Passengers could see truck was about to hit train
Staff Writers
October 12, 2013
Passengers onboard during Friday's tourist train wreck said they felt a moment of terror when they realized a logging truck was about to strike the Cheat Mountain Salamande....
What is truth?

Lots of wrong information being reported on these comments as well as some statements in the news articles. First the D&GVRR has been operating over this crossing since at least 1999. Second their are standard advanced warning signs (round yellow RXR signs) prior to this crossing and modern red flashing warning signals on the crossing. (Law Enforcement reported that the flashing red signals were operating upon arrival at the scene) Highway traffic approaching this crossing northbound has very good sight distance if travelling at posted speed limit.(Truck was northbound) And the last time I checked both WV state law and federal law every commercial vehicle is required to stop at all railroad crossings!

The truck drive was heading northbound on US 250, from Durbin towards Huttonsville. You can see the crossing for at least 800 feet in advance from that direction. A truck should have been able to stop in less than half that distance.

I have seen trucks pull across the tracks right in front of the train at the rock crushing plant on Rt 33. All the truck had to do was stall or the driver miss a gear and the train would have hit the truck. The company should direct the drivers to stop and let the train pass before entering the facility. The drivers do have enough sense to stop for on coming cars when the enter Rt 33 at Kelly Mountain so why they do not stop for a train I have no idea.

I have crossed these tracks often and that is why I slow down when I approach them. I drive all over the east coast and anytime I see black skid marks on a road I slow down and become more cautious. There are several places in the Elkins area that are an example of this. When coming from Kelly Mountain and making a left onto Isner Creek Road to take a short cut to Walmart you can see the black skid marks in the road so I am extra careful. If I was driving a large log truck and I lived in the area I would have slowed down every time I approached the railroad crossing. I know it comes up on you pretty fast when you are driving south so common sense would tell me to slow down. It seem that the driver did everything he could do to avoid the collision once he became aware of the problem. If he had lowered his speed before he got to the crossing things might be different. The speed limit is 55 mph on the road but to stop a log truck it takes much longer than a car.

A deer suddenly jumping out of the underbrush is a far cry from a huge slow moving passenger train at a train crossing. This could very well be a case of mechanical failure, but if it is not, and the driver was not unconscious due to a health related issue, then it is driver error. You have to be able to operate whatever vehicle you are in charge of in a safe and responsible manner. This includes accounting for a child running into the road, a deer darting from the underbrush, or a train at a train crossing. I think sometimes that the safety of those in rural areas is not viewed in the same manner as those in the suburbs. Surely one would not drive a 7000 lb truck through a neighborhood at a rate they would not be able to stop should something dart out in front of the truck or even be seen at a distance up the street. However the same does not hold true for the hills and hollers because many of those trucks are flat getting it.

Thank you joe for the remark about the black marks mark brady makes it sound like he seen the train and become a terrorist no signs of braking just put the warning lights around the turn would have prevented this

Well have lived here all my life I drive a truck for a living I also have almost hit that train and so have many othersyou see black marks on the road there all the time they even have made comments about some close calls that shows me how stupid and blind the state and railroad are need a better warning system or pull up the tracks but tourism rules spend some money and make it safe and as for no black marks its an 70000 lb truck they dont stop on a dime next time you try to stop your carwhen a deer jumps out maybe you will realize this

I find it difficult to find a way to blame the engineer or the train company in this instance. Lets take the train out of it. Say the truck was traveling exactly the same speed and velocity and there was no train. Instead, at the exact same distance a 3 year old child, YOUR 3 year old child wandered into the road. The truck would still not stop as it is not under control: whether it be operator error or mechanical error. I choose not to make judgement but there is a very narrow spectrum where the cause of this tragedy can be placed.

Although the train tours were not scheduled on a daily basis they did occur during MANY days of the year ... not casting aspersions on the death of this driver ... but if you earn your living driving across these tracks MANY MANY times ... you should have at least had this fact in the back of your mind and slowed down before entering a blind curve ...

Yea, PCWVgal, some comments, like yours, sadden me also. What do you consider MANY in the 'MANY years since a train has used those tracks'??? I moved to the area in 2005 and have ridden the D&GVRR to High Falls using those tracks. The tourist trains run all summer & fall. As they do every year. If anything, it might have been five days since the tracks were used... assuming the D&GVRR did not have a Thursday train running! Yep, get some facts straight.

It saddens me to read a few of these comments. It is obvious that you are neither familiar with the scene of the accident nor driving a truck . First, let me say that the area is NOT well marked and that it has been MANY years since a train has used those tracks. Not only is there a downhill slope but also a blind turn before the tracks in a 55 mph zone. You don't know until you round the turn if lights are flashing and then only have less than 100 yards to come to a complete stop. According to witnesses, the driver tried to upset the truck to keep from hitting the train. I am sure he was aware brakes weren't going to help him at this point. Also, if you have ever ridden in a truck you would know there was no way he could hear the train over the engine brake. So, before you go pointing fingers and making assumptions, get your facts straight. Or rather, pray for his small children who no longer have their daddy and for his wife, family and friends that he left behind.

What does a load of logs have to do with the truck leaving no skid marks?
2 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
The trains that leave Elkins pass within seventy five feet of where I live in the summer. I can hear the horns blowing a couple of minutes before and after they make the Bowden Crossing. I have no idea why you would not be able to hear the extremely loud horns even if you were driving a large truck. It looks like the drive made no attempt to get off the road before the crossing or even slow down. The impact seems to say that he was going at a pretty good speed when he hit the train. There must be some reason why he was unable to stop his truck before he hit the train. I suspect it was one of several reasons including break failure or over heated breaks that could not stop the truck.

According to one of the very 1st eye witnesses & his photos there wasn't fog at the time of the accident & his photos showed steam still coming off the log truck when he arrived found the scene. The log truck driver had driven this route hundreds of times. Maybe his autopsy & the examination of the truck will yield some answers. 2 of the more injured train employees worked at getting injured passengers out before even realizing they were so injured. 1 of those 2 were is in Morgantown & as of last night they thought of sending the 2nd one there to be checked out.

A retrofit of tighlock couplers would have kept that coach upright. The knuckle is still closed in one of the photos meaning it lifted out of the other coupler and rolled. Many injuries could have been prevented by the coupler switch and the car would have not rolled.

MTV Cancels Buckwild After Shain Gandee's Death
Originally posted 04/10/2013 11:45AM
With its West Virginians partying hard and playing harder, Buckwild became a breakout hit for MTV in its first season and was poised to fill the void left by Jersey Shore.
But after the carbon monoxide-poisoning deaths of cast member Shain Gandee and two others while driving their SUV through the mud, MTV has canceled the show.
"We love the cast and the show and this was not an easy decision, but given Shain's tragic passing and essential presence on the show, we felt it was not appropriate to continue without him," MTV says in a statement. "Instead, we are working on a meaningful way to pay tribute to his memory on our air and privately."
Shain Gandee's Family: He Died Doing What He Loved
Originally posted 04/05/2013 03:30PM
Shain Gandee died while "mudding," a passion he displayed while starring on MTV's Buckwild.
Gandee's cousin, Ashley Gandee Lewis, 32, describes it as a "country sport" when you "go in clean and come out covered in mud. People make mud holes. They kill up the ground and take the grass off the top. They take a water hose and soak the ground until it gets completely muddy. The more you play, the dirtier you get."
Lewis adds, "As country people, we don't golf. We grab a four-wheeler and some friends and find stuff to do, whether it's rope swinging in the creek or going mudding."
Monday morning was the last time Shain, 21, would ever be seen in his mud-covered Bronco. After missing for 31 hours, the reality star was found unresponsive in the SUV with two other males, including his uncle.
Shain Gandee Died of Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

As friends and fans mourn the loss of Shain Gandee, authorities say the Buckwild star and two others died due to toxic exhaust fumes filling their stuck-in-the-mud SUV.
The 21-year-old reality TV personality, his uncle and another man who has not officially been identified were found unresponsive in Gandee's Bronco on Monday morning, after being reported missing since early Saturday morning.
"Foul play has been ruled out," Kanawha County Commissioner Kent Carper of West Virginia told PEOPLE on Tuesday.
Autopsies later confirmed the men died of the gas and that the deaths were accidental.

"We are shocked and saddened by the terrible news about Shain Gandee, and those involved in this tragic incident," an MTV rep said in a statement. "We are waiting for more information, but at this time, our main concern is for the Gandee family and their friends."
Continues the statement, "Our thoughts and prayers are with them. Shain had a magnetic personality, with a passion for life that touched everyone he met and we will miss him dearly."

Here are five things to look forward to during the final episode of season 13:
1. The three judges will finally perform together.
"It was a blast," Harry Connick Jr. told PEOPLE on Tuesday of pre-taping his performance of Cyndi Lauper's "True Colors" and Fleetwood Mac's "Go Your Own Way" with his fellow judges, Jennifer Lopez and Keith Urban, as well as mentor Randy Jackson. "Jen chose 'True Colors' but I don't know who chose Fleetwood Mac. Being up there with them performing after talking about it for so many months was just great."
2. Caleb Johnson will perform with Kiss.
"I rehearsed with Kiss last night and they were absolutely amazing. They are some of the nicest, funniest people I've ever met. They were so insightful and gave me a lot of good feedback," Johnson told reporters. "I heard that they spent $25,000 on pyro for the show tomorrow and we rehearsed it and it was literally like Fourth of July, just [boom, boom, boom]."
3. Jena Irene will perform with Paramore.
"I haven't rehearsed with them yet, but it should be good," Ascuitto said. "I hope I get [lead singer Hayley Williams's] number so we can text all the time. I'm a fangirl a little bit. I've loved that band since I was 12 years old, so there's going to be a lot of things that I would like to talk to her about, but so little time."
4. The Top 13's girls will perform with Demi Lovato – but without MK Nobilette.
"Hey everyone I won't be in the finale this year due to illness but don't worry! I will still be on tour," Nobilette (the FOX reality singing competition's first openly gay contestant) Tweeted on May 19.
But the rest of the girls are excited to perform with the "Neon Lights" singer.
"Demi is extremely hardworking. She came right into the rehearsal, said 'hi' to everyone and learned all of our names, which was really nice," Asciutto said. "You can tell that she wants to put on the best performance she possibly can."
5. The 13th winner of American Idol will be crowned!
"It is going to be close, I would imagine," Connick said of it coming down to Asciutto and Johnson. "It is like a boxer versus a puncher and it is so cool. I think it is a matter of preference, really. It is not a matter of who did better. It is who you like more and who is going to vote for their favorite."
The American Idol finale airs Wednesday (8 p.m. ET) on Fox.

The Stetson Hatters saw their sixth scrimmage of the fall come to an early end on Saturday afternoon when a thunderstorm rolled over the Stetson Athletics Training Center.
The Hatters were able to complete 58 plays of what was expected to be a 120-play afternoon.
"I would have loved to have gotten another 50 or so snaps in," Hatters coach Roger Hughes said. "We were just about to halftime. I wanted to get some work in the two minute offense and some of the other things that we didn't get a chance to do in special situations."
What he did see was the offensive unit take a step forward after being overshadowed by the defense in all of the other scrimmages, especially the one last week.
"We really cut back on what we were doing (on offense) and worked to prepare this week as if we were preparing for a game," Hughes said. "We practiced everything we did in the scrimmage and I think that really showed. The guys have pride, and they knew the defense kicked our tails last week and they went out there today with something to prove."
Overall, there were 11 offensive possessions in the scrimmage. Five of those ended in points (four touchdowns and a field goal) and four ended in punts. The other two possessions ended in a blocked field goal and an interception.
The first offense got things started with a six-play, 67-yard touchdown drive behind quarterback Ryan Tentler (Chicago, Ill.), who took care of the final 36 yards on his own by keeping the ball on the option around the end. That long run was bested by Nick LaSala (Boca Raton, Fla.) later in the scrimmage when he pulled the same trick, taking a QB keeper 50 yards for a score.
"Nick LaSala runs the ball very well," Hughes said. "He just has to get a little more comfortable in the pocket. Ryan Tentler has great command of the offense. He gets us in the right plays and gets everyone lined up. He is further ahead in the mechanics of the offense just because he knows everything."
Tentler completed three of his five pass attempts for 20 yards while LaSala was six-of-nine for 62 yards, with one interception, which was recorded on a deflection by Glenn Adesoji (Memphis, Tenn.).
The only touchdown passes in the scrimmage were completed by Jonathan Jerozal (Canyon County, Calif.) on a short pass to Keegan Tanner (Wesley Chapel, Fla.) who battled 15 yards for the score, and an 82-yard pass and run from Ian Leggett (Davie, Fla.) to running back Meyrick Lamb (Marion Heights, Pa.) on what turned out to be the final play of the scrimmage.
"John Jerizol has probably showed as much improvement as anyone this week," Hughes said. "He didn't run the option in high school, but he is starting to get comfortable with it. Overall, we are getting better."
On the defensive side of the ball, some of the same players who have made plays in earlier scrimmages continued to shine. That includes linebacker Julius Holder (Austell, Ga.), who had a pair of tackles for loss and a sack.
"Julius has a knack when he is on the move of making plays," Hughes said.
Two other players who stood out on defense were defensive backs – safety Donald Payne (Fayetteville, Ga.) and corner back Chris Atkins (Jacksonville, Fla.). Payne had three and a half tackles, including a pair of tackles for loss and half a sack he shared with Ryan Powers (Jupiter, Fla.). Atkins had four tackles and a pass breakup.
"Payne is really physical," Hughes said. "He has been our most dynamic player from the start, but now he is starting to settle in where he is not wildcatting all the time. He is starting to understand the defense and where he is supposed to be.
"The thing I like about Chris Atkins is that he plays with a lot of confidence, and that is one of those things that both corners and quarterbacks have to have. Out there you can get hung out to dry, but he believes that he can't be beaten."
The Hatters played the scrimmage with officials for a second straight week, but saw just four penalties that were marked off.
"Overall, it has been great having the officials out here because, number one, our coaches can coach instead of officiating," Hughes said. "Two, it gives the kids more of a game feel, and that is something that we have just not been able to do. We want to make these scrimmages as much of a game experience as we can.
"There were a couple of penalties that were called that were great, teachable things. We are going to do that again for the next two scrimmages, including homecoming, to give the kids a feel for what games days are all about."
Those next two scrimmages are scheduled for October 20 and November 3. Both are scheduled to start at 2 p.m.
In between the scrimmages, Hughes will be taking part in two more alumni tailgates, both in the state of Florida. Next Saturday he will be in Tallahassee for the Florida State game against Boston College. On Oct. 27, the Stetson coach will be in Jacksonville for the Florida-Georgia game.
"I am hoping that these next two, both in Tallahassee and in Jacksonville, will be the biggest tailgates we have had," Hughes said. "The indication is that a lot of people are excited about them. I am excited because I am going to get to see good football, but also I want the alums to get excited when they see how exciting this can be. Hopefully they will both build momentum toward our homecoming here."
Tickets for the 2013 season will go on sale on Monday, October 8, and will be available first based on levels of past donations. Fans who made previous deposits for tickets will be able to begin choosing their seats on Oct. 19. Sales will open to the general public on Nov. 3 at the Green-White Scrimmage.

BURNHAM - The Greater Lewistown Shopping Plaza is home to a new restaurant inspired by the Dominican Republic culture and food. Quisqueya Restaurant owner Paulina Guante is cooking up made-to-order dishes and buffet style recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Before relocating to the United States, Guante ran a restaurant in Puerto Rico. After starting her life in Pennsylvania, she continued creating dishes and serving meals to friends and family. On Sept. 1, she officially opened Quisqueya Restaurant, persevering in her dream to own a successful food establishment, Guante said.
Quisqueya refers to a major island in the Caribbean which contains Haiti and the Dominican Republic. Puerto Rico rests just east of the Dominican Republic and features a number of similar foods, Guante said. Where she comes from, eating is a cultural experience, she added.

Paulina Guante stands by her handmade buffet selections during the late lunch hours Thursday at Quisqueya, a new restaurant in Burnham. Guests can enjoy the buffet or place an order for specialty dishes.
"I love every aspect of cooking," Guante said. "The taste is just as important as the look of a dish. I'm excited to bring these parts of my culture to the area. So far, the restaurant has gotten a great response."
The menu consists of a variety of American, Caribbean and Dominican food, Guante said. Her two favorite dishes on the menu are monfogo and tostones, both plantain style recipes. Monfogo is made from fried green plantains which are mashed together with broth, garlic and olive oil to form a bowl. It's then filled with vegetables, chicken, crab, shrimp or beef. Tostones is made from sliced green plantains, stuffed with shrimp and then twice fried.
"The tostones are a favorite because they taste good and monfogo is a favorite because it looks beautiful on a plate," Guente said. "Besides the buffet, which is handmade, everything on the menu is made-to-order."
Quisqueya is open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Friday through Sunday. Buffet service is available from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday to Thursday and 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Friday to Sunday. Take-out is available by in-store order. The restaurant is located at 224 N. Logan Blvd., Burnham, and can be reached at 248-2004.

The Randolph County Humane Society is excited to host an upcoming benefit concert that will feature Jack Gibbons, a classical pianist and composer and Davis & Elkins College's artist in residence.
The concert is sponsored by Davis & Elkins College, and it will begin at 4 p.m. April 27 at the Davis Memorial Presbyterian Church.
Through music composed in honor of the animals in their lives, Gibbons will bring to life "Pets of the Great Composers: from Gershwin's Dog to Mozart's Starling." This whimsical look at a side of the great composers not often presented will have the audience laughing, remembering and honoring the pets with whom they have shared their lives.
The performance will present a new mix of material from a novel vantage point. During the concert, Gibbons will entertain his audience with stories of various composers and their pets. The program will include Gershwin's "Walking the Dog" and Chopin's "Dog Waltz" as well as a poem Mozart wrote for his beloved bird, a starling, which he read at the bird's backyard burial.
Some of the other animals represented musically will include cuckoos, lions, mice, fleas, elephants and a hunting scene with hounds, re-enacted in music from Charles Valentin Alkan's composition "Aesop's Feast."
"We are extremely grateful to Davis & Elkins College and to Jack Gibbons for offering his time and world-class talent to perform a benefit concert for the Randolph County Humane Society," said Ginny Zuboy, RCHS board member and volunteer. "This program is fresh and new and sure to please his audience, whether they are pet lovers, lovers of classical music or simply fans of Jack Gibbons. His programs are always lively and fun - and then there is the music!

LISBON - The school board is spending $22,000 to correct a problem that is preventing it from maximizing savings under a $1.1 million energy conservation program begun 18 months ago.
The board voted at Tuesday's meeting to hire the Cleveland-area firm of Gardiner Trane for $22,000 to replace malfunctioning carbon dioxide sensors on the HVAC systems that are preventing the system from achieving maximum energy efficiency.
Gardiner is the firm hired by the board in 2010 to perform the energy conservation study and then draft the plan to make the necessary improvements to achieve those savings.
Bonds totaling $1.1 million were sold through the state's school energy conservation program, with the district to pay off the bonds over 15 years. The conservation measures were projected to save the district $146,380 per year in utility costs, which is enough to pay off the debt in less than 12 years.
Gardiner was recently paid $3,000 to determine if the changes were achieving the promised savings, and School Superintendent Don Thompson reported that they were not. "At this point we are only at 70 percent of what we should be," he said.
The problem is the HVAC sensors on the pre-existing portion of the system, which are out of calibration and cannot be recalibrated to work with the new portion of the system. This is causing the HVAC systems to operate inefficiently by running more frequently than necessary.
Thompson said the pre-existing HVAC system that was retained is not all that old, having been installed during the 2004-2008 period when the elementary and junior/senior high schools underwent an upgrade. Rather than automatically upgrade the pre-existing HVAC, Gardiner recommended waiting to see how the old system would work in conjunction with the new system.
The new sensors will allow the pre-existing HVAC system to be calibrated in sync with the new system and begin operating in the energy efficient manner needed to achieve the promised savings.
"While we were saving, the savings were not where they need to be ... The issue became how long did we want to live with that 70 percent" savings, Thompson said.

The Penn Cambria boys turned their PIAA Class AA playoff opener into a virtual remake of "Rocky," playing out on a basketball court instead of a boxing ring.
Unfortunately for the Panthers, they couldn't turn it into "Rocky II," the one where the underdog Balboa wins.
Penn Cambria withstood state power Greensburg Central Catholic's barrage in the first half to grab the lead early in the fourth quarter. However, the Centurions, who got 21 points apiece from the guard tandem of Zach Herman and Brian Graytok, pulled away in the last two minutes for a 66-56 win on Saturday afternoon at the Altoona Area High School Fieldhouse, overcoming A.J. Leahey's 22-point effort in the process.
Senior forward Devin Lawhead chipped in with 14 points for the Panthers. Penn Cambria trailed 38-21 at the 6:53 mark of the third quarter but went ahead 51-50 on Leahey's fallaway 3-pointer with 6:03 left in the game before Central Catholic went on an 8-0 run to keep at arm's length the rest of the way.
"Our heart [kept us in it]. We knew we could play with them. We just came out flat. That made it tougher. We battled," said Leahey, choking back tears. "It's definitely tough. I can't believe I played my last game with a great group of guys."
Leahey scored 14 in the second half and wound up with 11 rebounds and four blocked shots, as well. The District 6 champion Panthers closed the year 20-5.
"Even spotting them 16 points at halftime, we had the lead," Penn Cambria coach Jim Ronan said. "We battled our guts out. That's a good team. They're ranked No. 2 in the state, and we had a chance to win it in the fourth. That's all you can ask as a coach."
Penn Cambria even got the ball back on James Mardula's steal after Leahey's go-ahead 3-pointer - the Panthers' zone press was pivotal in the comeback, playing a part in 13 second-half turnovers by the Centurions. Penn Cambria, though, turned the ball right back over and didn't score again for more than three minutes.
"We had them on their heels. If we could have kept it up that intensity for just one more minute, I think we would have had it," Ronan said.
Leahey made another trey with 2:11 left to get Penn Cambria back within four, but the Centurions scored the game's last six points. Central Catholic improved to 23-2. Surprise losers in the WPIAL quarterfinals, the Centurions next face District 10 runner-up Lakeview, a 44-40 winner against Quaker Valley, in Wednesday's second round.
"They're a good team. They're tough. They're strong. Teams like that, the farther they get down, the harder they play. They didn't want this to be their last game," Centurions coach Greg Bisignani said of the Panthers. "I told the kids after the game, if you told me we were going to be up 16 at halftime, I'd have said, 'No way.' If you told me we were going to be up 16 at halftime and lose the lead in the second half, I'd say, 'No way.' My hat's off to them, but our kids also didn't give up and played hard."
After Collin Bisignani's free throw 1:07 into the second half gave Central Catholic a 17-point lead for the second time in the contest, Penn Cambria went on a 25-8 run to erase the margin in exactly eight minutes. Leahey put back a missed 3-pointer to draw the Panthers within a bucket, then Nathan Keagy, who scored all eight of his points in the second half, tied it on a loose-ball layup tipped over from Mack Behe.
"It all started with the great group of guys we have. Coach said in the locker room that we love each other," Lawhead said. "We never gave up."
Lawhead even made just his sixth 3-pointer of the season during the comeback.
"I just had the open shot," Lawhead said. "I shoot 3s in practice a lot. I just don't usually shoot them in a game unless I'm wide open. I knew when it left my fingertips that it was going in."
As memorable as the rally was, the first half was just as forgettable for Penn Cambria. Graytok got two quick fouls on Behe, and he and Herman, who made three 3s in the first two quarters, combined for 31 points before the intermission. Central Catholic utilized a quickness advantage in the backcourt.
"We knew we'd have to run. It'd be hard to try to set up in the halfcourt against their size," Herman said. "We tried to make it an up-tempo game in the first half. I think we did a pretty good job of that."
Ronan pulled his five senior starters in the final minute of the game and put his other three seniors on the floor to finish up.
"This is a great group of guys. I'll remember all the fun we had at practice, all the fun we had at the games. We had the best coaching staff around," Leahey said. "We had a great year."

Witness in Palestine: A Jewish American Woman in the Occupied Territories
Paradigm Publishers, 2007 - Political Science - 397 pages
Anna Baltzer, a young Jewish American, went to the West Bank to discover the realities of daily life for Palestinians under the occupation. What she found would change her outlook on the conflict forever. She wrote this book to give voice to the stories of the people who welcomed her with open arms as their lives crumbled around them.
For five months, Baltzer lived and worked with farmers, Palestinian and Israeli activists,
and the families of political prisoners, traveling with them across endless checkpoints and
roadblocks to reach hospitals, universities, and olive groves. Baltzer witnessed firsthand
the environmental devastation brought on by expanding settlements and outposts and the
destruction wrought by Israel's "Security Fence," which separates many families from each other, their communities, their land, and basic human services. What emerges from Baltzer's journal is not a sensationalist tale of suicide bombers and conspiracies, but a compelling and inspiring description of the trials of daily life under the occupation.

Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour® Cream is the legendary, award-winning skin protectant that does more than soothe sun-burned skin, rehydrate chapped lips, and heal rough elbows and calluses. It's also the secret that makeup artists all over the world use for keeping legs, lips and eyelids shiny; eyebrows in place; and cuticles perfectly manicured. There are an infinite number of ways to use this classic cream, but here are 8 great ones:
1. SKIN SAVER – Protect skin from drying wind, central heating and air conditioning. This skincare multi-tasker soothes, restores, calms and helps relieve minor skin irritations, including roughness, redness, chapped, cracked or dry skin.
2. SHINE FACTOR – Found in top makeup artists' kits worldwide, this all-in-one beauty tool adds shine to eyelids, cheeks, lips and legs.
3. EYE OPENER – All it takes is a dab to smooth eyebrows and create a perfectly defined arch that will stay in place all day.
4. CUTICLE CONDITIONER – Soften rough, dry cuticles to keep them smooth, supple and beautifully manicured.
5. TREAT FOR FEET – Smooth rough heels and soften soles for barefoot beauty in every season.
6. AFTER-SUN SOOTHER – With its legendary soothing and moisturizing benefits, it's the ideal after-sun treatment to relieve minor sunburn and calm dry, irritated sun-exposed skin.
7. FLIGHT TOOL – Flying can leave skin looking and feeling dry and uncomfortable. Pack this intensive hydrator to boost skin's in-flight moisture level wherever you go.
8. LEG WEAR – Great for an après shave or après wax treatment. This classic cream calms irritation, reduces redness and leaves legs super-smooth and silky-soft.
THE LEGEND Created in 1930 by Elizabeth Arden herself to soothe skin, Eight Hour® Cream Skin Protectant became an instant and overwhelming success. What made it so effective? A combination of petrolatum, a skin-soothing beta-hydroxy -- debuting in one of its first cosmetic uses -- and vitamin E. The apricot-colored balm was so beneficial to her clients that Miss Arden even used it to soothe her famous thoroughbred horses' legs. Even its name came about thanks to a remarkable performance – a loyal client used it to treat her child's skinned knee and "Eight Hour®s" later, the skin was all better.
As seen on The Today Show and Rachael Ray.
BEAUTY TIP: "As a makeup artist, I love to use this on the runway. The eyelids, cheekbones – the lips as a gloss. It's great as a brow fixative to keep the brows in place. It's great on the elbows and cuticles; it heals, moisturizes and soothes. It reverses the dryness in the skin, especially during cold weather – it's terrific. It gives that beautiful, healthy and natural look to the skin."—Rebecca Restrepo, Global Makeup Artist

Rated 4 out of 5�by VFRCruiser Stylish Comfort Not much to say about a belt, but I like the style and quality of the materials here. Nike has done well. The reversible characteristic makes it fairly easy to make a change. That change will require a very small screwdriver, so changing on the fly away from the home is not possible. Nonetheless, with a little forethought, one has two very good-looking belts. Can't say yet about the durability and wear over time, but I don't expect it to perform poorly with use. September 8, 2012

Hockey fans, take a stand, or else both sides will continue to treat you like crap.
The players treat us like crap?
Yes, I think you grasped what he was trying to say. In the context that the original quote was saying the owners treat us like crap for not giving in to the NHLPA, I believe he was asserting that if one were to actually hold that kind of position, then logically the same must also be leveled against the players (read: NHLPA)... who likewise are not giving into the owners, and therefore are also causing the fans to miss out on NHL hockey. Is that the confirmation you were looking for with your question? Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Notes and Quotes
"We always concern ourselves with their defense because of how aggressive they are on defense. Since we are a motion team, we spend a lot of time trying to create motion against their defense. We do spend time obviously with their new players but for us, it is more about their defense. That is the strongest part of their game is their defense." Villanova coach Harry Perretta

The business model for the expansion of Squaw Valley appears to be to draw overnight guests currently staying in other lodging.
"Additional units and bedrooms would give resort-goers a chance to stay overnight, Hosea added, rather than them leaving, driving to other accommodations and returning the next day." (Sierra Sun 1/25/2013).
Capturing these visitors will be aided by the fact that day parking will be expensive or off-site, greatly increasing the cost and inconvenience for visitors staying outside the valley and for locals. The water park and roller coaster are necessary for this business model to succeed, in order to give overnight visitors things to do in the valley in the summer.
While KSL's economic analysis is claimed to show that the project is economically viable for KSL, it will clearly have a negative impact on rentals, restaurants and shops outside the valley. Current economic and demographic trends give no reason to expect that there will be enough new visitors in coming years to fill the beds at Squaw Valley without taking business away from surrounding communities.
We will be left with an enclave of the wealthy in Olympic Valley and increasingly derelict communities in Truckee and North Tahoe. The leadership of Truckee and the North Tahoe communities should be lobbying the Placer County Supervisors to deny this project.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – After being penalized three times last week for delay of game, Mother Nature delayed the start of the Iowa Hawkeyes' game here today against the Indiana Hoosiers.
Scheduled for a 2:30 kickoff Iowa time, it was a little over an hour later that the thunder and lightning storms finally cleared the area the teams took the field.
But the weather was the least of the Hawkeyes' concerns as the game unfolded.
Rather, it was the previously dismal Indiana defense that stepped up and caused a whirlwind of problems for the Iowa offensive.
Having given up an average of 36 points and 516 yards of offense per game before today, the Hoosier defense held the Hawkeye offense to just 21 points and 345 yards of offense, including just 96 on the ground.
The Hoosiers came away victorious, 24-21. It was their first victory against Kirk Ferentz's squad since 2007.
The Hawkeyes jumped out to a 14-0 lead early on.
A 6 play, 71-yard drive on the Hawkeyes' second possession of the contest ended with a 24-yard touchdown pass from quarterback James Vandenberg to wide receiver Kevonte Martin-Manley.
Following Mike Meyer's kickoff, linebacker Christian Kirksey intercepted a Nate Sudfeld pass on the Hoosier's next play from scrimmage and returned it 18 yards for a touchdown.
The Hoosiers responded with a 45-yard Mitch Ewald field goal late in the first quarter.
"We got off to a great start and had a 14-3 lead," said Ferentz. "I think all-in-all, our guys played really hard and competed hard, but the bottom line is we didn't play well enough to win."
The score remained the same until late in the second quarter when Indiana quarterback Cameron Coffman hit Cody Latimer for a 15-yard touchdown pass with less than a minute remaining in the half.
Taking a 14-10 lead into the locker room at the half, the Hawkeyes had managed only 6 first downs to Indiana's 13. With less than a minute of advantage in time of possession, Indiana mustered 225 yards of total offense to the Hawkeye's 136.
Indiana received the ball to start the third quarter and went 3-and-out in less than a minute.
The Hawkeyes took over at their own 31 and marched down the field to the Indiana 12, when Vandenberg's pass was intercepted in the end zone by Antonio Marshall.
"That was just a throw that can't be made," said Vandenberg, who finished the day 21 of 34, for 249 yards. "[Marshall] played it really well and they had a better call than we did. That's just a ball that has to go out the back of the end zone. They had a better call than we did.
"We've just got to be able to take three there."
Indiana responded with a 7-play, 80-yard drive, capped off by Coffman's 6-yard touchdown pass to Latimer, his second of the game, to put Indiana up for the first time, 17-14.
Iowa went 3-and-out on its next possession and Indiana took over at its own 31. Coffman threw three incomplete passes and the Hawkeye defense thought it held, but a 15-yard personal foul on third down by James Morris kept the drive alive.
"I made a mistake, but you can't worry about the last play," said Morris. "You've got to worry about the next play."
Five plays later, a Morris tackle stalled the Hoosiers' drive at the Iowa 31.
A four-yard Damon Bullock touchdown run would give Iowa the lead, 21-17 with just over 12 minutes to play.
Bullock would end the day with 83 yards on 25 carries.
Indiana would take the lead for good with another touchdown pass from Coffman to Latimer, this time for 30 yards, with just under 11 minutes left to play.
Both Latimer and fellow receiver Kofi Hughes would both end the game with 100-plus yard performances.
Marshall and Adam Replogle would each have seven tackles and combine for 3 tackles for loss. They controlled the line of scrimmage for much of the day testing a rebuilt Iowa offensive line.
The Hawkeyes would have three more possessions, but all three would come up empty.
Heading into next week's home game against Purdue, the Hawkeyes now find themselves at 4-5 and 2-3 in conference play.
Facing the prospect of having to win two of the next three games to become bowl eligible, the team is quick to point out that their focus is not on postseason play.
"It's nice to go to a bowl and it gives you extra time to practice and develop young guys, but the reason you play the game is for the camaraderie and the brotherhood of your teammates," said Steve Bigach. "The game of football is about playing to gether as a team and a group of men coming together with a common goal."
Bigach stressed that he does not believe the team has given up. Rather, his concerns are more week-to-week.
"Personally, you go into every game expecting to win. If you don't, you're going to lose," he said.
"I told our guys from before the Big Ten season started that I thought we could win any game or lose any game on our schedule," said Ferentz. "We clearly have work to do right now, but I haven't changed my opinion. We aren't putting the flag up…I thought we improved this week, I thought we were a better football team today than a week ago, so that's our mode of operation. We are trying to improve."
After next week, Iowa travels to Michigan and returns to Kinnick Stadium for a season finale against Nebraska.

A shoplifting ring at the Walmart Superstore in Clarence was apparently broken up Monday, when state police charged four employees with stealing thousands of dollars by not ringing up merchandise or scamming customers who had gift cards.
State police said Tuesday that troopers arrested two people on grand larceny charges and two more on petit larceny charges, after a monthlong investigation by officials at the Walmart on Transit Road.
Walmart contacted state police Monday with evidence that several of their employees had been "underscanning" or "underringing" merchandise.
The four are accused of allowing accomplices to go through their checkout lines and leave the store without paying for numerous items worth an estimated $7,000 or more that were not scanned or rung up, police said.
On other occasions, the cashier would activate a gift card for a customer, keep it and then swap it with another card, leaving the unsuspecting customer to walk out of the store with a card that could not be used, police added.
The investigation is continuing, and more arrests are pending.
The four arrested:
• Evelyn C. Smith, 26, of Buffalo, who was charged with fourth-degree grand larceny. Smith is accused of underscanning at least seven times for a total of $2,600 worth of merchandise, police said.
Smith also is accused of going through the checkout line as a customer and leaving the store with roughly $1,600 worth of unpaid goods.
• Tacara Lawrence, 21, of Buffalo, also was charged with fourth-degree grand larceny for underscanning on at least four occasions and allowing accomplices to get away with roughly $2,500 in merchandise.
• Dewayne Harrell, 22, of Buffalo, who was charged with petit larceny. He's accused of stealing two gift cards totaling $95, when he activated the gift cards for two customers and then switched them with cards that had not been activated. Harrell kept the activated gift cards for himself, police said.
• Latasha M. Morrow, 19, of Buffalo, who was also charged with petit larceny.
Morrow is accused of leaving Walmart with about $280 worth of merchandise, which initially had been scanned then voided by one of the cashiers involved in the ring.

Russia Lawmaker Exits Amid Condo Storm
In Victory for Kremlin Critics, Parliament Ethics Chief Steps Down After Allegations He Failed to Disclose Miami Properties
MOSCOW—A founding member of Russia's ruling party resigned from Parliament on Wednesday, after opposition bloggers unearthed documents they said showed he owns waterfront properties in Florida that he didn't mention in his parliamentary asset declarations.
The resignation of Vladimir Pekhtin, who until last week served as the chairman of the lower house's ethics committee, offers a rare victory to Kremlin critics who allege that many officials use offshore wealth to lead hidden lives of luxury. It poses an embarrassment to the Kremlin, which has lately ratcheted up anti-Western rhetoric and vowed to crack down on capital flight.
Last week, prominent anti-Kremlin blogger Alexei Navalnyi posted several documents that he alleges show Mr. Pekhtin held stakes in two Miami Beach condominiums over the past half-decade. A search of Florida records by The Wall Street Journal turned up several of the same documents.
In 2008, Mr. Pekhtin was added to the deed of a bayfront condo unit that his son, Aleksey Pekhtin, bought in 2007 for $540,900, according to Miami-Dade County property records. In April 2012, the county's records show, the pair also bought a unit in Miami Beach's 1500 Ocean Drive Condominium, designed by architect Michael Graves, for $1.275 million.
Vladimir and Aleksey Pekhtin paid cash for the Ocean Drive property, via wire transfer, in the spring of 2012, according to Kohhann Yee, whom the documents list as the seller. In an interview Wednesday, Mr. Yee of Englewood Cliffs, N.J., who said he works in real estate, said the sale went through his attorney and that he never met the two men.
In Parliament on Wednesday, Vladimir Pekhtin said he was "clean before the law," calling the allegations a legal misunderstanding. Aleksey Pekhtin couldn't be located to comment.
While owning foreign real-estate isn't illegal in Russia, legislators are required by law to declare their property and income. The penalties for failing to do so aren't clear. Mr. Pekhtin declared in 2011 that he owned real estate in Russia but not abroad, according to his parliamentary Web page. It isn't clear whether he filled out a declaration for 2012.
The opposition allegations came as the Kremlin has launched a highly publicized drive to crack down on officials who keep their families and wealth abroad. In December, President Vladimir Putin called for a campaign of "deoffshorization" to lure back money held overseas by Russian companies and officials. This month, he sent a bill to Parliament that would ban officials and their families from holding money, stocks or bonds overseas.
On Dec. 28, Vladimir Pekhtin transferred full title of the Ocean Drive unit to his son for $100, according to Miami-Dade documents.
After the documents emerged last week, Mr. Pekhtin brushed off the affair as unimportant. But he asked to be temporarily relieved of his duties as chairman of the ethics committee of the lower house, or Duma, pending an official investigation. In an interview with the Izvestia newspaper, he said the reports were false, that the property belonged to his son and, in a response that has since been repeated across the blogosphere, that he had "practically no real estate overseas."
On Wednesday morning, Mr. Pekhtin made a surprise appearance in front of the Duma to announce he was relinquishing his seat. He said his move was a voluntary act to shield the party, United Russia, from scandal.
"There are obvious legal misunderstandings to be sorted out," said Mr. Pekhtin, who said he would travel to the U.S. to clear his name. "I am not going to allow anyone to defame the name of United Russia."
The resignation points up the shifting influence of Russia's opposition: While street protests have fizzled recently, activists have attempted to capitalize on crowdsourcing to reveal corruption among the ruling elite.
The documents were rooted out by a Russian physicist, Andrey Zayakin, who works at a university in Spain. In an interview, Mr. Zayakin confirmed his role and said he has devoted his spare time to public-record searches about the property of pro-Kremlin officials abroad.
The physicist conveyed his findings to Mr. Navalnyi, who published them on his website last week. Since their appearance, the documents have received broad play in Russian newspapers and online. Kremlin-controlled television, which typically ignores opposition attacks, also reported on them.
Mr. Pekhtin's speech was warmly applauded by United Russia members, who flocked to shake his hand on the floor of the Duma floor. Duma speaker Sergei Naryshkin, a longtime ally of Mr. Putin, extended "a big thank you for your honest and responsible action."
Opposition leaders were jubilant. "Pekhtin and others in United Russia just paid for their double standards, they dug themselves into this hole," said a posting from a Twitter account in the name of legislator Dmitry Gudkov. He made similar comments on Russian radio.
Mr. Navalnyi, the blogger who published the real-estate documents, promised more revelations soon about the property of members of United Russia, which gained a firm majority in Parliament after elections in December 2011 that were tainted by widespread allegations of vote fraud. Since then, the party has passed several laws cracking down on street demonstrations and curbing alleged meddling of Western governments in Russian society.
Referring to Mr. Pekhtin's exit, Mr. Navalnyi wrote: "He can move to move to Florida finally and live in peace without having to listen to any complaints."
Opposition members have also been focusing on the dissertations of party members and government officials, alleging that many of them are plagiarized. That has had little effect so far, although one United Russia deputy, Vladimir Burmatov, stepped down from his post as head of the education committee amid allegations that he had poached much of his dissertation on teaching methods from another published four years earlier at a university in Bryansk.
Mr. Burmatov denies he plagiarized the paper. He said he would let a governing body of education officials judge whether any parts of it were copied.

Three Western New York land trusts, including two in Erie County, have received more than $100,000 in grants from the state department of Environmental Conservation.
The grants are part of $1.4 million distributed under the Conservation Partnership Program.
Grassroots Gardens of Buffalo will receive $49,000 over two years, allowing the group to hire a second full-time employee and the first dedicated program manager in its 21-year history. The new hire will enable the group to expand its community outreach and education programs, improve garden stewardship and take a proactive approach as an emerging urban land trust.
The group currently supports 70 community gardens on lots that were vacant and abandoned in Buffalo.
The Western New York Land Conservancy received two grants that will help it to gain national accreditation. With a $25,000 grant, the conservancy will hire a temporary project coordinator to review compliance with the standards and practices of the national Land Trust Alliance.
"When we're accredited, then we have to be rigorous in adhering to those standards," said Jajean Rose-Burney, development coordinator of the conservancy. "It also is sort of a stamp of approval."
The conservancy will use a $15,000 grant to update its website to inform and attract landowners, volunteers, donors and conservation partners in its eight-county service area.
The Chautauqua Watershed Conservancy in Jamestown will be receiving $15,000 to support its efforts to bring its lands management program into compliance with national standards and practices by surveying 11 properties and developing updated management plans for six properties.
The New York State Conservation Partnership Program is a public-private partnership providing competitive matching grants for qualified land trusts throughout the state for building land trust capacity and increasing the pace and quality of conservation.
The Land Trust Alliance, a national conservation group, administers the Conservation Partnership Program in coordination with the DEC. The grants, funded through the state's Environmental Protection Fund, will be matched by $1.3 million in private and local funding.
"The Conservation Partnership Program is unique in the nation," DEC Commissioner Joe Martens said. "The state's investment in building land trust capacity multiplies several times in benefits to local communities, improving both the local economy and environment."
