Stetson Athletics invites Hatters fans to watch the NCAA Tournament selection show with the 2012-13 Atlantic Sun Conference Women's Basketball Champions Monday night at Bill and Frank's Brickhouse Grill, 142 North Woodland Boulevard in DeLand. The show will air at 7 p.m. on ESPN.
The team will gather at approximately 6:15 at the restaurant and then settle in to wait for the announcement of who they will play and where they will go in the NCAA Tournament. First round games will be either Saturday, March 23 or Sunday, March 24.
This will be Stetson's third NCAA Tournament appearance in program history; the Hatters traveled to Knoxville, Tenn. in the each of their two previous trips. In 2005, the 16th-seeded Hatters fell to #1 LSU 70-36, and in 2011, the 16th-seeded Hatters fell to #1 Tennessee 99-34.
In 2012-13, Stetson (24-8) won a school record 24 games overall and a school-record 14 conference games during the season. In the A-Sun tournament, Stetson defeated ETSU 66-55 in the quarterfinals, knocked off Mercer 67-52 in the semifinals, then rallied from a 15-point second-half deficit to shock top-seed FGCU 70-64 and capture the A-Sun crown.

A man and woman were shot in the entrance of a convenience store tonight on the East Side.
The shooting occurred about 6:45 p.m. at the Broadway Convenience Deli at Broadway and Mohr Street.
Both victims were taken to Erie County Medical Center, one of them with serious injuries, Buffalo police said, adding that neither victim appeared to have suffered life-threatening injuries.
The shooting started after a conflict at the store entrance, not a robbery attempt, police said.
Both people shot fell into the store, a police spokesman said.
An unmarked patrol car was involved in a minor traffic accident rushing to the scene of the Broadway shootings, police said. No injuries were reported, though the patrol car and other vehicle sustained minor damage in what was described as a two-car fender-bender.
At mid-evening, a dozen patrol cars were parked and police tape was stripped outside the deli, which is sandwiched between two vacant storefronts in a neighborhood flanked by Bailey and Fillmore avenues. A large dog barked outside as police interviewed a convenience store clerk.
"This is the worse section of Buffalo," said Bill Ferro, a neighborhood resident. "They should put cameras on every street corner from Young Street to Miller Street along Broadway."
An elderly man who would not give his name, and who lives near the shooting scene, told The Buffalo News, "Every day, drug sales, all in this area."
Ferro also said he also would like to see more police foot and bike patrols in the neighborhood.

The computer search for information that is published in scientific journals is a progressive although still unrefined method. More advantage should be taken of the enormous storage and sorting capacity of modern computers in order to utilize fully the great number of widely spread scientific publications on specific topics. Since title, author, and reference do not provide sufficient information about content and value of a publication, key words are needed for competent identification of such papers. However, to select efficiently the correct key words not only needs experience in the use of such words but also requires knowledge in the field of the topic published. Thus, the author should propose key words for his publication but the editorial board of the journal must carefully edit this information.

EAST LIVERPOOL - The resignation of 2nd Ward Councilman Ryan Stovall will become effective today after a resignation letter was sent to the county Board of Elections Friday.
In his letter, Stovall said that, after renting a home the last few years in the 2nd Ward, he and his wife recently purchased a home on Orchard Grove to "make a permanent investment in the city."
The Orchard Grove home is located in the 3rd Ward, represented by Councilman Tom Cunningham, necessitating Stovall's resignation from the 2nd Ward.
"I hope to stay involved in city government and wish to return to an elected position should the opportunity arise," Stovall advised in his letter, which was released to the media Tuesday.
Stovall is a police officer for St. Clair Township Police Department and formerly was a patrolman for the city department. He is currently serving his third term as a council member, with one year remaining on his current term.
According to elections board Director Adam Booth, the Central Committee in East Liverpool, composed of 2nd Ward precinct committeemen, will be responsible for choosing a replacement for Stovall.
The committee can begin that process five days after his resignation and must make a selection within 45 days or the choice will become the mayor's.
He said nothing in the law requires that the committee accept applications from interested parties.
However, Denny Johnson, chairman of the county Democratic Party, said those interested should express their interest to him or city council members. In the near future, a meeting of the committee will be called at which a selection will be made.
The person chosen will fulfill the remainder of Stovall's term.

The fourth server released in the popular 2D sidescrolling mmorpg Maplestory. Windia was the first server which did not have a letter as its logo, instead having a white wing. This in part attributes to why Windia, although the fourth server released, has the second highest population. Like other servers with a high population, Windia has issues with scamming and KSing. Windians like to think that they're better than everyone else, but in reality Windia is inferior to Scania in every way imaginable.
Scania dominated Windia in the Maple Madness event because Scania is a better server.

Changes to hotel tax advocated
January 31, 2013
Lycoming County's hotel tax should be increased while the money it generates and the people who administer it should be held more accountable, according to state Rep....
Yet again look at the beloved legislator that instantly suggests raising taxes to band-aid every problem......
And the same people who re-elect him year after year get in an uproar when the city suggests raising taxes.
Absolutely laughable!

Anyway, what were the salaries of these people before the bed tax was implemented? I doubt it wasn't near $200,000.

Dana Coleman is a three-sport athlete from a talented family.
The Fort Dorchester rising-junior was an offensive guard for the Patriot football team last season and earned varsity letters for wrestling and track and field. His best event this spring was the shot put and his top mark in a meet is 40-feet, 5-inches.
As a freshman, Coleman played for the Fort Dorchester B-team and JV football squads. He moved up to the varsity team last summer but had to battle for playing time due to the Patriots returning four starters on the line. He did see some action up front as well as on the kick return and punt teams. Im proud of how I was able to work my way up and get that first varsity letter, he said.
Coleman, who is a cousin of Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Roddy White, hopes to make a big impact with the Patriots in the fall.
Right now Im just working to improve and get recognized so I can play more and get to that next level, he said. I would like to play in college so I know I need to work really had and always challenge myself.
I think a lot of people underestimate me.
When he was younger he played soccer. A versatile athlete, he moved around between the forward, striker and goalkeeper positions. High school soccer and track and field are both spring sports so after middle school he decided to focus on track.
Coleman hasnt decided on a college major, but says he has an interest in engineering.

LEWISTON — The play that encapsules Antoine Mason's evolution from shooter to scorer occurred with 7:10 remaining in Niagara's 68-58 victory over Vermont on Sunday afternoon at the Gallagher Center.
T.J. Cline had just snared a rebound and kicked the ball to Mason on the perimeter. He eyed a shot, then thought better of it. Niagara was leading by nine. It was in the Purple Eagles' best interests to take some time off the clock.
As Niagara (5-6) ran its offense, Mason made his way to the far corner of the court. When the ball again found him he was open. This time he fired, draining a three and drawing a foul from Candon Rusin that resulted in a four-point play.
The chances Mason would have made a comparable decision last year and sacrificed a shot for the betterment of the team based on the game situation? Not very good.
Mason's across-the-board numbers speak to the maturation process that's taken place. The son of former NBA forward Anthony Mason is shooting less and scoring more. He's utilizing his strength to penetrate instead of taking the easy way out from behind the arc. And his free-throw shooting, a detriment during his redshirt freshman season of a year ago, has turned exemplary. He's over 83 percent and had a string of 22 snapped when he rimmed one out in the final seconds.
Mason went 7 of 12 from the field and 9 of 10 from the line in scoring a game-high 25 points – 19 in the second half – and leading Niagara to its first winning streak of the season. Sophomore point guard Juan'ya Green added 17.
" 'Mace' has been very, very efficient," Niagara coach Joe Mihalich said. "You want your scorers to be aggressive. ... At the same time, you want to make good plays. 'Mace' has been incredibly efficient and he's showing us all, he scores points all kinds of ways. He gets to the foul line for a few, hits a driving layup, knocks a three down here and there, pulls up for jump shots. So there's a lot of ways to get on the board and he did it today."
Mason, a 6-foot-3 guard, shot 38 percent from the field last year and 64.8 percent from the line. Sunday marked the sixth time in the last eight games he's cashed at least 50 percent of his shots from the field. He's up to 49.2 percent on the season, and only 35 guards in the nation are shooting better than 50 percent.
"In the summer working out with my dad we actually sat down, watched some tape of me from previous years and just looked at what was positive and what was negative," Mason said. "I'm just working on that."
Niagara never led by less than eight after Mason's heady four-point play with 7:10 remaining extended the lead to 50-37.
"I think that speaks to having a good feel for the game, knowing that at that time the clock's more important than the shot there, we're going to get that shot down the road," Mihalich said. "That's what the good players do. They make good decisions."
Vermont (6-4), the defending America East champ, looked like it would carve Niagara apart on the inside during the early going. Luke Apfeld (6-7) scored in the paint and Ethan O'Day (6-9) produced a conventional three-point play in the paint and the Catamounts led, 5-2, less than two minutes in. They wouldn't score again for almost eight minutes and the Purple Eagles, despite shooting a miserable 25 percent from the field, hit the locker room with a 19-18 lead.
While Niagara made good on just 7-of-28 shots, the Catamounts went 7 for 19 and turned it over 11 times. Niagara's active and extended matchup zone/man-to-man hybrid changed the game's feel and limited Vermont's ability to work to its interior size advantage. All told, the Catamounts committed 19 turnovers.
"We're becoming defensive stalwarts, right? Gee whiz. Man. Golly," Mihalich said.
"This win right here is one of those wins we won't get enough credit for. It's a good, good win against a very solid team. It's one of those teams, they make you play their way, and it's not the way we like to play. So we played their way and we beat them playing their way. Our defense was terrific."

If you are a fan of golf, you already know the story. Hunter Mahan was leading the Canadian Open by two strokes as he warmed up on the range before the start of the third round. A cell phone was handed to Mahan and after a brief chat, he withdrew from the tournament.
Let's set the stage here. The phone call was from his wife, or at least someone who knew about her situation. Mrs. Mahan was in labor, with the birth of the couples' first child seemingly imminent. Without hesitation Mahan left the course to be with his wife - the tournament be darned. Another fact that should be mentioned is the prize money for the winner. Had Mahan stuck around and won the tournament he would have received more than $1 million!
The sports talk shows were all filled with two thoughts. One was that Hunter Mahan has to be considered the model husband to leave all that possible loot on the table to be with his wife. The other thought was wondering how many of us male golf fanatics would have done the same thing.
We'll deal with the second thought first. Most people who do not play golf do not understand the addiction the game has on those of us who do play. We play in all kinds of weather and miss many important events to do so. I can safely say that I have played the game on occasion when my wife would have preferred that I be doing something else. Not often mind you, but a few times for sure.
I have missed out on honey-do lists, family reunions, kid's school activities and other assorted events to chase that little white ball around. Though I did show up for the birth of my children (in the middle of golf season, I might add), there were times when I probably should not have played golf. I have felt guilty about it and usually try to make it up to her.
Here, though, we have two important distinctions. First of all we are talking about the birth of your first child. Would it be different if it was the second or third child? The fact is a woman wants her husband by her side when she gives birth for any child, though the first time around would be a bit more daunting. It may not seem like it at the time, depending on the difficulty of her labor, but she really does want you there. Likewise, the husband wants to be at the birth of his children. Nearly every golfer I know would leave the course for the birth of a child.
The other distinction is the amount of money on the line. Again, most of the golfers I know play for about five bucks or less. Would we leave the course if a million smackers were on the line? Many wouldn't, and nearly as many wives would suggest that she could get along just fine without you. Just show me the money afterward!
The thing that caught my attention was a sportscaster calling Hunter Mahan the husband of the year. Is that because he walked away at a chance for a million dollars? Get serious. A million to Hunter Mahan is the equivalent to the $5 bet for one of us. Mahan has made more than $25 million playing golf. The loss of a potential another million is not that big of deal for him - and, yes, I did write that with a straight face!
Was the title bestowed because he left to be with his wife where many others would not have done so? All professionals would have done the same thing and nearly all of us duffers would have also. I think the moniker is a bit too much personally, but I am going to leave it up to you.
Do you think Hunter Mahan deserves to be the husband of the year? Before you decide, you should read the following story about a golfer who would do anything for his wife. Let's take a look.
Several men are in the locker room of a golf club. A cellular phone on a bench rings and the man sitting beside it engages the hands free speaker function and begins to talk. Everyone else in the room stops to listen.
Man: "Hello."
Woman: "Hi, honey, it's me. Are you at the club?"
Man: "Yes."
Woman: "I'm at the shops now and found this beautiful leather coat. It's only $2,000; is it OK if I buy it?"
Man: "Sure, go ahead if you like it that much."
Woman: "I also stopped by the Lexus dealership and saw the models. I saw one I really liked."
Man: "How much?"
Woman: "$90,000."
Man: "OK, but at that price I want it with all the options."
Woman: "Great! Oh, and one more thing I was just talking to Janie and found out that the house I wanted last year is back on the market. They're asking $980,000 for it."
Man: "Well, then go ahead and make an offer of $900,000. They'll probably take it. If not, we can go the extra $80,000 if it's what you really want."
Woman: "OK, I'll see you later! I love you so much!"
Man: "Bye. I love you, too."
The man hangs up. The other men are staring at him in astonishment, mouths wide open.
He turns and asks, "Anyone know whose phone this is?"
Title (husband of the year, not winner of the Canadian Open) or not, congratulations to Hunter and Kandi Mahan on the birth of daughter, Zoe!

PITTSBURGH - It's that time again, when credit cards smolder from overuse, and the precious little ones fall asleep dreaming of $100 gift cards and phone plans with unlimited texting.
Traditions endure. That includes the annual holiday songs, twisted to salute Pittsburgh sports. Aunt Veronica has made nut rolls, so have one of the many cousins Anthony tune up the kazoo, and gather everyone 'round the fake fireplace for a holiday sing-along.
Jingle Bells
On orders from Art Rooney II, the Steelers changed offensive coordinators with the idea of running more and throwing more short passes. Reviews are mixed, although the quarterback seems to have voted thumbs down.
(To the tune of "Jingle Bells")
Dink and dunk, dink and dunk,
Try to move the chains.
Don't throw deep, don't take the risk,
Embrace the 3-yard gains.
Dink and dunk, dink and dunk,
Always play it safe.
Never mind the angry look
When Big Ben starts to chafe.
Inching down the field,
Three yards at a time.
Waste a quarterback
Playing in his prime.
The system is the thing,
Doesn't make much sense.
The owner called the shot;
He thinks he knows offense.
Oh, dink and dunk, dink and dunk,
No need to throw it long.
Maybe it will work out,
But it all just seems so wrong.
Dink and dunk, dink and dunk,
That's the brand new way.
It surely was a lot more fun
When players could make plays.
That time of year!
For the second straight season, the Pirates fell apart over the last two months and turned a year of great promise into bitter disappointment. This one fits for those hot days in August when hope is melting away.
(To the tune of "The Most Wonderful Time of the Year")
It's the most frustrating time of the year.
When pitchers start failing,
And hitters are flailing,
While fans start to cry in their beer.
It's the most frustrating time of the year.
It's one more lost year for this bunch.
With the strikeouts and errors,
They're just four-month terrors.
Who fold in the crunch.
It's the sorriest finish you'll see.
They just fade away
Oh, it's day after day.
And as maddening as can be.
It's the most frustrating time, you'll agree.
Tough for Pens fans
With unprecedented gains in revenue, the NHL decided to lock out the players to gain further financial concessions. They now risk losing another entire season.
(To the tune of "Jingle Bell Rock")
Lock 'em out, Lock 'em out, lock them all out.
Saving some cash,
Is what this is about.
We'll open up,
But we'll decide when.
They can get jobs
And wait until then.
Lock 'em out, lock 'em out, do it again.
Cancel the games
In bundles of 10.
Keep the doors locked
Until they cave in.
We just have to win.
What a bad plan,
It's the grand plan
To chase the fans away.
Power play time,
It's a real crime.
To shut it down so no one plays.

OP wins CBA Albany hockey tourney
A little holiday getaway enabled the Orchard Park hockey team to end 2012 with a bang.
The Quakers defeated Ithaca, 4-1, on Sunday to capture the championship of the CBA Albany Brothers Tournament. The win over the Little Red followed Saturday's 5-2 triumph over host Christian Brothers Academy, which entered the tournament with just two losses.
Tournament MVP Ryan Cox had two assists Sunday for OP and finished the event with four points. T.J. Maloney, Tristan Lukowski, John Januszkiewicz and Ryan Maccarrick scored for Orchard Park (4-3), which limited Ithaca — winner of five state championships and 10 Section III titles — to just nine shots.
"We've been playing better every game and that's our goal," Quakers coach Derek Gilham said. "We had a chance to get away. To beat the host team and then to beat a team in Ithaca which only had one loss is a good step for us."
OP plays Ken West at 2 p.m. Tuesday at Holiday.
In a nonleague game between large- and small-school members of the WNY Federation, defending large school champion Niagara-Wheatfield beat Grand Island, 6-3, as Justin Durkee scored twice.

Is there anybody that will take an order and get me on the list? I'm not paying GB's $800 price tag. Thanks!

I would think any FFL worth his salt could place an order for you, and get it as it becomes available. How long you might have to wait is another matter.
$800? Wow. :rolleyes: I thought the guy a couple of months ago asking $599 for his (he had two) was high. This was at a local gun show but an out-of-area dealer.
January 24, 2013, 02:46 PM
2 stores yesterday said they weren't accepting any more orders for a bit. Not 1, but 2 stores in the Nashville area. Perhaps they are misinformed. Sounds like Smith is covered up overloaded.
January 24, 2013, 03:33 PM
It's allocated. Find a local FFL and have him order you one from Davidsons:
He can give you a good deal if he's willing(no markup).
January 24, 2013, 10:01 PM
HOw does that Gallery of guns work?
January 24, 2013, 11:01 PM
Post over on the smith and wesson forum, they might be able to point you to a shop with one in stock.
January 24, 2013, 11:08 PM
I think allocated means the next batch is already spoken for at Davidsons doesn't it.
If you feel the need to contribute to the panic and buy one right now, then you'll probably be paying the price.
January 25, 2013, 12:58 AM
HOw does that Gallery of guns work?
On most guns(ones in stock); you just click buy and it shows you a list of your local dealers and their prices.
January 25, 2013, 01:22 AM
My dealer, who moves alot of guns, has a three month wait on the Shield.
January 25, 2013, 02:03 AM
Looked at second-hand one in excellent condition for $419. It was worth the asking price.
I passed on it because I have five shot 9mm revolver.
January 25, 2013, 02:06 AM
Is there anybody that will take an order and get me on the list? I'm not paying GB's $800 price tag. Thanks!
I'm glad you're not willing to pay $800 for one. Only stupid person would pay that price.
January 25, 2013, 05:59 PM
After all the people quite being crazy I think you will be able to buy a new Shield for $400. There will be a lot of guns for sale when the crazy people start needing money. I will help them out. :D Don
January 27, 2013, 11:03 PM
Demand for the Shield was pretty crazy before the latest craziness.
January 28, 2013, 09:09 PM
I bought a 40 shield last spring and it has become my primary ccw. I haven't seen any in the stores, new or used, since. My Dad got on a waiting list in MA and it took a few months to get one last summer. The MA trigger is awful.

January 28, 2013, 09:42 PM
Shields must be pretty hard to get elsewhere. One of my local stores had one in .40 for a couple of days before selling, another had one in 9mm and it also took 2 days. The price on both was under $400.00 each. These are nice guns, just not worth a huge premium.
January 29, 2013, 05:19 AM
Under $400 is a great price. I'm surprised they even last a day at any price under retail.
January 29, 2013, 08:23 AM
Under $400? Hmmmm
January 30, 2013, 10:51 PM
I've got a buddy who reps Smith. He claims Smith has the capacity to produce 30-40 Shields a day. They have 40,000 on order.:eek:
Ragnar Danneskjold
January 30, 2013, 11:31 PM
What on earth is wrong with S&W? Why release the gun at all if they can't actually produce them? Are they in the business of selling guns or not?
January 30, 2013, 11:43 PM
Last fall my LGS had a S&W day and they had 200 shields for sale that day for $399/ea.
March 23, 2013, 01:02 AM
I've got a buddy who reps Smith. He claims Smith has the capacity to produce 30-40 Shields a day. They have 40,000 on order.:eek:
I don't believe that number for a second. They probably build 300-400 a day.

LAPORTE - A discharge into Loyalsock Creek spotted Friday has been identified as mud, clay and sediment from natural gas operations, according to the state Department of Environmental Protection.
Vacationers from the Baltimore, Md. area contacted the Sun-Gazette Saturday seeking answers why they found sludge and a green, opaque color in the creek.
John Erich, state Department of Environmental Protection emergency response manager from its northcentral office in Williamsport, said the release happened around noon Friday near the Laporte and Cherry Township border when crews were making an "open trench cut across the stream."
Article Photos
Erich said natural gas transmission lines are being constructed there for the Marc 1 pipeline project. Inergy Midstream L.P. was identified as the company doing the work.
Inergy is in the process of building a 39-mile, 30-inch gas pipeline interconnect there, according to its website.
Erich said the company's "best practice management failed" causing the release of a "significant amount" of mud, clay and sediment into the creek.
He said DEP was on scene after the incident and provided assistance to the company after the discharge was stopped.
There was no danger to the public or environment because of the release, Erich said.
"It's just mud from where they dug from the stream," he said.
A representative at Worlds End State Park said no advisories were issued swimmers or campers at the park.

Football Coach Pete Lembo Helps with Student Rewards
Ball State head football coach Pete Lembo and the athletics department participated in two immersive learning projects to focus on how to increase student attendance at the Cardinals football games. As a part of the new Student Rewards Program, Ball State students who amassed over 250 points earned a dinner with Lembo at Scheumann Stadium.
Ball State students Blake Beemer, Evan Mudroncik and Keenan Pfotenhauer were the first students to earn the reward and were able to bring three of their friends to the Fisher Football Complex. The students enjoyed dinner and conversation with Lembo, followed by a tour of the locker room, training room and strength and conditioning center.
"I absolutely had a blast," Mudroncik says. "Coach Lembo was a terrific host and I would do it again and again if both he and the athletic administration would allow. It was pretty cool to see the facilities the football team has and go inside the operations and day-to-day work that the coaching staff goes through."
The Student Rewards Program was designed in part to help create a connection between the coaching staff and students, while encouraging students to attend all the athletic events over the course of the school year.
"First, thank you for the opportunity," Beemer says. "Coach Lembo was quite a host for us and he was personable. It was cool to see his passion and energy for Ball State. Perhaps the best part was how he went out of his way to not only say good bye to any of his players leaving the complex, but he took the time to learn his guests majors and interests. He followed up throughout the night discussing these majors and interests. He is definitely a class act, and I am blessed to have had the opportunity to share a meal with him."
The rewards program is new for the 2012-2013 season and rewards Ball State students who swipe in at any ticketed athletic event -- men's or women's basketball, football and women's volleyball. Women's events are worth 10 points and men's events are worth five points.
"Coach Lembo is very knowledgeable," Pfotenhauer says. "I feel like I now know a lot more about college football after spending time with him. He was very willing to answer our questions. I loved his vision for where the team is now and where it is headed."
There are also opportunities throughout the year to attend non-ticketed sports for bonus points. Prize levels, events, and program rules can be found at: www.ballstatesports.com/studentrewards.

Background Information
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
defines brownfields, as real property, the expansion, redevelopment,
or reuse of which may be complicated by the presence or potential presence
of a hazardous substance, pollutant, or contaminant. The concept of the
Baton Rouge Brownfields Program began in 1992 with the adoption of the
Horizon Plan, the City Parish comprehensive plan. In October 2000, the
City Parish was awarded a $200,000 EPA Brownfields Assessment Demonstration
Pilot Grant. Since this initial funding, the Baton Rouge Brownfields
Program has acquired over $500,000 in grant funding for the redevelopment of
eligible sites in East Baton Rouge Parish.
The goal of the Baton Rouge Brownfields Program is to foster the
redevelopment of brownfields in Baton Rouge, thereby generating a positive
force for the redevelopment abandoned commercial and industrial properties.
Is My Site Eligible?
A site is eligible if it is located within East
Baton Rouge Parish, if the property is abandoned or underutilized, and has
real or perceived environmental contamination. Perception of even a
minor environmental issue is generally sufficient.
Why Would I Want My Site Included In The
Brownfields Program?
Funding is available to pay for
environmental assessments, risk assessments, preparation for clean-ups and
redevelopment planning.
Potential access to municipal incentives
for development.
Potential access to assistance with
development permitting and approvals.
Promote the reuse of idle land.
Current Incentives
Eligible sites will receive waivers of
most planning and zoning fees.
Eligible sites will receive special tax
incentives only available for brownfields.
Eligible sites will receive a letter that
may be used to satisfy lender or investment concerns.
Eligible sites will receive special
discounts from Baton Rouge Green for landscaping.
More incentives are being created every
day, please call the City Parish Planning Commission for a current list of
How Can I Get Involved?

The baby was delivered in London's Portland Hospital.
"I am much more self-confident today," Schiffer said in an interview with Welt am Sonntag shortly before giving birth, "because of my children and my husband. I know what I am doing, what I want [and] I am in control of myself."

10 Brilliant Comedy Gems Hiding on YouTube
#5. 85-Year-Old Organ Player Puts His Mark on a Wedding
What the hell is it about bad instrument playing that makes me laugh so hard? It isn't just me, is it? Surely there are other people out there who lose it when they hear something like this 85-year-old man just absolutely mangling the end of a wedding. Because as of right now, only 45,000 people have seen that, and I feel like this is one of those things that's right up the Internet's alley. Not just because of the bad organ player, but because it takes place during the most serious, sacred occasion, and that is the perfect recipe for comedy.
Rebecca Black didn't get famous because she made a bad song. She got famous for singing a bad song in that saccharine sweet, innocent setting while making a serious, legitimate attempt to do something that she thought was great. It's the same with that organ player. Listen to him trying so hard to get it right. That four-second pause that starts around 38 seconds in is one of the funniest things I've ever heard, because you can just picture him trying to get his hands in the right spot. I like to imagine him with his tongue slightly poking out of the corner of his mouth, like a little kid learning it for the first time. How those people walked out of that church without completely losing it is beyond me. They have hearts of pure obsidian.
#4. X-Men Insanity
I'll be the first to admit that I'm extremely hard on entertainment -- especially comedy. I don't mean to be. I've just been around the block enough times to see all the little writing tricks and bullshit twists coming long before they ever get here. For that reason, it's really hard for me to finish anything on YouTube that's more than just a couple of minutes long. But something magical happens when you take pieces of a show out of context and just splice them together into one massive 10-minute chain of non sequitur idiocy. That's what this is.
It has everything I ever want in a video made by a non-professional. Surreal exchanges. Unexplained one-liners. Weird timing. Completely stupid action. It's just perfect. From the 23-second mark, where a guy gets tackled out of nowhere, to the scene at 34 seconds where Wolverine uses his claw to cut off a turkey leg and casually walks away, takes a bite, and says nothing but "... turkey." Watch that whole thing. If you can make it through that whole video without finding at least one thing to laugh at while thinking, "What the fuck?!" you're a cold, unfeeling monster.
#3. Stripping the Anger from Rage Against the Machine
That's a video from a guy named Andy Rehfeldt who decided that Rage Against the Machine needed a softer touch. A smooth 1970s elevator jazzy feel. And what he ended up with was one of the funniest remakes I've ever heard. While the guitar has the same style and tone as John Mayer's early albums, he kept Zack de la Rocha's voice exactly the same. When you combine that with tens of thousands of jumping fans and the "Look how hard I'm about to rock" stances of the band, what you get is pure, unbridled genius.
And it turns out that switching styles when you have the talent to pull it off (which obviously Andy does) makes any song instantly awesome. Here's Drake singing "Best I Ever Had." In the style of polka-jazz:
#2. Jean-Luc Picard Doesn't Give a Fuck
Just like the how-to videos from earlier, this is a channel you could waste your entire day watching and rewatching. The above video is one of my favorites, where Jean-Luc Picard casually practices playing the recorder while the entire ship is being torn apart in a massive battle with the Borg. People keep trying to give him updates and get instructions, which is visibly annoying him. Ships are blowing up and people are dying while he tries so hard to learn that song. And it's so bad ... which I guess is another reason it's impossible for me to not like it.
The edits, for the most part, are flawless. Except for the ones that are supposed to be horrible. And if you have the time, they have a shitload of these. Unfortunately, the last one was uploaded three years ago. I can only hope that the reason they (Jan Van Den Hemel and Andrew Hussie) stopped was because they became super famous and died from all the sex and money that was thrown at them.
#1. Little Kid Plays the SHIT Out of a Xylophone
I don't know if that's a boy or a girl, because it's a tiny human with a bowl haircut and a uniform. So I'm just calling the kid Turbo Xylofucker. What you're seeing is a recital that is what you'd expect in pretty much every respect from little kids. Bad, out-of-tune music, barely keeping beat. But that one kid is worth every second of that video. It's not just the way Turbo beats the shit out of that xylophone (yes, I'm aware there is another name for the miniature version, but I don't even remotely care enough to look it up), but the intensity in which that beatdown takes place. Look at that face when (s)he rakes those sticks across that fucker:
If you had the sound off, you'd swear they were playing "Fucking Hostile" by Pantera. In fact, even having heard their song, I'm not so sure that's not correct. Especially when you see Turbo's demonic switch when the fast part comes up:
If that kid has even half that intensity 30 years from now, we're all fucked.
John has a Twitter and a Facebook fan page where he types exactly how that kid plays the xylophone.

I read this in print and was captivated. I did not know too much about Mr. Obama but thought it looked interesting. It brings to light how human he is and how difficult it is to negotiate the world being bi-racial. The most interesting portion is the last third. It is the story of his journey to learn of his family in Africa. It is told almost completely in story format from his family's perspective. The writing is wonderful too. I was sad to finish it.

Thank you to Mr. Obama for sharing his very interesting life. His descriptions of Hawaii, Indonesia, Chicago and Kenya put you right there. His descriptions of his family make you feel as if you have known them all your life. This audio book was my walking companion for 1 week, I was sad for it to end. I laughed out loud and cried, often on the same walk. Mr. Obama's voice is very charismatic, and I think I could listen to him read my grocery list!
As a bi-racial woman, born just 2 years before him, it was very affirming to hear about the doubts and questions of "who am I?" I am giving this book to all of my family members as gifts this year (they too have had these questions). Great listen, highly recommend it!
"An Amazing Storyteller"
An insightful and respectful review of the roots of a man who would continue to inspire millions to become the best they can be, read with the emotion, voices and intonation that only the author could muster. Engaging and totaly entertaining.
"Amazingly true story about Obama told by Obama"
Explains how he became the man we know today as President Obama. Amazing well read by the author himself. It is enjoyable and startling at times ot hear his voice tells you about so many intimate details about his life. It is a story any self-made person can all relate to even though we may not have such exotic life experiences. It is also a lesson in tolerance and race.
"Inside perspective from an outsider"
Biracial Obama was first raised by the Anglo part of his family then entered and lived African-American in early adulthood. He is able to view social dynamics from many perspectives. By revealing his journey in such a compelling manner, he helps the listener consider our American society from its good and its bad sides. This is a great listen.
"A must listen"
Hearing the life story of this man, written before he became President is fascinating. Obama reads it extremely well. It gives insight in the forces that shape the man and will shape our times.
"Just Beautiful"
This was the first book I listened to, and what an amazing choice. I had read the book, so I was already familiar with the wonderful story, but hearing Barack Obama narrate it was an entirely different experience. I was moved to laughter and tears many times throughout the book; hearing it told in Obama's voice really was affecting. I can't recommend the book enough - it's such a moving and personal introduction to our 44th President!
"well-written, inspirational"
Having heard Barack Obama's life story, I think that he can master anything that he sets his mind to master. Every American voter should listen to this book.

"Refreshing and down to earth..."
Wonderful book and story. Enlightening take on life and how we can make our lives happen by taking responsibility for ourselves. I wish there were more with the ability to think this way. What a positive place we could live in!
Fascinating story. I hope Obama becomes president but, if he does not, he should record more books.
He has a terrific reading voice.

An international research team reports that they have identified a second gene variant that confers a high risk of acquiring the more common, late-onset form of Alzheimer's disease. The gene was also found to predict poorer cognitive function in older individuals who do not have Alzheimer's disease, according to the investigators.
The study, carried out by deCODE Genetics and Illumina, along with scientists from the National Hospital of Iceland and collaborators from Holland, Germany, and the U.S., was reported today in the New England Journal of Medicine.
"The discovery of variant TREM2 is important because it confers high risk for Alzheimer's and because the gene's normal biological function has been shown to reduce [the] immune response that may contribute to the disease," explained lead author Kari Stefánsson, M.D., Dr. Med., CEO of deCODE Genetics. "These combined factors make TREM2 an attractive target for drug development."
While a number of common, low-risk variants have been reported to associate with late-onset Alzheimer's, the ε4 allele of Apolipoprotein E, originally discovered as a risk factor for the disease in 1993, has been the most important sequence variant because of its prevalence in the population and the size of its effect on risk.
TREM2, while rarer in the general population than the ApoE ε4 allele, confers a comparable risk of the disease and plays a significant role in the central nervous system. In preclinical studies, TREM2 has been found to regulate the clearing of cell debris and amyloid protein, a component of the amyloid plaques associated with Alzheimer's disease. TREM2 has also been shown to exercise a regulatory control of inflammation, which has been associated with Alzheimer's and cognitive decline.
"Our findings strongly implicate variant TREM2 in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease," said Dr. Stefánsson. "Reduced TREM2 activity may lead to brain damage through increased inflammatory response."
After carrying out a large number of genome sequencing and genotyping operations, deCODE researchers identified approximately 41 million markers, including 191,777 functional variants, from 2,261 Icelandic samples. These variants were then analyzed against the genomes of 3,550 persons with Alzheimer's disease and a control population over the age of 85 without a diagnosis of the disease. The association analysis used to identify the variant TREM2 in the Icelandic population was then replicated against other control populations with Alzheimer's disease maintained in the U.S., Germany, the Netherlands, and Norway.
"Using this approach, we have recently reported variants that greatly influence the risk of developing other diseases, including ovarian cancer, gliomas, gout, and sick sinus syndrome," continued Dr. Stefánsson. "So-called big data research has evolved to a new level of sophistication due to new research tools, access to expanded and high-quality genomic data sets, and certainly the profound analytic skill level of investigators now combining sequence data and biological knowledge to find drug targets."
The issue of which genes are involved in early-onset and late-onset Alzheimer's is not a clearcut division. Last February, scientists the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis reported in PloS One that rare variants of three genes associated with the early onset of the disease—APP, PSEN1, PSEN2—have also been discovered in patients with the late-onset form.
"The presence of variants in these genes…demonstrates that factors other than the mutation can impact the age at onset," wrote the scientists. They believe this finding could eventually lead to changes in how the disease is classified.

The Buffalo News on Jan. 9 filed a Freedom of Information request with Erie County, seeking information about gun permits. The News does not intend to publish a database of the names and addresses of people with registered handguns.
WBEN Radio, without contacting The Buffalo News, erroneously speculated Wednesday morning that The News intended to republish the names and addresses of gun permit owners.
The News is seeking this information just as it has data of voter registration, criminal records, municipal salaries, property assessments, political contributions and tax rates. When reporting on a gun-related crime, for example, The News could check gun permits to determine if an individual has a legal handgun.
The Erie County Clerk's Office on Wednesday provided a letter acknowledging The News' Jan. 9 request, as required by state law, and noting that it would postpone its response following the enactment this week of a new state law that included new provisions allowing some permit holders to request their information be withheld from the public.
"In light of recently enacted legislation, this request must be postponed for 120 days," wrote Patricia L. Fulwiler, deputy county clerk for legal.
The New York Secure Ammunition and Firearms Enforcement Act, which was signed into law on Tuesday, prohibits the public disclosure of the information of licensees or applicants for 120 days after the law took effect. During that time, a new form will be created that will allow new applicants and existing permit holders to seek an exemption from the public disclosure of their information based on certain circumstances.
Erie County Clerk Chris Jacobs late Wednesday said he would not release the names and addresses of handgun permit holders. The office has pistol permits for more than 75,000 people.
"I will exhaust every legal avenue available to keep the records of registered gun owners private, because I believe such disclosure could endanger the life and safety of our citizens," Jacobs said in a written statement. "As an elected official, that will always be my first priority."
Jacobs has not formally rejected the request from The News.
"We expect that the county clerk will set forth his legal grounds for withholding this information, and we trust that he will abide by New York State's Freedom of Information Law," said Mike Connelly, editor and vice president of The News.
Although WBEN reported at 7 a.m. and 8 a.m. Wednesday morning on The News' FOIL request, it didn't contact The News about an explanation until later.
"We stand by the story," said Kevin Geary, a spokesman for Entercom Communications, which owns WBEN. "We called you guys at 9 a.m. and you didn't return our call for a while."
The radio station later included a response from The News in its reports.
Erie County Legislator Joseph C. Lorigo on Wednesday also sought to move forward a resolution requesting that Jacobs wait to respond to requests under the Freedom of Information Law for information about firearms permit holders "until the New York State Judicial System has made a final definitive ruling" on releasing the information.
Lorigo introduced the resolution last week.
On Wednesday, he sought a special meeting for legislators to discuss the proposal prior to a full Legislature meeting next week.
The new state gun control law passed this week retained language that makes public the name and address of handgun permit holders, but provides new exemptions for certain individuals who believe their life and safety may be endangered or believe they may "be subject to unwarranted harassment" because the information is disclosed. Those include retired police and other officers, those covered by an order of protection, crime witnesses and jurors for criminal and grand jury cases.

Age: 91
Residence: Greeley
Celeste Fried, 91, of Greeley, passed away Feb. 10, 2013, at the Hospice of Northern Colorado In-Patient Care Center. She was born Nov. 7, 1921, in the Bronx, N.Y., to Frank and Elizabeth Blavet, who had recently emigrated to the U.S. from Hungary.
On Jan. 30, 1951, she married Emery Fried in New York City. After moving to Elmont in Nassau County, Long Island in 1952, she remained there for the next 41 years before moving to Greeley, to be near her daughter. Mrs. Fried was raised in the Bronx, N.Y. After high school graduation, she attended the Packard Business School in New York City, where she met and remained friends throughout her life with a group of women who called themselves the Packardites. During her early years, she was employed in various civil service positions in Washington, D.C., and Florida, before returning to New York. For the majority of Mrs. Fried's career, she served as executive director of various senior centers on Long Island, where she was known for her innovative program development and services for older adults, as well as involvement in state and national legislation activities focusing on older adults. She served as president of the New York State Senior Center Directors Association and received many awards for her work.
Soon after arriving in Greeley, she used her planning and organizational talents once again to initiate and develop with other founding members the Greeley Retirees Academic Study Program (GRASP), which is currently sponsored by the Greeley Senior Activities Center. This group is member driven and studies subjects of interest to its membership. This spoke to her love of learning, which was evident throughout her life. Among her other interests, she loved to read and play Scrabble, listen to classical music and attend symphony concerts, and see Broadway shows in N.Y., as well as travel throughout the world, especially with Elderhostel programs.
She is survived by her daughter, Juliet Fried, of Greeley; grandson, Nicholas Fried, of Astoria, N.Y.; sister, Gloria Sotsky, of Bayside, N.Y.; daughter-in-law, Carolyn Belman, of Amherst, N.H.; niece, Joy Geddes, of Oceanside, N.Y.; and nephew, Steven Sotsky, of Bayside, N.Y.

Al attended school in both Leadville, and later in Salida, where he graduated from Salida High School. Al received a football scholarship to Colorado College in Colorado Springs, where he was known for his "golden toe." While in college, he met Adonis L. "Donna" Whittecar, a nursing student, who became Mrs. Ritchie on Aug. 2, 1941, in Raton, N.M. Their only child, Carol Kay, was born the following year. Soon thereafter, Al was called into the Army and left for Fort Hood, Wash., when Kay was 3 months old. He served in the Signal Corp of the Army, traveling to New Guinea and the Philippines. When he returned, their daughter was 3 years of age. Al returned to college on the GI Bill, and received his degree from Colorado College in 1946. He began a long career with Mountain States Bell, which moved him and his family from Colorado Springs, to Cripple Creek, to Fort Morgan, and then Loveland. The Ritchie's moved to Greeley in 1965, and have resided here since. He retired from the phone company in 1981. Al's hobbies were painting and sketching. Both his sense of humor and his strong love of dogs were reflected in his cartoon drawings.

Many patients and caregivers do not live close to a myeloma support group. Those who might have a support group conveniently nearby may find that the group meets at a time when they are working, busy with family obligations, or when they are just too tired to get in the car and drive. Others just don't like talking face to face. Whatever the reason, the IMF has, for many years, provided an alternative source of information and support to myeloma patients, caregivers, friends, and family.
The Multiple Myeloma ListServ—affectionately called "The List" by its 1500 members—was founded by Michael Katz, an IMF Director, and June Brazil, a myeloma patient. At a time when the number of in-person myeloma support groups was nowhere near the over 140 groups that exist today, Mike and June sought to link myeloma patients via an e-mail discussion forum.
The List has created a true "cyber family" that includes doctors and lawyers, construction workers and homemakers, teachers and salesmen, retired people, musicians, writers, and others. Members of this diverse group share their experiences, accumulated knowledge, and moral support. They discuss everything from treatments and side effects to family issues and useful tips about dealing with health insurance and improving relationships with healthcare providers. The List has created countless friendships, often between people who have never met.
Recently, List members have even participated in an IMF-led online study that looked at the possible link between bisphosphonate use and a serious condition called osteonecrosis of the jaw. In July 2005, the results of this study were reported in the New England Journal of medicine. The remarkable group thus not only helps each other directly, but has also added to the body of knowledge of an important issue facing many myeloma patients today.
Joining this group couldn't be easier. Here's how:
List members are welcome to participate in discussions or to simply avail themselves of the information being shared by others. If you are interested in researching a particular topic, a searchable archive is also available, dating back to June of 1998. When posting an inquiry to the List, you will find that the responses you receive are almost always compassionate, knowledgeable, and relevant. The List will probably be the best group you never wanted to join!

Journal photo by Edward Marshall
Fire and rescue personnel work the scene of an accident Tuesday near the 8-mile marker of Interstate 81. A 24-year-old Kearneysville woman was killed.
The crash investigation revealed that a Hyundai Elantra driven by Guier was traveling north on I-81. The driver lost control of the vehicle and traveled off the west roadway edge, according to a news release.
The vehicle began to spin counterclockwise and traveled sideways through the median. The vehicle continued through the median and entered the southbound lanes of I-81.
A Ford Edge driven by Ashley French, 28, of Martinsburg, was traveling south in the left-hand lane. The Edge hit the passenger side of the Elantra, which caused the Elantra to spin clockwise. The Elantra came to rest on the shoulder of I-81, police said.
Article Map
The debris from the crash hit a third vehicle, a Saturn sports utility vehicle operated by Ann Prince, 47, of Mays Landing, N.J., which was traveling south on I-81.
Guier was pronounced dead at the scene from apparent injuries sustained in the crash. The other drivers involved were not medically transported, police said.
Southbound lanes were shut down for about an hour after the accident.

Previous DailyTech stories have detailed recent cooling experienced by the planet, and highlighted some of the scientists currently predicting extended global cooling. Even the UN IPCC has stated that world temperatures may continue to decline, if only briefly.
Now, an expert in geophysics at the National Autonomous University of Mexico has added his voice to the fray. Victor Manuel Velasco Herrera, a researcher at UNAM's Institute of Geophysics, has predicted an imminent period of cooling intense enough to be called a small ice age.
Speaking to a crowd at a conference at the Center for Applied Sciences and Technological Development, Herrera says the sun can both cool and warm the planet. Variations in solar activity, he says, are causing changes in the Earth's climate.
"So that in two years or so, there will be a small ice age that lasts from 60 to 80 years", he said. "The most immediate result will be drought." Herrera says satellite temperature data indicates this cooling may have already begun.
Recent increases in glacier mass in the Andes, Patagonia, and Canada were given as further evidence of an upcoming cold spell.
Herrera also described the predictions of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) as "erroneous". According to Herrera, their forecasts "are incorrect because are only based on mathematical models which do not include [factors such as] solar activity".
Herrera pointed to the so-called "Little Ice Age" which peaked in the 17th century, as a previous cooling event caused by solar fluctuations.
Herrera made his remarks at UNAM, located in Mexico City, is the oldest university on the North American continent.
quote: Over 400 prominent scientists from more than two dozen countries recently voiced significant objections to major aspects of the so-called "consensus" on man-made global warming. These scientists, many of whom are current and former participants in the UN IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change), criticized the climate claims made by the UN IPCC and former Vice President Al Gore

A Round Hill woman was arrested Tuesday morning after police developed information to implicate her as a suspect in her husband's death.
Tatiana Leibel, 50, was arrested at 8:50 a.m. Tuesday, two days after Douglas County Sheriff's deputies responded to her Kent Way home to a report that her husband, Harry Leibel, 64, had shot himself. On Sunday, Tatiana Leibel stated she and her husband were the only people at the house at the time of the incident.
Harry Leibel was shot twice and died of a fatal wound, Douglas County Sheriff's Sgt. Pat Brooks said Tuesday.
During the subsequent investigation, information was developed to implicate Tatiana Leibel as a suspect. Leibel's arrest was based both on an autopsy of Harry Leibel's body and of a police investigation, Brooks said. She is being held without bail on an open murder charge.
According to the Douglas County Assessor's Office, the home at 452 Kent in Round Hill is owned by Harry Leibel and Tatiana Kosyrkina, who purchased it in 2006.
Kosyrkina and Leibel are listed as officers of a computer software company TLA & Group Corp., registered with the Nevada Secretary of State's Office in 2006. The corporation's status was revoked.
