Thanks to its beautiful location on a slight hill above Lake Murten, the 800-year-old Zähringer town of Murten in the canton of Fribourg has become a popular tourist destination. In the evening, you really must watch the sunset over the lake, with magnificent views of Mont Vully and the Jura.
A town wall encircles the little town protectively. However, for a long time now the almost entirely preserved wall, the only one in Switzerland which you can walk all the way round, has not had to resist attackers, but rather has offered visitors a magnificent view of the nearby lake and the roofs of the Old Town. The museum in Murten has a large collection encompassing 6000 years of the history of the town and surrounding region (open from April to October).
Anyone discovering this holiday region on wheels or roller-blades will certainly get their money's worth. With 170 km of cycle paths and 90 km of tracks for inline skaters, they could hardly ask for more. There is one particularly popular cycle route, especially suitable for families, going from the medieval Murten to the 2000-year-old Avenches and back, while another takes you all round the lake in about two hours, or can be extended as far as Mont Vully.
Murten offers lots of opportunities for excursions by boat, on foot or by bike. The boat trip from Murten to the wine-growing region of Vully takes about an hour. You can also do trips taking in two or three lakes, by passing through canals to the lakes of Neuchâtel and Biel-Bienne. Lake Murten is a popular bathing lake, where the temperature becomes pleasantly warm quite early in the summer. Sailing, windsurfing, water-skiing, wakeboarding, surf-biking, rowing, pedalo boating, canoeing, lake kayaking and angling – you can do almost anything here.
The slopes of Mont Vully offer a wonderful panoramic view of the Jura and the Alps. On these slopes they cultivate refreshing white wines which go wonderfully well with fish from the lake. The Vully wines can be tasted in wine cellars and tasting centres.
- Medieval Old Town – with arcades and the only intact town wall in Switzerland that you can walk round.
- Boat trip – many opportunities on Lake Murten and on the lakes of Neuchâtel and Biel-Bienne, connected by canals.
- Papilliorama-Nocturama in Kerzers – tropical gardens with exotic butterflies and lots of nocturnal animals.
- Vegetable Path on the Grosse Moos – in the "vegetable garden of Switzerland", in the triangle between the lakes of Murten, Neuchâtel and Biel-Bienne, grow 60 different sorts of vegetable, many of which can be seen during the signposted cycle ride.
- Vully Wine Path – find out about aspects of wine-growing on the slopes of the Vully during a walk lasting about an hour, so you still have enough time to taste the wine too.
Top Events
- Slow-up Murtensee – on one Sunday, 32 km of roads around Lake Murten are car-free for the use of cyclists and inline skaters (May/June).
- Swim across the lake – you have to swim at least 3 km to reach Murten from the opposite bank (July).
- Avenches Opera Festival – performances of well-known operas in the setting of the Roman amphitheatre, the perfect setting for such magnificent scenes (July).
- Open-air cinema – film fun against the idyllic backdrop of the lake (August).
- Murten Classics – major works of classical music performed in the castle courtyard and Old Town (August).
- Rock Oz'Arènes – open-air music festival in the amphitheatre at Avenches and at other venues (August).
- Vully Wine-growing Festival – an ideal opportunity to try out the wines of the region at leisure (September).

Laughing just to hear my self laugh
Saying some ridiculous unfunny pun which has no actual meaning other than a play on words. similar to a malaprop, but said intentionally just to see if people are actually listening. Example saying that someone suffered a "mighteyo collabular infraction" instead of a "Myocardial infarction" or simply a heart attack, would give me cause to "ljthmsl"

Two women were forced to crawl out the back window of a car they were in Thursday afternoon when an Oklahoma City road gave way beneath them.
The woman were driving on North Villa Avenue near Northwest 2nd Street when they said they saw a puddle of water in front of them. The women did not realize how large the puddle was and when they attempted to drive through it the road gave way and created a large sinkhole filled with water.
The women said water began rushing into the car and they were forced to crawl out the back.
Crews were able to extract the car from the sinkhole.
Debbie Ragan with the Oklahoma City Water Department said a 10-inch water main break caused Villa Avenue to erode.

Twenty-eight Senecas will be running mates of Cyrus "Cy" Schindler, who is seeking the office of Seneca Nation president as leader of a new organization called the Peoples' Party.
Schindler, 64, a retired ironworker and cigarette business owner who served as Seneca president from November 2000 to November 2002, is running against four other candidates in the tribe's Nov. 6 election.
Maxine Snyder Jimerson will be the Peoples' Party candidate for treasurer, and Marilyn J. Anderson will run for clerk. Seeking posts on the Tribal Council will be Sandra Hill, Holly Connors-Jimerson, Ronald Jimerson, Ross Ledsome, Jason Franco, Richard Jemison, Steven Schindler and Elmer Steeprock Jr.
Other candidates are Timothy Ledsome and Nathaniel John, chief marshals; Justin Kennedy, Joshua King, Michael Jimerson, Galen Highley, Gregory Jimerson and James Luke, marshals; Ronald Lemon, Marsha Thompson, Donald White Jr., Julie Farner, Cheryll White and Sandra Jemison, assessors; Judy Jimerson and Arletta Stevens, poormasters; and Evelyn George-Shongo and Peter Longboat, highway commissioners.

Other candidates for president are Richard E. Nephew, Barry Snyder Sr. and Cochise RedEye.

Information on the history of the Chesapeake Bay Program and efforts to restore the Bay's health.
Created by ChesapeakeStat on May 18, 2010
Last updated: 04/04/11 at 05:39 PM
The Executive Order Strategy identified 14 environmental outcomes to be achieved by 2025 supporting four themes: restore clean water, recover habitats, sustain fish & wildlife, conserve land, and increase public access.
Prior to 2017
Focus in Phase III Plans Is 2025, Ensuring Practices in Place by Then for Restoration of the Bay and Its Tidal Waters.
The FLC plans to release the first annual progress report early in 2012. (Federal fiscal year 2011 is the first full implementation year for this strategy. Fiscal Year 2011 ends on September 30, 2011.)
By December 2011, the Federal Leadership Committee will establish their first set (and states will establish 2nd set) of two-year milestones covering calendar years 2012 and 2013. Increasing government accountability: To increase accountability, federal agencies will establish milestones every two years for actions to meet environmental goals. These will complement the two-year milestones of the states. Every year, agencies will also issue an action plan outlining work to be done in the next 12 months and issue a report to evaluate progress.
Along with final plans, states and D.C. submit for 30-day comment period any intention to modify Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) allocations.
EPA revises watershed model with results of two model updates (nutrient management effectiveness, and suburban land characteristics) and removes or reduces safety factor.
States and D.C. submit draft Phase II watershed implementation plans. Plans reflect any updates and finer scale of planned actions.
EPA publishes final Bay TMDL, and will ensure 'pollution diet' and actions to meet it stay on aggressive pace.
The States and DC complete final Phase 1 implementation plans.
The Federal Leadership Committee plans to release the first annual Action Plan, per the Executive Order issued in May 2009.
The state and basin loads for sediment are determined for the Bay TMDL.
Using existing models, EPA divides overall pollution diet for nitrogen and phosphorous among the states and D.C.; includes a "safety factor" for potential load shifts from two model updates.
Draft Bay TMDL developed and offered for public comment. Continuation of regular two-way communication on developments with the Bay TMDL, including exhaustive outreach last fall, state stakeholder engagements, and monthly webinars.
States and D.C. complete draft Phase I Watershed Implementation Plans. No requirement for preliminary plans.
The Executive Order strategy is released by the Federal Leadership Committee.
At the Principals' Staff Committee, the EPA Reaffirms Federal-State Commitment to Establish Bay pollution diet, or Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL), and will ensure "pollution diet" and actions to meet it stay on an aggressive pace.
EPA provided the six states in the Chesapeake Bay watershed and the District of Columbia with rigorous expectations for jurisdictions to reduce pollution in streams, rivers, and the Bay to meet water quality standards. EPA's expectations fulfill the mandate of the EO, which calls for a new accountability framework that guides federal, state, and local water quality restoration efforts.
The Chesapeake Executive Council pledged to get all Bay management mechanisms necessary to restore the Bay in place by 2025. Part of this new strategy to speed up the pace of Bay restoration and become more accountable included the setting of specific two-year milestones for each jurisdiction to reduce pollution to the Bay and its rivers. These milestones will also contain "contingencies" and "consequences" for falling short.
States established their first set of two-year milestones covering calendar years 2009 through 2011.
President Obama signed Executive Order (EO) 13508 on Chesapeake Bay Protection and Restoration. The EO has brought the Chesapeake Bay Program to a new level of interagency coordination and cooperation. The EO established a Federal Leadership Committee for the Chesapeake Bay chaired by EPA and including six other federal agencies. The Chesapeake Bay Program Office is supporting implementation of the new EO.
The Chesapeake Bay Program partners approved and implemented a new organizational structure aligned with the Chesapeake Action Plan goals better emphasizing and focusing the critical goals and priorities of the program.
The Agency submitted a report to Congress summarizing the Chesapeake Action Plan. The plan was intended to enhance coordination of and accountability for the full spectrum of federal, state, local, and private partners' actions to restore the watershed and the Bay.
The governor of West Virginia added his signature to the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).
The governors of New York and Delaware committed to the water quality goals of the Chesapeake 2000 Agreement by signing a multi-jurisdictional Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Executive Council.
The Bay Program partners came together to sign the Chesapeake 2000 agreement. This comprehensive document set the course for the Bay's restoration and protection for the next decade and beyond.
Federal officials from 25 agencies and departments signed the Agreement of Federal Agencies on Ecosystem Management in the Chesapeake Bay. This document outlined specific goals and commitments by federal agencies on federal lands, as well as new cooperative efforts by federal agencies.
In the 1992 Amendments to the 1987 Chesapeake Bay Agreement, Bay Program partners agreed to attack nutrients at their source: upstream in the Bay's tributaries. The Bay Program also began reevaluating its Basinwide Toxics Reduction Strategy to better understand the impact chemical contaminants have on Bay life.
In the 1987 Chesapeake Bay Agreement, the Executive Council set a goal to reduce nitrogen and phosphorous entering the Bay by 40 percent by the year 2000. Agreeing to numeric goals with specific deadlines was unprecedented in 1987, but the practice has become a hallmark of the Bay Program.
The first federal agency agreements are signed between EPA and the US Army Corps of Engineers (COE), the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), the US Geological Survey (USGS) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

The first Chesapeake Executive Council meeting is held.
The Chesapeake Bay Program, a unique voluntary partnership, is established with the signing of the first Chesapeake Bay Agreement by Maryland, Pennsylvania and Virginia; the District of Columbia; the Chesapeake Bay Commission; and the EPA. The agreement establishes the Chesapeake Executive Council as the chief policy-making authority in the Bay region. Executive Council members are the governors of Maryland, Pennsylvania and Virginia, the mayor of the District, the EPA administrator, and the chair of the Chesapeake Bay Commission. In December of 1983, the original Chesapeake Bay Agreement, a simple, one-page pledge by the partners to work together to restore the Bay, was signed in 1983 by the Chesapeake Executive Council.

Similar to explosive diarea but more intense and can cause more pain in the anus
I got mudbutt from that roastbeef sandwich!
بواسطة tiweryopo فبراير/شباط 11, 2008
(muhdh - buht) n. med. (usu. pre. by 'the') Mud Butt is a common affliction of the anus and the glutteal crevice, affecting mainly (but not limited to) "heavies". The condition usually occurs 30 to 45 minutes after defecation, especially if sufferer engages in physical activity within this time. Sweat and some remaining feces (though one's wiping habits may be immactulate) mix in the glutteal crevice, causing mild discomfort and, if not treated, a raw ass.
See how Rico is walking funny? He took a dum about 30 minutes ago. I bet he's got the mud butt.

the true "definition" of mudbutt,(all the rest are other peoples versions) is: the condition of the anal region where ones crevice between the ass cheeks becomes hot and saucy due to sweat, buildup of underwear residue, and poor wiping abilities. It is almost certain to happen to anyone on a real hot summer day if they:
1)wear dirty and/or heavy clothes
2)do not shower
3)have recently deficated
4)have participated in exercise

The Appiano, Italy, native was fantastic in the No. 1 Mountaineers' 4700-4628 victory over No. 11 Murray State on Feb. 9, her final match at the WVU Rifle Range. Zublasing shot a winning score of 594 (199 prone, 197 standing, 198 kneeling) in smallbore. The mark is one shot better than the previous Mountaineer record of 593, a mark she hit twice before and a record first shot by Olympic Gold medalist Nicco Campriani in 2010. Zublasing's aggregate score of 1193 also is a school record, besting Campriani's mark of 1192 set in 2011.
In addition to her two records, Zublasing also shot a winning 599 (100-100-100-100-100-99) in air rifle, one shot short of the school record. Zublasing's success comes as she prepares to defend her 2012 NCAA air rifle title at this year's national championships, set for March 8-9, in Columbus, Ohio.

Suffering multiple injuries after a serious crash on Tuesday's opening day of the Alpine World Championships in Austria – and facing surgery – the most successful skier in U.S. history vows not only to compete in next year's Sochi Olympics, but to be competing again this November.
"Her goal is to be back by Lake Louise, stronger than she's ever been," Patrick Riml, Alpine program director for the United States ski team, said Wednesday, reports The New York Times.
Vonn plans to participate in November's races set for Lake Louise, Alberta, which will be the first speed events of the women's World Cup season. She's been a winner there 14 times before, including victories this season in two downhills and a super-G.
In her own words, through a statement released to Wednesday's Today show, Vonn thanked the medical team that looked after her (initially at the scene of the crash, then at the local hospital), as well as her fans for "the outpouring of support." She also said, "I plan on returning to Vail as soon as I can to have the necessary surgeries, [and] I can assure you that I will work as hard as humanly possible to be ready to represent my country next year in Sochi."

While doctors have speculated that Vonn could face six to eight months of recuperation and rehab before she's back on skis, U.S. speed coach Chip White told NBC News, "It was a very aggressive crash, [though] it's an injury that's not unusual in ski racing."
About Vonn, he said, "She was back in the hotel a couple hours after the accident. She was in good spirits, starting to plot out her rehab and next step, so I'm confident that we will see Lindsey Vonn in Sochi next year."

LEETONIA - With only three league games remaining in the season, every one of them is a must win for the Wellsville Tigers if they want to erase a one-game deficit in the ITCL lower tier title chase.
Down by four at the half, the Tigers rallied with a 25-point third quarter to to claim a 74-68 win on the road against Leetonia .
"We didn't have a great day and we started off pretty slow," said Wellsville junior Camden Douglas. "We came back out a little better in the second half, but nowhere near we needed to be"
Douglas finished with a game-high 19 points, including a crucial three-pointer to open the fourth quarter that pushed the Tigers' lead back to double digits.
The Tigers (13-3, 8-2 in the ITCL lower tier) and Bears (7-10, 4-7) were involved in a high scoring affair earlier this season on Dec. 18, which saw Wellsville come away with an 87-70 victory.
"I was hoping that it wouldn't be as high scoring as last time. I wanted to play better defense but it didn't happen tonight," Douglas said. " We get beat off of the first step and are slow beating them back to the spot."
The 13th win of the season for the Tigers was a small step to keep alive the hope of securing the first league title since 2008 for the school. After a loss to Southern Local on Jan. 18 appeared to set the Tigers too far back, they received help in the form of a McDonald loss to Lowellville, which kept alive the hope for a win in a rematch in Wellsville's final league contest of the year on the Tigers' home floor. McDonald knocked off Wellsville earlier this season, 81-79.
First, however, comes a matchup with those same Rockets that edged McDonald. "Every game is a must win now as far as the league goes, it's just like the tournament," Wellsville coach David "Bug" Thompson said. "We have McDonald again on the eighth, but we have to get through Lowellville on Friday."
If Wellsville is to come out with win number 14 in its' last league game on the road, their emphasis on defense will need to be keener than their effort on Tuesday night.
"We had a good come back in the second half but we shouldn't have to go in there and talk about that," Thompson said. "We needed this day undercontrol take care of the ball and start running our offense. We needed to play better defense. We still didn't do that, but we got by."
Leetonia made things easier for the Wellsville's turnabout in the second half by missing 14 total free-throws - seven in the first half and seven in the second.
"That's the first time all year that we have missed free-throws like that," Leetonia coach Eric Whitmer said. "When you miss the front ends of one-and-one, it's just like a turnover. Tonight we went to the basket in earned our way to the free-throw line, but we just didn't cash in. Wellsville has the athletes to turn it back on you really quick."
As the game wore on, and those crucial missed free-throws began to add up, it placed an even larger microscope on defensive miscues that the Bears made.
"We made some mistakes defensively where we doubled down when I really didn't want them to double down," Whitmer said. "That left the Douglas kid open to knock down some shots and against the good teams, that's a mistake you can't make. Against the lesser teams, the kids don't even realize it's a mistake."
With open looks, Douglas didn't hesitate to knock them down.
"It helps a lot that I can make myself a better scorer," Douglas said. "But as a team, we have to keep our composure and play as a team. We focus on one-game at a time, that's how we approach it in practice."
Nate Scott also joined Douglas in double digits, piling up 18 points and collecting five rebounds. Seth Bradford added a double-double effort of his own, netting 12 points and pulling down 10 rebounds.
Brendon Carr also contributed 10 points.
The task for Leetonia doesn't lighten as they await league-leading McDonald to arrive on Friday. Thompson said that with the effort put forth from the Bears on Tuesday against his team, he wouldn't mind a little help coming from Leetonia on Friday.
"If they play like they played tonight and she like they shot against us they can beat them," Thompson said. "I'm hoping they can, that would be nice to win it out right instead of splitting it."
WELLSVILLE SCORING: Nate Scott 6-4-18, Camden Douglas 6-4-19, Jordan Sloan 2-0-4, Seth Bradford 6-0-12, Brendon Carr 5-0-10, Antonio Fultz 4-1-9, Tyshawn Franklin 1-0-2. TOTALS: 30, 9-15: 74

Following Stanford University's recent testing on Honda's Fit electric vehicles, researchers at the university are now developing a new wireless system that will magnetically charge your EVs while you are driving.
The idea came after researchers recognized the disadvantages of electric vehicles' limited driving ranges which may use less energy but run at a weaker strength. For example, the Nissan Leaf is only capable of driving less than 100 miles on a single full charge. To fully recharge the Leaf's battery, users will have to wait approximately 10 hours and cannot bet on charging stations to be around on long trips. These drawbacks with EVs have not been addressed to date, discouraging the general market from making the move from traditional cars.
To combat this problem, Stanford researchers have created a "charge-as-you-drive" network which utilizes copper coils that will be embedded in highway roads and under the belly of the EVs. The coils will be tuned to the same natural frequency and as the car moves, a process called "magnetic resonance coupling" occurs, meaning when the road coils that are connected to an electric current power up, they send electricity to the receiving coil in the car and thus charging the EV's battery.
"What makes this concept exciting is that you could potentially drive for an unlimited amount of time without having to recharge," said Richard Sassoon, the managing director of the Stanford Global Climate and Energy Project (GCEP), which funded the research. "You could actually have more energy stored in your battery at the end of your trip than you started with."
It could be years before we see these electromagnetic roads implemented into our daily lives as researchers continue to ensure this process will not harm drivers, passengers, or affect the computer systems that control steering, navigation, and air conditioning. It is also imperative for researchers to confirm mobile phones, credit cards and other electronic gadgets will not be thrown off by this proposed flow of magnetic currents.
Another issue researchers may face with electric vehicles is the combustion emissions EVs produce when electricity is generated. A recent study at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville found that EVs in China may leave an even larger carbon footprint than gasoline-powered cars because 85 percent of electricity production in the country comes from fossil fuels, with about 90 percent of that from coal. In the United States, coal accounts for an average of approximately 46 percent of electricity production across the 50 states. Additionally, battery-making factories also largely contribute to pollution due to the chemicals involved in the process. So when you add this with the fact that you'll deplete natural resources each time you have to recharge an EV every other 100 miles, and compare it to burning up gasoline in a conventional car, the result may end up just as harmful as each other.
Though electric vehicles and their charging systems are not perfect, with new developments underway, the technology could still be a safer bet toward a greener future.

Any new smartphone has a gimmick. Whether it's wireless charging, fingerprint scanning or even eye-tracking, there's always an amazing feature you "can't live without." But let's be honest: many of those features you really can live without. Go to www.komando.com/tips/index.aspx?id=14949 for features you don't need.
On the other hand, some of the futuristic technology available in next-generation smartphones is really useful. But which features do you need in your toolbox and which are just the icing on the cake? This definitive list ranks 10 useful features your smartphone needs to have.
1. Long-lasting battery
Your smartphone could have a shrink-ray or turn lead into gold and it would still be useless without juice. There are ways to boost the battery life of your gadget, but at the end of the day, a larger battery is going to last you longer. Go to www.komando.com/tips/index.aspx?id=15322 for ways to boost battery life.
The Droid Maxx is the undisputed king of batteries. It will get you close to 48 hours of use. The Galaxy Note 3 has a respectable battery life at 12-16 hours of use, but it's still well behind the Maxx. The iPhone 5S is around 10 hours and the Samsung Galaxy S4 brings up the rear at 9 hours.
2. Fast processing
Speed is still the ultimate prize in the smartphone arms race. You notice when apps lag or when swiping takes an eternity.
The iPhone 5s is the fastest smartphone on the market. Its A7 chip is even light-years ahead of blazing fast phones like the Samsung Galaxy S4 or the surprisingly quick Motorola Moto X. But don't despair if your phone feels a little sluggish. Go to www.komando.com/tips/index.aspx?id=13701 for ways to speed it up.
3. Crystal-clear display
Smartphones are as much about enjoying media as they are about communicating. You watch movies, play games and view photos on your mobile screen and you want the crispest display around.
In this case, that award goes to the Samsung Galaxy S4. It has the best resolution and most pixels per inch. The LG G2 and Nokia Lumia 1020 are close behind, but it's Samsung's super AMOLED display technology that sets it ahead.
While screen on the iPhone 5s and 5c can't match the size or pixel density of their competitors, it's still a solid high-resolution display and many people prefer it for its color accuracy.
4. A great camera
You don't have to be a pro photographer to see the difference between modern phone cameras and the ones on your old flip-phone. A great camera is important for more than just great photos! You can use your camera for some surprising other things, like visual search. Go to www.komando.com/tips/index.aspx?id=15363 for tips.
Nokia's Lumia 1020 includes an elite ZEISS lens, image stabilization and a whopping 41 megapixels. It's clearly the best camera phone because it's more camera than phone!
The iPhone 5s and the HTC One are also very respectable shooters. Their image sensors have larger pixels, which gives you better color range and excellent low-light images.
Near Field Communications allows your smartphone to transmit data to other phones and tablets in the vicinity. It's really handy for sharing pictures and music. You can even use it to pay at stores and restaurants! Go to www.komando.com/tips/index.aspx?id=13330 for ways to turn your phone into a digital wallet.
Plenty of great Android and Windows phones offer NFC, but not Apple.
6. Multiple windows
You'd never settle for seeing just one window on your computer, why would you on your phone? Samsung Galaxy phones, as well as LG's G2, Optimus and Enact are superb at letting you see multiple apps at once. Other Android phones and the iPhone stick to displaying a single app at a time.
7. Storage space
Most smartphones come with anywhere between 16 and 32 gigabytes of storage. Extra space is a nice luxury, but these days you'll be saving most of your media in the cloud. Go to www.komando.com/tips/index.aspx?id=12810 for sites with the most storage space.
8. Remote control
How cool would it be to control your TV with your smartphone? You'll never search for the remote again! Phones like the HTC One and Samsung Galaxy S4 include Infrared transmitters as well as apps to help you control your TV. Of course, there are third-party infrared add-ons for the iPhone and other Android phones.
9. Fingerprint sensor
Apple's most gabbed-about feature on the new 5s was definitely the fingerprint sensor. It's not really any more secure than traditional lockscreen passcodes, but it does save you time. Go to www.komando.com/coolsites/index.aspx?id=15187 for a story on how a little girl found a way around the sensor.
The HTC One Max Android phone also has one, but few other phones do at this time.
10. Wireless charging
This is a handy feature for those of you who don't want to plug in your phone. Just set it down and it's charging! And don't worry; wireless charging is perfectly safe. Go to www.komando.com/tips/index.aspx?id=13726 for how wireless charging works.
Still don't know which phone you should buy? Go to http://www.komando.com/buyguide/index.aspx?id=7666 to check out my ultimate smartphone buying guide.

The Seneca County General Health District Board of Health suspended Good Times Tavern's food service operation license at Thursday night's board meeting.
Environmental Division Director Laura Wallrabenstein said the business owner did a significant remodel of its kitchen without a plan review.
Good Times Tavern, located on SR 4 in Attica, has until Feb. 8 to submit an appeal on the suspension.
Wallrabenstein said an issue for the company is to get approval from the Ohio EPA for a septic tank.
She said the tavern is allowed to be open until Feb. 8, when the suspension becomes effective, and will be allowed to remain open for the duration of the appeal process if the business owner chooses to appeal the suspension.
Wallrabenstein said the business does not put forth any health hazards, it just does not fit into compliance.
The board also approved a solid waste license for Sunny Farms for 2013, by a vote of 5-2.
The EPA filed an enforcement action against Sunny Farms for odor violations, Wallrabenstein said.
In "record time," the EPA and Sunny Farms have reached a settlement, and the landfill now is in compliance and eligible for the license it received from the board Thursday night.
Health commissioner Marjorie Broadhead also reported at the meeting the state of Ohio rejected a liquor license renewal for The Suburban Inn, a bar in Middleburg Heights, for a "blatant disregard of the Smoke Free Ohio Act."
In other business, the board approved:
A condemnation of 2197 S. Shamrock Court, Tiffin.
Rescinding condemnation of 212 Lincoln Road, Tiffin.
A contract with Seneca County Youth Center for nursing services.
A contract with Seneca County Board of Development Disability for the Fostoria building lease.
A contract with Harvey, Abens, Iosue Co. LPA for management consultants.
A resolution to approve the safe routes to school project collaboration.
The hiring of Christine Huth as WIC director.
The hiring of Jaime Cole as WIC breastfeeding peer.
A n advance payment request.

Sligo fiddle (Kevin Burke) meets Kerry melodeon (Jackie Daly) in a beautiful album that sowed the seeds of Patrick Street. Eavesdropper captures a memorable session from two major figures in traditional Irish music, and though they possess different...more
Jackie Daly is credited with revitalizing the image of the accordion and concertina by taking them out of the dance band and into the trad band.
Daly was also a founding member of some of the most prominent Irish bands since the mid-70s including De Dannan, Arcady, Buttons & Bows, and Patrick Street. Born in the Sliabh Luachra region of Ireland in 1945, he remains one of the most emulated carriers of the Sliabh Luachra-style tradition.
Throughout his career, Daly surrounded himself with distinguished fiddlers with whom he would play in tight unison. This fiddle-accordion duet style has now been imitated across Celtic music micro-genres. After playing with Kevin Burke on Burke's debut solo album,If the Cap Fits the duo continued to play, tour, and record together throughout the 20th century and into the next.
Forty years after If the Cap Fits was first released, Kevin Burke is still considered to be the most prominent living master of Sligo-style Irish fiddling. Burke has recorded over twenty albums, taught at countless camps, universities, and summer schools, and has toured extensively all over the world. A founding member of Patrick Street, Planxty, Bothy Band, The Celtic Fiddle Festival, and Open House, Burke is instrumental in keeping the Sligo music tradition alive.
Together, Daly and Burke founded the band Patrick Street with Andy Irvine and Arty McGlynn. Before leaving the band in 2007, Daly had played with them for 21 years, on all of their nine recordings, and at countless worldwide performances.

$1 million in awards given to workers under investigation
Some officials at the U.S. General Services Administration seem to think piling outrage upon outrage is the appropriate response to scandal.
Earlier this year it was learned dozens of GSA officials misspent more than $1 million in taxpayers' money on a lavish "conference" near Las Vegas. Then videos featuring GSA employees bragging about waste surfaced.
Now it has been learned that since 2008, the agency handed out more than $1 million in bonuses to employees under investigation for misconduct. One collected $76,000 in cash attaboys during a five-year period.
A Senate investigation found at least 84 GSA employees received bonuses while they were being investigated.
The GSA's reaction to lawmakers finding out about the bonuses was that a "top-to-bottom review" is being conducted. Uh-huh.
And once it is completed it will be back to business as usual at the GSA. Upset lawmakers will forget about the scandal just as soon as the headlines change.
But they shouldn't.

The 25-year-old Girls star is set to wed her boyfriend of three years, Ricky Van Veen, her rep confirms to PEOPLE exclusively.
The daughter of NBC news anchor Brian Williams met the College Humor co-founder, 33, through mutual friends and told Glamour earlier this month that she would "walk away from" her career in order to have kids.
"I'd love to be a mom – and not have to bring my kids into my trailer … Or a balance [of both]," said Williams, who plays Marnie on the hit HBO show. "But you've [got to] call it on the fly to a certain extent."
In an interview with Larry King in January, Williams admitted that her boyfriend and friends were getting used to her newfound fame, and were "very good at taking cell phone pictures" with fans.
And when asked by King what her dad thought of Van Veen, Williams smiled as she replied, "He likes him a lot."

Protocals are out:
Only one couple got a level 4 on the rhumba sequences, unlike GPF when they were giving them out like candy. It was the Chinese pair of Yu and Wang. RANDOM.
Protocals are out:
Only one couple got a level 4 on the rhumba sequences, unlike GPF when they were giving them out like candy. It was the Chinese pair of Yu and Wang. RANDOM.
As expected, no level fours for steps for the top four.
D/W: Level threes for steps, level fours for lift/twizzles
V/M: Level threes for steps and twizzles (!), level four for lift
ACTUALLY, the only difference in scoring between the top two teams are the twizzles - other four elements had the exact same GOE. Whoa. V/M got 1.21 for level three twizzles, D/W got 1.00 for level four.
W/P: Level two for BOTH rhumbas, level three for steps, level four for lift/twizzles
Shibs: Level two for one Rhumba, level three for other and Circ steps, level four for lift/twizzles
Mrs P, H/D got one level four for the Rhumba too.
Other protocal notes:
Beyond the tough compulsory scoring, V/M also had level 3 on twizzles and circular step squence. D/W got a level three on their circular step sequence, four on the other two elements.
W/P and Shibs about even on their non-compulsory elements with level 4 on lift and twizzles at level 4 and circular step sequence at level 3.
Not a bad night, all in all, though it looked to me like the altitude hurt everyone tonight. I love how 1-2, 3-4 and 5-6 are so close together.
The difference between V/M and D/W in chemistry and Latin dance ability was really noticable for me tonight. D/W looked off to me, and V/M, even though it wasn't their best, way outclassed them in the Latin style department. I come from a dance background, and I've always thought that V/M's actual dance ability doesn't get the credit that it should. But, since they both made some small technical errors, and VM did win the PCS, I can live with the results. Had V/M gotten a level 4 on that twizzle sequence, they would have been first.
Glad to see W/P in 3rd, even though they didn't skate their best tonight. Closer between them and the Shibs than it was at the GP final, but the Shibs were stronger here and W/P were weaker than they were at that competition, so I guess it makes sense.
Now, here's where I get a little ticked off. I know P/I got killed on the levels, but H/D screwed up. A lot. You'd think that a fall would have lost them more points than a couple of differences in levels. Then again, P/I seem to be paying for their music choice over and over again. They're the one team that tried to do an actual traditional style rumba (sultry as opposed to sassy) and it seems to be hurting them. That being said, I was happy to see them looking more confident and getting more into the character than they have in the past. And ut's nice just to see Alexandra looking healthy after the nightmare year they have had.
The Shibs got a higher TES than W/P because one of their rumba sequences got a level 3 to W/P's 2, otherwise everything else had an identical base value. The judges, however, gave W/P slightly more GOE, and a lot more PCS.
Protocols up
No surprise:
Meryl & Charlie get level 3 for both rhumbas (no credit for you for second key point Meryl), and level 3 on the circular step.
Tessa & Scott likewise, but level 3 on the twizzles- not surprised; something looked odd there, careful for one thing.
Kaitlyn & Andrew got level 2 on the rhumbas and 3 on the step. Neither Kaitlyn nor Andrew hit the wide step/chocktaws to the tech panel's satsifaction
Maia & Alex got a 2 and a 3 on the rhumbas, 3 on the step. Dinged on PCS, and I would have had them higher unless they were significantly slower at the end of the dance, something all these couples suffered from a bit (altitude).
Hubbells got level 4 on one of the rhumbas. Level 2 on the others. 4 on the twizzles & lift, 2 on the step where Zach fell.
Paul & Islam got level 1 and Level 2 on the rhumbas. Two on the step, 3 on the twizzles. Thus hangs the tale of their scores. (I'm good with the rhumbas. They didn't look right to me either.)
I need to watch these over when I can breath myself to understand them better, but my take is that everyone was a bit ragged due to breathing difficulties (and last week at Nationals, neither the Shibs nor Meryl & Charlie were a bit out of breath.)
Why was Ricky Dornbush patching the ice at the end?
Is the USFSA trying to make an example out of him?
thanks for explaining scores! Gosh, I'm out of breath - what a final flight! Clearly, the altitude is cruel, and maybe the callers are tough too, but that was a heck of a lot of fun to watch. It is just so amazing to me how talented these dancers are - and V/M and D/W (Not suggesting anything with that order, btw) are just remarkable athletes and performers. Wow. I really can't wait for sea level (I'm assuming Nice is sea level) at worlds. This is like a great teaser/pre-view.
USFSA just tweeted that the Shibs, V-M and D-W will be the last three teams in the FD in that order.
Waited until the end and then thought for a bit. For me, Charlie White didn't make any attempt to put a "Latin" spin on the dance; it was exuberant, fastpaced, but, it didn't come across as Latin - blonde curls flying about and big grins spoil the impression of a Latin dance, and, overall, I am not a favor of energizer-Bunny choreography in a Rhumba number. I'm also less than fond of Meryl's dress - too orange, and too bare. Plus, she doesn't look Latin-ish either ... she always looks too prim and proper and although she tries to pull off sexy and sultry, it doesn't go over well. This is the first time I've watched them do the Rhumba, and I can see where the excitement is coming from ... but, I really would be happier if it was more "edges and edgy" than fast and furious. However, that's simply my personal preference, and I can absolutely understand where others prefer this to V/M or the others.
Virtue and Moir - dislike her dress, and I disliked the one from Canadians as well - I wish she would go back to the one from earlier in the year. This is too floofy and flouncy, and it doesn't do her any justice, plus, it's simply not the classy and stylish look that works well on Tessa. She's also trying a bit too hard to sell "sex", but, her hip movements give it a bit more of a Latin flavour. Scott ... thank goodness, back to black, and he does try to do Latin with the gelled hair, etc. Wish he would lose the snarly face stuff ... Yes, these are superficial points, but, I like to see a team - try - to make their physical appearance adapt to the style of the dance.
In terms of V/M's short program, yes, the reworking of the ending lift is not a good idea, however, it may work better when it is not being done in hi-altitude. If they were short of breath, having to do that physical effort at the end would be quite challenging. However, I was totally mesmerized by the flow in the Rhumba ... they looked like they were floating across the ice and everything was in control, and those edges - !
W/P - ick to the animal print, and ick to the cut on the dress, but, they do sell the idea very well. The Shibs - beautiful, and far more impressed than I've ever been by them. I agree that they will have to be careful with choreo, however, other brother and sister teams have done very well and these two are extremely talented and simply very effective in terms of connecting with the audience. V/M, D/W, W/P - all look very mature and polished, and it will be interesting to see how the Shibs score when they have a patina of maturity laid overtop of their skill and talent ...

DeLAND—Stetson University Director of Athletics Jeff Altier today announced that baseball Head Coach Pete Dunn has been suspended through this weekend's home series with Jacksonville.
The suspension occurs after Dunn was ejected for unsportsmanlike behavior exhibited at Florida State on April 23, and for the excessive use of profanity.
"We expect all of our coaches to exemplify the highest moral character, behavior and leadership," said Altier. "They are expected to adhere to strong ethical and integrity standards within the rules of the game."
Dunn is in his 35th season as head coach of the Hatters. Stetson is currently 18-28 overall and 7-11 in Atlantic Sun Conference play.
The University will have no further comment on this issue.


text: Well, that's exactly what you're doing when using an Evenflo soft carrier. The amazing connection between you and your little one gets even stronger when you hold her close in a soft carrier. Babies need lots of closeness and touching from you to feel secure, especially in the first months of their lives. There is even research showing that holding your baby close improves not only her feeling of security but also her mental development. When you move around with your baby in a soft carrier, you are introducing her to extra visual and auditory experiences that positively impact her development. Before birth, your baby was used to constant motion so, after she is born, keeping her with you in a soft carrier extends those soothing movements making her feel even more secure. There is nothing that can replace your touch, voice and face in your little one's emotional and cognitive development. So, forget all the myths about spoiling your baby by holding her too much. It's just not possible. Because when it comes to giving your child an important head start, holding and interacting with her are the best things you can do.

In November of 1934, an artist all of twenty rode his burro into the desert country of southeastern Utah, and never returned.
Eighty years later people are still asking questions: Had he fallen from a cliff, or drowned in a flood, or been murdered by rustlers? The artist was no greenhorn. Three years he had explored wilderness areas of New Mexico, Utah, Arizona, and Colorado, finding in such places more than adventure. He found enchantment.
Most enchanting of all was Utah. The canyons there were almost too beautiful to bear, or so he wrote in one of his last letters.
The artist gave his life to local color.

Berkeley County School District has its new Teacher of the Year: Lauren Reeder of Marrington Elementary.
The announcement was made during the Berkeley Chamber of Commerces 37th Annual Teacher of the Year Awards Friday morning at Trident Technical College in North Charleston.
Reeder has taught for six years, and has taught at Marrington Elementary for fifth and third grades since 2012.
I want my students to fall in love with learning, Reeder wrote in her application.
In Reeders application she spoke of a former second grade student of hers who had been shot and how she spent time in the hospital as he recovered.
He was going to survive and would eventually come back to my class. But right then, he needed someone who loved and cared for him, not someone to teach him about subtraction, the clouds, or how to stand in a straight line, but just someone to love him. And his teacher was the perfect person to do it, Reeder wrote. Teachers, I know you are tired. I know you are frustrated with the paperwork that seems to consume our profession. Get back to the root of why we entered this profession: those little faces looking back at you as they hang on your every word Ultimately, getting a chance to be one of the people in that childs life that loves them simply for being them.
Forty-one Teachers of the Year from every school in the district were selected as the best of their schools earlier this year. The two other finalists along with Reeder were Heather Ducker of Goose Creek High and Carolyn Hill Mullinax of Boulder Bluff Elementary.

This alphabetical series of columns is coming to an end, and the last few letters of the alphabet present a challenge.
Today we deal with the letter X, and the only word that comes directly to mind is xerophyte. These are plants that are adapted especially to withstand long periods of drought, or to grow in conditions where there is sparse moisture through the year.
Most of these plants grow naturally in desert or semidesert regions, and also can be found along the shore and in windswept places.
Probably the best known xerophytes are cacti, and they are familiar to us chiefly because the characteristics that are adapted to growth in their native sites also make them good candidates for house plants, where their liking for warm, dry conditions fits well with average home conditions.
The easiest way to propagate a cactus is by cuttings in a soil mix made of equal parts of coarse sand and peat moss. Just cut a section of the plant with a sharp knife and let it dry in the sun for a few days, and then insert it into a small pot of the moistened potting mix.
You can dip the raw edge into rooting hormone if you have some on hand, but it will do well enough without.
Mist the cutting daily to provide extra humidity and keep the soil moist. While rooting, the pot should be in bright light but not direct sun. Within a few weeks, the roots should be well established.
It is possible to grow cacti from seed, although some varieties take months to germinate. Seventy degrees is the favored temperature for germination, and the tiny seeds require a fine soil mix with free drainage.
Fill a container and firm down the soil, sow the seed thinly and sprinkle a thin layer of sand over the seeds. Keep the potting mix moist, and put the container in a warm place out of direct sunlight.
A pane of glass or clear plastic covering the container will keep in moisture, but turn it daily to prevent condensation. Add water as needed with a mister so that the seeds, and later the seedlings, are not at risk to be dislodged.
When the seedlings appear, move the pot to bright light.
Many years ago, I suffered through various science projects with my children, and more recently with the grandchildren, and the ones that made the most lasting impression on me involved cacti, for some reason.
I remember one effort to graft, which was successful only with the assistance of straight pins and Super Glue. Not a recommended method. But we did manage to grow a few cacti from seed in another experiment, although I can't remember them living longer than the science fair.
I cannot resist mentioning my son's all-time greatest science project. On the evening before judging he wrote "The History of Flight" on a poster board, illustrated it, and had the nerve to turn it in next day. I don't remember the grade, but it probably was nearer to X than the other end of the alphabet.
Sedums also are classified as xerophytes, and although the specimens in our gardens, such as the ever-popular Autumn Joy, receive water along with their companions, they are able to withstand drought.
In a dry spell, they will grow proudly amid the drooping leaves and sagging stems of other plants. Those who enjoy growing fairy gardens, inside the house and outside, have come to depend on the many, many varieties of sedum. These succulent perennials are hardy, and with their shallow roots and creeping habits, as well as their ability to live in dry conditions, are well suited to rock gardens, dish gardens, cracks in walls and the like.
So there's X out of the way. Y won't be too bad and, for Z, there's always zucchini!

HONOLULU - The state House Judiciary Committee is planning to consider a bill today to include all military members when breaking down how Hawaii's Senate and House seats are distributed.
The bill addresses a longstanding controversy over the process known as reapportionment. Reapportionment Project Manager David Rosenbrock says students and military members who haven't declared Hawaii residency aren't counted when determining district representation. The result was that in 2011, more than 100,000 people were excluded.
A lawsuit on the issue is pending before federal court.
Supporters of the bill say existing state law disenfranchises service members in Hawaii and that reapportionment should be based on U.S. Census figures. They say Hawaii is the only state that doesn't consider military personnel when calculating district representation.
Sen. Sam Slom, the Senate's only Republican member, who sponsored the bill, says it's an issue of equal rights.
"Everyone is talking about equality nowadays, but apparently it doesn't apply to the military, and I think that's outrageous," Slom told The Associated Press.
But opponents worry about whether including nonresident military personnel would result in less representation for Neighbor Islands. The majority of the state's military presence is concentrated on Oahu, which already has the lion's share of representation in the Legislature.
The state Senate has 25 members, with 17 representing Oahu and eight from Neighbor Islands. Of the House's 51 members, 35 are from Oahu and 16 represent Neighbor Islands.
Sen. Malama Solomon from the Big Island was the only lawmaker to oppose the bill last week when the Senate voted to send the measure to the House.
Solomon was one of several plaintiffs who successfully sued the state after the 2011 Reapportionment Commission sought to include all military service members in its reapportionment plan, which would have moved a Senate seat from the Big Island to Oahu. The Hawaii Supreme Court invalidated the plan last year and ruled that the state constitution limits consideration to permanent residents.
The state attorney general's office says it has concerns about Slom's bill, and the state would need to adopt a constitutional amendment in order to include nonresident service members in the reapportionment process.
But Slom says he is confident that his proposal does the right thing both morally and legally.

The area known as North Hills, situated in Little Neck, New York, is roughly rectangular in shape. It is bounded westerly by the Long Island Expressway, southerly by the Douglaston Parkway, northerly by Nassau County and easterly, by the Grand Central Parkway service road. A part of North Hills also extends into Nassau County.
The early settlers of what is now the North Hills section of Little Neck were Matinecock Native Americans, who later sold the land to Thomas Foster in 1676. In the early 18th century, residents began calling the area Little Neck, as a "little neck" of land from the Douglaston Manor estate extended in the Little Neck Bay. During the American Revolution, the area became a stronghold for Loyalists.
Farming was the main economic activity. Goods were taken to market in Brooklyn by wagon. Improvements in transportation came in 1886, with the extension of the Long Island Railroad from Flushing. The area boasted a trolley service from 1910 to 1920.
By 1900, there were 200 telephones in town. Gossip was the order of the day; residents were able to eavesdrop on their neighbors' calls, given the party line technology of the time.
In 1929, Little Neck became incorporated in order to enact its own zoning laws. Many estates were converted into housing developments and gated communities in the 1970s. Between 1970 and 1990, the area underwent a 25% population increase, from only 295 to 3453 residents respectively. The Westmoreland Civic Association has been very active in curtailing urban sprawl.
Library service to the North Hills area began when a traveling station was opened in a real estate office in Douglaston in 1914 and in Little Neck, in 1915, at Public School 42.
The two libraries were combined and relocated to Douglaston in 1935.
The residents of the North Hills area, however, longed for their own library. Their dreams were realized on February 3, 1964. The branch was renovated and reopened on June 22, 1987. The redesigned building is unique among the branches, as it features a 6000 square foot circular, domed edifice capped in the center by a crown celebrating the mythological Celtic warrior, Queen Medb. For their unique use of space and color, the architects won The Percent for the Arts and the Queens Chamber of Commerce Annual Building awards.

Comments about Solid Gold SeaMeal Powder:
Solid Gold Seameal is excellent. My Vet said my dog had allergies, licking her feet and constantly scratching. Giving seameal as directed has stopped all this.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Not good for my dogs
By LL
from CA
I tried using this several times, just to be certain it was the culprit. It gave my dogs, especially the male, dry nose and his nose turned more brown than black. For some reason it's just not agreeing with my dogs. I took them off it for several months each time before trying it again but the same thing happened every time. Now it's too late to return it but I don't like the effect it's having on my dogs
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Seems like a great product for dogs with allergies, but im not sure if I am seeing any results yet, just finished one bottle (1pound) and have one more to go. Dog is still licking paws and scratching (alaskan malamute). Might be good as just a supplement still. Price and shipping were alittle expensive. My malamute didnt really like the taste of the seameal haha very high matience I guess.
Good Supplement But No One Likes It
By Virginia
from Essex MA
The stuff works, gives great energy and joint relief, but it smells awful (fishy), tastes worse (bitter). The only way I can get my pets to eat it is to use teeny amounts in strong-flavored foods, like peanut butter for the dogs, tuna for the cats. But even that doesn't always work--and it's a pain to "dose" them several times a day. I tried dissolving it in warm water as instructed--it does not dissolve, it swells up! Also, not a powder--it is like fine sawdust.
excellant product. long time user.

I have used seameal for over two years and it has improved the condition of my adoptive beagles overall health.
no more poop eating

Lilly is my rescue dog who was eating her poop. Since mixing this in with her food, she no longer eats her poop. Amazing!
Awesome product--gorgeous coats!
By Kim
from Chicago, IL
I started using this 10 years ago with our first Portuguese Water Dog at the suggestion of our breeder. People on the street during our walks, her groomers, other dog owners, etc. would always comment on how gorgeous her coat was. Perhaps some was genetics, but we are using this on our two new dogs (one PWD, one mixed breed) with the same results. A good friend starting using on her PWD and couldn't believe the difference in his coat after a couple of months of use. This is worth every penny....and keep in mind that this jar will last a very long time.
Great Stuff!

This product has changed my dogs life. Our shepherd mix constantly itched and scratched. He was miserable. We changed to grain free food with no relief. Two weeks on SeaMeal Powder and the itching and scratching has stopped. I highly recommend this product to all dog owners. It's fabulous!
Excellent supplement - tastes great
By Pugmom44

I feed all four of my dogs this supplement. It has lots of excellent things in it for your dog, and the best part is that they love the taste of it. Everyone one of them lick the bowl clean. And one of my dogs is finicky. Good stuff, I recommend it.
Highly recommended by a friend

We're using this,at a friend's suggestion,in an attempt to reduce itching and improve hair regrowth in an older cat who just finished his second 25 weeks of chemotherapy within 2 years. He's itched hair away from a spot on his shoulder blades but is showing lustrous regrowth and healthy skin. His coat, overall, is very soft(partly due to chemo), shiny, and healthy looking. Itching is still a problem but the vets are unsure of the cause.
