If we are awarding contracts or agreements for a project that includes Federal funding (or Federal reimbursement) what should we be aware of?
Are Title VI and its requirements for local programs new?
No. Title VI, and other Federal non-discrimination statutes have been around for decades. Through a recent clarification from Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), it is Idaho Transportation Department's (ITD) responsibility to ensure that all local agencies receiving US DOT funds administered by ITD are in compliance with these regulations (23 CFR 200.9(b)(7), 49 CFR 21.7).
Who is considered to be a 'sub-recipient' triggering Title VI compliance?
Financial or other types of assistance provided by the FHWA through the Idaho ITD to local public agencies or local highway jurisdictions for transportation related projects makes the local entity a 'sub-recipient'. Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and other Federal Non-discrimination statutes prohibit discrimination based on race, color, national origin and sex (gender) in the provision of benefits and services in programs and activities that receive Federal funds. The U.S. Department of Transportation's (US DOT) implementing regulations are contained in 49 CFR Part 21 and 23 CFR 200. These regulations require:
What about a local program that is funded with other funding, local or city taxes, for instance?
The Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987 broadened the scope of Title VI coverage by expanding the definition of the terms "programs and activities" to include all programs and activities of Federal aid recipients, sub-recipients, and contractors, whether those programs and activities are federally funded or not. In short, if a local entity receives any Federal funding at all, every program and service offered by that local entity is covered by Title VI and other Federal Non-discrimination statutes.
If our city, county or agency is covered by Title VI, what does that mean to them?
The FHWA requires each local entity that receives Federal funds through ITD to establish a Title VI Program of their own in order to prevent discrimination in the provision of benefits and services. This Title VI Program is a system of policies and procedures designed to monitor compliance, address complaints, and to eliminate discrimination where it is found to exist. In turn, the local entity's Title VI Program is reviewed and evaluated by ITD's Equal Employment Opportunity Office (EEO) to ensure that it is effective in preventing and eliminating discrimination.
Are cities/counties that are granted Federal funds in small amounts and/or very infrequently subject to monitoring by the ITD EEO Office?
Cities and counties that are granted less than $250,000 in Federal funds, and/or receive Federal funding very infrequently will be subject to limited Title VI monitoring. This monitoring will generally require the filing of an annual report each year during the life of the project.
Cities and counties that generally receive ongoing funding, or a one-time grant in excess of $1,000,000 will undergo at least one on-site review during the life of the project. This review will require that the city/county provide documentation of their efforts, along with an annual report describing their activities in the Title VI requirements.
What is the purpose of the Title VI Non-Discrimination Agreement?
The Title VI Non-Discrimination Agreement is a legal document that imposes individual legal liabilities to the signatory agency that are not transferable. Each public agency must develop the agreement to reflect its individual Federal aid transportation program structure. The non-discrimination agreement is incorporated into the funding document and is developed as part of that process.
How does a Local Public Agency (LPA) make the public aware that it is covered by Title VI?
All LPA's and any other Federal aid recipient/subrecipient have an obligation to notify the public that they are bound by Title VI and program requirements. A Policy Statement recognizing Title VI and its requirements is a good way to satisfy this requirement. The Policy Statement certifies that the LPA understands its responsibilities under Title VI. It can serve as notice to the public and can be published in the local newspaper and on the LPA's website. It can also be adopted by the LPA's Board or Commissioners as another way to showing support for the concept of ensuring and preventing discrimination. A sample, one-page Policy Statement is located on ITD's EEO website.
What key requirements should an LPA be aware of?
Non-discrimination – There must be no discrimination in any of your programs and services. For example, an LPA should not discriminate in the selection of contractors, ensuring that all contractors are selected fairly and provided an equal opportunity to compete for work. LPA's must pass non-discrimination requirements on to contractors that are selected for work.
Also, there should be no discrimination in any of your employment practices in connection with highway construction projects or other projects assisted by the FHWA.
Assurances Required – Each LPA agreement will include an assurance that the program will be conducted, or the facility operated in a non-discriminatory manner.
Voluntary Compliance – LPA's are required to cooperate in obtaining compliance with Title VI. ITD will provide assistance and guidance to LPA's in obtaining their compliance.
Data Collection – LPA's are required to keep accurate and complete records necessary to determine whether they are complying with Title VI. All required reports should be submitted in a timely manner. In addition, LPA's should have available racial and ethnic data showing the extent to which members of minority groups are beneficiaries of programs receiving Federal financial assistance.
We have a planning project – what kinds of Title VI issues should we be sure are considered?
The most important Title VI issue for planning projects is to ensure that there is adequate public involvement, particularly for populations that are traditionally underserved communities. Inadequate efforts to reach and involve low income, minority, disabled and Limited English Proficient (LEP) populations during the planning process can result in denying these groups the opportunity to participate in public decisions on transportation systems and projects directly affecting them.
Consider whether there is effective public involvement and participation:
Ensure that input from minority groups/persons is seriously considered:
Coordinating appropriately with Native American tribal governments in transportation planning:
Adequate data collection:
Contracting opportunities for planning studies, corridor studies, or other work must be provided to minorities and women:
What do we need to know about requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act?
Planning for a project must include aspects that comply with the American's With Disabilities Act (ADA), such as curb ramps and landings, continuous sidewalks, and detectable warnings:
We will be overseeing a consultant who will be conducting an environmental study – what should we watch for in the consultant's work?
The most commonly used environmental option is a Categorical Exclusion (CE). This is a determination that a project will have no significant individual or cumulative significant environmental effects. In other words, the project would not have significant impacts on planned growth or land use for the area; does not require the relocation of significant numbers of people; does not have a significant impact on any natural, cultural, recreational, historic or other resource; does not involve significant air, noise, or water quality impacts; do not have significant impacts of travel patterns; or does not otherwise either individually or cumulatively have any significant environmental impacts.
A list of project types that have been determined to meet the CE criteria and to have no significant impacts are provided in 23 CFR 771.117(c) and (d). Some of these activities, for example are utility installations; bicycle and pedestrian lanes, paths and facilities; installation of fencing, signs and pavement markings; small passenger shelters; traffic signals; railroad warning devices; emergency repairs; improvements to rest areas and truck weigh stations, reconstruction or modification of an existing bridge structure on essentially the same alignment or location; minor modifications of an existing highway; and highway safety or traffic operation improvement projects.
There should be adequate documentation to show that consideration was made of existing environmental conditions and the potential for a proposed project to negatively or positively affect or impact the human environment has been determined to be minor or non-existent.
A good environmental analysis will include identified beneficial and adverse impacts. Where significant adverse impact is determined to exist, mitigation measures should be identified and provided in the environmental document.
We will be dealing with Right-of-Way issues as part of our project which may include appraisals, negotiation and relocation – what are the Title VI issues to watch for?
Title VI requirements of non-discrimination apply during all phases of the right of way process. For Federally funded projects, ITD requires that appraisers be hired from its Qualified Appraisers List. For all other locally funded projects, the city/county can hire outside of the ITD list.
When contract appraisers are hired, the contracting and assignment process must be done without restriction as to race, color, national origin, sex, age, or disability. Available and qualified minority and/or disadvantaged appraisers must be included in the hiring process. Excessive qualifications standards may impose unacceptable barriers.
Information gathering, analysis and reporting must be objective and nondiscriminatory. Some examples of how appraisal reports may reflect bias are by including unfounded statements, inappropriate data, prejudicial analysis or misleading conclusions. Such practices are unethical and illegal. The same concerns may apply to appraisal review reports.
Every effort must be made to negotiate for required property before filing condemnation. Property owners must be fully informed of their rights to receive just compensation for their property before any donation of such property. It is important that minimum payment and related policies are consistently applied from project to project.
Relocation advisory assistance must be provided equitably, and the selection of comparable replacement housing must be fair, consistent and with discrimination. Extra care must be taken relocation issues involve a minority community where there are residents with limited English proficiency (LEP) or low education levels. It may be necessary to translate vital documents into other languages and provide interpreters from the very first contact.
If we are awarding contracts or agreements for a project that includes Federal funding (or Federal reimbursement) what should we be aware of?

There's a fear among computer owners that when the hardware breaks down, they can potentially lose all their important files. If you don't want to lose your files, whether personal or work-related, you should make sure that you have a storage solution in case of hardware failure. Especially since other back up options like burning file CDs or storing files in external hard drive can also potentially lead to file loss. When thinking about how your hardware could suddenly give out, you should consider storage solutions that are based online. You can find different online solutions that you can use for file storage. If you want to know more about online storage and the differences between services that offer them, you can try to find resources that can provide you with this information. You may go to these resources that have Carbonite that you may use to discover the right storage solution for you. The articles on the service contain information on how it works by backing up your files from your computer.
You can use these review sites to provide you with insight on how certain online storage solutions or services fare against each other. When looking for storage services that allow you to store files from more than one device, Zip Cloud reviews is something that you should read from these resources. There are online storage solutions that can only be used on a single PC, while other plans cover a number of devices as part of the overall service. Comparing the different storage services should make it easy to find one that will suit your needs.
You should also consider the level of security offered by an online storage service when your files usually contain sensitive information. Reading on a Spider Oak can give you an idea on an individual service's level of security. The review site can give you an idea or a rating of the service's security, ensuring that all of your confidential documents can only be accessed by you or individuals who have permission to view them. You can also refer to these review sites to find out about how much storage space each service offers, as well as the rates that you have to pay for when you need a certain amount of online storage space.

I've recently bought a Burley D'Lite trailer and Mongoose hybrid bike so that I can still get some riding when I am doing Daddy Daycare with my two children on weekends. We are having a great time except that I am finding the whole process of loading the kids into the trailer, hitching and getting going and also when stopping a bit 'messy' and has resulted in the resting bike falling over a couple of times when I am concentrating on the children and trailer. My principal concern is to avoid damage to the bike.
I assume that someone out there has worked out the solution - either a bike stand or the right 'order' to do things so that everything and everyone is happy. My kids are 3 years and 18 months so are not really all that controllable yet. I have begun to change the order of doing things so that I hitch the trailer to the bike only when everyone is in and we are about to go and unhitch at the other end before letting everyone out so that I can put the bike somewhere safe - it is a bit time consuming - anyone been able to master this in a different way?

Conference on "Progressive Family Values" April 21 at Yale Law School
"In recent times, the term 'family values' has come to be understood as opposed to progressive thought and advocacy," said conference organizer Stephen Ruckman '08. "This conference challenges that conventional wisdom. Bringing together leading thinkers and practitioners on family issues, the conference aims to highlight the ways in which progressives are fighting—on principled grounds—for policies that support the American family in all its forms."
The event begins with a welcome from Yale Law School Dean Harold Hongju Koh at 10:00 a.m., followed by three panel discussions throughout the day. It concludes with a reception from 4:00 -5:00 p.m. and dinner from 5:00 -7:00 p.m.
Panel I, from 10:10 a.m. - 11:40 a.m., is titled "What Are Progressive Family Values?" Panelists are Representative Rosa DeLauro, D-CT, 3rd District; Professor Linda McClain, Hofstra University School of Law; and Professor George Lakoff, University of California at Berkeley, and Senior Fellow, The Rockridge Institute. The moderator is Professor Reva Siegel, Yale Law School.
Panel II, from 12:00 p.m. - 1:40 p.m., is titled "What's Not Working For Families?" Panelists are Mark Greenberg, Center for Law and Social Policy and Center for American Progress; Professor Jacob Hacker, Yale University; and Professor Robert Lerman, American University and Urban Institute. The moderator is Professor Anne Alstott, Yale Law School.
Panel III, from 2:00 p.m. - 3:40 p.m., is titled "Advocating Our Family Values." Panelists are Karen Kornbluh, Policy Director, Office of U.S. Senator Barack Obama; Professor Nina Pillard, Georgetown University Law Center; and Judy Scott, General Counsel, Service Employees International Union. The moderator is Professor Ariela Dubler, Columbia Law School.
To register for the conference, visit http://yaleacs.org/conference.asp or email email@example.com. Advance registration is required for the lunch and the dinner.
The American Constitution Society for Law and Policy is engaged in the movement to ensure that the fundamental principles of human dignity, individual rights and liberties, genuine equality, and access to justice are in their rightful, central place in American law.
The Yale Women Faculty Forum seeks to highlight the presence of women at the university and the accomplishments of Yale alumnae.

The annual Burger King Awards Banquet hosted a special guest. Greg Stube is the host of Coming Home, a show airing on the Sportsman Channel.
This retired special forces member was terribly wounded in Afghanistan. Five years ago he was hit by shrapnel and a whole area of his leg had to be rebuilt along with losing the majority of his intestine and suffering multiple gunshot wounds.
After a year of recovery, he embarked on a television show that would showcase the beauty of America and the wonders of freedom.
He traveled to Parkersburg to spread his love of country and story of hope.
"We do have a culture of service. I want people to live by that and serve each other and love each other," says Stube. "I think that my experiences can help illuminate the beauty of our culture and the freedom of America."
Stube travels the country speaking of perserverance and purpose. To find out more about his show, you can go to www.cominghome.tv.

Sharks took to the field having won only one of the last eight games against their hosts, that being 2 years ago and coincided with Steve Diamond's return to the club.
Saracens are on the top of their form at the moment before this game having lost only one of their last eight games in the Aviva Premiership, that being away to Worcester on 23rd November when they lost 3-12.
The game was Saracens 159th and last premiership game at Vicarage Road. They have an impressive record of winning 112 (70%). They move to Barnet later this month to a purpose built stadium.
Mark Cueto took to the field hoping to grab the one try he needs to become the all time try scoring record holder in the premiership, having scored on his debut at Bristol in 2001.
Former Shark Charlie Hodgson topped the Saracens points scoring list this season with 136 in the Premiership and has an 80% kicking success. Danny Cipriani with his 18 points last Friday against Worcester improved his kicking percentage to 77%.
Sharks started the brighter and went into a 6-0 lead with two penalties from Danny Cipriani who has now kicked his last 9 kicks at goal.
Sale started to concede penalties as referee Wigglesworth seemed to go on a 'ping fest' and Owen Farrell kicked five paenalties. Indeed referee Wigglesworth spoke to Tuitupou about Sharks discipline and threatened a yellow card if it continued.
Sharks lost Andy Powell on 20 minutes and he was replaced by new signing Daniel Braid who was soon in the thick of the action tackling and organising the troops. Powell has a suspected broken hand
Sharks were far from outplayed by the home side and looked dangerous as they moved forward.
Half Time Saracens 15 Sale Sharks 6
Sharks came out firing hoping to claw their way back into the game and Danny Cipriani reduced the arrears to 15-9 on 50 minutes, unfortunately the hosts moved nine points ahead again.
Sharks started to make their substitutions with Eifion Lewis Roberts and Alasdair Dickinson on for Ross Harrison and Tony Buckley. Cameron Shepherd replaced Tom Brady after the youngster had made a couple of handling errors in quick succession.
On the hour Sharks had their best chance of the game with an overlap but Kearnan Myall's pass to Cueto went straight into touch.
On 62 minutes Cipriani kicked his 4th penalty to reduce the arrears but it was short lived as David Strettle went in for a Saracens try on 62 minutes. Farrell converted. 25-12
On 70 minutes former Sale Sharks legend Charlie Hodgson latched on to a David Strettle grubber kick to score for Saracens between the posts. Farrell converted and built the lead to 32-12.
Sale Sharks: 15 Rob Miller, 14 Tom Brady (off 57mins), 13 Johnny Leota, 12 Sam Tuitupou, 11 Mark Cueto, 10 Danny Cipriani, 9 Dwayne Peel (off 68mins), 1 Ross Harrison (off 56mins), 2 Marc Jones, 3 Tony Buckley (off 57mins), 4 Richie Gray (off 76mins), 5 Kearnan Myall, 6 James Gaskell, 7 Richie Vernon, 8 Andy Powell (off 21mins)
Replacements: 16 Aston Croall, 17 Alasdair Dickinson (on Harrison 56mins), 18 Eifion Lewis Roberts (on Buckley 57mins), 19 Tom Holmes (on Gray 76mins), 20 Daniel Braid (on Powell 21mins), 21 Will Cliff (on Peel 68mins), 22 Charlie Amesbury, 23 Cameron Shepherd (on Brady 57mins)
Score Sequence (Saracens First): 0-3, 0-6, 3-6, 6-6, 9-6, 12-6, 15-6 (Half Time) 15-9, 18-9, 18-12, 23-12, 25-12, 30-12, 32-12 (Full Time)

BURLINGTON - The basketball career of Albany's Kylie Atwood has continued at the University of Vermont.
Atwood, a freshman, has gotten good minutes for the Lady Cats this season, including six starts for the 7-17 ballclub. Atwood played 25 minutes against American East foe and power Boston University Wednesday night. The Cats lost by nine to the 21-4 Terriers. The former Lake Region Lady Ranger has made the switch to Division One woman's basketball and is enjoying the ride.
For more on Kylie's story, see Friday's edition of The Newport Daily Express for Feb. 15, 2013.
NEWPORT CENTER – Newport Center needs a new fire truck, and the town will ask voters on Town Meeting Day to approve $25,000 a year for the next four years for the purchase.
Chief Kurk Flynn said the department wants to replace a 1975 pumper truck that has massive amounts of rust, which makes it unsafe.
JAY–It has been four years coming, and it was worth the wait, as the North Country boy's hockey team finally defeated the BFA Bobwhites by a 3-2 margin on Wednesday night at the Ice Haus Arena.
"I was very happy for the guys to come away with the victory, especially with all of the stories that they have heard about BFA," said NCU coach Andrew Roy. "It was a good game of hockey, we limited their scoring opportunities, had a few of our own and won the game."
Chris Bronson stopped 17 shots as North Country improves to 11-4-1. The two Bobwhite goalies combined to stop 16 for 6-8-2 BFA.
NEWPORT - It took seven hours to retrieve Paul Lavalette's truck from the bottom of Lake Memphremagog last Sunday.Â
The truck was located at a depth of 25 feet. The first step in retrieving the truck was locating it. Will Jennison, owner of JD Company of Johnson, VT, said the truck's front end was buried in several feet of mud.Â
The truck was lifted from the bottom using air bags and pulled to a hole near the shore before being pulled out.
LOWELL – The Vermont Energy Generation Siting Commission toured the Kingdom Community Wind project in Lowell Tuesday. Later that evening, the five-member commission held its third public hearing at the Lowell Village School to a crowd of several hundred people.
Gov. Peter Shumlin appointed the commission to recommend best practices for improving how power generation sites are chosen and how to get public input.
The commission's next session will be Feb. 20 in Montpelier. Attendees could speak about anything related to energy; most stuck with the topic of wind.Â
NEWPORT – Bill Stenger's Q-Resorts does not yet own the Spates Block in Newport City, but will likely very soon.
Q-Resorts has an agreement with Doug and Vivian Spates to buy the block, which stretches from Central Street to Second Street, but the closing has yet to occur. It was scheduled for the end of December, and then the end of January, but it didn't happen, and Doug Spates said he does not know why or when it will.
Spates speculates that there are hold-ups somewhere and said he thinks it could have to do with an environmental certificate, but doesn't know the details.
NEWPORT–In the second game of a back-to-back, the North Country girls fell to second-seeded Rice Memorial on Tuesday night at the Falcon Gymnasium.
Said NCU coach Christiane Brown on playing two nights in a row, "It was not tough for us because we were the underdogs. If we had been the favorites in the game, then it might be a different story."
Friday night will wrap up a busy week for the 5-10 Falcons, as they welcome in 3-12 St. Johnsbury.
Abbott–– Jerry Dean, 59, of Newport, VT passed away February 9, 2013 at his home surrounded by his family.
For the full obituary see Wednesday's Express.
NEWPORT – The St. Albans woman charged in the fatal car crash that killed a local couple was once the subject of a Burlington Free Press article about her struggle with addiction. Alexis Gabree pleaded innocent Tuesday to two counts of gross negligent operation of a motor vehicle, death resulting.
The head-on crash, which occurred August 5, 2012 on VT 105 in North Troy, killed retired husband and wife Edmund and Margaret Moran. Gabree is currently in custody on $50,000 bail.
COVENTRY – Pedro Grondin, during last year's annual Town Meeting, lit the flame that sparked the interest for Coventry to start its own fire department. This year, residents will vote if they want to continue with the process or extinguish the idea.
Voters will also be asked if they want to authorize the select board to spend no more than $515,000 for the purpose of building, equipping and establishing the first year's budget. If approved, the department would be part of the town's operating budget. Since the town doesn't have a municipal budget, property taxes won't be affected.

Reprinted from Sleeping Hedgehog which you really should visit.
Spring has arrived here along the North Atlantic coast with warm temperatures and misty mornings. I had my first cup of Turkish coffee very early this morning while listening to the sound of bagpipes playing off in the fog while the geese flew overhead on their way north making their usual honking sounds.
I got thinking about pipes so went looking in the Archives to see if we looked at the history of piping in English and Celtic musical traditions. I found some excellent works for you to consider reading but I will note that many of these works assume that you can read music!
But first off you should read Charles de Lint's The Little Country, as it has one of the finest and warmest depictions of a small pipes player you're likely to find anywhere in the character of Janey Little. It also links directly to Border piping as this small piper considers Billy Pigg, a Border pipes player, to be her inspiration.
There's even a very nice biography, Billy Pigg: The Border Minstrel, which includes tunes Pigg composed, published by the Northumbrian Piping Society.
The English piping tradition in large part owes its revival in the Eighties to Blowzabella, as their drone-based music was both traditional and modern sounding at the same time. We reviewed their latest CD, Dance, here. Their latest tune book, Blowzabella: New Tunes for Dancing, naturally has their tunes in it, but also has a superb look at the band and its members down the years.
Tunes of the Munster Pipers: Irish Traditional Music from the James Goodman Manuscripts will give you, provided you read music, a superb look at those tunes you've no doubt heard myriad times played by The Neverending Session here in our Pub.
Traditional Gaelic Bagpiping 1745–1945, on the other hand, is more readable and you give an excellent look at Scottish bagpiping history, but I will warn the Scottish pipers reading this that the author debunks the entire assumed history of Scottish piping which has been handed down by proponents of this piping tradition through the centuries!
A footnote: the image is a fifteenth-century carving on the Manchester Cathedral. Like Green Men, bagpipers on cathedrals and smaller churches became common starting in the Fourteenth Century in England.

We would like to acknowledge the extraordinary generosity of the Taub family—Marc, Sandy, Jake, and Chloe—for generously dedicating this beautiful chanukiyah.
Baruch atah, Adonai Eloheinu, Melech haolam, asher kid'shanu b'mitzvotav v'tsivanu l'hadlik ner shel Chanukah.
Blessed are You, Adonai our God, Sovereign of all, who hallows us with mitzvot, commanding us to kindle the Chanukah lights.
Baruch atah, Adonai Eloheinu, Melech haolam, she-asah nisim laavoteinu v'imoteinu bayamim hahaeim baz'man hazeh.
Blessed are You, Adonai our God, Sovereign of all, who performed wondrous deeds for our ancestors in days of old at this season.
Baruch atah, Adonai Eloheinu, Melech haolam, shehecheyanu v'kiy'manu v'higianu laz'man hazeh.
Blessed are You, Adonai our God, Sovereign of all, for giving us life, for sustaining us, and for enabling us to reach this season.
The celebration of Chanukah today is based on the conflation of two stories: one historical, and one legendary. The historical events on which the holiday is based can be found in I and II Maccabees, two books contained in the Apocrypha. The Apocrypha, which means "hidden writings," refers to books considered for inclusion in the Hebrew Biblical canon, but ultimately rejected.Chanukah celebrates the victory of religious and cultural freedom. This independence was won by the Jews through a revolt led by the Maccabees against the Syrians and King Antiochus in 165 B.C.E. Israel was under Syrian control at that time, and Syria had been forced to accept the Greeks' way of life - their religion, political structure, customs and culture - by Alexander the Great before his death. King Antiochus, one of Alexander's generals, planned to Hellenize the Jews as well- they were not permitted to observe Jewish holidays, study Torah, or celebrate their life occasions. Although some Jews were enamored with Hellenism and fully assimilated into Greek culture, many felt they had no choice but to revolt. A priest named Mattathias and his five sons (who took the name "Maccabees"), started the rebellion. Vastly outnumbered, the Maccabees emerged victorious, recaptured and rededicated the Temple in Jerusalem, which had been desecrated by the Syrian-Greek army. The name "Chanukah" means "dedication," honoring this event.
The legend of Chanukah comes from the Talmud, the collection of Oral Law in Judaism. The Talmud, in tractate Shabbat 21b, tells the story of the Maccabees having reclaimed the Temple and their desire to kindle its eternal light. However, they found only one small jar of oil, sufficient to burn for only one day. But miraculously, the oil lasted for eight days - thus, Chanukah is an eight-day holiday.
Although today Chanukah is one of the most well known Jewish celebrations in North America, for the majority of Jewish history it was a very minor holiday. Because it is not biblically based, it did not originally share the status of the other major Jewish holidays. Only in the late 1800s did Chanukah take hold in North America, thanks to a small group of young Jews in Philadelphia who wanted a more thriving Jewish holiday life.
Because of Chanukah's temporal proximity to Christmas, Chanukah has grown in popularity and observance. (Chanukah also borrows the custom of gift giving directly from Christmas.) It is important to note, however, that Christmas and Chanukah are linked not only on the calendar, but also in their origins. Both festivals emerged as a response to the winter solstice in ancient times. A fixation with light in the dead of winter is understandable. We can imagine, thousands of years ago, the religious and psychological questions and fears that arose in the midst of the encompassing darkness of December. The shortest daylight period of the year, the cold weather, and the emotional sense of isolation that often accompanies darkness undoubtedly led our ancestors (of every religious tradition) to create rituals that would help them to dispel the darkness and create light. In Judaism, the light accompanying these rituals shone through the candelabras of the ancient Temple, and those candelabras ultimately emerged as the Chanukah menorah.
Chanukah was born when a few, highly motivated patriots were able to overcome the superior forces of a tyrant. When Jews have been motivated by their beliefs to pursue noble human ideals, Judaism has flourished.
Chanukah teaches that spirit can triumph over force; that deeply held principles and passionate morale can overcome mighty armies. This sentiment is captured in the words of the prophet Zechariah that we read on the Shabbat of Chanukah: "Not by armies and not by might but my spirit."Jews have always maintained this belief; had we not, we would have disappeared long ago.
Chanukah reinforces the notion that each faith and creed has the sacred right to be different, to uphold its own ideas and principles, and to serve God in its own unique way. Hellenism sought to homogenize all faiths and cultures, but the Maccabees succeeded in battling for the right to uphold Judaism in a world of paganism.
The pressure to adopt Hellenistic culture was so great that certain elements within Jewish society sought to become fully assimilated and accepted as Greek citizens. Those that chose to keep their faith so that Judaism could live are heroic. The story of Chanukah is really the age-old struggle of Jewish people to remain Jewish in a non-Jewish world.
Perhaps the most important message of Chanukah is hope. The lesson of hope is typical of Judaism; we have never surrendered to the dark night of despair (whether in our national history or in our personal lives). By lighting just one candle, we illuminate the blackest of nights. Many would say this is what it means to be Jewish.
The phrase "December Dilemma" refers to the angst, confusion and sadness that certain groups sometimes experience during the winter holiday season. For converts to Judaism, December can be a painful reminder of a tradition that was extremely difficult to give up. For interfaith families, December can be a time of confusion in the home, as parents strive to provide their children with what they feel is the most enriching religious experience. And for Jews, December reminds us that we are in the minority - we do not celebrate Christmas, but it is pervasive. Thus, December poses a dilemma for many groups.
For those who have chosen Judaism or those studying toward conversion, giving up Christmas is often one of the most difficult things to contemplate and undertake. For many in this group, December is filled with tender nostalgia - the search for the perfect tree, the annual climb up to the attic for decorations, and the fun of adorning the tree with lights, tinsel and heirloom ornaments. The smell of pine, the holiday music playing in the home, the large family Christmas dinner and, of course, the watch for Santa Claus. All of these powerful memories come flooding back in December, posing not only a dilemma, but often a crisis of faith. Even those for whom Christmas had little to do with Christ, giving up the family traditions can be daunting and sorrowful. Although Judaism offers many warm and wonderful holidays, losing Christmas is indeed a loss; one that is mourned each December. In addition, it is important to note that parents and siblings of those converting do not convert, and so challenges of balancing extended families, celebrations and gift-giving inevitably emerge. During this season, it can be a struggle for those new to Judaism to resist the feeling of being outsiders in their own families.
For interfaith families, navigating a season dominated by Christmas can be confusing and anxiety provoking. In an attempt not to deprive their children of anything, many couples decide to celebrate both Christmas and Chanukah in their homes. As a result, the meanings of the holidays often become diluted, and attention too easily turns to the superficial component shared by each – that is, gift-giving. And like families of converts, interfaith families often must balance extended families of different religions, each wanting the main celebration to be of their own holiday.

WATERTOWN A pair of leaders with a combined 57 years of experience at Bernier, Carr & Associates will retire together at the end of 2013.
The company announced Tuesday that CEO Bernard H. Bernie Brown Jr. and Pamela S. Beyor, board of directors chairwoman, will finish their final year at the Watertown firm. Taking over day-to-day operations of the firm that were previously managed by Mrs. Beyor will be Kris D. Dimmick, who has been promoted to vice president of operations. Mr. Dimmick, who was previously the vice president of municipal engineering, joined the firm in 1991.
The leadership transition was long in the making at the firm launched in 1970, which now has a staff of 79 employees and an extensive portfolio of architectural design, engineering, construction management and surveying work across the north country. Mr. Brown and Mrs. Beyor, who respectively joined the firm in 1984 and 1985, began planning their retirement together in 2006. This past year, the firm hired consultants who conducted a study to evaluate the firms strengths and weaknesses.
Mr. Brown said that study will provide guidance for the firms 11 partners to guide the companys future.
This last year we decided it was time to do this, the 60-year-old said. In this industry, the firms that are the most successful do a lot of things during the leadership transition.
After making all of the management decisions at the firm for the past 15 years, Mr. Brown and Mrs. Beyor are confident emerging leaders are ready to take over the helm.
We realized that it was now the right time for us to pass the torch to new leaders, said Mr. Brown. We both have very strong personalities as leaders, and we thought it would be difficult for one of us to stay and one of us to go. Theyll now be able to rise up as leaders in the firm.

Report Information
On May 21, 2010, the updated EPA's Reanalysis of Key Issues Related to Dioxin Toxicity and Response to NAS Comments report was released for external peer review and public comment. This report was renamed after interagency comments from the original report title of EPA's Response to "Health Risks from Dioxin and Related Compounds Evaluation of the EPA Reassessment" Published by the National Research Council of the National Academies. The document was reviewed internally by EPA and by other federal agencies and White House Offices before public release. In the new IRIS process, introduced by the EPA Administrator, all written comments on IRIS assessments submitted by other federal agencies and White House Offices are made publicly available. Accordingly, interagency comments and the interagency science consultation draft report and the charge to external peer reviewers are posted on this site.

The NAS identified three areas in the 2003 draft reassessment that required substantial improvement to support a more scientifically robust risk characterization. These three areas were: (1) justification of approaches to dose-response modeling for cancer and non-cancer endpoints; (2) transparency and clarity in selection of key data sets for analysis; and (3) transparency, thoroughness, and clarity in quantitative uncertainty analysis. The NAS provided EPA with recommendations to address their key concerns. The Draft Response to Comments report, which is being provided for public review and comment, responds to the key recommendations included in NAS's 2006 report. This draft report includes significant new analyses on both the potential cancer and noncancer human health effects that may result from of exposures to dioxins. For instance, the Draft Response to Comments report addresses the explicit recommendation of the NAS to develop a quantitative risk estimate for noncancer effects that may result from long-term (chronic) oral exposure to dioxins. Thus, the Draft Response to Comments report includes an oral reference dose (RfD) for TCDD; the most well studied and considered to be the most toxic of the dioxin-like compounds. An RfD was not in the 2003 draft dioxin reassessment.
In addition, in 2003 EPA and other federal agencies developed a set of questions and answers related to dioxins. They have updated them about every year and a half. These materials have again been updated to include more recent information. These questions and answers provide general information on dioxins such as what they are, where they can be found, and major sources of dioxins. They also discuss possible effects of dioxin exposure in humans, include advice about consumption of food that might contain dioxins, and explain the review process for the dioxin reassessment.
|Oct 2004
|EPA released the NAS External Review Draft of the Dioxin Assessment, in preparation for the first NAS panel meeting (held 11/22 -23/2004), in Wash., DC. This is still the most current version of the EPA Dioxin Assessment.
|Jul 2006
|NAS released Health Risks from Dioxin and Related Compounds: Evaluation of the EPA Reassessment.
|Nov 2008
|EPA released a preliminary search list to address EPA's Reponses to the NAS comments on the 2003 Dioxin Reassessment report.
|Feb 2009
|EPA hosted a 3-day public, scientific workshop to assist EPA in responding to the NAS reports on Dioxin. [ Workshop Announcement and details]
|Jun 2009
|EPA released the Dioxin Workshop Summary report containing discussions and conclusions from the Feb 18-20, 2009 workshop held in Cincinnati, Ohio.
|Feb 2010
|EPA initiated an interagency science consultation on the review of the draft document on EPA's Reanalysis of Key Issues Related to Dioxin Toxicity and Response to NAS Comments and charge for external peer reviewers.
|May 2010
|EPA released to the public the Interagency Science Consultation draft Dioxin Reanalysis report and charge questions along with the External Peer Review draft Dioxin Reanalysis.

Stephenie Meyer, whose books inspired the "Twilight" (2008) movies, now presents a new way for true love to struggle against itself. In the "Twilight" world, characters were invited to become vampires to share more fully the lives of those they loved. "The Host" presents a possibility that, if anything, is a deeper commitment. Earth has been invaded by a race of "souls" who inhabit human bodies, stripping them of their memories and identities. It's the way the alien race survives and spreads.
We meet Melanie Stryder (Saoirse Ronan), who through some sort of glitch, is inhabited by an alien soul but still retains, there inside her mind, her own identity. This leads to interior conversations between the Soul Melanie and the Earth Melanie. Soul Melanie (known as Wanderer) falls in love with Earth Melanie, even though in theory this isn't possible because the Wanderer has become Melanie. This intimate form of self-love leads to dialogue that will possibly be found humorous by some people. When Wanda is about to kiss the boy she loves, for example, the film uses voiceover to warn her: "No, Melanie! Wrong! No! He's from another planet!"
True, in our own lives, we pick up warnings on that frequency: No! You'll get pregnant! No! He's from the other side of town! No! He's your best friend's boyfriend!" I imagine this as a version of one of those debates where little angels with harps and devils with pitchforks perch on your shoulders.
Much of the film is set in New Mexico, where a band of surviving humans hides inside an "almost" extinct volcano. Using sunlight reflected by walls of mirrors they can crank up and down, they raise crops for their agrarian eco-system.
Melanie and her soul venture forth to find her other Stryder relatives. They are united with Jeb (William Hurt, a bearded patriarch), Maggie (Frances Fisher) and young Jamie (Chandler Canterbury). They hide from soul patrols in search cars and helicopters, allowing "The Host" to get by with a few simple sets, including a tunnel that always looks like the same tunnel. The Souls are determined to track down all evaders, and at the outset I gather they've already enlisted more or less all the humans on Earth, except for members of the Stryder family.
"The Host" was directed by Andrew Niccol, who co-wrote the script with Stephenie Meyer. Niccol is attracted to films about humans living (whether they realize it or not) in artificial societies. He wrote "The Truman Show" (1998), about a man living inside his own reality show and observed on TV by humankind, and directed "Gattaca," about another kind of artificial society. His films' ground rules limit the depth and variety of possible relationships, and "The Host" is top-heavy with profound, sonorous conversations, all tending to sound like farewells. The movie is so consistently pitched at the same note, indeed, that the structure robs it of possibilities for dramatic tension.

Morning decadence at its best—vegan-style. Simplify this recipe by skipping the Amaretto Crème and serving it with fresh berries and a bit of maple syrup. Although, if you're a sucker for anything almond-flavored, the crème is a must.
Amaretto Crème
1. Prepare Amaretto Crème: In a high-speed blender, blend all ingredients until smooth.
French Toast
1 ½ cup vanilla almond milk
¼ cup whole spelt flour
2 Tbsp nutritional yeast (optional)
1 Tbsp cinnamon
¼ cup maple syrup or date paste
¼ tsp nutmeg powder
½ Tbsp vanilla extract
sea salt, to taste
1 whole-grain baguette or your favorite whole-grain bread (whole-grain cinnamon raisin bread is superb as well)
3 Tbsp Earth Balance (or any vegan butter)
fresh berry (optional)
toasted pecan or maple candied pecan (optional)
2. Prepare French Toast: In a medium bowl, whisk the almond butter, almond milk, flour, yeast, cinnamon, maple syrup, nut- meg, vanilla, and salt to make the batter, or blend ingredients in blender until smooth. Set aside.
3. Slice the baguette or other bread in thick slices. Dip bread slices into batter. Allow each slice to sit in the batter for a min- ute, which helps it absorb more.
4. Add tablespoon vegan butter to a flat pan, flat grill, or large saute pan on medium heat. Once melted, add battered bread slice. Add additional tablespoon of vegan butter for each bread slice. (It's okay if the slices are wet with lots of batter— this is what creates the delicious crust.)
5. Cook on medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Flip with spatula, and cook other side until lightly golden.
6. Serve: Drizzle Amaretto Crème on while French Toast is still warm and top with a generous handful of fresh berries and pecans.
TIP: How to make date paste: Blend 1 cup of pitted dates with 1 cup filtered water until a thick paste forms. The paste will keep in the fridge for two weeks. Dates add a sweet kiss to smoothies, dressings, sauces, or desserts, without adding refined sugar.

Maiku Kamishiro's past has always been somewhat of a mystery to him.

In an attempt to find his family, he moves to this blue house and begins working as a programmer.

"Compared to some of the giants of history who have received this prize... my accomplishments are slight," said Barack Obama as he accepted the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize in Norway on Thursday.
In a humble speech, the US president acknowledged he had been a controversial recipient of the prestigious humanitarian prize "in part... because I am at the beginning, and not the end, of my labour on the world stage."
Previous Nobel laureates, who have included Nelson Mandela, Mother Teresa and The Dalai Lama, had been "far more deserving of this honour than I", he admitted.
Accompanying him to the ceremony in Oslo was wife Michelle Obama, who chose a similar ensemble to the one she wore for her husband's inauguration back in January.
Also there to witness the historic occasion were actor Will Smith, wife Jada Pinkett Smith and their daughter Willow.
The husband and wife duo are due to host the Nobel Peace Prize concert, featuring Wyclef Jean, Donna Summer and Natasha Bedingfield, in Oslo on Friday.
Prior to accepting his award Barack and Michelle met up with members of the Norwegian royal family, including Queen Sonja, King Harald, Crown Princess Mette-Marit and Crown Prince Haakon, at the royal castle in Oslo.

Archive for the 'New England MG T Register' tag
One of the world's oldest M.G.s visits Hemmings Motor News
Hemmings Motor News's own Sibley Shop was honored to welcome a very historic visitor last month when a 1926 M.G. 11.9hp Supersport was brought in for a special display.
The occasion for this visit was the 2013 Kimber Festival, hosted by the New England MG 'T' Register. The annual Kimber Festival is an academic symposium-style conference for M.G. historians and enthusiasts, in which speakers present various topics focusing on different aspects of M.G. history. This year's event was special in that it celebrated the 125th birthday of M.G. founder Cecil Kimber, and the talks would be given on Saturday, April 13, at the Bennington Museum, up the hill from HMN HQ.
We hosted the kick-off reception on Friday evening, and attendees were excited to get their first up-close look at Amherst, New Hampshire, resident Chris Nowlan's "Bullnose" Morris Motors M.G.
We'll let Chris tell the story:
MG International 2006- "A Driving Experience in the Smokies"
Fans of the Octagon flocked to Gatlinburg, Tennessee, from June 21-25 to attend this event, which was hosted by the East Tennessee MG Drivers Club and the North American MMM Register, the New England MG T Register, the North American MGA Register, the North American MGB Register and the American MGC Register. Tech sessions, including talks by Don Hayter, the chief engineer of the MGB, were held, as well as driving tours in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and an all-inclusive car show featuring MGs from the 1920s through 1980. Watch for coverage in Hemmings Motor News, as well as feature stories on the 100,000th MGA show car and a unique left-hand drive 1994 MG RV8 Special in upcoming issues of Hemmings Sports & Exotic Car magazine.

Some owners have fun with their TDs…
While others do the same with their Z-series Magnettes…
Some of the methods used to add cargo space were quite creative!
As were some innovative cupholders. Tetanus shots, anyone?
An impressive line of famous show cars and racers were on display.
And despite the 99-degree heat, a good time was had by all!

Crazy Janey and her mission man were back in the alley tradin' hands
When along came Wild Billy and his friend G-Man, all duded up for Saturday night
Well, Billy slammed on his coaster brakes
Said, "Anybody wanna go on up to Greasy Lake?
It's about a mile down on the dark side of route eighty-eight
I got a bottle of rose, let's try it
We'll pick up Hazy Davy and Killer Joe, and I'll take you all out to where the gypsy angels go
Built like light
And they dance like spirits in the night (all night)
In the night (all night)
Oh, baby don't know what it do to you
Like a spirit in the night (all night)
In the night (all night)
Stand up and let it shoot through you
Wild Billy was a crazy cat and he shook some dust out of his coonskin cap
Cried, "Trust some of this, it'll show you where you're at, at least it'll help you really feel it"
By the time we made it up to Greasy Lake I had my head out the window; Janey's fingers were in the cake
I think I really dug her; I was too loose to fake
Said, "I'm hurt," she said, "Honey, let me heal it"
We danced all night to a soul fairy band
She kissed me just right like only a lonely angel can
Felt so nice, just as soft as a spirit in the night (all night)
All the night (all night)
Baby don't know what it'll do to you
Like a spirit in the night (all night)
All the night (all night)
Stand up and let it shoot through you
The night grew bright, the stars threw light on Billy and Davy
Dancin' in the moonlight
They were down near the water in a stone mud fight
Killer Joe passed out on the lawn
Now, Hazy Davy, he got really hurt, well, he ran into the lake in just his socks and a shirt
Me and Crazy Janey was makin' love in the dirt, singin' our birthday songs
And then Janey said, "Hey, little brother, don't you think it's time we go?"
So we closed our eyes and said goodbye to gypsy angel row, felt so right
Like a spirit in the night (all night)
In the night (all night)
Whoa, don't know what it do to you
Like a spirit in the night (all night)
All the night (all night)
Stand up and let it shoot through you
Like a spirit in the night (all night)
All the night (all night)
All that night (all night)
Oh, all night (all night)
Oh, all night (all night)
All right, ah
Like a spirit in the night
Oh, like a spirit in the night
Yeah, like a spirit in the night
Oh, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, doo, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
The above lyrics are for the live 05 Feb 1975 performance of SPIRIT IN THE
NIGHT at The Main Point in Bryn Mawr, PA, during The Wild, The Innocent, & The E Street
Shuffle Tour. The song was played in a full-band, album-style arrangement, and featured a
jazzy piano and saxophone introduction.
The Main Point was a small coffeehouse venue on Lancaster Avenue in Bryn Mawr,
PA. It was formed in 1964 by Jeanette and William Campbell and four other couples as a small
folk-based coffeehouse venue inspired by the Philadelphia Folk Festival. The venue was famous for
its small intimate atmosphere, homemade food and homebaked goods, and inexpensive ticket prices.
Over the years, various styles of music were presented; the venue hosted many famous performers in
its heydays, including Bruce Springsteen who performed there on no less than 25 dates between 1973
and 1975. He started as an opening act during a 4-night residency in January 1973, and returned in
April as a headliner.
Soon after The Main Point's opening, Bill Scarborough became co-owner and
booking director from 1964-1975. When Philadelphia's Sunday Bulletin asked him in September 1973
how he made booking decisions, Scarborough cited several factors but admitted that occasionally
his own musical tastes influenced him. "I think that the booking of a singer named Bruce
Springsteen is the best example I can give you of personal taste and hunch entering into my final
choice. Here was a new act out of nowhere, who happened to sign with a major label, and put out an
album that reminded me of the best of Dylan. I decided to book him as a headliner, even though he
was barely known. We did alright with him, but not as well as we'd hoped. I still feel, though,
that he's going to be a big star."
The venue was popular among both musicians and listeners. Clarence Clemons
commented in a special Main Point 10th anniversary publication, "The whole band had the flu. Bruce
had 103 degree temperature. If it was any other place but the Main Point, any concert or club in
the country, we would have cancelled."
The Main Point constantly ran into financial problems related to its intimate
size. Ironically, it was its size that made it so popular. Musicians gave benefit concerts for the
coffeehouse to help it out of its financial straits. Some of these concerts were broadcast over
the local progressive rock radio station WMMR-FM, and many well known bootleg recordings have been
made from these performances. Bruce Springsteen's 05 Feb 1975 benefit concert stands out as a
particularly legendary event. The Main Point finally closed its doors in 1981.
At the request of Philadelphia's WMMR-FM disc jockey Ed Sciaky, Bruce
Springsteen and the E Street Band performed a 05 Feb 1975 concert at The Main Point in Bryn Mawr,
PA. This was a benefit show held for the financially struggling club, with Bruce and the band
being the sole act on the bill. The show was MC'd by Sciaky and was broadcast by WMMR-FM on the
same night. The station solicited for donations to be made by phone during the broadcast.
Shortly before he passed away in January 2004, Sciaky told
Backstreets magazine (issue
#82, Spring 2005) that the now-famous broadcast almost never happened. After a promise from Bruce
Springsteen and Mike Appel to do a broadcast of the 02 Feb 1975 Main Point benefit, Springsteen
decided the day of the show that he didn't want it to air. He was playing some new songs, which
would soon appear on his upcoming Born To Run album, and many of them were still
unfinished. Sciaky had to call Springsteen, despite Appel's objections, trying to convince him to
at least do a shortened broadcast. In the end, Springsteen decided to do the whole show on the
The show was not broadcast live-as-it-happened. "We didn't have a phone line
from The Main Point, so they had to tape the show in hour-long segments and then drive them to the
station and put them on the air," Sciaky explained to Backstreets. "And after the final
reel had played, Bruce's lighting guy, Marc Brickman took all of the tapes. So we never got a good
copy of the show. But it was a classic show, and it's collected to this day, and I'm glad."
This famous Main point concert was taped off the airwaves and immediately
started circulating among a number of fans. In the late seventies, an edited from of the broadcast
became available on vinyl bootlegs. This changed in the digital era, when pioneering Italian label
and Springsteen specialists Great Dane Records released the show in 1990 on the 2-disc CD bootleg
The Saint, The Incident & The Main Point Shuffle.
The Saint, The Incident & The Main Point Shuffle utilized the
commonly circulated recording of the broadcast, but a couple of years after its release, a 10-inch
reel-to-reel tape containing the first 90 minutes of the pre-FM recording of The Main Point show
made its way into collectors' hands. On this recording, the sound quality is far superior to the
much more compressed off-air recording. The last 70-plus minutes of the performance, or what's
presumably on a second reel, were never found from the pre-FM source. The discovery of the pre-FM
reel-to-reel tape spurred a host of new bootleg releases, including the first "Masters Plus"
reissue by Great Dane Records itself, which paired the new 90-minute pre-FM recording with the
original FM-sourced remainder of the show.
Part of The Main Point show was legally released in the UK in 2005 by American Legends Limited as
Live On Air, reissued in 2007 by Storming as Transmissions, reissued again in
2010 by Southworld as Live On Air, reissued again in 2011 by Facerock as The Best
"Live On Air" Of Bruce Springsteen, and reissued again in 2014 by The Store For Music as
Live To Air. The complete show was released in 2011 by Left Field Media as a 2-CD set
titled Live At The Main Point, 1975, by Let Them East Vinyl (under exclusive agreement
with Left Field Media) as a 4-LP box set titled Live At The Main Point 1975, and in 2014
by Parallel Lines as part of a 3-CD set titled The Spirit Of The Radio: Legendary Broadcasts
From The Early 1970s that also includes a CD containing the 09 Jan 1973 WBCN-FM radio
broadcast and the 24 Apr 1973 WMMR-FM radio broadcast. Though these releases are not authorized by
Bruce Springsteen or his record company, they are lawful due to a legal loophole in the UK.

Extra Care for developers, providers and partners
Hampshire County Council is looking to stimulate the development of alternative accommodation and care services for the older person population of Hampshire which will allow people to remain active, independent members of the community for as long as they are able.
The establishment of Extra Care schemes, accessible to older people across the whole of the county is a key aspect of our commitment of maintaining vibrant local neighbourhoods. In some locations we anticipate that the Extra Care scheme will become the hub of the community, providing a focus for activity for reaching out beyond those who will live within it.
To meet the growing levels of demand Hampshire County Council has approved a strategy which makes available £45 million of capital funding to support this multi million pound programme.
To deliver the strategic aim of having Extra Care as a viable choice for older people by 2019, Hampshire County Council has agreed to establish a capital fund to facilitate the development of the 'social housing' element of these schemes.
Grants programme
Including the prospectus, a draft agreement, an application form and suitability analysis tool
The Oak Park development
Including principles of development and design guides
Partnership framework
To help support the delivery of Extra Care across Hampshire should be in operation from September 2013

FRIDAY, Feb. 13 (HealthDay News) -- Women who survived Hodgkin's disease as children have a 37-fold higher risk of developing breast cancer than women in the general population, particularly bilateral disease, according to study findings published in the September issue of the International Journal of Radiation Oncology - Biology - Physics.
Swati K. Basu, Ph.D., from the University of Rochester Medical Center in Rochester, N.Y., and colleagues examined the risk of developing breast cancer and time to develop breast cancer and bilateral disease in 398 female survivors of pediatric Hodgkin's disease.
The investigators found that 29 women developed breast cancer after a period of 9.4 to 36.1 years, with a cumulative incidence of 24 percent at 30 years. Bilateral disease developed in 10 of the women (34 percent), with contralateral breast cancer developing after 12 to 34 months. After adjusting for possible confounding factors, Hodgkin's disease diagnosed at an early stage and at an older age (over 12 years old) significantly predicted secondary breast cancer, the researchers report.
"Screening programs to detect breast cancer should be initiated within nine years after Hodgkin's disease," the authors conclude. "Additional studies are also necessary to determine whether patients with early-stage Hodgkin's disease are biologically different and therefore predisposed to develop breast cancer."

Las Vegas, NV (KTNV) -- Las Vegas police need your help to find the crooks who snatched an elderly woman's purse and left her severely injured.
Video on her friend's smartphone shows 85-year-old Sonia Kidd recovering at Summerlin Hospital.
The attack happened at the Wells Fargo Branch on Rainbow and Flamingo on Friday, March 21.
Friend and co-worker Kamalani Kuewa said Sonia described the attack, "As she was going out she was pushed. Somebody grabbed her purse from her and ran off with it, and then somebody else went and grabbed her purse from them, came back and gave it back to her. But she fell and broke her arm and then, that's all she really remembers."
The attack on Sonia follows one that happened at the Palms.
Another elderly woman was injured when her purse was snatched as she walked out of the casino.
Witnesses saw that suspect run away. He's described as a white male, 20 to 30 years of age, 5'10" and about 170 pounds with light brown hair.
Unfortunately, the only description police have in Sonia's case is of two white males who rode away on bikes.
If you know anything about either crime, call Crime stoppers at 385-5555.
