Committee pulls petition supporting Coco Palms
Resort made famous by Elvis Presley movie "Blue Hawaii"
A committee supporting restoration of a Kauai resort made famous by Elvis Presley has pulled an online petition.
The Garden Island reports the Save Coco Palms Committee removed the petition a few hours after it went up Wednesday.
The shuttered resort was made famous by the 1961 Presley move "Blue Hawaii." It was damaged by a 1992 hurricane and has become an eyesore on Kauai's busiest corridor.
Ordinances approved by Kauai County retained a provision for Coco Palms restoration as a nonconforming structure but Mayor Bernard Carvalho Jr. wants the measure repealed.
The Kauai Planning Commission voted Tuesday to transmit the proposed repeal to the county council.
County spokeswoman Beth Tokioka says Carvalho wants to see movement on the property toward cleaning it and progressing toward meaningful re-use.

We are aware of a New York Times article published Monday, December 3, 2012 about school districts in five states that will be adding hours to their school calendars in an effort to help underperforming students. (Read the article here [1].)
While education reform is essential, should the focus be on extending the school year? According to Peg Smith, CEO of the American Camp Association®, "Teaching children to pass standardized tests doesn't necessarily teach them to think for themselves. Education is about more than teaching answers; it's about equipping our kids with the ability to develop the art of seeing the possibilities."
The organized camp experience is a vital component in the development and education of the whole child. Camp provides authentic learning environments and serves as the solution to many of the gaps in our current education system. Camp teaches values such as self-esteem, teamwork, and caring — areas where traditional schools sometimes cause more detriment than good. And camp allows everyone, not just the "A" student and the athlete, to thrive and enjoy the process of learning. Click here [2] to view research that supports out of school learning that takes place at camp.
Camp is one of the oldest and finest community-based experiential education and development models in America. The camp community has a long, well proven history of promoting healthy risk taking in a controlled environment. Quality camp/school partnerships that are fully supported and funded will achieve our goals of producing graduates who become productive, contributing citizens.

What a great evening for families at the "Rock the Park" last week on July 21. The "Ice Block Racing" was so fun to watch and the youth and adults had such a great time participating. There was pizza and drinks and cooking your own marshmallows for some-mores was so fun! There was also wonderful weather for the outdoor movie. Everyone should make this a must for next month.
Thank you to our local Boys and Girls club of Carbon County for giving us a free enjoyable family activity.

Pre-trip: Transylvania, Romania
Discover the Transylvania region of Romania—a castle-dotted landscape whose well-preserved, Old-World character transports you back to the era of bygone, macabre figures both mythical (Count Dracula) and actual (Vlad the Impaler). Your home base will be the historic resort town of Sinaia, known for centuries as the "Pearl of the Carpathians."
- It's Included:
- Accommodations: 3 nights in Sinaia at the Superior Tourist-Class New Montana Hotel or similar
- 4 meals: 3 breakfasts and 1 lunch
- Included tours: Peles Castle, Bucharest
- Exclusive services of a Grand Circle Program Director
- All transfers
- Now included for 2015
- Gratuities for local guides and motorcoach drivers on your extension and all optional tours
hiddenDay 1Depart U.S.
Depart the U.S. today on your flight to Bucharest. Please refer to your individual air itinerary for exact departure and arrival times.
hiddenDay 2Arrive Bucharest, Romania
Arriving in Bucharest on Day 2, you'll be met at the airport by a Grand Circle representative and transferred to your hotel. Depending on your arrival time and hotel check-in policy, you may not be able to check into your hotel room immediately upon arrival at your hotel. Your Program Director will advise you of our check-in status and activity schedule for the day when you arrive.
You have the remainder of the afternoon at leisure to relax after your overseas flight, or venture out on your own explorations. Get better acquainted with your Program Director and traveling companions over a Welcome Drink. Dinner this evening is at your hotel and is included as part of the main tour. Please note: If you have chosen this optional pre-trip extension, you'll begin with the one day in Bucharest that is part of your main program. Then you'll transfer to Transylvania for your optional extension. At the end of your extension, you'll return to Bucharest to join your fellow travelers for your main program, beginning on Day 3 as you all board the motorcoach for Ruse where your river ship awaits.
hiddenDay 3Bucharest • City tour • Sinaia
After breakfast (which is included as part of the main tour), you take a tour of Bucharest. This is an old city that has served as the capital of Wallachia and later Romania since 1659. Today, it is noted for its broad, tree-lined boulevards, well-kept parks, and mix of architectural styles that combine Neoclassical structures with monumental 20th-century
edifices (the latter built for the most part to satisfy the late dictator Nicolae Ceausescu). You'll view the Arc de Triomphe commemorating the achievements of World War I soldiers and drive along Victory Avenue to Revolution Square, where recent events in history are inscribed.
This afternoon, enjoy lunch and then transfer to Sinaia, one of the most popular resort destinations in Eastern Europe. With its sub-Alpine climate and its protection by the surrounding mountains, visitors to Sinaia have long been convinced of its ideal location for recreational mountain sports. The atmospheric pressure is low, the air is free of allergens and pollutants, and the water is rich in minerals. Some people even believe that the sunshine feels different here. This combination of natural curative factors and geographic beauty has helped make Sinaia the "Pearl of the Carpathians"—the historically favored destination of Romanian royalty and a region rich in palaces, luxury hotels, fine dining, and wonderful skiing.
Spend the rest of the afternoon exploring Sinaia as you wish.
hiddenDay 4Sinaia • Optional Bran Castle tour
Before its most famous landmark, Peles Castle, was constructed, Sinaia was a quiet monastery settlement in the Prahova Valley. Afterward, it quickly became a booming resort town—with help from the subsequent creation of a direct train line from Bucharest. With the king in Sinaia to avoid the heat of the nation's capital in summer, the nobility swarmed to this mountainside city.
The day is yours to relax and to explore this exquisite resort community on your own. Perhaps you'll visit Sinaia Monastery. Founded by Romania's Prince Mihai Cantacuzino after a pilgrimage to Mount Sinai, this 17th-century abbey in turn lent its name to the town. Admire the gold mosaic paintings and gold-plated thrones in the Great Church here, as well as its collections of religious icons, books, and porcelain. You might also pay a visit to the Sinaia Casino, built in 1912 and inspired by the glamorous casinos along the Cote d'Azur.
Or come with us on an optional tour to Bran Castle, often referred to as Dracula's Castle. Prince Vlad Tepes, the son of Vlad Dracul and the person who inspired Bram Stoker's 1897 novel Dracula, used this castle as headquarters for his incursions into Transylvania. This 15th-century ruler became known as "Vlad the Impaler" for his practice of impaling enemies of the kingdom, which was greatly threatened by the Ottoman Turks at the time. Stoker's work of fiction drew inspiration from this bloody practice, the family name, and the castle-dotted mountain landscape of Transylvania.
The castle was built in 1377 to protect nearby Brasov from invaders and also served as a customs station. In 1920, the people of Brasov, who owned the castle, offered it as a gift to Queen Maria of Romania, and the castle soon became her favorite residence. After an included lunch, you return to your hotel, arriving in the late afternoon.
hiddenDay 5Peles Castle tour • Brasov • City tour • Optional Azuga Wine Cellars tour
After breakfast, join your Program Director for a tour of Peles Castle.
Set dramatically in the hills above Sinaia, this 160-room palace, built in German Renaissance style, was completed in 1914 for the first Hohenzollern king of Romania, Carol I. The castle was the king's attempt to imitate the styles of his former homeland, creating a Bavarian setting in the mountains of Romania. The castle's sculpture terraces, art displays, and historic armories make it one of Romania's most important and beautiful museums. The palace is ornately decorated, inside and out, with intricate woodcarvings and paintings of scenes from Wagner's operas. Fortunately, as you'll see, it is one of the best-preserved royal palaces in Europe. Please note: If Peles Castle is closed, we will instead visit Pelisor Castle.
Then travel to Brasov, where a tour will introduce you to this fascinating city. Continuously settled since the Bronze Age, the region that is now Brasov has been enriched by people of many heritages—the Romans, the Saxons, and the Hungarians among them—as well as by the traders from all over Europe and beyond who arrived in this long-thriving economic center. You'll see some outstanding medieval architecture in Brasov, which is not far from the geographic center of Romania and is the largest city in the Transylvania region.
After lunch on your own, you have some time on your own to discover Brasov. Perhaps you'll visit the Black Church. Built between 1384 and 1477, it is the largest Gothic church in Romania and one of Eastern Europe's finest. Seeing this famed and ancient church, you might feel as if you've stepped back into the Middle Ages.
The evening is yours to spend as you wish.
Or join us for an optional evening excursion to the famed Azuga Wine Cellars. We'll begin with a walk through the wine cellars, where an excellent sparkling wine is produced and bottled, pause for a wine tasting, and then tour the small wine museum. We then sit down to dinner in a dining room across the courtyard from the wine cellars.
hiddenDay 6Sinaia • Bucharest • Embark ship
After breakfast, you transfer to Bucharest to join your fellow travelers on the Grand European Cruise River Cruise Tour, following the afternoon activities of Day 3 of the main itinerary.

Maine Republicans are quickly moving forward to reorganize the party after the resignations two weeks ago of the GOP state chair and vice-chair. Elections will be held Saturday in Augusta to select replacements for the two top posts. The winners will take charge of a State party that is still divided in the aftermath of last year's bruising state convention that saw supporters of former presidential candidate Ron Paul seize control.
It's been a rough 15 months for Maine Republicans. Last May, the party's establishment lost its key positions within the GOP inner circle when supporters of presidential candidate Ron Paul seized control of the convention. Then the GOP lost its majorities in the House and Senate during the November elections. Then Charlie Webster resigned as state chairman. Meanwhile, Republican legislative leaders have been at odds with each other over key votes on big bills such as the state budget. Two weeks ago Rich Cebra resigned as GOP state chair and this week, Republican Gov. Paul LePage has been dubbed one of the worst governors in the country by a group of beltway political ethics activists. Now a new election for the party's top two jobs has been set for Saturday.
"It's an opportunity to get a fresh start with the Maine GOP, we've got some really good candidates running," said Eric Brakey.
Eric Brakey heads up the Defense of Liberty PAC and was a former coordinator for the Ron Paul presidential campaign in Maine. He is among the GOP members who will vote on Saturday in a three-way battle that pits longtime Republican lawmaker and party activist Rick Bennett against former Ron Paul supporter Sam Canders and former state legislator Jonathan McKane. Candidates for Vice-Chair are Vic Bernadelli, a former press officer for House Republicans; former state Rep. Sue Morisette and former state Rep. Stavros Mendros. Brakey says that with an open state Senate seat coming up for a special election in Sagadahoc County, the party's next leadership team will have its work cut out for it.
"They're going to have to be able to hit the ground running," Brakey said. "We've got some great people in place already. We've got a really strong executive director of the party right now in Jason Savage who I think has been doing an excellent job and assuming that whoever is elected chooses to keep Jason on, we've got a lot of the infrastructure already in place that we can whoever is elected can kind of hop into it."
The biggest challenge facing the next Republican leadership team will be to unify the party which, despite efforts to reconcile after last year's bitter state convention, still remains factionalized. Paul Madore of Lewiston, who served as Ron Paul's state chairman, recalls the ill feelings when national party leaders decided not to seat Paul delegates from Maine, who he says had been fairly elected.
"It was quite a blow to the rank-and-file Republicans, you know taking over the chairmanship of the convention and moving ahead and literally taking all the delegates save those were for the governor, etc. etc.," Madore said.
Madore says he's supporting former Paul backer Sam Canders for state chair . Madore says Rick Bennett, while a quote "really nice guy", suffers from the image of being part of the old GOP moderate establishment that was dominated for years by such figures as Peter Cianchette, former Gov. John McKernan, and his wife, former Sen. Olympia Snowe. But House Republican Leader Ken Fredette says those who really know Bennett see that he is a conservative who is a political pragmatist at heart. Fredette says he's supporting Bennett, who he describes as uniquely qualified to unite the party.
"I think he is sort of a cross-section candidate for the chairman and I think that he'll have support in all of the various sectors that sort of make up the Republican party and I think that's exactly what we need right now," Fredette said.
Republican sources say Gov. Paul LePage is also backing Bennett while former GOP state chair Charlie Webster is supporting former state Rep. Jonathan McKane of Newcastle.

I used to enter the Challenge fairly regularly and moved up slowly from Beginners to Masters, but since I've not been writing much for a while, I think it might be good to have a Challenge Buddy at least for a bit until I "get the feel" of things again. I left just before the professional judges began rating the Challenge, and I know things are a bit different now. I'm sure some helpful encouragement, tips, and advice will be needed along the way!
Anyway, I write a mixture of non-fiction and fiction prose. I am a "middle life" married woman who has not been published before--although my first EC, from 2007 I believe, will be in the upcoming FW book!
If anyone is willing to be my buddy, I will greatly appreciate it!

Read: What Happens With The Draft
In the Edmonton Journal, Jim Matheson writes about what would happen with the NHL Draft if the season gets cancelled and there is no new CBA.
Matheson says that the draft is part of the CBA and if the NHL tried to implement one without a CBA the NHLPA would likely block it and try to declare all the players free agents.
He adds that if that were to happen then the league would likely see another situation like the one Justin Schultz put teams through this past summer before signing with Edmonton.
In 2005, the draft lottery was determined based on teams previous playoff experience and how many times over the past four years a team got the number one pick.
Teams started with 3 balls but lost 1 or 2 based on the criteria above. The Rangers, Blue Jackets, Sabres and Penguins all had the best chance to get the number one pick with 3 balls.
The Rangers ended up with the 16th pick but moved up to 12 to select Marc Staal.
The Rangers do not have a first round pick this year as it belongs to Columbus from the Rick Nash trade.
