MESILLA >> The walls of the Mesilla Public Safety Building won't come tumbling down. Rather, they're being reinforced.
Work has begun on a nearly $1 million project to renovate and refurbish the Mesilla Public Safety Building. The work began Monday, and this phase of the project is expected to be completed by June 30.
"We're ready for all of this work to finally begin," said Mayor Nora Barraza. "The building has needed those improvements for so long; it's long overdue."
ESA Construction, Inc., of Las Cruces, is the contractor for the project.
Mesilla received $83,000 of reauthorized state capital outlay funds to make structural repairs on the building, to install new cooling and heating, reroof and to add an emergency exit to the Public Works Department area of the building. This money will be expended by June 30.
"This part of the project will go very quickly," said Debra Lujan, Mesilla public works director. "The contractor has already begun stabilizing an interior wall. Later, they will be replacing roof insulation."
Mesilla also has two additional capital outlay allocations, totaling $897,000: a $452,000 appropriation approved by the Legislature in 2013, and $440,000 also allotted by the Legislature earlier this year.
"We're in the process now of officially obtaining all of that money from the state," Barraza said. "We also have to sell bonds for the project from this year's $440,000 the town has been awarded. That should happen in next few months.
"All of that ($897,000) money is important because we've been told it's going to be more cost-effective to make those improvements with one lump sum, rather than try to do the project in phases over multiple years."
John Pate, vice president of architecture for Molzen-Corbin and Associates, a private engineering firm hired by the town of Mesilla, said, "In the next phase, which is in design, we will renovate the remainder of the building for the Fire Department and the Marshal's Department. The building will be brought up to current (building) code and the space will be better organized and more suitable.
"We expect to bid this project sometime this summer."
The Mesilla Public Safety Building was built in 1970 and served as Mesilla Town Hall until a new town government building opened in September 2005. Mesilla Fire Chief Kevin Hoban said when the old brick-and-steel Town Hall was built, it included only two bays to park fire trucks and without offices or facilities to house firefighters.
The aging building has been cited at least 21 times for building code violations, and some portions of the building have begun to separate.
Hoban has said the building "leaks like a sieve," and the separations now being fixed need to be finished before other improvements can be made.
When more extensive renovations begin, likely later this year, Barraza said the Fire Department and Marshal's Department, which includes five deputies and a marshal, will have to move out of the building while the renovations are being done. When that happens, administrative offices for the fire and marshal's departments will be moved to the Mesilla Community Center.

UFO filmed from my window, going to the tower of Baia Mare ,Romania.
Before I made the video I was on my bed.I've jumped to the window without figure out why, and this light was just passing.Ive taken my CX105 Sony camcorder and started to film. The object had no sound and not flickering lights, not any .It was a pure and white light, clean, like a star, but was on the earth's atmosphere.This is the stabilized and zoomed version of the video.I see that the video is with interruptions here.You can see it on the link below better and with the video capures:

Exclusive: "The Untold History of the United States" shakes up the traditional recounting of the last century, forcing Americans to rethink key assumptions, but director Oliver Stone and historian Peter Kuznick have not written a people's history, says Jim DiEugenio in part two of his review.
Jesus's Provocative Political Protest
Christians celebrate Jesus's birth and the immediate events around his crucifixion, but less attention is given to the clearest sign of his political activism, his overturning of the money-changing tables at the Temple in Jerusalem, the likeliest reason for his execution, as Mark Manolopoulos explains.
Keystone Pipeline's March to the Sea
Progress continues on the Keystone XL pipeline as it overcomes creative protests and legal challenges in East Texas. But opposition also is building with big-name environmentalists, like Robert Redford, urging the Obama administration to stand up against global warming, reports William Boardman.
Tea Party Extremism and the 'Cliff'
With a late-night vote, the U.S. House of Representatives approved a partial plan – negotiated by the Senate and the White House – to avert the "fiscal cliff," but most House Republicans voted no, with Tea Partiers continuing to flaunt their nihilistic extremism, as ex-CIA analyst Paul R. Pillar notes.
War Spending and the 'Fiscal Cliff'
The short-term danger of the "fiscal cliff" may be resolved either before or after the New Year, but the longer-term threat to the Republic is the never-ending demand from the Military-Industrial Complex for more and more money to finance war and empire, says ex-FBI agent Coleen Rowley.
How FBI Monitored Occupy Movement
The FBI and other federal agencies coordinated with banks and local authorities in reacting to the Occupy Movement, which was put in the category of a domestic terrorist threat despite the group's advocacy of nonviolence, Dennis J. Bernstein reports.
At Year's End, the 'News' Fails
The end of the year brings reflection on what happened in the past 12 months and what lies ahead. But these retrospectives usually offer no more context – and often less – than the thin gruel of news as the events played out, News Dissector Danny Schechter notes.
Bankster Justice Very Much Delayed
After years of tip-toeing around the too-big-to-fail banks – despite their key role in devastating the world's economy – the U.S. government has finally signaled a couple of fraud prosecutions. However, the effort is not only way too late, but way too little, argues Danny Schechter.
The Beat-Down of 'Public Servants'
For several decades, the American Right has heaped contempt on government employees as part of a strategy to delegitimize federal regulation of the private sector, contributing to such disasters as the Wall Street meltdown of 2008. But the beat-down of "public servants" goes on, says ex-CIA analyst Paul R. Pillar.
Slaughter of the Innocents
Americans are grieving over the 20 schoolchildren and six teachers mowed down in Newtown, Connecticut, by a deranged gunman with a semi-automatic assault rifle. But national grief may not be enough to overcome the cold calculations of profit and politics, says Danny Schechter.

Fibroblast growth factor 3 (FGF-3) belongs to the large FGF family which has at least 23 members. All FGF family members are heparin-binding growth factors with a core 120 amino acid (aa) FGF domain that allows for a common tertiary structure. FGFs are expressed during embryonic development and in restricted adult tissues. They act on cells of mesodermal and neuroectodermal origin to regulate diverse physiologic functions including angiogenesis, cell growth, pattern formation, embryonic development, metabolic regulation, cell migration, neurotrophic effects and tissue repair. Signaling receptors for FGFs are type I transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinases belonging to the Ig superfamily. Four distinct but related classes of FGF receptors, FGF R1, 2, 3, and 4, exist. Through alternative splicing, multiple isoforms for FGF R1, 2 and 3, with distinct ligand recognition profiles, are also generated.
The FGF-3 gene, originally designated int-2, was first identified as a proto-oncogene activated in mouse mammary tumors by proviral integration. Amplification of this gene has also been found frequently in human tumors. Human FGF-3 cDNA predicts a 239 aa precursor protein with a 17 aa signal peptide and a 222 aa secreted mature protein with one potential N-linked glycosylation site. Human and mouse FGF-3 share 88% aa sequence identity. The Xenopus and mammalian secreted FGF-3 are processed proteolytically at both the N- and C-terminus. FGF-3 binds with high-affinity to the IIIb isoforms of FGF R1 and FGF R2. FGF-3 also binds the IIIc isoform of FGF R2, but with lower affinity. FGF-3 has been implicated in the induction of inner ear development. Recent studies have suggested that FGF-3 and FGF-8 function synergistically in otic placode induction and during neuronal development to regulate dorsoventral axis formation. During development, the activities of FGF-3 and FGF-8 are regulated negatively by the sprouty family proteins and by sef (similar expression to FGF genes), a transmembrane protein that shares intracellular sequence similarities with the IL-17 receptor.

For Immaculee, the process was easier due to her experience as a French schoolteacher in the refugee camps; she already had a good grasp on grammar.
"I became very impressed with [Immaculee] the more I worked with her because she has so much talent and enthusiasm," Harrold said. "She has really done an amazing amount in her life with a lot of problems that she's faced and overcome."
When asked what keeps the family strong in the face of adversity, their responses echoed one another's: faith, prayer and their church community.
"My mom instilled in me that I can do anything if I put my mind to it," Lorina said. "Mom also told me that if I could live in a refugee camp, I can be strong and succeed at anything. When I get down, I pray and sing church songs."
When asked how it felt to become a U.S. citizen, Immaculee admitted to feeling both excited and scared. She said she knows that as a citizen, she has responsibilities, one of which is having the right to vote. She has already sought out friends from church to help her in the application process.
As for Lorina, she said she feels fantastic.
"Before, I felt like I was in the middle of nowhere as I was born in Tanzania in the refugee camp, but I was not a Tanzanian citizen," she said. "I didn't live in Congo like my parents had and now I can vote, get a passport and I have a home country."
As a result of their parents' naturalization, Anna and Noella Mpinga, who are students in the F-M School District, also became citizens. Raphael, Magdalen and Furaha, all over age 18, will work to become citizens in the future. Raphael currently attends SUNY Cobbleskill, Magdalene is a student at Morrisville and Furaha will begin Le Moyne College this fall. Lorina, a junior at Hobart/William Smith College, plans to study abroad in Avignon, France during her spring semester at school.

Product Information
Why We Love It:
For those cool weather days when you need a little extra insulation, the Ultra Violet Basic Dog Hoodie sweatshirt is a pretty purple pick! Your pooch will enjoy the coziness and freedom of movement in this dog sweatshirt. And the bold color makes quite a fashion statement! Check out the other available colors.
Note: If the dog has a stout build, select one size larger.
Important Sizing Note: The following measurements are the dimensions of the actual product, not of the pet they fit. After measuring your pet, make sure all measurements fit within the following dimensions (with a little room to spare in the chest and neck).X-Small
Love these hoodies and my dogs love their hoodies.
Beautiful color and well fitting . My dogs love it
My fur baby has cool clothes!! Not to mention almost one of these in every color :)
Great quality. Made and fit well
LOVE these hoodies!! Fit great and wash great, we have the red and just ordered two more colors! Thank you BaxterBoo for affordable, high quality items!
I think this may be our fifth hoodie from Zack & Zoey because it is just so darn cute! It keeps my little Pommie warm and snuggly; it fits perfectly at the waist, the neck, all over; love the cute little sleeves and drawstring at the neck; the little hood actually fits over her head - it's not just for show; the color is bright and beautiful. It even "pills" after several washings, just like our human hoodies do, giving it that "worn in" look. You may not like this aspect, but I don't think it detracts from the look of a garment that's, in my opinion, meant for "every day wear". FYI: Make sure you get the hoodie by Zack & Zoey - the other brand they offer was off in the fit, not nearly as cute and I had to return it.
All these cute hoodies will keep my Pom comfy in cooler weather.
Wonderfully made and loved the purple color. I could tell by looking at it that it was too small for my pup! That is the only reason I returned it....really wish they had in a larger size. Purple is my gray haired pup's color so always looking for sweaters, etc. in purple.
Nice and roomie - just like a hoodie should be!
My Darby is a bischon, Maltese mix and he just loves his hoodies. When I hold one up he immediately stands up for me to put it on. He has one in every color a male dog can wear and has worn them for two years now
My pup was a hit - just add beads and go!
Excellent quality for the price. Terrific color choices. It was hard to choose colors.
Very good value for this product.
This is the third hoodie I have purchased for my little Yorkie Terrier. The brutal winter temperatures made it important that she could stay warm. She loves to wear them and I love the look of them on her.
This is a high-quality hoodie. You can tell that a lot of care was put into the making of this product. The fabric is a nice thickness, the stitches are perfect and the medium size fits my 16.5-pound mini poodle mix just right. I was a bit concerned that the underside was close to his privates, but I've taken him potty with no problems. It rides up slightly when walking, but still looks great.
Really purple, really pretty! True to size.
Love this little Hoodie keeps her warm but not hot!!!
Really cute and well made. I like that there's a hole to put a leash through. It's a tad long for my pup (size M), which is surprising since he has a long torso. The chest area is a little snug, even though I measured him and he should have had ample room. He usually hides when I bring out anything except his collar, but he likes this.
This is my second hoodie to purchase for my dog. She LOVES it and doesn't want to ever take it off. And she looks really cute in it.
Our dog is a Spaniel/MinPin/Dachschund mix and loves these hoodies! The hood part is not the roomiest but he likes that it keeps him warm during the cooler months.
I would highly recommend this hoodie! What a great value! It is made well, very durable and soft. I have several hoodies for my dog but this one is a bit thicker, made with fleece material and is much warmer for chilly days. Sizing chart was accurate too! I will have to get another color for her!
Great item!! My dogs love these hoodies!!
My dog absolutely loves this hoodie!! She typically does not like to have clothing on, but she doesn't mind this one, curls up in it, and it keeps her warm when we go outside!
Too good a value to only have one. My Pit Mix loves the weight and warmth of this sweatshirt!
We Love the purple sweatshirt..awesome quality, and it keeps Brady toasty warm..
Chance loves his hoodie. It stretches nicely to fit him. Purchased in Xlarge, it could be a bit bigger. Other Xlarge clothes have fit him a little better.
Fits perfectly and she seems to love it!
Peanut loves her basic hoodie! The fleece lining keeps her warm on chilly days or fits nicely under her coat when it's very cold out. She looks adorable in it!
Great product. My little yorkie has had this on since I received it last week. I haven't washed it yet, and there is a little pill-ing since he's had it. But the fit is great, it has just a little warm fleece in the lining which makes it perfect for keeping him warm this time of year!
The hoodie feels very soft on the inside. It seems to be comfortable, too, as my dog has no problems cuddling up in this outfit. I have not yet found a use for the pocket, but find it very cute!
I bought this and a few other colors for my little dogs and they just love them! I love them too!
I love the purple color of this sweater!
AWESOME!! Great quality! :) Highly recommend.
I love the hoodie, it looks so cute on my Winnie, I took a picture with my phone and am going to attempt to send it to the website. Winnie is a shi-tzu/bijon mix and loves to wear outfits, so it's fun to buy for her.
Very good product the fit is great warm my dogs love all there baxter clothes!!
We love it! Thanks so much!
I love this hoodie! I also have a blue one for my other dog. They are very durable and easy to wash.
A-dog-able!! I did have to dry a bit for a better fit..super cute!
Love the style and the color! Fabric is soft, and my dog seems comfortable wearing his new Hoodie! Love it!
Great product!
Fits true to size and great quality! My fur baby loves it.
Fits perfect. Got a medium for a ten pound jack Russell. Great color
What can I say? Hoodie got here on time in the correct size. Fabric seems good quality and best of all it fits my pit. Easy to find cute clothes for toy breeds gets harder to find the larger the dog. Baxter Boo carries a great selection in a wide range of sizes.
This is so cute, I have a chubby shih-poo that I have trouble finding coats for as although she is rubenesque, she is short in length. This fits perfectly over the chest & belly area and is not to long.
I love this product. Very well constructed, have them for all of my girls! In multiple colors! It gets the Kati and Lissa Lu seal of approval!
This is one awesome sweater. My dogs love it.
My senior Weimaraner needs a little extra warmth and comfort. She loves her hoodie. When she gets cold she will pick it up and start demanding I put it on her. Easy to put on. Easy to care for.
I have three dogs and I've been "collecting" these Basic Dog Hoodies since I got my first one. The purple is such a great color for my little ladies! It's gorgeous and great quality. Make sure you don't order a size too big because I made that mistake and my dogs were falling out of them... I had to reorder everything in the size down. Don't want your furbabies to get hurt!
really like the quality of these hoodies and they don't break the bank to purchase them
Great product, good quality, super soft. Only issue is the sizing for my French bulldogs. Had to order up a size to fit their chest which makes the sweatshirt too long.
I love this Hoodie & the way it looks on my dog is too cute.
Love this hoodie. Great color choices. Medium fits great on my 15-16 pound Maltipoo.
We like the color assortment and have most of them. Obs. color runs when washing.

Fans recall what Paul McCartney — and the Beatles — meant to them
On June 18, 1942, a boy named James Paul McCartney was born in Liverpool, England. He'd grow up and meet other chaps — John Lennon, George Harrison, Ringo Starr — and together as the Beatles, they'd impact the lives of countless millions around the world, and of people living in Milwaukee, during the '60s and the decades that followed.
McCartney has been active ever since, in Wings, as a solo artist and on the road. On Tuesday, McCartney will take the stage at a sold-out Miller Park for his first Milwaukee concert since 2005, to perform in front of about 40,000 spectators. »Read Full Article(2)

Really dragging us down I
Citizens of Westmoreland County should be grateful that Democrat Tom Balya is no longer forming county policy, especially in light of his view of the recent IRS scandal. What's "dragging this society down," as stated in his letter about the IRS, "Just doing its job" (June 9 and TribLIVE.com), is complete disregard for and/or total lack of understanding of our Constitution.
We should applaud the IRS for targeting groups of a particular political persuasion? Mr. Balya, how did you react during the Nixon administration's disregard for the laws of our country? Or does the Constitution go out the window only during Democrat administrations?
Hypocritical? Partisan? Try reading up on the First, Fourth and 10th amendments. That pesky 10th Amendment — limiting the powers of the federal government to those delegated to it by the Constitution — seems to always get in the way of a committed progressive.
Citizens of Westmoreland County and of the USA, ask yourselves whether we need more politicians who espouse views similar to Balya's, or more who will uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America.

Two Views: Iranian Domestic Trends
Hamedani, Nina, Washington Report on Middle East Affairs
A JUNE 19 panel on "The Impact of Electoral Trends on Iran's Security Policies" was co-sponsored by the Middle East Program at the Woodrow Wilson Center and the Institute for National Strategic Studies of the National Defense University. Ali Ansari, author, professor and director at the Institute for Iranian Studies of the University of St. Andrews, and Suzanne Maloney, senior fellow on foreign policy at the Brookings Institution's Saban Center for Middle East Policy, discussed the implications of domestic trends in Iran. The conversation was moderated by Judith S. Yaphe, a senior research fellow and Middle East Project director at the Institute for National Strategic Studies.
In the last five years, Ansari pointed out, Iranians have witnessed drastic changes in the post-Reformist era, with a "democratizing trend reversing...and a return of charismatic authority" similar to ancient Iranian dynasties with imperialistic attitudes. Ansari described current President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as "among the most explicit in his exploitation of nationalist motives and ideology...which reflects very much the direction that society is going." Along with a return to charismatic political leadership in Iran, Ansari noted, there is a "de-politicization of the public." This is ironic, he pointed out, because Ahmadinejad painted himself as the "populist" candidate-which would necessitate public participation in politics; but participation must be kept low in order to guarantee conservative wins in Iran.
The fact that Iranian conservatives, or principalists, have not won a fair election since 2004, and that, according to Ansari, "the 2008 Majlis elections were among the most fraudulent...by Iranian standards," has caused them to "pander to nationalism" as a unifying social trend. Meanwhile, Ansari elaborated, "soft-power is something that Iran excels at," and the U.S.-led War on Terror has allowed the country to further cultivate its influence abroad. Thus, Ansari emphasized, domestic nationalism and Iran's foreign policy situation are linked.
For example, Iran's increasingly strategic position in the international community parallels its heightening domestic nationalistic determination for nuclear enrichment. The growing opinion of the country and its leaders that "the U.S. is a declining power" opens the doors for foreign involvement and strengthening Iranian nationalism. We have reached a point, Ansari concluded, where "you cannot ignore Iran," and the country will remain important for decades to come. …

- Picacho Middle School student critically injured after lightning strike; two others hospitalized as precaution
LAS CRUCES >> Lightning bolts galore decorated Picacho Middle School football players and students Tuesday as the school prepared for its opening football game, two weeks after a lightning strike during practice hospitalized three players and a coach.
All four have since returned to school, which welcomed them and the season opener with posters of well wishes, an abundance of blue and gold — the school colors — and, of course, lightning bolts painted on their cheeks.
Hunter Keffer, 13, who received the brunt of the Aug. 19 strike, sported a black lightning bolt on his cheek Tuesday, singed hair still on the top of his head. He sat out the game last night against Zia Middle School, but expects to play with his team in two or three weeks, he said.
Hunter stood with his teammates on the sidelines Tuesday, joking and goofing around like a typical teenager.
A second player, Demetrius Aguilera, 13, was the first to be released from the hospital and had recovered enough to play Tuesday. The name of the third student has not been released.
New protocol
Superintendent Stan Rounds announced an expanded lightning protocol for Las Cruces Public Schools at a board meeting Tuesday.
The previous standard asked coaches and other adults to bring students inside from athletics practices and games when lightning hit within six or seven miles of the field or court, Rounds said. Now, that radius is 10 miles.
The protocol now also applies to playgrounds, a first for the district.
Teachers, coaches and other adults can use lightning detectors provided at the Field of Dreams and each high school and middle school or they can download fee mobile applications like Weather Bug to monitor lightning. They can also use the "flash to bang" method, counting the time between a lightning sighting and a thunder clap.
About five seconds between the two means the lightning is one mile away.
The new protocol also encourages students and adults to immediately seek shelter, rather than stop to pick up equipment or other items as they head inside. Such delays may have played a role in the Aug. 19 strike, Rounds said.
The protocol might not have prevented the Aug. 19 strike and injuries as the last reported lightning sighting was about 11 miles away from Picacho, Rounds said.
"When the first strike happens, how do you prevent that?" He told the board. "Probably you don't. But you put policies in place."
He will meet with principals next week to explain the new standard.
The school board will not vote on the protocol, making it a formal policy. Instead, the standard will be a "expectation" that must be followed, Rounds said.
An official policy could leave LCPS with unexpected legal liability, he said.
"We're taking this very seriously," he said. "We want to be as preventative as we can, but we want a thoughtful approach to policy."

I am open to all sorts of experiences on here from meeting new and interesting people to something more serious and everything in between.
Hmmm, I have been told I am a funny mixture of political nerd, sports fan and giant flirt. Enjoy a good chat/debate, a wander through a gallery/museum, but also watching pretty much any type of sport or ridiculously bad tv. Love having a laugh, and if you can tell a good story, make me laugh, you will have me pretty charmed.
I work for a trade union and love it. And in a crazy moment have I have started studying again this semester. Let's see how my time management skills go!
I should say I am very open minded and i do like to try new things and be challenged... I'll get back to y'all soon with some more info about me...maybe.

SUNDAY, Oct. 31 Whattya know? Says here that Greg Haidl was arrested last night for causing a head-on automobile accident while driving with a blood-alcohol level of .02. Now that's not a lot—our production staff is on a mandated .06 buzz—but Greg isn't supposed to be nipping on anything as part of his conditions for bail. Haidl's lawyer says Greg is under a doctor's care for depression, and I shouldn't wonder. I'd be really depressed if cops kept showing up every time I was nailing a 16-year-old or crashing my car into someone. That would totally bum me out. Hey, here's a fun fact: the car Haidl wrecked was a 2005 Scion—I'm guessing a present from his folks. Now there's some tough love. Of course, tough love is what landed Greg in all this trouble.

They'll be checking people at the polls in Ohio—Ohio is the new Florida—asking questions, causing long lines and chaos. And you'll never guess which neighborhoods they'll be doing this in. Did you say upper-middle-class white neighborhoods? You'd be wrong. Get this: they're going to be harassing voters in African-American precincts. It's all part of a Republican effort to return to traditional firstname.lastname@example.com

In Face of Congressional and Stakeholder Objections, EPA to Suspend Chemical Reporting Program to Revise Flaws Rules
WASHINGTON, DC - The Obama administration yesterday announced plans to suspend a chemical reporting program under the Toxic Substances Control Act after serious concerns were raised about the agency's proposed changes to the program - changes that would have imposed significant new costs without a sensible benefit. Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Fred Upton (R-MI) and Environment and the Economy Subcommittee Chairman John Shimkus (R-IL) wrote a letter to the Office of Management and Budget earlier this year calling on the administration to withdraw the draft proposal because it fails to meet the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act and President Obama's Executive Order 13563.
"Today we see the consequences of this administration's rush to regulate. After significantly - and unnecessarily - expanding and complicating this program, the agency decided to suspend the next round of chemical reporting entirely while it sorts out the mess it has created," said Upton and Shimkus. "While there is a silver lining to be seen in the temporary program suspension to give time to improve the flawed proposal, the dark storm clouds of this administration's regulatory onslaught continue to loom. We hope this announcement signals that the president's promises of sensible and beneficial regulation are finally going to be met. Thus far, the evidence has been scarce."
BACKGROUND: The proposed update to the TSCA Inventory Update Reporting (IUR) regulations would impose new and unwarranted cost burdens on the U.S. economy with no added benefit. The rule, an expansion of the 2006 IUR, would increase the frequency of reporting and breadth of information required on the use and manufacture of certain chemicals, harshly affecting a wide spectrum of businesses across the economy. EPA has provided no justification for the added red tape, seemingly in direct violation of current regulatory standards. Both the Paperwork Reduction Act and Executive Order 13563 require agencies to justify their actions are necessary and beneficial.
The Subcommittee on Environment and the Economy is playing a leading role this year examining the economic costs of environmental regulations and holding federal agencies accountable to ensure they do not regulate too much too fast, but instead conduct meaningful analysis to ensure the benefits outweigh the costs of any new proposals.

(AP) PM: Canadian gold mine project set to be rejected
BUCHAREST, Romania
Romania's prime minister says a special parliamentary commission is set to reject a bill that would permit Europe's biggest open-cast gold mine.
Canada's Gabriel Resources has been waiting 14 years for approval for the controversial project, which would use cyanide to mine 314 tons of gold and 1,500 tons of silver in the town of Rosia Montana in northwestern Romania.
The government of Prime Minister Victor Ponta originally sent a bill to Parliament to approve the project, but changed its mind after weeks of protests over environment concerns and criticism that Romania would earn too little from the deal.
"The ruling coalition intends to reject the project," Ponta said Monday, adding the government supports foreign investment in its natural resources. The parliamentary commission is expected to vote Monday evening.

Savor the heady, earthy aroma and flavor of black truffles in two unique delicacies, an artisanal cheese from Italy and its natural partner tartufo, a pork salami filled with lush black summer truffles. The cheese and salumi are offered as a collection that includes pane carasatu, an artisan crispbread from Sardinia. Or enjoy the salami on its own in our set of three.
Bianco Sottobosco: A goat/cow's milk cheese made in small batches on a small, family-run farm in Piedmont, Italy. The cheese has an herbaceous, mild flavor and a creamy white paste flecked with truffles.
Truffle Salami: Aromatic Italian black summer truffles star in this salami made by an Italian chef-turned-Californian-charcutier who learned the craft from his mother while still a boy in the Old Country. Each link is made with nitrate- and nitrite-free all-natural pork from a local ranch.

The Hotel Boss on Course for Another Career High; Warwick Brindle Ran Newspapers in the UK and the United States before Conceiving and Then Creating Rockliffe Hall for Middlesbrough FC Chairman Steve Gibson. PETER McCUSKER Met Him at Their Pounds 50m Creation on the Outskirts of Darlington
Byline: PETER McCUSKER
IT'S certainly an interesting time to interview the former managing director of The Scotsman and Warwick Brindle pulls no punches when it comes to the News of the World phone hacking scandal.
"There is absolutely no way Rebekah Brooks would not have known what was going on," he argues. "Just imagine for a moment if she did not know, then the editorial staff must have thought she was a right patsy. That they thought so little of her they did not want to tell her. "Or, alternatively they would have thought they could get way with it on her watch. Either way that leaves her without much of a leg to stand on as an editor. So if that was the case, which I doubt it was, she was completely out of her depth."
Moving on to the wider picture he continued: "What's happening is horrendous. I have no idea what they thought they were doing and they've dropped everyone in it. Everyone seems to know it was going on."
In 1993 Brindle was appointed to one of the newspaper industry's top jobs, as managing director of The Scotsman, but that came to an end when the Barclay Brothers bought the Edinburgh-based title in 1995.
Brindle then accepted an opportunity to move to the United States at the request of former Scotsman, and indeed former Journal owners, the Thomson Group.
His newspaper journey had begun more than 20 years earlier when he secured a job in the circulation department at his home town newspaper the Burnley Star.
Earlier, on leaving college in Wolverhampton with an arts degree in 1972, he had launched his first business venture, a design and ceramics company with his wife Maureen and two other business partners.
This is where he says he learnt his first business lesson. "Two is difficult, three is a committee," he says. In 1988 he came to the North East to take over the role of deputy managing director at the Evening Chronicle, Journal and Sunday Sun in Newcastle, then owned by Thomson.
And the ensuing eight years saw him move in quick succession to Chester, Teesside and up to Scotland for the top job at the Scotsman.
He says his father was a key inspiration in his life, always encouraging him to achieve.
"My dad would always push me. He always wanted to know what would be my next step. He had run a family-owned textile business in Lancashire. The family sold it to a large competitor, which he joined and went on to be managing director of, in a sense he set the bar high."
And self-effacingly for such a high-achiever Brindle contends: "I always found the biggest challenge was being able to do the job when I was promoted to it. Before I got the job I used to think it was easy, until I started to do it!" On the future of newspapers there is a note of exasperation in his voice when he reflects on the latest dictat from Richard Desmond and his Express Group.
"They say new media landscape is about convergence of TV, newspapers, the internet and around-the-clock news. We were talking about that 25 years ago, it's hardly new.
"The media has to continue to diversify, but I cannot imagine a world without newspapers, although I doubt whether some of the smaller regional newspapers will be able to survive.
"The margins are still good in the newspaper industry. They were around 40% when I was in the industry and they're down to about 25% now."
He believes there may well be some fragmentation, with some of the larger newspaper groups possibly willing to listen to offers for some of their regional titles.
"The Trinity Mirrors, the Johnston Presses may well put them up for sale. Outside of the control of some of the larger companies then independent regionals will be happy to work with lower margins allowing them the opportunity to reinvest into their products."
On the current recession he says it's different to the previous ones he has experienced. …

Amanda Wilson was first introduced to the world of Yoga in her sixteenth summer on this planet. At this age she wasn't particularly health conscious, but was newly experimenting with ways to improve herself mentally as well as physically. In the arts district of Indianapolis, Amanda took a beginner's Hatha class from an Indian immigrant in his home. This class lit a small spark that slowly smoldered over the next ten years before igniting into a full-fledged practice. During those ten years she found herself returning to yoga when things got tough. Amanda took her first Ashtanga class when she moved to Columbus in 2004 and realized that she had found her practice. She joined the Yoga on High family as a practitioner in 2005, and then as a teacher trainee in 2008 - earning her 200hour certification in Ashtanga. Currently, she is in the 500 hour teacher training program.
Amanda has always been drawn to yoga due to its capacity to heal both the body and mind. In a world full of pain and chaos, the practice of Ashtanga remains balanced and peaceful. Her greatest reward as a teacher is to help others discover the healing powers of yoga that have so much helped her.
Amanda's teaching approach is based on a foundation of love, acceptance and openness to new experience. She hopes every student leaves class feeling better than when they came in! Yoga has helped Amanda survive depression and anxiety as well as maintain healthy weight loss. It has also helped support her training in Muay Thai and her full time work as a Licensed Social Worker. Amanda lives in Clintonville with one snake, two dogs and a husband.

Comments about Health Mark Pro Inversion Chair:
I had a friend help me assemble my chair, and I've used it twice today. I can sense relief in the pressure on the low back...instructions were a little difficult to follow. One step that seemed out of order was the covers for the side plates...had to take the handles off at the end of assembly to put the covers on...but it's a small thing....I think I'm going to get a lot of good use from the chair.
