TRUCKEE, Calif. - On Oct. 11, 2012, I picked up a copy of the Sierra Sun while I was in town. An article, "Rec/Park District to discuss sale of Truckee Veteran's Hall," caught my interest. I read the article and wondered how a public entity can be sold to a private one? So I called a lawyer, my son, and he advised me that a public entity can be sold to a private business; however, what I needed to do was to research the deed and find out what stipulations were made by the previous owner of the Veteran's Hall, usually a city or a county, at the time the property was given to Truckee-Donner Recreation & Park District.At the board meeting on the same night, Steve Randall, the General Manager of TDRPD, passed a handout explaining the history of the transfer of VH from Nevada County to TDRPD. In 1994, the TDRPD acquired the VH building from the county for $1 with the stipulation that the building has to be used for recreation or be returned to the County. I assume that meant that the building must be used for recreation for all members of the community.So as an atheist living in town of Truckee, I don't see how selling VH to a church, any church, will add to my recreation's need as a member of the public? Churches don't pay taxes and don't contribute financially to the well-being of the community, and as far as their spiritual benefits they only pollute the young minds by telling us that the world was created in six days and that the earth is 6,000 years old. Just believe in that and see how far one gets in any profession except becoming another clergy.Now I don't have any problem with churches, and we sure have enough of them in Truckee. However, selling a public entity to a church is not right to me and there are many more people opposed to this transaction besides me. I have another proposal for the VH building - why not make it an "Anti Crime and Violence Museum"? Our young people are being brain washed with our news media and Hollywood thinking that violence, war and destruction is a glorious profession. They are constantly shown pictures of so-called "Shock and Awe," the computer game industry is making violence and killing cool and groovy thing to do and Hollywood makes movies where tanks can even fly. Wouldn't anyone just like to be in one of those tanks? I would, if I could.All these make war and violence a glorious thing to do and sends more and more of our young boys and girls to their young death in foreign places. So lets make VH an "Anti Crime and Violence Museum," and show what really happens in wars and when the war is over.Let's show the picture of all those veterans of wars who are homeless and panhandling in cities all over this country. Let's have pictures of the soldiers who are committing suicide more than one per day in our ongoing wars. Let's show what really happens when a tank blows up with an RPG. What happens when our drones attack innocent people in weddings and funerals. Let's put pictures of Abu Gharib on display or the urinating of our brave soldiers on the corpses of dead human beings.Why not show some of those bad apples we have in our wonderful military forces that are bringing democracy to other people at the point of gun, "accept my way of life or die." After all, America is all about choices. Also we can show documentaries on violence against women and victims of violence rampant in our society. From shootings in schools, universities and businesses to show that killing is not the solution to our daily problems. We are a nation addicted to violence and wars and believe that guns can solve all of our problems.The same way we educated our people against the dangers of smoking and drugs we can educate our young people against violence, war and destruction. There would be no violence if we could settle our differences with rational and peaceful communication.We also don't have to worry about traffic and other problems by building a lift which would take people from the bottom of the hill to the VH building and charge $10 per person or more. The town makes money, the TDRPD will make enough money to pay the $20,000 per-year cost of VH upkeep and we may even change the minds of our young people by showing them that violence is a behavior better left to the past and war is hell and not as glamorous as computer games, TV and movies make them to be and above all that our way of life is not the answer for the entire world.

ALBANY – Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo's seven-round limit on magazines sold in New York will be suspended "indefinitely" by a measure in his $136.5 billion budget set to be passed this week, said Dean Skelos, a State Senate majority leader, said.
The ban on magazines holding more than seven bullets was set to start April 15. Cuomo has said the law needs to be rolled back because manufacturers don't make seven-round holders. The measure was a centerpiece to a gun law the 55-year-old Democratic governor pushed through the Legislature in January, making New York the first state to respond with tougher gun regulations to the elementary school massacre in Newtown, Conn.
The budget "bill will have an indefinite postponement of the issue," Skelos, the Long Island Republican who co-leads the Senate with a group of five breakaway Democrats, told reporters in Albany on Sunday.
Josh Vlasto, a Cuomo spokesman, didn't respond to an email requesting comment.
The suspension means magazines holding up to 10 rounds will continue to be sold. Other pieces of Cuomo's gun law, including measures that close loopholes in a 2000 assault weapons ban that Cuomo said had more holes than Swiss cheese and tougher background checks for sales, won't be touched by the changes. The governor began pressing for tighter firearm controls after 20 children and six adults were gunned down at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown on Dec. 14.
Cuomo has been criticized by pro-gun groups, including the National Rifle Association, for waiving a requirement that bills sit for three days before they're passed. His gun law was passed within 24 hours of being introduced, a move Cuomo has said was necessary to prevent a sales rush on assault weapons.
Cuomo and the Legislature had once predicted the budget would be final March 21, but policy issues bogged down talks. Instead of passing an extraordinarily early budget as they planned, lawmakers are now rushing to meet the April 1 deadline a few days early. The Senate is scheduled to meet through Wednesday. The Assembly will return to Albany on Thursday to begin voting. Several religious holidays in the coming week, including Passover and Easter, have complicated scheduling.
In a rare Sunday session, State Senate lawmakers began advancing legislation.
The deal on the voting schedule was struck last week, but voluminous budget bills that in total are several feet thick had to be printed, and several policy issues, such as proposed restrictions on the New York Police Department's stop-and-frisk policy, were inserted, then extracted from, the 2013-14 budget as those talks delayed agreements.
State Sen. John DeFrancisco, a Syracuse Republican, said lawmakers hoped to have the rest printed by midnight Sunday.
Sunday, the State Senate began advancing measures for public protection, transportation and economic development.
DeFrancisco said Western New York should be pleased with the budget's economic development boosts, including funds to help keep the Buffalo Bills in Ralph Wilson Stadium.
Cuomo has said the budget holds spending increases under 2 percent in what would be a third consecutive on-time annual spending plan.
Though billed as not raising taxes, it is built on revenues from extending two taxes – one on millionaires and another on corporate energy bills – that were due to expire. Annual increases in public college tuition also would continue.
The agreement includes increasing the minimum wage to $8 on Jan. 1, $8.75 a year later and $9 a year after that. The current minimum wage is $7.25.
State Sen. Kevin Parker, a Brooklyn Democrat, said the wages are too low and that the $9 wage will be obsolete before it gets there.
The budget also calls for $350 tax rebate checks to be sent to New Yorkers in 2014, an election year. The checks will go to households with at least one child and an income of $40,000 to $300,000. Critics have called the move a political gimmick designed only to aid incumbents on Election Day.
Bloomberg News and the Associated Press contributed to this report.

The Right No by William Hathaway (Somondoco Press, 2012, $15)
William Hathaway's brilliant new volume of poetry, The Right No, ably demonstrates what happens when a poet moonlights as a philosopher.
In these poems he both asks and answers questions about identity, existence and time. He does so in a manner that only causes more questions to surface. Hathaway reminds us that above all we are simultaneously the eternally curious victims and the eternally curious conquerors not only of ourselves, but of an inexplicable universe. These are poems that reconcile ancient longings with the modern disbelief that causes us to declare "no" to the fragility of the human condition.
Article Photos
The first poem, aptly titled "No," takes place in a grocery store just as a storm is about to hit: "A storm is coming/so everyone's stocking up." This line is but a prelude to the next observation of the poem: "Something is always coming." He then clarifies exactly what it is that comes: "A storm, a Super Bowl, a war/until the nothing that ends us/comes." He punctuates this observation with the ultimate observation: "My death is coming..." The poet then articulates what he can do about the fact of death which touches everybody and everything:
But no. For a long time within me
a Great No has been coming
the way crows fill a tree...
Hathaway then allows us to realize that the poem is an address to Jesus: "and though I fear to quibble/with you, Jesus, (for I love you/fiercely)..." Addressing Christ leads him to reflect on the fact that not only do the goods in the store mean nothing, but that the gift of Christ "has been a labor upon the heart." Because of this, he says "no" to the coming oblivion, remaining loyal to Jesus as he states,
I stand
and wait as those before and after,
loyal to you who are the Truth.
Hathaway continues to philosophize about human mortality and the nature of time within the universe in poems which focus on the natural world and animal life. Poems such as "Red Squirrel Morning," "The Box Turtle," "The House Spiders" and "The Bear in the Bird Feeder" each open with a meditation on a specific animal, which then leads to an observation about the human condition and our place in the universe. In "Ow," a wounded red owl who is rescued by the poet then wounds the poet before speeding off: "and her talons seized into the soft/pommel of my thumb." The poet rejoices at the resilience of the bird: "Glad is the word old poets/called this sort of heart."
The poet continues the search for meaning in later poems such as "Breeze," where the simultaneous songs of a nuthatch, a sparrow and a yellowthroat lead him to reflect on the divine pattern found in things: "A design proving God is love,/perhaps? Or even that a racecar/driver we admire did not die/in vain?"
In "Reading Audubon with the Flu," he concludes, "a fevering mind can find no rest." It is this frenzy of thought, this desire to analyze, which drives the remarkable poems in this book. Perhaps the most poignant and telling lines of the volume are the concluding lines of "And Then Lights Out:" "For wisdom in blind seers/and fools alike is like that one star/that denies undeniable darkness."
The poems in The Right No cast an inextinguishable light on what is beautiful in the universe. As such, these poems illuminate the darkest corners of the human imagination. Though we are invited to imagine death and the possibility of a blank hereafter, Hathaway invites us into his world of "no," where denial is the most strident of affirmations.

Superficial thrombophlebitis is an inflammation of a vein just below the surface of the skin, which results from a blood clot. This condition may occur after recently using an IV line, or after trauma to the vein. Some symptoms can include pain and tenderness along the vein and hardening and feeling cord-like. Superficial thrombophlebitis is usually a benign and short-term condition. Symptoms generally subside in 1 to 2 weeks, but hardness of the vein may remain for much longer.

I saw a quote today and it made me think of my family, how precious they are. It made me realize once again that no matter how much we fight it, time really does fly.
"Four Things You Can't Recover:
The stone after the throw,
The word after it's said,
The occasion after it's missed,
The time after it's gone."
-Deanna Wadsworth-
It's so hard to believe that next month, Ray and I will be married nine years. It feels like just a short time ago that we met, became friends and fell in love.
It seems like just yesterday Emaleigh, my 8-year-old, was wobbling around the house asking to watch "Shwek" and responding to our kisses and I love you's with "I know you, too!"
And it's amazing to think that it has already been five years since Elijah (1 at the time) called his big sister "Moi" for the first time, imitating her every move.
Now, it's Eydan's turn to learn the ways of the world. Watching his big brother and sisters, he already wants to be just like them. He wakes up every morning asking for "Bubba" and is constantly giving Emaleigh kisses with a "mmmmmmm." It's these moments that I want to last forever. I never want to forget what the "newness" was like.
I know the above quote can be about many things, but to me it represents the ones I love most, and how as a mom, I need to protect and lengthen these relationships.
I have always been the mom to tell my kids, "If you don't want it done to you...don't do it to others." The stone after the throw and the word after it's said. Be very careful of the words you choose, especially when talking with your spouse or kids. Don't ever underestimate the power of your words. They are the fruit of life and death, and it's much easier to remember something mean that someone said than a compliment.
Always empower them with words of encouragement. Be supportive, in whatever way you can. Ray and I decided to start watching football together. It's been extremely awkward but fun learning about something that neither of us know anything about.
Invest in your family...they'll thank you for it.
The occasion after it's missed and the time after it's gone. Our days are not promised, and our kids are only "little" for so long. It might be small to you, but it's more than likely HUGE to your child.
Be a positive influence in your household...your kids are ALWAYS watching.
Don't take life for granted. Make it a point to have a date night every month with your spouse. Take time to color with your kids. Play catch, play with Play-Doh or even just place a pizza order. Spend time with your family. I encourage all of you moms to completely, wholeheartedly invest in your family.
It will be the most important profit of your life. It will make all of your memories much easier to remember, and hopefully slow down the ticking clock of time for just a moment.
Caiti Mondragon is married with three children. Read her regularly on Greeley Moms.

The Chicago Moms Blog and its sister blogs are discussing The Other Mother, the newest novel by Gwendolen Gross. I found this book compelling and I literally could not put it down. I love when this happens with a book! Some may think The Other Mother is about the Mommy War between stay-at-home Moms and working Moms. I saw it more as a familiar story of two Moms and their very realistic feelings, actions, and emotions through Motherhood. I think in many ways both Mothers have something about them to which you can relate, and you'll find yourself saying I know that Mother or maybe even I am that Mother...
I have always been a stay-at-home Mom and have no idea what it would be like to work while my kids were taken care of by someone else. To be honest, just thinking about that makes my heart race and my palms sweat. I am a very attached Mama to my babies and like to keep them close under my wing. I do not desire to have anyone else caring for my children but me, so strongly do I feel this that I've made the choice to not work and instead stay at home. We do make sacrifices and have a small house, not many luxuries, and go without extravagant vacations. And still, I know many working moms that live in a small house, don't have many luxuries, and go without extravagant vacations. All Moms, working or stay-at-home, make sacrifices.
But, we're not the type of people to really care about that stuff anyway. The important things are taken care of- and that's what matters to us. I know without a doubt that someday I will not look back on this time with regret. I personally am very proud of my decision to stay at home and parent my children full-time. I am thankful as a woman that I have this choice.
This is how I feel, and I don't know what it's like to be on that other side. But Gwendolen's story of two Mothers in The Other Mother sheds light and opened my eyes on an area I have never treaded upon. I have compassion for all Mothers- as we're doing the best we can. I don't want there to be a war, if there really is one going on between Moms. If anything, we need each other's support more than ever.
I think The Other Mother is also a good reminder that what appears so lovely and perfect on the outside is not always a true reflection of the inside of a person's heart or home. That is something I am often reminding my own self of. We are all that other Mother.

Debra Messing says she's 20 lbs. lighter, even though she wasn't trying to lose weight.
The actress, 45, tells ABC News that she switched to a healthy diet because she had low energy, and the weight just fell away.
"About two to three years ago, I made a very, very big change [to] the way I approach nutrition. I think it made a big difference in how I look or at least how I'm perceived to look," says the mom to 10-year-old son Roman.
"I lost like 20 lbs. – it wasn't my intention, that wasn't why I made the change. I made the change because I was just tired all the time," she says.
The former Smash star says she was raised on a poor diet and continued with those bad habits.
"I grew up on fast food and candy every day," she said. "Pizza and french fries and burgers – I love food and I've always loved food. Vegetables were not part of my life at all!"
But Messing became good friends with veggies when filming a new pilot, The Mysteries of Laura. Each morning, she would have a green juice made of kale, spinach, celery and cucumber – plus ginger and lemon for taste.

Authorities on Friday arrested a 49-year-old man accused of mortally wounding another man Thursday during a shooting inside a Colleton County nightclub.
Larry Henderson. of Hill Street in Walterboro, was charged with murder and using a gun in the commission of a violent crime after he surrendered to deputies nearly 24 hours after they said he shot and killed Leon Cockrum Jr. inside the Chase Lounge.
Deputies responded to the Proctor Street nightclub just outside Walterboro city limits at 8:38 p.m. Thursday. It was the second shooting at the club this year and the third since September.
Inside they found Cockrum, 52, bleeding from multiple gunshot wounds, Chief Deputy Ted Stanfield said.
Cockrum was airlifted to the Medical University Hospital, where he died about 3 a.m. Friday, Coroner Richard Harvey said.
Within hours deputies had arrest warrants for Henderson, although Stanfield declined to release an incident report.
Authorities searched for him until they received a call from him Friday evening. Deputies found him waiting behind his house, and he was arrested without incident, Stanfield said.
Henderson's arrest record dates to 1981. He was most recently arrested and charged with assault and second-degree battery in November by Walterboro Public Safety officers.
He also was convicted of DUI in January 2011.
Stanfield said there have been no discussions with the county about revoking the club's business license. Thursday's shooting was the first one recently that happened inside the club, and Stanfield said club officials were cooperative with deputies.
Colleton County Administrator Kevin Griffin said the county has discussed beefing up its nuisance ordinance to allow officials to shut down derelict properties with repeated issues, similar to what Walterboro has done.
On the heels of the shooting, 14th Circuit Solicitor Duffie Stone said he will announce a new strategy to prosecute gun violence throughout his five-county district on Monday in front of the Colleton County Courthouse in Walterboro.

The Albright-Knox Art Gallery announced Friday that it is developing a comprehensive master plan to address short-term space needs and long-term goals for growth, including possible expansion.
Snohetta, an international, award-winning architecture, landscape and interiors collaborative, will help map out changes to the 150-year-old gallery, which has a collection of more than 6,500 works.
"Space needs are one of the most critical issues facing the gallery today," Board President Leslie Zemsky said in a statement. "Our collection has grown significantly since our last expansion in 1962, and we urgently need to examine how our existing space is used to display, store and conserve the collection, and to optimize our facilities to provide an enhanced experience for our visitors."
Projects the Oslo, Norway-based Snohetta has worked on include expansion of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and redesigns of Times Square and the Oslo Opera House. Bright Spot Strategy of New York City will also consult on creating better visitor experiences, addressing space programming needs and developing a more productive work environment.
Gallery spokeswoman Maria Scully-Morreale said it was premature to speak about what a potential physical expansion could look like.
"We don't want to make any changes to the facility in the short term without considering the future, because of the historic nature of both buildings and the historic parkland we're on. We want to take a long-term view," she said.
Initial recommendations are expected by the end of spring.

• A six- to eight-week double-blind placebo-controlled trial of the potent and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor fluvoxamine was conducted in 42 patients with primary obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Approximately one half of the patients also had symptoms of major depression. Fluvoxamine was significantly better than placebo on all measures of obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Nine of 21 patients were responders ("much improved") with fluvoxamine compared with no responders with placebo, and fluvoxamine was effective in patients with OCD both with and without secondary depression. Response of OCD was not correlated with severity of baseline depression. These data lend partial support to the serotonin hypothesis of OCD. However, since a number of patients failed to respond to fluvoxamine, the role of other neurochemical systems in this disorder needs to be explored.

Everybody had a Jeffrey growing up. He was the kid in your neighborhood who lived across the street, an only child who had all the best toys, and did all those stupid stunts the rest of us were afraid to try.
Jeffrey would do it, and do it first.
When the rest of our gang really thought we could fly like Superman with nothing strapped to our backs but
Mom's good bath towel, Jeffrey took it to the next level. Jeffrey scoffed at our assorted bath towels. He was no dummy. He knew people couldn't fly like Superman.
No, but they could parachute instead like Vic Morrow in COMBAT! While we couldn't fly, we certainly should be able to parachute off, say, the corner of our neighbor's roof and glide like a leaf in autumn gently to earth.
Jeffrey had a flair for the dramatic. If he was going to test Isaac Newton's thought process, he wasn't going to do it without an audience.
So with his Mom's good bed sheet kite-stringed to his back, he gathered the gang together to show us how he planned to parachute off the corner of the roof and glide back to good old terra firma.
Did any of us try to talk Jeffrey out of jumping off the roof? Not really. We were only in fourth grade. We didn't understand quantum physics, laws of displacement, or Newtonian fundamentals of gravity.
Back then I understood one elementary concept of Newtonian theory: What goes up must come down. How fast was up to Jeffrey's parachute.
Jeffrey stepped to the edge of the roof, counted down from 10, and took flight in a graceful swan dive.
We gasped. He actually jumped.
And like most surreal moments, time seemed to stop.
Jeffrey seemed to levitate overhead, frozen in that moment's pause between beats of my hammering heart.
His parachute opened. Then closed. And Jeffrey fell.
Like a brick.
A two-bounce belly flop into the front yard... a 12-foot fall from rooftop to earth - impressive on its own merit but not quite how Jeffrey envisioned things turning out.
Tommy, being in sixth grade, the only one to suspect Jeffrey's jump had no chance of working, knelt down and looked at Jeffrey's color-drained face.
"Chute didn't open, Jeffrey."
Tommy had a way of stating the obvious.
This seemed to wrench Jeffrey back to reality. His cheeks flushed red.
He caught his breath. His eyes squinched shut. Then he screamed all the way home like his Momma beat him with a stick, bed sheets trailing behind him.
For a parachute, Jeffrey's bed sheets made a nice Superman cape.
Jeffrey was useful for a lot of things. He caught my first curve ball because no one else dared play catch with me. I broke his nose.
It was Jeffrey who devised the extortion scheme to fleece the Tooth Fairy for extra cash that summer so long ago, and we never tried to dissuade him from the notion that tying kite string to your loose front tooth and the bedroom doorknob really did work. The legal issues regarding the dentist bill were never completely resolved.
Every neighborhood gang had a Jeffrey, and I wonder, after all those years, what happened to him.
One year between sixth and seventh grade, Jeffrey's family moved away. He just up and disappeared.
So I pay this homage to my childhood friend, who couldn't tell the difference between bravery and stupidity.
Here's to you, Jeffrey, a Common Man's tip of the hat.
I could never tell the difference, either.

The cheers Wednesday morning in First Niagara Center were louder and heartier than the Buffalo Sabres have been able to elicit from fans this season.
And they were all for a proposed state tax credit, instead of an overtime thriller.
About 10,000 students, most of them from area Catholic schools, put instruction aside for a few hours to rally in support of state legislation that could help make private-school education more affordable.
Elementary and high school students were bused from Catholic schools across Western New York for the "Invest in Education Tax Credit Rally," which featured speakers such as Bishop Richard J. Malone; State Sen. George D. Maziarz, R-Newfane; and former Buffalo Bills quarterback Jim Kelly (shown in a video) advocating a bill that would give donors a dollar-for-dollar tax credit for their private contributions to scholarship funds and public schools.
Last year, the State Senate passed a tax credit proposal, which has support from an eclectic alliance that includes Catholic bishops, the Lutheran Schools Association, Jewish groups and school choice proponents. But a similar bill introduced in the Assembly in January was stuck in the Ways and Means Committee and is unlikely to be considered again until the 2014 state budget talks. The bill has support from several members of the Western New York delegation, including Assemblywoman Crystal Peoples-Stokes, D-Buffalo, and Assemblyman Robin Schimminger, D-Kenmore, both of whom attended the rally.
Last year, nearly 17,000 children attended 67 Catholic elementary and high schools, and without those schools public school classrooms would be overflowing with students and property taxes would skyrocket, said Schimminger.
"We can prevent that by keeping Catholic school education viable and affordable," he said. "And we can do the same for our Jewish schools and Lutheran schools and all the rest, and we can protect our public schools at the same time."
But opponents of the proposed legislation said it was a veiled effort to subsidize private schools with taxpayer dollars and would siphon money from public education.
"Legislation like this diverts already scarce resources from public schools, which serve more than 90 percent of students," said Carl Korn, spokesman for the New York State United Teachers, which represents 600,000 people who work in education.
The latest state budget increases aid to public schools, but funding is still lower than it was five years ago, he said.
"We respect the decision of parents to send their children to private and parochial schools, but taxpayers should not subsidize that choice," he said.
The bill would allow up to $150 million in tax credits to be awarded annually for donations to nonprofit organizations that provide scholarships, and $150 million in credits for donations to public school districts.
If the bill became law, it would spur contributions to scholarship organizations such as the BISON Fund, which provides scholarships for more than 1,800 students, many of whom attend Catholic elementary schools across Western New York, according to Malone.
The Diocese of Buffalo figures that the tax credits would substantially increase the number of families who could afford to enroll in Catholic schools.
Other local private schools also are on board with the measure. In addition to the more than 50 Catholic schools represented in the arena at Wednesday's rally, there were two Jewish schools, two Islamic schools, three Christian schools and the nonsectarian Aurora Waldorf School.
In many of the Catholic schools, the field trip was part of a lesson about the legislative process and participation in government, said Carol A. Kostyniak, secretary for Catholic education in the Buffalo diocese.
"Every field trip should be educational. We didn't want it to be just a show-up, rah-rah and go home," said Kostiniak. "We're hoping the schools in the English-language arts classes will follow up with letters to their legislators and to the governor."

In less than two weeks, the $13.8 million land deal for Boeing's future expansion on 267 acres at Charleston International Airport will be signed, sealed and delivered.
The public comment period for the transaction on the Federal Register ended last week with only one submission. It came from the office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management, an arm of the S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control.
The comment was, "No comment," said Paul Campbell, airports director and executive director of the Charleston County Aviation Authority.
Transfer documents will be signed Friday, and the sale will be finalized Dec. 13, he said.
For nearly a year, just about everyone's been saying and reporting that Boeing is buying the airport-owned land. Actually, it's not.
As reported Sunday in The Post and Courier, the land is being sold to Palmetto Railways, a Charleston-based arm of the S.C. Department of Commerce. It in turn will lease the dirt to Boeing.
That's the way it was set up in the $120 million incentive package the state gave the company in April in return for the airplane manufacturer's pledge to bring 2,000 additional jobs and another $1.1 billion investment to the Palmetto State through 2020.
Boeing already employs more than 6,100 people at its 787 Dreamliner campus at Charleston International and its interiors fabrication plant in Palmetto Commerce Park, both in North Charleston.
The land sale will lead to more jobs.
The first new facility on the new property is likely to be a paint facility for the 787. Boeing now sends its completed jets from North Charleston to Texas to be painted. It would make sense to have them painted locally. Boeing South Carolina top executive Jack Jones recently said an announcement will be made "very soon."
And what about the 777X, Boeing's updated wide-body version of its long-haul passenger jet? Will it have a place in North Charleston? That remains to be seen.
Boeing sent out request for proposals Nov. 22 to more than a dozen U.S. sites. Boeing wants to see who has the best bid to land the prized production and the jobs that will come with it for the new rendition of its popular 777 series airplane.
It would be nice to win assembly and wing fabrication in the Palmetto State, but from all accounts, North Charleston is likely to be a long shot.
Though some of the detailed design work and high-tech engineering for the 777X will come to the Lowcountry, it won't be known until after the holidays where the plane's assembly and wing fabrication will set up shop, according to Boeing. Maybe South Carolina will land part of it. The local plant is nonunionized, a major plus in Boeing's eyes.
Boeing probably will take a long, hard look at Long Beach, Calif. That's where the company makes its C-17 Globemaster cargo planes used by the military, but Boeing plans to end production there in 2015, instantly laying off more than 5,000 experienced plane builders. The facilities are in place, the workers are there and it's home to a major port. It does have a union, the United Auto Workers, but it's believed it might be easier to work with than the International Association of Machinists, which rejected an eight-year contract extension last month that would have guaranteed 777X production in Washington state in return for concessions.
And, of course, Washington state, which already has an $8.7 billion tax break for Boeing on the table, is not out of the running by any means.
The company wants to start production of the new jet in 2017 or 2018 and have it in the sky by 2020.
Whatever Boeing decides on the 777X, a lot of new jobs still are headed to North Charleston. As it's been said, Boeing doesn't intend to bank the land that the Commerce Department is buying for the company.

The auctioneer company handling the June 11 American LaFrance auction fielded calls from all over the country and world, including a businessman flying in from Mexico.
The auction also was to be livestreamed online, so bidders could make offers no matter their location.
Cincinnati Industrial Auctioneers handled Berkeley Countys auction of the former firetruck manufacturers business personal property to redeem more than $650,000 owed to taxpayers on a fee-in-lieu-of-tax economic development deal. American LaFrance battled bankruptcy and finally closed in January. About 200 jobs were lost in the county.
With the county unable to connect with anyone at American LaFrance, the county seized American LaFrances assets at two locations and consolidated them into one location at the Patillo building off of Cypress Gardens Road. The county only had claim to the business personal property, which included manufacturing equipment and office desks. It was unclear what would happen to the companys inventory, like the transmissions, red engines and unfinished firetrucks.
The auction begins 9 a.m. Wednesday, June 11, and will likely continue for 10 hours, according to Cincinnati Industrial Auctioneers Managing Partner Jeff Luggen. The auction is open to the public. Those wishing to bid online can do so at bidspotter.com.
Luggen said there will be an auctioneers chant to go through the thousand or so lots. He said Berkeley County is planning on having refreshments on hand.
While the auction will feature a huge amount of factory support equipment, if youre looking to watch a big-ticket item to go at auction, youre out of luck, Luggen said.
At this auction, there really is nothing thats the star of the show, he said.
So whos interested in this type of equipment?
Its all types of manufacturers and business people from all over the country and, heck, even all over the world, Luggen said.

FALLING WATERS - An annual memorial motorcycle ride earlier this month turned tragic, as an accident claimed the life of two participants and sent another to the hospital in critical condition.
Now, friends of Mark D. Stephens, of Falling Waters, are creating a fund to help his family pay for transportation, lodging and other necessities while they visit their father. Stephens is currently being cared for at the University of Maryland R. Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore, Md.
The day started out wonderfully, said Debbie Long, a participant in the ride. The ride has been held annually for 10 years in honor of her brother, Terry Lee Pannuty, who was killed in a motorcycle accident on Route 11 North, near Falling Waters. Long called the group "family."

Mark D. Stephens sits atop his motorcycle. Stephens, of Falling Waters, was injured earlier this month during an annual motorocycle ride to honor his fallen friend, Terry Lee Pannuty, who was killed in a motorcycle crash 10 years ago.
"They grew up together, and (Mark is) always on that ride," Long said of the relationship between the two men.
Stephens has three sons. Two are teenagers, living in Falling Waters. The other is in his mid-20s - a newlywed.
Long said the boys travel frequently to Baltimore and need help financially.
"Who's paying the bills? Who's paying for their home?" Long said.
LaRoue Pannuty, Long's sister-in-law, said Kyle, Stephens' 17-year-old son, is a "trooper," and has been doing a wonderful job taking care of his younger brother. Pannuty, who lives in Severna Park, Md., said she has offered her home to the boys, but Kyle is set to graduate next week and wants to stay in the area until then.
"To go through all that and not have your dad there and not have your brother there ... he's an amazing young man," Pannuty said.
The accident has hit the close-knit group hard. Stephens lost his own son, Mark B. Stephens, and future daughter-in-law, Megan R. Daymude. The young couple had a two-month-old child together and were engaged to be married, said Tina Dean, Long's sister.
"They were riding this in memory of my brother, and here they get hurt and lose their life," Dean said. "My heart just breaks for that family."
Feelings of guilt are being shared throughout their circle, the sisters said. While they know the accident isn't their fault, it has been difficult to come to terms with that fact.
"It just makes you feel bad, because if it wasn't for the memorial ride we were having for my brother, they wouldn't have been there," Dean said.
The families are continuously praying together and for one another, especially for the Stephens family, said Carolyn Hite, sister of Long and Dean. It is hoped that contributions to the fund can help ease some of the burden during this difficult time.
"I'm hoping that people will open their hearts up and try to help this family out in this time of need," Hite said.
The fund has been set up under the name Kyle Stephens. Those who wish to contribute can contact the Falling Waters branch of My Bank First United at 304-267-7935.

Study abroad is an enriching and exciting experience, but changes in culture, food, language, and academic expectations can also be challenging. Those challenges can create or exacerbate both mental stress and physical symptoms. It is crucial to plan ahead to safeguard your health while traveling, and to be prepared for the stresses of adapting to a new situation. All students should be prepared to confront stresses such as jet lag, culture shock, and differences in nutritional and health conditions. If you have special needs (on-going medical condition, counseling, a learning or physical disability), discussing them with your doctor, counselor, or the study abroad advisor, as well as your program provider, is the best way to make sure you are choosing the program that can meet your needs and provide a positive study abroad experience.
Here are some basic tips for preparing for a healthier and less stressful period of study abroad. You can find more detailed and country-specific recommendations through the links at the bottom of this page.
Almost all programs require a physical examination, and many visas do as well. You can have a physical examination free of charge at the Health Center. If you require lab tests, these can be done at the Health Center and billed to your insurance.
Confirm that your routine immunizations are up-to-date when you have your physical exam. A Hepatitis A vaccination is also recommended for all travelers going abroad. You can make an appointment at the Health Center for this vaccination.
If you are traveling anywhere outside Western Europe, you will most likely need additional vaccinations. The Centers for Disease Control, your program provider, and the Health Center can help you figure out what immunizations you need. Diann Lynch, the travel nurse at the Health Center, can also tell you how much your immunizations will cost.
As soon as you apply to a program that will require immunizations, contact Ms. Lynch at the Health Center (315 859-4111) to schedule an appointment. Most immunizations must be completed at least a month prior to travel, and some require several shots over a one-month period. Be sure to make an appointment early enough to complete all your immunizations in a timely fashion! This is also the time to ask about any special medications required for your destination, such as anti-malarial drugs.
If you are unable to utilize the Health Center, you can also call 798-5747 for an appointment at the Oneida County Health Travel Clinic located in Utica, or use the Travel Health Clinic Locator to find a clinic near your home.
All your required immunizations should be recorded in your "yellow book," and you should carry that document with you.
Plan ahead and complete any medical checkups that would be scheduled while you are away. This includes dental, vision, and gynecological examinations. Be sure to obtain a copy of any important records (blood type, continuing prescriptions, vision prescriptions, x-rays) you might need for medical care abroad, and carry them with you. Also carry contact information such as phone and fax numbers for your health care providers at home.
Consult your insurance agent to make sure that you have appropriate medical insurance and any other travel insurance you wish to purchase. Be sure that you have coverage for medical evacuation, in the rare case that you would have to be flown back to the U.S. (or to a different country) for medical treatment. Also, check to make sure that your policy covers any continuing treatment you may need for newly acquired medical conditions after you return home.
You may wish to carry a small kit with bandages, antibiotic cream, aspirin or other non-prescription pain reliever, anti-diarrheal medicine, sun screen, insect repellent, and antihistamines.
Take a back up pair of glasses and/or contact lenses! You should also carry a written prescription for the lenses. In many countries, contact lens solutions will be quite expensive if available, and you may not be able to find the type you need. Carry extra with you.

CHICAGO — Republican U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk says he doesn't agree with proposals in Illinois to impose term limits on elected officials.
Republican governor candidate Bruce Rauner is pushing a voter initiative to limit state lawmakers. This week, the Republican leaders of the Illinois House and Senate backed an amendment to the state's constitution that'll limit statewide officers to two terms. The officers include the governor and comptroller.
Kirk told reporters in Chicago this week that if voters want legislators out of office, they should vote against them.
Kirk says he still supports Rauner's gubernatorial run.
Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn pushed for term limits earlier in his political career, but late last year wouldn't commit to a term limit for himself. He said this week he supports limits for statewide officers.

In November 1995, Ray Lampley, Cecilia Lampley, and John Baird began
construction of a bomb with the help of the bomb-making manual entitled
"Homemade C-4." When the FBI arrested the conspirators, law
enforcement agents recovered the bomb-making manuals Anarchist's Cookbook
and Homemade Weapons, in addition to the "Homemade C-4"
text, from the Lampley residence.
Many of these bomb-making instructions are available online. Numerous
pages devoted to terror manuals are currently present on the Web, and
explosives enthusiasts regularly post information at USENET newsgroups.
Additionally, some white supremacist pages sites, such as Death 2
ZOG (Zionist Occupation Government), have posted bomb-making instructions.
Covered with Nazi and World Church of the Creator symbols, this site urges
its readers to "Kill the jew [sic] pig before it's too late"
and proclaims its support for "black on black violence." Death
2 ZOG contains downloadable copies of bomb-making manuals such as
"Jolly Roger Cookbook," "The Big Book of Mischief"
and "Anarchy Cookbook."
William Powell's legendary Anarchist's Cookbook, first published
in 1971, has inspired many Web pages. Though Powell's book has not been
available on the Web in its entirety, a number of Web pages contain works
named after it, such as "The Anarchist Cookbook IV," otherwise
known as the BHU Pyrotechnics Cookbook. Explosive-related sections of
this document, which is widely available on the Web, include "Making
Plastic Explosives," "Napalm" and "Revised Pipe Bombs
Many versions of another popular online manual, the Terrorist's Handbook,
include a disclaimer that warns, "don't try anything you find in
this document!!! Many of the instructions doesn't [sic] even work."
Yet these directions are posted nonetheless, instructing readers how to
construct "High Order Explosives" such as "Ammonium Nitrate,"
"Dynamite," and "TNT" as well as "Molotov Cocktails,"
"Phone Bombs," and other destructive devices. Significantly,
this Handbook also includes a "Checklist for Raids on Labs,"
concluding that "in the end, the serious terrorist would probably
realize that if he/she wishes to make a truly useful explosive, he or
she will have to steal the chemicals to make the explosive from a lab."
According to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, Federal agents
investigating at least 30 bombings and four attempted bombings between
1985 and June 1996 recovered bomb-making literature that the suspects
had obtained from the Internet.76 In these investigations,
the possession of bomb-making literature has been taken by law enforcement
authorities as strong circumstantial evidence that this literature has
been used to plan crimes.
Like other extremist material on the Internet, bomb-making manuals are
readily accessible to children. In fact, these tracts have already been
accessed by eager, impressionable youngsters. The Washington Post
has described discussions among 14-year-olds about "which propellants
are best to use, which Web sites have the best recipes and whether tin
or aluminum soda cans make better bomb casings."77 Furthermore,
children have used recipes found on the Web to create and detonate bombs.
For example, two 15-year-old boys from Orem, Utah, landed in a juvenile-detention
center after they constructed a pipe bomb using online instructions. Similarly,
three high school students in Ogden, Utah, who ignited a bomb at a Jehovah's
Witnesses church later told police they learned how to make the device
from a Web page devoted to the Anarchists Cookbook.78

to which its Dissemination is Controlled by Federal Law, and the Extent to which such
Dissemination May be Subject to Regulation consistent with the First Amendment to the
United States Constitution," prepared by the United States Department of Justice,
submitted to Congress April 1997

Water heater leaks are usually quite obvious and you will discover substantial amounts of water on the floor around your heater. Normally, the first sign of a heater problem is water dripping from the bottom of the jacket. This indicates that the tank has corroded through. The cure may be installation of a new heater, or you may be able to repair the leak.
Water Heater Leaking from the Bottom?
Before turning off water to water heater try to locate the source of the leak (it may not be the water heater leaking).
To attempt to locate the source of the leak first check the top of the water heater. If the top of the water heater is wet, check the water lines leading from the wall to the top of the water heater. There will be two water lines. The line on the left is the hot water line. The line on the right is the cold water line.
If water is leaking from hot or cold water lines your water heater should be okay. If the water heater is dry on the top, check the hose bib (place where hose can be hooked up) at the bottom side of water heater. If the hose bib is dry the water heater needs replaced. Before turning water off to a gas water heater. TURN OFF THE GAS.
To turn off the gas. On left of water heater (usually on left) is a flexible gas supply. Follow the gas supply back to gas shut off. Turn the lever on the gas shut off 1/4 turn. The gas is now off.
Before turning off the water to an electric water heater you must turn off the circuit breaker to water heater.
To turn off the water to the water heater, locate the cold water line at the top right of the water heater. Follow the cold water line from the water heater toward the wall. There should be a gate valve on that line. Turn the handle on the gate valve clockwise until it stops.
If the gate valve is stuck open or there isn't one, the entire water system to the house will need to be shut off. To shut off the entire water system check for the gate valve at front of house. The gate valve has a round handle. Turn the handle clockwise until it stops. If gate valve is stuck or there isn't one you will need to shut off the water at the water meter.
The next step is to drain the water heater. You will need a garden hose and adjustable pliers. At the bottom front of the water heater there is a hose bib (a place to hook up garden hose). Stretch the garden hose out making sure there are no kinks in it. Screw the garden hose on to the hose bib. The garden hose must be lower than the hose bib to function properly. To open the hose bib. Turn the handle (if there is one) counter clockwise until it stops. This will be a few turns. If your hose bib does not have a handle and is a round plastic fixture. Grab the fixture and turn it counter-clockwise a few turns. There will not be much water draining through the garden hose if any.
You will need to displace the water with air. To do this, find the closest fixture (kitchen sink faucet, bathroom sink faucet, or tub/shower faucet). Open the hot side only. This will allow air into the water heater and cause it to drain.
If the water heater does not start draining, close the faucet at whatever sink you turned on. Turn the water back on to the water heater (the valve above the water heater). Be sure to turn it all the way on, you need the pressure. Now water should be draining from the garden hose rapidly. What you are doing is clearing the hose bib of sediment so it will drain. Continue to drain in this fashion for a few minutes. Shut the water off at the water heater and open whichever hot water you opened earlier. The water heater should be draining .It may be slow, just let it drain.
Water Heater Will Not Drain?
You must wear goggles, thick gloves, and protective clothing while doing this repair!
Tools you will need:
Screw the hose adapter onto the galvanized nipple and have the bucket ready to catch any water that starts running out of the water heater.
If after following the instructions outlined above and the water heater does not drain, close the hot water faucet you opened earlier. Remove the garden hose from the hose bib. Carefully remove the hose bib from the water heater.
There are several different types of hose bibs on water heaters. If your water heater has a round plastic hose bib. Turn the hose bib counter clockwise until it comes off. You may have to pull on the hose bib to get to get it out. Be careful. There is going to be hot water in the water heater. Water will be slowly running out of the water heater into the bucket. After removing the round plastic hose bib, there will be a pipe nipple still in the water heater. Using your pipe wrench. Remove the nipple by turning it counter-clockwise.
As soon as you remove the pipe nipple from the water heater, replace it with the nipple you have put the hose adapter on. Attach the hose to the adapter and open the hot side of the closest faucet and let it drain.
If your water heater has a hose bib that has a knob on top. Just remove the hose bib with your pipe wrench and replace with the galvanized nipple with adapter. Follow instructions outlined above.
