APP OF THE DAY: Super Stickman Golf review (Android & iOS)
There are casual games and there are casual games. Today's App of the Day is one of the latter, or perhaps the former, depending on how you read that sentence. Essentially, while some of these kinds of downloads are all about swiping you finger so that object A goes into object B, this one is a little better put together, more enjoyable and will having a lasting appeal beyond 24 hours. It'll also help if you like a spot of golf.
Super Stickman Golf
- Platform
- Android & iOS
- Price
- Free/69p
- Where
- Market/iTunes
Super Stickman Golf is a bit of a giveaway from the name of the game. It's based on the golf. You get 9 holes per course, there's no need to switch clubs and you choose the direction and power of the strike with on-screen buttons and that age old system of stopping a swingometer at the right point. There are more courses than we've got through so far with bags in each level of difficultly from beginner to expert. They're very much on the arcade side and each is themed with things like ice, the moon and even a disco level.
It's Stickman because your little avatar is a stickman and it's Super because you can get power-ups to help you along the way. You unlock them as you go. The most useful of all has to be the Mulligan which allows you to retake a shot without losing a stroke. The Sticky Ball is also pretty amusing but we'll leave you to discover the joys of that one on your own.
There are all the things you'd expect in a game of golf - bunkers, water hazards and that kind of jazz - as well as achievements to unlock, along with more courses too. In all, it's a good bit of amusement with the 9 hole length making it as snackable a game as these casuals need to be. Download it now. You won't regret it.

Public Attitudes and Knowledge About HIV/AIDS in Georgia
Georgia has the fifth highest number of HIV/AIDS diagnoses in the country. While the impact is felt across the state, three counties in Atlanta – Fulton, DeKalb and Clayton – have the highest prevalence rates (per 100,000 people) in the state. As is the case nationally, Black residents have been most severely and disproportionately affected, accounting for two thirds (67%) of new diagnoses in Georgia in 2013.
To better understand the views and experiences of Georgians on HIV/AIDS, the Kaiser Family Foundation conducted a representative survey of 556 adults residing in Georgia in the summer of 2015. The survey was conducted as part of a public information partnership with the Georgia Department of Public Health.
Implementation of the ACA for People with HIV
The Affordable Care Act's (ACA) major coverage reforms have created new pathways to insurance coverage for millions of Americans, including those with HIV. How have these changes affected coverage and access to care for people with HIV? Who has gained new coverage and who has been left out? On May 4 at 9:30 a.m. ET, the Kaiser Family Foundation held a policy briefing to discuss these questions with a panel of experts.
The ACA and People with HIV: Video Profiles from the Field
"The ACA and People with HIV: Profiles from the Field" video series features people with HIV sharing their experiences with health coverage in the ACA era, including those living in the "coverage gap" as well as those who have gained insurance coverage. The videos highlight the role the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program continues to play in the lives of people with HIV.
Marketplace Health Plan Options for People with HIV Under the ACA: An approach to more comprehensive cost assessment
Based on an analysis of 300 possible scenarios, this brief estimates costs HIV positive individuals might expect to face when enrolled in marketplace health plans and describes the characteristics of plans that might offer the greatest value.
New Analysis Finds Marketplace Plans with Lowest Premiums Are Often Not the Most Cost-Effective Option for People with HIV
Among 300 Enrollment Options Examined, an HIV Positive Enrollee Could Save $4,000 on Average by Assessing a Fuller Range of Costs A new Kaiser Family Foundation analysis finds that people living with HIV could benefit from looking beyond premium costs when shopping for a health plan in the marketplace –…
The ACA and People with HIV: An Update
This report provides a second look at how the Affordable Care Act (ACA) is impacting people with HIV two years into these new coverage opportunities, based on focus groups conducted with HIV positive individuals from five states in early 2016, after the third round of open enrollment. Groups were conducted with HIV positive individuals who gained insurance coverage – through either the Marketplaces or Medicaid expansion- in California and New York and with those who remained uninsured, largely because they fell into the coverage gap, in Florida, Georgia, and Texas.

Diner Moving To Wyoming, Literally
If you want to stop into the Moondance Diner for a late-night burger and shake, you're going to have to travel awful far: Wyoming. [Instead of being demolished], as was originally reported, the [Soho diner](http://www.nysun.com/article/59553) with the iconic, revolving crescent-shaped sign is being transported—chrome walls, barrel-roof ceiling, stools and all—to the small town of La Barge—where it will become the only restaurant in town. The diner's new owners, Vincent and Cheryl Pierce, plan to drive a semi-tractor-trailer to New York City, where the structure will be mounted and then physically relocated to the small town with an estimated population of about 600, two hours south of Jackson Hole and three hours northeast of Salt Lake City.
And while residents of La Barge seem [thrilled to add a novel offering] to their one-police-man, two-gas-station-town, many Soho residents are less pleased. The executive director of the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation told the Sun that the move was part of a "disconcerting trend": "It's an indication that the real estate market in New York, and particularly in Manhattan, is so superheated that anything that doesn't dedicate itself to the super luxury market does not seem to be able to survive." The diner served its last meal on July 1, and its former site on Sixth Avenue will now be developed into luxury residences by everyone's favorite development company, Extell.
And in case you're wondering why the diner's name sounds so familiar, here's a little [Moondance trivia]: Monica Gellar on "Friends" worked at a 50s-themed restaurant of its namesake, and in the first Spider-Man movie, Mary Jane (a.k.a. Kirsten Dunst) is also a waitress at the former icon.

Greenfield in the news
Greenfield's Spring Cleanup Day is scheduled Saturday, May 7 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Arrangements have been made with Community Sanitation of Ohio to place a dumpster near the railroad across from the Waddell Company on S. Washington St., according to City Manager Ron Coffey.
"Everyone bringing trash is asked to bring some form of identification, such as a water bill, that shows their residence to be in Greenfield," Coffey said. "The basic service is free to residents, but there will be an additional charge for tires and certain other materials." Large furniture and appliances will be accepted, as will tree and shrub trimmings (brush must be bound and tied). Community Sanitation does charge a fee for certain items such as paint and tires.
A few items of note: Paint can fee is $1 per can. There is no charge if paint is poured out onto cardboard or paper and dried. Fees for tires: Regular tires $5 each; with rim $10; regular truck tires $10 each; with rim $15. Electronics: Televisions and computer items will be accepted. Refrigerators and air conditioning units WILL NOT be accepted due to regulations concerning Freon and other refrigerant gasses.
"All residents of the village are encouraged to discard their trash regularly through a weekly pickup service," Coffey pointed out. "Our cleanup days are designed to help residents deal with those larger items. This is a great opportunity to clean out sheds and garages and help beautify our community," Coffey said. "We hope to see a lot of cleanup activity around Greenfield that day."
For senior citizens and residents with disabilities who may need some help, members of the Greenfield public works staff will be on duty to pick up items at the curb where advance arrangements have been made. Information is needed by 4 p.m. Friday, May 6, and arrangements can be made by contacting Holly Ellinger at 981-3500.

Greenfield Village Council encourages all citizens to support opportunities for people with developmental disabilities, including education, employment, housing and recreational opportunities. Pictured L-R are Council Chairperson Betty Jackman, Sue Kennedy, Courtney Adams and Nathan Boatman.
Veteran parking sign donated
The Village of Greenfield was presented with a handicapped veteran parking sign on February 17 by Support Our Troops of Highland County (SOTOHC) as part of the group's ongoing efforts across the county.
Stephanie Roland with SOTOHC made the presentation. The signs have also been presented to the Highland County Board of Commissioners, Hillsboro City Council, and Leesburg Village Council.
In 2015 SOTOHC brought a Vietnam traveling tribute to Liberty Park in Hillsboro. Roland explained that funds left over from the community's generous donations allowed for the purchase of 10 special handicapped veteran parking signs. She said the signs are legal by state standards.
Council members praised the idea of designated parking for handicapped veterans, and consideration is being given as to where the sign will be located.
Several area residents attended the Oct. 1 meeting in council chambers with Public Utilities Commission of Ohio representative Luka Papalko explaining how the PUCO is involved in protecting citizens, regulating utility prices, and acting as a neutral arbiter on utility matters. He answered several questions related to electric and natural gas aggregation, and urged citizens to visit the website www.energychoice.ohio.gov when comparing rate offers from the various providers. Luka indicated he would be happy to meet with clubs and organizations in the area.
PUCO rep meets with public
A representative of the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) visited Greenfield Oct. 1, 2015 to discuss the services provided by the agency.
The program took place in Greenfield Council Chambers, 300 Jefferson St. PUCO representative Luka Papalko discussed the ways PUCO works for the benefit of Ohio residents and answer questions from the public on such matters as electric and natural gas aggregation and other issues relating to utility bills and services.
The Public Utilities Commission of Ohio affects every household in Ohio. That is because the PUCO regulates providers of all kinds of utility services, including electric and natural gas companies, local and long distance telephone companies, water and wastewater companies and rail and trucking companies. The PUCO is charged with ensuring that Ohioans have access to adequate, safe and reliable public utility services at a fair price, while also facilitating competitive utility choices within the state.
As a neutral arbiter between Ohio's consumers and utilities, the PUCO works each and every day to find a working balance for the state's utility structure by maintaining innovative, forward-focused regulation that helps to ensure that Ohio and its economy continue to succeed and grow.
The impact of the PUCO's work can be seen throughout any Ohioan's day. From the electricity used to make your morning cup of coffee to the natural gas being used to heat your home, it is the PUCO that carries the responsibility of ensuring that these utility services meet Ohio's needs.
The PUCO staff consists of professional engineers, economists, attorneys, auditors, investigators and highly knowledgeable industry experts who are dedicated to assisting the Commission in meeting its goals and serving the public.
Not only does the PUCO help to ensure safe and reliable utility service for the rising needs of Ohioans, but it also encourages those consumers to become more engaged and better informed in utility related matters.
In 2014, more than 650 presentations were given to the public on matters ranging from electric and natural gas choice in Ohio to transportation safety. Presentations like these, as well as many others, are available to all Ohioans upon request and are provided by PUCO staff.
Additionally, PUCO staff, as well as commissioners, regularly give testimony before the Ohio General Assembly, U.S. Congress and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) on behalf of Ohioans.
Ohioans can also stay engaged with the Commission by contacting the PUCO Call Center, which receives calls from tens of thousands of consumers each year. In fact, in 2014 the call center received 76,402 calls and initiated 13,421 investigations, saving Ohio consumers $683,701.
Roosa, McCullough present plaque
Members of the McClain High School class of 1955 presented a special commemorative plaque to the Village of Greenfield and Greenfield Exempted Village Schools on Sept. 4, 2015 at City Hall.
Larry and Linda Roosa of Newport, TN and Tom and Marjorie McCullough of Greenfield made the presentation to Greenfield City Manager Ron Coffey, Village Council Chair Betty Jackman and McClain High School Principal Jason Potts, just as the Edward Lee McClain High School centennial celebration weekend was beginning.
Edward Lee McClain was the founder of the E.L. McClain Manufacturing Co. and became a multi-millionaire. As a gift to the community, "promising the most good to the greatest number for the longest time," McClain and his wife, Lulu, gave the people of Greenfield a gift that came to be known as Edward Lee McClain High School. It was dedicated in September 1915.
"Greenfield and McClain High School have been very good to us, and we wanted to give something back," Larry Roosa said as he presented the plaque.
In addition to the plaque, Mr. Roosa also donated $1,000 to the school district for its Art Restoration Fund. Mr. Potts accepted the check on behalf of the school and thanked Mr. Roosa for the donation.
The commemorative plaque reads:
"Presented to the townspeople of Greenfield in honor of the Centennial of Edward Lee McClain High School. The townspeople of Greenfield are honored and proud to celebrate the centennial of our beloved Edward Lee McClain High School.
"A focal point of community pride for generations, the school was the gift of textile manufacturer Edward Lee McClain to his hometown. His wife, Lulu, was mostly responsible for the majestic beauty seen throughout the school.
"Designed by nationally prominent architect William B. Ittner, the McClains' further generosity may be seen in the extravagant beauty of sculpture work, murals, paintings and other works of art throughout the school.
"Historically acclaimed Edward Lee McClain High School stands majestically proud today, just as she did in 1915. We, the townspeople, are proud this is her home.
"Presented this fifth day of September 2015 by Larry and Linda Roosa and Tom and Marjorie McCullough, 1955 graduates of Edward Lee McClain High School, to Jason Potts, Edward Lee McClain High School Principal."
With a headline "The little town that could: Short rail line in Ohio shows the way" Greenfield finds itself in the spotlight as an Editor's Pick story on the Al Jazeera America website. Journalist Kevin Williams of Middletown wrote the piece after interviewing Greenfield leaders past and present including David T. Daniels, Betty Bishop and Ron Coffey to unfold the story of how Greenfield came to own a short line railroad in the first place, and what it means to our region.

Fishing Derby honors memory of Unger
The 14th annual Daryle C. Unger & Peanut Memorial Kids Fishing Derby took place Saturday, June 6 at Mitchell Park, honoring the memory of a longtime community servant who performed many good deeds on behalf of the youth of the Greenfield area. Jim Jones and a team of volunteers have been putting on the fishing derbies for 14 years, raising thousands of dollars through donations, auctions and other activities to stock the pond at Mitchell Park and purchase hundreds of prizes for the children that participate. Some photos from the event are shown on this page.
Greening Greater Greenfield (G3), an organization that does many good works around the community, has donated and installed a new sign at the entrance to Felson Park.
The attractive, rustic sign was hand-crafted by G3 member Sam Bowers in the style of signs often seen at state parks and points the way to Felson Park, which features a bike and walking trail. Sam and his son David put up the new sign on April 16.
"The new sign is just the latest benefit to our community by the G3 organization," said City Manager Ron Coffey. "Last year Greening Greater Greenfield donated trees that were planted downtown, and G3 continues to sponsor workshops and festivals throughout the year, including Blues, Brews & Stews, gardening classes and the Greenfield Oktoberfest."
Felson Park is also the location of the popular Paddle on Paint Creekfest scheduled by G3 on Sunday, May 17 along the banks of Paint Creek. Many kayakers and canoeists are expected to converge on Greenfield that day, and there will be food, entertainment and displays by various organizations at Felson Park from noon to 6 p.m.
Two local students, Jase Allison, son of Jason and Janell Allison, and Braden Wright, son of Tytus and Shawna Wright, successfully applied for a Disney Friends for Change grant and used the $500 award to help clean up John Mitchell Memorial Park in Greenfield on Saturday, April 18.
Approximately 25 other youths and adults helped in the project by raking leaves, picking up trash, repairing benches, planting flowers and painting, among other activities. The volunteers were treated to lunch by adults in the group.
Jase and Braden attended the April 15 meeting of Greenfield Village Council and discussed their plans to make improvements at the park. They invited others from the community to join in the effort, and said they would be accepting baseball equipment donations in an effort to outfit kids who want to play, but don't have the resources to do so.
Members of council Betty Jackman, Bob Bergstrom, Brenda Losey, Chris Borreson and Bill Redenbaugh, along with City Manager Ron Coffey, applauded the youngsters for their efforts.
Disney Friends for Change Grants offer young change-makers $500 to gather their friends and turn their creative ideas to help their communities into projects taking place on or around Global Youth Service Day, April 17-19, 2015.
The photos that accompany this article were taken on April 18 at Mitchell Park and show the volunteers in some of their efforts to improve the park.

Emergency siren is operational
The Village of Greenfield finalized the installation of its tornado siren on Tuesday, June 17, 2014 with successful diagnostic testing, according to Police Chief Tim Hester.
"The siren did exactly what it is designed to do," Chief Hester commented. "I could hear it loud and clear downtown while outside. The sound is not supposed to penetrate inside the walls of homes and buildings. It is to warn those who are outdoors to seek shelter inside."
The official policy of the Village of Greenfield for use and testing of the siren is provided below:
The Village of Greenfield will activate the outdoor warning siren when any of the following severe weather conditions exists:

PUCO offers information on energy choices
With a number of legislative changes in the electric utility industry in Ohio over the past 14 years, the PUCO recognizes the need to educate consumers on the retail competition of utility services. With this recognition the PUCO created the Office of Retail Competition (ORC) in July of 2012. The mission of the Office of Retail Competition is to improve awareness, trust and understanding of market-based utility service in Ohio.

Arbor Day observed April 24
Approximately 170 first graders in the Greenfield Exempted Village School District were given redbud seedlings as part of Greenfield's Arbor Day Observance on April 24, and trees were planted at two nursing home sin Greenfield as well.
Staff members and residents of Edgewood Manor, 850 Nellie St., and Hearth & Care, 238 S. Washington St., commemorated Arbor Day by planting trees on their properties as Greenfield Council Chair Betty Jackman and City Manager Ron Coffey looked on.
Ms. Jackman, who is also a member of the Tree Commission, Greenfield staff member Holly Ellinger and Coffey visited first graders at Buckskin, Rainsboro and Greenfield Elementary Schools to give the students redbud seedlings and talk about the importance of trees, which provide many benefits and help beautify the community. Trees are a renewable resource and provide food and shelter for many types of wildlife. Trees give off oxygen, produce tasty fruit and a cooling shade canopy.
The history of Arbor Day dates to April 1872 in Nebraska City, NE when J. Sterling Morton encouraged the planting of trees. As a result, approximately a million trees were planted in Nebraska. In 1907, President Theodore Roosevelt issued an Arbor Day proclamation to the school children of the United States, pointing out the importance of trees and encouraging the teaching of forestry.

Greenfield gets Tree City USA designation
The village of Greenfield was recognized on April 17, 2015 as a Tree City USA community, fulfilling a dream that had been several years in the making.
The Greenfield Tree Commission was established in 2012 with one goal being for Greenfield to achieve Tree City USA status. At the time, Betty Bishop was city manager of Greenfield, and she was able to accompany Greenfield Tree Commission members Patsy Smith and Kandace Wilson and current City Manager Ron Coffey to Wyoming, Ohio for the celebration. Greenfield and Vandalia were the two newest towns to be recognized as Tree City USA communities.
To become a Tree City community, Greenfield had to meet requirements that included tree-related expenditures of at least $2 per capita, an active tree commission, an official observance of Arbor Day, and other activities. Other members of the Tree Commission include Betty Jackman, Larry Hayes and Phil Clyburn.
Coffey expressed thanks to the Tree Commission members for the successful efforts at getting the Tree City USA designation. He recognized Ron Dudley, former chairman of the Tree Commission, for his leadership over the past several years and his assistance in filing the application last December. Coffey and the Tree Commission also expressed their appreciation to Wendi Van Buren, urban forester for the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, for her ongoing assistance and valuable advice.
Signs proclaiming Greenfield's Tree City status will be put up at several entrances to the community.
Citizens passing by the Greenfield rail line that extends from Greenfield to Midland may have done a double-take Oct. 19, 2014 when they noticed miniature railcars on the tracks. These unique vehicles belong to members of the North American Railcar Operators Association (NARCOA) and are a part of the rich history of the railroading tradition.
Historically, miniature railcars were used for maintenance of way on railroads across the nation. These small cars, sometimes called "Speeders," were less expensive to operate than a full-blown locomotive, and were useful for inspecting many miles of track for defects.
With the passage of time, these miniature railcars have been phased out by the railroads in favor of hi-rail vehicles with retractable guide wheels that can operate on road or rail.
NARCOA was organized in the mid-1980s by rail fans who bought the scrap speeders and began having excursions on scenic stretches of rail all over the country. Around 2009 or 2010 they discovered the beautiful run between Greenfield and Midland and requested permission to have an excursion on the tracks owned by the city of Greenfield. The response has been very positive, and the folks from NARCOA have made a point of visiting each year since.
After motoring to Midland and turning around, the group of enthusiasts stopped at New Vienna for lunch and then returned to Greenfield to put their speeders back on trailers and return home to places in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Indiana and Illinois.
There was even a Mini Cooper automobile outfitted with guide wheels on the excursion. It had once been used to deliver mail in Canada -- again much more economical than sending a full-sized train.
According to the NARCOA website, running a speeder costs considerably less than boating or golfing, although some think it's a hot, noisy and smelly hobby! Some members also own and operate more modern hi-rail vehicles.
All the members of the Ohio Valley Railcars and NARCOA group seemed pleased with result of their efforts. City Manager Ron Coffey welcomed them on behalf of Greenfield and invited the railroading enthusiasts to return in the future.
The miniature railcars did not return in 2015 due to the ongoing Greenfield Rail Line Improvement Project, but leadership has indicated the group would like to return in 2016.

Close to Denny's restaurant.
Nice pool area. The hotel is old but is in good repair. The staff is friendly and helpful. Denny's Diner and Rocky's Bar is part of hotel.
Next to Freeway but rooms away from freeway side were quiet.
Staff was VERY friendly. Room was clean. Bed was comfortable. Price was right. We were in the second building across the parking lot and had a kitchen. It was older but clean. We had a flat screen TV. And.. the gym has a SAUNA! That was awesome!
Bead was very comfortable, breakfast with lots of options
I prefer inside pool specially in that area were it can get very windy.
Room was very nice and comfortable.
Customer service lacked a bit of professionalism at the front desk. Blood stains and hair on towels. Only 1 out of three towels were properly clean. Windows need better sound proofing. Trains go through el centro all night long!
Accessibility in the little city.
1- Wireless didn't always work. 2- Bathrooms weren't very clean and they don't replace shampoos, soaps, etc... 3- Carpet in King Suites not very clean.
It's easy to access. It's on a main thoroughfair
My bed had debris under the covers. I opened the bedding in the dark and didn't notice until mornoing that the bed was filthy.
Breakfast very good with lots of choices. AC worked perfectly!
it was clean, friendly customer service
The air conditioner in our room smelled weird
The suite-style rooms are great, although probably a little big for one person for one night. If I was staying longer I would have really loved having a suite. Comfortable room. Friendly staff. Clean.
Breakfast was sub-par, although I usually never expect much (if any at all). Elevator was really slow - not a big deal, but most of the time the stairs were faster for me.
Very roomy suite with all of the amenities.
The rooms were very clean and comfortable! Front desk people were very nice and cordial!!
Found nothing bad!
Right off the highway.
Very old in appearance and furnishings. TV had a broken speaker. Light bulbs were missing. Sheets were stained. Everything needs major updating.
good local, safe no locals wandering around.
Super friendly, and the rooms are clean and very cozy. I only stayed one night but kind of wanted to stay longer!
The price
Paper thin walls. Shower didn't work and was never fixed as promised and we were offered nothing for not being able to shower. Staff lied saying there were no other rooms to shower in. Breakfast area was locked and had to get staff to let me in
stained towels,false advertisment of rooms ,run down appliance, broken sinks,dirty showers, stained mattresses, dead bugs on carpet german roaches, bad manager and people skills.
Fast check in. Clean room.
There was some police activity that prevented us from getting back to our room for a few hours at night.
For the price it's a great value. It's clean, comfortable, and the staff is nice. This isn't a luxury hotel but it's perfect if you want a comfortable and affordable location on a budget.
The staff seemed nice, mom and pop feel to it.
Hookers, pimps, and all of the above. I walked down the street for some food, and I was harrased 2 times from the locals. There was doors slamimg, cars with loud music, not a place for a family with kids.
It was a very marginal inn even considering the price
everything was old and worn out

"The whole process of ordering save the dates was easy! This design worked perfectly for what we needed and arrived early! I can't wait to share it with all of our family and friends!"
"The layout is absolutely beautuful! & the back is my favorite!! The only thing I would say, maybe look into the matte paper... The card is a little flimsy...but overall, I'm happy!"
"The colors (Reef) were bright, the lettering was gorgeous, and the photo we picked out was centered right where we wanted it. The material is on durable paper. Everything about this Save the Date card was done with perfection and detail. I love it, my fiance loves it, and my guests love it as well. The majority of our guests have complimented our selection saying how stunning and graceful it looks and resembles who we are. I couldn't be more happier. Can't wait to send our Invites from the same product."
"I am so in LOVE with our cards! The ease of working with your team made this project so much more exciting. You all were able to customize my project as I requested without any problems!! The printing looks beautiful and full of color! The shipping was fast and came before I expected. I can't wait to send them out! I will definitely be looking at your team to create my wedding invitations!! Keep up the great work!"
"We just received our cards yesterday. We wanted something simple, elegant, and functional--these fit the criteria! Love, love, love them and can't wait to send them out to friends and family. We chose the coral color and it's a pretty true coral. The paper quality is great as well."

Proos co-sponsors 'Patriot Week' legislationPublished 6:19pm Friday, September 9, 2011
The Michigan Senate on Wednesday approved a resolution co-sponsored by Sen. John Proos to designate the week of Sept. 11-17 as "Patriot Week."
"I support this initiative to set aside a week to salute the courage, dedication and service of our firefighters, police officers and brave soldiers who protect our southwest Michigan communities and the entire nation," said Proos R-St. Joseph. "During this time, we will also remember those Americans who were lost on Sept. 11, 2011."
The Senate also approved Senate Bill 282 in May that would designate seven days every year as Patriot Week, running from Sept. 11 to Constitution Day — the anniversary of the signing of the U.S. Constitution on Sept. 17, 1787.
"I encourage all citizens, schools and other organizations to commemorate the occasion and celebrate the American spirit," Proos said. "It is that spirit that brought us together as neighbors on Sept. 12, made us forget our differences and reminded us that we are all Americans first."
Proos issued the following statement regarding the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks:
"As we observe the 10th anniversary of the attacks of Sept. 11, Americans should recall that when confronted with unimaginable tragedy, we as Americans rose to meet that challenge. The events of Sept. 11, 2011 made us forget our differences and reminded us that we are all Americans first.
"Just as the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor united the Greatest Generation, we came together as neighbors in support of one another. In that spirit of unity, let us remember those who died, and let us commend those who risked everything to save others on that tragic day as well as those who protect us against harm each and every day.
"This year, as a symbol of solidarity and tribute, let us fly our American flags up main streets and down back roads across southwest Michigan. Let us talk to our neighbors with the same spirit of unity that Sept. 12 brought to our nation.
"I salute the courage, dedication and service of our firefighters, police officers and brave soldiers who protect our southwest Michigan communities; I remember those who were lost on September 11, 2011, and it is in their honor that we must never lose the American spirit or our dedication to preserving and protecting our way of life."
With the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks this weekend, Proos urged area residents to take the necessary steps to be prepared in the event of an emergency.
"The aftermath of 9-11 illustrated the importance of our roles in preparing our families and communities for all types of emergency situations," said Proos. "I encourage all southwest Michigan families to take a few simple steps to be ready if disaster strikes. This begins with developing a family plan and preparing a supply kit with essentials for survival without assistance.
"As we saw on Sept. 11, 2001, being prepared with a plan of action can help families navigate through the chaos of a disaster," he said. "Once you have a plan in place, I urge you to practice it so every family member understands where to go, what to do and how to contact the rest of the family in case of an emergency."
According to the Emergency Management and Homeland Security Division (EMHSD) of the Michigan State Police, being ready can be as simple as following the four steps to preparedness:
• Find out what emergencies may impact your community;
• Develop a plan for what to do during an emergency;
• Practice and maintain your plan so everyone knows what to do; and
• Create an emergency kit with essential items, such as food, water and medications.
For more information on Preparedness Month initiatives and simple steps to prepare, visit www.michigan.gov/michiganprepares or the EMHSD website at www.michigan.gov/emhsd.
Free emergency preparedness information and resources for developing an emergency plan and kit are also available at www.ready.gov or by calling toll-free (800) BE-READY.

Melges 32 World Championship preview - Record number of entries
by Joy Dunigan on 18 Sep 2012
Melges 32 World Championship 2012 Guido Trombetta
Melges 32 World Championship 2012, hosted by New York Yacht Club, is due to start in less than two weeks. Teams from around the world are beginning to trickle into stunning Newport, Rhode Island. A record-breaking 34 entrants are preparing for the upcoming week that will include a rigorous six days of boat and sail measurement, crew weigh-in, practice and event registration.
Jason Carroll's Argo with tactician Cameron Appleton, is one of the hottest North American based teams on the 2012 International Circuit. Team Argo has spent nearly two years sailing together with the same roster and look forward to the most challenging competition they've faced yet.
'There are many strong teams that will all be vying for the top spots, and we hope to be among them.' says Carroll. 'I'm really proud of my team for working as hard as they all have this year to continue to improve. We look forward to testing our mettle against some of the world's best sailors as well as sharing a great week with friends from around the globe.'
In late July, Carroll won his second consecutive U.S. National Championship title, the first owner to ever do so. Team Argo also won the Porto Cervo edition of the 2012 Audi Sailing Series.
'The opportunity to compete for a World Championship title is a dream.' says an eager-to- compete Ryan DeVos, helmsman aboard Volpe with tactician Ed Baird. 'I am honored to be a part of what I know will be a great event, not to mention being able to sail it with my dad. I'm ready. Our team is ready.'
DeVos, 22, is one of the two youngest helmsmen racing at Worlds. The other is his twenty-year old cousin Dalton, steering Delta with Jonathan McKee on tactics.
This may be Ryan's first World Championship, but he has proven on more than one occasion that he is perfectly capable of winning a trophy. In July of 2010, he won the National Championship becoming the youngest person to win a major international Melges 32 event. In 2011, Ryan won the North Americans and just this past April, won the prestigious East Coast Championship in West Palm Beach, ousting Carroll in the tiebreaker. He finished second to Carroll at the 2012 Nationals, and currently leads the USA Sailing Series Circuit Ranking by two points.
Several other boats have a real shot at winning Worlds including 2012 Key West Race Week Champion and Boat of the Week John Kilroy on Samba Pa Ti with Paul Goodison as tactician, Gold Cup Champion Steve Howe's Warpath with Morgan Larson on tactics, and Miami winner Alec Cutler's Hedgehog returns with tactician Richard Clarke. 2009 National Champion Andy Lovell on Rougarou with tactician Steve Benjamin will race after an almost two-year hiatus. Former World Champion (2009) Pieter Taselaar on Bliksem with Nick Thompson as tactician cannot be ruled out and last, but certainly not least is the defender - 2011 World Champion William Douglass on Goombay Smash.
'The Melges 32 Class is fielding it's most competitive Worlds so far with a deep group of competitors.' says Douglass. 'The level in this class has certainly been taken up a notch. There are at least ten boats that have a viable chance to win. We believe we are well prepared and look forward to doing all we can to retain the trophy. It's obvious that several teams have their sights on it. Should be a really great regatta.'
Five full days of official World Championship racing is slated to begin on Tuesday, September 25 ending on Saturday, September 29.
The World Championship is the final act of the 2012 USA Sailing Series Circuit.

The Christchurch and Canterbury economy continues to perform above national trends, but wages and firm profitability are still lagging behind, the latest Canterbury Development Corporation report shows.
A booming construction sector, with building activity increasing by over 25 per cent in Canterbury over the last quarter, keeps driving Christchurch and Canterbury's economic growth.
The unemployment rate is low and labour participation high in both Canterbury and Christchurch, the report showed.
However, economic growth had not translated into significant workers' salary rises.
Weekly earnings in Canterbury, as measured in the New Zealand Employment and Earnings survey, were up 0.7 per cent in the June quarter compared to the March quarter, at $902 up from $895.
Canterbury's average weekly earnings were still $32 lower than national rates.
CDC chief executive Tom Hooper said he expected workers' wages to increase slowly in the coming months.
"Wages tend to lag growth, so we do expect to see workers' salaries increase, especially with unemployment being so low in the region and also falling nationally."
There was greater competition for skills, which should lead to wage increases throughout the year, he said.
Economic growth did not seem to translate into increased profitability for businesses.
More South Island firms reported decreased profitability than increased over the June quarter, with a net 12 per cent of firms reporting their profitability to have fallen, according to New Zealand Institute of Economic Research data.
This was a further fall from the previous period, and a poorer performance compared to the rest of the country where better and worse performance were closer to balancing out.
Firms were also less optimistic about the three months ahead, with a net 2 per cent expecting their profitability to improve, down from 13 per cent the previous quarter. New Zealand was somewhat more optimistic, with a net 9 per cent expecting a growth in profitability.
Hooper said the statistics could be misleading as some local businesses doing really well were headquartered in Auckland.
He said Canterbury had a lot of small to medium businesses, which tended to have lower than average profitability.
"It doesn't mean they are not doing well, just that they tend to be smaller than the national average," he said.
