District court grants dismissal of JBC law suit The hot and stuffy day spent in the U.S. District Court in Helena, June 24, by many Tribal members has proved its worth, July 21, when Judge Charles Lovell handed down his judgement granting the Tribes' motion to dismiss the JBC's injunction on the 1987 Plan of Operations for the Flathead Indian Irrigation Project. The JBC filed the suit June 8, just two months after the BIA submitted their operation plans on April 3. Thp r.p^rotinn plane rrmtainpH tu/n If) m 00 0) o è °? h 0) S 8 o ° si types of procedures, explained Tribal attorney Pat Smith. The first is a proposed minimum instrcam flow to protect the fisheries in the 17 streams on the Reservation affected by the Irrigation Project, including three major streams on the Reservation: Jocko Creek, Post Creek and Mission Creek. The second procedure in the operation plan contains various methods for the operation of the irrigation side of FIIP. (This included environmental and economic assessments for 19 87 operations.) In August of 1986, the JBC succeeded with the injuction against the 1986 Plan of Operations because, says the July 21 judgement, the Court determined "the BIA had failed to give any consideration to the interest of the irrigators in setting the 1986 interim flows. (The Tribes are presently appealing that decision.) "In contrast," says the Court, "the present action -- filed on June 8, 1987 ~ was commenced in the middle of a comment period established by the BIA for public participation on the 1987 plan." The Court also granted the dismissal because, it said, the JBC failed to present its case to the BIA before filing suit. The Court ruled, "The BIA has a significant interest in applying its expertise, in having an opportunity to correct its own errors, and in developing a proper record." And, it said, "The Joint Board has a significant interest in finding adequate redress for Jits grievances." Balancing those interests, the Court concluded that its decision should not be invoked until such time as the BIA enters a decision on the matter. Smith points out that, in the last year, the JBC has filed four separate law suits in the Federal Court against the United States which affected Tribal interests. "What's ironic to the Tribes," says Smith, "is that the JBC's approach on these four lawsuits has been to litigate first, rather than using that as their last resort." Not only did this decision score points for the BIA's position to administer the Irrigation Project, but it also denied the State of Montana the right to intervene on behalf of the JBC. Charmel Telller Char-Koosta News Council acts on Sept. per capita The Tribal Council made it official July 10 that there will be the usual $500 per capita. The checks will be dated for September 3,1987. The amount of payment will be consistent with last year's, $500 for adults and $250 for minor children, with the other half being held in IIM accounts. In order to receive the September per capita, the deadline for enrollment is August 14. Any change of address should be in at that time, also. 2_

Caution, fairness are keys
Published: Saturday, September 7, 2013 at 10:35 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, September 7, 2013 at 10:35 p.m.
In recent days, members of Congress and others have used local appearances to talk about the future of the National Flood Insurance Program.
While insurance might not seem like the most captivating of subjects, this issue is one that will weigh heavily on our immediate futures.
As they are currently set, the "reforms" to the flood insurance program could price many local home and business owners out of the ability to purchase flood insurance and threaten to wipe away much of our real estate value.
FEMA is implementing a system of premiums based entirely on the risk of flooding each property faces. It is doing so as it updates the flood maps that determine those risk factors — maps that many locals argue ignore some of our most important flood protection.
As our congressional delegation works with FEMA to install a more reasonable set of changes, two ideals should carry the day: fairness and caution.
In fairness, the federal government should not change the rules underlying the insurance program midstream.
People who have had flood insurance for years should not be forced into skyrocketing price increases by short-sighted and misguided policies to make the program viable.
If the government makes the program too expensive for the very people who need it most, it will become almost useless.
And worse, because so many people are required to carry flood insurance as conditions of their mortgages, they could be forced out of home ownership.
Worse still, since the next owner would be forced to purchase extremely expensive insurance as well, their homes or businesses could lose much of their value. That is a staggering blow to most people, whose primary long-term investments are in their homes.
It would be unfair to impose these colossal price increases on people who have done nothing more than play by the rules.
So fairness must be a guide.
So too must caution.
Caution will dictate that any approach to flood insurance use a strategy of imposing necessary change in a deliberate fashion that allows the people most affected by it to adapt to the change as it happens.
Instead of imposing across-the-board, wildly disruptive change, the plan must consider the lives and livelihoods of those it could hurt.
Change to the present system may be necessary for the flood insurance program to maintain its long-term ability to protect people's homes and businesses. Destroying the value of those assets, though, would defeat the purpose of the program.
Clearly, the current changes must be put on hold and rethought with coastal residents throughout the nation in mind. Fairness and caution must take a prominent role in any future planning.

Children dressed as their favorite super-hero or princess posed for pictures with teen-aged princesses and Santa Claus on Saturday, Dec. 8, at the Hannibal Arts Council during the Families and Communities Together (FACT) Christmas Princess and Super-Hero Tea Party.
The youngest child was 1-week-old William Zanger, accompanied by his mother, Katherine Zanger, and 2-year-old brother, Dominic, who slept through the party.
In addition to posing for pictures, the children made artistic crafts and were served healthful treats by FACT personnel and volunteers.
Some of the foods may later be featured in FACT cooking classes for families, according to Sandy Caswell, FACT assistant director.
"Hannibal Clinic Health Services gave us a grant, and we will be doing healthy cooking classes for families," Caswell said. Details about this program will be announced later and posted on mcfact.org on the Facebook page.
Among the healthful treats served at the tea was a "banana split bite" made of a piece of banana dipped in chocolate, with other flavors added. Grapes on a stick also proved popular.
The boys present were superheroes such as "Superman" 1-year-old Landon Nielsen; "Spiderman" Caleb Hammontree, 3; and "Batman" Brayden Edwards, 4.
Many little girls were dressed as Cinderella, Snow White or another fairy tale princess, such as 3-year-old "Cinderella" Kennedi Roe, who had especially enjoyed seeing the older princesses and posing for pictures with them.
Another 3-year-old princess, Grace LaFond, was so excited she was jumping up and down.
The teen-aged princesses she was excited to meet were "Belle" Rachel Davis, "Cinderella" Morgan Bross; "Ariel" Julie Colborn and "Snow White" Erin Sublette.

America's 11 Best-Looking Cities
People with healthy skin, beautiful hair and clear complexions flock to these U.S. towns. Did yours make the list?
To get to the root of our little investigation of which city in the U.S. boasts the prettiest people, we scoured umpteen surveys and articles on the subject, then looked up the hometowns of People's "Most Beautiful 2015" (the authority, naturally). From Hawaii to Maine, we counted how many gorgeous celebs came from or gravitated to certain cities, then considered stats on fitness, diet and beauty-related industries -- if only to evaluate how obsessed the locals are with achieving some gold standard of "beauty." (We deserve an A for effort, don't you think?)
Now ... was our method scientific? Er, not completely. But that didn't stop us from obsessing over the data. Plus, we learned some fun things along the way, like where to go if you want to increase your chances of snagging a hot, brainy or even funny man. Or where not to go if you want to avoid losing your natural beauty to stress.
So, without further ado, check out the list of the prettiest cities to see if your hometown made the grade, and if not, start planning your next people-watching vacation!

I will say this I have lived in 8 different states and traveled to almost all the continental US and would not attribute a city's attractiveness to a handful actors or models. I think of it more like this; If you are "any place" in the respective metro areas how attractive are the people around you. My ranking would be as follows: 1) Miami 2) Salt Lake City (if you like the tall gorgeous perfect body blondes) Some don't that's why Miami is #1 3) Portland OR. Hands Down Top 3 are distant to the rest. The top 3 are so distant compared to the rest the bottom of the list is not worth mentioning because NYC is not the next best thing to Portland OR. 4) New York City 5) FT Lauderdale 6) Anywhere Colorado (Men) LA and the metro area are not note worthy neither are the folks in Chicago, nor Dallas or so on. So I didn't forget them they are just not that attractive, sorry.

Let me just say up front that there is nothing nutritionally redeeming about this cake. This is just pure dessert, plain and simple. Today is Mothers' Day (go phone your Mom right now if you forgot) and I know that there is nothing Vegan Mom likes more than a good dessert. And, it just so happened that the grocery store had reduced its price on dairy-free ice cream (which probably means they are discontinuing it). Who was I to deny this aligning of the stars? I knew I had to make an ice cream cake or face the wrath of the dessert gods.
- 1 9 x 5 non stick metal loaf pan
- 1 946 ml So Good vanilla ice cream (or whatever brand suits your fancy)
- 1 chocolate Tofutti Cutie, diced
- 1 vanilla Tofutti Cutie, diced
- vegan caramel sauce
- 1 pint Tofutti Chocolate Cookie Crunch ice cream (or your preference)
- chocolate pudding filling (recipe follows)
- 5 tbsp margarine, melted
- 1 1/3 cups Oreo baking crumbs
Make sure you have a good freezer so that this cake will harden. I suggest cranking the freezer up to max before starting.
1. Make sure vanilla ice cream is softened, but not melted. Press vanilla ice cream into the loaf pan (fingers work best, so make sure your hands are clean). Ice cream should be about 1/2 inch thick on bottom and sides of pan. Leave about a 3/4 inch space clear to the top of the pan. Stick pan in freezer to let ice cream firm up.
2. Remove pan from freezer. Place chopped cuties into the pan and fill spaces around the chopped bits with caramel sauce. Use a silicon spatula to smooth everything flat. Return to freezer to firm up.
3. Put chocolate ice cream on top of cutie-caramel layer, leaving a trench in the middle for the chocolate pudding filling. Fill trench with cooled pudding. By now, the chocolate pudding and ice cream should be flush with the vanilla ice cream. Return to freezer to let firm up.
4. Mix Oreo crumbs with melted margarine. Press firmly onto the ice cream, covering everything. Cover pan with foil and return to freezer for at least an hour.
5. When it is time to serve the cake, run a knife along the sides of the pan to detach the cookie layer from the pan (i.e. don't loosen the whole side). Place the pan in warm water for a few seconds. Put a cutting board on the top of the pan and flip pan upside down. Give a few good shakes to loosen cake (put back in water if it won't release). The cookie layer should now be on the bottom. Return to freezer to firm up. Slice and serve!
Chocolate Pudding Filling
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/2 cup + 1 tbsp soy milk
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup vegan chocolate chips
1. Whisk cocoa powder and cornstarch powder together in a saucepan. Whisk in soy milk then cook over medium heat until bubbling and thick, stirring constantly with a spoon. Remove from heat and stir in chocolate chips until melted. Place in fridge to cool down.
This would also make a good pudding to eat as actual pudding. Double the recipe and stir in a tbsp of margarine and tsp of vanilla in at the end.
UPDATE: Here is the cake after a night in the freezer. You can see each layer a bit better and everything has firmed up nicely. Probably not a bad idea to make this the day before you want to serve it.

BTW So Good ice cream and soymilk is produced using Solae (a modified GMO soy product from Dupont and Bunge corporation). Soale is used in So Good products as well as many Yves products (they usually even have a solae logo on the back of them). Stay away from them if you don't want to eat frankenfood.

I don't know if it's available anywhere outside of the downtown Vancouver - haven't seen it elsewhere but Mario's Gelati has a vegan version and it's good, really good, like I would serve to non-vegan good, and it doesn't have the nasty aftertaste.
Btw - WOW, I will so be making this for my birthday.

According to the So Good website:
"So Good is made from non-genetically modified soy protein by Identity Preservation. What this means is that a monitoring system has been put in place which controls each step of the manufacturing process -- from seed selection to planting and harvesting, transportation and processing -- to ensure no genetically modified soybeans enter the supply stream at any time."
I sent them an email for clarification and will post their response.
I also found this, if you are concerned about Solae--it is a list if products that use Solae. So Good milk is on it, but not the ice cream.

OK, so So Good emailed me back. They repeated exactly what is on the website (I posted that in a previous comment), plus this extra tidbit: "So Nice is certified Organic by QAI (Quality Assurance International), who do not certify anything that is genetically modified, that is your assurance."
I also can't find anything saying the Solae is actually genetically modified. You will note on the list of products that use Solae, Mori-Nu tofu is on there. But, Mori-Nu also appears on a list by True Foods saying it has non-GMO in it.

Hey Vegan Dad,
You are a pretty amazing Dad. Just found your blog, it's fantastic. Printing off several of your recipes. Just wondering, you mention you are from Northern Ontario, where are you located? I have a hard time shopping as I live in Elliot Lake, Ont. I bet it's small then where you live. Any shopping tips you have would be great. Maybe a post?? I have to do a lot of shopping out of town.

Hi, North of 17!
I do my shopping at No Frills, Sobey's, and Bulk Barn (or Bins and Bins). I am not sure if I have any great tips to share, especially since you live in a much smaller town than I. But, here goes anyway.
1. If you have some land, start growing your own veggies this summer. It is cheap, tastes great, can be organic, and a lot of fun.
2. The essentials: supply of fresh veggies, tofu, beans, lentils (and good spices). Vegan food does not have to be complicated. Stick with ethnic dishes (Indian, Ethiopian) that are relatively simple and are packed with nutrition.
3. Realize that you don't need fancy vegan substitutes (meat, sour cream, mayo, etc.). They are really expensive here, you can often make your own. They are nice to have, don't get me wrong, but they aren't essential.
4. Do the best you can. It is next to impossible to get a margarine here that is whey-free (and, I am willing to bet, impossible in Elliot Lake). Just do what you can do.
5. Pester your local grocer for more vegan products. It never hurts to ask.
I don't know if this helps or not.

i made this last night for my husband's birthday tonight and i think it's gonna be good but i was a bit thrown by "2 tbsp cup cocoa powder"! i went with 2/3 cup for some reason and that was definitely too much, but i improvised and ended up with some pretty good pudding.
also, this is about the caramel sauce: it might not matter if you use salted earth balance but i used unsalted margarine and i really needed to add a pinch of salt. that might be worth noting!
i love this blog by the way! i'm forever printing things out and trying them.

Obamas Hold Low-Key Super Bowl Party
When he came into office in 2009, President Barack Obama saw the Super Bowl as a chance to ease partisan tensions in Washington. For the big game that year between the Steelers and the Cardinals, the president hosted a large Super Bowl party that included 15 senators and congressmen, Republicans and Democrats alike.
At the time, a White House spokesman portrayed the guest list as part of a strategic effort to reach across the aisle.
The president, former White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said at the time, believed that time spent with Republicans "is a worthy investment of his time."
These days? Maybe not so much.
Before the Ravens and 49ers took the field Sunday, the White House put out a statement that the Obamas were hosting "a personal party for friends and family … ."
The guest list wasn't disclosed. But it doesn't look like congressional Republicans were sharing Chesapeake Crab Cakes and San Francisco Cioppino Stew with the first family.
House Speaker John Boehner's office's said he wasn't invited to the Super Bowl viewing party, nor was Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R., Va.). Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky didn't snag an invitation, either.
We also checked with the senators from the teams' homes states — California and Maryland. None was at the White House on Sunday. The senior senator from California, Democrat Dianne Feinstein, was "rooting for 49ers from San Fran …" an aide said. Sen. Barbara Boxer was also watching the game from California, a spokesman said.
Maryland senators Barbara Mikulski and Ben Cardin, both Democrats, were in Baltimore on Sunday.
At the White House, quiet Super Bowl parties seem to be the new norm.
In 2010 and 2011, the Obamas also invited lawmakers to the White House Super Bowl Party. But the tradition stopped last year. Before the Super Bowl in 2012, First Lady Michelle Obama told Rachael Ray in an interview, "It'll probably be a quiet Super Bowl this year."
Is this a lost opportunity? Mr. Obama has lots of business with Capitol Hill: gun control, immigration and the budget. Even prominent Democrats believe Mr. Obama needs to spend more time talking to lawmakers informally: more casual breakfasts, golf outings and phone calls. It's a way to build trust.
At a news conference last month, Mr. Obama was asked about criticism that he doesn't spend enough time socializing.
"I think there are a lot of Republicans at this point that feel that given how much energy has been devoted in some of the media that's preferred by Republican constituencies to demonize me, that it doesn't look real good socializing with me," the president said.

CASTRO VALLEY -- In a move that has been scripted down to the minute, Eden Medical Center doctors and staff members will transfer 60 to 65 patients from the old hospital to the new one on Saturday.
The carefully choreographed move comes after 28 "move school" classes and a dress rehearsal Wednesday, when volunteers filled in for patients, said Carolyn Kemp, Sutter Health spokeswoman.
On Saturday, the actual patients will be transported one at a time by wheelchair, gurney or bed. "It takes about 10 to 15 minutes to move each patient," Kemp said. "It's not like you open the door and roll out 30 gurneys."
Eden Medical postponed elective surgeries to reduce the number of patients that will need to be transferred.
"A team of three will move with the patient down the elevator, through the emergency room of the old hospital and then 150 feet from the old building into the lobby of the new hospital," Kemp said. From there, the patients will be taken to their new rooms. A command center will be set up to monitor the moves.
Rain is in the forecast for Saturday, but that possibility was included in the plans -- the walkway will be tented to protect patients from the weather.
The hospital is the first new one in southern Alameda County in decades -- most were built in the 1950s and '60s. Sutter Health, which purchased Eden Medical Center from the Eden Township Healthcare District in 1998, is footing the bill for the new $320 million hospital built by DPR Construction.
The hospital on Lake Chabot Road was rebuilt in response to California's seismic safety law, which requires all state hospitals to meet new building standards by Jan. 1.
All of the 130 patient rooms in the new hospital are private and have a sleeper-sofa or recliner so that a family member can stay with the patient.
As soon as patients are out of the old hospital, equipment will be readied to be shipped to other Sutter Medical hospitals and other area hospitals and clinics. After any hazardous material is removed, the building will be deconstructed starting in early 2013. More than 90 percent of the materials will be recycled.
"People have asked, but we can't blow up the old building," Kemp said. "It's too close to the new hospital."

Good morning and welcome to Summit Up, the world's only daily column that wants to know if anyone else would be interested in having a woolly mammoth for a pet.
Apparently, some biologists have been busy lately and are now announcing the latest trend to sweep through the lab - de-extinction. At a recent convention in Washington, D.C., scientists discussed the possibility of bringing various extinct species back to life, including the North American passenger pigeon, the Tasmanian tiger and yes, that's right, woolly mammoths.
The question that's on our minds is, did these guys never watch "Jurassic Park" ? It was that movie in t he early 90s when Jeff Goldblum and Newman from "Seinfeld" created an island utopia filled with dinosaurs and then were promptly chased, hunted and devoured. Something like that. It's been a while.
Anyway, the point was that you shouldn't mess with nature. Also, you shouldn't wander around a dinosaur preserve in a storm when the electric fence power might go out, or split up the group or have only one means of escape from an island. That movie had a lot of lessons.
Moral quandry and possibility of being messily devoured aside, we suppose it might be kinda cool to have a woolly mammoth for a pet. We imagine they will quickly become the latest vogue pets for celebrities and likely soon have miniature variations that fashionistas can carry around in their purses. Eventually they'll start their own version of the Westminster dog show and start to trace their lineages back to various frozen carcasses in northern Siberia. Who knows, mabe the next presidential inauguration will include a salute from a line of woolly mammoths. It will certainly be a sight to see from the back of our pet pteradactyl. We're going to name him Pete.

Scripture: Exodus 35:5 NIV From what you have, take an offering for the LORD. Everyone who is willing is to bring to the LORD an offering of gold, silver and bronze;
Observation: When the Israelites left Egypt, the Egyptians were so glad to see them leave they gave them anything they requested. They carried out the wealth of Egypt. Now God is requesting an offering of items to be used in building the tabernacle. Five times in this chapter and several times in the next chapter one reads that God wants the giver to be willing. God is blest when people give willingly. God is so worthy that people who serve him should serve him willingly. God so loves that he can only be pleased when people give willingly. People can only give what God first gave them. God can see himself in people who give willingly.
Application: In serving the Lord, how is just as important as what. How I serve the Lord demonstrates how worthy I believe He is. How I serve the Lord demonstrates how much I want to please Him.
Prayer: Lord, may you enjoy my service and my giving. Amen
Pastor Leon
Making friends for time and eternity!

First United Methodist holds annual Cross Walk
Published: Friday, March 29, 2013 at 2:57 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 29, 2013 at 2:57 p.m.
On Friday morning, members of First United Methodist Church walked a wooden cross down Main Street to honor the anniversary of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.
A devotion was held before the silent cross walk past local businesses and traffic. The procession had an escort from the Hendersonville Police Department leading the way and trailing.
First United Methodist Church, at the corner of Sixth Avenue and Church Street in Hendersonville, organizes the event every year. Hot beverages and cross buns are served after the walk.

it would be a good idea if you ask questions that were not slanted to a specific out come, if you are going to ask this question ask the national association of letter carriers,your prospective is totally negative, know before you ask

Will the U.S. Postal Service's proposed cost-cutting measures solve its fiscal problems?
9 Comments
Close all small rual post offices and consoladate them into a region and have there mail delivered as rr. contract with a local store to handle outgoing packages and sell stamps, contract with fedx and ups for pu and delivery to regional post office, and drop off rr carrier mail at pu site that would be pre sorted a regional site.
I don't understand why the government requires the post office to over fund pensions when it doesn't seem to be necessary
If congress would return the billions of dollars the usps would be solvent for years to come what other corp has to prefund there employes health benefits to the tune of 5 billion a year
As long as Congress continues the law that the lame duck Republican Congress past in 1996 requiring the Postal Service to Fund Retirement and Pension benefits for the next 75 years in a 10 year window (9 Billion this year taken from their budget), the Postal Service will never get out from under. Is IBM run like that? Microsoft? No, it's a business killer and that is the objective. Privatizing the Postal Service and giving it to UPS or Fedex (3 guesses which party they both donate heavily to), which, by the way, do not deliver to 20% of the country. That 20% is picked up by the USPS. If their gone, what then?
In view of the fact that there are no absolutes, no consistent guarantees in life (including in government), this question I believe can best be summarized and answered in one word by saying "perhaps."
Your poll about Post Office is bogus. It does not explain that the P.O. is required to pre-pay their retirement account which causes financil troubles. No other company or government entity has to do this.Diliberatley closing offices and services will only destroy any hope for continued postal service.
The Post Office management continues to say they have too many people and are treating their problem as if it is a labor problem. It is not a labor problem.
They have not figured out how to deal with email, and when they figure that out they will discover they have too many trucks.
Mail moves from a Post Office to a processing center, to another processing center, to another Post Office, then distributed locally. If they could manage to get rid of the first two trucks (PO to processing center to processing center) they solve the largest part of their problem.
If they had a way to electronically route the majority of the first class mail, bills, notices, and other non-personal mail to the destination, then print and distribute it, they might stand a chance. Until they move the business model into this century they have no hope, and will eventually go under, at which point it will become privatized anyway.
The technology exists to do this today, which is how businesses are managing to spend less than a few pennys to get their bills to the customers by using email and the web, instead of spending about $0.50 to print the bill, stuff the envelope, sort the mail, deliver to the Post Office, and finally pay $0.44 in postage to have it delivered.
Adapt or else.
If the Post Office is privatized, will the private vendors be required to meet the same standards as the USPS?

PARKERSBURG - More than 200 people turned out Saturday night for a night of '60s music at the City Park Pavilion in support of a local couple dealing with medical issues.
Several local bands, including Plan B, Britain, Hope, Band of Brothers and Work in Progress, joined together in support of Rick and Debbie Budgett of Parkersburg.
John Gallagher, the event's chairman and a local musician, said Rick Budgett is suffering from eosinophilic pneumonia, a life-threatening disease, while his wife, Debbie Budgett, is recovering from a spinal cord injury, a fractured neck and broken back suffered in a traffic accident nearly two months ago.

Gallagher said the couple had been getting along - with a lot of hard work - when Debbie Budgett's accident and injuries set them back, so he and some others decided to help the couple out.
Like Gallagher, Rick Budgett has been a local musician for years, with the two playing together in Britain. The group was active in the local scene years ago and still plays together every couple of years for events like Saturday's fundraiser, although usually with less of a personal connection, Gallagher said.
"Everyone knows him and this was a way to help out," he said of Rick Budgett, who was on stage with Britain for the opening of Saturday night's show.
The fundraiser ran from 6-10 p.m. Saturday, filling the pavilion with the sounds of the 1960s. Plan B and the other bands played songs from the Beatles, The Byrds, Crosby, Stills and Nash, the Zombies and some Motown groups.
Gallagher said there was no admission charge, with the money raised coming from drawings and concession sales. The donations will aid the Budgetts with medical and living expenses, he said.
The final amount raised was not known this weekend, but Gallagher said he was pleased with the turnout by the bands and by the people who came to hear music and support the couple with a helping hand in their time of need.
Rick Budgett said he was surprised and pleased with the event's turnout on Saturday night, due to the cold weather and the timing just after the Thanksgiving holiday.
"I would just like to thank everyone involved and we appreciate all of the support they showed," he said of Saturday's event.

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) - A man says he was walking through a shopping center parking lot when two men came out from the behind a coffee shop asking for a dollar. When it was all over, though, he says they got away with a lot more.
"I don't know why someone would want to do that to people. I needed that money. I mean, desperately, I needed it bad," said Tim Scenters.
Scenters says he had just received a family inheritance of several thousand dollars and was on his way to get some insurance for his truck. He says a friend dropped him off in the parking lot across New Circle Road from the insurance agency and as he was walking that direction, two men came out from behind a coffee shop asking for a dollar.
"One gentleman grabbed me by my arm and said, 'Hey wait a minute'. I said, 'Come on, guys. I can't help you,' He put his hand out like that and said, 'Give us your money,'," he said.
He says the two men took off running across New Circle Road. Police searched the area for anyone matching their description, but couldn't find anyone. Scenters says the men had an odd message for him as they got away.
"He told me to have a nice day. I said, 'Yeah, you too. I hope you choke on it,'," said Scenters.
Police went to several of the businesses in the area to see if any of them had captured the incident on surveillance video, but hadn't had any luck. They say they're looking for two white men between 17 and 20, one wearing a black hooded jacket and jeans. They say the other was wearing a black jacket with red sleeves and tan pants.

It's worth mentioning that Netbeans supports both standard Ruby and JRuby. I would highly recommend it if you are thinking about JRuby and/or JRuby on Rails. It is less useful for mainstream Rails and Ruby development, though, since the Rails integration is a version behind the official Rails release and it does not support Git, newgem, and other common tools.
In my opinion, this is the best IDE for OS X. Way better and easier than Xcode, with better code highlighting and completion. :]

Uhh.. NetBeans IS FOR BUILDING applications, Java applications. Real world Java professionals like myself use it regularly. I still use Eclipse for about half my work, switching between the two depending on what I'm doing. NetBeans has vastly superior application server integration and Java EE 5 support, the web-services tools are very good. If I had to pick one feature that puts NetBeans way ahead of Eclipse, its the profiler, very powerful tool.
Hey.. diggin_it, if you want a stand-alone compiler get the JDK from Sun, it comes with javac.. or are you trying to say something else?
Tried it in an attempt to get away from using Eclipse in my classes, and I liked it. The visual GUI building aspect is vastly superior, and much faster, but it likes to use its own Netbeans classes a lot.
Give it a try, you may switch to it. It's a really nice IDE to use, and overall just a well developed app.
i think the interface is totally different from aptana.
In my opinion is netbeans is perfect for building applications, because netbeans runs on linux too, so i can develop on all of my computers not on the mac only.
And XCode is in my opinion for developing anything expect java.

- Tax Chart: What would you pay? (PDF - 9kb)
School tax hike could be costly for homeowners
Published: Saturday, March 23, 2013 at 9:35 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, March 25, 2013 at 8:39 a.m.
Willie St. Pierre is mulling over some of the same questions all Terrebonne Parish voters must ponder between now and May 4.
On one hand, the local school district spends less per student than any other in the state. But approving the request would give the district the largest single property tax in the parish, and critics say there aren't enough specifics on how the money would be spent.
"If the money goes in the right direction, and they do what needs to be done with it, a little bit of money toward improving education and improving people's lives is a small amount to pay," said St. Pierre, a Summerfield subdivision resident who would see his own tax bill go up about $550 a year.
"But to me, there are generalities. It is not clear to me how the money is going to be spent," he said.
Quadrupling the tax
Voters are being asked to increase the property tax schools collect from 9.27 mills to 40.27 mills, or about four times more.
A mill is a $1 tax on every $1,000 of a property's assessed value. In Louisiana, the first $75,000 of a home's value is exempt from taxes.
"When we tax, we tax it to the assessed value, which is usually a little below the fair market value," Terrebonne Parish Tax Assessor Lonny Grabert said.
The owner of a $150,000 home — the value of residential property owned by the average taxpayer in Terrebonne — will pay $232 more a year if the tax increase passes. That same homeowner is paying about $70 annually now.
The increase would be the largest single tax on the books, Grabert said.
The sanitation tax, at 11 mills, is currently the highest parishwide tax.
There are 17 parishwide taxes levied on homeowners. Those currently total 67.05 mills. If the school tax hike passes, it would go to 98.05 mills.
That total does not include community-specific taxes, like neighborhood fire departments or recreation departments.
The average Terrebonne taxpayer currently pays about 98 mills total.
Businesses would pay bulk
Of the $25 million the tax would raise annually for the school district, less than 20 percent would come from residential taxes, according to information provided by Grabert.
The rest would come from commercial assessments, which are taxed at a higher rate. An upcoming story will detail the cost to local businesses,
About 40 percent of the parish's residential property owners pay no property taxes because their property is valued at less than $75,000, Grabert said, making it exempt.
Three-thousand or so residents who had frozen their tax assessment would see increased taxes if the measure passes, according to Evelyn Pellegrin with the Assessor's Office. The freeze, she said, only applies to property value, not the tax rate.
The school district also gets money from a 2-cent sales tax, which generates about $45 million a year.
No clear plan?
"It will be a hardship for the family," said Houma resident Nancy Young. "It is going to be tough to come up with the extra money when everything else is going up too."
Young said she is torn between the need to improve schools and what she says is a lack of specificity in the plan.
Terrebonne Parish Schools Superintendent Phillip Martin said the parish has a thorough spending plan mapped out — a two-page document posted on its website that details spending priorities.
"At the top it says that this is just an idea of what they are going to do," Young said of that document. "In the past we have allowed too much playing around with money instead of designating it for very specific purposes."
The plan on the board's website includes a note that says "these plans are presented as a starting point of priority issues and are not intended to be all-inclusive."
On Friday, the Houma-Terrebonne Chamber of Commerce came out against the tax request, also citing a lack of specificity in the district's plan.
The plan and the ballot proposition itself dictate that a third of the money must be spent on construction and renovations. The rest will be spent on salaries and educational programming, Martin said.
"I can't describe what color the brick will be. When they say we are going to build a new school and where it is going to be built, that is detailed in my mind," Martin said.
Martin also noted that costs of renovations and construction are not included in the written plan, but he says they have been thoroughly discussed by officials.

SEATTLE -- The ground-and-pound approach that powered Stanford to the Pac-12 title and Rose Bowl victory last year has been tweaked.
The offense now includes a bit of slice-and-dice.
The sleeker model was on display Saturday night in a 55-17 victory over Washington State at CenturyLink Field as quarterback Kevin Hogan completed three long touchdown passes against a Cougars defense stacked to stop the Cardinal running game.
Hogan hit receiver Devon Cajuste for scoring strikes of 57 and 33 yards in the first half and receiver Michael Rector for a 45-yard touchdown in the third quarter.
Although aesthetically pleasing, the change isn't for show. It's for survival in the race for the conference and national titles.
"It's what we have to be able to do," coach David Shaw said. "We have to show people we'll go downtown if they leave us one-on-one. We'll make the defense choose."
The fifth-ranked Cardinal (4-0, 2-0 Pac-12) no longer has elite tight ends like Zach Ertz and Levine Toilolo, whose ability to make short- and middle-distance catches -- in combination with the power running game -- allowed Stanford to move methodically down the field.
The void has been filled by speedy receivers, including Rector, the 6-foot-4 Cajuste, Kelsey Young and Ty Montgomery. The quartet caught 13 passes Saturday and averaged 22.9 yards per reception.
"This was a big game for us," Rector said of the up-and-coming generation of wideouts. "We take it personally."
Now they must replicate the success against the top teams in the conference. Stanford's next five opponents (Washington, Utah, UCLA, Oregon State and Oregon) have a combined record of 18-2.
"They're a very mature team," WSU coach Mike Leach said. "They have the discipline to stay in and do their thing. They outlast you. At times our technique would break down and they'd capitalize on it. You have to play extremely sharp for an extended period with them."

Cacares suspended for marijuna; Fukuda also test positive
All 22 fighters on the UFC® on FUEL TV 8 card were drug tested at the event and all fighters passed their drug tests with the exception of Alex Caceres and Riki Fukuda.
Caceres tested positive for marijuana metabolites following his bout. He has agreed to attend drug rehabilitation classes and will receive a 6-month suspension retroactive to the date of the event and must pass a drug test upon completion of the suspension before receiving clearance to compete again. The outcome of Caceres bout against Kyung Ho Kang will be changed to a no contest.

A group of 30 young adults ages 19-25 are peddling from Providence, Rhode Island to San Francisco, California, a total of approximately 4,000 miles raising awareness for affordable housing. The Bike & Build group had a build day in Springfield, IL. They stayed in Hannibal, MO on Saturday night and peddled into Moberly Sunday afternoon. Their destination: First Christian Church, 300 E. Coates, Jay Self, Pastor. This is the third year First Christian Church has hosted lodging and meals for Bike & Build young adults.
As the Bike & Build group began to arrive on their bikes, a group of church volunteers began to prepare food for their evening meal. Volunteers transported the young adults to the Randolph Area YMCA where they were able to shower and use the pool for a short while before returning to the church for dinner.
In just a short while the young adults had made lasting impressions on the volunteers as each are unique individuals sharing their stories and experiences.
Usually up by 5 a.m. the group will begin their morning with a hearty breakfast and are out early to beat the heat although at one point temperatures hit 118 degrees! They will take frequent stops, drink plenty to stay hydrated, and have even hosed off to cool down.
First Christian Church volunteers provided breakfast in Moberly before the Bike & Build group took off shortly after 7 p.m. Their next build destination is in Kansas.
Chris Defiove, 25, of Hershey, Pennsylvania, is serving as one of four leaders for the Bike & Build group. Chris' heart is in outdoor adventures beginning early in his life as a Boy Scout. Serving as a leader in the Bike & Build program is very satisfying, "I am helping guide this experience. It 's rewarding to see these individuals come together as a team and do something great for others." He shared that each individual on the trip must complete 500 miles of training and at one point complete a 60-mile stretch at once. All carry cell phones and a support vehicle accompanies the team on the trip. For safety two leaders bring up the end of the group.
Chris Defiove will be returning to college to complete a degree in "Environmental Education."
Ashley Trocle, 23, of New Jersey, believes, "Pushing yourself, makes you stronger." Affordable housing is an import issue. Each individual on the Bike & Build team had to raise $4,500 just to participate. They do drywall, raking, take inventory, whatever needs to be done at the 11 job sites they are scheduled to work.
"People have been so generous to provide food and lodging," says Ashley, "It restores your faith in humanity." Ashley is a Bio Engineering student and her desire is to become a doctor.
Ashley says they average peddling 71 miles per day, but the longest stretch was 117 miles!
Page 2 of 2 - How do people find out about Bike & Build? Ashley knew people that had done it before. All in her group were newcomers to Bike & Build. To learn more about Bike & Build check them out on Facebook, Twitter, or YouTube.

Hi Frank123,
I found the problem: I activated the switch in MEncoder to use TSMuxer if the source file is PS3 H.264 compatible. Now I am only dealing with the "stuttering" issue. This makes me wonder because my NetTV can handle H.264 via DLNA by native and I do not no what is causing such a high CPU load then? - Additionally my TV restarts every tie when I stop the playback of HD material via DLNA.
I will try to open a case for this at Philips. Let's see what they are saying.
Thanks for your help and your explanation,

Coach John Cooprider's Bulldogs got off to a rocky start in last Friday night's game, as the Willows Honkers toppled the Gridley High School football team in their home opener 38-8.
In the first quarter of play, Willows junior kicker Daniel Macias started the scoring for the Honkers with a 28 yard field goal.
With 4:05 left in the first quarter on their own 26 yard line, the Bulldogs punted the ball to the Honkers' Chris Walters who took off up the sideline virtually untouched, as his blockers placed a number of Bulldogs on their backs.
Again, this time in the second quarter, on their own 20 yard line Gridley senior Mat Scott punted the ball to Walters who took the ball 60 yards for another score.
At the end of the half, senior quarterback Ulises Esparza connected with Walters for a 25 yard touchdown pass.
The Bulldogs looked like they would redeem the 24 unanswered points when junior quarterback Emery Haddy completed a 33 yard pass to junior Shobi Khan, who danced with defenders before being taken down after the buzzer.
Cooprider's halftime speech may have lit a fire under the Bulldogs' defense, if for only a moment, as they held the Honkers from scoring during the third quarter of play.
In the 4th quarter, Haddy and the Bulldogs' offense drove the ball to the Honkers' 3-yard line. Finally on 4th down, Mat Scott punched the ball in for a 2-yard score with 9:14 left. Haddy connected with Khan for the 2-point conversion.
However, the Honkers immediately fired back when Noah Enns ran past defenders for a 32-yard score. Macias' PAT was good.
The Honkers drove the ball into the red-zone again with three minutes to go in the game. Junior fullback completed the Honkers' scoring on a 3-yard run. Macias' PAT again successful.
Missed tackles and not wrapping up seemed to be the major issue in last Friday's games, as the Bulldogs allowed the Honkers to rack up 247 rushing yards.
Special teams also seemed to be an area of concern. Willows special teams scored over half of their points.
The Honkers #3—ironically the same number this former Honker wore, although I was at Yuba City—Chris Walters led Willows in scoring with three touchdowns, two on punt returns. For the rest of this story, please pick up a 9/7/12 edition of The Gridley Herald.

UNDATED (AP) -- If the San Francisco 49ers have a quarterback controversy, they'll take it. Colin Kaepernick (KA'-pur-nihk) improved to 2-0 in relief of Alex Smith by guiding the Niners past New Orleans 31-21. Kaepernick completed 16 of 25 for 231 yards and a TD. He also ran for 27 yards.
Ahmad Brooks and Donte Whitner returned interceptions for touchdowns, the 49ers sacked Drew Brees five times as the Saints' three-game winning streak ended. New Orleans is 5-6. The Niners improved to 8-2-1.
The Baltimore Ravens rallied from a 13-3 deficit midway through the fourth quarter to beat San Diego 16-3 on Justin Tucker's 38-yard field goal with 1:07 left in overtime. The big play came when the Ravens converted on fourth-and-29 from their 37 when Ray Rice caught a short pass from Joe Flacco and weaved through the defense to the San Diego 33 with 1:37 to play. After a review, the ball was moved back to the 34 and the refs measured. The new spot gave the Ravens a first down by the length of the ball.
Baltimore has a three-game lead atop AFC North with a 9-2 mark. San Diego fell to 4-7.
No NFL rookie since 1960 and no Rams rookie ever accomplished what cornerback Janoris Jenkins did on Sunday.
The second-round draft pick with off-the-field issues through his college career returned two interceptions for touchdowns and St. Louis dominated the second half to hand the Arizona Cardinals their seventh loss in a row, 31-17 on Sunday.
Arizona rookie Ryan Lindley was intercepted four times in his first NFL start. The Cardinals are 4-7 following their 4-0 start.
The Atlanta Falcons needed another fourth-quarter comeback to run their record to an NFC-best 10-1.
Michael Turner ran for a pair of touchdowns, including a go-ahead, three-yard burst with 7:55 remaining to help the Falcons beat Tampa Bay 24-23.
Matt Ryan threw for 353 yards and overcame two critical turnovers by leading another late touchdown drive. Ryan teamed with Julio Jones on an 80-yard TD midway to put Atlanta ahead 17-13 midway through the third quarter. But the Bucs regained the lead on Doug Martin's second one-yard touchdown of the game before Ryan's fumble set up a field goal with 10:28 remaining.
Martin was held to 50 yards on 21 carries as the Buccaneers ended a four-game winning streak and dropped to 6-5.
Jay Cutler was back under center for the Chicago Bears after a one-game absence due to a concussion. Cutler threw for 188 yards and a touchdown as the Bears clobbered Minnesota 28-10. Brandon Marshall caught 18 passes for 108 yards and became the first Bears receiver since Marty Booker in 2002 to go over 1,000 yards.
Henry Melton sacked Christian Ponder on the first play from scrimmage, Nick Roach forced a fumble to set up Chicago's first TD, Chris Conte's 35-yard interception return set up another touchdown and Julius Peppers blocked a field goal. The defensive gems helped the 8-3 Bears temporarily move a half-game ahead of Green Bay for the NFC North lead, pending the outcome of the Packers' game at the New York Giants later today.
Ponder was 22-of-43 for 159 yards and a touchdown as the Vikings fell two games off the NFC North lead.
Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos picked up their sixth straight victory with a 17-9 win at Kansas City. Manning threw for 285 yards and two touchdowns while the Broncos kept the Chiefs out of the end zone. Jacob Tamme and Demaryius Thomas each had touchdown catches for the 8-3 Broncos. Knowshon Moreno added 85 yards rushing in place of Willie McGahee (mih-GAY'-hee), who went on injured reserve last week with a knee injury.
The Chiefs fell to 1-10 despite Jamaal Charles, who rushed for 107 yards.
Manning's old team is 7-4. T.Y. Hilton became the first player in Colts history to score touchdowns on a reception and a kick return in the same game, leading Indianapolis to a 20-13 win over Buffalo. Hilton put the Colts ahead to stay by bringing back a punt 75 yards for a score five minutes into the contest.
Rookie Andrew Luck completed 20 of his 37 throws for 240 yards and a touchdown while going over 3,000 passing yards for the season.
C.J. Spiller had 107 yards on 14 carries for the 4-7 Bills.
The Colts now have sole possession of the AFC's first wild-card berth following Pittsburgh's 20-13 loss at Cleveland. The Steelers had eight turnovers on five fumbles and three interceptions.
Steelers running back Chris Rainey scored a go-ahead touchdown just before halftime, but he also committed a costly fumble with 2:25 remaining. Third-string quarterback Charlie Batch had 199 passing yards and three picks as the Steelers dropped to 6-5.
Trent Richardson ran for 85 yards, including the go-ahead touchdown on a 15-yard scamper in the third quarter for the 3-8 Browns.
Miami beat Seattle 24-21 on Dan Carpenter's 43-yard field goal on the game's final play. Ryan Tannehill engineered a six-play, 65-yard drive to set up Carpenter's kick. Tannehill was 18-of-26 for 253 yards and a touchdown as the 5-6 Dolphins ended a three-game skid. Tannehill also broke Miami's rookie record of 2,210 passing yards set by Dan Marino 29 years ago.
Leon Washington returned a kickoff for a touchdown to put the Seahawks ahead 21-14 with eight minutes left. Russell Wilson threw for 224 yards and two scores for the 6-5 Seahawks.
The Cincinnati Bengals' current quarterback outplayed their former QB in a 34-10 thrashing of the Oakland Raiders. Andy Dalton threw for three touchdowns and was 16 of 30 for 210 yards. Meanwhile, Carson Palmer was sacked four times while completing 19 of his 34 passes for 146 yards and an interception.
BenJarvus Green-Ellis ran for 129 yards and a touchdown for the 6-5 Bengals, who have a three-game winning streak after dealing the Raiders their fourth straight loss.
The 3-8 Raiders have surrendered 169 points during their losing skid.
And Jacksonville was a 24-19 winner over Tennessee behind Chad Henne's (HEH'-neez) two touchdown passes. Henne hit Cecil Shorts III for a 59-yard touchdown in the third quarter and hooked up with rookie Justin Blackmon for a 7-yard score in the fourth.
Henne completed 17 of 26 passes for 261 yards as the 2-9 Jaguars ended a seven-game losing streak.
Locker completed 23 of 40 passes for 262 yards, with a touchdown and an interception for the 4-7 Titans.

PHOENIX -- Yoenis Cespedes and Josh Reddick don't want to live through another year like 2013, a feeling that's shared by A's batting coach Chili Davis.
But instead of telling the slugging outfielders what they need to do when full-team workouts begin Thursday, Davis said he'll start out by listening.
"I want Cespedes and Reddick to come in thinking about what happened last year," Davis said Wednesday.
Davis said both players "have to be thinking of changes to make" so they can return to where they were in 2012. Davis wants Cespedes and Reddick to tell him what they think happened, and he wants them to know why it happened
Cespedes and Davis were in the batting cage at 8 a.m. on Wednesday, with Cespedes taking his first swings of the spring. Batting practice lasted 20 minutes or so, then Davis and Cespedes discussed hitting for another 20 minutes.
Cespedes, now up to 225 pounds from his program weight of 210, says he's going to shorten his swing to make better contact. It could impact his power, but the left fielder doesn't believe so.
"Maybe if I hit a 430-foot home run, it will maybe be only 410 feet," he said during the A's recent FanFest. "But I'll do it more frequently."
Cespedes also talked about mental toughness -- that he didn't have enough of it last year. Davis said he doesn't believe that will be an issue this year with the left fielder wanting to get back to where he was in 2012 -- .292, 23 homers, 82 RBIs. Last season he hit 26 homers and drove in 80 runs, but his averaged dipped to .240.
As for Reddick, the right fielder can't wait to wash away the odor from 2013. A wrist injury that resulted in offseason surgery was a major problem, but hitting .226 with 12 homers and 56 RBIs ground at him, no matter the reason. The year before he had 32 homers and 85 RBIs.
"I needed time this winter to forget, to get away from it all," he said. "But at the same time it's hard to forget a year like last year. The thing is I'm healthy now. It's behind me."
So there will be more conversations like the one Davis had Wednesday morning with Cespedes -- with all the hitters. But Cespedes and Reddick were a good start, as those two have the muscle to stamp the A's as a contender just by themselves.
"I want them to them to be thinking, 'I'm going to swing at pitches I can hit,' " Davis said. "I want to see what they do in BP, what they do in practice. They know the things they have to do to prepare. And if they do that, there will be better swings."
And, presumably, better results.

INEWSPAPER OF THE SALISH, PEND D'ORIELLES AND KOOTENAI TRIBES COUNCIL SWORN IN Five newly elected Councilman were given the oath of office by Judge Don Dupuis at the first Quarterly meeting of 1976 held January 2. Two freshman Councilmen, Noel Pichette and "Sonny" Morigeau, along with incumbants John Malatare, Vic Stinger and Tom Pablo swore to.."support and defem the constitution of the United States against all enemies, to carry out faithfully and impartially the duties of my off ice to the best of my ability; to cooperate promote, and protect the best interests of my Tribe, in accordance with this Constitution and Bylaws." The five midterm Councilmen also took the oath of office, reaffirming the oath they swore by when first elected. Two names were nominated for Chairman of the Council........Joe McDonald nominated Tom Pablo, Hot Springs Councilman; and E.W. 'Bill' Morigeau nominated Harold 'Mitch' Mitchell,Jr., St. Ignatius. In a written ballot, supervised by BIA Supt. Al Renne and Reservation Programs Director Ray Dupuis, Mitchell was re-elected to the Chairmanship by a 6 to 4 vote. In the Vice Chairmanship two names, were also nominated. John Malatare nominated Vic Stinger, Pablo; and Noel Pichette nominated E.W. Morigeau, Poison. Stinger took Vice Chairman in a 7 to 3 vote over Morigeau. Thomas Pablo motioned for the Council to reaffirm Fred Houle, Jr. as Secretary of the Tribe. Councilmen Whitworth and Morigeau asked if there were any other applications to consider. Secretary Fred Houle stated the position had not been advertised, however if the Council voted not to reaffirm him he would advertise for applications to be made for them to consider. THe Council voted unanimous 10-0 to reconfirm Secretary Houle. Treasurer Linda Busby and Sargeant at Arms Homer Courville were also reconfirmed by the Council for a 2 year term. PACK RIVER MAKES LAND OFFER The new President fo the Pack River Company, Bob Dearmand, and company representatives Oliver Dupuis, from the Poison Pack River Mill, and Chet Chas -tain, met with the Tribal Council and presented an offer to sell over 27,000 acres of land to the Tribe. The land, comprises over 24,000 acces mostly cattle grazing area known as the Pack River Perma-Dixon Ranch, and approximately 3300 acres in the St. Ignatius area . 1200 acres of the St. Ignatius land is commonly known as the disputed Mission Fathers land that the Tribe has been seeking to reacquire. Pack River is asking from $130.00 to 600.00 an acre, with a majority of the land, over 24,000 acres selling rfor $150 an acre figure. If the Council accepts the offer to buy the entire acreage up for sale the total price would amount to over 5 million dollars. Tribal Chairman Harold Mitchell, Jr. stated that "the Council is considering the offer....Land appraisals are now being checked." If and when the Council decides to purchase the Pack River land, price negocia-= tions will have to be agreed upon first. The Pack River Mill in Poison was also brought up in the discussions by Mr. DeAr-mand. He stated that the Pack River Company would be willing to discuss either selling the Mill to the Tribe or combining forces in a joint venture for the Mill operation. He stated that Pack River has a mill , it would benefit both parties concerned : plus create employment if the two could reach an agreement. The Council said they would consider both ideas. The Mill in Poison has all but shut down completely, leaving laid off a majority of its employees, many of whom are Tribal members. If feasibility studies prove to be acceptable, the reopening of the Pack River Mill operation would give Reservation unemployment the shot in the arm it needs right now. $300,000 FOR NEW JOBS The Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribe is among 39 Tribal groups that will be receiving a total of almost $10 million this fiscal year. Johnny Neuman, Director of the E.D.A. Planning Project, stated his office has received notice that the Tribe's share of the grants will amount to $300,000.00. The Funding comes under Title X of the Public works and Economic Development Act to create Job Opportunities in areas of high unemployment. Job creation and distribu-; tion of funding will be allocated to Alvin Sloan, Director of the Reservation Man- gower and CETA Programs, loan told the Char-Koosta that a portion of the funding will be used to create new jobs under existing programs, giving examples of the Alcoholism Program, Youth Halfway House and the Tribal Alternative School. He further stated that sugges- tions for new projects not already receiving funding would be made by the Tribal council's administration committee. The funds will create approximately 35 new Jobs on the Reservation for one year. The local programs will go into effect after February 1st. Some projects under way on some other Reservations will include graveling driveways and repairing '& winterizing homes, irrigation projects for Tribally owned land one project to raise 200 Tribally owned cattle, Community Action Program to employ 60 Elderly people part-time and begin youth recreation Centers where they are needed. If you would like to submit Project suggestions send them into the Char-Koosta and we will be glad to forward them to the Administration Committee.

Just purchased version 3, running on PC with Windows 7.
Library components created in the previous version have been copied into the default section of the 'Library' file of version 3 and synchronized. The library parts appear in the browser window, but only some of them can be opened into the drawing space. The ones that will not open show a command line :" Trying to modify entities on a locked or invisible layer". However all the library components were created at the same time and saved individually. They all work on the previous version of QCAD.
Some components when placed in the drawing screen don't appear at all, without the above message.
Also, is there a way of slowing down the scale when zooming in and out of the screen. it is so quick that the 00 point is always lost.

FREMONT -- City Council appointments have become commonplace in Fremont, but council members made a selection Monday that was anything but. They made history by appointing Raj Salwan to an open council seat, giving the five-member panel two Indo-Americans and its first Asian majority.
Salwan, chairman of the Tri-Cities Democratic Forum and a politically connected ally of Mayor Bill Harrison, will join Vice Mayor Anu Natarajan, also an Indo-American; Councilwoman Sue Chan, a Chinese-American; and rookie Councilman Vinnie Bacon.
The council's ethnic makeup roughly mirrors that of Fremont. According to 2010 Census figures, Fremont's population of 217,000 is 50.6 percent Asian, of which 18 percent is Indo-American. About one-third of the population is white.
Salwan on Tuesday shrugged off talk of the council's demographics.
"It might be time for Fremont to look beyond that; we're a diverse community composed of people from all over the world," he said. "The most important part for me is whether the candidates are qualified."
During his 25-minute interview with the council, Salwan noted his political experience and community ties. He serves on the Fremont Planning Commission, the Oversight Board for Fremont's Successor Agency and is chairman of the Fremont Chamber of Commerce.
"Raj has a wide breadth of experience from working with the Chamber and the Democratic Party," Bacon said.
Salwan's appointment might draw criticism that his party connections played an outsize role in the selection, but Bacon noted that several candidates have similar ties.
"It wasn't that (the party connection)," he said. "Raj has been involved in lots of different things and that came through in the interview."
Salwan, a veterinarian and major property owner, was selected after six candidates were interviewed in a three-hour special meeting. He finished first by notching seven points in the council's ranking system, while David Bonaccorsi, an attorney and planning commission chairman, was a close second with six points. John J. Dutra trailed with four points while Yogi Chugh captured three. Christina Broadwin and Rick Jones each finished with two points.
Following the rankings, the motion to appoint Salwan passed with a 3-1 margin, with Natarajan casting the dissenting vote.
Natarajan said after the meeting that she was caught off-guard Monday because the system the council used to rank candidates was slightly different from that of past appointments. In previous meetings, Natarajan said, council members ranked each of the competing candidates, from top to bottom. On Monday, Harrison proposed that they rank only their top three choices, leaving the others unranked.
"I was surprised that the ranking system got changed at the last minute," Natarajan said. "The outcome may not have been different, but I was a little disappointed it was handled that way."
Harrison defended his ranking system, saying he thought "long and hard about" it and didn't intend to surprise his fellow council members. He said he proposed that council members only rank three applicants because that system creates a smaller possible point differential between the first-place candidate -- whose maximum total could be nine -- and the last-place finisher -- whose worst score would be zero. The possible point differential between candidates in the previous system is 20, with the winner being able to notch a maximum 24 points while the last-place candidate could finish with a minimum of four points.
"I didn't want to get someone to get four points and feel demoralized," Harrison said.
The new mayor noted that he received no pushback from council members during the meeting.
"Yes, this system was a little different," he said. "At the end of the day, it still takes a motion, a second and a vote to get the appointment."
Salwan's seat, which Harrison vacated last month when sworn in as mayor, expires in November 2014. He was sworn in at the mayor's office after the special meeting and was expected to take his seat at the regular council meeting Tuesday night, City Clerk Nadine Nader said.
"Our mayor wants us to keep moving and start making decisions," Salwan said. "I'm happy about that, and I'm ready to get to work and start contributing."

Good morning and welcome to Summit Up, the world's only daily column that's revealing a top secret about one of the editors over here at The Summit Up World Headquarters. Ready? Okay.This is coming from a long list of embarrassing moments from one of our finest that works day-in and day-out to bring you only the best content and information of the High Country. There were SO many gems of gut-busting, hilarious stories that a normal person should -and probably would - never really admit to, that this dude seems to be proud of. It took us awhile to narrow down the list to decide which one to share.Nonetheless, here we go: Gus Gavin (a pseudonym of course) was a champion of the skivie beer slide during his Frat days. For those who need the clarification that's something you do when you've had one too many and should keep more than one thing on.More came off than expected and of course it was all caught on camera. Fast forward to Gus Gavin's graduation party a few years later and his whole family was in on the joke too.I guess it's seeing yourself four year later when you're really not expecting it that makes it really embarrassing.Don't worry though, he made it clear that it was just really cold out when the video was captured.True story. We out.

As Hunter Numbers Decline, How Will We Fund Wildlife Conservation?
Whether you're an avid sportsman or purely a wildlife-watcher, it's a fact that the animals, birds and fish you endeavor to see are "paid for" mostly by hunters. Those who engage in hunting, fishing and trapping are the major contributors to conservation funds in almost every state. Surprisingly, the monies animal-viewers and birdwatchers donate to conservation efforts rarely add up to even a third or a half of what hunters put into department of natural resources funds — even though watchers greatly outnumber them.
In my own state of Wisconsin, deer-hunting licenses and permits generated $22.7 million in revenue for the department of natural resources in 2010. And in most years, an excise tax on hunting equipment provides an additional $10 million to the state for wildlife management — in one case, supplying $400,000 to study and prepare for the likely arrival of a deadly bat disease. The problem is, however, that the number of hunters — along with anglers and trappers — is declining. And it promises to keep decreasing as the population ages.
So as the economy tightens, causing state and federal budgets for wildlife conservation to continue to be cut, and if younger people are not taking up hunting and fishing, where will future environmental monies come from?
