NOTE: Amanda Liston provided the information and opinions attributed to her in the following post while she was Carolina Care Bullies president. I have since learned that she resigned from the rescue a few days before the post was published.
The next time someone says "Nobody wants to kill animals" to defend the killing of shelter pets, remember Coco. Robin Meadows, a volunteer for Carolina Care Bullies rescue, expended a lot of effort trying to save Coco from the very first day the dog landed in the Guilford County pound, a pet-killing facility where almost half the animals ended up dead in 2011 ¹. Despite days of effort by Meadows and other CCB rescuers, the staff of the Guilford County pound killed Coco anyway.
Coco was a friendly, young pit bull belonging to a boy who lived near Meadows' sister. On Wednesday, Feb. 6, 2013, the boy arrived home from school to discover that his stepfather had surrendered Coco to animal control. The boy told Meadows, who knew Coco had a wonderful disposition and got along well with her dog Skyleigh (adopted from Carolina Care Bullies). Knowing that Coco was definitely adoptable and that at best she could give Coco a forever home herself, Meadows called the Guilford County pound that very day to ask what she needed to do to get Coco out of there. (The Guilford County pound refuses to adopt dogs they identify as pit bulls directly to the public, so rescue pulls are generally the only ways such dogs get out of that pound alive.)
Meadows gave pound staff a detailed description of Coco and told them where and when she had been taken by animal control. "At first they told me they weren't sure what dog I was talking about and they would have to see if they had her," she said. Then they told her she could pull Coco if she brought along the owner who had surrendered her and paid about $60 in reclaim fees. Meadows posted the situation to the CCB forum, and another volunteer offered to put up the money for the fees. On Thursday Meadows went to speak to Coco's former owner, who agreed to meet her at the pound Friday afternoon. She said she called the pound three times on Thursday to make sure that she was making the correct arrangements to save Coco.
The former owner stood Meadows up late Friday afternoon, shortly before the pound closed. Frustrated, she turned for help to CCB president Amanda Liston. Pound staff told Meadows that in order to pull Coco under CCB, Liston would have to speak directly to pound director Marsha Williams on the following Monday.
Liston called the pound Monday morning. "The shelter manager told us that she was expecting our call," Liston said "She also informed us that she would in no way release the dog to Robin, that myself and [CCB vice president] Terry [King] would have to pick up the dog personally. We explained that Robin was a local Greensboro volunteer that wanted to foster-to-adopt the dog, and that we lived 45 minutes away, there was no reason for us to come from Hillsborough to pick up a dog."
Liston said that Meadows is a trusted CCB volunteer and is just as much a part of the organization as anyone else. "CCB is not one or two people, we are a large network of volunteers, and myself and the vice president can not be expected to do every rescue errand. However, we would have been glad to if that was the last resort," she said.
"Half a day later, our Vice President Terry King received a voicemail that the dog in question was euthanized early that morning because of inability to identify the dog based on no owner information." Liston said. "They played games and stalled us over an entire weekend, telling us we couldn't get permission to release the dog until Monday—well after they planned to euthanize the dog," Liston said. "They said they tried to identify the dog and were unable to do so—but they didn't need to—Robin could point out the dog and provide all the owner surrender information for them."
Meadows was devastated. "She survived the weekend just to have them kill her the day I was going to pick her up."
"Five minutes of Guilford County's time would have confirmed that allowing Robin to pull the dog was a far better alternative than euthanasia for Coco," Liston said.
"I find it impossible to believe that they were unable to identify this one dog with the level of Robin's description in addition to the information she was able to provide about the owner, " Liston said. "The only foreseeable way this could have occurred is if they throw every pit bull that comes into the shelter in a large, multi-dog holding pen with no ID, and I know that to not be true."
A public records request for Coco's records was sent to Guilford County pound director Marsha Williams and the county attorney, who forwarded it to Guilford County Animal Control. Animal control responded promptly with their paperwork on Coco, showing where, when and how she was surrendered by her owner and picked up.
Williams, however, did not respond until a second request was sent, when she refused to comply. "I have spoken to the board of Directors and the United Animal Coalition attorney and they have advised me to inform you that The United Animal Coalition that operates the shelter is a private organization and therefore does not fall under your public records statute any information you requested for Coco that falls under that statute can be provided by animal control and the county attorney's office whom you cc'd on your previous email and this one," she said.
Williams and UAC seem to have no problem collecting more than $1 million of taxpayer money from the county to operate a de facto government agency "for the mutual benefit of the Parties and for the citizens of GUILFORD COUNTY" in a building and on property owned by Guilford County. But when it comes time to be publicly accountable for what they do with the community's shelter pets, they want to hide behind non-profit status and claim they don't have to tell anyone what goes on in their pound.
According to the NC Attorney General's office, whether a non-profit operating a government service is subject to public records disclosure is "a matter of legal opinion." There exists legal precedent of courts upholding that municipalities can not hide records from the public by contracting with a non-profit.
In fact, the contract between Guilford County and UAC is very similar to a scenario that UNC Professor of Law and Government Frayda Bluestein sets forth as an example of when a non-profit WOULD probably be subject to transparency laws. She describes a scenario in which a city contracts with a non-profit group that promotes arts:
If not for this contract, city employees would carry out this function. The city appoints three of the five members of the nonprofit board. The city owns the property the nonprofit uses for its offices, and leases it to the nonprofit for nominal consideration. The nonprofit receives most of its funding from the city. Is the nonprofit organization subject to the transparency laws? The answer is probably: yes.
The UAC leases its building and land from Guilford County for $1 per year. The Guilford County board of commissioners has the right to appoint a county commissioner to serve as a fully participating member of the UAC board of directors. The UAC receives most of its funding from the county. In addition, the UAC must obtain written approval from the county manager before it is allowed to change any fees, hours of operation, policies or procedures affecting the public.
The claim of exemption from public records laws by Williams and the UAC is pretty much begging for a legal opinion.² Essentially, Williams and UAC are claiming the right to kill their community's pets completely in secret. Meanwhile, the Guilford County taxpayers are footing the bill.
Consider the implications: Suppose you live right on the county line between Guilford and Alamance. One day, your dog bolts through the door and takes off. If he heads east, gets picked up by Alamance County animal control and taken to the pound in Burlington, you would have every right to find out exactly what happened to him if he died in kennel or was killed there. But if he were to head west, get picked up by Guilford County animal control and end up in the Guilford county pound, his fate could remain a complete mystery to you. Marsha Williams and her staff claim that you would have no right to find out what happened to your beloved family pet during his last days or hours in their facility.
Despite replying to the public records request by claiming she doesn't have to send any records, Williams did send one record: a photo of part of a document she says was all her pound received from animal control with Coco:
Williams says that because the form from animal control identified Coco as a stray, no one at GCAS could figure out which dog Meadows and CCB were trying to save until after pound staff had killed her.
"The lack of proper information did not allow the shelter staff to locate Coco in time to transfer her to CCB," Williams said. Were they in such a hurry to kill Coco that they couldn't be bothered to take a few minutes to see if maybe the small female pit bull pup marked "stray" who came in from Cotswold Ave. on the morning of Feb. 6 could possibly have been the same small female pit bull pup brought in from Cotswold Ave. on the morning of Feb. 6 that Robin Meadows so desperately wanted to save?
As director of that pound, Williams has the power to decide NOT to kill pets, at the very least for long enough to sort out which dog a rescuer wants to save. It's not as if there is an unstoppable killing machine conveyor belt that pets are put on as soon as they enter the pound (as much as Guilford's kill rate makes it seem as if there could be). Williams runs that pound and can decide which pets live, which pets die, and how much time they are given before she or her staff inject them full of death syrup.
Williams and her staff kill more than 6,000 dogs and cats per year. Assuming 260 business days in a year, that means they kill, on average, more than 23 pets per day. Perhaps, given the sheer magnitude of killing they do there, no one at the Guilford County pound saw the point of taking any extra time to kill one fewer healthy and adoptable pet.
What does the fact that Williams sent a record she believes vindicates her and her staff imply about the records she is withholding? Her refusal to release Coco's records might reasonably lead folks to wonder what is there that she does not want to reveal. Was there more to the runaround Meadows and Liston were given than just disorganization or disinterest on the part of Williams and her staff?
"Were they hoping we would give up before we discovered that the dog was already euthanized?" Liston said. She believes the claim that Coco could not be identified "in time" was an excuse given "when there was nothing else they could say to deter us from rescuing the dog."
"The dog didn't have to be euthanized. And had any other shelter manager in the state been in that place, at least the ones we have had experience with, that dog would have lived," Liston said."I want the public to know that Guilford is not the amazing shelter that they are often hailed as. They treat pit bulls as criminals, they treat those that want to rescue them as suspicious, and would rather kill these dogs than give them a chance at a new life.
"The glaring difference between this shelter and others I have worked with, no matter how small-staffed or how large their intake is, is that other shelters can easily identify dogs based on even a mediocre description," Liston said. The larger facilities such as Orange County Animal Services or Wake County Animal Center will mark kennel cards "rescue hold" or "rescue interest" as soon as CCB calls, she said. "Its uncomplicated. We call, they send a volunteer to mark their kennel card, if they can't do it themselves."
"Guilford has made clear to us in the past we are not to try to advertise dogs in their shelter that need homes," Liston said. "I'm confused about this, as they advertise them on their own FB page, so I don't know why we cannot. We have also asked them to email us photos of pit bulls at their shelter and we will try to find foster homes. Unsurprisingly, we have never received a single photograph or even personality description of any dog in their shelter. Despite the non-response on their end, we were expected to provide a list of past adopters, references, adoption policies and a copy of our application, all of which we worked hard to compile and provide to them." Liston said CCB never heard from Guilford again after supplying that information.
"As we have grown, understandably we have had many volunteers want us to help pit bulls in their shelter," Liston said. "I try to explain what happened, and they insist the shelter manager tells them 'We would love to work with CCB!' It's true, the shelter manager does repeat this, over and over to compassionate pit bull lovers and visitors to their Facebook page. But, it is 100% untrue. They go out of their way to make sure no pit bull leaves their shelter, unless it is in secret, unless we somehow magically find a foster without advertising for one, unless we agree to take a dog we've never met or seen."
Liston said Williams has claimed policies dictated by the Guilford County Commissioners are the reason it's difficult to extract pit bulls from that pound. "I know this to also be false, as other counties with similar 'no public pit bull adoption' policies have no trouble allowing rescues to share photos, meet dogs, secure foster homes and use their volunteer-base to pick up dogs for their foster homes," Liston said.
Liston said she suspects a personal prejudice against pit bulls may possibly be what makes it so hard to save them from the Guilford pound. "Why else would one person guarantee the death of so many dogs that have other options?"
Folks who wish to discuss the Guilford County pound or its pit bull policy with the Guilford County Commissioners may find their contact information here. A sample letter regarding anti-pit bull policies can be found here.
A NOTE REGARDING THE COMMENTING POLICY ON THIS POST: Because free and open discourse is only possible when there is full access to information, all comments defending the UAC/GCAS etc. will be held in moderation until such time as Williams and the UAC release Coco's records. If they never release them, the comments will never be published. Anyone bothered or inconvenienced by this policy may contact Marsha Williams.
¹2011 numbers are the latest available for the Guilford County pound, which is not transparent enough to make their statistics available on their website. Back
²In NC, this will most likely require a lawsuit. Animal advocate Holly Nielsen filed suit last year against the Johnston County SPCA, which received funds from the town of Clayton, over the same issue. The case never went to court because the JCSPCA board voted to dissolve itself immediately after the suit was filed.

Former County Legislator David Dale remains in the Erie County Correctional Facility after his latest effort to overturn convictions for fraud and illegally practicing law was denied by the Appellate Division in Rochester.
District Attorney Frank A. Sedita III said Thursday that the appeals panel last week denied Dale's claim that he was poorly represented by defense attorney Thomas Eoannou and that he had been "bullied" by prosecutors.
The former legislator, a Buffalo Democrat, was disbarred from practicing law in 2005 and convicted of criminal contempt in 2011 for disobeying court orders prohibiting him from practicing law.
A grand jury indicted Dale on charges of collecting more than $10,000 in illegal fees from seven unsuspecting clients for estate and real estate work between August 2008 and January 2011.
When Dale pleaded guilty last June, he admitted stealing money from clients by pretending he was still permitted to provide legal services, several years after his 2005 disbarment.
Sedita said Dale's latest legal maneuver involved a suit against him and State Supreme Court Justice Christopher J. Burns, who sentenced him to a year in jail last October.
But the district attorney said the appellate judges unanimously rejected Dale's suit and refused to set aside his conviction.
Sedita noted that Dale, acting as his own attorney, also has filed a motion in U.S. District Court to be released from jail. But he said he doubted the effort would be heard on the federal level since
Dale has not exhausted all appeals in New York State courts.
"Before federal courts get involved, the person submitting the petition must first demonstrate that," Sedita said Thursday. "I don't think Mr. Dale has exhausted all his [state] remedies."
When he was sentenced by Burns last year, Dale cited his past community service and the special medical needs of his young daughter as reasons against a jail sentence.
But Burns called Dale's actions an affront against not just those whose money he took, but also against the legal profession.

Halloween Horror Story: The Case of the Missing Pumpkin Lattes
Starbucks Fans Bemoan Shortage of Seasonal Favorite; Expressions in Haiku
For Asher Anidjar, the arrival of fall isn't marked by turning leaves or a chilly breeze, but a steaming seasonal drink. Recently, though, when he headed to his local Starbucks SBUX -0.39 % for a Pumpkin Spice Latte, he left with a bitter taste in his mouth. They were out of the special sauce that gives the treat its distinctive autumnal flavor.
"I just left, depressed," said Mr. Anidjar, a 26-year-old commercial real-estate analyst who lives in Manhattan.
The drink crops up on the Starbucks menu annually for a limited time, and this year there has been an unusual run on the pumpkin batch. Thanks in part to a frothy dose of buzz brewed up by the Seattle-based coffee giant before the beverage's Sept. 4 debut, the craze has drained supplies at stores across the country.
Baristas are hitting the street, searching for stashes of the flavored sauce at other stores. Customers denied their fix—which costs about $4 for a small cup, or "tall" in Starbucks speak—are tweeting about their dismay.
"My world almost ended this morning when the local Starbucks told me they were out of Pumpkin Spice Latte," tweeted Jason Sizemore, 38 years old, of Lexington, Ky.
Cynthia Smalls, a barista at a midtown Manhattan Starbucks, said steamed customers have grown emotional on days her location runs out of pumpkin sauce. "They go crazy. The day we first found out we had a shortage, forget it," she said.
Her own surprised reaction: "You guys do know it's just a drink, right?" she said.
Starbucks Corp. officials said there is no widespread scarcity of the sauce used to make the drink, though they acknowledge shortages at some stores due to infrequent deliveries.
"There is an opportunity, in a pumpkin emergency, for them to be able to place an [extra] order," said spokeswoman Lisa Passé.
The desperation is such that some have turned to a new instant version of the latte. But stores are running out of the powdered stuff too, and prices are shooting up on the secondary market.
Edmond Lorts, a 29-year-old freelance photographer in Austin, Texas, capitalized on demand for the instant treat. He started an eBay EBAY -0.28 % auction for a $6.95 box at $15. Within a day, someone picked it up at the buy-it-now price of $17. "I was blown away," he said. "People go nuts for this for some reason."
Ben Neal, 26, a librarian who lives in Bristol, Va., sensed the impending shortage of the instant version, and when his local store received a shipment of 10 boxes, he purchased three. He is rationing the packets, savoring only one or two a week, he said.
"It just tastes like fall," he said. "It has a certain spice to it, but it's not too strong."
Asked why he didn't buy all 10, Mr. Neal said: "I didn't want to be that guy."
Hyping a short-lived product can backfire, marketing experts say. Companies may boost excitement but run the risk of angering customers who walk out of a store empty-handed.
A few companies whose products are imbued with unique cachet, such as Apple Inc., AAPL 0.76 % can get away with having items in short supply. But most others risk losing ground to competitors.
Gavan Fitzsimons of Duke University traces customer frustration with sudden shortages all the way back to the time of hunting, gathering and foraging. "It's a fundamental, basic, gut-level reaction," he says. "It's literally just, 'Ugh! I'm so irritated!' "
The pumpkin latte dust-up, meanwhile, recalls the primal need for some McDonald's customers to get their hands on another limited-time offering, the McRib sandwich.
The burger chain deliberately cooked up interest by selling the pork sandwich in select cities for a few weeks at a time, and hungry customers said they drove as far as 10 hours to hunt them down.
Starbucks workers around the country have poured out their grievances on the popular blog StarbucksGossip.com, run by media reporter Jim Romenesko.
They lashed out at company managers for putting them in a position of turning down customers seeking the instant pumpkin spice beverage, the only instant Starbucks product that uses milk instead of water.
"It looks like it's well stocked in Howard Schultz land," Mr. Romenesko said, referencing the company CEO and his location in Seattle. "It's so he doesn't see empty shelves and get upset, and his friends don't complain to him. But come to Chicago and elsewhere in the country, and they are nowhere to be found."
Last year, Starbucks began hyping the drink by running a contest that awards one town with the first pumpkin delivery. The honor this year went to Leavenworth, Wash.; Chicago won last year.
To further froth things up, the company asked patrons to pen some poetry—"pumpkin spice haikus," or playful nonrhyming verse in 17 syllables or sounds.
I love pumpkin spice
Do not even need a cup
Connect the I.V.
Another example:
Dear Mister. Pumpkin,
Thank you for your sacrifice,
you taste rather nice.
Fans describe PSL, as it is known in Internet shorthand, as tasting like a sweet, liquid pumpkin pie—heavy on the nutmeg and cinnamon, with a hint of clove.
Yet for all the ruckus, there isn't any actual pumpkin in the product.
Ingredients for the store-brewed version include a "pumpkin-flavored syrup," and a spokeswoman said it "contains a natural and artificial pumpkin spice flavor."
As for his plight, Mr. Sizemore had decided to treat himself on a recent cool morning.
Then, a "terrible tragedy happened," he said. "I placed my order, and the barista informed me that they were out. I was so distraught."
She offered him a slice of pumpkin loaf as a gesture of good will. "I told her I would take it, but it was no replacement," he said.

West Seneca East took care of its first team goal of the season Friday – and took care of Lake Shore with a 34-6 victory. The win clinches the Class A South title for the Trojans, their first division title since 1981.
Any fears his team would come out flat against the winless Eagles were put to rest early when coach Jim Maurino's Trojans broke the game open with a 21-point second quarter. "Their goal tonight was to clinch that division championship, it didn't really matter who the opponent was," Maurino said.
Quarterback Andy Smigiera accounted for four touchdowns, two passing and two running. He finished 9 of 15 for 199 yards passing. He scored the game's first two TDs on the ground on runs of 2 and 17 yards and then connected on TD passes with Scott Ackerman and Mike Waterman.
"He took what the defense gave him," Maurino said. "They decided to stack the box tonight and take away the run, and he threw for 200 yards."
Smigiera also shines as the Trojans' kicker/punter. He's only had one kickoff that hasn't been a touchback and he's averaging 40 yards per punt.
Linebacker Ryan Johnson had nine tackles. West Seneca East (6-0) had three interceptions, compliments of Austin Spindler, Ryan Johnson and Sam Crabtree.
Cheektowaga 52, Lew-Port 6: Junior Preston Summers finished with 209 all-purpose yards, including a 55-yard rushing touchdown, a 65-yard TD reception and an 89-yard punt return as the Warriors clinched the Class B West title.
Robert Pulley finished with six tackles, including one for loss, while Davion Stallworth had three stops and a 55-yard interception return.
Iroquois 29, Hamburg 22: A big second half made the difference as the Chiefs rallied from a 22-3 first-half deficit.
"The second half was amazing. They really destroyed us in the first half," said Iroquois coach Keith Marshall. "We renewed our focus and scored 26 straight points. Our defense was outstanding and that allowed us to maintain some balance offensively."
Wide receiver Nate Wilkinson and quarterback Matt Keating connected on three TD passes. Tyler Miller rushed for 181 yards on 24 carries. Wilkinson had five catches for 141 yards while Keating finished 8 of 15 for 156 yards.
Maryvale 49, Lackawanna 21: The Flyers picked up their first win over the Steelers since 1994. Mike Wawrzyniak moved to tailback in the second half and rushed for a career-high 252 yards, four TDs and returned an interception for a score.
Running back Taylor Jordan, battling a hip-pointer all season, finished with 100 yards on 15 carries, and blocked a field goal try and and had seven tackles.
"We looked at this as a playoff game because three league losses would probably make it pretty difficult to make the playoffs. We played as a desperate football team, the guys were hungry and rose to the challenge," said Maryvale coach Jeff Buccieri.
Clarence 35, West Seneca West 11: Emaure Williams rushed for 203 yards and a pair of scores for the Red Devils in Class AA South. Ben Reinhardt added 127 yards on nine carries with a score.

Nichols 43, V-University Prep 22: The Vikings rolled to a 36-6 halftime lead and finished with 285 rushing yards in their victory. Adam Noonan, one week removed from becoming Nichols' all-time leading rusher, finished with 155 yards and three TDs, which included a 44-yard fumble recovery.
Mike Geiger led the defense with nine tackles.
Williamsville South 50, Williamsville East 14: Sam Cohen proved to be a lethal offensive weapon for the Billies, who easily rolled by their rivals.
Cohen finished with 374 all-purpose yards, including 219 rushing, and also recorded eight tackles. Casey Nuchereno and Anthony Liberatore combined for 20 tackles for Williamsville South.
Frontier 22, Lancaster 16: Quarterback Ben Koch was 8 of 10 for 142 yard with a rushing and passing TD as the Falcons handed the Redskins their fifth straight Class AA South league loss.
Cameron Coon added 71 yards on the ground with a rushing and receiving score. LB Nick King had 15 tackles.
Burgard 20, Tonawanda 13: The Bulldogs' Sean Marshall scored what proved to be the winning touchdown on a 56-yard touchdown run. Marshall finished with 185 yards on 12 carries and caught five passes for 52 yards. Antoine Davis has 12 tackles and Roderick Morrow had a fumble recovery for the Bulldogs.

Eden 22, Pioneer 20: Brady Bermingham's 1-yard touchdown run and the ensuing two-point conversion proved to be the difference for the Raiders.
Maple Grove 21, Portville 0: The Red Dragons opened up a tight game with 14 fourth-quarter points in their shutout victory over the Panthers.
Akron 27, Fredonia 10: The Hillbillies couldn't contain Austin Mietz, who had 160 yards rushing and a TD, while completing 13 of 20 passing for 165 yds and three TDs, including two to Austin Lauricella.

With each passing weekend, the track and field season gets closer to to the finish line.
On Saturday, two notable meets prepared local thinclads for the home stretch.
The state championships are a month away.
In Columbia at the talent-packed 22nd annual Taco Bell Classic, Goose Creek High School sprinter Deondre Daniels bested the field in the 400-meter dash. He also placed fourth in the 200-meter dash.
Over 100 squads from eight different states competed in the Taco Bell Classic. Behind Daniels, the Gators were fifth overall.
Stratford High School's T.J. Deveaux was runner-up in the discus.
Goose Creek's Pedro Manigault was third in the high jump.
Other top finishes in the boys meet were turned in by Stratford's Brandon Mullins (pole vault, sixth), K.J. Givens (400 hurdles, seventh) and Jared Terhune (shot put, eighth).
In the girls meet, Goose Creek's Destiny McKnight was sixth in the 400 hurdles and eighth in the 100 hurdles.
Also on Saturday, Cane Bay High School held an invitational meet.
Hanahan's boys and Bishop England's girls were the team champions.
Cane Bay was third in both meets.
Hanahan won six events and Cane Bay two.

With a nod to the late Chicago cafe columnist Irv Kupcinet for my use of "infanticipation" as a term for excitement over a forthcoming birth, I have to raise a question about the Yankee media's excessive coverage of the imminent arrival of a new member of the British royal family.
The morning shows on the TV networks are all atwitter, for example, at NEWS that Princess Kate (above) is now in labor.
Is this really the most important news of the day?
UPDATE: It says HERE that the Web site of the Guardian, a British newspaper, has a button ...

Hundreds of law enforcement officials, civilians and spectators lined several blocks of Delaware Avenue this morning to say a final goodbye to Buffalo Police Officer Patricia A. Parete.
An Erie County Sheriff's helicopter flew overhead as the hearse carrying her body made its way to Trinity Episcopal Church at 271 Delaware Ave.
A huge American flag unfurled by Buffalo firefighters waved the funeral procession by.
Hundreds of people filled the church to standing-room capacity.
"We're here to give thanks for Patty's life and to thank God for giving us Patty," said Rev. R. Cameron Miller, Trinity's pastor, who presided over the service.
Parete had been a police officer since January 2001 when her life changed in an instant in December 2006. She and her partner, Charles E. Andolina, responded to a fight call at West Chippewa Street and Whitney Place. A struggle ensued, and Parete was shot twice. Her spine was severely damaged by the second bullet, and she was left paralyzed from the neck down.
A long, difficult battle to regain her health followed, and recently she was under hospice care. Parete died early Saturday morning in her Niagara County home.
Buffalo Mayor Byron W. Brown spoke during Monday's funeral service.
"You are surrounded by people who care," Brown said to Parete's family in his remarks.
Erie County Sheriff Timothy Howard and Buffalo Police Commissioner Daniel Derenda also attended the funeral.

Prineville police turned to the public for tips Friday in hopes of solving a two-month rash of window-smashing car vandalism, totaling more than a dozen cases so far.
In most of the incidents, vehicle windows are being broken, probably by a BB or similar object, said police Capt. Michael Boyd.
Most of the targeted vehicles have been parked on the street, with cars damaged in numerous locations around town, Boyd said.
"Theft from the cars does not appear to be a motive," Boyd said in a news release.
Three "very similar" incidents were reported on Friday, bringing the total to 13 separate cases dating back to mid-January, the captain said.
Boyd noted that it's a violation of Prineville city ordinances to shoot an air rifle within the city limits. "Parents are cautioned about letting their children have access to air rifles or similar objects," he added.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Prineville police at (541) 447-4168.
You can also call the Crime Stoppers Tip Line at 1-877-876-TIPS, or use the form on KTVZ.COM's Crime Stoppers page. You can remain anonymous, and you could be eligible for a cash reward.

McCain Meets Rebel Leaders in Border Zone
Sen. John McCain (R., Ariz.), a leading critic of President Barack Obama's cautious response to the Syrian civil war, made a surprise trip to Syria on Monday where he met rebel leaders.
Mr. McCain's spokesman Brian Rogers confirmed the senator spoke with leaders from the Supreme Military Council of the Free Syrian Army, who asked for weapons and airstrikes against positions held by the Syrian government and its ally, Lebanese Shiite militant group Hezbollah. The meetings in both Syria and Turkey were earlier reported by the Daily Beast.
Mr. McCain held two meetings in the Turkish border town of Gaziantep, crossing the Syrian border for a third meeting. Rebel commanders and civilian leaders traveled to meet Mr. McCain from deep inside Syria, including front lines at Homs, Idlib, Aleppo and Qusayr, where rebels are defending strategic territory against Syrian forces and Iran-backed Hezbollah.
Activists attending the meetings said Mr. McCain asked about Hezbollah and about extremists in the rebel forces. Mr. McCain chatted with rebel leaders over glasses of fruit juice and fresh cherries in an old customs house now serving as an opposition command center, activists at the meeting said.
"This meeting was productive. Commanders went to great length to come and meet the senator, and this was worthwhile because Western governments have constantly been saying they won't help the opposition because they don't know who they are. We need to do this kind of thing more," said Mouaz Moustafa, a Syrian American activist with the Syrian Emergency Taskforce, a Washington-based nonprofit backing the Syrian opposition.
The White House and the State Department didn't respond to requests to comment.
Steven Cook, a senior fellow for Middle Eastern Studies at the Council on Foreign Relations, said the McCain trip is unlikely to sway Mr. Obama's decision against using U.S. forces in Syria. Instead, the administration is trying to organize peace talks in Geneva.
Mr. McCain is a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, which voted overwhelmingly last week to provide small arms to moderate rebel groups, signaling broad political support for a change in the U.S. strategy despite concerns that weapons might fall into the hands of radical Islamists aligned with al Qaeda.

Q&A...and a giveaway!
110 comments:
ok, that vicks trick is hilarious! but if it works....ReplyDelete
i would like to know what your favorite meal is? not food, like ice cream, but meal like entree and side and beverage to go with it.
I've heard of that before, and even though it sounds super crazy, it totally does work. My question for you is: what is your most favorite vacation destination, and why?ReplyDelete
I would like to know if the sweet little toy truck in the photo is actually yours or just a random photo. I'm wondering because I want a little vintage toy truck with just the perfect amount of rust like that one and I haven't been able to find one that of course doesn't cost an arm and a leg ;)ReplyDelete
What is your favorite source for vintage home goods?ReplyDelete
I would love to know if you know the people in the truck photo on your blog header. You do the most gorgeous photography! Really enjoy reading your blog! Hope you feel better!ReplyDelete
Hi there! So sorry you aren't feeling well, that's no fun at all. I am so happy you are doing a Q&A today! My question is, what is your most favorite item in your home-what is it and what's the story behind it? Hope you get feeling better soon!ReplyDelete
I love everything I see in your shop, every time I visit it. I would like to know what your favorite vintage find has been.ReplyDelete
What is the most bizarre thing you uncovered during your home renovations/flip projects?ReplyDelete
Can I ask a few questions??ReplyDelete
Your pictures are SO lovely! What kind of camera/set up/editing tools do you use? One of my new year resolutions is to take better photos.
Also, what few items are your best sellers?
Hope you feel better!
if you are watching Downton Abbey which, by the way you should be if you aren't, what is it that most draws you to it and what is your favorite character?ReplyDelete
really? Vicks on the feet? never heard that one before. and I hope I won't have an opportunity to try it soon either! OK, for my question, what is one thing that people don't know about you that would surprise them?ReplyDelete
I hope you get rid of that nasty virus quickly. As a child, my mom rubbed Vicks all over my chest and under my nose when I got a cold. Oh how I hated that stuff. It would be a lot more tolerable on the feet instead of under the nose!ReplyDelete
My question: Has there ever been a vintage piece in your shop that you really really really wanted to keep for yourself? If so, what was it?
Here's my shameless question as I'm always on the lookout for new books: What is your favorite book of all time? What books would you recommend?ReplyDelete
I had heard that years ago and I too never believed that smearing vicks on your feet would work..But my husband has a heck of a cold and cough and I will give him this information..He will then say to me..Oh because the Urban Farmgirl says it it's true..And I of course will say..ABSOLUTELY..Hope ya are feeling better..ReplyDelete
I hope you feel better! My question is...when are we going to get together?!!!ReplyDelete
Is there a piece you regret selling?
My question...Do you ever doubt your white wall ways? Actually, Are all of your walls white?ReplyDelete
what is the best deal you ever found when treasure hunting?ReplyDelete
Question? Uhm...do you have children and if so, how do you balance their taste in decorating with yours? We're in the middle of making colour choices for my 13 year old daughters bedroom makeover...ugh? LIME GREEN? Help! Get well! Much love, LisaReplyDelete
I can't remember from summer but do you use the AS chalk paint? If so have you ever had a problem with it?ReplyDelete
Can't wait to see you start painting again! Hurry up summer:)
I have to say I can imagine the vics on the bottom or your feet working! Soaking your feet in a tub of hot water helps a cold too - even more than soaking your whole body in a bubble bath. Don't ask me why, I just know it works!
What is your all time favorite comedy? T.v. show or movie.ReplyDelete
Hope you feel better soon. I'll have to remember the Vicks trick.
ugh - sorry your feeling blah! i'm tucking that little vicks treasure away -- the coughs are bound to catch up with me sometime!ReplyDelete
question for the day - what is #1 on your bucket list?
feel better soon!
Question: If you could change anything in your house and money was not an option, what one thing would you change?ReplyDelete
I had sinus and chest congestion and nothing I took would help. Short of going to the doctor I looked up old fashion remendies for my symptoms. I found the vicks remedy on-line and gave it a try. I rubbed it on the bottom of my feet, on my chest and the bottom of my nose so I could breath. After a couple of days I was on my way to recovery. So, yes it totally works.
I'm dying to know: how did the pharmacy cabinets turn out?? (And did you get the new barn wood dining table??) :)ReplyDelete
What color do you suggest for a master bedroom. I am struggling with that.ReplyDelete
My Mom has told me about the Vick's thing. I have never tried but might now.
Feel better.
Hi Mary,ReplyDelete
What paint color/brand did you use for your guest bedroom? Also, if possible - would you be able to share all the paint colors/brand that you used for the walls & trims of your entire home? Thanks in advance.
Does your family still live on the farm you grew up on and do you have any pictures of it that you could share with us?ReplyDelete
Hope you feel better soon!
P.S. I hope you feel better!!! I've been sick now for the past week, so I know how horrible it feels to be under the weather when you have so much work to do! :) Happy Monday!!!ReplyDelete
We use the Vic's trick on my girls' when they are coughing at night.ReplyDelete
Question -- What TV shows are a 'must watch' at your house?
Hi Mary~~~So sorry to hear that you are feeling so awful. It seems like there is something going around everywhere. Since I am one of your newest followers and new to blogging, I would like to know what inspires you the most and what keeps you doing this????ReplyDelete
Hope you feel better soon:)
What started you out as a blogger? Your inspiration?ReplyDelete
Check out my blog at thriftshopcommando.blogspot.com -
My question is far and away the most pressing and urgent of ANY question you will receive, I guarantee it...when the HECK are we finally gonna get to meet???ReplyDelete
It's gonna happen, it just HAS to!
the locker door is MINE! Mmmmwwwaaahhhhaaaa ( evil laugh!)
that is an awesome tip, Mary! crazy! hope you feel better soon. Bronchitis is the pits.ReplyDelete
I guess my question is more business related. Did you start out on your own dime or did you get a loan from family or the bank? When did you feel like it was becoming profitable for you? How often do you have to restock your bigger pieces? How many shows do you do in a year? (seems like around 3-4 if I'm remembering correctly...?)
I would be interested in hearing what things you experienced growing up in the country that us city slickers wouldn't know about!! I spent my teen years in the country and I learned more about gardening than any of my friends knew....things like that!ReplyDelete
oh glad to hear you got some relief from the vicks on your feet! i will remember that one!!ReplyDelete
my Q- when out and about treasure hunting, what finds makes your heart skip a beat? would love to know! Kate x
Great tip for the coughing! I love your pieces and your blog. How many pieces do you do a month? Do you set goals or do you just go at your own pace? What do you do when you have a creative slump? Or do you get those?ReplyDelete
Hope you feel better soon....My question: What does your house/decor look like????ReplyDelete
I will remember that tip, thanks!! What is your favorite memory of growing up on a farm? I am attempting to raise my children on a little farm, and always wonder what memories I can help them make now, that they will always treasure and remember when they are older.ReplyDelete
Get well! :)
that is so bizarro about the Vick's, but what ever works, right!ReplyDelete
hope you feel better soon!
My question is:
Are you going to give me that toy truck in the picture???
What is your current obsession in the antiquing world???ReplyDelete
If you want to get better... crush a clove of garlic. Then take the garlic crushed and place some in each of the fold of your arms. hold it there til it starts to burn. The garlic goes into the bloodstream and goes to work on your cold. BELIEVE ME it works.ReplyDelete
Have you been talking to my Mom??ReplyDelete
Because she just told me a couple of days ago to do the Vicks/socks thingy.
And that her Grandma is who told her. LOL!!
How funny is that!
Ok, well, I thought it was. Heehee.
What is your most favorite vintage find at this moment?!ReplyDelete
Is there an annual (or more often) vintage type flea market that you look forward to each year?ReplyDelete
And if so what has been your best purchase so far?
Hi your blog is beautiful. My questions is this. Why do you not find that farmhouse with the barn and the long winding roads?..The life you dream of could be yours...ReplyDelete
I love your blog, and repin a lot of your pins on pintrest... WOW,now I feel like a stalker!ReplyDelete
My question for you would be:
how often do you "take down" and regroup everything?
This comment has been removed by the author.ReplyDelete
I'm so sorry you aren't feeling well. But curling up on the sofa with Vicks on your feet should do the trick.ReplyDelete
So... Why did you start blogging?
Miss Ellie
When did you know you wanted to have your own business and how did you take the leap to do so? The same goes for blogging...I started last year, but quickly got blogfright. I can't seem to get over the fear of it not working to just go for it. KatieReplyDelete
I'll have to keep that cure in mind. Hoping you feel better soon. That truck is totally adorable! My question is how did you know what your business was going to be, or did the opportunity just sort of happen? Take your time answering and get lots of rest.ReplyDelete
A couple of things I'm dying to know and I hope it's not too personal...I'd love to rent a warehouse/workspace to do all of my furniture refurbishing, do you feel like what you pay for the space takes a big chunk out of your profit? Is it worth it? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this.ReplyDelete
Well, I just have to say, I love all the same things you must, because I think vintage is my middle name. I want to know, what is the best find you've ever made?ReplyDelete
i've heard of the vics thing & it's a wonder it does work. also a shot of brandy with hot water works too ~ but might i suggest drinking that. ;)ReplyDelete
my question: what do you look like? i always wonder about the girl behind the blog also & honestly when i picture you i picture a truck & although that truck is lovely...we wanna see you.
Hey there! I love your taste and totally want some vintage goody you've picked out :)ReplyDelete
My question is do you have children? And if not do you ever plan on any? I hope that's not too personal of a question :)
I would like to know: did you have a vision of your dream house when you were little?ReplyDelete
Example: every since I was young, I have wanted to live in a two story white farmhouse with a wrap around porch. Complete with the golden retriever (which I finally have!)
Okay, what is your favorite find EVER :) Do you still have it?ReplyDelete
First off, I love your blog. You have great taste!ReplyDelete
My question is completely random and it is this:
What's your favorite guilty pleasure in food form?
Oooh, I love that old toy truck! My hubby would LOVE it! My question is, what is your all time favorite book?ReplyDelete
Hope you feel better! My question is what type of camera do you use?ReplyDelete
Get feeling better! My question to you is what is your favorite find and did you keep it?ReplyDelete
Hope you get well soon! As a side note, we absorb substances through the soles of our feet. Vicks has camphor, eucalyptus, and menthol, perhaps that is why it helps your cough. If you're having trouble sleeping, massage lavender essential oil into the soles of your feet. My question: Are you seeing any new trends in vintage collectibles/decor for 2012?ReplyDelete
Hope you get better soon! I had a head cold for 2 weeks! It felt like it would never end. Question: I am painting some dining chairs white. Do you use some sort of top coat/ sealant when painting, like a polyeurethane, or wax? I don't want that yellow tint on my chairs that some of those products produce. Would it be best just to paint them and leave it at that, and then touch them up from time to time?ReplyDelete
- CarrieMon Jan 09, 11:37:00 PM
Can you do a house tour? I love your little updates, but they are like teasers! Or maybe your shop/studio? I'd love to see all your work materials and how you do all that you do!ReplyDelete
What is your favorite project of all time??ReplyDelete
Feel better now...drink hot tea and rub those feet!!
I'd love to see inside your shop/studio as well. I get giddy with excitement thinking about all the goodies you have!ReplyDelete
Hmmm....do you ever have seller's remorse?? You do such beautiful work. I would think it would be hard to part with some of your pieces.ReplyDelete
Other than white, if you could only live with one colour, what would it be?ReplyDelete
So sorry to hear you're under the weather - hope you feel better soon! xo

Karen R
Vicks on the feet really works...that and a spoonful of honey, I've done it for my little one since you can't give them cough meds. My question is where do you find most of your furniture to paint? And how do you deal with dresser drawers that don't work well? Take a nap and feel better soon!!ReplyDelete
I hope you feel better soon. That doesn't sound fun at all!ReplyDelete

Hmm, let's see.....if you could live anywhere else in the world where would it be?ReplyDelete

Hey, hope you are feeling better very soon! Loooove that vintage toy truck, it's adorable!ReplyDelete
Your "Who am I?" says that you want to travel the world... if you could go anywhere, what's your #1 pick?ReplyDelete
What's the thing you hope to hand down one day?ReplyDelete
How did you get started redoing furniture? Is it hard to do your taxes? I want to start selling on etsy, but the tax issue scares me.ReplyDelete
Oh, btw, if you have a terrible headache, you can rub Vicks on your forehead and it will help it go away. I get awful migraines and it almost always helps them go away or at least lessen the severity?ReplyDelete
what's the one thing you regret not buying?ReplyDelete
feel better soon.
Hmm... Just one question? How about three? I wonder what type of camera you use and program to edit with? Do you have kids and do you travel around to other states looking for treasures?ReplyDelete
After seeing all the questions I think I see why people switch over to Wordpress. I've been told you can answer right on the blog and it also sends a email directly to the person. Would you consider switching to Wordpress? Oops that's four questions now... lol
Traditional Medicinals makes fabulous teas for every ailment it seems. Specifically, Gypsy Cold Care and Throat Coat would help for a chest cold. I saw that people used Vicks for migraines. There's a product made by Origins called Peace of Mind; sensory therapy. It works great for head, sinus pain and just as a general stress reliever. A little goes a long way! It's $10 for .5 oz but it only takes a tiny drop. It's cooling and minty. Boiling water and dropping peppermint oil in it helps for breathing and relieving chest pain. No oil-No problem- Use mint leaves, basil, rosemary and/or oregano. Pretty much a mixture of Italian seasoning will open up nasal passages in a gentle way. Basil and oregano are part of the mint family too. Anywho, hope you are feeling better very soon.
What is the very first thing you sold???ReplyDelete
I hope you feel better soon!!! I've heard the same thing about the vicks. I will have to try it next time. ;o)ReplyDelete
Mine is an etsy question. How in the world do you keep up with your sales tax? Do you keep your own spreadsheet or do you have a professional do it? If you have a professional, have you always done it that way?
I'm SOOOO scared about opening my etsy shop b/c I'm super scared I will mess up on the taxes some how, some way...

Hi Mary! I would love to know where you go/shop for all your fabulous finds? Do you sleep :)ReplyDelete
Have a great day! Susan
I bought a frame from you last summer and love the way it is painted. What kind of paint do you use on your furniture? I think you have mentioned Benjamin Moore Cloud White. Do you normally use flat or semi-gloss? Do you sand it down or apply wax after painting? Just curious.ReplyDelete
So, that crazy trick really works? I'm totally trying it on my little coughy cakes.ReplyDelete
Here's my question: What is your favorite meal ever in the history of the world. If you could only pick one. Lay it on me. Or, if you can't decide, we can go the route of "which 5 foods would you take to a deserted island". Either works. :)
ps - FEEL BETTER! xo
i will try the vicks trick, i use emergen c with honey hot and the throat coat tea. works great on the sore throat that accompanies a cough. my question is what kind of camera do you have do you photoshop and what kind of lenses and have you taken a photo class????ReplyDelete

Oh my goodness! I have been telling people about the Vicks feet thing for years and no one ever believes me! My mother did it for us in the 40's and 50's and I did it for my children in the 80's and 90's. Some old wives' tales really are true. My left hand itches - maybe someone will actually be giving me money.ReplyDelete
Feel better,

Oh and you doubted me and the Vicks...silly girl! I am old and I am wise hahaReplyDelete
Since we share a love for KC, I'm going to keep it legit and ask "What is your Kenny Chesney song, Farmgirl?"ReplyDelete
If it's not too late my questions are... Do you ever - or do you have plans to in the future - have a barn sale (or warehouse) where you sell your furniture along with your "smalls". And do you ever sell your items at other vendor locations vs. just the fleas? Last question :) - If you ever lost your love for refinishing furniture, what would you want to do instead?ReplyDelete

Item Description
As songwriters, performers, innovators and founders of the influential Dead Reckoning record label, Kieran Kane and Kevin Welch have made a career of letting the song lead the way. In the process, they midwifed a new genre of American roots music, blazing a trail for other artists to explore and develop. Yet their modus operandi remains the same: to craft and compose with no goal other than to let the song realize itself. In 2003 they joined forces with Fats Kaplin, the renowned multi-instrumentalist and "this generation's Ry Cooder", to create an Americana super group that makes music with roots parameters but in the spontaneity and vibe of a jazz recording. Joined this time around by Kieran's son Lucas, Kane Welch Kaplin picks up where Lost John Dean left off - featuring an entire album of roots music gems from the pens of the original Godfathers of Americana. The groove is tighter, the tunes sparser; they've gone from being a group of accomplished individuals to a solid soulful unit.

LISBON - An influx of Amish from the New York state area has the highway patrol concerned for their safety on local roads.
A trooper from the Lisbon post handled a crash Sunday that involved a car versus buggy, and the 20-year-old Amish couple were taken to the Salem Regional Medical Center.
Trooper Brian Kavanagh cited Alexander Placencia, 30, of Sebring Street, East Palestine, for assured clear distance after the 2014 Chrysler 200 he was driving struck the back of the buggy while both were westbound on state Route 46 near Bye Road in Unity Township at 3:13 p.m.
Placencia was not injured but Uria N. Byler and his wife Emma Sue Byler, of Neeld Road, East Palestine, had minor injuries and the roughly 12-year-old standard breed horse driving them was put down on Monday for the injuries it sustained to its hind legs.
The posted speed limit on that road is 55 miles per hour, and Placencia was going that fast at the time of the crash, according to the report.
The impact destroyed the buggy.
Patrol Sgt. Craig Monte said the accident is the first in Columbiana County involving an Amish buggy, and he is concerned there may be more, if motorists are not paying attention.
Like others, he has heard Amish families from New York are turning to this area to get away from stricter regulations among their sect.
"All indications are the Amish community in Columbiana County is going to continue to grow," he said.
The families are mainly choosing the Rogers, East Palestine and Negley areas, he added.
Middleton Township Fiscal Officer Bob Chapman said at the latest township meeting more Amish are being seen in the area, and that they are mostly from New York. He had also heard it was due to the regulations there.
Township Trustee Nancy Michaels said some Amish have lived on state roads just outside the township for the last couple of years, but more are now taking up residence in the township on Pioneer and Millrock roads.
The township recently purchased four Amish buggy road signs that will be posted on those roads to warn drivers to be on the lookout while traveling through. The signs cost $68 a piece.
Monte said signs have also been posted by the Ohio Department of Transportation on state roads.
Micheals said signs have been up for a few years on state Routes 7 and 154 in Rogers.
"Just be aware, if you see a sign up, just watch out for them," she said.
Monte said drivers should share the road with the Amish with courtesy, respect and understanding.
"Amish buggies have every legal right to be on the roadway. Have a knowledge that these Amish buggies are on the roadways," he said.
While most buggies stay closer to the edgeline in order to make room for vehicle traffic, they often don't have much leeway for moving over, he added.
"Roads in this part of the county have steep hills, crests and sharp, hairpin curves," he said.
All buggies are required to display the orange triangle identifying them as slow moving vehicles and front and back lights, he said, but the sign and lights can't always be seen when it comes to hills and curves.
Motorists should assume a buggy could be over a hill or around a corner and proceed with caution.
"Use extreme caution with the unknown," he said.
Patrol Sgt. Ian Roberts of the Wooster post in Wayne County said motorists should never do anything that may spook a horse driving a buggy. Honking horns, yelling or making other loud noises should be avoided at all costs.
Monte reached out to Roberts for advice on how to deal with the growing Amish population from a road safety standpoint since Wooster has a heavy Amish population.
Monte said he hopes once more people are aware of Amish using local roads future accidents will be avoided.

National Alliance on Mental Illness
page printed from http://www2.nami.org/
(800) 950-NAMI; firstname.lastname@example.com
Northern Illinois University
February 21, 2008
The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) offers its sympathy to the families and friends of the victims of the tragedy at Northern Illinois University (NIU)—which serves a reminder of the Virginia Tech tragedy not even one year ago. Our concern extends to all students affected by those tragedies, including those who live with mental illness as part of the community.
NAMI is an organization of individuals and families who themselves have been affected deeply by mental illness. We know that the likelihood of violence by people with mental illness is low. In fact, the U.S. Surgeon General has reported that "The overall contribution of mental disorders to the total level of violence in society is exceptionally small." Acts of violence are exceptional.
They are a sign that something has gone terribly wrong.
As with Virginia Tech, we owe it to all the individuals and families affected by the NIU tragedy to find out what went wrong. We need to find out everything that contributed to the tragedy---and to act on lessons learned. It is relevant to note that in NAMI's Grading the States report in 2006, the mental healthcare system in Virginia received a grade of D. Illinois received an F. In both states, there has been an urgent need for reform.
One in four adults—approximately 57.7 million Americans— experience a mental health disorder in a given year. One in 17 lives with a serious mental illness, such as schizophrenia, major depression or bipolar disorder. About one in 10 children have a serious mental or emotional disorder.
Half of all lifetime cases of mental illness begin by age 14, three quarters by age 24, making college students a population of high onset risk.
Yet nearly 50% of all people with a serious mental illness do not get the treatment they need
These facts are a call to action.
NAMI urges formation and expansion of campus services and supports for students with mental illness, including:
NAMI also calls on colleges and universities to work through education and their policies to eliminate stigma or discrimination against individuals with mental illness. Treatment works. Students today are able to thrive in college communities as part of a process of recovery. No one should ever be discriminated against because they ask for help when they need it—and receive effective treatment and support.
