National Fuel Gas Co.'s rates will stay the same in the coming months, but customers could be in line for a refund – and potentially a rate cut – if state regulators later determine that the Amherst-based energy company is charging too much.
The state Public Service Commission, over the objections of National Fuel, on Thursday approved a series of temporary rates for the utility that will freeze its delivery charges while the PSC conducts a broader review of its rates that could take nearly a year to complete.
But because National Fuel's earnings from its New York utility business have been significantly higher than the targets set by the commission in its rate plan that took effect at the beginning of 2008, the PSC also took the unusual step of making the company liable for refunding a portion of those delivery charges if the review finds that its rates going forward were too high.
"It provides protection for ratepayers," said PSC Chairman Garry A. Brown. "We'll do an examination. We'll find out" if National Fuel's rates are higher than they need to be to provide "safe and adequate service."
If the commission determines that National Fuel has been earning more than it should – and that it is likely to keep doing so in the future under its existing rates – the PSC could lower the company's delivery charges and order the utility to refund the difference between the current rates and the new rates dating back to today.
National Fuel officials argued that the company is being penalized for doing a good job running its New York utility business, cutting costs and improving the efficiency of its operations while freezing the rates it has charged its customers since the beginning of 2008. The company has reduced its operating and maintenance costs by about 6 percent, or $10 million, since 2008.
"The level of earnings that National Fuel has experienced were reasonable and due entirely to its cost-cutting and productivity efforts," said Karen L. Merkel, a National Fuel spokeswoman. "If utilities had no opportunity to earn more from cutting costs, or if those earnings actually achieved were taken away, utilities would have no incentive to cut costs or provide quality service."
While PSC commissioners praised National Fuel for doing a good job running its utility business even while reducing its operating costs, the commission's staff estimated that National Fuel could be overcharging its 516,000 customers in Western New York by "hundreds of thousands of dollars" during each of the summer months, when natural gas use is at its lowest. Over the course of a full year, the PSC staff estimated that the overcharges could top $10 million.
In late March, National Fuel proposed a rate plan that would freeze its delivery charges for three more years, while instituting a new system that would let it earn a slightly higher return from its utility operations through a program to split any earnings beyond its target with its customers.
Instead, the commission bypassed that proposal in favor of the temporary rates and the more thorough examination of National Fuel's rate structure. Even so, PSC commissioners Thursday spoke in favor of including a mechanism to share earnings above a certain target between customers and ratepayers in whatever rate plan is developed under the current proceedings. National Fuel is the only major electric or natural gas utility in the state without an earnings sharing mechanism in its rate plan.
Even if the PSC eventually decides that National Fuel has been overcharging customers during the time it was operating under the temporary rate structure, any refunds collected from the company may not flow directly to consumers, Brown warned.
Instead, the refund could be used to fund other initiatives or cover other liabilities that the company is facing. National Fuel, for instance, stands to collect more than $35 million in expenses from ratepayers in the future to cover benefits for retirees and site-improvement costs that it has absorbed under the current rate plan.
At the center of the issue is just how much National Fuel's utility earnings are exceeding the profitability target included in its current rate plan, and while both sides differ on how high the utility's earnings have been, they agree that they have been comfortably more than the benchmark.
Last year, National Fuel earned a return equal to 12.4 percent of its equity, according to the PSC staff's calculations. National Fuel, using a slightly different method, contends that it earned 11.3 percent on its equity, easily topping its 9.1 percent earnings target.
This year, the PSC's staff estimates that the company will earn an 11.1 percent return, while National Fuel projects that its earnings will be 9.2 percent, barely higher than its targeted rate of return.
PSC Commissioner Gregg C. Sayre urged the commission's staff and National Fuel executives to work together to try to develop a mutually acceptable rate agreement, which would avoid the agency's costly, nearly yearlong process of developing a utility rate plan.

There goes the penny. Not ours, theirs. Canada is discontinuing the penny coin, no longer distributing them to businesses and banks. With that, prices will be rounded up or down to the nearest nickel. Canadians – at least the ones our reporters spoke to – are unworried. And why should they be? It costs more to make a penny than the coin is worth and, given that virtually nothing these days costs less than a nickel, why not drop it?
Americans, don't worry. If past is prologue, we will have our penny for generations to come. Canada dropped Saturday mail service in 1969; we still have ours. Canada went metric in the 1970s; we didn't, even though that was the plan. Canada has had national health insurance for decades. No, our penny is safe. No matter what it costs.
The nation is on a financially perilous path. Republicans and Democrats barely speak to one another. Winter 2013 is pounding the Northeast. And now, as if that weren't bad enough, Monopoly no longer has the iron token for its game board. It's gone. In its place is a cat.
It's been hard to work up much fury over Hasbro's decision to fire the iron and hire Garfield. The iron looked old-fashioned anyway – where was the button for the sprayer? – and it won't be missed. Besides, with everything else happening in the world, who has time to worry about stuff like this?
Of course, if they'd gotten rid of the dog, that would be different.
Fisher-Price and its corporate parent, Mattel, have been delighting generations of children with their educational and just plain fun toys. Now the toymakers will be helping future generations of children get well, thanks to a $3 million gift to fund a respite area at the new John R. Oishei Children's Hospital to be built on the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus.

Ranked among the nation's most integrated healthcare systems, Community Health Network is Central Indiana's leader in providing convenient access to exceptional healthcare services, where and when patients need them—in hospitals, health pavilions, workplaces, schools and homes.
Here are some of the latest health and medical news developments, compiled by the editors of HealthDay:
Non-Hormonal Drugs for Hot Flashes Rejected by FDA Panel
Two drugs being proposed as alternatives to hormones to treat hot flashes in menopausal women were rejected Monday by a U.S. Food and Drug Administration advisory panel.
The committee of outside experts voted 12 to 2 against approving Depomed's extended-release gabapentin and voted 10 to 4 against approving a low-dose formulation of the antidepressant paroxetine developed by Noven Pharmaceuticals, The New York Times reported.
The FDA typically follows the recommendations of its advisory panels.
There are no FDA-approved nonhormonal treatments for menopause-related hot flashes and the committee acknowledged the need for new drugs. However, they said the drugs' risks outweighed their benefit. Research showed that the drugs reduced the number of hot flashes by only one a day compared to a placebo, The Times reported.
Energy Drink Co. Says Teen's Death Not Caused by Caffeine Toxicity
There is no evidence to link a 14-year-old girl's death with caffeine toxicity, according to a group of doctors hired by Monster Beverage Corp.
The energy drink maker is facing a lawsuit related to the death of Anais Fournier, who died from cardiac arrest in December 2011 after drinking two 24-ounce cans of Monster energy drinks within 24 hours, the Wall Street Journal reported.
Her family has sued Monster Beverage Corp., blaming the girl's death on the energy drinks.
On Monday, the company said it had hired heart specialists and other medical experts to examine the girl's medical records. They found no evidence to support the Maryland Medical Examiner's report of "caffeine toxicity" or any connection between her death and the consumption of the energy drinks, WSJ reported.
A jury will determine Monster's accountability in the case, "not doctors paid by billion dollar corporations to attend press conferences," said Kevin Goldberg, a lawyer representing Anais Fournier's family.
Candy Industry Exec Speaks Out Against Obesity
Candy makers need to develop ways to tackle the childhood obesity crisis before they are forced to by the government, the president of Mars Chocolate in North America reportedly urged in a speech at last week's National Confectioners Association meeting in Miami.
According to ABC News, the candy trade publication Confectionary News reported that Debra Sandler said: "If we don't [act], I worry that someone else will do it for us. ... We need the whole industry to step up. ... We are not judged by the leaders of the category but by those who do not take responsibility for change."
Candy accounts for only 2 percent of calories in the average American diet, but candy makers shouldn't use that as an excuse to avoid the issue, Sandler warned. She said candy makers need to do things such as reformulate recipes to lower their products' calorie levels and improve nutrition, and display calorie content more prominently on the front of packaging.
Sandler's remarks were praised by anti-obesity campaigners.
"Mars has been making an effort to be more responsible in how they market candy. It's good to see them calling on their colleagues to do the same," said Margo Wootan, director of nutrition policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest, told ABC News. The watchdog group has often criticized large food companies.
Each year, Americans consume more than 7.7 billion pounds of candy a year, or about 25 pounds per person, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. About 60 percent of that is chocolate.

Jerry Oates plans to give up six hours of his upcoming weekend to try to sell a house or two.
This afternoon, he will hold forth at a "top dollar" $649,900 home in Mount Pleasant. He will show a $289,900 house in Hanahan on Sunday 2-5 p.m.
Oates, a Realtor with AgentOwned Realty, will be participating in The Post and Courier's Fall Tour of Homes.
The agent acknowledges he's ambivalent about open houses: They don't typically lead to sales. But he likes The Post and Courier tour.
"It was good timing," he says.
The Post and Courier open houses draw traffic in part because the newspaper will give away a $100 American Express gift card to "one lucky person" touring the homes this weekend, he says.
Oates' two residences are among 48 homes for sale that will be open to the public today and Sunday afternoons as part of The Post and Courier's fall homes tour.
Residences range in price from the low $200,000s to nearly $1 million. Homes will open east of the Cooper and in West Ashley, on James and Johns islands and in Hanahan, North Charleston, Summerville and Wando/Cainhoy to name a few.
Open houses could be considered "old school" in terms of methods to market a home. They don't require a smart phone or social media.
At the same time, there aren't any hindrances to open houses embracing technology. And in terms of popularity, they seem in general much more "new school." While agents such as Oates say they've held open houses where only one person showed up, the events can draw decent crowds and once in a while lead to sales.
According to the National Association of Realtors, 45 percent of home buyers used an open house as a source in their home search process in 2012.
Among other NAR information concerning open houses:
• Home buyers in the South are more likely to find a residence through an open house than purchasers in the West, Midwest and Northeast.
• First-time home buyers are more likely to find homes through open houses than repeat buyers.
• House hunters aged 45-64 are most likely to find a home via an open house, besting shoppers aged 25-44 and 18-24.
• New-home buyers are more likely to use open houses than purchasers of existing houses.
• Couples, either married or unmarried, are more likely to walk through an open house than single buyers.
• Buyers who use a language other than English in a home are most likely to use open houses in the United States.
• Home shoppers who were not born in the U.S. are more likely to use open houses than people who were born here.
Meanwhile, at least some Charleston area agents intend to continue employing open houses as one of their marketing tools.
Oates says he holds open houses occasionally. He opened the Mount Pleasant house – located in the Oakhaven neighborhood – four weeks ago and attracted 12 house hunters.
"Sellers kind of expect it," he says.
Even if the results are spotty, Oates says, "I still do them. I like to do them."
To see more information on each of the 48 homes that will be open, check out the Open House pages in the Saturday Real Estate section.

Maryland generates more than 24,000 jobs since August 2011
BALTIMORE, MD (October 19, 2012) -Just days after Governor O'Malley's announcement of
the Unemployment Insurance tax cut for Maryland businesses, more good news for Marylanders
has now been released. The U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS)
released state jobs and unemployment data earlier today. According to the preliminary
survey data, Maryland gained 9,800 jobs during September, topping last year's August to
September gain of 9,500. This marks the largest gain for the month since 2003. The private
sector gained 9,600 jobs, accounting for 98 percent of the monthly upturn. The preliminary
jobs estimate for August showed an increase of 1,400 jobs. Today's revised numbers show we
actually gained 2,600 jobs.
According to the BLS survey, Maryland's preliminary unemployment rate dropped two
tenths of a percentage point to 6.9 percent. August's unemployment rate remained unchanged
with revision and held steady at 7.1 percent.
"Maryland continues to make progress toward recovery. We've created 25,500 jobs in the
last year and 2,200 fewer Marylanders have filed new unemployment insurance claims," said
Maryland Labor Secretary Leonard Howie. "Both this month's jobs numbers and our unemployment
insurance tax cut for Maryland employers reflect Governor O'Malley's investments in protecting
our workforce and positioning our state to compete effectively in the New Economy. Together,
we're working to broaden Maryland's workforce as we foster an environment where businesses
can continue to grow and create more jobs."
Maryland's most noteworthy September gains were in Professional and Business Services,
which added 4,100 jobs and Trade/Transportation/Warehousing and Utilities, which gained
2,000 jobs. The Education/Health Care and Social Assistance sector added 1,600 jobs
over-the-month, a gain almost evenly split between component industries. The Natural
Resources/Mining/Construction sector added 1,300 jobs, with gains among special trade
contracting providing the growth impetus.
Secretary Howie will brief the media on the September 2012 jobs report during a
conference call at noon today.

Welcome to the Department of International Business
A Description of the Major
Our Start: The International Business Program was instituted in 1978 by the College of Business. Since inception, the program has grown into one of the most reputable programs in the East. It is especially known for its broad-based orientation and high level of education attained by its graduates. The program offers students a thorough grounding in business, foreign culture and language.
Our Goal: Since modern enterprises - governmental, nonprofit, business - operate in a global environment, success is difficult for those who are unaware of events and cultures outside their own. The program's goal is to equip students with the ability to work comfortably in more than one corner of the global marketplace.
The Classes: International business is more than a different discipline - it is a different perspective. This definition of the program requires it to be interdisciplinary. An international business student will not take upper-level classes from one isolated department, but, rather, the international courses from all the business disciplines. International business is a Bachelor of Business Administration degree awarded by the College of Business. However, major requirements go beyond the college to the departments of political science, geographic information science, sociology, anthropology and foreign languages and literatures.
For Graduation: In addition to a thorough foundation in business, the program stresses the need for graduates to function well in a foreign environment. Competency in a second language and thorough exposure to a chosen second culture are graduation requirements. Study abroad or a one semester international internship is required and must be integrated into your schedule. The requirements of the major are designed to allow you to choose a concentration in finance or marketing. However, some international business majors also declare another major, such as their foreign language or an additional College of Business discipline.

Good quality Review by Charmaine
Price Value Quality
The tray is good quality. While it doesn't break out the ice cubes as neatly as a plastic tray might, it still works well. My only complaint is that you have to break out all the cubes at once. We then leave all the cubes loose in the tray in the freezer. (Posted on 6/18/10)Would you recommend this product to a friend? Yes

Far more than in any other meet, intangibles can play a disproportionate role in the final results of the conference championship. Although latent, such personal issues as team and individual expectations, pre-existing injuries, academic stress, illness, interpersonal relations, and an emotional low can weigh more heavily on a runner's mind than the race itself. On the other hand, if a runner can find a way to run relaxed, his/her footsteps can, instead, lead him/her to great successes.
For Stetson, this Atlantic Sun Conference Championship--the first for some, but the last for others--became an epic struggle for self-fulfillment.
In the last weeks leading up to the championship, members of the women's team suffered injuries that limited practice for three of their top five finishers, and completely sidelined their #6 runner, Emily Nolan. Even worse, what prior setbacks didn't do to their spirits, the race(s) did. As a team, they averaged 40 seconds slower than in their last 5K.
Freshman Amanda Spring, who was nursing an injury, did her very best, and came in first on her team for the sixth time (19:43.91). Sami Hicks, usually the team's second runner, re-injured her hip in a final sprint, and barely made it across the finish line (20:10.57).
"I'm still in a lot of pain," she e-mailed me two days later. "I did my best in the race. I pushed as much as I could. (Right now) I'm just trying to put it behind me, and focus on getting healthy."
Passing Hicks in the final yards, and finishing second on the team, was Adrienne DeVita (20:07.74). DeVita was—as she had been all season long—yet again rock-solid.
A steady #4 performer, Daniella Godenzi-Moreno, just couldn't seem to get on track in this race, and finished last (21:50.55), two and a half minutes slower than her most recent 5K.
"I honestly don't know what happened," she said. "I was hyped for the race, and was aiming for a PR of 19:30. I wanted to help my team and Sabrina to have a great end to the season. For some reason I couldn't make myself go faster; my body was dead and I have no clue why, because I rested well. I hope that never happens again...I will keep working hard and try to forget about that race because it is upsetting to me."
Running through her injury, senior, and team captain, Sabrina Guzsvany (20:28.83) finished as the fourth Hatter. Although she ran injured most of the season, she also met her primary goal of being a top-five scorer for her team.
"Percy Warner is a beautiful park," Sabrina said, "and the course was really great! It had hills that…might be considered mountainous, but I actually didn't mind them. The weather was great and provided us with perfect racing conditions.
"The women's team might not have performed to their full potential, but that's okay. Our season was still VERY successful. We've improved so much during my time here at Stetson. Although I'm graduating, I'm beyond excited to see what this talented group of women will achieve in upcoming seasons!"
Next came Jessica Cosgrove (20:41.45), Trixi Menge (20:48.84), Clarissa Consol (21:06.49), Shelby Block (21:45:77) and Godenzi-Moreno. The team finished tenth.
On the men's side, the general rule seemed to be tired legs among the front runners, but PRs for four others.
Doubtless, for teammates (Sr.) Andrew Epifanio and (Fr.) Joseph Beery, this race symbolized the final chapter in a mutually beneficial relationship that had begun even before the first day of practice. All summer long, prior to meeting on campus, they compared and traded training schedules. Then, starting in August, they paced each other through every practice and race, hoping to do the same in the season finale.
So far this season, in both time trials and six races--as he had in all of the (previous) 26 races in which he ran for Stetson from 2010 to 2013--Epifanio has finished first for the team. Beery, in 2013, finished second in all his races.
In this last meet of the year, however, Joe Beery ran the better race and finished first on the team. Andrew, having what could best be described as a "bad day"—he ran a minute slower than he has all season--finished next. Although both their times were well off their usual pace, what better season-ending story could there be? Joe, all year the understudy, had switched places with the team's outgoing senior captain, and former pace-setter.
It was the one race that will undoubtedly be long remembered by both. Not only was this a sublime ending for their relationship, but no doubt cemented that bond. And, in his last race of 2013, Joe Beery had started his own "streak." To be continued?
"Andrew and I went out in the first mile in 5:15," Beery explained afterwards, "which was the game plan. But he was unable to hold on. I don't know what happened, but it might have been because of the hills. We don't train on hills.
"The hills took more out of me than I anticipated. I guess I've been out of Ohio (his home state) too long. There are barely any hills in Florida. But this"—Percy Warner Park—"is like a basic, mid-western course. It's good to be back on a course with dirt—instead of sand—and trees—instead of palms.
"I think (for me) it was a successful race. All in all, I left it all out there."
"Beery ran a very strong, and mentally tough race," affirmed Epifanio, "and I'm very proud of the way he pushed through the struggle of the run. He's been a great partner throughout the season, and his dedication has been admirable. He definitely helped me push my own training limits. I'm actually quite pleased to be able to pass off my first varsity position to him. He has a lot of talent, and with his work ethic, shows a lot of promise."
In so saying, Epifanio has thus passed the torch on to Beery.
"I'm not sure I'm ready to be a leader in the literal sense," Beery suggested, "but maybe I can lead by setting an example, or perhaps by giving advice when asked for it. I don't want to initiate leadership, or claim it. My definition of a leader is one who sets an example, and is there to lean on."
Joe Beery finished in 27:56.52; Andrew Epifanio in 28:30.70. Third for the team was Andrew Townes, who, in running a 29:10.81, set one of four Stetson PRs.
"I've been training hard," he said afterwards. "I think the two-a-days have helped, and then tapering into more reasonable mileage the last couple of weeks.
"I was definitely psyched before the race," Townes continued. "I went out fast, and ran a 5:20 first mile. At about the three mile mark, I noticed three green jerseys ahead of me. I assumed that they were from JU, and we wanted to beat them. By the fourth mile, I had caught two of them. The third guy and I went neck-and-neck, but he beat me at the end."
Interestingly, "little victories" by Beery (who outran JU's first runner by one place), Townes (who finished one place ahead of JU's fourth runner) and Kyle Meerdo (outsprinting JU's fifth runner), together helped the team to tie Jacksonville (at 273 points). Meerdo, moreover, in sixth—one place ahead of JU's fifth finisher—gained an advantage for Stetson, resulting in an eighth place win over Jacksonville (which was 9th). In all, members of the two teams finished in the 12 consecutive spots between 48th and 62nd place.
Next for Stetson, in order, were Cody Malloy (30:02), Ryan Hodgins (30:24.21), Kyle Meerdo (30:35.27), and Jeremy Butler (31:33). Behind them, and setting personal bests—along with Kyle—were Austyn Finnk (32:59), and James Welch III (33:33.58).
Kyle: "I've been dealing with injuries all season, and had to take it easy for a few races. I was finally, fully healthy for Conference. I prepared the best I could, and tapering really helped. Andrew (Epifanio) got me into the mindset that I had the capability to achieve an easy goal of 30:45, but that I might also get a 30:30. I always run better when I get my nerves (under control) the night before, so I did not stress at the race. I also run well when it is cold.
"I took out the first mile a few seconds faster than I had planned, and without realizing it, my second and third were slower (than expected). I decided to race the last two miles; my last mile turned out to be the fastest. Ryan (Hodginson) was right in my sights. I wanted to catch up to him and push him to help our team out. Also the Jacksonville kid coming from behind helped push me more. I never let a kid pass me at the finish before, and was not going to start at this race. I gave it all I had, and it turned out to be a PR."
Austyn: "On race day I had a lot of adrenaline, and a sense that it was going to be a good day. At the start line I drew the usual Jewish star into the ground (which I did for every race this season), and then I knew I was going to PR. During the race, the course still had that fast feel, at least for me, and I carried that momentum for the entire race. The cold didn't affect me at all and the only thing that slowed me down a little was the small hilly area back in the forest, otherwise I really enjoyed the course. I'm hoping I can build on this PR and do even better next season."
James: "I had prepared harder for this race than any other. I was ready, but nervous. I had two goals: to beat Austyn and to get a PR. Well, I followed Austyn the whole time, but never passed him. The course was rough, and I just knew I had to finish, and I did. I collapsed at the finish and could not breathe. I had to be carried to the team "camp," but it was an absolute honor, and blessing, to run in conference."
This meet concludes the 2013 Stetson cross country season. While it didn't end as the landmark season that many hoped it would be, it will be remembered as a step in the right direction.

Fonda never punished for unforgivable deeds
Jane Fonda has "head-turning style"? How soon people forget that Fonda, "Hanoi Jane," collaborated with North Vietnam, an act of blatant treason. Her actions there, a matter of public record, brought undue suffering and even death to U.S. POWs. Instead of showing her in a Stella McCartney fashion original, Fonda should be in orange coveralls. Sad to say that anti-war feelings and activists, certain media sources and influential Hollywood honchos allowed her to go unpunished for unforgivable acts.

The European Scout Region is strategically managed by the Regional Scout Committee, which is elected by the Regional Scout Conference which is the general assembly and attended by delegations from all 41 member National Scout Organisations in the Region.
Regional Conference
Every three years, the Region organises a Regional Conference to fulfil its constitutional obligations, to report back on the actions taken in the previous years, in particular those undertaken in relation to objectives set in the Regional Scout Plan. The Conference also elects the Regional Scout Committee and facilitates networking and sharing among all 41 National Scout Organisations.
The specific role of the Regional Conference is identified in the Regional Constitution:
- To further the Scout Movement within the Region by promoting the kindred spirit of cooperation and mutual assistance among Scout organisations within the Region.
- To foster the idea of European citizenship, based on the consciousness of a common heritage and destiny.
- To develop cooperation among European youth.
- To exercise other functions resulting from the Regional Constitution and other laws governing the Region.
- To ensure the proper implementation of the decisions and policies laid down by the World Organization of the Scout Movement which affect the European Region.
The next European Regional Scout Conference will take place in Norway in 2016. For more information, please visit the event site when available.
Regional Committee
The Regional Committee is made up of six volunteer members, elected for a three-year term.
An appointed volunteer serves as treasurer and the director of the Regional Office is the Committee's secretary. The Regional Committee meets three times a year. In addition, there are other meetings to support the work of the Region.
The specific role of the European Scout Committee is identified in the Regional Constitution:
- To exercise such functions as are provided for in the Regional Constitution.
- To put into effect the resolutions of the Regional Conference and to fulfil any duty that the Conference may assign to it.
- To act as an advisory body to the World Committee.
- To act as an advisory body for member organisations in the Region requiring advice and assistance.
For a list of current Committee Members, please click here.
Regional Scout Plan
The Regional Scout Plan is the Region's strategy. It is developed with input from National Scout Organisations and National Scout Associations, which contribute to identifying priority areas of work, as well as relevant activities and objectives for the Region. The Plan is approved by the Regional Conference and implemented by the Regional Committee, with support by working groups, project teams and the Regional Office. The plan is focused on two areas of work:
1) Youth Empowerment
This means to give responsibility to young people at an early stage in life. Already as Cub Scouts, we can give the scouts the opportunity to develop themselves through gradually increased responsibility in the patrol and troop from taking care of the shopping for a hike to ultimately becoming the CEO of a World Scout Jamboree. This mind-¬set of development through trust and trying activities in practice is the culture that should be mainstreamed in all Scouting especially through the key principles:
- Youth to Youth.
- Youth leading Youth.
- Youth supported by adults.
- Learning by Doing.
2) Diversity & Inclusion
Organisations need to be supported in addressing key challenges of their communities related to migration, diversity and social inclusion. Scouting is inclusive, respecting differences in gender, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, disability. Our young and adult volunteers are powerful agents of social change in the world; their support is essential for their engagement in these issues. Adapting their non-formal educational programmes to be able to provide all young people with meaningful opportunities, reaching out to young people from socially excluded and culturally diverse backgrounds will be the main issues that will be tackled by the group.
Current Regional Scout Plan is available in English (French version will be published soon).
Core Services, Working Groups and Project Teams
A number of volunteers from National Scout Organisations support the Regional Committee in achieving the objectives set by the Regional Scout Plan.
Our Core Services will continue to underpin the work done in Europe. Where appropriate we intend to work in partnership with others to achieve specific objectives. Importantly, we see our work with the other five regions of WOSM as becoming increasingly meaningful by seeking out opportunities to collaborate together in the fields (Core Services) of:
- Educational Methods,
- Organisational Development
- External Relations and Funding.

PITTSBURGH - The pre-game buzz was all about the lack of buzz.
It was the Baltimore Ravens against the Pittsburgh Steelers, but this one was different.
No Ray Lewis, no Ed Reed. No James Harrison, either.

Emmanuel Sanders' kickoff return late put the Steelers in position to win the game.
Mirror photo by J.D. Cavrich
Le'Veon Bell rushes for a few of his 93 yards against the Ravens' defense.
Beyond that, there was the issue that the teams were staring up at the Cincinnati Bengals and (gasp!) Cleveland Browns in the AFC North standings.
So one of the NFL's most intense rivalries was going to be diminished by having too many players unfamiliar with the history and teams carrying the weight of mediocre records - 3-3 for the Super Bowl champion Ravens, 1-4 for the Steelers.
As so often happens, the pre-game buzz had little to do with the game.
It was the Ravens and Steelers just the way you'd expect it: Hard-hitting, noisy and a game decided by a slim margin on the game's last play.
Shaun Suisham's 42-yard field goal gave the Steelers the 19-16 victory at Heinz Field, and allowed them to take another step out of the 0-4 hole they dug to start this season.
"Trying to remain relevant," was the way coach Mike Tomlin put it, and that was a pretty effective way to phrase it.
Having already lost a pair of games they could have been expected to win (vs. Tennessee and Minnesota), you never know what the expect in the NFL.
But it's encouraging that the Steelers have clearly improved in the last two weeks against the New York Jets and Ravens.
Sunday's game was a breakthrough for Le'Veon Bell, the second-round draft pick who is now expected to carry the load at a weak running back position.
Bell ran for 93 yards, and averaged just under five yards per carry. It wasn't just what he did, it was the way he did it.
On one first half play, he bumped into the pile, bounced off, cut to the right and gained eight yards on a play that appeared to be headed nowhere.
Bell lined up behind center on a couple of wildcat formations, a new wrinkle that could manifest itself more significantly as the season progresses.
He looked comfortable, taking time to wait for openings to develop, reading what was in front of him and maximizing the opportunities.
In short, Bell looked like a legitimate NFL running back, something the Steelers have lacked so far this season.
The Steelers defense held the Ravens to a single touchdown, and controlled Ray Rice. True, Rice hasn't been himself as he works his back from an injury, but lesser backs were having success against the Steelers earlier.
The Steelers still have too many flaws. Suisham's efficiency is a plus, but they're too reliant on him for points. The lack of a pass rush is troubling, and so is the inability to generate takeaways.
But there are no perfect teams in the NFL, and the Steelers have won two straight games, something that didn't seem likely a few weeks ago.
That they were able to do it against Baltimore makes it more interesting. Although a lot of players don't have much experience in the rivalry, it doesn't take long to get up to speed.
"It was a good game," Bell said. "Definitely a lot of hard hitting and a lot of trash talk. But that's the type of player I am. It felt good to be out there."
Even better to win, and take another step toward relevance.

President is a hypocrite-in-chief
To the editor:
I would like to take a minute to recap some of the lunacy that has surrounded the gun control debate the past few weeks. On Jan. 16 President Obama stated: "If there is even one thing we can do to reduce this violence, if there is even one life that can be saved, then we've got an obligation to try."
Really? Representative Steve King of Iowa; Chairman of the Immigration, Citizenship, Refugees, Border Security, and International Law committee has stated on numerous occasions that an average 25 Americans are killed by illegal aliens every day (about evenly split between motor vehicle accidents and outright murder). Information published by the Justice Department's National Gang Intelligence Center states up to 80 percent of crime in the U.S. is committed by gangs, mostly comprised of illegal aliens.
In July 2010, President Barack Obama, along with the Justice Department, filed a lawsuit against the state of Arizona for passing an immigration law that merely authorized state officials to enforce federal immigration laws. If that was difficult to believe, let me explain.
The Obama administration refuses to enforce federal immigration laws. Obama refuses to close our southern border. The carnage and cost of this Obama administration policy was too much for the state of Arizona to endure, thus they passed a state law that emulated federal law empowering state officials to do what the feds refuse to do.
So what was the response from Obama, to bring suit against Arizona to stop them from enforcing federal immigration laws. The result of this Obama policy is more deaths every day of the year than occurred at the Sandy Hook elementary school. What was that again Mr. Obama?: "If there is even one thing we can do to reduce this violence." You shouldn't need to be the smartest guy on the planet, like the Obamunists claim, to figure this out. How about closing the southern border and deporting all the illegal aliens! What is it about the word "illegal" that Obama does not understand?
On Jan. 14, President Obama stated: "My starting point is not to focus on the politics my starting point is to focus on what makes sense, what works, what should we be doing to make sure that our children are safe that we are reducing the incidence of gun violence."
On Dec. 11, 2012, the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals found Illinois' firearms laws to be unconstitutional. This is on the heels of the United States Supreme Court in McDonald v. City of Chicago finding Chicago's ban on guns to be unconstitutional. Illinois / Chicago have the strictest firearm's laws in the land, so much so they went beyond the boundaries of the Constitution. So Mr. Obama, how are those violations of the Second Amendment working for you?
Do you happen to know what the murder capital of America is with 532 murders? If you guessed Chicago go to the head of the class. Obama demagogues focusing on what makes sense, what works and then totally ignores all the evidence that gun control only creates a nation of defenseless victims. You just can't make this stuff up!
Obama says he is not focusing on politics. If this is true, which it isn't, it would be a first for Obama. Everything he does is to promote his political agenda. This current gun control fight is no different. He is attempting to mask his real objectives, the systematic elimination of firearms in America, with this pseudo-concern for what he calls an increase in violent crime. Obama should know that since 1993, the violent crime rate has decreased by almost 50 percent and is lowest in the states with the least stringent gun laws.
In fact, a recent study by the Cato Institute found that the states that have "shall issue" laws allowing private citizens to carry concealed weapons have, on average, a 24 percent lower violent crime rate, a 19 percent lower murder rate and a 39 percent lower robbery rate than states that restrict concealed weapons. Mr. Obama, let me make this simple for you. The only realistic way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. If you still refuse to believe this, watch this YouTube video of a woman, Suzanna Gratia Hupp, who watched her family be systematically executed because politicians had restricted her right of self-defense: www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1u0Byq5Qis
If Obama really wanted to do something to stop these senseless multiple shootings, he would enforce the Second Amendment and strike down every state and local statute that restricts law abiding American citizen's right to keep and bear arms. Oh, that's right, the Supreme Court has already struck down those laws. Obama just refuses to recognize it.
Of course Obama has no intention of supporting the Constitution or enforcing immigration laws. They do not fit into his vision of transforming America away from the vision of the Founding Fathers. During a commencement speech at Barnard College, Obama took the opportunity to trash the Constitution, stating how it was flawed. Mr. Obama, you took an oath to preserve, protect and defend the very document you continually degrade. Your lack of respect of our founding does not relieve you of the duty to fulfill your oath and enforce the laws of the land. It is no wonder if you Google "Obama ignores rule of law" you get thousands of hits. How did this clown, let me apologize in advance if by association I've offended any clowns or those with big ears, get reelected?
What Obama is currently attempting to perpetrate on the American people is the very tyranny that the Second Amendment was designed to guard against. The fact that we the people are not marching on Washington, with the guns that for the time being are still legal, in a demonstration of the true meaning and purpose of the Second Amendment is shameful. The founders would be appalled at our complacency allowing these politicians to trample our rights.
Thomas Jefferson stated, "Honor, justice, and humanity, forbid us tamely to surrender that freedom which we received from our gallant ancestors, and which our innocent posterity have a right to receive from us."
If we sit by idly while our freedom slips through our fingers, we deserve what we get, but our children and grandchildren deserve better. Our parents and grandparents were the greatest generation, if we allow this to happen on our watch, we will go down in history as the most pathetic generation.
Jack Loesch,
Clarifications from the USDA
To the editor:
Few things are as important to the health and well-being of a community as access to clean, safe drinking water. A modern, scalable water delivery and treatment system also helps communities grow by attracting new businesses and jobs to the area.
As state director of the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture's Ohio office of Rural Development, I was interested to read Acting City Manager and Finance Director Mike Harold recently addressed the Columbiana City Council ("Columbiana residents likely face big water rate hike" Jan. 25, 2013) with regard to a proposed water treatment plant improvement project. The following points of clarification are necessary:
We did not "propose" rate increases. USDA has neither the inclination nor the legal authority to do so. In the normal course of business, we provide applicants with possible repayment scenarios. One such option might include employing rate increases. Applicants are free to determine how to repay USDA Rural Development loans and also are under no obligation to accept a loan or loan guarantee in the first place.
USDA Rural Development was approached by the city of Columbiana with regards to this project which would, among other things, replace parts of a century-old water system. Rural Development did not in any way solicit Columbiana. Rather, we gladly responded to a request for help. Our sole mission is to improve the quality of rural Ohioans' lives, and it is our privilege to partner with small towns from across the state in so doing.
The project also includes a $4,090,000 grant representing nearly 30 percent of the project total. Nowhere in the article is this mentioned. Grants of this magnitude have become rare under recent federal budget cycles.
The 40-year loan, obligated in April 2012, actually features a 2- rather than 0-percent interest rate; still a historic low.
Rural Development's Water and Environmental Programs are designed to provide loans, grants and loan guarantees for drinking water, sanitary sewer, solid waste and storm drainage facilities in rural areas and towns with populations of 10,000 or fewer. We stand at the ready to work with the citizens of Columbiana to bring its water delivery system into the 21st century. But the decision to move forward is in your hands alone.
State director USDA Ohio

Rumer Willis's new singing career clearly has the endorsement of one famous face: Ashton Kutcher.
The starlet had the support of her mom's ex husband during her four-song performance Tuesday at Hollywood's Sayers Club Sessions Presented by Jason Scoppa. (Moore, who recently returned to Los Angeles after treatment did not attend – nor did dad Bruce Willis.)
Rumer, who recently showed off her vocal prowess at the club, didn't seem nervous at all before her performance, according to an onlooker, and she greeted Kutcher as he arrived with a friend after midnight.
According to the onlooker, the Two and a Half Men star attempted to keep a low profile, letting Willis, who recently premiered The Diary of Preston Plummer in Miami, bask in the spotlight instead.
And as soon as Rumer, 23, took the stage, Ashton looked on proudly and snapped some photos on his phone.
As for her set, Willis tackled Ann Peebles's soul staple "I Can't Stand the Rain;""High Low Middle" by indie chamber pop outfit My Brightest Diamond; Otis Redding's "(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay"; and British soul singer Lianne La Havas's "Age."
As her performance continued, the crowd got more into it, clapping along and encouraging her. Kutcher whistled at one point and even sang along to some of the lyrics.
After the show, Willis talked to a few people before sharing a long, emotional embrace with Kutcher.
Says the onlooker: "It seemed really happy and loving – and like the two would be friendly ... no matter what."
