail-order bride," and Catherine accepts. She arrives in Wisconsin during a blizzard, which sets the initial tone for the chilly interaction between them. They both have sinister, unexpressed plans for each other. Heavy on themes of sex, greed, and self-interest, The Reliable Wife morphs into a pseudo love story. Ralph suffers at Catherine's hand, and she seems untouchable but is she? Catherine undergoes a character change that is slow, believable, and satisfying. I loved it!
Synopses & Reviews
From Powells.com:
Publisher Comments:
Rural Wisconsin, 1907. In the bitter cold, Ralph Truitt, a successful businessman, stands alone on a train platform waiting for the woman who answered his newspaper advertisement for a reliable wife. But when Catherine Land steps off the train from Chicago, she's not the simple, honest woman that Ralph is expecting. She is both complex and devious, haunted by a terrible past and motivated by greed. Her plan is simple: she will win this man's devotion, and then, ever so slowly, she will poison him and leave Wisconsin a wealthy widow. What she has not counted on, though, is that Truitt — a passionate man with his own dark secrets — has plans of his own for his new wife. Isolated on a remote estate and imprisoned by relentless snow, the story of Ralph and Catherine unfolds in unimaginable ways.
With echoes of Wuthering Heights and Rebecca, Robert Goolrick's intoxicating debut novel delivers a classic tale of suspenseful seduction, set in a world that seems to have gone temporarily off its axis.
"Set in 1907 Wisconsin, Goolrick's fiction debut (after a memoir, The End of the World as We Know It) gets off to a slow, stylized start, but eventually generates some real suspense. When Catherine Land, who's survived a traumatic early life by using her wits and sexuality as weapons, happens on a newspaper ad from a well-to-do businessman in need of a 'reliable wife,' she invents a plan to benefit from his riches and his need. Her new husband, Ralph Truitt, discovers she's deceived him the moment she arrives in his remote hometown. Driven by a complex mix of emotions and simple animal attraction, he marries her anyway. After the wedding, Catherine helps Ralph search for his estranged son and, despite growing misgivings, begins to poison him with small doses of arsenic. Ralph sickens but doesn't die, and their story unfolds in ways neither they nor the reader expect. This darkly nuanced psychological tale builds to a strong and satisfying close." Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
Don't be fooled by the prissy cover or that ironic title. Robert Goolrick's first novel, "A Reliable Wife," isn't just hot, it's in heat: a gothic tale of such smoldering desire it should be read in a cold shower. This is a bodice ripper of a hundred thousand pearly buttons, ripped off one at a time with agonizing restraint. It works only because Goolrick never cracks a smile, never lets on that he... Washington Post Book Review (read the entire Washington Post review) thinks all this overwrought sexual frustration is anything but the most serious incantation of longing and despair ever uttered in the dead of night. The curtain rises in 1907 during a Wisconsin winter "cold enough to sear the skin from your bones." Ralph Truitt, the wealthiest man in town, stands frozen in place on a train platform, but inside he's burning with the unsated desire of 20 solitary years. Ralph is waiting for his mail-order bride, a woman he requisitioned through a classified ad: "Country businessman seeks reliable wife. Compelled by practical not romantic reasons. ... Discreet." That may sound as horny as Sunday school, but Ralph isn't entirely what he seems, standing there on the platform with "his eyes turned downward, engraved with a permanent air of condescension and grief." Inside, the 58-year-old widower is startled by the intensity of his desires, consumed with thoughts of sex and murder and madness in homes all around town. "Sometimes his loneliness was like a fire beneath his skin," Goolrick writes. "He had thought of taking his razor and slicing his own flesh, peeling back the skin that would not stop burning." This first chapter, in which everything appears stock still, is told in a husky whisper of something lurid and painful, "the terrible whip of tragedy." Again and again, we hear this refrain, like a judgment and a curse: "These things happened." Keep this in mind as you're scanning the personal ads in the paper. When Catherine Land finally arrives, looking prim and dour, she isn't what she appears to be, either. She threw her extravagant party dresses out the train window a few miles from town, and she has hidden jewels in the hem of her black wool dress. She's not even the woman in the photo she sent Ralph during their summer of tentative correspondence. And she's carrying a bottle of arsenic and "a long and complicated scheme." Poor Ralph has some awfully bad luck with women: the matrimonial equivalent of sailing to Europe on the Titanic and flying home on the Hindenburg. "This begins in a lie," he tells Catherine sternly as he picks up her bags. "I want you to know that I know that. ... Whatever else, you're a liar." All Ralph wants — or pretends he wants — is "a simple, honest woman. A quiet life. A life in which everything could be saved and nobody went insane." That's so hard to attain when your new bride hopes to poison you straightaway. But damned if he doesn't almost die in a spectacular riding accident while bringing her home from the station. Poor Catherine finds she's got to nurse Ralph back to health before she can start killing him. Don't worry: I'm not giving anything away. Neither of these two steely people is playing straight with the other, and Goolrick isn't playing straight with us, either. The floor collapses in almost every chapter, and we suddenly crash through assumptions we'd thought were solid. Goolrick keeps probing at the way people force themselves not to know something — not to believe the truth — in order to fulfill their deepest longings. The novel is deliciously wicked and tense, presented as a series of sepia tableaux, interrupted by flashes of bright red violence. The whole thing takes place in a fever pitch of exquisite sensations and boundless grief in a place where "the winters were long, and tragedy and madness rose in the pristine air." The word "alone" spreads through these pages like mold in the cellar, until it's everywhere. The stillness and whiteness of the Wisconsin setting eventually give way to the lush depravity of St. Louis, lined with music halls and opium dens. Much of this section takes place in "a tented, brocaded bedroom, like a palace abandoned before a revolution." I'm reluctant to quote much more for fear of making the book sound silly — "Love that lived beyond passion was ephemeral. It was the gauze bandage that wrapped the wounds of your heart" — but once you've fallen into the miasma of "A Reliable Wife," it's intoxicating. (Columbia Pictures has already grabbed the rights for what could be an inflammable movie.) I'm reminded of Edgar Allan Poe's stories with their claustrophobic atmosphere, hyper-maudlin tone and the extravagant suffering that borders on garishness. (Yes, Goolrick includes a forlorn castle, too.) These are all qualities the author displayed in his equally gothic memoir, "The End of the World as We Know It" (2007). But his inspiration for "A Reliable Wife" reportedly came from "Wisconsin Death Trip," a grim collection of antique photographs published in 1973. The editor of that book, Michael Lesy, reproduced pictures of children laid to rest and parents in shock, along with newspaper anecdotes about murder, illness, assault and insanity — the same kinds of ghastly tales that obsess Goolrick's overheating characters. Ultimately, this bizarre story is one of forgiveness. But the path to that salutary conclusion lies through a spectacularly orchestrated crescendo of violation and violence, a chapter you finish feeling surprised that everyone around you hasn't heard the screams, too.

"I was totally captivated by A Reliable Wife. Raw and lyrical at the same time, Robert Goolrick's wonderful novel grips the reader with its complex and beautiful story." Sandra Brown
"A Reliable Wife is a nearly forensic look at love in all its incarnations, with all its damages, deceptions, and obsessions, run through with points of light and pinned with ruinous truths....Astonishing, complex, beautifully written, and brilliant." Sara Gruen
"A Reliable Wife is eminently readable and should delight fans of old-fashioned Gothic romances....Goolrick is a solid wordsmith, and he handily manages the impressive task of making readers care about a woman bent on cold-blooded murder. And generating the proper Gothic ambience in Wisconsin is no mean feat." Christian Science Monitor
"A killer debut novel....Suspenseful and erotic....[A] chillingly engrossing plot...Good to the riveting end." USA Today
"A gothic tale of...smoldering desire....The novel is deliciously wicked and tense, presented as a series of sepia tableaux, interrupted by flashes of bright red violence....Once you've fallen into the miasma of A Reliable Wife, it's intoxicating." The Washington Post
"Robert Goolrick's A Reliable Wife is my must-read recommendation....This engrossing and addictive novel will leave you both chilled and satisfied." NPR's Morning Edition
"A thrilling, juicy read....The writing is beautiful and the story is captivating. It's a real page-turner." Today Show

He placed a notice in a Chicago paper, an advertisement for "a reliable wife." She responded, saying that she was "a simple, honest woman." She was, of course, anything but honest, and the only simple thing about her was her single-minded determination to marry this man and then kill him, slowly and carefully, leaving her a wealthy widow, able to take care of the one she truly loved.
What Catherine Land did not realize was that the enigmatic and lonely Ralph Truitt had a plan of his own. And what neither anticipated was that they would fall so completely in love.
Filled with unforgettable characters, and shimmering with color and atmosphere, A Reliable Wife is an enthralling tale of love and madness, of longing and murder.

Despite a small crowd, the Carbon Dino boys basketball team played their hearts out to win their season opener against tough non region rival Uintah.
Both teams had several turnovers before Uintah got on the board with four points. Carbon quickly tied it up and never looked back.
By the end of the first quarter Carbon led by four. Uintah came back and trailed by one point at the half, but Carbon came out of the locker room on fire and got its post game going in the third quarter to pull away for good. Even though Uintah outscored Carbon by three points in the fourth quarter, the damage was done and Carbon held on to a convincing win.
This is the first time Carbon has won their season opener in 5 years.
Four Carbon players scored in double figures. Bryan Gazell, Chase Julian and Parker Parsons each had 12 points and Schyler Namanny added 10. Other scorers include Keith Parker 3, Kyle Assay 2 and Levi Branch with 6. Namanny hit two threes and Gazell hit one from past the three point line.
Rebounding, hustle and good post play proved to be the winning element in this game. Coach Ted Bianco felt like this was one of the best team efforts he has seen from his squad. Leadership from his seniors guided the team. Assay, Parsons, Branch and Stetson Kunz, along with junior Jordan Moynier stepped up at the post and that allowed the guards to score.
When asked who he felt was the outstanding player for this game, Coach Bianco quickly replied that the entire team was the most valuable player. Coach Bianco was very clear about what he thought.
"This was truly a team effort," he said.

I am a CW2 120A and am considering a transfer to a 91 series, probably 915 or such. I am thinking about it since in the civilian world I am an automobile mechanic with over 20 years experience. I probably won't take action on it until sometime in 2015 since I am due to deploy in 2014. Thanks for the input.

MASSENA - Rep. William L. Owens, D-Plattsburgh, vowed Monday to prevent the U.S. government from charging travelers to cross borders after the Department of Homeland Security floated the idea in its 2014 fiscal year budget proposal.
Imposing a fee to cross the border is a bad idea, plain and simple, Mr. Owens said in a news release. I represent a number of communities that depend on Canadian travelers and investment to support local businesses and job growth. Instead of adding an additional barrier for commerce, we should be taking more steps to ease the legitimate flow of people and goods between our two countries.
In its budget submission, DHS proposed to complete a study within nine months of enactment assessing the feasibility and cost relating to establishing and collecting a land border crossing fee for both land border pedestrians and passenger vehicles along the northern and southwest borders of the United States.
Thousand Islands Bridge operators said they were glad that the congressman was responding quickly to what could possibly be a detriment to the regions economy if it were to be implemented.
It flies right in the face of the Beyond the Border initiative, which aims to streamline what happens at the border, said Robert G. Horr III, executive director of the Thousand Islands Bridge Authority.
The Beyond the Border Action Plan is a joint agreement between U.S. and Canada to work together to secure the northern border while expediting lawful trade and travel.
Charging travelers a fee to offset expenses of introducing new federal regulations is not a new concept, Mr. Horr said, but its something that has been shot down several times in the past and must be prevented again to stop the further thickening of the northern border.
Mr. Horr said he also viewed the feasibility study itself as a waste of money.
Is this taxpayer money well spent? In my opinion, its not, he said.
Rep. Owens vowed to explore all legislative options available to me to prevent this move in the months ahead.
Earlier this month, Mr. Owens hosted a forum at Clarkson University that focused on initiatives such as the Beyond the Border Action Plan and the Regulatory Cooperation Council that aim to improve the flow of trade and tourism along the northern border.
Good work is being done across the district to reduce wait times and promote increased trade with Americas neighbor to the north, Mr. Owens said. We should keep focus on these positive developments and set aside any initiatives that would diminish the progress already taking hold.
