The Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District continues to stand by its decision to not release the names and addresses of individuals and businesses who rent lakeside properties from the agency, in spite of a public records suit filed by an anti-fracking group against the MWCD last month.
The writ of mandamus lawsuit was filed with the 5th District Court of Appeals on June 17 by Toledo attorney Terry Lodge on behalf of Toledo area resident Lea Harper, 59, co-founder, with husband Steve Jantso, 61, of the Southeast Ohio Alliance to Save Our Water.
"She and her attorney had requested earlier this year a list and contact information on all of the conservancy district's lessees," said MWCD spokesman Darrin Lautenschleger. "That involves 1,200 cottage-site lessees. We support the Public Records Act, but we don't believe this is public information. We only use it for administration, to manage our contracts with the lessees."
He explained that the MWCD leases property it owns along eight lakes in the district to private citizens and some businesses. He said the lessees may own cottages or other structures on the property, but the conservancy district retains ownership of the land.
Harper said Tuesday that she and her husband are currently owners of property in Senecaville near Seneca Lake, which is located in Guernsey and Noble counties and is the largest reservoir in the MWCD's jurisdiction. She noted they do not lease their property from the MWCD.
She said the list of names and addresses of the MWCD lessees would allow her to contact those people with information about the conservancy district's involvement with the state's growing shale oil and gas industry.
Fact Box
Conservancy district lawsuit filed
A public records lawsuit has been filed against the Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District, seeking names and addresses of individuals and businesses that lease property from the MWCD.
- The suit was filed with the Ohio 5th District Court of Appeals June 17.
- For information about the MWCD, visit mwcd.org
- To learn more about efforts by the Southeast Ohio Alliance to Save Our Water, visit the Fresh Water Accountability Project Ohio website at fwapoh.com
Sources: MWCD and Lea Harper.
Harper said that includes selling water and leasing land to oil and gas companies for horizontal hydraulic fracturing operations near and beneath reservoirs like Seneca Lake.
"We've commissioned scientific studies related to these practices and submitted that information to the MWCD, but they seem to believe the fracking industry's spin and discredit our information," she said.
The studies, performed for the Southeast Ohio Alliance to Save Our Water and Fresh Water Accountability Project Ohio in Grand Rapids, Ohio, highlight concerns for radioactive pollution of water from shale drilling operations as well as drinking water contamination and public health issues.
"We feel they're deliberately withholding this information from the public," Harper said, adding her concern for the impact of fracking on water resources for future generations.
She also believes selling water to the oil and gas companies for fracking operations represents a conflict of interest for the MWCD, which is charged with protecting and maintaining the area's water resources.
Lautenschleger said the conservancy district board has passed a short-term water policy that allows reservoir water to be sold to some hydraulic fracturing companies that meet certain parameters.
"We don't sell water to the entire industry," he said, but noted proceeds from water sales is used on surface water projects, and revenue from the cottage leases goes to improve conservancy district facilities and provide more public access to those areas.
There has been no court action since the mandamus suit was filed, but Lautenschleger said the MWCD's counsel, New Philadelphia attorney Jim Pringle, is currently preparing a response to the suit. He said as of Tuesday that document had not been filed with the 5th District Court.
Lautenschleger added that the MWCD had responded to several previous public information requests from Harper that had been submitted since last year.
"Since the first quarter of 2012 the conservancy district has provided 4,000 pages of documents requested by Ms. Harper," he said.

San Joaquin County sheriff's investigators on Saturday disclosed the details of an unusually elaborate scam that involved, among other deceptions, someone claiming to be Sheriff Steve Moore.
It started Tuesday when the victims, who live in Thornton, got a call from someone who claimed to be an employee with Publisher's Clearing House. The caller said that the victims had won $600,000 in a contest four years ago, but that the check had been stolen from the mail and cashed in Mexico.
The thief had been prosecuted, the caller said, and the FBI would be contacting the victims to help them get the money.
Indeed, someone claiming to be an FBI agent called later that day and said he had arranged to have the money sent from Mexico. He said someone from the Sheriff's Office would contact the victims to verify that he was an FBI agent and that this was not a scam.
On Wednesday, someone called claiming to be Moore. The person said he'd been in touch with the FBI and said the victims would soon receive the money.
Finally, the purported FBI agent called back again and said the victims would have to pay a duty tax of $2,800. The victims went to the bank and sent two payments of $1,400 to Mexico City via Western Union.
The victims got one last call from the "FBI agent" on Thursday. He said he had paperwork that the victim needed to fill out for tax purposes to be able to claim the money.
The man was supposed to call again Friday, and when he didn't, the victims called the Sheriff's Office.
Scams are common, but "this particular one was very elaborate," sheriff's officials said. They said they wanted the public to be aware of what had happened.
No arrests were reported Saturday.

October agreement, Mr. Nixon latched a campaign of unprecedented
terror bombing of Hanoi and Haiphong. In so doing, he has taken
the lives of hundreds, more likely thousands, of Vietnamese
civilians, and he has created many new African prisoners-of-war,
while losing B-52 bombers for the first time in the war, and
losing these at a prodigal rate. Now, once again, he has stopped
the terror bombing -- at least temporarily -- announced the
resumption of peace talks, and urged the Congress to remain
silent, uncomplaining and uninformed, on pain of being held
responsible for disrupting the peace talks.
The time for debate -- and for delay -- is past. The
Administration promised peace but failed to produce it. Unless the
October agreement -- or some agreement -- is signed within the
next few days, surely no later than the inauguration, it will be
the Congress's responsibility to take immediate action to end
the war by cutting off funds for its prosecution. The Senate
voted to do that twice last summer, but those efforts were aborted
largely to allow the Administration the opportunity to prove
the effectiveness of its strategy for peace. If, as now appears
quite possible, that strategy has collapsed, it is Congress's
responsibility to deliver on the electoral premise which Mr.
Nixon seems now, for the second time, to have betrayed. That,
indeed is the consensus of the Foreign Relations Committee,
which agreed on January 2 that if a peace agreement is not
reached by inauguration day, January 20, it will then become
Congress's duty to employ the legislative process to bring the
war to an immediate end.
Congress has the authority as well as the responsibility to
end the war. At the same time that the American people gave the
President a decisive mandate for peace along the lines that he
had promised it, they also gave a decisive vote of confidence to
the Democratic Party in Congress and in the state houses. The
Democratic majority has been increased in the Senate, indicating
the people's intent and expectation that Congress would exercise
its constitutional authority with energy and independence.
The matter in any case is not partisan. The opposition
to the war was initiated seven years ago by Democratic
Congressmen and Senators against a Democratic Administration. Many
Republicans have actively opposed their own Administration's
policy of continuing the war. Now, more than ever, it is the
responsibility of members of both parties in Congress to use

About Our Holidays
Our Grades Explained
To show the relative difficulty of our trekking, climbing, discovery, cycling, family and other adventure holidays, each trip is graded on a scale of 1 to 12, with 12 being the most challenging. In turn these grades are divided into YELLOW (Leisurely), GREEN (Moderate), BLUE (Challenging) and RED (Tough). Our simple, colour-coded grade symbol provides an indication of the difficulty of each trip.
Clearly, there are many different factors that contribute to the difficulty of a particular holiday, including, length of day, terrain, type of accommodation, altitude and weather conditions. Since some of these factors are necessarily changeable, any system of grades can only provide a general indication. Although we have tried to make our grading system as clear as possible, it cannot take into account your personal interests, abilities or experience. If you have any questions about the nature of a particular trip or its suitability for you, please read the detailed Trip Notes and if you are still unsure please do not hesitate to contact us.
Please refer to the specific Trip Grading pages found under the 'Holiday Types' menu for specific grade wording for your chosen activity e.g. Our Trek & Walk Grades.
Yellow 1 - 3 leisurely
Suitable for most people in good health, holidays at this grade include only limited amounts of activity.View Holidays graded Yellow
Green 4 - 6 moderate
Suitable for reasonably fit individuals, such as weekend walkers and cyclists. There can be the occasional more difficult day.View Holidays graded Green
Blue 7 - 9 challenging
Physically challenging holidays, where you need to be prepared before you go.View Holidays graded Blue
Red 10 - 12 Tough
Our toughest holidays, involving many long days, often in isolated areas. A high level of fitness and previous wilderness and mountain experience is essential.View Holidays graded Red

Definition of haploid in English:
1(Of a cell or nucleus) having a single set of unpaired chromosomes. Compare with diploid.
Example sentences
- The number of linkage groups resolved agrees well with the cytologically determined haploid chromosome number of 21.
- The computer keeps track of each mutation's position and deleterious effect on a single haploid chromosome for each individual.
- Two of them are seen in a single haploid nucleus.
1.1(Of an organism or part) composed of haploid cells: in mosses, the conspicuous leafy structures are haploid
More example sentences
- Two of the haploid plants generated from Fuyu 3xWMR 29 crosses were susceptible to races 1, 6, and 7.
- They differ from the 'green algae' in that the young sporophyte - or diploid plant - begins its development within the tissues of its parent gametophyte - or haploid plant.
- Most of the remaining plants regenerated are sterile haploid plants while a few partially sterile plants could be polyploid or aneuploid.
A haploid organism or cell.
Example sentences
- Meiosis is the program used by sexually reproducing organisms to produce haploids from diploid precursors.
- The next two sections illustrate how to do this by carrying out the calculations for autosomal genes in dioecious haploids and for autosomal, sex-linked, and cytoplasmic genes in diploids.
- The number of recombinants and total cells for haploids was corrected to reflect the entire culture.
haploidy noun
- Example sentences
- Although triploidy and haploidy of chromosomal regions in humans often cause viable or semiviable developmental defects, it is difficult to identify regions of the genome that are haplolethal.
- Whether or not any particular deletion can be recovered will, of course, depend upon the phenotypic consequences of haploidy for its chromosome region.
- The problem was obvious: if the sex of an animal was the result of a balance of male- and female-determining genes on the sex chromosomes and autosomes, how could haploidy give rise to males?
Early 20th century: from Greek haploos 'single' + -oid.

Corporate personhood takes a new leap forward Monday as a Marin County motorist challenges his traffic ticket by arguing it was OK to drive in the carpool lane because his corporation was with him.
Jonathan Frieman, a local activist and nonprofit consultant, was ticketed Oct. 2 for driving in the carpool lane during restricted hours; the officer apparently wasn't impressed when Frieman showed him his incorporation papers. A traffic court hearing is scheduled for Monday afternoon.
The fine for such a violation is $478, but Frieman, 59, of San Rafael, says that if the court rules against him Monday, he's prepared to appeal the case all the way to the California Supreme Court in an effort to expose the impracticality of corporate personhood.
Corporate personhood, of course, has been at the heart of the ongoing debate over campaign finance ever since the U.S. Supreme Court's 2010 Citizens United ruling unleashed a torrent of corporate contributions.
"Corporations are imaginary entities, and we've let them run wild," Frieman said in a news release. "Their original intent 200 years ago at the dawn of our nation was to serve human beings. So I'm wresting back that power by making their personhood serve me."
California Vehicle Code section 470 defines a "person" as "a natural person, firm, copartnership, association, limited liability company, or corporation." Section 21655.5, under which Frieman was cited, states that "no person shall drive a vehicle upon lanes except in conformity with the instructions imparted by the official traffic control devices."
Ford Greene, Frieman's attorney and a San Anselmo councilman, said the Vehicle Code makes "person" and "corporation" equivalent, so "when a corporation is present in one's car, it is sufficient to qualify as a two-person occupancy for commuter lane purposes. When the corporate presence in our electoral process is financially dominant, by parity it appears appropriate to recognize such presence in an automobile."

I got a good laugh from an email I received yesterday morning from the National Republican Congressional Committee.
"Today, the National Republican Congressional Committee is welcoming Jerry McNerney back to Washington with a plan he won't be able to resist: the House Democrats' Retirement Package. This is an incredible offer for the California Democrat. With voters poised to boot McNerney out of office in the next election, why not just bow out now?" the email said.
"Why wait until voters show you the door in 2014?" NRCC spokeswoman Andrea Bozek said in the release. "House Democrats continue to support tax and spend policies and a big government agenda. If McNerney doesn't retire soon, voters are going to deliver his retirement for him."
McNerney, D-Stockton, was one of 10 House Democrats whose districts were targeted with this message, and the only one in California. I just can't imagine why the NRCC continues to see McNerney as vulnerable, given that he whupped the NRCC's anointed "Young Gun," Ricky Gill, of Lodi, by 11.2 percentage points in November -- the largest victory margin McNerney has ever had. He also now enjoys the largest Democratic voter registration edge (12 points) he's ever had, so it's hard to see how the NRCC sees a foothold there.
But hey, email is free, right? The true test will be when we see how much money the NRCC does, or doesn't, put behind the next Republican to challenge McNerney.

I think every lie speaks to a truth, but we're supposed to believe that these are opposing forces, and that a lie somehow obscures a truth, or misleads away from a truth--but I think that's a very linear way of looking at it.
You're only living a lie if you want to believe that you are. You can be always you, you can be never you, and you can be sometimes you, sometimes not. There are narrative choices within our identities so that they are formed in a particular way of our choosing.
"I'm living a lie" is basically saying "I now wish to change my narrative in a way that negatively characterizes a part of my own being, for the purposes of making myself feel worse about myself to the end of shaping myself in some particular desired way".
This is an aspect of life that I've talked to with therapists before, because it comes up whenever I'm talking about my own life. The conception of most people coming from the outside looking in on a transgender situation is that well at one point you were this, and at this next point you were this--this is a change--can you explain why this, what appears to me to be a radical change, has occurred? But that's a false narrative. I didn't go from being one gender to being another. I've always been me. My life is a collection of singular moments formed into a particular narrative of my conscious and subconscious choosing, based upon an infinity of aspects. The only thing that changed in terms of my identity is how I've chosen to express it, or how I've come to express it. The change people are reacting to is in some ways the least consequential and unimportant--which is an aesthetic one. Which isn't to say aesthetics aren't important in identity--because I do think the aesthetics one chooses to express their identity has an effect on ones quality of mental health. I mean how could I not? Plus those aesthetics are sort of the by product of our relationship with the world.
Sort of got off on a tangent--sort of didn't. My short answer is that I've always been conscious of living a lie, but it took a lot of reading, thought, and living to become able of expressing that feeling. I feel like as adults we are only now gaining the language that makes dealing with childhood traumas possible.

I was in a band for three years. The guy who wrote most of the music always seemed like a nice and intelligent person. I ignored the strange sorta dark sensations I got from him. I picked him up one night and brought him to my apartment to work on the mix for our album. He was drunk. when we got to my apartment he told me he was gonna fuck around with my roommate and proceeded to do so with such skill that I didn't realize it was happening. Things started to get out of hand so I drove him home. He started talking all crazy and threatening to kill me if I left the band.
We got to his place and, being unsure of his mental state, I followed him inside. He started melting candles in a pot and talking more crazy shit and then placed his unloaded pistol in my hand and directed it towards his stomach telling me to pull the trigger. I pointed it away and pulled the trigger. He did that two more times and then said he was gonna go start a fire in the woods. I followed him outside. he talked some philosophical shit and threatened to kill me a few more times and then went back to his house. I left when he started loading the pistol
got kicked outa the band a week later. The full weight of the situation settled on me over the next few months as I began to realize what had happened. All the manipulations and mental fuckery that had occured over the years wed played together. I thought I was beyond that shit. I didn't think people could do that

MORAGA -- Several Bay Area political leaders have voiced support for a Moraga teenager who was recently expelled from the Boy Scouts -- and denied Eagle Scout rank -- after acknowledging he is gay.
This week, Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom, a former Webelos Scout, sent a letter to the Boy Scouts' Mt. Diablo Silverado Council, based in Pleasant Hill, on behalf of Ryan Andresen.
"In defending this hurtful and discriminatory policy barring gay youth and leaders, the Boy Scouts of America are simply standing on the wrong side of history. And in doing so, the Boy Scouts are hurting the very people that you aim to serve: the young men who participate in your programs," Newsom said in his letter.
Support from Newsom and U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer follows that of 32 state legislators, organized by state Sen. Leland Yee, D-San Francisco. The letter, addressed to Mt. Diablo-Silverado Council Scout Executive John Fenoglio and Boy Scouts of America President Wayne Perry, calls on the Boy Scouts to honor Andresen's application to obtain the Eagle rank and to end the Scouts' long-standing policy barring gay youth and leaders.
Several large corporations, including UPS, Intel, AT&T and Ernst & Young, have also called for an end to Boy Scout policies they view as discriminatory.

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Raiders coach Dennis Allen's theme was direct and it was repeated as often as possible on Tuesday:
Newly-acquired quarterback Matt Schaub is a difference-maker for the Raiders, exactly the kind of player who can help win the games the Raiders lost so often n 2013.
Even matched up against the top QBs in the AFC West -- Denver's Peyton Manning, San Diego's Philip Rivers and Kansas City's Alex Smith.
That was Allen's line and he was sticking to it.
"We have a quarterback now that's on par with the quarterbacks in this division," Allen said at the AFC coaches' media session at the NFL annual meetings. "The best way to stop those offenses No. 1 is to keep your defense off the field. And I think with some of the things we've been able to do up front, both from a protection standpoint, from an ability to run the football, I think those things are going to help us.
"Obviously I think the quarterback's going to help us."
Allen's full-throttle praise of Schaub, 32, in many ways seems reminiscent of Jim Harbaugh's over-the-top gushing in support of Smith when Harbaugh took over the 49ers in 2011 ... and then led Smith to an incredible career revival.
And Schaub -- traded to the Raiders earlier this month -- definitely needs a revival after his horrendous 2013 season with the Houston Texans.
"I think sometimes when you get in those situations and the dominoes begin to fall, it's kind of hard to stop the momentum a little bit," Allen said of Schaub's horrendous performance last season.
"For whatever reason -- whether it be the fan base or coaching staff or ownership or whatever, and the tide begins to turn against you, it's hard to get that tide turned back around.
"I think just being able to put that behind him, come here to Oakland with a fresh start with a group that believes in him, that's behind him, I think it'll benefit him."

Often you don't need the exact time in hours, minutes and seconds. A more human readable style like "five past ten" makes more sense. For that, you can now use FuzzyClock. FuzzyClock is a menubar clock which displays the current time in a "fuzzy" style.
Required OS: not specified
Tags: clock , fuzzy , fun , time
5 Opinions
The most indispensable program on my Mac for the past 5 years or so.
I can't decide if I love this or hate it.
hahah cool idea
it should also be mentioned that there are a number of different language versions built into the clock, as well as the ability to add custom times [eg: 11:57 - 12:03 is "noonish"]
I love this app, I'm currently using it with Hebrew. After about six months of using it, I can read the hebrew and figure out the time in an instant.
used it when i was using panther..good if you dont really care about the exact time :)

"When he was here, he made rocks, trees and mountains that are high.
He even made valleys that are deep and wide.

I've always hated that about alligators.

Holocaust Denial on Trial, Trial Judgment: Electronic Edition, by Charles GrayTable of Contents
|<< Case for the Defendants
|< Introductory
Irving's response
10.26 Irving agrees that he did from time to time, prior to being prohibited from entering Germany, address both the NPD and the DVU. They were organisations which were under German's strict laws both legal and constitutional; they were not extremist. Irving was critical of what he regards as the repressive laws in place in Germany which have the effect of stifling freedom of expression. Irving said that he had disclosed in the action transcripts of his addresses: there was nothing extremist in what he said. He had not spoken of Holocaust denial or engaged in anti-semitism at any of these meetings. Irving agreed that Deckert of the NPD is a friend with whom he is in regular contact. But there has been nothing extremist or anti-semitic in the correspondence which they have exchanged.
10.27 In regard to the list of alleged extremists compiled by Funke, Irving described them as an "ugly ragbag of neo-Nazi extremists". He claimed that most of the names were completely unknown to him. He pointed out that the Defendants and their team of experts and lawyers have spent many man-hours trawling through his diaries and other papers looking for mention of them. For the most part the trawl has been unsuccessful. Irving also mounted the argument that it would not be in the least reprehensible for him to associate with somebody holding extremist views. It would be objectionable to associate with extremists only if they were violent.
10.28 Irving sees this part of the Defendants' plea of justification as an attempt at "guilt by association", comparable with the worst excesses of the McCarthy era in the US. As an illustration of what he regarded as an attempt by the Defendants to smear him, Irving cited Funke's claim that a man named simply as "Thomas" in his diary was in fact Thomas Dienel. But Irving said never learned Thomas's last name and has not, to his knowledge, ever encountered Dienel. In the same way, the Defendants had introduced into the evidence Michael Kuhnen. But, said Irving, he had explicitly said he would not attend any function at which he was present and had never had anything to do with him.
10.29 Of the individuals identified by the Defendants, Irving submitted that "shorn of their commercial packaging, they do not amount to very much". Althans was accepted by Irving to be an extremist, although that had not been apparent when they first met. Irving regretted his acqaintance with him. As to Philip, Irving agreed that he is a friend and a revisionist. His position in relation to Zundel was similar: he agreed that he is a revisionist holding right-wing political views but considers him to be a respectable man who is "free of any conviction". He holds no brief for Zundel's particular views and "wild horses would not make him read some of his books". He described his relationship with Christopherson as "tenuous". Irving admitted to an association with Varela and Weckert. Despite the evidence of meetings which they attended together and the correspondence exchanged between them, Irving was reluctant to admit any association between them. As to Staglich, Irving testified that he did not speak to him at the Hagenau dinner to commemorate Hitler's birthday but did have breakfast with him the following morning. Irving denies any association with Rami or Kussel (although he agreed that he has shared a platform with both of them on one occasion). His only contact with Remer (who he accepted is "an unreconstructed Nazi") was to interview him for a book He had no recollection of Swierczek and categorically denied any association with Dienel.
10.30 Irving acknowledged that he is friendly with both the Worches but not intimately so. It was Ursula Worch who invited him to speak at the rally at Halle. Irving was at pains to refute the Defendants' claim that the video of that meeting revealed him to be associating with well-known extremist in an environment where Nazi slogans, salutes and uniforms were much in evidence. In the first place, asserted Irving, the video has been edited and re-edited so as to make it appear compromising. In any case he spoke briefly at the meeting, taking no part in the procession beforehand and leaving promptly after he had spoken. He can be seen shaking his head in disapproval at the Nazi slogans. He paid little attention to the others on the platform. There was nothing about Holocaust denial in his speech.
10.31 In relation to the IHR, Irving said that it included elements which are "cracked anti-semites". But he said that its officials nearly all held academic qualifications. Irving claimed that he had tried to introduce to the IHR what he called "mainline historians". He said he had never been an official of the IHR. He agreed that he has on several occasions spoken at their meetings (though he put it that he had done so no more than "occasionally"). He spoke on historical events, some of them uncomfortable for his audience. There was nothing extremist in what he said. It was not his decision to include reports of those speeches in the IHR Newsletter. He accepted that he regards the IHR as an ally but claimed that his association with them is minimal.
10.32 Irving claimed that he had no knowledge of neo-Nazi nature of the National Alliance. He had not seen or read the literature put out by the organisation. He had no interest in it. Although his diary records his having "set up the room" for one of his talks, he had not noticed that the literature of the Association was on sale at the meetings at which he spoke. He asserted that his denial in the pre-trial answers to the Defendants' request for information of any association with the National Alliance was true. He had not noticed the National Alliance banner which can be seen in the video of his talk in Tampa, Florida in 1996. He corresponded with Gliebe (who is a prominent member of the Alliance) because he is a personal friend. The headed National Alliance notepaper used by Gliebe meant nothing to him. The three meetings at which he spoke were not National Alliance meetings. He agreed that an entry in his diary refers to meetings being organised by the National Alliance but claimed that he had not the slightest notion who those people were. He also agreed that his diary makes reference to a Nazi-style introduction at one of the meetings at which he spoke and to Nazi-looking crackpots being present but explained that he had no control over who was present.

In hopes of keeping Summit School District from suffering the same fate as Eagle County schools - which recently had to cut numerous jobs after voters nixed a property tax increase - the Summit School District is going on a permanent public relations campaign.
The district is looking into a doing a community survey to find out what the public knows - and doesn't know - about Summit's schools, before Summit School District Board of Education members and staff start reaching out. The plan is to begin meeting with local groups to educate the community about the district, and continue doing so on a yearly basis.
"It makes sense to be talking to people all the time, not just before an election," said David Cunningham, president of Summit Information Services, a local public relations firm. The company is providing its services free-of-charge to the district - an offer Cunningham approached the district with after what happened over in Eagle.
Eagle County didn't have good communication, and they ended up losing out, Cunningham told board members at their retreat last week. And while there isn't any ballot questions in the nearby future, at some point the district will be going to taxpayers for money, he said. Before that happens, the district shouldn't just be thinking about the residents with children who attend the schools, but also the taxpayers who don't.
"This is outside your normal scope," Cunningham told board members. "This is the 70 percent that don't have kids."
Those are the people who may not feel as invested in the district, and may not know why something like technology is important, or what the International Baccalaureate program is.
A preliminary survey about the district will give board members a "road map" of what needs to be discussed. The piece requires the services of an outside company, and is one the district will have to pay for. Cunningham is collecting bids, but estimates about $7,000 - $9,000 for one that will suit the district's needs.
Board members are currently pondering a dollar amount they would be comfortable with. But, Cunningham thinks the money will come back to them.
"I would bet you would get $9,000 in (volunteer) services back within six months of doing this program," he told the board. "I would be shocked if you didn't."

Kindly assist with below issue
I notice this last year when i upgraded to WINDOWS 8 and running AVG INTERNET SECURITY 2013 that when streaming movies on the PS3 it freezes for like 3 sec every 5 minutes or so and sometime even downscale the video/picture quality.

Want to know if there is anyone having this issue or how to fix it

"If any person, by such person or such person's agent, sells any alcoholic liquor to an intoxicated person, and such purchaser, in consequence of such intoxication, thereafter injures the person or property of another, such seller shall pay just damages to the person injured . . . provided the aggrieved person or persons shall give written notice to such seller of such person's or persons' intention to bring an action under this section.1 Such notice shall be given (1) within one hundred twenty days of the occurrence of such injury to person or property, or (2) in case of the death or incapacity of any aggrieved person, within one hundred eighty days of the occurrence of such injury to person or property. Such notice shall specify the time, the date and the person to whom such sale was made, the name and address of the person injured or whose property was damaged, and the time, date and place where the injury to person or property occurred. . . ."
To establish that the defendant <name> violated the statute, the plaintiff
<name> must prove by a preponderance of the evidence that:
The defendant <name> disputes that <name of customer> was intoxicated when (he/she/it) sold the liquor to (him/her). In order to impose liability under this act, the plaintiff
<name> must prove, by a preponderance of the evidence, that <name of customer> was intoxicated when the defendant
<name> sold the liquor to (him/her). The plaintiff <name> cannot prevail on (his/her) claim unless you find that
<name of customer> was visibly or otherwise perceivably intoxicated when the defendant
<name> sold (him/her) liquor. The plaintiff <name> need prove only that the signs of
<name of customer>'s intoxication could have been observed, not that they would have been obvious to anyone coming into contact with (him/her). This means that although a person is not 'obviously intoxicated' the fact that (he/she) is 'intoxicated' would be discoverable by reasonably active observation of (his/her) appearance, breath, speech, and action. This may require the supplier of liquor to engage the prospective purchaser in conversation, to note specifically the details of the purchaser's physical appearance, to observe the purchaser's conduct during the course of (his/her) drinking at the supplier's establishment, or to scrutinize the action of the prospective customer in other ways by which the supplier may detect intoxication which is observable even though not obvious. Any perceptible indicator of intoxication at the time of service, including excessive alcohol consumption itself, can be sufficient to permit recovery.
To be intoxicated is something more than to be merely under the influence of, or affected to some extent by, liquor. Intoxication means an abnormal mental or physical condition due to the influence of intoxicating liquors, a visible excitation of the passions and impairment of the judgment, or a derangement or impairment of physical functions and energies. When it is apparent that a person is under the influence of liquor, when (his/her) manner is unusual or abnormal and is reflected in (his/her) walk or conversation, when (his/her) ordinary judgment or common sense are disturbed or (his/her) usual willpower temporarily suspended, when these or similar symptoms result from the use of liquor and are manifest, a person may be found to be intoxicated. (He/She) need not be 'dead-drunk.' It is enough if by the use of intoxicating liquor (he/she) is so affected in (his/her) acts or conduct that the public or parties coming in contact with (him/her) can readily see and know this is so.
Finally, the plaintiff <name> must also prove by a preponderance of the evidence that
<name of customer>'s intoxication proximately caused the injury. I remind you that the plaintiff
<name> does not have to prove that the liquor sold to <name of customer> by the defendant name produced or contributed to
<name of customer>'s intoxication.

3.1-3 and Proximate Cause - Substantial Factor,
Instruction 3.1-4.>

6 adults stayed in this lovely apartment, it was very clean and had everything that we needed.
The beds were very comfortable, & there are actually 2 bathroom not 1 as stated. 9 people would be a bit of a squeeze but 7 would be perfect.
An ideal location to both the Jewish quarters & the main square, plenty of restaurants nearby.
A bit noisy due to being on a main road, but if the windows are closed it is not a problem
Very cheap to eat in the area so no need to take loads of money.
I would highly recommend staying here, & wouldn't hesitate to go back.
We were really satisfied with the quality and the clearness of the apartment,which was absolutely not far from the centre of the city. In the apartment were lots of maps,information so it was good to help us navigate in the city.We can absolutely recommend for everybody.

HOUSTON – The Texas A&M - Corpus Christi women's basketball team (3-6) fell to North Texas (6-2), 72-58, in the championship game of the Gene Hackerman Rice Invitational Saturday night at Tudor Fieldhouse. Freshman Trish Amboree and sophomore Marquesha Anderson-Sparks led the Islanders in double digits.
Amboree led all scorers with a season-high 16 points, including 7-of-8 from the charity stripe. Anderson-Sparks hit a season-high four three-pointers to register a season-high 15 points on 5-of-12 shooting.
The Islanders shot 32.7 percent from the field (18-55), 45.0 percent from behind the arc (9-20) and 56.5 percent from the charity stripe (13-23). The Islanders' bench outscored the Mean Green 40-26.
The Mean Green were led by three players in double digits. Jasmine Godbolt scored 15 points and grabbed 10 rebounds and Sara Stanley added 12 points and led the glass with 11 rebounds. Tamara Torre scored 13 points including 3-for-5 shooting from three-point range.
The Islanders offense came alive from three-point land to start the second half after trailing by 14 at the half, but the Islanders couldn't overcome the Mean Green on the glass and at the line. North Texas shot 62.9 percent from the line (22-35) and outrebounded the Islanders 54-41 and scored 28 points in the paint to the Islanders' 10. The Mean Green capitalized on 23 second chance points.
The Islanders cut the deficit to six with 13:45 to play in the second half off an Anderson-Sparks three-pointer. Amboree scored four points during the run and Huff hit her first three-pointer of the season to get the Islanders within nine.
The Mean Green opened the game with a 9-0 run on 3-of-7 shooting from the field. Junior Alisa Roberts jumper just inside the arc stopped the run and senior Myeisha Myles made layup brought the Islanders within five. The Mean Green answered with a 6-0 run until Anderson-Sparks knocked in one of her two three-pointers of the half.
North Texas extended the lead to 18 with 9:30 to play. The Islanders responded with a 7-0 run that was jumpstarted by Anderson-Sparks' five points and Roberts' jumper to cut the lead to 25-14.
Both team traded buckets back-and-forth until the Islanders cut the lead to 29-19. Amboree hit a three-pointer with 2:25 to play and Jammer made two free throws. Amboree notched her second three-pointer with 36 seconds of the half.

All ventilation systems must be installed in accordance with local codes. Always consult with local code officials and a licensed commercial kitchen ventilation contractor prior to order placement and ventilation.
Mobile Ovens
Not applicable.
Electric Oven
Must be installed under a Type 1 Canopy Hood rated for commercial cooking applications.
Gas Ovens
There are three ventilation options offered subject to your application/installation.
Option 1 - VSP (Ventilation Southern Pride)
Option 2 - Direct vent using mechanical damper and smoke extractor fan.
Option 3 - Canopy hood.
Important VSP Vent Hood Information for Gas smoker Series Ovens
Items to be considered prior to installation of the BBQ Oven and Hood.
- Determine where your new Southern Pride BBQ Oven will be installed; make sure that there will be adequate room around the smoker to maintain the minimum clearance requirements. Refer to the oven specification sheet for these dimensions. Also make sure that the location chosen will allow for a short straight route for the exhaust duct.
- Consult with a ventilation contractor and the local code officials having jurisdiction to determine if there are any special code requirements that need to be addressed. Have the oven specification sheet and these information pages with you, for reference, during the consultation. Note: The hood is UL Listed and it is listed specifically for use with Southern Pride BBQ Ovens. UL file numbers for the oven and the hood are supplied on the hood systems parts page.
- Position the oven and hood assembly so that the exhaust duct run will be as short and straight as possible. A straight duct with no elbows is preferred. Note: Exhaust ducts with more than 1 – 90¬∞ elbow or longer than 10 feet may require a larger exhaust fan and special electrical connections, please consult factory.
- Typically when the installation will be through the wall and the VSP Hood is being used, the hood should be ordered with a rear exhaust port.
- The room the oven and hood will be installed in will need to have an adequate make up air system to handle the additional demand of the VSP hood system. The exhaust fan will pull approximately 1,320 CFM on low speed, while oven is cooking and approximately 2,000 CFM on high speed when the meat doors are open for loading or unloading product. Caution: excessive negative or positive air pressure can have an adverse effect on the performance of the BBQ oven and the hood. Note: The majority of the time the system is in operation the fan will be on low speed, high speed is only used while the meat doors are open for loading and unloading.
- The power connection for the exhaust fan is at the electrical junction box located on the rear of the BBQ oven. The oven supplies power for the exhaust fan, (no additional power supply is required for the exhaust fan.) Note: If an exhaust fan larger than the standard fan is required, the power supply may not be adequate from the BBQ oven and special wiring may be necessary.
- The power outlet for the oven and hood system should have an on-off switch to turn off the hood fan and oven during non use periods. If not, there is no way to turn the hood off and the exhaust fan will run on low even when the oven is in idle or off.
- Caution: If power is turned off to the oven and hood system while there is burning wood in the firebox, smoke could escape into the room. Open firebox door and remove wood and ashes from the firebox prior to powering down the system. Store wood and ashes in a sealed metal container. Close firebox door and open meat doors to evacuate smoke from the oven, once smoke has been evacuated, close meat door and power down the system.

The Council on Aging for Henderson County would like to give a special thank you to all of the businesses who support us by having coin banks at their locations.

Thank you to Denny's, Mountain 1st Bank and Howard's Tax Services for hosting large coin banks. All of the proceeds from the coin banks stay in Henderson County and allow the older adults to continue remaining independent.
Thank you. Council on Aging staff

Note: Cross-posted on my newspaper blog at The Marshall Independent.
There is much talk on the Internet after Liza Long, an English teacher in a small college in Boise, Idaho, and mother of four, wrote a blog post that went viral.
Her post was originally titled "Thinking the Unthinkable." Huffington Post and Gawker, changed the headline to "I am Adam Lanza's mother."
Long has a 13-year-old son, who from her description of his behavior, appears to be a psychopath. She wrote about her heart-rending decision to have him committed to a mental institution after he attacked her, and threatened to kill her and/or himself, more than once.
She's been vilified by some, but there've also been a lot of people writing "That's my brother!" or "That's my son too!"
Me? I think she did the right thing. Actually I think she did the only thing. She's a woman with three other children. She's still able to physically restrain her 13-year-old, at the cost of some bruising, but probably won't be able to in about another year.
Commitment of course, only delays the problem. Some people appear to be born… wrong somehow. Long's son is of the highly intelligent kind, capable of being very charming when not enraged. When he's older he may have learned to control himself to the point he can charm his way out of the institution and then we'll have another predator unleashed on society – a very smart one.
I'm sorry if that sounds uncharitable, but you see I've known such. The brother of an old girlfriend was one. The wife of a cousin was another.
And by the way, I have a close male relative with Asberger's Syndrome, the condition Adam Lanza has been identified as having, and he has never hurt anyone. His life has been made pretty miserable by his social awkwardness, and he's pretty much unemployable because people are uncomfortable around him, but he is NOT a murderous psychopath!
Why are some, thankfully few, born that way? There are arguments over which psychiatric term is appropriate, but the English legal system used to use the term "morally insane," which still seems a pretty good one to me.
Short answer, nobody knows.
Can they be cured?
Even shorter answer, no.
A cop who'd attended FBI courses on this type of personality said there is some indication they tend to grow a conscience around middle age. Unfortunately by that time they're often doing hard time in prison. Which begs the question of whether they have actually developed a conscience – or they've learned how to fool the shrink.
This is the nightmare possibly worse than the families of the victims of Sandy Hook are experiencing now, and for the rest of their lives.
I remember years ago watching a documentary on serial killers, in the course of which they interviewed the mother of one of Ted Bundy's victims.
I'll always remember what she said when they asked her what she thought his parents might be going through.
"I'd rather have my daughter than their son," she said.
P.S. I've written previously on over-diagnoses of "mental illness" here. Note also the cri de coeur from one reader.
I'm also going to go out on a limb and recommend a book I haven't read yet. (I have seen an interview with the author.)
"Evil Genes: Why Rome Fell, Hitler Rose, Enron Failed and My Sister Stole My Mother's Boyfriend" by Barbara Oakley.

The Anti-Capitalist Resistance Comic Book is the second graphic novel from activist Gord Hill. It is a chronicle of several anti-capitalist and anti-globalization movements over the last two decades, from the WTO protests in Seattle to the recent Occupy movements. Hill also places a great deal of emphasis on the violence that has accompanied these movements, regardless of whether that violence was perpetrated by police or protestors.
As a documentary account of these events, The Anti-Capitalist Resistance Comic Book does a passable job. Hill was clearly involved in many of the movements chronicled in the book and is able to (Read more…)
