- That discount is likely "subtracted" from the room's rack rate (the highest price for the room on specific days during the peak booking season). Since it's unlikely that you'll ever be charged that price, the discount isn't really a discount at all.
- Advertisers also like to add "extras" to the room rate to artificially inflate that "70% off" and sometimes even "80% off" claim. This "value" often includes daily breakfast, internet access, and other surcharge-carrying services in the nightly rate. The discount, therefore, isn't based on just the room but is based on all the related services that might not be of use to you.
- Hotel rates are constantly changing. If an event is coming to town, room rates will skyrocket since demand is at a premium. Conversely, if there are extended periods of lower vacancy (hurricane season in the Caribbean, for example), room prices plummet. Attempting to determine the value of a percentage savings from such volatile price points is, at best, an inexact science.
- Don't only check one site and call it a day. By comparing prices across several providers, major online travel agencies, and your favorite hotel brand's site, you may find that one price point undercuts the rest-or offers a little something extra for the same price.
- Go for it, go opaque. You'll see the room class, neighborhood, amenities, price, and reviews before you book, but if you're willing to take a chance with the hotel brand, opaque sites such as our partners Hotwire and Priceline are great ways to save big.
- Forget the oranges, only compare apples to apples. Make sure you're comparing the same offerings across providers. And to ensure you're getting an even better deal, you'll want to compare prices for similar room types at all hotels.
- Look for discounts. Oftentimes, hotels offer additional savings for AAA and AARP members, students, military personnel and their families, teachers, and other groups.
- Join a private sale site. Sign up for a luxury discount-hotels site, such as JetSetter, which offers exclusive, members-only discounts at the finest properties throughout the world.
BookingBuddy allows you to search various partner sites at once so you can compare the prices and options offered. Offers and savings are based on information available on these sites. There is no guarantee that these prices, savings, hotels, or dates will be available at the time of booking. Please check the site for the most recent details. When you book travel, your booking is handled by one of those sites directly, not by BookingBuddy. Transactions, and all subsequent customer care, are directly handled by the site where you booked your travel. BookingBuddy does not control the price, rules, regulations, or restrictions surrounding the price. Please read all rules and regulations before booking.

Preparing the perfect cup of tea is a process to be savored. Watch how the traditional elements harmoniously come together to make the perfect cup and enjoy the liberation of pure tea goodness. This is what we call the Mighty Leaf signature multi-sensory ("sensory melange") tea experience. Come share with us and learn how to get infused.
The quality of tea is affected by the quality of water used to prepare it. Using filtered or bottled water is best. If possible, avoid brewing tea with tap, distilled or mineral water. Never over-boil water, as it results in flat-tasting tea.
1) Heat filtered or bottled water to a rolling boil or to 205 F. 2) While the water is heating pour hot water into your teapot and cups, let sit and then drain completely. A warm teapot will maintain the requisite temperature for superior tasting
Whole Leaf Tea
Slowly open up our specially created, sensually handcrafted tea pouch and enjoy the aroma of fresh whole tea leaves. Use one Mighty Leaf tea pouch per cup.
Infusion Time
Pour water over tea pouch. Time steeping carefully and infuse for 3 - 5 minutes. Watch how the leaves within the pouch have room to gracefully unfurl in your cup, creating a rich and flavorful infusion and a superior tasting tea.
Savor the Leaf
Sip your cup and rediscover the pleasure of the way tea was naturally meant to be. This is the magic of Mighty Leaf.

Health Benefits
Black tea contains an abundant source of natural plant-derived antioxidant compounds called polyphenols that aid in fighting harmful free radicals. Research shows that these free radicals can cause heart disease, cancer and increase the risk of strokes. Drinking black tea with its high antioxidant levels may help protect the body by combating harmful free radical activity.
Further health benefits of black tea may include lowering cholesterol, strengthening the immune system, promoting healthy blood vessel functionality and even protecting teeth and bones. In addition, black tea provides a source of nutrients including magnesium, Manganese, potassium, calcium, and the vitamins C and K all in trace amounts.
Organic Breakfast
A wake up tea that is drinkable with or without milk and sugar.
Also try as a quick pick me up during the day instead of coffee. Pairs well with a continental breakfast including cereal, fruit and toast.
Orange Dulce
Orange Dulce can be drunk like Organic Earl Grey, in the afternoon and after dinner. Instead of serving port after dinner, surprise your guest with this rich, chocolately tea. Pairs well with spicy and nutty foods.
Organic Earl Grey
A versatile tea, Organic Earl Grey, can be drunk in the afternoon, with dinner or as an iced tea. Try pairing with spicy and nutty foods. Makes an excellent accommodation with strong cheeses, fish, meat or game.
Vanilla Bean
Serve as in place of dessert wines or whenever you crave a sweet and sensual beverage with a gentle caffeine uplift. Especially good for breakfast when paired with french toast or a sweet, buttery croissant. Compliments chocolate and chocolate based desserts well.
Bombay Chai
Bombay Chai makes an excellent pick me up drink any time of day. Serve to guests as a welcoming gesture in your home. Instead of coffee, try drinking chai in the morning with milk and sugar.
Prepare a Chai Latte, using steeped Bombay Chai, steamed milk, sugar and powdered cinnamon or nutmeg on top.

Handmade of wool felt on a wooden base, exclusively for A Toy Garden. USA. Not for children under 3 years of age.
"Sonya, thank you for my order! It arrived a week or so ago and my children (and I!) love the toys. We are gradually getting rid of all of our plastic toys that "sing", as my daughter says, and replacing them with natural toys that inspire the imagination. The gnomes that we ordered have taken on so many roles in the last week...a mom for our dollhouse, a baby to make a bed for out of silks and tuck into said bed, a monster for the dollhouse, a little pet of some kind, and a grandma to the other toys! However, I must tell you...my daughter's favorite item from our order? The little stick-on ladybug from the receipt! Thank you, Kelly B., Tualatin, OR 8/26/07"

Lanes reopen on I-26
Published: Friday, May 10, 2013 at 12:14 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, May 10, 2013 at 12:14 p.m.
A trailer holding a Dodge 3500 became unhitched from a Ford truck on Interstate 26 shortly before noon Friday, crashing along the roadway and totaling the Dodge.
Merab Laliashvili of Charlotte was driving a Ford F350 truck and pulling the trailer eastbound at mile marker 57 when the hitch unlatched, sending the trailer and the Dodge truck down the road, said N.C. Highway Patrol Trooper C.E. Justice.
The Ford F350 crashed into a ditch off the right shoulder, Justice said. No one was injured.
The road was shut down for about 30 minutes until troopers could open one lane. Both lanes were cleared by 2 p.m., Justice said.
Laliashvili was charged with an improper connection violation.

I'm Ashley (McMillan) Weightman. I grew up in the small town of Wimbledon, North Dakota. In 2005 I moved to Bismarck to go to school where I graduated from the University of Mary with a Bachelors Degree in Communications and Business. I began working at the CBS affiliate as a reporter while in college and spent three years there. From CBS, I moved to Devils Lake to work at WDAZ-TV for a year, before continuing to work at WDAZ in Grand Forks. I married the love of my life Travis on June 23, 2012 and we now live in Bismarck with our three year old son, Corbin. Travis works at KXMB-TV and I at KLJ Engineering and attend Rasmussen College where I'm pursing a Bachelors Degree in Human Resources Management and Organizational Leadership.
Weight has been a struggle for me since I can remember. I do well for a while and then fall off the wagon. Four years ago I lost nearly 50lbs and was doing great. Two months after maintaining my weight, I found out that I was pregnant and gained 70lbs in nine months. I figured after I had Corbin, some of the pounds would fall off. Corbin weight 8lbs 12oz and I only lost 3lbs. Ever since December of 2009, I've been doing fad diets for about a month, trying the gym on and off, and eat healthy and nothing seems to be working. I've recently had some health issues and my doctor told me that in order to have more children and be a part of my children's life, I need to lose weight, but most importantly, I need to do it for me.
So I've gotten myself a chocolate shake that you can drink once a day, but I may have a slight addiction to chocolate and want to drink several. I'm sitting here, late at night, working on a couple different things and find myself wanting some chocolate.
A lot of people say that if you have a craving for something you should just have a small amount so that it doesn't get out of control and you end up binging on it. I'm wondering if anyone finds that true? I have also read that if you smell the thing that you are craving, you end up not wanting to eat it and just the smell cures the craving. To me, that would make it worse.
I have zero chocoalte in my house right now so I'm ok, but if there was, how would you suggest I fight the urge??

Join in the discussion of how you can help create a safe environment for youth at a Bullying Prevention Seminar from 7 to 9 p.m. Feb. 7, at St. Stephen's Episcopal Church, 212 N. Tulane Ave.
"Creating a Safe Environment" is the theme of the seminar focused on the impact and prevention of bullying. The community is invited to participate.
The program will include Scott Lucas, Anderson County Sheriff's Department deputy, speaking on "Anatomy of a Bully," and Ande Bradford-Baker, with the Oak Ridge Boys and Girls Club, speaking on "Confronting and Preventing Bullying." Bradford-Baker coordinates the Anti-Bullying Ambassadors at the Boys and Girls Club, and the Ambassadors will present a skit on bullying.
The Rev. David Lovett, pastoral assistant at St. Stephen's and a licensed professional counselor, will lead a brief healing service. There will be time for comments, questions and answers. Resource lists, handouts and other information will be available.
Bullying has an impact on many people, not just the person being bullied. Bystanders, defenders, supporters and even the bully are affected by this aggressive behavior.
Dan Olweus, creator of the Olweus Bullying Prevention Program, states: "A person is bullied when he or she is exposed, repeatedly and over time, to negative actions on the part of one or more other persons, and he or she has difficulty defending himself or herself."
For more information, call St. Stephen's church at (865) 483-8497.

NEW YORK -- California Chrome co-owner Steve Coburn has apologized for his bitter remarks after his horse failed to win the Triple Crown.
On ABC's "Good Morning America" on Monday, Coburn says he was "very ashamed of myself. Very ashamed. I need to apologize to a lot of people, including my wife, Carolyn." She tried to intervene as Saturday's interview got out of control.
He also apologized to the connections of winning horse Tonalist, saying: "I did not mean to take anything away from them."
On Saturday, he had said that Tonalist took "the coward's way out" by skipping the first two legs of the Triple Crown.
Coburn says he "wanted this so much, for this horse to win the Triple Crown for the people of America."
California Chrome co-owner Steve Coburn answers questions during an interview before the start of the draw for the Belmont Stakes horse race, Wednesday, June 4, 2014, at Belmont Park in Elmont, N.Y. The Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes winner will attempt to become the first Triple Crown winner since Affirmed in 1978 when he races in the 146th running of the Belmont Stakes horse race on Saturday.

Gregg Schlaman swears by his annual flu shot. For the past 20 years, Schlaman, a 51-year-old aerospace engineering specialist, has received the influenza vaccine in the comfort of his Palo Alto office, where a nurse administers it between coffee and meetings.
"I have noticed that I don't get sick as often as I used to," Schlaman says. "I think it's the best thing you can do to protect yourself during the winter."
To say John Styles disagrees is an understatement.
"I've never gotten the flu shot, and I never will," says Styles, a 39-year-old Oakland computer programmer who says he gets a cold once or twice a year but is otherwise healthy. "I just think there's too much room for error by the pharmaceutical companies. And I prefer to avoid needles when I can."
Why can't we agree on a seemingly simple health precaution? Because, like everything, pricking comes with pros and cons. Despite the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommendation that everyone over the age of 6 months get vaccinated against influenza, only 41 percent of adults and 56 percent of children actually receive the flu shot. Why? Opponents say the vaccine is not fool-proof; they still get sick, and sometimes, within a day of receiving it. Plus, it hurts.
Meanwhile, advocates, including experts, argue that even with mild side effects, the vaccine is a critical first step in protecting yourself, loved ones, and the larger population against the nasty disease, especially this year, since the CDC is offering for the first time a quadrivalent vaccine designed to protect against four different flu viruses: Two influenza A viruses (including H1N1) and two influenza B viruses.
Despite the potentially broader protection, efficacy still varies, depending on how well scientists in the spring are able to identify the flu strains that will be circulating during the upcoming season, says Jeffrey Silvers, an infectious disease specialist with Sutter Health's Eden Medical Center in San Leandro.
"Last year's match wasn't very good, and a lot of people got sick," he says. "But one year like that doesn't mean you shouldn't get the vaccine." Silvers says the optimal time to get the vaccine is late October or early November, since influenza typically hits the Bay Area in December or January. "Vaccine immunity wanes with time, so you don't want to get it too early," he says.
Even when the government does find correct viral matches, each person responds differently to the vaccine, depending on his or her age, immune system and underlying medical conditions. As Silvers explains, efficacy might be as high as 80 percent in a healthy young adult, but plummets to 50 percent or less in older people or someone fighting cancer, he says. People over 65 are also more likely to face serious complications or even death as a result of the flu.
"How do you protect your 85-year-old grandfather? You get vaccinated. His wife gets vaccinated. So does the caregiver," says Silvers, describing the concept of herd immunity. When contagious diseases are transmitted from individual to individual, chains of infection are likely to be disrupted when large numbers of a population are immune or less susceptible to the disease.
His overall stance on the influenza vaccine? It's not perfect, but it does help.
"Development of vaccines is a complex process," he says. "We measure response based on the body's ability to develop immunity toward the vaccine, but there is no perfect correlation between vaccine-induced immunity and resistance to infection."
Randy Bergen, a Walnut Creek pediatric infectious disease expert, agrees. "Even if it's only 30 percent effective, which some experts believe, when you look at the number of people we vaccinate, that has huge implications for the health of our community."
Still, he says, the vaccine doesn't protect you from all the other wintertime viruses, including the common cold. "It's the safest and most effective way to protect yourself against the flu," he says. "But you still have to wash your hands constantly and stay home when you're sick."
That's enough for Sylvia Solis to be a vaccine believer. The 29-year-old San Jose teacher's assistant spends her days "around a lot of germs" and has received a flu shot every year for a decade.
"I might have a little pain in my arm or some mild aches, but I don't mind," Solis says. "People always tell me, 'You're so lucky you don't get sick,' but I think it's the flu shot."
Sarah Sohm isn't so sure. It's not that Sohm, 28, is anti-vaccine. She just really hates getting shots. And, she doesn't see an immediate need to be vaccinated against influenza. "I don't have children that could get me sick, and I'm not around people I could get sick," she says.
But, every year, around this time, when Sohm calls her grandparents in Palo Alto to set up their next lunch date, her grandmother, Gayle Pena, skips hello and instead declares this into the phone: "Let's get that flu shot."
Last weekend, as they have for the past 10 years, they went to Safeway together and got their matching injections. "She knows I won't go on my own," Sohm says. "And she wants me to be healthy."
2. New, quadrivalent flu vaccine
This vaccine protects against two influenza A viruses (including H1N1) and two influenza B viruses. It contains a live virus and is in limited supply, so call your doctor or pharmacy to see if they're offering it this year. It is also offered with inactive strains. The following quadrivalent flu vaccines are available:

Sens. Pat Roberts (R-Kan.) and Mike Johanns (R-Neb.) introduced legislation this week that would eliminate a paperwork-laden redundancy in pesticide application permitting.
The bill, S. 175, is similar to H.R. 872 in the last Congress, which would have clarified Congress' intentions that National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits are not required for applications of pesticides already regulated under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA).
H.R. 872 was passed by the full House of Representatives in 2011 but expired with all other pending legislation at the end of the session. The Senate Agriculture Committee approved H.R. 872's companion legislation, though that bill faced procedural roadblocks that prevented full Senate consideration.

STOCKTON - A 32-year-old man driving west on Benjamin Holt Drive at Herndon Place about 5 p.m. Wednesday went to pass another car being driven slowly, police reported, but when he tried to pass, the other car sped up and swerved toward the man, nearly colliding with him.
Both cars were then stopped at a red light, and man who swerved punched out the passenger side window of the victim's car, then drove away.
The suspect vehicle was found in the 6800 block of Stonewall Court next to a stolen U-Haul trailer. The assailant was not found.

Hey readers, I hope all of you have had a wonderful holiday season and are ready to start the new year! For the next couple of posts I'm going to be doing simple dishes. Now when I say simple, I mean dishes that the busy mom, and thrifty college student can do, kids can help out too! They're also super fast and the ingredients are easy to come by.
The first one is a simple bread pudding. Paired with some vanilla ice cream, it's a dessert that you really can't get enough of!
1 Loaf of any egg based bread (French Toasting, Challah, ect)
2 T Melted Butter
4 Eggs
2 C Milk
3/4 C Sugar
1 tsp Cinnamon
1 tsp Vanilla extract
2 C Chocolate Chips
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Cut the bread into medium sized cubes and place in a deep dish pan.
Spread melted butter over bread and let it soak in.
Beat the eggs together, then add in all other ingredients excluding the chocolate chips.
When the ingredients are completely mixed together, pour over the bread (the kids can help with this part)
Sprinkle chocolate chips over the top and place into oven (this part too!)
Now the hardest part, waiting for it to bake! It should take 45 mins to 1 hr till its complelety done.
Serve and enjoy!
Now you can modify this recipe any way you'd like. You can add walnuts, raisins, dried cranberries, anything. Because after all, your the chef!

The State of California also appointed Kim Alexander to fill a second vacancy, but she was not present Thursday.
Laire is an active member in the community, serving on various boards in town, including the Planning Commission, which he served on for 16 years before his departure in 2008.
Laire said he had been interested in the fair for a while and has had people asking him about it frequently.
"I thought it would be interesting and a positive way to help the community," Laire said.
Rents will go up about $25 across the board, but have three different tiers. Local nonprofits will pay the least, being charged $550 for Sage Hall and $650 for Mesquite Hall.
Commercial renters can have the halls for $600 for Sage and $750 for Mesquite.
Finally, out-of-town renters will pay $650 for Sage and $850 for Mesquite.
Joshua Hall is rented out for the year.
All rates are effective as of Jan. 1. Any rentals made before 2013 will be honored at the original rates. CEO Mike Leming pointed out there are some wedding receptions that are only being charged $525 for that reason.
The board approved the rate increases 5-0, with President Ron Kicinski and new member Alexander being absent.
The directors did, however, suggest they take a look at the rates again soon, particularly because they are still lower than other rentals in town.
Director Doug Lueck said it may be worth it to look at raising the rates again based on what he hears in town.
"Other facilities complain because we are so low," Lueck said.
Laire, however, suggested that while they could raise the rates again, it is the fair's mission to be a place where local activities can take place.
"It is in our best interest to be low," Laire said. "We can take our time and see what happens."
See the Daily Independent Saturday for more on the meeting, including the board's safety concerns with the solar panels.

U.S. Sen. Schumer announced today he is pushing fellow senators to pass legislation to extend unemployment benefits for 1.3 million Americans.
Emergency Unemployment Compensation (EUC) lapsed at the end of 2013 and more than 127,000 New Yorkers lost the benefits. Of those, nearly 40 percent live in households with children and depend on the benefit to fund basic housing and living expenses.
Schumer stated the emergency compensation can only be given to those who are actively looking for work and the benefits account for just 43 percent of basic household costs per month though acting as "a vital lifeline for laid-off workers," stated Schumer.
According a report by the Council of Economic Advisors and the Department of Labor, an extension of the benefits would help keep New York families out of poverty and save about 19,826 jobs.

Saturday's letters: Conundrums
Published: Saturday, January 19, 2013 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, January 18, 2013 at 5:20 p.m.
To the editor: The Newtown, Conn., school massacre rightfully provoked a collective do something now response, suggesting issues gun control, mental illness, a culture of violence, school guards worthy of attention. But each poses conundrums.
Ascribing importance to that which is easy to do, rather than solving how to do the hard things which are truly important, is often easier when facing such challenges.
With the political will, gun control measures are relatively easy to implement, but most likely would have minimal impact in thwarting determined killers.
Mass shooters, almost by definition, have mental/emotional issues. But we dont now provide effective identification or treatment, much less confinement, of those who might threaten society that path being cluttered with medical, legal and budgetary obstacles.
Purveyors of gratuitous media violence legally enjoy First Amendment protections and will continue to ply their wares, less assuming a greater sense of moral responsibility.
Finally, placing trained, armed guards in schools might not be so far-fetched. Searching Google for average 911 response times reveals just how vulnerable many schools (and other crowded venues) are to willful predators. This might also be a good fit for veterans, screened and trained, landing in the weak job market as our military is downsized.
Henry Johnson
Laurel Park
Shared blame
To the editor: President Barack Obama is incorrect when he equates refusal to raise the so-called debt ceiling with the failure to pay the nations bills. The basic facts are quite simple, and they apply to individuals, families and units of government including the federal government.
The government has income and expenses. If the amount it wants to spend is greater than its income, then a deficit occurs. The choices include increasing the income, decreasing the spending, or borrowing more or some combination of the three.
One side wants to borrow more in order to continue spending, and the other side wants to reduce spending in order to avoid borrowing more. Neither side has the authority to make the decision on its own. Thus, they have to negotiate.
The president has complete power and authority to maintain the full faith and credit of the government. All he has to do is make the required loan payments and cut spending on other things.
We can damage the nations credit either by defaulting on existing obligations or by continuing to borrow beyond our means.
Any blame for whatever occurs must be shared by both sides. If they accept this, then maybe they will find a compromise.
Tom Dickey
Hit the range
To the editor: I ran into an old Marine buddy the other day, and the conversation turned to gun control, automatic weapons, etc. His opinion: If the shooter cannot hit his target within five rounds, he should return to the snapping-in (practice) range.
B. Parks
How much?
To the editor: That was one intriguing story headlined, Israeli law banning underweight models in effect, in the Jan. 10 Times-News. Too bad the Associated Press writer waited until the fifth-to-last paragraph to drop this bombshell: Stelman is 5-foot-7 and says she weighs around 6132 pounds but she isnt quite sure.

County readies athletic center for May opening
Published: Friday, March 22, 2013 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, March 21, 2013 at 9:30 p.m.
The county's new athletics and activity center should open to the public for basketball, volleyball and community functions by late May, after commissioners approved a $147,800 bid Wednesday to begin remodeling the former Hendersonville Christian School.
By a 4-0 vote, the board accepted Dunlap Construction's bid for work to renovate the school's former classroom building and 15,700-square-foot gymnasium. It includes renovating bathrooms, installing new doors and other hardware, replacing leaking skylights and other carpentry work.
Engineer Marcus Jones told commissioners he expects work on the gym and classroom building to be complete within about nine weeks, allowing public use for basketball, volleyball or sports camps and providing space for activities such as aerobics, dance, karate and arts or music instruction.
A youth basketball league has already requested to practice in the gym "and we're going to try and accommodate them by the end of the month, if we can," said Assistant County Manager David Whitson. He said Blue Ridge Community College is already using the facility on a limited basis for law enforcement classes.
Commissioners had approved $250,000 for remodeling the facility's buildings and parking, part of roughly $1 million in upgrades to the 9.45-acre property on South Grove Street.
The county was able to cut the renovation costs by repairing heating and air conditioning systems and installing lighting fixtures using its own staff, said Central Services Manager David Berry.
"Anything I could find that we could do in-house, we did," Berry said. "Value-engineering, we call it."
Jones told commissioners the county was also able to save $130,000 commissioners had budgeted for creating 65 additional parking spaces, as required by city code. Hendersonville officials waived those requirements based on a parking study the county provided.
However, Whitson said some of those savings will be plowed back into creating handicapped access to the classroom building's second floor, as required by the federal Americans with Disabilities Act. Six bathrooms also have to be renovated to conform with ADA, work that had already begun Thursday.
Berry said a Plexiglass-enclosed wheelchair lift has to be installed on the building's rear wall, rather than the ramp originally envisioned.
Installation of artificial turf on the athletic center's field, along with outdoor lighting for night play, probably won't be finished until later this summer, said Tim Hopkin, county parks and recreation director. That project has been budgeted to cost roughly $635,000.
"It's not going to be ready for play this spring, that's for sure, but I'd like to have it ready for next soccer season in the fall," Hopkin said. "And that will fall into the same time we can start programming things like flag football, lacrosse, ultimate Frisbee, any kind of field sport event."
Hopkin said the county plans to move one employee and programming from the Stoney Mountain Activities Center into the 12,000-square-foot classroom building sometime this summer. He said the new space will allow for "expanded classes and programs" such as scrapbooking, karate, ballet, YMCA day camps, clogging, square dancing and amateur radio.
"We'll also have more space for community events," he said. "Right now, we only have two spaces we can rent, at Edneyville (Community Center) and Dana."
Along with their purchase of the former Christian school property in October, commissioners budgeted $284,000 in repairs and renovations to Jackson Park, which were designed to bring its ballfields back up to "tournament standards."
The improvements include two new batting cages, doubling the number of restroom toilets, three new backstops, four new wireless scoreboards and repairs to dugouts, fencing and stairs.
Thomas Albright, chairman of the Henderson County Little League program, thanked the commissioners Wednesday and invited them to throw out the first pitch at 5:15 p.m. aPRIL 8, when nearly 100 5- and 6-year-olds return for spring play.
"Your work has not gone unnoticed, as I have already been contacted by Little League International about hosting a North Carolina 7-year-olds state championship and several (others)," Albright said.

The SJA Saints girls basketball team was on the road at St. Peter last Thursday and the SJA girls fell to the host Saints 70-45.
SJA fell behind early in the game and trailed at the half 35-17.
St. Peter had a size advantage and SJA Head Coach Adam Schroeder said, "St. Peter's size hurt us. Even though we out rebounded St. Peter, the difference was they were able to capitalize off their offensive rebounds.
"Their full court pressure slowed us down a bit as well." The young ball handlers of the Saints have had a tough time adjusting to the press over the course of this basketball season.
St. Peter applied a three-quarter court defense with two players pressing on the top and three defenders guarding near the basket.
This is likely the last time SJA sees St. Peter's senior Tailor Raymond. She has been a prolific scorer against St. James and last week she tossed in 26 points.
As is becoming common this season, freshman Julia Beckius led St. James Area in scoring with 19 points. She was the only player in double figures. Emily Hurley had eight points and Hurley led SJA in rebounding with a total of eight.

My bicycle is our second car. I love to bicycle in all weather, for all distances, and on all routes. Bicycling has brought so much joy to my life, and I want to share it with anyone who is interested. I will use my soapbox to tell you about the joys, the freedom, the benefits, and, yes, the challenges of bicycling and walking for transportation.
Some people believe that bicyclists don't pay taxes. Typically this argument is used to justify banning bicycles. The logic goes:
Highways are paid for by taxes.
Bicyclists don't pay taxes.
Ergo, highways are not for bicycles.
Putting aside the validity of the premise that highways are only for people who pay for them, the truth is that bicyclists do pay taxes.
I suppose the idea gets started because bicycles don't use gas, and our highways—but not our streets—are partly paid for through fuel taxes. There are two reasons why it is incorrect to say that bicyclists are getting a free ride on our highways.
First, most bicyclists own cars, drive them, and pay fuel taxes. People will drive a long way and spend a lot of money to bicycle in a race or a charity ride. When my brother tried a car-free week, he had to cut his week short by a day so he could drive to the mountain bike trail!
Second, and more importantly, the fuel tax is not nearly large enough to support our highway system. Even after closing the Macon office and several others, MoDOT can't maintain Missouri highways on the fuel tax alone and has proposed a 1% sales tax which I enthusiastically support. Highways are heavily federally subsidized, and bicyclists contribute to the non-fuel tax revenue stream through income taxes, sales taxes, etc.
Kirksville city streets are not funded through fuel taxes at all. Bicyclists pay property taxes on their homes and vehicles. Bicyclists pay sales tax on the things they buy in town. Bicyclists support the landowners who pay property taxes, through rent and patronizing restaurants and local businesses.
The idea that bicyclists don't pay taxes may stem from a notion that bicyclists are predominantly poor people who can't afford cars or pay taxes (another fallacy). I can peg-hole (or stereotype) the bicyclists I see easily. Without doing proper research, my feeling is that in order of quantity, the bicyclists I see are: 1) students, 2) training for fitness, 3) recreational bicyclists, 4) homeless, and 5) green. By "green" I mean they choose to bicycle because it is environmentally friendly. Bicyclists are NOT predominantly impoverished, nor do most poor people bicycle. Like the rest of us, most poor people rely on motorized transportation.
Choosing to bicycle to work allows me to spend more time and money driving to visit family and friends. I pay fuel taxes, income taxes, sales taxes, and property taxes. I support landlords and businesses and the taxes they pay. I pay for the streets and highways that I bicycle and drive on and that future generations will use.

St. Anthony Messenger
first appeared in print in 1893. Throughout its century-plus of continuous
publication we have been addressing the religious and spiritual concerns
of Catholic families and readers while applying Catholic teaching
to the problems and situations we meet in everyday life.
Our Franciscan forefathers, Saints Francis of Assisi and Anthony of
Padua, took the gospel of Christ into the marketplace to meet people where
they were. We too hope to meet you where you arehere on the Web!
Each month at this site you will find articles about everything from
Scripture to social problems, movie and TV reviews, editorials and responses
of the Franciscan priest who writes Ask a Franciscan.
Look for us here. God give you peace and good!
Father Jack Wintz, O.F.M.

It seems to me that they aren't thinking clearly about this.....Trying to imagine how to communicate with a future civilization, without any intervening civilizations.If this future civilization is so much more advanced than us, they will likely have the means to use or dispose of the radwaste. If they are not more advanced, they will not be able to understand the dangers and any warning would be futile. And in the mean time, each successive generation can update the warnings as needed.
Doc's right. Most "official" thinking about the future suffers from this sort of linear stupidity.Everything will be pretty much like right now, except it will be far, far in the future.They probably said the same thing only eight thousand years ago, when they were starting to figure out agriculture. "Eight thousand years from now, they'll have much better sticks with which to poke holes in the ground for seeds."
I'm particularly fond of the laces on the spaceship.
