Newtown Township
Board of Supervisors
Minutes of September 25, 2013
The Newtown Township Board of Supervisors met on September 25, 2013 in the Township meeting room at 7:30 PM. In attendance and voting were Supervisors: Chairman Michael Gallagher, Vice Chairman Matthew Benchener, Secretary Ryan W. Gallagher and Philip Calabro and Robert Ciervo, members. Also in attendance were: Kurt Ferguson, Township Manager, Jeffrey Garton, Township Solicitor and Michelle Fountain, Township Engineer.
Call to Order : Chairman Gallagher called the meeting to order with a moment of silence followed by an invocation by Mrs. Alan Crosman of Newtown Friends Meeting and the Pledge of Allegiance.
Changes to the Agenda: Mr. Ferguson announced two additions to the agenda, a Technology Committee report and a change order for the Silver Lake Dam repair.
Public Comment
Resident Rick Bankoff thanked the Supervisors for their actions on the Newtown Sewer Authority's proposed new sewage treatment plant, but he noted that although the Board had voted to not include a treatment plant in the update to the Act 537 Plan, he has received a letter from the Sewer Authority's attorney stating that DEP had met with the Township Manager and Engineer on September 19, 2013, and had directed them to include the plant in the Act 537 Plan. He asked the Board to address this letter and to also consider an amendment to the zoning ordinance to prohibit building of sewage treatment plants with capacity greater than 100,000 gallons per day within one mile of any residence.
Mr. M. Gallagher said that the letter to Mr. Bankoff and Crown Point residents misrepresents the facts of the DEP meeting as he understood them from our Township Manager and Engineer. He also pointed out that the parcel being considered for a possible sewage treatment plant is already zoned so that the plant is not a permitted use.
Mr. Ferguson said that at a meeting with DEP, he and Township Engineer Michelle Fountain discussed options for the Act 537 alternatives and explained that the Township would opt to send sewage elsewhere. He explained to DEP that the Township does not wish to include a new plant because of costs which appear to be above $70 million because of an existing agreement with Bucks County Water and Sewer Authority (BCWSA). The DEP recommended that the Township use the wording "preliminarily discussed and dismissed" the treatment plant option in its Act 537 update. The DEP understands the Township's position.
Ms. Fountain confirmed that she and Mr. Ferguson made clear to the DEP that the plant is not a viable option.
Mr. Bankoff said that the letter he has received from the Sewer Authority attorneys indicates something different. He would like the Supervisors to demand the resignations of the Authority members, who seem to be acting against the interests of the taxpayers and ratepayers. He asked whether the Township has been in communication with BCWSA about these concerns. He continued to urge the Board to consider an amendment to the zoning ordinance.
Mr. Gallagher said that he would like to arrange a face to face meeting with the Sewer Authority members to discuss with them that the Township is not including the treatment plant in the Act 537 plan. He noted that the Supervisors have only recently received a letter from the Sewer Authority attorneys but had not been copied on the Crown Point residents' letter. He and Mr. Ferguson have been working with Mr. Jones of BCWSA on the ongoing issues with DEP. It is his understanding that DEP is considering opening up 200,000 gallons shortly. He is optimistic that some Township projects may be able to move forward.
Mr. Garton explained that throughout the Jointure there are already existing sewage treatment plants and places where private plants are a viable option. To consider an amendment to the Joint Municipal Zoning Ordinance, the entire ordinance, as it applies to all zoning districts in three municipalities, would have to be reviewed. An amendment cannot be a "gut reaction" but must be carefully considered.
Dr. Ciervo noted that perhaps an amendment could be crafted based on capacity, as many developments in Upper Makefield are already using private on-site sewage treatment plants. He would discuss this at a Jointure meeting. Meanwhile, there are many steps involved in considering a municipal treatment plant, including zoning relief for this particular proposed plant.
Mr. M. Gallagher said that there will be many opportunities for residents and officials to oppose the proposal. Public hearings will be advertised.
Resident Karen Barton said that Crown Point residents had sent a letter to the Sewer Authority posing many questions and have yet to receive a reply. She asked whether the residents should seek answers through a "right to know" request. She asked whether there are any viable alternatives to the sewage treatment plant for the Act 537. She is very concerned that the Sewer Authority will proceed with the new sewage treatment plant despite the Township's and the residents' opposition.
Mr. M. Gallagher said that the Township will continue with the status quo and will identify where possible hook-ups can be made through BCWSA. He suggested that the residents pursue answers to their questions through a "right to know" request.
Mr. Ferguson said that the Township has begun its update of the Act 537 plan but some issues cannot be resolved until issues between BCWSA and DEP have been addressed.
Mr. Garton said that the Board of Supervisors has the ability to appoint members to the Sewer Authority and to address issues through the Act 537 Plan, however the Sewer Authority is an independent agency. The Board cannot force the Authority to act. Newtown Borough also appoints 50% of the Authority members. As ratepayers, residents have a right to oppose what the Sewer Authority proposes.
Betty Tatum, who will be living in Pennswood Village shortly, urged the Board to have a frank discussion with the Sewer Authority expressing residents' strong opposition to the plant.
Wayne Tatum thanked the Board for its continued support of residents opposed to the sewage treatment plant. He said that he is concerned that the Sewer Authority is not forthcoming with information and has been misrepresenting the costs of the plant and its impact on ratepayers. He urged the Board to carefully and closely watch the Sewer Authority's records.
Mr. Benchener noted that the Township only appoints half of the Sewer Authority members; Newtown Borough appoints half and will have two open seats in January. He urged the concerned residents to bring their concerns to Borough Council.
Swamp Road Residents Group: Residents Moe Sood, Dennis Fisher and Eleanor Lyons, representing Swamp Road Residents Group, provided the Board with packets of information about their ongoing concerns with plans for improvements to Swamp Road. Mr. Fisher reminded the Board that in 2007 it had passed a resolution, supported by 98% of residents of the Swamp Road corridor, opposing PennDOT's plan to widen Swamp Road. Since that time the road has been reclassified and some of the requested traffic calming has been implemented.
Mrs. Lyons said that the Tamara Farm Bridge widening has remained on the TIP. Residents are opposed to this because it would involve further widening of the road near the bridge. The residents' group is asking the Board to support its request to remove the bridge repair from the TIP. Residents would also like to see a three way stop sign at the intersection of Swamp Road and Twining Bridge Road.
Mr. Sood said that DVRPC has indicated the Tamara Farm Bridge is not unsafe. The bridge acts as traffic calming and residents are eager to keep the traffic from speeding.
Mr. M. Gallagher moved to send a letter to PennDOT and to DVRPC requesting that the Tamara Farm Bridge repair be removed from the TIP and that a three way stop sign be installed at the intersection of Swamp and Twining Bridge Roads. Mr. R. Gallagher seconded and the motion passed 5-0.
Mr. Sood asked that copies of the letter be sent to our State Representative and State Senator.
Reports of Committees, Boards and Commissions
Planning Commission : Secretary Peggy Driscoll reported that at its September 17, 2013 meeting the Commission reviewed three Zoning Hearing Board applications. Mark and Deborah Weinstein, 39 Harmony Way, seek variances for setback relief of 16 feet where 30 feet are required to enclose an existing screened in porch and extend an existing patio. The Commission voted to recommend that the Board not oppose this application. The Commission reviewed the application of Mercer Bucks Cardiology, 104 Pheasant Run, for a 20 square foot sign, which will be a third sign where only two are permitted. The applicant's medical offices are at the rear of the building, not visible from the street and the sign is necessary to direct patients to the correct entrance. The Commission recommended that the Supervisors support this application.The Commission reviewed the application of Sycamore Salon, 9 S. Sycamore Street, for a 12 square foot sign, which is a second sign where only one sign is permitted and recommended that the Board not oppose this application. The existing sign is not visible to northbound traffic on Sycamore Street and is needed to direct customers to the location. The applicant was advised that if a variance is granted the sign must still be approved by HARB.
Technology Committee: Chairman Kyle Davis reported that at its September 24, 2013 meeting, the Committee prepared recommendations for use of technology to better serve the community including:
Social Media - the Township should enact a social media policy to guide the Township administration on proper use of social media to communicate with the community. Once a policy is in place, the Township should consider a presence on Facebook and Twitter to alert residents of ongoing issues, including changes to Board agendas, road closings, power outage updates, etc. Facebook and Twitter should be used for output only, as an interactive presence would require ongoing monitoring.
Wireless Access throughout the Administration Building to enable better use of the small lobby conference rooms and the community meeting rooms. Using consumer grade wireless access points this should cost less than $200 and involve a few hours of work.
Hardware for use during public meetings: The Committee recommends budgeting for purchase of notebooks, tablets or Google Chrome books for use during meetings for those volunteers who do not own personal devices. These could be set up and later removed by Township staff.
Upgrade of Video for Supervisors Televised Meetings: Allow applicants to broadcast plans and visual exhibits directly to the television, rather than the current method of focusing the camera on the plans on easels. This could be accomplished by supplying electronic copies of the documents in advance to enable switching between the live video feeds and electronic documents for television viewers and meeting room audience.
Web site Upgrade: The Committee has researched the sites of neighboring municipalities and recommends upgrading to a site which can be maintained by more staff members. Permits and applications could be completed, filed and paid for on line.
Finance Software: The current system had been created some time ago and is not compatible with other software. The application runs on a proprietary non-standard database format. Currently this is not causing an issue but due to the age and nature of the system, the Technology Committee foresees the possibility of issues with this system in the future.
Mr. M. Gallagher asked about extending wireless connections throughout the building.
Mr. Davis said that the Committee recommends that the public access to the internet should not be password protected and should be separated from the Township's internal information.
Board of Supervisors: Mr. M. Gallagher announced that Veterans Park would officially open on October 5, 2013 with a ribbon cutting at 9:00 AM. The fields will be used that day for exhibitions games. The Park and Recreation Department will be sponsoring a scarecrow making event and other games and activities. The Park and Rec Board is sponsoring a community yard sale for children's items.
Mr. R. Gallagher announced that the Newtown Grant Garage Sale will be on Saturday, September 28 from 7:00 AM until noon in the pool parking lot.
Dr. Ciervo said that Council Rock School District will hold a special meeting on Monday, September 30 to review a recently completed capacity study which will consider not only current building capacities but also projections of future enrollment.
Mr. Calabro announced that the Supervisors have rescheduled the Budget meeting for October 15, 2013 at 7:45 PM. To accommodate this new schedule, the Planning Commission meeting will take place that same evening at 7:00 PM.
Land Development
College Nannies and Tutors, 277 N. Sycamore Street: Dr. Ciervo moved to approve the conditional use of College Nannies and Tutors, 277 N. Sycamore Street. Mr. M. Gallagher seconded and the motion passed 5-0.
Corner Bakery Café, 3 West Road: Dr. Ciervo moved to approve the modification to the conditional use of Corner Bakery Café to allow music on the patio. Mr. Benchener seconded and the motion passed 5-0.
Oishi Restaurant, 2808-2810 South Eagle Road: Mr. Benchener moved to approve the conditional use of Oishi Restaurant, 2808-2810 South Eagle Road. Dr. Ciervo seconded and the motion passed 5-0.
Beneficial Bank, 34 South Sycamore Street, Reconsideration of Preliminary as Final Plan: Mr. Garton reminded the Board that on May 29, 2013, the Board approved a stipulation agreement with Beneficial Bank in response to a court order. Relying on the court order, Beneficial prepared and submitted plans for land development consistent with the stipulation agreement. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the plans subject to certain conditions. At the September 11, 2013 meeting the Board did not approve those plans. Attorney John VanLuvanee responded to the Board with a letter reminding it that the plans were in response to a court order and that the Board could be faced with contempt of court and significant financial consequences for failure to approve the plan. The plan is being offered for reconsideration at this time. The conditions of approval are identical to those presented on September 11.
Attorney Kelly McGowan represented the applicant. She indicated that the applicant will accept the conditions of approval.
Mr. M. Gallagher said that the plans submitted were the result of a compromise between the Township and the other parties in opposition and the Bank and the stipulation agreement had been approved. He had been surprised that the vote had failed and in light of the consequences of failure to approve the plan, he asked the Bank to return and he now asked the Board to reconsider its position.
Mr. Calabro said that although there have been some modifications to the original plan, his key concern has always been traffic and this has not been adequately addressed. He asked the Bank to consider eliminating the left turn into the Bank from Richboro Road, making that access point right in/right out only.
Ms. McGowan said that there have been numerous discussions and traffic studies, all concluding that right only exit but right and left in will be safe and will not cause a traffic issue.
Mr. Calabro disagreed, noting that this is already a very busy street and adding an additional left turn will add to the difficulties. He also resented the tone of Mr. VanLuvanee's letter, threatening to sue the Township, while at the same time seeking the Township's residents as customers. He urged residents not to do business with this bank at this location.
Mr. Benchener said that he agrees with Mr. Calabro's concerns and had not originally supported the plan, but as it appeared that the Township would lose in court on its refusal to grant conditional use approval, he did agree to the stipulation agreement. The land development vote was to have affirmed what had already been agreed to in the stipulation agreement. To oppose the plan now will put the Township at financial risk and could lose the compromises which were gained in the stipulation,
Mr. Calabro said that he feels this is a fight worth fighting. He is asking for one additional concession, the right in only access on Richboro Road. He would like to see the project completed but is not willing to risk the residents' safety.
Ms. McGowan said that the Bank has no desire to sue the Township; this is an issue that has already been resolved and the applicant has submitted a plan which complies with the stipulation.
Mr. R. Gallagher said that none of the Board members are happy with the plan, as it goes against the Township's vision for Sycamore Street. He had expected the vote to have been the same as it had been at stipulation. While he is not in favor of the plan, he is not in favor of a fight that the Township cannot win. He will change his vote to avoid a costly fight in court.
Dr. Ciervo said that he had been disappointed that he had been singled out for criticism in Mr. VanLuvanee's letter. He had been against the original plan and against the stipulation agreement. His concern has always been traffic and the safety of the left turn entrance on Richboro Road. He feels the stipulation was not a compromise but that the Township gave in. All of the other changes made to the original plan were minor. He will not change his vote.
Mr. Benchener moved to approve the preliminary plan as final for Beneficial Bank, 34 South Sycamore Street, subject to the following conditions.
(a) Section 402.3B&C, so as to permit an aerial photo in lieu of a survey;
(b) Section 5.224.B to allow grading within five feet of the property lines;
(c) Sections 402 and 403 to allow the Plan to be reviewed and approved as Preliminary/Final Plan;
(d) Section 402.1.A and 403.1.A to allow the Plan to be drawn on a scale of one inch equals thirty feet;
(e) Section 521.5B to allow existing ground cover to be used in the predevelopment condition in lieu of meadow condition;
(f) Section 224.3 of the Newtown Township Stormwater Management Ordinance to use existing site conditions to determine allowable release rates;
(g) Section 238.C of the Newtown Township Stormwater Management Ordinance to allow roof drains to discharge to areas other than in infiltration areas or vegetative BMP's;
(h) Section 530.3.D.3 to permit the planting of trees within fifteen feet of overhead wires, but to compensate for the location of the trees, ornamental trees selected from the latest edition of compatible tree fact sheets ( a resource outling trees approved by PECO and other utility companies for use and proximity to power lines) shall be used so as to not adversely impact the power lines;
(i) Section 5.224.A to permit a three to one grade in lieu of the required four to one;
4. Compliance with the Boucher & James report dated August 13, 2013 except to the
extent waivers have been granted;
Mr. M. Gallagher seconded.
Discussion of motion: Mr. R. Gallagher said that while he understands Dr. Ciervo's position, he would be voting to support the motion because he wants to protect the taxpayers from a costly litigation. He asked the Board to support this motion unanimously.
Mr. Calabro asked what Beneficial will do if the motion fails again. He asked again to consider a right in only on Richboro Road.
Ms. McGowan said that Beneficial would return to court to ask that the stipulation be enforced. She said that a right in entrance is not acceptable.
Mr. Calabro said that he would vote in favor to avoid costly litigation but he does not believe the bank is acting in the best interest of the community.
Resident Ethel Hibbs said that when Stockburgers was open, for many years it had a very busy repair and body shop at that location and the left turn in had not been a problem. There have not been any serious accidents at that intersection; she feels it will continue to be safe. She objected to Dr. Ciervo's criticism of Mr. VanLuvanee.
Resident John D'Aprile said that he feels the intersection will be difficult and traffic will be worse, especially if the Borough's plans for the other Stockburger property are developed. He also disagreed with Mrs. Hibbs' comments.
Mr. Benchener said that the initial objection had been because of traffic, but recent traffic studies do not support that objection.
The motion passed 4-1, with Dr. Ciervo voting nay.
Engineer's Report
Birches Certificate of Completion #1: Mr. Benchener moved to approve escrow release to the Birches in the amount of $369,838.61. Mr. R. Gallagher seconded and the motion passed 5-0.
Sidewalk Ordinance: Ms. Fountain explained that this is a request to authorize advertisement of a new sidewalk ordinance which will clarify the 2004 ordinance regarding definitions of disrepair of sidewalks and will set timelines for repair or replacement.
Mr. Ferguson said that the original ordinance required the Township Engineer to decide when a sidewalk must be repaired or replaced. The new ordinance will permit the Public Works Director to make that determination, keeping the work in-house.
Mr. Garton said that the new language regarding definitions of disrepair is less subjective. The ordinance allows 60 days to complete repairs.
Mr. Benchener moved to authorize advertisement of a new sidewalk ordinance. Mr. M. Gallagher seconded and the motion passed 5-0.
Silver Lake Dam Repair: Ms. Fountain said that the Board had authorized Hale Built to repair the Silver Lake dam at a cost of $33,984.07, however when DEP issued its letter of authorization it required some additional work. She provided the Board with photographs showing which repairs have been included in the original bid and the additional cracks revealed when the concrete was removed. It appears that unsuitable fill had been used in the past. The additional work will cost $12,824.74.
Mr. Gallagher asked whether this will fit into the initial budgeted amount.
Mr. Ferguson said that the Board had allocated $50,000 for the job. With the change order, the project will still be about 10% under budget.
Mr. Benchener moved to authorize a change order in the amount of $12,824.74 for the Silver Lake Dam repair. Mr. M. Gallagher seconded and the motion passed 5-0.
Trees from the Birches Project: Ms. Fountain reminded the Board that there are 27 trees remaining from the Birches tree replacement project. The Board had authorized planting 10 trees at Cliveden Estates with the remaining trees to be planted at Silver Lake and Roberts Ridge Parks. There is not available space for all of the additional trees at Roberts Ridge Park; Ms. Fountain suggested that the remaining trees be planted at Veterans Park.
Dr. Ciervo said that he visited Roberts Ridge with Park and Recreation Director Kathy Pawlenko and agreed that although some shade is needed at the playground, the trees would be too close together and would not grow well.
Dr. Ciervo moved to authorize planting the remainder of the Birches trees at Veterans Park to help create a buffer between the park and its residential neighbors. Mr. R. Gallagher seconded and the motion passed 5-0.
Solicitor's Report
Daniel Smolczynski, 135 Swamp Road, Zoning Hearing Board Application: Mr. Garton explained that Mr. Smolczynski is seeking a variance to permit 19.71% impervious surface where 12% is the maximum, to build a house on an undersized lot. Some residents had expressed concern that the application was to have been before the Zoning Hearing Board on Rosh Hashanah, so it has been continued to the October 3, 2013 meeting.
Resident Alan Gamble said that the residents of Walnut Ridge are very concerned about ongoing issues with stormwater management and run-off from the three lot subdivision at this location. Two of the houses have been built and Walnut Ridge residents have experienced increased standing water in their yards. He did not expect this to be before the Board this evening. He has a letter from the Walnut Ridge Homeowners Association stating that no residents are in support of the application.
Mr. M. Gallagher explained that the Supervisors review applications to the Zoning Hearing Board to determine whether the Township should participate in the hearing, where the decision will be made.
Attorney Don Marshall represented the applicant. Mr. Marshall said that Mr. Smolczynski did not object to continuing the application to the October meeting. The Planning Commission has already reviewed the application and recommended that the Supervisors not oppose it. He said that this is a three lot subdivision; each lot is 36,060 square feet where 40,000 square feet are required. There is a 120 foot right of way at this location. Since the subdivision was created, two homes have been built. This lot has a circular driveway which Mr. Smolczynski would like to keep for safety reasons. It is a difficult driveway to back out of; cars will have to turn around to exit. A drainage system has been designed for all three lots with the largest seepage bed on this lot. It has not yet been installed, but will bring post development flow to below pre-construction. He showed an aerial photograph of the three lots.
Mr. Vince Fiorvante, engineer on the project, explained that the proposed new house will be similar to the other two in the subdivision. There is 600 feet of lawn between the house and the culvert in Walnut Ridge. The subdivision slopes in the front toward Swamp Road. At the rear, the run-off will flow across the lawns to the swale at the rear. The stormwater must be controlled to pre-development conditions. A seepage bed is planned for this lot to capture all run-off. There will not be a detrimental impact on the Walnut Ridge culvert.
Mr. Marshall said that the plans now include porous pavers for a portion of the new driveway areas, as suggested by the Planning Commission. Although the ordinance considers porous paving as impervious, the net effect is a 15.15% impervious surface. He explained that the existing circular driveway represents 11%
of the impervious surface. Township Engineers have reviewed the seepage pit for these lots and found them adequate. There will be the standard maintenance agreement with the Township.
Mr. Gamble said that the aerial photograph does not show the ongoing ponding on the lawns. He also asked whether trees are to be removed.
Dr. Ciervo said that in 2005, Mr. Mastromarco had been the equitable owner when variances were granted to permit a three lot subdivision, creating the undersized lots. The proposed change is major, from 12% to 19.71%. He would like to see some compromise on the total impervious surface. This is not a hardship. There are ways to reduce the impervious surface further. He would support a variance, but not such a large one, especially since the residents nearby are opposed. He noted that there is no permit for the circular driveway.
Mr. Marshall noted that the neighboring development has 25% impervious surface. The applicant is proposing adequate stormwater management to control the additional run-off.
Mr. M. Gallagher also questioned the hardship; he did not see the necessity of the large circular driveway.
Mr. Marshall said that the driveway was built many years ago.
Mr. Fiorvante said that the applicant will be removing 500 square feet of driveway. The street is very busy and the applicant wants to keep the house far from the road for his children's safety. The house backs to Tyler Park and open space and is very similar to the other two on the subdivision. He assured the Board that it would have no impact on drainage.
Dr. Ciervo said that if the impervious could be reduced further he would not be opposed.
Mr. Smolczynski said that he wants to keep the driveway and place the house farther from the road because he has five small children. He wants them to be safe in the front yard and when they grow up and are learning to drive, he wants safe egress from the house. There is a financial hardship in tearing out the circular drive, which has existed for many years.
Dr. Ciervo asked about the proposed stormwater management.
Ms. Fountain said that she had not been Township Engineer when lot #1 was developed, but she had reviewed lot #2's stormwater management and found no problems. Lot #3 has not been fully reviewed but it appears to be larger than the other two seepage beds. Fully engineered stormwater management plans will be submitted and reviewed before permits are issued. She has met with Mr. Gamble and is aware of his concerns.
Mr. Gamble said that the increase in impervious surface is a problem and he asked the Supervisors to uphold the ordinance.
Mr. R. Gallagher said that he is not willing to send the solicitor to the Zoning Hearing Board, but he urged the applicant to revise his plans to reduce some of the impervious surface.
Mr. Smolczynski said that he will review his plans; he does not want to be uncooperative with his neighbors.
Mr. M. Gallagher moved to send the solicitor to oppose the application of Daniel Smolczynski at the Zoning Hearing Board. Dr. Ciervo seconded.
Discussion of motion: Mr. Benchener said that he would urge the applicant to look for ways to reduce the impervious surface but he is unwilling to send the solicitor to oppose the application.
Dr. Ciervo said that Mr. Smolczynski should not have purchased land which has zoning in place to prevent what he was hoping to build.
Mr. Marshall said that Mr. Smolczynski will review his plans and look for ways to reduce the impervious surface further.
The motion failed 2-3, with Messrs. Benchener, Calabro and R. Gallagher voting nay.
Wildgust Property, 104 St. Andrew's Place ( Mr. Benchener left the meeting at this point.) : Mr. Garton explained that Mr. Wildgust recently purchased a home at 104 St. Andrew's Place and wishes to install an inground swimming pool, but has discovered that his rear yard is deed restricted open space.
Attorney Russell Sacco represented Mr. Wildgust. He provided the Board with copies of the as-built plan for the house. He pointed out that the entire yard, almost to the back door, is deed restricted open space. There was no mention of the restriction in the deed for the house. Note #8 of the 1989 plan does provide for the Township to approve a deviation from the restrictions. The Homeowners Association has made no mention of the deed restrictions in its bylaws. Some of the other homes in the development have in-ground pools. Mr. Sacco showed a plan for the pool and noted that the pool would increase the impervious surface from 14% to 17%. A variance will be required and additional stormwater management will be necessary. The property backs to Wrights Road.
Dr. Ciervo said that he is concerned that some of the deed restricted open space might be protected wetlands, and also that increased impervious surface could exacerbate the already difficult issues of icing on Wrights Road. It is also difficult to discuss this matter without a completed plan for the pool.
Mr. R. Gallagher asked if any trees would be removed to build the pool.
Mr. Sacco said that one tree would be removed. The house is not visible from the road.
Mr. R. Gallagher said that because the entire yard is deed restricted, he is not opposed to considering a pool, but would want more detailed information first.
Mr. Sacco explained that Mr. Wildgust would not want to pursue this further if it is not going to be allowed at all. He wanted some indication that the Board might consider allowing construction in the open space.
Dr. Ciervo asked whether there is any way to minimize the increase in impervious surface.
Mr. Sacco said that the property is permitted 15% impervious surface and is already at 14%. Some relief will be necessary. The pool will not be close to the wetlands. This is a unique situation in that the open space is not on common land, but on the homeowner's land.
Mr. Calabro said that he has concerns about approving this because of the possible proximity to wetlands and the ongoing difficulties with flooding and icing of Wrights Road.
Mr. Garton said that it appears that the Board is not entirely in support of considering the pool without more information on the location of the wetlands, the increase to impervious surface and the proposed stormwater management. It is up to Mr. Wildgust to decide whether to pursue this further by addressing the Board's concerns.
Police Report
Police Chief Henry Pasqualini reported that the Department had answered 1255 calls, including a number of mental health calls. The officers are trained in handling these issues. He said that there had been one call this month about a road rage incident. He urged residents not to shout at or gesture at other drivers, as we never know who we might be dealing with. He also noted two daytime burglaries and cautioned residents to report any suspicious activity near their homes.
Manager's Report
Treasury Report: Mr. Ferguson reported that the income from real estate transfers, earned income tax and local services tax has been better than anticipated. The current cash balance is $3,072,762. The Township has received the State contribution to the pension funds. The Minimum Municipal Obligation will be paid at the next meeting in the net amount of $653,555.
Rock Salt Bid: Mr. R. Gallagher moved to award the rock salt bid to International Salt Company as outlined in a memo from Ronald Weaver dated September 17, 2013. Dr. Ciervo seconded and the motion passed 4-0.
Minutes, Bills Lists and Reports
Minutes: Mr. R. Gallagher moved to accept the minutes of September 11, 2013. Dr. Ciervo seconded.
Discussion of motion: Mrs. Hibbs noted that on page #4, a motion is made but not seconded. On page #5, that motion is amended, seconded and passed. The original motion was never acted on as it had not been seconded.
Mr. M. Gallagher said that the video tape should be reviewed to see whether the original motion had been seconded and if not, the Board can correct its action at the next meeting.
Mr. M. Gallagher moved to table consideration of the minutes of September 11, 2013. Dr. Ciervo seconded and the motion passed 4-0.
Bills: Mr. R. Gallagher moved to approve payment of bills totaling $409,427.91. Mr. M. Gallagher seconded and the motion passed 4-0.
Mr. R. Gallagher moved to approve interfund transfers totaling $180,430.08. Mr. M. Gallagher seconded and the motion passed 4-0.
The meeting adjourned at 10:40 PM.
|Respectfully Submitted:
Christy Holley-Flaherty, Recording Secretary

The lyrics to this song paint such a beautiful picture:)
Well, this is strange.
August 14, 2011 I made a decision to chop, chop, snap, snap, cut, cut, whatever you wanna call it I did it! I did the big chop blindfolded and nervous I chopped all of my hair off, not knowing the natural grade of hair lying underneath. My roots, oh my roots historical lines drawing all the way back somewhere deep in Africa, my roots. Somehow my parents managed to produce what I consider a unique mix of natural hair. I am in Love! My hair gives me the opportunity to release my prolific frenzy styles to the world. Forcing them to take a look on the wild side and look at life from a blind persons perspective by reducing limitation and increasing risk. Allowing the sounds of their heart to dictate their personal style for the day. Style is not limitless its should bring about blissfulness, however in this society our magazines, tv shows, and fashion models depict a one sided deadened specimen of beauty. Embrace your true beauty!

Even though we here at TrashBagDreams are trying to survive the bipolar fall/winter/summer weather thing that happens in Texas, we realize that there are some people that actually live in states that have seasons. So, in honor of those privileged individuals we decided to post the winter and fall trends that will be popping up on the streets.
Guys, guess what. It is okay to raid Bill Cosby's closet. Seriously! Patterned sweaters are back and better than ever!
Next is the Duffie/Toggle coat. Toggles really make everything look better.

Coined as the Godfather of Hip Hop, Gil Scott-Heron poured the foundation to what conscious hip hop is today. The likes of Common, Lupe, Talib, and Mos Def have Gil to thank for the blues infused social issue style of music. Even Kanye West on Dark Twisted Fantasy honored Gil by using his track, Who Will Survive In America as a way to bring close to his album with a powerful message. The loss of Gil Scott-Heron will be felt by many, but his music will remind us of his legacy.

Baek expects to return this season
Written by | Tom Krasovic | 4:08 p.m., Sep 15, 2008
Cha Sueng Baek said he "definitely" will pitch again this season, despite the upper-arm strain he suffered on Sunday that led Bud Black to remove him after two innings. "It's still a little sore," Baek said. But he said he will pitch again this season.

I don't think syrup and coffee go good together.
I'm sure they don't. He most likely thought that was the coffee pot.
The average person in the USA today consumes 77 LBs of sugar a year.
Aww, cut the poor guy some slack and pour him a cup.
A friend once did that at IHOP (where the bottomless coffee pot and the warm syrup containers are similar). The next time we were there, laughing about it, she poured coffee on her pancakes.

Real Madrid's faltering title defence deteriorated further with a shock 1-0 defeat at Real Betis, leaving them eight points behind rivals Barcelona and having played a game more in La Liga.
Hammered 5-1 by local rivals Sevilla last weekend, Betis enjoyed a famous victory at home against Jose Mourinho's mighty side, as a lovely 17th-minute finish from Spain international Benat was enough to inflict a third defeat of the season on Madrid.
With Cristano Ronaldo extending his dry spell, the forward having now scored only once in his past six games, Madrid were unable to find their way past inspired goalkeeper Adrian a week after his disastrous derby performance against Sevilla, and suffered another damaging evening in their bid to retain their Spanish crown.
Not only are they languishing far behind Barca - who have dropped only two points all season and play Levante on Sunday - Madrid are also a full five points behind city rivals Atletico following what by their lofty standards has been an awful three months of league football.
Mourinho made one change from the side that drew 1-1 at Manchester City midweek as Mesut Ozil took up residence behind Karim Benzema in place of Luka Modric. The Germany star was influential in the early stages when a trademark counter from Madrid culminated with his neat pass to Ronaldo, who had a firm low effort deflected behind.
Ronaldo turned provider soon after when accelerating violently down the left wing and jinking inside his marker to find Sami Khedira with a square pass. The German took the shot first time and got under the ball, lifting it over the bar when he really should have hit the target.
But Madrid's intensity soon dipped, and when it did, Betis punished them. Angel Di Maria made a mess of a clearance and looped the ball into the feet of Benat. Spain's new midfield star held off Khedira all too easily and from 25 yards arrowed a brilliant shot into the far corner.
The lead was almost extended when Ruben Castro raced onto a through ball from Salva Sevilla and saw his firmly struck effort palmed away by Iker Casillas, as a somewhat uninspired Madrid found themselves outfought if not outplayed by Betis, who were roared on by a vociferous home support.
The champions needed to be more clinical in the final third, though one flowing move carved Betis open after 31 minutes. Ozil slipped the ball square to Di Maria and he teed himself up for a volley that was deflected over. Soon after, Benzema volleyed home from a Xabi Alonso free-kick but was judged to be offside.
As Betis tried to pack the midfield they looked to exploit any chances on the break and it required a fantastic piece of defending from Sergio Ramos to prevent the deadly Castro from making it 2-0 with four minutes remaining of the first half.
Mourinho removed Khedira and Ozil for Kaka and Modric during the break in the hope of provoking a much better performance from Madrid. However, Betis went close to a second on 57 minutes when Juan Carlos curled a free-kick just wide following a typically wild moment from Pepe as he earned a booking for leaping into Salvador Agra.
Madrid began to squeeze the home side though and only a fine intervention from Angel prevented Benzema from tapping in after Adrian had deflected a Ronaldo cross into his path. Adrian then dived full length to tip a lovely curling effort from Kaka round the post.
Betis had irregular chances themselves, though both Salva and Castro were lacking composure when presented with excellent opportunities. The former took a touch too many when a glorious floated free-kick from Benat was touched back to him, while the latter fired over from Jorge Molina's pass.
Adrian was then forced to make a fine save to deny Benzema as Madrid threatened from a corner, and as the visitors piled forward the unbeatable home goalkeeper, ably assisted by centre-backs Antonio Amaya and Jose Antonio Dorado, denied the champions time and again in a brilliant display.
Betis survived a late penalty shout when the ball stuck the arm of substitute Emmanuel Nosa, but held on to record a stunning victory. Madrid, meanwhile, must be wondering whether their title campaign has already suffered fatal damage.

Key words: belly fat, blood sugar, blood sugar levels, lose weight
Description: A new all-natural formulation for losing belly fat and maintaining healthy blood sugar levels
Banish Belly Fat And Manage Your Blood Sugar Levels
With This New All-Natural Formula
Pic of Glucolite
Alt tag: Nutritional Supplement for Healthy Blood Sugar Levels and Weight Loss
§ Developed by a professional nurse with over 30 years experience in nursing.
§ Manufactured in the US at a facility that meets Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) as defined by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
§ Formulated with highest quality ingredients – pre-tested for purity and potency.
Glucolite's 5 herbs and 3 additional nutrients work together to promote health from the core. Glucolite . . .

"10 Secrets For Maintaining Healthy Blood Sugar Levels And Losing Belly Fat The Natural Way"

Glucolite supports a healthy metabolism, giving you more energy to do the things important to you.
We've all seen those ads - "you can eat anything you want and still lose weight" "lose 20 pounds in two weeks!"… "easy fat blaster guaranteed."
It's sometimes hard to resist their siren call. But these ads are doing you a disservice.
As a nurse for over three decades, I've seen how difficult it is for people to change habits and take charge of their health. But I've also seen how frustrating it is to reverse years of bad habits step by step. Results are slow in coming and require persistent work.
But as hard as it is to make this change, you've got to do it. You and I both know how unhealthy too much weight can be. In fact more and more research is demonstrating that to maintain good health - to maintain healthy blood sugar levels and all the health benefits that come with this - you need to maintain a healthy body weight.
That's why I developed Glucolite – a supplement formulated to give you some extra help in getting healthy.
Glucolite is one of the few natural supplements on the market that works to both help you lose weight and maintain healthy blood sugar levels. As you'll find out below – the two are inextricably linked.
Glucolite is one of the few supplements on the market designed to address the connection between losing weight and maintaining healthy blood sugar levels.
If you've got some extra belly fat, there's a very high chance you're struggling to maintain healthy blood sugar levels.
§ When your body cannot use glucose or sugar in the blood, it turns it into fat.
§ But to make the cycle even more vicious, when you have too much fat, it stops your body from using blood sugar effectively . . .
Just a few years ago, researchers at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine discovered that fat cells produce a hormone, called resistin, that actually increases your cells' resistance to insulin.
Why is this important?
Insulin signals your cells to take in glucose. If your cells resist insulin, you won't get the fuel you need in your cells and the glucose stays outside in your blood, building up to higher levels.
To maintain healthy blood glucose levels, you need to lose weight. And to lose weight, you need to be able to use the glucose in your blood.
Glucolite works on both fronts:
§ supporting healthy glucose uptake from the blood
§ and helping you to lose weight.
[ order now button]
How does it work?
Glucolite combines 5 different herbs from Ayurvedic healing tradition:
Lab research has also shown that it promotes pancreatic beta cell growth. In one study it even doubled the number of insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas.
It also has been shown to promote the healthy growth of insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas.
It also contains high levels of a plant form of insulin – p-insulin.
But most interestingly, it turns on the same master switch for fuel metabolism that exercise does – the enzyme AMPK. This helps increase your body's use of fuel.
But it goes even further. Fenugreek also increases the number of insulin receptors in your red blood cells. And a special amino acid in fenugreek increases your body's release of insulin as glucose levels rise.
But it goes even further. Green tea inhibits the enzyme that we use to break down carbohydrates – alpha amylase. This reduces how much glucose gets into the blood stream. Better yet, it also increases the number of glucose transporters in our cells taking glucose out of the blood stream and into our cells. Finally, animal studies of green tea show that it increases the activity of insulin in fat cells by more than 15 times.
These five herbs alone have a long tradition of working wonders when it comes to keeping people healthy.
[order now button]
But we didn't just stop with these herbs.
We wanted to include 3 more nutrients that have been shown through extensive clinical research to support healthy blood sugar levels . . .
Many supplements contain chromium picolinate, a form linked to chromosomal disorders. To give you the safest supplement around, we use instead chromium nicotinate which has been demonstrated to work better than picolinate without the side effects.
Vanadium at high levels can cause stomach upset. Glucolite is carefully formulated to contain enough of this essential mineral to support blood sugar health without causing any discomfort.
But this antioxidant has a few unique traits. It works effectively both in water or in fats. Most antioxidants can work only in one environment. And better yet, alpha lipoic acid multiplies the power of other antioxidants Vitamin C and E by recycling them.
So put an end to endless work with nothing to show for it . . .
These 8 Ingredients Will Make All Your Hard Work Pay Off . . .
Glucolite was formulated to combat frustration!
You shouldn't have to go to the gym four times a week and not see a difference when you step on the scale. . .
You shouldn't be furiously shaving down your carbs until you can't eat a noodle . . .
And still experience energy dipsy doodles that make you just want to go ahead and eat a whole package of cookies.
No, if you're doing the diligent work to get your body working right: Moving around, eating well . . . living well.
You should see the results.
Glucolite will help you get the results you want.
It won't work alone. It's no magic pill. But it's designed to help you get the most out of your diet and exercise.
Is There A Better Investment You Can Make Than Your Health?
Glucolite combines herbs and nutrients that purchased separately would cost a lot – not to mention turn each mealtime into a pill-swallowing marathon.
Instead you can get a month's supply of easy-to-swallow Glucolite capsules (2 capsules/2 times a day) for only $59.95.
That's a little less than two dollars a day.
Think about it this way: Just skip by that soda or that sweet pick-me-up you get each afternoon, eat some inexpensive fruit instead. And use the money you've saved to get some good stuff in you – Glucolite.

A Word To the Wise: Herbs Can Be Powerful
We highly recommend you take Glucolite in consultation with your health care provider, especially if you are taking medications for blood sugar regulation or blood thinners.
If you are taking medications for blood sugar regulation, work with your health care provider to monitor your blood sugar levels carefully and adjust medications appropriately.
Also please note, while the ingredients of Glucolite are considered safe, they have not been tested for safety with pregnancy. If you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, please consult with your health care provider before using Glucolite.
While most people will experience no side effects in taking Glucolite, vanadium at high levels (higher than Glucolite's dosage) has been shown to cause stomach upset. If you experience gastrointestinal disturbance, please discontinue use until you have consulted with a health care professional.
And when you give Glucolite a try, let me know how it's helped . . .

American Airlines' employees fly free, other changes to employee travel
American Airlines' employees will be able to travel for free in coach class on any flight in the worldwide network, the airline told them today in a company newsletter.
The free flights are part of the carrier's new non-revenue flying program for employees. Fort Worth-based American merged with US Airways last month and together employ about 100,000 people.
The new program also will give employees' registered family members and parents unlimited travel privileges and they won't have to use buddy passes. Pre-merger American employees will no longer have to wait until age 55 for retiree travel if they meet the qualifications.
Starting this summer, the airline also will use American's boarding system for employees based on a flight's check-in time.
"While implementation will take some time, when complete, American Airlines will offer free coach travel across the largest and best network in the industry, improved pass privileges for family and friends, and a consistent boarding system," Elise Eberwein, American's executive vice president of people and communications, wrote in the newsletter. "With more than 6,700 daily flights to over 330 destinations, let's go!"

One of the most difficult aspects of professional blogging is remaining on task and focused on your work. As a freelance blogger, you tend to work from home and on your own schedule. While this is one of the major ploys for making a living as a blogger, it can also be the downfall for the easily distracted. Much of successful and therefore profitable blogging is about self-discipline and motivation. However, when the heart of your work relies on the use of the internet and a computer, it can be fairly easy to be under focused and highly distracted. As writers, we need quite, calm, and minimal platforms that are inspiring and motivating in which we work. Using a busy and complicated platform to produce our work can be frustrating and time wasting.
So many individuals enter the world of professional or hobby blogging thinking they can succeed with only their computer and mouse. While this is true to an extent, it can become difficult to stay on task and productive after a long period of time using distracting tools. Blogging is a difficult task to perform truly successfully. For this reason, blogging hopefuls should utilize every helpful tool they have available to them. Try one of these three blogging applications aimed to help bloggers stay focused on their writing process without too many distracting bells and whistles.
QuiteWrite is a free web app that allows users to have a full screen writing experience. Easily eliminating any distracting buttons, backgrounds, colors, and more, QuietWrite enables writers and bloggers to fully focus on their writing without having to worry about setting templates, using formatting, and styling text. This application is one of the more minimal writing platforms available and comes at the right price free. You can access QuiteWrite as an online workspace or download it for regular use. If you find that you become easily distracted with other elements of your computer or you are wasting your time trying to carefully format your writing before you actually finish writing it, QuietWrite helps de-clutter your writing experience.
Available only for Macs, Ommwriter is one of the strongest writing platform tools available. Focusing not only on distraction-less writing, Ommwriter also seeks to calm and relax you as you work. With several different fonts, sizes, colors, and backgrounds, Ommwriter allows each individual to personalize their workspace while still keeping it minimal. So, if staring at a completely blank screen is a daunting task, try personalizing your space with Ommwriter. With a consistent and soothing typing sound, Ommwriter enables bloggers to create a rhythm with their typing and become immersed in the flow of their work. You can also choose to play music gently in the background as you work. This app is perfect for the individual who seeks some sort of inspiration and interest in their work station, but still wishes for a clean and uncluttered space.
Pages App
Every individual has a different preference for their writing environment. While some may prefer the soothing and inspiring environment that Ommwriter offers, others may find the sounds, colors, and fonts too distracting to be worthwhile. For the individual that truly wishes for a blank slate, the Pages App is for you. This application provides a full screen experience, where the background of your computer is black and the page you are writing on is white. There are no buttons, font choices, colors, or sounds. This application cuts out all distraction and leaves the writer to just his mind and his page.

Why are our shakes such a great meal replacement? Here's the lowdown.
Whey Protein Concentrate:
Whey protein is derived from the liquid (whey) which is separated from the curds in cheese making. It is used for muscle growth because it is very easily digested making it quickly available to the muscles for growth and rebuilding. Protein concentrates are created by pushing the protein source (milk, whey, etc.) through a very small filter that allows water, minerals, and other organic materials to pass though. The proteins, which are too big to pass through the filter, are collected, resulting in protein powder. When this process is used to make whey protein concentrate, it yields a protein powder that is 70-80% protein and up to 5% lactose. People with lactose intolerance will have trouble consuming large amounts of whey protein concentrate (Roussell).
Whey Protein Isolate:
This is a purer form of whey protein and contains less lactose than whey concentrate. With adequate protein consumption the human body has an easier time creating lean muscle mass which will increase the body's metabolism and the amount of calories burned each day, in turn aiding in the burning of stored energy (fat cells). Protein isolates have very low levels of carbohydrates and fat and are almost exclusively pure protein. People with lactose intolerance usually don't have trouble with whey protein isolates. Many companies that make whey protein isolates will certify that their product is lactose free or they add lactase (the enzyme that breaks down lactose) to the protein powder to help with digestion (Roussell).
Inulin is a naturally occurring soluble dietary fiber that increases the feelings of fullness, called satiety. Consuming Inulin has also been shown to do the following:
Inulin increases calcium absorption (Abrams) and possibly magnesium absorption (Coudray), while promoting the growth of intestinal bacteria. In terms of nutrition, it is considered a form of soluble fiber and is sometimes categorized as a prebiotic. Due to the body's limited ability to process polysaccharides, inulin has minimal increasing impact on blood sugar, and—unlike fructose—is not insulemic and does not raise triglycerides (Niness), making it considered suitable for diabetics and potentially helpful in managing blood sugar-related illnesses.
Because maltodextrin is more easily metabolized than other carbohydrates, it is popular with bodybuilders and athletes who wish to derive energy from their food for workouts or for competitions. Its use as a filler and thickening agent also makes it a popular ingredient for weight-loss or weight-maintenance shakes, as its consistency helps dieters feel full, decreasing the chance of overeating (Fernandez).
Slendesta is a registered trademark of Kemin Industries. Slendesta is a patented, safe and natural satiety ingredient for weight management food and food supplements. Slendesta Potato Extract is standardized to its active component, PI2. PI2 promotes the release of CCK, the natural signaling peptide within our body. Once released, CCK travels through the blood targeting various organs, where it induces feelings of fullness and satisfaction known as satiety.
Slendesta Makes Dieting Easier. One of the primary excuses dieters give for going off their diet is that they are still hungry after a meal. Slendesta helps dieters by promoting satiety. If we feel satisfied, there's less hunger, and less chance of temptation.
Clinical studies have collectively demonstrated PI2's benefits, including that it is a safe and effective natural ingredient that promotes satiety and healthy weight loss. When taken as directed, Slendesta has resulted in statistically significant weight loss and reductions in waist and hip measurements.
Slendesta is a natural potato extract derived from white potatoes, which is one of the most commonly consumed foods. In addition to historical consumption, animal toxicity data and human clinical studies have reported no adverse effects associated with the use of Slendesta Potato Extract when taken as directed (Kemin).
Oat Fiber:
Fiber makes us feel full sooner and stays in our stomach longer than other substances we eat, slowing down our rate of digestion and keeping us feeling full longer. Fiber also moves fat through our digestive system faster so that less of it is absorbed, both of these reasons make fiber important for weight loss.
Barley Beta Fiber:
Barley beta fiber (beta-glucan) assists in weight loss by moderating glucose absorption, thereby reducing cravings for high glycemic foods that can sabotage weight loss. It is also a good source of dietary fiber meaning that it increases satiety, the feeling of fullness.
Bromelain & Papain:
Even if you don't know bromelain and papain by name, you have probably used them at some point for medicinal purposes. Bromelain, derived from pineapple, and papain, derived from papaya, are both protease enzymes, meaning that they digest and tenderize protein.
Bromelain and papain appear to work in synergy to accomplish many of the same medicinal tasks. Bromelain is a powerful anti-inflammatory, so strong that it can replace the use of conventional NSAIDs like ibuprofen in treating painful inflammation when taken in higher dosages. This makes it ideal for combating pain from or arthritis, injury, menstrual cramps, or digestive problems. It appears to work by blocking the metabolites that are responsible for controlling the body's inflammatory response. Bromelain is most often used internally. Though it has a different mechanism of action, papain works to treat many of the same ailments.
Additionally, because they are both powerful digestive enzymes, bromelain and papain are useful in treating common stomach ailments, including bloating, constipation, indigestion, and irritable bowel syndrome. They act directly to help the body digest protein, and their anti-inflammatory properties can decrease swelling, bleeding, and inflammation in the colon. Because of this, bromelain and papain preparations can be especially useful for people with Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, celiac disease, or ulcers (Russo).

More Jokes from McCain Campaign
Elizabeth Holmes reports from Wilkes-Barre, Pa. on the presidential race.
Things are hard for John McCain and his campaign these days, what with Barack Obama gallivanting through the Middle East and Europe stealing all the attention.
So the campaign decided: why not have a little fun with it?
On Tuesday evening, a campaign staffer handed out ID badges to the traveling press with the "McCain Press Corps" moniker and a picture of the Statue of Liberty. But they added a little something special. The wearers of these badges were dubbed members of the "JV Squad" with the following text: "Left Behind to Report in America."
Flip it over and the fun continues. A picture of a beret-clad Frenchman with the Eiffel Tower was paired with the same saying in francais. (Some reporters, however, could not take the joke for a joke and attempted to assess the accuracy of the English-to-French translation.)
This isn't the first round of fun they've had. The badges come on the heels of a Web video, courtesy of the McCain campaign, which makes fun of the media for fawning over Obama. One McCain staffer said it was their attempt to combat "His Hopeness" – another jab at the Illinois senator and his rhetoric. Before Obama left the U.S., the McCain campaign released a memo in a font and style often used by Obama with the title "Obama's Travel Briefing." It also had the image Obama used that resembles that of the presidential seal.
Perhaps they see the trip like the unicorn-rainbow sequence Jib Jab offered up in the popular "Time for Some Campaignin" video?
The attention is expected to reach a fever pitch on Thursday, when hundreds of thousands are expected at an Obama appearance in Germany.

Departure of leading regional firm casts doubt over value of national network
Essex firm Fisher Jones Greenwood is to leave QualitySolicitors just 18 months after joining, it emerged yesterday, casting doubts over the potential of marketing collectives as a suitable response to the challenges set by new entrants.
Managing partner Paula Fowler said the 19-partner firm had "learnt a great deal" from its QS membership but it now wanted to "focus on developing our own regional brand in Essex and London rather than remain as part of a national brand."
Fowler said there was "no single right way" to meet the challenges in the legal services market and that "we are all feeling our way".
Explaining the reason for the withdrawal, she said feedback from clients and professional connections has given the firm "confidence that the Fisher Jones Greenwood brand is sufficiently strong in our target markets to go it alone."
QualitySolicitors founder Craig Holt sold the business to Palamon in October 2011, the first private equity investment in the legal services sector following the entry into force of the Legal Services Act.
Just over a year later the franchise network announced it was teaming up with US legal platform LegalZoom to launch a complete web-to-store offering.
To date there has been no further move on the partnership or date set for the launch of LegalZoom in the UK.
Senior partner Tony Fisher said being part of "the first credible national network of independent law firms" provided the firm with a real boost.
"All of our staff and partners are now fully focused on continuing the growth of Fisher Jones Greenwood as a regional law firm delivering a full range of legal services to both private and business clients."
The firm still has a significant legal aid department, with contracts in family, crime, housing, community care, asylum claims, and public law.

But she couldn't tell her story without crying.
Her son was diagnosed with schizophrenia as a teenager. For seven years she's watched him deteriorate. Even with insurance, it's difficult to get long-term treatment. She can't find doctors in her network who take new patients. Getting reimbursed is a nightmare.
"I'm afraid I'm going to lose him," she said between heavy sighs.
Since last week, when I wrote about the distressing shortage of mental health care in America, I've heard many stories like hers. The stories make me sad. They also make me angry.
Why does our health care system treat diseases of the brain differently from diseases of other organs like the heart or the lungs? Why should mentally ill people endure more layers of bureaucracy than other sick people?
Can't get treatment
"People in a mental health crisis are the least able to battle the system," said Karen Vicari of the Mental Health Association in California. As a result, they wind up in emergency rooms - or on the streets or in jail - because they can't get treatment.
It wasn't supposed to be that way. In 1999, California passed a law that said health insurance policies had to provide the same level of coverage for major mental illnesses as they provide for other diseases.
The 1999 law only covers a few illnesses, such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. And it's vague about what constitutes equal coverage. For example, if you have a heart attack, your hospital stay, prescription drugs and follow-up visits are probably insured. But mental illness may require extended residential treatment and years of therapy. Most insurance plans won't pay for that.
The situation could improve soon, though, thanks to a freshman assemblyman from San Jose.
Back when he was on the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors, Jim Beall was a strong advocate for the mentally ill. Now that he's in Sacramento, he's trying to plug the loopholes in the 1999 law. He introduced AB423, which expands coverage for just about all mental illnesses, including substance abuse. And it requires new health care plans to cover diagnosis and all necessary treatment.
Beall's bill will be heard Tuesday by the Assembly's health committee. The health insurance industry is likely to oppose it, but he hopes strong support from the medical community and social-services agencies will carry it through.
`Good medicine'
"The cure for the mental health crisis is good medicine," Beall said. "We've recognized that it's more cost-effective to deal with problems early, instead of paying the social costs of prisons, domestic violence and unemployment."
AB423 addresses only one small part of the mental health crisis, of course. Don't have insurance? With counties cutting back on services, it's harder and harder to get help.
And what about mentally ill people who don't know they are ill, or who refuse treatment?
"The ill brain has difficulty knowing that it's ill," said John Mitchem, president of the local chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness.
Mitchem raises a difficult question, one that goes to the heart of our discomfort with mental illness.
How can we allow people we care about to refuse treatment for mental illness? We wouldn't allow people with Alzheimer's disease to wander the streets and sleep under bridges.
"Alzheimer's is a brain disease," he said. "Why do we treat people with other brain diseases differently?"
For information about AB423, e-mail Assemblyman Jim Beall at firstname.lastname@example.com. For information about mental health patient rights, log on to the Mental Health Association in California Web site (www.mhac.org).

Post subject: PLEASE has anyone been through this?early scan shown no sign
i worked out that i would be six weeks
pregnant, going from the first day of my last period!
i had some light bleeding (only when i wiped myself) on sat.
after going to A&E on sat Cblood took, and hormone levels high), they refered me to the early prgnancy clinic, where i have been today.
i had an ultra sound and internal scan, but there was no sign of pregnancy, my blood was taken again and was high, so i have to go back on wed for blood taken again! they said it could be possible that it has not come out of the tube yet (meaning i am earlier pregnant than i thought) or an etopic pregnancey! has anybody else been threw this??
please comment i am trying t stay positive but my worlds crumbling
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2008 4:22 pm
Post subject:
if it was an etopic pregnancy then wouldn't u be in some sort of pain or discomfort??? i had pains when i was only 4 weeks, so had just found out i was pregnant. i had the blood test done on a wednesday and again on that friday to check that the pregnancy hormone had doubled, which is what its supposed to do every 48hrs.
everything had doubled and was told everything was as planned but i had a 7.5week scan just to check on baby, and all was fine again, and baby had strong heart beat.
i never got the internal scan, or a normal scan when i was 4 weeks as i was told that everything would be too small to see anything.
i really wouldn't worry as when u had ur last period it could have been 2 weeks untill u actually concived, meaning u'd be 4 weeks instead of 6.
have u been bleeding since or heavily at all??
hope everything goes well for you, and wish u the best of luck, please let us know how u get on.

Hi dawniey22,
Know what you're going through!!! Had scan yesterday as had bleeding and pains. Thought i was 6 weeks and all they could see was a 4mm sac so said I was only 5 weeks. They did warn me that they might not see anything. They said that dates can be out as thay are only an estimate. If your hormones are right and you've done a test then you must be much earlier than you think. They can't see anything until 5 weeks. I know it's easy so say don't panic but just try to take their advice as they know what they are looking for.
Take it easy x

Post subject: How strange?!
The first day of my last period was 13th Jan too!!! Thought I was 6 weeks and only just 5 weeks. I had my hormones checked and called the EPU today and they said that hormone levels were right. They said that if hormones are right then that's enough to say everything is going ok. Have you got another scan booked in? You may have been just under 5 weeks and if so they wouldn't have seen anything - any sac would be under 4mm and v difficult to see. Things happen v quickly as within a week you can see the sac and then another 1/2 week later you can see the 'yolk' and in another week they will see a heartbeat - amazing isn't it!!!

it sounds like you are only 4 weeks i went and had a scan where i should of been 6 weeks due to my period, but they couldnt see anything, anyway had blood tests and they doubled so 2 weeks later i had another scan and they seen the baby and heartbeat it was great as all sorts was going through my head like etopic or was i not even preg at all, so just dont panick im very sure its gonna be ok for you, good luck and have a lovelly preg xox

Post subject: me2
god yea. i went to hospital with kidney pains(before i knew i was pregnant) thinking that i had kidney stones. they took blood and said my hormone levels were high-indicating a pregnancy! they sent me to another hospital straight away to have tests done as they thought i was having an ectopic pregnancy, but when i had a scan you couldnt really see anything( i was only 4.5 weeks pregnant) so they told me to come back in a few days and have blood taken again. basically, when you have your blood test a couple of days later, your hormone levels should have at least doubled(mine did)in this case-the baby is in the correct place, if your blood has not even doubled, something is wrong e.g ectopic pregnancy. hope i might of helped a bit xxxx
