EAST PALESTINE - A suggestion made by Councilman Don Elzer earlier this month would open the door for government to get involved in an area it shouldn't, Councilman Alan Cohen said Tuesday.
The suggestion to require business and commercial property owners to register with the village for a $25 fee was made by Elzer at the last council meeting and discussed for a second time this week.
Currently, there are no requirements in place for those opening a new business in town or operating property for commercial or industrial purposes.
Elzer believes registration would allow the village to keep tabs on what buildings and properties are being used for-knowledge he believes is especially beneficial for safety reasons.
"From a safety standpoint our police and fire departments certainly need to know what is going on in our buildings," he said.
Cohen opposes the idea and argued he doesn't believe registration will "solve the problem," but will instead discourage new business.
He added Elzer's suggestion business owners pay the fee to receive a certificate that must be posted prior to opening is like making the registration function as a permit, and what would happen if a business is denied a certificate?
"This is what scares me. Not today, but two or five years from now, what we have is a permit situation where someone somewhere is going to say, 'We don't want another tattoo parlor or another bar,' so they don't get a certificate," he said.
Elzer countered the registration is more about knowing what businesses are in town and what is being done with commercial property.
Business owners recently advised him they were "shocked" to learn the village did not require a permit to operate, as other communities do, he added.
Village Manager Pete Monteleone said he was also shocked when he found local businesses were not required to obtain a license first.
"The easiest way to rattle my cage is to tell me everybody else is doing it. That might be a good reason not to do it ... It's just one more government intrusion," Cohen said.
He added the village has been getting along fine without the requirement so far.
"We are, at this point trying to attract businesses into town and this is one barrier in their way to doing it," he said.
Councilman Fran Figley said that while on the same page with Cohen regarding government control, he couldn't see a downside to the suggestion.
He said he believed the fee would be put toward acquiring a building inspector.
"We do need a building inspector and we don't have any money to pay for it. I thought that was some way to get money to pay for it. I think it would be helpful for some businesses to have that in place, that's why I'm in favor of it," he explained.
Cohen agreed an inspector is needed but believed the registration is "putting the cart before the horse."
"We have no way of enforcing this anyway," he said.
The discussion then turned to registration form confidentiality.
Cohen said the forms, once on file at the administrative offices, would become public record and "anyone walking in off the street" can request them.
The draft forms Elzer gave to council earlier this month request contact information, e-mail addresses and even social security identification.
Village Solicitor Shirley Smith said certain information, such as SSI, can be redacted before being made public.
A few people attending the meeting weighed in on the matter. One man who did not identify himself said the village should know if new businesses are adhering to the zoning classifications and occupancy requirements, but the village could become liable if a certificate is issued and a building is later deemed unsafe.
Monteleone said some state inspectors and the village's police and fire chiefs perform inspections every so often.
The discussion ended with no action.

Doctor William Bennett Bean, dean of American medical literati, dons pith helmet and boots for this one. Armed only with a trusty entourage of 897 references, a passion for clinical observation, and a talented pen, he sets out to chart the vast formidable wilderness of medical exotica. His safari through the eponymic overgrowth follows a tortuous path, but frequent glimpses of wit and color flash like patches of bright sunlight under the canopy of somber, bizarre and often grotesque diseases. For the most part, it is a bleak scene, largely populated by irreversible medical disorders of varying degrees of morbidity and mortality.
The book is arranged alphabetically (although for some reason "Bleeding" precedes "Air") to afford some semblance of organization. But the general impact is kaleidoscopic, as one finds from alkaptonuria amyloidosis-angiomatosis cheek-by-jowl on sequential pages.
The comprehensiveness of such a discourse on this broad field is virtually impossible to

PINCONNING, MI — A Pinconning school bus driver kept about 40 students safe when a power line wound up on top of the vehicle they were in.
"About 7:30 this morning, we had a bus on the corner of Seven Mile and Mount Forest at a stop sign," said Pinconning Area Schools Superintendent Michael Vieau on Thursday, April 11. "A power pole broke and a power line fell on top of the bus. We haven't confirmed it was a hot line at that exact moment, (but) we treated it like it was."
Driver Debbie Ransdell acted quickly to ensure the safety of the pupils inside, a mixture of elementary and high school students. Ransdell notified the school of the predicament, and staff in turn called 911 and Consumers Energy.
While waiting for emergency responders, Ransdell kept the students from exiting the bus, Vieau said.
"The bus sat there until Consumers removed the line from the bus," Vieau said, adding that firefighters were also at the scene. The mess was cleaned up and the bus allowed to continue on its way after about 40 minutes, Vieau said.
"They did a fantastic job of getting there on time," Vieau said of the emergency responders. "It was well-handled by everybody."
Ransdell, a driver for several years, did not want to comment on the matter, Vieau said.
"I commend her," he said. "She did an outstanding job. She was calm and under control, and I think her actions helped calm the students on the bus."
Vieau said he sent a message to the parents of each of the students involved. As of 3 p.m. Thursday, most of the parents hadn't yet had the chance to speak with their children about the incident, Vieau said.
The superintendent said he addressed Ransdell and the 40 or so bus passengers after they arrived at the school, and that the student didn't appear to be rattled.
John Sanford, principal of the elementary school, agreed that the kids didn't seem too shaken by the incident.
"They didn't really truly seem to be afraid or frightened or traumatized in any kind of way," Sanford said. "Class had already begun, and they just joined right in at that point. It really didn't seem to be a big deal to them. That would be tons of credit to the driver. Whatever actions she took really diffused the situation very, very well."

I WAS A BIT surprised, late in Thursday night's 31-21 Eagles preseason victory, to see a link on Twitter to a Yahoo.com take on the game, the author asserting that Ben Roethlisberger had really struggled on this night, and that Nick Foles hadn't fared much better.
This, after Foles led back-to-back scoring drives, and staked the Birds to a 17-0 lead. He sat down at halftime 19-for-29 for 179 yards, a touchdown and an interception, which occurred when Darren Sproles tripped over one of his blockers and fell in front of Troy Polamalu.

Stephen Ross Defends Mike Pouncey
Of the four central figures in the Dolphins bullying scandal, three will not be back in Miami this season. But the fourth, center Mike Pouncey, will be back and was unequivocally praised by Dolphins owner Stephen Ross at the league meeting.
It?s no coincidence that Pouncey is the best player of the bunch.
?I think he?s an outstanding young man,? Ross said, via the Miami Herald. ?Certainly, an excellent football player. I think he will turn out to be one of the real leaders on our team.?

Timothy McVeigh is scheduled to be executed May 16, 2001. His death sentence has given rise to questions about the current profile of the militia and anti-government groups in the United States to which McVeigh and his co-conspirator, Terry Nichols, identified with at one time. As a final chapter in the Oklahoma City bombing case draws to a close, ADL has assembled the most current available information on militia groups. Also listed are links to various reports on militias, terrorism, hate on the Internet and the Oklahoma City bombing case itself that ADL has produced in the years since the worst act of terrorism on U.S. soil.
This special report includes the most recent e-mail messages that militia groups, white supremacists and extremist groups have sent on the Internet to e-mail groups and bulletin boards discussing the McVeigh execution.
The Militia Movement and Timothy McVeigh
Timothy McVeigh has been associated with the militia movement because of his anti-government sentiments, although he was never a formal militia member. The militia movement peaked in strength in late 1996 and the number of members and overall strength of the movement has declined since then. The Oklahoma City bombing and its aftereffects did cause some people to drop out, especially the most "moderate" members. A number of hardcore members became disenchanted in 1996-97 when militia groups generally failed to come to the "rescue" of the Montana Freemen and the Republic of Texas in their highly visible standoffs with law enforcement. But probably the biggest factor was a series of high-profile arrests of militia members on weapons, explosives, and conspiracy charges in 1996 - the Arizona Viper Militia, the Washington State Militia, the Georgia Republic Militia and the West Virginia Mountaineer Militia, especially. At present the Midwest shows very strong militia activity: Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky.
Militias: McVeigh is a "Government Pawn"
The militias, tax resisters and sovereign citizens don't regard Timothy McVeigh as a poster boy for their cause. In fact they don't talk about him very much at all, but, insofar as they do speak of him, they describe him as a brainwashed government pawn. It is their belief that because he is "controlled by the government," this explains the reason he has abandoned the appeal process, i.e., the government is afraid that the brainwashing and conditioning won't last. And if the brainwashing effects are going to fade; well then, he must be executed immediately. So McVeigh's heinous act is neatly wrapped in a government conspiracy in order to explain it.
To the extent that there is any support for McVeigh, it comes from the white supremacists and neo-nazis who regard what he did as heroic - the act of a "lone wolf."
Kentucky State Militia
The Kentucky State Militia led by Commander Charlie Puckett is extremely active and is currently the strongest active militia in the U.S. The Kentucky State Militia employs a Web site, short-wave radio, personal appearances and militia networking. The KSM also runs militia-training sessions.
Recently, the group sponsored a multi-state militia meeting in Grayson County, Kentucky that featured combat training and a "communications seminar" by a short-wave radio broadcaster who has identified himself as a follower of the Christian Identity movement. He has said "those who worship 'idols and Gods' other than Jesus should leave the United States.
Puckett has said that the KSM opposes terrorism and that he would have "ripped Timothy McVeigh's head off" to stop the Oklahoma City bombing." However, he and his group are preparing members for nuclear war and for potential attacks by the government. This militia's numbers have been estimated from 100 to 200 members all the way up to a wildly exaggerated 9,500 from someone who claims to have gotten that number from Puckett, personally.Extremist Correspondance
Some extremists and white supremacists are using the Internet to discuss the May 16 execution of Timothy McVeigh. ADL's Internet Monitoring Unit, which works to expose and counteract online hate, has culled the following examples of chats from Internet e-mail lists and bulletin boards.

Chef Ho Closes in Sunny Isles: Good-bye Dim Sum
Chef Philip Ho has left the building.
All photos by Laine Doss
The neon sign is still lit as dusk approaches, but a gander inside the Sunny Isles restaurant makes it very clear that Chef Ho is closed.
Tables at the restaurant, which had a loyal following, are still set, but a lobster tank is dry and the bar is deserted. A sign on the door reads, "seafood restaurant coming soon" and the lights are out.
A person at a neighboring business confirmed that Chef Ho quietly closed a few weeks ago.

Chef Ho opened in fall 2011 as Chef Philip Ho, when the former dim sum chef at the Setai went into business for himself.
Almost instantly, the restaurant became the go-to for serious food lovers to indulge in dim sum and other Chinese delights. In a review, Miami New Times' Lee Klein wrote, "For neighborhood Chinese fare, Chef Philip Ho is as good as it gets. You might want to work your way over there before all of this adulation goes to Ho's head."
Empty chairs at empty tables.
About a year ago, the restaurant changed ownership and shortened its name from Chef Philip Ho to Chef Ho, with chef Ho still in charge of dim sum, and chef Lawrence Li taking over dinner duties, although the website never reflected the name change.

Christina Hendricks: My Dog Has the Same Hair as Me!
And, as the saying goes: like mother, like daughter!
"She has the same hair as me!" the actress, who plays Joan Harris on Mad Men, gushed to journalist Peter Travers in a recent interview.
Though photos show the furball is a brunette, perhaps Hendricks, 37, was alluding to those cascading waves; the actress has wavy hair, too, however she recently cropped it into a bob.
Either way, it's clear the star is smitten with the new addition.
"We call her Zuzu," Hendricks added. "She was named after [the character] in It's a Wonderful Life [because] she was a Christmas puppy."

Just hours after Irving Azoff's departure from Live Nation was confirmed, Billboard's Ray Waddell caught up with him over the phone from Mexico, where Azoff's family is vacationing with Don Henley's family. In this conversation, Azoff explains why he's leaving (especially on New Year's Eve), who he's taking with him, and why merging with Ticketmaster was both a highlight and a regret.
Irving Azoff: Sorry to f— up your New Year's, Ray.
Billboard: I thought that was the motivation for announcing today.
A: It wasn't to f— up New Year's, it was to pay [taxes]on 2012 rates rather than 2013.
Q: Something like this would seem to have been in the works for quite a while.
A: It came down very quickly. We had a board meeting on Dec. 10 and we got it done by last night. Really, all it was about was it was time for me not to work for a public company. That's all.
Q: Still, you had voiced a lot of confidence in what Live Nation can do.
A: There's no animosity between me and [CEO Michael] Rapino or anybody at the company whatsoever. He was a great partner, no problems there, none of that. It was just the frustration with working at a public company. We had a board that was afraid to do things because of the Treasury, institutional shareholders, people writing you letters, everybody complaining about you and your people making too much money, you can't do this, you can't do that, everybody has to be on the same e-mail address. Sh– like that just drove me crazy.
Q: But you will remain a manager.
A: I am going to remain a manager, although not to the scale that I was. I'm going to look to do other things in the business. I love the representation business, I'd like to maybe expand that beyond just music. But [Live Nation] were kind enough to work out a way for me to exit my contract early and still work with the people who are my friends, that I love and work with every day. That's people like the Eagles, Van Halen, Steely Dan, and Christina [Aguilera], the people you'd expect to be on that list.
Q: Will there be a new management company?
A: It's my old management company — Azoffmusic Management continues on. That was the unit that I personally ran and that's the unit I left with. [Azoffmusic staffers] Susan Markheim, Damian Smith, Tina Kennedy, Karim Karmi, Adam Flick, Allison Statter and Richard Palmese are the staff there.
Q: Will you be signing new artists, developing or otherwise?
A: It's too early to predict right now. Right now, Tina Kennedy and I are going to work on Cassadee Pope, the lady that won "The Voice," but it's kind of too early to predict anything else.
Q: So what's interesting to you, what would be fun?
A: It's so new. I'd love to talk to you in four to six weeks into my new life. The phones are ringing, but I have no idea yet. It all happened so quickly that I haven't really had a chance to take stock, see what's out there and what I want to do.
Video: Irving Azoff's Keynote Q&A at 2012 Billboard Touring Conference
Q: But your not going to just go play golf, are you?
A: F— no! The main reason I'm not going to just go play golf is I don't play well enough. I always say if my job was this hard I would quit. Golf is too f—in' hard for me to play any more golf.
Q: What can you say about Liberty Media's strategic goal, in your view, as an observer, now?
A: Liberty has a long-term commitment to the company. I think they believe in the long-term prognosis of the technology and the prospects of Ticketmaster. They're in for the long run.
Q: What can you say about the vacant chairman's spot?
A: I don't have a right to comment on that.
Q: Would you say that being in a public company chafed against your entrepreneurial spirit?
A: To me it was smothering. All I can say is public company life to me was smothering. This was not about people, it was about public company process, in the end. That's the most honest appraisal about why I wanted to leave.
Q: What about your other boardships?
A: IMG is a private company. Clear Channel is a mostly private company. I'm going to stay on those boards, and I'm also going to go on the Starz board, because Liberty asked me to. They've been a great partner to me and because Liberty asked me to I'm going to do that.
Q: What was your highlight at Live Nation Entertainment?
A: The highlight was getting the [Ticketmaster/Live Nation] merger done. And, by the way, Ticketmaster's renewal rate is incredible, Ticketmaster has done unbelievably well since the merger and I'm real proud of that.
Q: Any other highlights?
A: No, not really.
Q: Regrets?
A: The sad part is I would have preferred to have purchased all of Front Line and kept the whole team together, because I dearly love all the artists and other managers at Front Line. But it just didn't make any sense, there was no way to get that deal done.
Q: Did the roll up of Front Line management companies play out as you hoped?
A: If I had it to do over again I never would have merged with Ticketmaster.
Q: Why not?
A: Because further down the line I ended up in a situation where I had to break up Front Line because I merged with a public company and now I can't figure out a way to buy it back. If you ask me what my biggest disappointment was, it's that I made a decision to merge with Ticketmaster. I really wish we would have kept it a pure management play. That's my biggest regret.
Q: Had you done that, what would have been the end game? Would you still be running Front Line?
A: I think so. Financially, it was a hugely successful move for lots of managers. I didn't totally make that decision, the whole group of us did. But at the end of the day, if I could wind back the clock, that's the one regret I've got.
Q: What's the immediate future? What are you doing tonight?
A: I'm at my villa in Cabo at the El Dorado Beach & Golf Club. The Azoffs are spending New Year's with the Henley family. We're going to go down to the restaurant called the Palapa here at the club and have a nice dinner.
As Azoff told Billboard's Ray Waddell in a Q&A earlier today, the timing of his resignation was related to the higher tax burden that high income Americans will face in 2013. The company gave Azoff an early payment of an $8.2-million note due to him related to Ticketmaster's acquisition of Front Line, which would not have matured until October 1, 2013. Live Nation also accelerated the vesting of 1.47 million shares of restricted common stock that would have otherwise vested on October 29, 2013, and also accelerated vesting of nearly 664,000 shares and 326,000 options. In relation to Azoff's departure, Liberty Media purchased 1.7 million of his shares.

This attention to quality and a reasonable price tag has gained much recognition for the Giachi estate. Primolio is produced from a blend of Frantoio (60-70%) and Moraiolo (15-20%) olives, plus a small percentage of the Leccino, Maurino, and Pendolino varieties, all hand-picked within the first ten days of November and immediately cold pressed in order to conserve to the maximum extent the freshness of this early-picked fruit. The oil is very low in acidity and very flavorful.

Hi Allen. MQ clustering is not designed to send messages to a local queues that exists on many nodes (aka Queue Managers) of the cluster. MQ Clustering is for work-load balancing and automatic fail-over. ie. You send one message and it goes to one of the nodes and you don't know which one it is, and don't care.
You can actually open a clustered queue on a specific node and put msgs to it, but that's not how MQ is normally used. You can also using the "distribution list" feature of MQ to multi-cast messages, but that requires the sending app to have intimate knowledge of the receiving nodes, which is not a good design idea.
I think you actually want to do publish/subscribe messaging rather than point-to-point. ie. You put one message to a MQ topic string, and then MQ delivers it to all subscribers that are waiting on each of the nodes.
Look at the IBM Redbook "WebSphere MQ V7.0 New Features & Enhancements" for an explanation of these solutions and programming styles.
HTH, Glenn.

An invasive species of mussel has found its way into Lake Piru, making the lake the first in Ventura County to play host to the fast-multiplying mollusk.
After inspecting a patrol boat returning from time on the lake, several adult mussels were found in a cluster. After identification, they were confirmed to be quagga (or zebra) mussels. Further testing found that the mussel had made its way to other areas of the lake.
That was last December; now, in Piru Creek, which receives water from the lake, the mussel has turned up as well.
"We have a consultant working for us who is determining the degree of the infestation," said administrative service administrator for the United Water Conservation District Mary Kanatzer. "We hope to have results by this week to determine what we're dealing with in the lake."
The mussels live in fresh water and breed quickly, clogging vents and damaging boating and other equipment. The biggest ecological problem with the mussel is its ability to filter water. Mussels feed on a diet of plankton captured by processing the lake's water through their valves and in turn leave the water clear, making it possible for more efficient sunlight penetration, creating the perfect environment for algae to bloom. The algae can disrupt the ecosystem and push out other species.
How the mussel arrived in the creek, however, remains a mystery. While the creek gets water from Lake Piru through the Santa Felicia Dam, it had previously been thought that the water traveled too fast through the piping for mussels to survive. For a short period of time in 2013, though, a bypass valve was used instead of the fast-moving release pipe.
It is also unlikely that the mussel arrived aboard recreational vehicles. Due to the drought, rafting hasn't been allowed on Piru Creek since 2012.
The mussels reproduce by releasing larvae called veligers, which can float downstream and around lakes for several weeks before attaching to a boulder, wood or other water-dwelling object. Ridding lakes and streams of the mussels across the U.S. has proven near to impossible.
To further stress the matter, if the problem persists, farmers who rely on water from Piru Creek or the Santa Clara River could feel the squeeze if the United Water Conservation District decides to limit releases from the lake. Casitas Municipal Water District has asked the state to put a halt to releases from Lake Piru, hoping that the mussels can be removed sooner rather than later.
But Piru Creek receives water from Lake Piru through daily releases, as is required by the Endangered Species Act to protect the endangered steelhead trout, native to the waters.
"At this point we believe the only way we are allowed to stop our releases is if someone found that it wouldn't be a detriment to the California steelhead," said Kanatzer.
Jim Hines, conservation chair at the Los Padres chapter of the Sierra Club, said that he believes the damage has already been done and that the water district should stick to the requirements set by the Environmental Protection Act to protect the steelhead trout — meaning to continue to release the water into the creek.
"What bothers me and the Sierra Club is that United may try to use this to try to get out of the regulations of the federal endangered species act and not release the water," said Hines. "The mussels don't belong in the West — they're here, among other places — but our concern is, No. 1 the protection of the steelhead trout and we can't let this be used as an excuse to dry up the river."
An ongoing investigation into how the mussel arrived in the lake may shed light on the situation, but United is not jumping to any conclusions, Kanatzer said.
"We really need to understand the situation," said Kanatzer. "To take action and not fully understand what you're doing, you sometimes take the wrong action."

You may feel talkative and curious today. Your awareness of others may be strong, which could lead you to engage in interesting conversations. A good way to enhance these feelings is explore opportunities to interact with others in group activities. You can seek out clubs and groups that focus on topics of interest to you, attend a seminar or lecture, or even form a group of your own. It would also be a good idea to initiate stimulating conversations with others in your normal activities today. Simply think about some good topics for discussion and ask others for their opinions and thoughts. You will likely find that most people are eager to share their ideas and enter into a lively discussion with you.
Engaging in interesting conversations with others helps to stimulate and open our minds to new ideas. It is easy to become enmeshed in our daily routines and overlook the fact that we can bring more interest into our lives simply by choosing to stimulate our minds. Sharing ideas and entering into lively discussions with others gives us the opportunity to explore new avenues of thought and expand our awareness of the world. We then feel energized and stimulated, which can lend a greater sense of richness and joy to every moment. Opening your mind and sharing ideas with others today will help you call in exciting new energy to animate your life.

Residents in Great Britain may soon see radio and TV ads that offer advice on getting an abortion.
Official committees in the country announced proposals, Thursday, that would relax advertising rules on family planning services like abortion and condom use.
If approved, the change would give these groups permission to run their ads earlier in the day. Currently, such ads are only allowed to air at night. Current restrictions on airing the ads during children's programs would not change, however.
Officials say the new rules are aimed at reducing teen pregnancies. But Norman Wells of the Family Education Trust says the ads will have little positive affect.
"Advertising condoms and abortion advice services at a time when more children are in the television and radio audience will do nothing to reduce teenage conceptions or sexually transmitted infections," he said.
Last month it was reported that teen pregnancy rates in England and Wales rose for the first time in five years.
In response, the government began distributing condoms in schools, increased sex education programs, and launched a program making birth control pills available without a prescription.
Thursday's TV and radio ad proposal must be approved by British broadcast regulators.

Weather Wednesday: Summer Farmers Market in Derry

Speed blamed for fiery tanker truck crash on I-81
HARRISBURG -- Excessive speed caused the fiery tanker truck crash at an interstate interchange in Harrisburg earlier this year, the Pennsylvania State Police said Tuesday.
A reconstruction of the accident revealed that the driver, Thomas Uecker, 52, of Dover, was traveling at between 48 and 50 miles an hour in an area where the speed limit for tractor-trailers is 40 mph, said Trooper Rob Hicks.
The truck, which was hauling 7,500 gallons of diesel fuel, flipped over and burst into flames May 9 on a ramp from Interstate 81 north to Routes 22/322, just across the Susquehanna River, closing the interstate for several days. The fire's intense heat buckled steel beams and damaged the road so badly officials feared it might collapse on the interstate.
The rehabilitation of the interchange is expected to cost between $12 million and $13 million, according to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation. Nearly $12 million of the cost is being paid by the federal government.
Uecker was charged last week with three summary traffic offenses.
The legal developments came on the heels of November's opening of a new two-lane bridge that carries eastbound traffic onto Route 22.
