They're hungry. They're tired. They're uncomfortable. But by day 31, Survivor contestants can often struggle with crippling homesickness.
As one of the most emotional contestants on Survivor: Philippines, Lisa Whelchel developed a coping mechanism to survive being away from her family. "I tried not to think about my loved ones at home, except to pray for them," Whelchel tells PEOPLE. "But I couldn't help but anticipate and hope that I made it long enough in the game to get to see my brother."
On Wednesday's episode of Survivor, Lisa is visited by her younger brother, Justice Coleman, 28, a pastor from Chatsworth, Calif., and the visit didn't go as planned.
"I came running out to give her the biggest hug of her life," Coleman tells PEOPLE. "I wasn't prepared to see her at that level of desperation. It was immediately obvious she had hit rock bottom."
"She broke down in my arms and was sobbing so hard and it was hard for me not to cry," he continues. "I wasn't expecting her to be at the end of her rope. She is a Survivor super fan and so I imagined her enjoying the game and having a blast."
"I almost didn't recognize her," he adds. "She looked absolutely ragged: physically and emotionally torn up. I was imagining a big smile on her face, since she was so deep into the game and doing so well, but she started crying so hard. I was legitimately concerned for her."
After the tears were dried, Coleman maintained he's proud of his sister for making the final six. "My sister has always been my role model growing up," he says. "In fact, she still is."

The Kelvin Hoody brings the protection of a sleeping bag in the form of a jacket to frost ridden mountain sessions spent glassing mountain topography. Enjoy the brilliant convenience of a balmy micro climate thanks to PrimaLoft's Down Blend Gold insulation.
As part of your Big Game system, this intense insulator is like a sleepingbag for your upper body. While your legs chew up the miles, the Kelvin Down Hoody rides neatly compressed in an included stuff sack. When you stop to hunker and glass, it contains your body heat in an envelope of goose feathers.
We've stuffed the Down Hoody's baffles with half a pound of PrimaLoft® Down Blend Gold insulation. The ample cut is designed to fit over the rest of your Sitka System, with wider arms, broader shoulders, and a longer torso than our other pieces, creating a portable capsule of balmy air where you can zip in and escape the chill. Insulated hand pockets are fully wrapped with down-filled baffles to thaw your fingers. The insulated hood provides additional heat containment, built in a dropaway configuration so it won't tug at the jacket collar when not in use. A large internal pocket stows your cold-weather necessities.
Ounce for ounce, down is warmer than any synthetic material, and with proper care, it will last a lifetime. The Down Hoody sandwiches quality down between light, rugged polyester mini ripstop fabric with a Durable Water Resistant finish.
"I use the Kelvin Series as my insulation layer for every cold Willamette Valley morning."
Very pleased! I have other items from Sitka and this was no let up. It is a sleeping bag with sleeves. I have not had this out hunting yet but I have worn it on cold winter days and it has been very comfortable and warm. Sizing is generous, which is great. Mine is XL but it also fits under my XXL Storm Front. I will be using this under multiple shells for big game and waterfowl hunts.
WARM! Seems designed a little large to go over a jacket or vest. Super nice! XL fits very well 6'1" and 220 lbs (over Kelvin jacket or vest).
Another great product from Sitka gear. I bought this last year after realizing I wanted a extremely warm coat for sitting and glassing as this is how I do a lot of my hunting. This coat is not for hiking or pushing brush. I used it in December on a elk hunt where the temp hunt around 10 degrees for the high and I stayed warm and dry. The bag it comes with is a plus as well when you want to store it in your pack
Used on a winter Predator hunt with the Kelvin lite pant. Kept me warm, really warm! Daily temperatures were in mid twenties. A good solution to staying warm in non-active hunting situations and perfect for glassing in late season. Im a size medium-large. I got it in large...it worked well worn over my other Sitka gear system.
This jacket is amazingly warm. I recently purchased it to take into elk camp at 9000 feet sleeping in single digit temps. I would wear it at night in my sleeping bag and was comfortable and warm every night. The stuff sack included is an excellent addition as well. I could pack it along and wear it while glassing or times when I was not exerting myself. As a GORE product tester we use a lot of these quality products and this jacket is one of my new favorites.
Wouldn't trade it for love nor money! However, I may end up having to buy a second one since when I took my wife with to the mountains last fall I had to keep letting her use it. So, technically, I guess I did borrow it for love. Lol. Anyway, it is super warm, sized really big for fitting over everything else, had I known that it ran SO big I would've actually ordered a size smaller since I like using it with just a shirt under it. I really like the light weight and compactablity of it. Just remember that it's light because the fabric is thin, it isn't designed to be a blizzard stopper. My arms did loose some heat when I would sit in the high wind from well before dawn until noon watching for whitetails on the North Dakota prairie with the temps maybe getting up to zero.
Its almost perfect so I will only mention the CONS. The zipper catches constantly if done all the way up, it requires you to grab the inside of the collar to unzip after awhile. The bottom of the pockets are flush with the bottom of the zipper so if the pockets are left unzipped items will fall right out.
Great product and amazing warmth. It packs down to nothing inside my pack. It is my go to insulation for those colder days. I love that it comes with the sack to stuff the coat in also. After having this coat for a while I found myself using the stuff sack just as much as the coat for other things. I started stuffing extra gloves, hats, and other things when I didn't need the coat in my pack. I really wish Sitka would offer some small sacks like this to stuff your gear into. Great product none the less!
This is the newest part of my hunting system from Sitka. The Kelvin Down Hoodie is made to keep the bone chilling cold from sending you back to camp. The hoodie is designed to be both light weight and extremely warm. At 27.20 ounces in size large, it won't weigh you pack down when hiking into the backcountry. The included stuff sack helps to pack the garment down to the size of a water bottle. When the temps start to dip or you are setting up to glass, put the hoodie on over your outer layers and you will quickly realize just how warm the Kelvin Down Hoodie is. You will feel like you are wearing a sleeping bag. As a product tester for GORE, I have tried out a lot of different articles of clothing. In the cold temperatures in Wisconsin, this has kept me in my stand long after other hunters have gone back for breakfast.
I was looking for an all around winter coat for Thunder Bay winters and turned to companies I knew I would get a decent product from. The first thing to mention about this jacket is how light it is. Weighing only 27oz this jacket is ideal for wearing around and never gets in the way. Even for those looking to wear a back-pack, this coat doesn't get in the way. This jacket also cuts the wind and is unbelievably warm. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a winter jacket, or for any situations requiring minimal movement due to the insulation qualities of this coat. One thing I would consider changing on this jacket is the angle of the side pockets. They are on somewhat of a downward slope allowing for things to fall out of the hand pockets. Perhaps a deeper pocket (lower then the zipper) could solve this. All in all a great purchase and worth every penny!!!!
I put my new jacket to a good test this weekend and it passed with flying colors. The down hoody is very warm, light, comfortable and easy to pack. I will be buying Kelvin pants now. My hunt this weekend was 22 degrees in Mississippi. I wore core next to skin, traverse insulation, 90% jacket and pants and the down hoody and stayed very warm. For those who have never hunted in this part of the country, temps below freezing with the high humidity is very cold. I also hunt in Colorado an think 32 in Mississippi is comparable to 10 in Colorado. That being said, this jacket in my opinion is good for temps down to zero degrees and below. I wore thin traverse gloves and with my hands in the pockets they never got cold. Lastly when I had the hood on with my traverse balaclava my head and face felt hot. I love this jacket.
There's not a whole lot I can add to what the previous review mentioned. This jacket is an absolute must when going into cold climate. You want to stay warm, you take the Down Hoody. I could wear this jacket everywhere. It will never leave my pack on cold days. Another winner from the Sitka line. If your in debate between the Kelvin and the Kelvin Down Hoody, go with the Down Hoody. My new favorite from Sitka.
Surprised! When Sitka Gear came out with this jacket I thought that it would only be for a small niche of users. Well I was wrong! As a Gore product tester I have certain opportunities that come my way, one of which was testing this jacket. On a recent hunt for September archery elk my hunting partner brought me a Down Hoody to use. I wore this jacket more that I thought I would. When I woke up and got out of my sleeping bag I put this on, it made it a lot easier to get going on the 16 degree morning. I threw it in my pack for the day and anytime we stopped for snacks or to glass I put it on. It was cold enough at times to keep it on while hiking and then just shed it once I got warmed up. When we were sitting in a spot for the evening hunt I put it on and was able to peel it off for a quick stalk. The hand pockets are insulated to thaw my frozen, stiff hands and the hood fit perfectly. Didn't block my vision and gave me some great insulation. The jacket is plenty durable too. When I was hiking in it I snagged some branches and looked down thinking "that was the one that ripped the down out" but no, not with this jacket! Not a scratch! The versatility is also something to think about. I used this as a pillow at night (also during the day), when it was really cold I zipped it up around the foot of my sleeping bag for more insulation, and when it was in my pack it worked great as padding for my optics. This jacket, combined with the Kelvin pants, could also be used as a bivy set up and leave your sleeping bag at home. If you want a great warm, comfortable, durable, versatile jacket get the Kelvin Down Hoody. You won't be disappointed!

Ceiling Types
Looking out for the home owner is our business. Providing insightful magazine articles, new remodel ideas, and free estimates from certified local contractors to finish your ceiling project is what makes CalFinder your professional choice.
The sky's the limit when it comes to designing your ceilings. One of the biggest considerations for ceilings is height. Raised ceilings illuminate the room with a larger space and give the home a more custom appearance. Raised ceiling options include the cathedral ceiling, tray ceiling, cove ceiling, and more.
On the other end of the spectrum is the drop ceiling. Popular in rooms such as the basement, drop ceilings create a sound barrier to help keep a room quiet. They can also cover unsightly wiring and pipes that are located along the top of the room. Keep in mind, though, that you will lose about 8 inches of headroom with a dropped ceiling.
But height isn't the only way to personalize your ceiling. Even the standard, 8 ft ceiling can become unique with its own finishing material, whether it's drywall, tile, tin, or a hand-painted mural.

Outgoing is the a word meaning simply that one goes out of their way to meet and make new friends.Outgoing can be broken down into two words: Out and going. Outgoing involves people going out of their way to make friends and to be sociable! One who is outgoing tends to make friends easily due to the high level of "risks" that they are willing to take to meet people, make friends, and have fun. The opposite of Outgoing would be timidity and shyness! Being outgoing is doing anything that causes people to gravitate to you! Outgoing people are usually the life of most parties. Outgoing people tend to be deemed cool and chill!
Jax was the center of attention by all the girls because he was so outgoing! He was never shy and "scared" to talk to new people yet was very sociable! He never backed out of a dare because he was outgoing and willing to try new stuff!

clay's mom says he is a womanizer because he doesn't call the bitches back.
dodane przez retr0 marzec 04, 2004
A womanizer is a man who repeatedly gets emotionally and sexually involved with other women while - not necessarily - being in a primary relationship. He indulges in flirtatious behaviors, attracting women with his charm and wooing conduct. Womanizing males are often very charming, appealing, and may even seem vulnerable, which many women find most endearing. Along with the playful seduction come flattering words, gifts, entertainment and fun activities bestowed upon his momentary love interest.
After he dropped you off, he called Ashley for a date. Don't you see it!? He's just a womanizer!

Taking guns from all won't solve the problem
Following the recent tragedy in Connecticut, Americans need to realize that removing guns from law-abiding citizens is not the answer. It is not surprising to anyone that this country is spiraling out of control because of misconstrued priorities.
How's the war on drugs going? Has it been effective? In a society where guns are made illegal, albeit in demand, they will follow the same routes as the illegal drugs. How about the two wars in the Middle East that have been put on a credit card? Domestically, we sure could have used that money. Where are our priorities? We've spent trillions in Iraq and Afghanistan, yet our schools and valuable community programs experience significant budget cuts.
How about Erie County? We're cutting valuable social and educational programs yet our local and state governments are preparing to hand the Buffalo Bills and their millionaire owner a few hundred million.
A work colleague suggested that we have something along the lines of school marshals – trained, armed law enforcement officers, like those in aviation security. Does anyone want to balk at how intrusive or intimidating it would be to have armed officers in schools?
My response is, you can't have it all. Or maybe the idea is good, but there's no money for such a program. I ask lawmakers to address the bigger problem than the perceived one that gun ownership poses. Look at how and where the government spends its money. The answer to this problem lies not on infringing on the rights of a select group of Americans, but rather our lawmakers focusing on putting Americans first.

One of the most common forms of irregular heartbeat is atrial fibrillation, which affects as many as 2.7 million Americans. Atrial fibrillation (a-fib) not only causes discomfort, disruption and fatigue but also can lead to more serious problems such as stroke if left untreated.
Yet there are treatments that can help, including a potential long-term solution called cardiac ablation therapy that has been proven effective for patients who have the procedure done in time.
Atrial fibrillation is essentially an electrical problem of the heart with episodes of rapid and disorganized heartbeat, as Scott Green of Summerville knows firsthand.
While Greens initial experience with atrial fibrillation caught him by surprise, it became a regular occurrence over time, as often happens with age. I had atrial fibrillation on and off for about 10 years, says Green, who is 53. Then the symptoms became more prevalent and bothered me more often, and they werent able to control it with medication.
The times that his irregular heartbeat persisted without stopping, Green would go to the electrophysiology (EP) lab at Trident Medical Center for an outpatient procedure called electrical cardioversion, which shocked his heart back into rhythm. But even though electrical cardioversion can be effective, it is often a temporary fix.
When Green starting receiving electrical cardioversion on a monthly basis, his cardiologist recommended that he see Dr. Darren Sidney, an electrophysiologist with Charleston Heart Specialists, for cardiac ablation therapy.
Dr. Sidney does cardiac ablation in the controlled setting of the EP lab with specially trained staff. Catheters are inserted into a blood vessel in the patients groin and neck and guided to the heart area, where Dr. Sidney uses electrodes to pinpoint trouble spots. He then burns around those trouble spots so they wont trigger irregular rhythms any more. The scar tissue acts like a wall, containing rogue electrical impulses that would otherwise cause the heart to quiver.
Dr. Sidney has found that ablation stops or curbs a-fib in most patients. The key, he says, is to do ablation before its too late. Once you go to into a-fib all the time, then it becomes difficult to ablate.
Green only had to stay overnight in the hospital after his cardiac ablation and was up and around within a week. I had the procedure in April, and it has been a great success for me. Im off medications now, and I havent had any more atrial fibrillation since then, he says. I can go out and play golf now, and I dont worry about having a problem, or even mowing the yard or traveling out of town.
A father of two daughters, Green also enjoys cheering at football games for the University of South Carolina, where his youngest attends college. Ill probably go to a few more this year.

School: St. Bonaventure
Nickname: Bonnies
Affiliation: Atlantic 10
Coach: Jim Crowley
2011-12 record: 31-4, 14-0
The only thing that could have made last year even better for the St. Bonaventure women's basketball team was completing a comeback in the Atlantic 10 Championship game against Dayton. And don't think that loss doesn't still sting the players a bit. Still the Bonnies had a magical season, going undefeated in the A-10 and winning 31 games. They not only made the NCAA tournament field for the first time but also made the most of their opportunity by advancing to the Sweet 16.
The encore will be neither as good nor as bad as people may think.
The team loses three key seniors to graduation — Jessica Jenkins, Megan Van Tatenhove and Armelia Horton. And just when the returning group of players had become comfortable with their new leadership roles, senior guard Chelsea Bowker broke her ankle and is out for the season.
That means three key returnees, senior Alaina Walker and junior CeCe Dixon (both guards) and junior forward Doris Ortega need to get comfortable with being uncomfortable and make peace with the notion of failure in order to lead this season's Bona team.
"Two things they learned from all the [former players] is that you've got to stay who you are but you've got to realize that if winning matters, then comfort's got to take a back seat," coach Jim Crowley said.
"The great thing about CeCe and Doris is they'll make the plays but last year, they knew it was Meg and Jess. Now they've got to be willing to embrace that role and more importantly they have to be able to handle that failure."
Ortega started 33 games last season and became vital in the Bonnies' postseason run. She recorded her first career double-double in the Atlantic 10 Championship game (18 points, 12 rebounds) and followed that up with another against Marist in the NCAA tournament (13 points, 10 rebounds).
Dixon is the top returning scorer for the Bonnies, averaging 7.6 points a game while running the point. Walker started every game last season and was named to the A-10 All-Defensive Team.
Bowker was expected to be a key cog for the Bonnies this season. The 5-foot-11 forward has the strength to battle in the low post and also has a fantastic shooting range. Bowker ranks in the top 10 on the school's all-time three-point shooting list while defensively she comes up with loose balls no one else seems to find. More importantly, she was set to take over the vocal leadership of the team after Jenkins and Van Tatenhove graduated. That was until she broke her ankle at the start of official practices.
Keys to success
It starts with the returning three — Dixon, Ortega and Walker. They need to step into new roles and they need to bring it every day in practice.
Why? Say hello to six freshmen. That's a big class for any program, let alone one with a recent history of incredible success.
What the Bonnies need to find is their "bailout" player. In successful seasons, they've always had at least one — from Dana Mitchell to Jenkins and Van Tatenhove. Ortega and Dixon have that ability. They need to fully embrace and step into that role.
Big games
One of the problems of winning — it's more difficult to schedule non-conference games. Yet the Bonnies have another aggressive schedule. Among the key games will be at Niagara (Nov. 12), at Fairfield (Nov. 20) and a matchup against Georgia in the first round of the New Mexico Tournament and North Carolina State (Dec. 30). Key A-10 games at home include Temple (Jan. 13) and Dayton (Feb. 21).
The Bonnies are not going back to the Sweet 16 and probably not the NCAA tournament. But they are good. It might be a stretch to hit 20 this year, but 17 or 18 is still possible.

- One thing that puzzles me about this whole discussion is the seeming lack of controversy when the Shibutanis stopped and then restarted their program at a GP event.
Their situation was very much the same as Virtue/Moir's. When the Shibs stopped their program, no immediate official announcement was made as to the reason. After the program, the Shibs said that the problem had been that Alex had a leg cramp.
I do not recall any cloud of suspicion that the Shibutanis were less than honest with the referee or any suggestion that they had abused the rules. And I do not recall any clamor for the ISU to change its rules.
So why now all the skepticism in V/M's case? Why only now all the criticism of the ISU rules?
I "get" that V/M receive more attention in general because they are Olympic and World champions. But with World and GP medals, the Shibs are not exactly chopped liver either.
N.B.: I am not pointing an accusatory finger at the Shibs. I do not think that they did anything wrong. I do not think that V/M did anything wrong either. Just wondering about the different reactions to the two teams.
- For those who say that Virtue did not appear to be in pain, I would note that she unfortunately has had a lot of experience in hiding pain.
For a length of time after her first surgery, she did not let even Moir see how much pain she was feeling. Virtue wanted to protect him from the mental burden of knowing that she was in severe pain, but her stoicism instead badly confused Moir as to what her body was and was not capable of doing. It became one of the serious communication problems between them during that period that put an uncharacteristic strain on their historically solid partnership.
And right through the Olympics, Virtue was skating in pain, but she did not make any public disclosure until much later. Other than her innermost circle, no one had a clue.
IMHO, Pyette's tweet seemed to be written from more of a big-picture long view ... which I interpret as something like, "Virtue doesn't let minor pain stop her from achieving a season's best score."

There was a great deal of unhappiness with the Shibs and with the rule at the time of CoR. However, less people are Shib fans, so there was less discussion. Also, clearly the Shib's scores suffered a great deal at the time and finished fourth, behind a team just up from juniors, so people who felt they should finish off the podium for interrupting the program had nothing to complain about...they had finished off the podium.
This is an old argument. Many people felt the pair team of Zhang & Zhang should have been more penalized in the 2006 Olympics rather than going on to win silver after Zhang Dan's horrific fall on a throw quad.
This is the third time we've seen the way this rule works (or doesn't work), and it's no wonder people want the rule changed; there was an outcry on the boards all 3 times, less with the Shibs because their scores were affected, than with V&M and the Zhangs, whose score appeared unaffected.
That's one thing.
But clearly Tessa had a leg cramp, or the lift would have gone up.
Clearly it was Tessa and not Scott, because if you look at the mechanics of that lift, she's the one that dives into a handstand on his leg, and she didn't do it.
It is a fact that Tessa has unfortunately had to know how to skate through pain for a long time; no one should be surprised that she can do it.
So I do not like to see unsourced rumors that they were faking an injury.
But also, I think the rule needs some changes, too. Skating is a sport, after all.
I actually think that V/M's score was affected: one judge gave them 9.75 for PE, but another one gave 8.50, and another one 8.75, that are "low" marks for them; these are their PE marks from 4CC: 8.75 9.00 8.50 9.00 9.75 9.50 9.50 9.50 9.50 and these are their PE marks from the GPF: 9.75 9.75 9.50 9.50 9.25 9.50 9.75 9.50 9.75. I think that their performance itself at 4CC was better than the GPF one, it's just that at 4CC there was that interruption, so I think that it was reflected in the PE marks, and it was fair... Then, their DiSt received "just" a +1.86 GOE and a Level 3, and their ChLi received two +1s, that's what made the difference between D/W and them: the interruption actually affected the score!
I agree. Perhaps the scores were affected, but it only appeared not to be because the improvements cancelled the losses caused by the stop in the program.
Watching the V/M FD video, at one point after they first stopped, it appears Tessa's left leg began to buckle under her and she started to slump downwards slightly in Scott's arms (at about 2:58). She seemed to favor that leg afterwards as she glided backwards while talking to Scott. You can see her lifting the leg a couple times (at 3:01 and 3:04). During the replay from the opposite view (at 4:32), you can also see Scott slump downwards. Perhaps because Tessa was pulling him down with her weight leaning on him.

Of course, in 2011 they withdrew from the competition, but at least they gave an interview telling what went wrong. Have they done that this year? Broadcasters had some tech difficulties in this 2011 vid
How do you react to the leg rubbing at the 0.40 mark? A little too blatant for my taste, but daring. There are two other moves in the program which strike me the same way. I guess they are trying to push the envelope.

Does the "something different" have to be vulgar? There were lots of innovative moves they could have done other than face-to-crotch and hand-to-thigh.
Carmen is a story about sex and power. Is it possible to make a Disney version of Carmen? Sure. I'm sure if Marina Zoueva believed that majority of the figure skating audience and judging panels would shocked to the core when they see a woman's hand on a man's thigh, that's exactly what she would have recommended. I believe however, she remembers what ice dance used to look like in the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s, before the majority of senior ice dancers were under 25.

Children should be protected from dangers of tanning beds
April 10, 2013
Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer. Sadly, West Virginia's melanoma rates are higher than the national average....
Good advice. Obviously "it's better to be white" will have more impact than "HEY YOU COULD GET CANCER."

Let me get this straight:
Our society would ban a teen from making her own health decision and going to a tanning bed if she chooses...
However, when she wants to go have a potentially dangerous surgery for herself and definitely kill another human (her baby), then we won't ban her, but will actually pay for it and not allow her parents or guardians to know...
Our society is so pathetically dumb.

Major: Maybe we ought to encourage our young ladies that once upon a time it was very desirable that the flaxen, raven and auburn haireds dermis was a soft alabaster tone. Tanning salons reflect a hurriedness, coarseness and other less feminine things. Maybe that might lessen this grotesque practice.
Nicely said, my friend. Agreed!

When Mary Kimmel sets out to visit her great-grandchildren in Wisconsin, she buys an Amtrak ticket - about $180 for a round trip on three trains - and avoids expensive flights and lengthy car trips.
Kimmel, a former Altoona school board member, said the possible loss this year of western Pennsylvania Amtrak service would leave her, and thousands of others, unable to travel easily to faraway cities.
"It's a black eye for Altoona. What a slap in the face to the people who built this community," she said. "I know it seems like a little bit of money, but where else will it go?"
Pennsylvania will have to contribute an estimated $5.7 million annually for Amtrak's Keystone West line to keep running through Altoona, Tyrone, Huntingdon and other communities. And while the decision rests largely in PennDOT's hands, rail advocates say Gov. Tom Corbett's proposed budget might hold the key to preserving the region's last surviving passenger train.
Beneath the governor's headline-grabbing transportation proposals, like a wholesale gas-tax increase, is an $80 million fund for "multi-modal" transit: bicycle lanes, airports, pedestrian paths and railroads.
"Maybe that's a source where it could come from. ... It could be a starting point for some changes," Michael C. Alexander, president of Western Pennsylvanians for Passenger Rail, said.
Corbett's budget proposal doesn't include as much for transportation as many would like, Alexander said, but the $5.7 million subsidy would be enough to keep the western route alive at a time when the Harrisburg-to-Philadelphia line is held up as an intercity transit success story.
The subsidy, set to be billed to the state in October as part of a 2008 federal law, would keep the Keystone West line running at a nearly $27-per-ticket cost to taxpayers.
The subsidy is roughly the same annual cost as a single Pittsburgh-area bridge replacement carried out this year, Alexander noted.
"We're trying to make the point that this is really not very much money," he said. "PennDOT has been presented a bill by Amtrak - well, if you don't pay the bill, the service is cut off just like if you didn't pay your electricity or your cable bill."
Among those fighting to keep that bill paid is state Rep. Mike Fleck, R-Huntingdon, who said rural communities like Huntingdon rely heavily on even once-a-day train routes.
Fleck said he's joined other rural legislators to push for the Amtrak money in next year's budget. With no specific line items mentioned in Corbett's $80 million multi-modal fund, there's an opportunity to include the subsidy before a final budget vote this summer, he said.
"There's no big pot of money in Harrisburg, that's for sure," Fleck said. "But I think [Amtrak] will be, definitely, part of the proposal."
Fleck said he often takes the train from Harrisburg to Philadelphia during General Assembly sessions. Running more than a dozen times a day at high speeds along relatively flat land, the Keystone East segment isn't at risk of elimination.
But the western route crosses the Allegheny Mountains, with sharp turns like the famed Horseshoe Curve keeping the line slower than cars on the turnpike.
Such slow travel would render a train less likely to compete with buses or even cars on a level playing field, said Nate Benefield, director of policy analysis for the Commonwealth Foundation, a Harrisburg-based conservative think tank.
"There's no reason why government should be funding failing business models. When you look at how much money they're bleeding, how much they're subsidizing per passenger, I wouldn't say it's successful," Benefield said.
He said Amtrak's system should be eliminated and left in private hands, perhaps with passenger subsidies to keep rates low for those who can't afford more expensive transit.
But could that leave Altoona, Johnstown and other communities without any affordable means to reach other cities?
"Maybe, maybe not," he said. "Obviously Amtrak is competing with Megabus and Greyhound."
An east-west Greyhound line stops in Altoona on the way to Ebensburg, while discount company Megabus stops only in major cities and student hubs, like State College.
But buses and cars don't always offer the same speed and ease of travel, said Bill Stodart of Ebensburg, a physical therapy assistant professor at St. Francis University.
Stodart, who takes the train from Altoona to New York's Penn Station to visit his brother on Long Island, has written to PennDOT to lobby for the threatened line.
"It's a better way to travel than a bus. ... This is not a token service," Stodart said, adding that when he boards and departs at the Altoona Amtrak station, he's surprised at the number of passengers using the service.
Stodart isn't the only one lobbying for trains here: On the Western Pennsylvanians for Passenger Rail website, a printable flyer labeled "HELP SAVE YOUR TRAIN" includes Corbett's office number and a plea to contact local legislators.
On the same page appear two side-by-side photos. One, dated 2006, shows a shining Amtrak train rounding Altoona's Horseshoe Curve; the other, dated "10/1/2013?", shows a lonely freight engine passing the curve, with no passengers left on the line.
"We're going to talk about it to see if there's anything we can do to help," said state Sen. John H. Eichelberger Jr., R-Blair, who sits on the Senate Transportation Committee. "I'm anxious to see. Certainly rail's important to what we do in this state."
U.S. Rep. Bill Shuster, R-9th District, doesn't exercise direct influence over the state decision, but his House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee holds sway over federal policy. In an email statement, Shuster stood between both sides, noting the region's long railroad history but recognizing the state's need for "tough budgetary decisions."
Shuster co-sponsored the Passenger Rail Investment and Improvement Act of 2008, which established the rule that will soon make the line Pennsylvania's fiscal responsibility.
Despite passengers' and advocates' concerns, some say the demand remains high enough to preserve the train. Some 27,000 passengers entered and exited "The Pennsylvanian" in fiscal year 2012, according to Amtrak statistics.
"It's a necessity," Kimmel said. "It's in my life, it's in our lives, it's in our forefathers' lives."

About Green Tara:Green Tara is a female Buddha. In fact, she is the manifestation of the wisdom of all the Buddhas, and the goddess who accomplishes their enlightened activities. Her name means "Saviouress," and it is she who comes swiftly to protect all beings from fear.
Tara was once a human being. Through countless lifetimes of practicing compassionate and courageous activities to benefit others, she attained liberation.
Many legends are associated with Tara. It is said that she arose from the tears of Avalokiteshvara, the bodhisattva of compassion, as he wept in despair because he was unable to fulfill his task to save all beings from suffering. Tara consoled him, and offered to assume the form of a female bodhisattva in order to assist him in his noble endeavors.
It is important to remember that we are never separate from Tara. When we call on Tara to grant our needs or to allay our fears, we are calling on the awakened qualities of our own true nature.
Green Tara embodies the the feminine aspect of wisdom expressed through enlightened activity of all the Buddhas. She is the protectoress from fear and mental obscurations. Her right hand, extended in the giving mudra, bestows the common and uncommon siddhis or accomplishments. She is shown holding a vase, symbol of the vase empowerment, for purification. Her left hand is held in the gesture of fearlessness to bestow protection.

Haley asked Did you enjoy TN?
I did enjoy Tennessee! I have been before and my personal favorite is to be in the mountains. This was my first time in Nashville and I'll admit that the entire time we were there I was inside the Hotel Preston until we left on Sunday!
From Krista: Did any speakers share something that really sticks out in your mind as a reason to attend an event like this?
The great thing about conferences like this is that you can be any type of blogger and probably get something out of it just for you. For those that are interested in branding or monetizing their blogs, then there's plenty of that. For those that just want to meet other bloggers in person that you admire, follow, or are friends with online, it's perfect for that. And honestly there are tidbits from each session that most often anyone can take something away. I personally felt so refreshed about where I want blogging to take me and not take me after this weekend.
And I will say that yes, I enjoyed several speakers and the ones that really stood out in my mind are Catherine (Her Bad Mother) who when talking about just what we should share and write about said, "I always err on the side of forgiving myself." And when Alli (Mrs. Fussypants) and Megan (Velveteen Mind) openly shared their blog stats to a surprised audience (much less than you'd expect). Influence, writing skill, and reach are not measured by how many comments you have.
Nell asks HOW did it go for your first speaking gig? I assume this was your first?
This was my first speaking gig! Here's a photo that Beth took from my view on the panel.
I loved it. I wish it would have lasted forever. I spoke with Catherine (Her Bad Mother) and Shannon (Rocks In My Dryer) and we answered questions about our passion for writing and the whole process of it all and sharing it for all the world to see.
Adlai Did you cloth diaper Ivy while you were at the conference?
I did not cloth diaper while we were away. I did the Seventh Generation disposables and seriously would have had to pack an extra suitcase if I hadn't. (I could not wait to get those cloth diapers back on her once we got home, though!)
KAJ Are these conference for ANYONE? or just "professional" bloggers?
These conferences are definitely for anyone. As long as you like blogging or like to read blogs. Some of my favorite people there were people that aren't about making a profession out of blogging.
Beth hints with her questions... Did you laugh a lot? Did you borrow anyone's really cute, really adorable shoes? Did you eat ice cream?
Yes, Beth, I laughed alot and mostly in your presence. And mostly at myself as I always found myself doing really dumb things. I borrowed your really cute really adorable shoes after my really cute really adorable shoes were too painful to wear a moment longer. And I ate the best ice cream ever while in downtown Nashville with you on Sunday. I believe it was called Uncle Charlie's Caramel Pie or something like that? Mmmm. And I don't even like ice cream.
Have more questions? I've probably got more answers. Ask away.

A form of United States currency, specifically a Federal Reserve Note, which is the paper currency presently used by the United States. The ink on the reverse side of Federal Reserve Notes being green is what led to the nick name "greenback". To a lesser extent, Silver Certificates and United States Notes also had green backs, but the seal and serial numbers on the front were printed in blue instead of green ink. They were last issued in 1957 and 1966, respectively. Your parents probably remember them.
'Greenbacks' have been printed since before the turn of the 20th century, when the size of the paper currency was printed on was about 1/3 wider and 1/3 longer than its present size.

But at 17, Jack Youngs' thoughts turned down a disturbing new path.
Second story in a series
The mentally ill are under scrutiny and pressure like never before. Mental health budgets have been slashed. Inpatient beds are at historic lows. Emergency rooms and jails are the new front lines of care. And gun-control debates are focused on the mentally ill.But there is promise for change. State funding may increase. Research shows these illnesses are based in flawed physiology, not character flaws. And many who suffer are challenging stigmas.The Post and Courier will examine these issues in a series of stories over the coming months. In this installment we look at involuntary commitments, which are at the heart of state gun-control legislation.
He began to rub his hands together anxiously. He hung his head at the table and avoided friends.

The boy who once swam on the neighborhood team and rode his scooter along its tree-lined streets now hid in the safety of his bedroom as he plunged deeper down that lonely turn in his mind.
He had entered what his mother, Liz Youngs, now knows is called the prodromal phase, when early signs foreshadow a psychotic illness about to descend.
Suddenly, everyone was making fun of him. The house was bugged with hidden cameras. People were filming him and putting it on TV.
Jack didn't believe anything was wrong with him.
Neither did his parents.
Liz, so full of a mother's hopes for her only child, figured that any day he would wake up, come out of his room and get back to normal life.
But he didn't.
For 27 days, Jack refused to come out of his bedroom. He wouldn't shower, and he asked for food through his door.
He said things like, "I'm the one."
Liz and her husband lost hope. It was 2009 when they called Mobile Crisis, an emergency psychiatric team, to have Jack involuntarily committed to a hospital.
Liz didn't think much beyond that phone call, beyond just getting Jack help, terrified and confused as she was for her son.
She certainly didn't think of gun background checks or that one day there might be registries of the involuntarily committed, ones that will include people like Jack.
The Twilight Zone
The Youngses told Jack that some people were coming to see him. Which was true.
They just didn't expect the eight or so cars that pulled up on their quiet street bringing police, a psychiatrist, a medical doctor and others.
"He needs help," the psychiatrist said two hours later.
After filling out the so-called "white papers" that begin the commitment process, an officer handcuffed Jack and walked the docile teen out of their front door toward a squad car, trying to hide the cuffs with a jacket.
It humiliated Liz, with their neighbors watching, with Jack looking like a criminal as he left their home.
"That was horrible, and he didn't know what was happening," she recalled.
She followed the police car to MUSC's emergency room.
A deputy stood at Jack's bed. A nurse took blood. A psychiatrist interviewed him.
Jack, they agreed, could be a risk to himself and needed emergency inpatient care.
With Jack lying handcuffed in a bed amid the ER's ceaseless clamor, they waited. And waited.
The hours ticked through the afternoon and evening and into the night as they waited for an available psychiatric bed somewhere in town.
Through it all, Jack had done whatever people asked.
But after 12 hours, he grew impatient.
"What am I doing here?" he asked several times. "Why are you here Mom?"
At a weary 2 a.m., the staff found him a bed at Palmetto Behavioral Health System. Down silent streets toward North Charleston, Liz followed her son, once again handcuffed in a police car.
She checked him in and said goodbye. Then she cried the entire dark drive home.
"I thought I'd entered the Twilight Zone," she recalled.
She figured they would go see Jack the next day to comfort him and meet with his doctors.
Instead, for five days his medical team said they would let her know when they had a diagnosis.
"It was very frightening and very frustrating — awful, frankly," Liz said. "We were completely unaware of what was happening."
Instead, each day she drove to the hospital and sat in her car, just to glimpse Jack walking to and from the cafeteria.
Worst nightmare
By the time they saw Jack in person again, he was clearly medicated. The hospital staff had cut his long, dirty hair because he wouldn't bathe.
"He was himself — but not really," Liz recalled.
Then came the diagnosis: schizophrenia.
"I didn't believe it," she said.
At home, wandering around Jack's bedroom, looking at his trophies and yearbooks and posters, the doubts settled in. They needled into her certainty that Jack had needed help.
Her beautiful, smart, outgoing son couldn't have schizophrenia.
"You second-guess everything," she said. "Then you beat yourself up."
Alone and terrified as she felt, her family's experience is remarkably normal for mental illness like schizophrenia.
Unlike most disabling diseases, mental illnesses tend to appear early in life. Schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and major depression in particular often strike first in the teens and 20s.
But all Liz knew then was that Jack had been a normal kid. And suddenly, he wasn't.
Going to court
During his hospitalization, the Youngses received a letter. They were to meet Jack at the Charleston County probate courtroom where commitment hearings are held.
Strangers filled the waiting room.
Two court-appointed mental health professionals interviewed Jack alone first.
Then they all entered the sterile courtroom. Liz sat 20 feet away from Jack, longing to take her child and go home.
Jack was coming home, right?
But the mental health experts determined that he needed further care. The judge agreed.
Liz and her husband drove home, once again without their son.
Thankful now
Jack stayed in the hospital for 30 days. Since then, his parents have committed him two more times, most recently last year, each time for his own safety.
They now find great relief in the treatment he has received.
"Now, I'm extremely grateful," Liz said. "Calling Mobile Crisis was the best thing we ever did."
His diagnosis has been modified to schizoaffective disorder with bipolar disorder, and the family is learning to live with its challenges. Liz has found huge support at the National Alliance on Mental Illness' local chapter, which offers classes for families like hers.
Jack is 24 now and lives at home. His parents are trying to help him become more independent.
But each day is a struggle.
Jack wanders their neighborhood. He walks down Mount Pleasant's traffic-choked Highway 17 and has been picked up by police for his own safety. He likes to go downtown and wants to hang out with friends again.
Yet he's too trusting, and his money has been stolen several times. Besides, his friends don't call anymore.
Instead, a helpful Mount Pleasant police officer stops by to see how he's doing.
"He's just lonely and wants friends. He's harmless, but people are afraid of him," Liz said. "Nobody comes to visit, nobody offers to hang out. Everyone just keeps their distance. It's so isolating."
Most of Jack's old friends have gone off to college and are moving into their careers anyway. Soon, they'll get married and start their own families.
Liz is happy for them. But it's hard.
"It breaks my heart every day to know my son most likely will never achieve the normal things in life," Liz said. "So I'm just going to save him as long as possible."
Jack and his parents like to watch movies together, go out to eat and go shopping. Jack especially loves the beach. It calms his mind and brings him some peace.
And that peace is what Liz dreams of most for her son today.

A reporter said to Penn State recruiting coordinator Charles London just as he wrapped up a meeting with the media on college football signing day Wednesday, "So, I guess on to 2014."
"And 2015," London replied with a smile.
The fact is that while the salvaging of the 2013 class and the ability to bring in several high-end prospects was a good start, the Nittany Lion coaching staff really will be put to the test in the next couple of seasons when they not only have to deal with a 15-scholarship limit per season, but also a 65-scholarship ceiling on the entire team.
"It's going to be a numbers game. It's going to be a balancing act, and that's going to be true for the next couple of years," Lions247's Sean Fitz said. "The 15 number probably doesn't affect the 2014 class as much as the 65 number."
That's a drop of 20 scholarships from other years. What that means as far as next year's recruiting class is that the Lions probably won't be able to even sign the reduced total of 15 the NCAA is permitting.
"Through talking to sources, I got the impression [they can sign] anywhere between eight and 10," BlueWhite Illustrated recruiting analyst Ryan Snyder said, who later thought the number could go as high as 12.
That's going to be a problem, because already at this point it looks like Penn State has a lot more slots to fill than it has scholarships to give.
"I think they need a defensive tackle. I think they need to focus again on defensive back, because the cupboard was so bare when they came in," FightOnState.com's Greg Pickel said. "I think you're going to see an offensive lineman come in, as well."
Other analysts thought there might be two offensive linemen. Even though Penn State already has a verbal commitment from Maryland all-purpose back Mark Allen, they've been giving out offers to top running backs from all over, like Washington, Pa.'s Shai McKenzie, Virginia's Nick Scott, New Jersey's Jonathan Hilliman, Georgia's Nick Chubb and Myles Autry and Florida's Sony Michel.
Linebacker is considered a less pressing need, but a need nonetheless. There's the likelihood of a wide receiver in the class. And it's been reported that the Lion staff would like to bring in one quarterback per season and has been actively recruiting that position, although it might be a victim of the numbers crunch.
According to Fitz's website, Penn State already has made scholarship offers to 43 players. In addition to Allen, several names already have emerged as front-runners to be part of this likely-to-be-abbreviated class.
n North Carolina wide receiver/cornerback/running back DeAndre Thompkins has Penn State very high on his list, but he might take time with his recruitment.
n Baltimore cornerback Troy Vincent, son of the former NFL player who also is trained by Stephon Morris' dad, Roman.
n Gateway safety Montae Nicholson and Good Counsel Maryland guard Sam Mustipher could reopen the recruiting lines to their highly productive schools.
n While not a typical recruiting hotbed, Delaware boasts two very interesting prospects this season in wide receiver Chris Godwin and linebacker Troy Reeder.
n Offensive tackle looks like a big need, and New Jersey's Quenton Nelson, Virginia's Steven Moss, Tennessee's Alex Bars, Bethel Park's Michael Grimm and Arizona's Andrew Mike are in the picture.
Penn State's off to such a good start. Ohio four-star wideout Thaddeus Snodgrass recently put on social media that the Lions were his early favorite, although whether or not there will be room at the inn for him is still up in the air.
"You have to aim high. You're not going in with lower expectations because of the number of scholarships you have and the lingering cloud over the program," Fitz said. "You have to go after those top-tier kids, see if you can pique some interest and get some kids on campus to see if they'll buy what you are selling."
