TRENTON - A Southampton contractor was sentenced today for falsifying documents to indicate that truckloads of contaminated soil from a state bridge project in Trenton were taken to an approved landfill, when he actually dumped them at a Burlington County farm.
James E. Haas Jr., 65, of Southampton, was sentenced to three years in state prison.
Haas pleaded guilty on May 28 to a charge of contract fraud. He had been named in a state grand jury indictment obtained on Aug. 14, 2007 by the Division of Criminal Justice Environmental Crimes Bureau.
Haas was hired as a subcontractor for the state Department of Transportation's Southard Street Bridge project in Trenton to dispose of a large quantity of contaminated soil that was stockpiled at the project site. The subcontract required that the soil be disposed of as non-hazardous industrial dry waste at a DEP-approved facility.
While the soil was suitable for use as daily cover at the Burlington County Landfill, an approved disposal facility, the county had an adequate supply of cover and would not accept the soil from the Southard Street Bridge site.
The state investigation determined that from Aug. 7 to Aug. 10, 2006, Haas arranged for removal of more than 400 truckloads of contaminated soil from the Southard Street Bridge site.
He arranged for the truckloads of soil to be dumped at a farm at 400 Hartford Road in Moorestown, which was not an approved disposal facility. The farm owner believed it was clean fill.
To meet the contract requirements, Haas submitted bills of lading that indicated the soil went to the Burlington County Landfill.
He also submitted fabricated weigh tickets for each truckload to support his claim that they went to the landfill.
DEP oversaw the removal of the soil from the farm in Moorestown to an approved landfill facility, where it was used for cover.

Album Summary
- Oleg Marshev (Piano)
Notes & Reviews:
We are happy to present the fourth volume in the highly popular Danish Piano Concerto series. Victor Bendix was beholden to the past, as his warmly Romantic Symphonies reveal. With the arrival of the young Carl Nielsen, whose own music willingly explored modern trends, composers such as Bendix were swept aside, so it is doubly valuable to have this release of his Piano Concerto, which many have compared to Saint-Saens. Even more obscure is the work of composer Rudolph Simonsen. Like Bendixs, his music reflects the Romantic era in its sweeping melodies and virtuoso writing.

With the opulent beauty of the dress and hair design, the sweet smell of perfume, and the clouds of dusting powder rising from the stage, the performance creates a multi-sensual experience and transports the audience into a world of outsized beauty and delight -- but also of overwhelming restrictions and prejudice.

Apart from introducing Prince George to his great-grandfather Prince Philip and discussing the upcoming Christening with the baby's great-grandmother Queen Elizabeth, what have the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge been up to on their vacation at Balmoral Castle?
William took the son of New Zealand Prime Minister John Key with him on a grouse shoot, while Kate chaperoned the politician's daughter on a walk through the woods.
Max Key, 18, didn't shoot anything, because he didn't know how to use the guns stored by the royals at the Scottish retreat. Besides, "They're very hard to shoot, the grouse," his father told the New Zealand Herald.
The prime minister's daughter Stephanie, 20, joined Kate and a group of young women on the woodland amble, said Key.
During the two-day visit, according to Key, the family also got to meet, but not cuddle, two-month-old George. The littlest prince is a "very bonny baby," he reports.
Part of Key's formal visit included an audience with the Queen, who is New Zealand's head of state.
In a news photo of the meeting, it can be seen that the Queen, 87, has framed and on display an official family portrait of William, Kate and Prince George, taken by Kate's father Michael in August.

Deep Green Resistance Wisconsin presents:
The Occupy the Machine Speaking Tour:
For ten thousand years, the 1% have been turning living creatures into dead commodities and robbing everyone to accumulate wealth. The Earth is now on the brink of biotic collapse. We get closer to the precipice every day.
But we will stop them while there is still time left.
We must gather our strength, our strategies, and our willingness to sacrifice before the machine destroys us all. Symbolic arrests, one-day blockades, and mass rallies are all crucial to effective resistance. But no struggle can win if it stops there. We have to escalate.
It's time to put our bodies between our planet and the machine. We need a sustained, strategic campaign of nonviolent direct action, waged on a scale not seen since the Civil Rights movement.
Are you ready? Come hear more. Representatives of the Occupy the Machine coalition will be presenting and holding a Q&A session at two different events in Wisconsin, late this March. All donations gathered at the events will go towards the upcoming Occupy the Machine Coalition action in Houston, TX this April.
The first event is on Wednesday, March 28th at Wil-Mar Neighborhood Center, located at 953 Jenifer St. Madison, WI. The event starts at 6:30pm sharp.
The next event is on Thursday, March 29th at People's Books Cooperative, located at 2122 E. Locust St. Milwaukee, WI. The event starts at 5:00pm sharp.
Here is a video of Xander Knox, the Occupy the Machine Coalition member who will speak at these events:

It probably gave you an error message (which you ignored?). The

You will not be able to do anything until you stop automountd or change

BALTIMORE — How close is Jacoby Jones to Gary Kubiak, the Ravens' new offensive coordinator—and Jones' former head coach in Houston?
"I think I'm gonna get that DNA test. I'm gonna steal his coffee, swab the cup and figure it out,'' Jones deadpanned Wednesday afternoon after the Ravens' workout at their mandatory minicamp.
MORE: Steve Smith, Ladarius Webb fight in practice
That would be a DNA test to confirm that Kubiak is, in fact, "my real biological father,'' as Jones proclaimed back in January during a radio interview in New York during Super Bowl week.
"I gotta make sure,'' Jones continued Wednesday, still straight-faced as reporters burst out laughing. He added, "I sure hope my mama doesn't see this—she'll kill me.''
The joke originated earlier in January, when Kubiak was hired by the Ravens and said of Jones, who played for the Texans his first five seasons before joining the Ravens in 2012, "I dont want to say I was like a father figure to him, but he was like one of my children.''
Jones took it a step further at the Super Bowl when talking to Baltimore's WNST-AM: "He's like a father-figure to me, and I'm starting to think he's my real biological father. I don't know my daddy, so I think he's really my daddy now."
Joking aside, Kubiak and Jones exchanged public compliments and private texts when Kubiak, fired by the Texans last December, joined the Ravens. Even though the Texans cut him after the 2011 season (allowing him to land in Batimore and win the Super Bowl a year later), they clearly have mutual respect. When he was hired, Kubiak praised Jones' development "not only as a player, but as a man."
In turn, Jones on Wednesday praised Kubiak's offense, saying everyone had picked up on it already and adding that, for him, it's "still in there, computerized." He pointed at his head, and added, "Five years of it."

Another one of the benefits while searching in Find mode is that the ability to be able to search within date and time fields. If you look inside of our exercise files, you see that we have got a couple of fields here, in the Invoice list, that are date fields and some that are time. So, for example, we have got Invoice date and ship time timestamp and then the ship time. In some of the more recent versions of FileMaker, there has been a lot of new improvements to date and time searching capabilities, and they are actually kind of cool. Each of the syntax that I will show here applies only to fields that are set up specifically as date, time or timestamp.
So the same types of techniques won't work in number fields, or text fields or anything like that. So, first let's look at date fields. You see that we have got several different dates in our database. If we hit Show All, we see all the different dates: 2011, 2009, and so on. They are all formatted as dates with month, day, and year, and normally when you search inside a FileMaker field, you will be searching in the exact syntax that's contained within the field, because as with a date field, I try to enter a value in a new record in anything but this format, I would get an error from FileMaker. So normally you would probably expect that same type of behavior when you are searching in FileMaker, but that's not the case, and it has some interesting effects.
So let me give you an example. Let's go in a Find mode and in the Invoice Date, I am going to enter in a value that's not formatted as a date. As a matter of fact, I am just going to try entering in 2010. What this demonstrates is that by typing in 2010, FileMaker recognizes that it's a four digit year, and it creates a wildcard search for you. So we have got a wildcard character, forward slash wildcard character, another forward slash and then the year. So really it's not searching on 2010 because, in fact, it does require date formatted fields. What it's doing is putting in wildcard characters on your behalf.
So let's cancel this Find, go into another one and this time let's type in 6/2010. Now, in this case, what it will do is it will give us 6/*/2010. So the wildcard is going to be in the date. So what we will probably get in this case, if we hit Perform Find, is anything that has the month of 6 and the year of 2010. So in English, what that means is it's giving us any day within June of 2010. How about if we go into Find mode and we just simply enter in 6? Now, let's see who FileMaker handles it.
We are just hitting the New Request because that allows us to see what happens, because otherwise, FileMaker does it so quickly. Well, if you are just enter in a single digit, or let's say you are enter in 12 for example, it assumes that you are looking for the month, and it also assumes that you are looking for the month in the current year. So if I just go in and redo another Find, and put 6 in there, what I am going to get back are all of the records from 6 of 2010. Now keep in mind that the exercises that I am doing here involve current year, and at the time of this recording, it's 2010.
So if you are looking at this with a computer date of anything but 2010, you are going to get different search results that I am getting here. In a previous movie, we talked about Search Operators and using ranges, but we can also use ranges with these abbreviated date functions. So, for example, by going here and I type in 4/2010...6/2010, now we are combining the wildcard search format with search operators. So in this case, what we are going to get are any date between April of 2010, including June 2010 and of course, May in between.
So let's hit Perform Find, and sure enough, you see we have got April, May, June all peppered in there. But one of the most interesting ways to search in a date, timestamp or time field involves not entering in numeric values at all. So if we go into Find mode, and I go into a date field and I type in Friday, you'd think this would kick it out because it can't even reformat it - we do with a little trick of looking in New Request - all it does is change it to Fri, which is something that's built-into FileMaker to identify any date that was actually a Friday.
So let's go back and just do one Friday and hit Perform Find. Now without there being a field that's says what day of the week any of these invoices were written up, FileMaker still knows that these 33 records represent a date that was a Friday on a calendar. So that could be very useful, if you are interested in doing some trending or digging through your data to try to find out when the most popular day for orders might be - something along those lines. The same techniques are true for time fields, as well. So you see we have got a field called Ship Time.
If we go into Ship Time, and just type in 3pm and do a Perform, we see that we will get any record that was written up in the 3 o'clock hour. Irrespective of the date it was done, we do get everything from 3:04, 3:17, 3:15. You see you get it just there and also these types of things can work with our ranges. 3pm...6pm. Now this is any record written up within the hours of 3, 4, 5, or 6, and also we can just put in pm.
So if you interested to see what kind of ordering you get at night or in the afternoon versus in the morning, you can just simply enter pm and FileMaker will go and find all of the records that have time that was in the pm instead of am. If you get familiar with the searching syntax, it's not only going to help you, but as you train your users, and possibly as you start to work with scripts, which we will cover later in this title, the syntax can help you more accurately find date, time, and timestamp date within your database.

The Two Lone Swordsmen are English producers Andrew Weatherall and Keith Tenniswood. Formed in early 1996, following the dissolution of Weatherall's influential Sabres of Paradise techno act, the Swordsmen have explored a variety of styles, from house and techno to post punk, indie dance & downtempo in later years. Originally they released material on the label Emissions Audio Output, run by Weatherall. However, the small nature of the operation limited the duo's success and they subsequently signed to Warp Records, making them labelmates with acts such as Autechre and Boards of Canada, as well as setting up the Rotters Golf Club label for their more dancefloor-friendly output under various other guises.
In 2004 they released From the Double Gone Chapel, exhibiting more of a late 1970s dub and post punk sound than their previous work, influenced heavily by groups like PiL. It was released with the single Sex Beat, a cover of the popular Gun Club song. Their latest album, Wrong Meeting, was released in April 2007, with Wrong Meeting II following a month after. Set solidly in the dub rock vein they explored on From the Double Gone Chapel, the duo venture into sleezy country and LCD Soundsystem-style punk funk disco.

Northern York County Regional Police said two men, one armed with a machete or large knife, forced their way into an apartment Friday in North York Borough.
They tied up a woman and stole a small amount of cash and her cellphone, police said.
The woman fled to a neighbor's home where the towel that was around her wrists was cut off, police said.
Investigators said it appears the men targeted the home along North George Street.

Thanks for the support
4-H projects can be great learning experiences for the youths who work on them. In addition to gaining hands-on knowledge about the project itself - from sewing to woodworking to working with animals - the youngsters also get real-world lessons in financial matters. Inputs such as materials, feed, even time and effort spent on the project, offer an enlightening perspective on the cost of production. Abstract economic concepts take on concrete meaning when they handle the work themselves.
That's especially true with livestock projects, which is why it is important to acknowledge the groups, companies and individuals who provide commercial bids during the annual livestock sale.
That assistance is even more helpful during years when higher feed prices increase the cost of raising the animals. While the 4-Hers will send the "buyers" thank-you notes, we also want to publicly thank them for supporting these enterprising youngsters.
For a list of the names of those who provide that support, see the special section inside today's edition.

Bra vs. Braless

I recently posted in the Fashion Thread a comment that my FMIL made regarding my going braless. It seemed as if all the comments were of the type that women should wear bras, and it is not "appropriate" or "acceptable" for a woman to be in public without a bra. I was wondering why everyone feels that a woman should wear a bra. For many women, a bra is definatly needed or appropriate. And even so, if they prefer not to wear one then it is their choice. Does the size of a woman's breasts dictate whether or not a bra is "necessary"? What about a woman who chooses to not wear underwear? Although it might not be as noticable, does that make a difference. I made the decision to not wear a bra because I did not thing that I really needed one, and felt more comfortable. When my mother realized that I did not wear them, she supported my decision and allowed me to make my own choice. It does not bother my fiance', althought at times he has asked me to wear one and I do so because he feels more comfortable with me having one on. The only person who really makes a comment is my sister, and she does it jokingly as a sister would. And if it matters, I am a 34B not a Pam Anderson "D" cup.

I never go out in public w/o a bra although I do think smaller chested women can get away with it more. I just wish I had a bit more then I think I would be more comfortable with it.

Personally, I would never go out in public braless (even though I am only a 34A, but I also live in Alaska, and it's usually so cold out that my nipples would be SO noticeable, lol). Honestly though, I think you should be allowed to do whatever you want within reason - and considering you are of smaller bust size, well, I don't think it's that big of a deal. If you are comfortable this way, and it is in an appropriate setting - which could be argued as to what is appropriate and what is not (grocery store vs. a big wedding reception) then I really do say go for it.

I wouldnt go to school/work or anything like that braless.. but if it's in the evening and i'm wearing my hoodie or something comfy i won't wear one.. I don't think it's a big deal unless they are hanging out and looking nasty

I'm a 32C and only go braless at home. I think it has more to do with the shape of the breast (especially if a girl is "cold" and it is noticable) being viewed as sexual. I don't think your fiance would generally mind, because he probably enjoys thinking of you in that way. However, your FMIL may not enjoy the idea of others viewing you in a sexual manner. Mostly I would say it just has to deal with modesty and what is considered socially acceptable where you live.

I couldn't go out in public braless. I think bras make you look better in tops and I personally think that going braless makes you look really sloppy.

I pretty much only go braless at home, unless there's a very special shirt or something that I can't wear one with. I mean, in the summer I'm pretty much in a bathing suit whenever I'm not working, so that's my summer "bra wear". I don't know, it just doesn't seem appropriate to be not wearing one - especially in a situation like you were in at your MIL's house. I just feel there's parts of people's bodies that should be covered in certain occasions - I'm assuming you probably wouldn't go over there in a pair of pants with such a low rise that your thong was visible for the world to see? I definitely think it's easier for small-breasted women, but even though I am part of that club, I still don't really like the look

I rarely go out in public w/o a bra unless I'm wearing a shirt that has one built in, but that's mostly because I look flatter without a bra and it does my shirts no justice. I'm a 32A (barely), so wearing a bra with a little bit of shaping really helps me look better in my clothing. I don't think it's a big deal to go without a bra unless it's REALLY obvious (like a shirt so tight it shows everything).

I agree with the previous posters. As long as it's appropriate and you are comfortable, you shouldn't have to wear a bra. God knows I don't when I don't have to and I'm a 36B as well. With that being said, I would never go to work or a wedding without a bra. I also wouldn't wear something really obvious that says, "hey, look at my nipples, I'm not wearing a bra."

I personally wouldnt go out braless because I just dont want that kind of attention . I also wouldnt want my bf/date/hubby whatever to be oggling someone else who decided to go braless. I mean boobs are boobs big or small no bra usually means male attention.

I personally think everyone should wear a bra -- the main reason being that I think it is very tacky to see hard nipples! If you're small and don't need the support, then yeah, you may not need the support of a bra. But I've always thought that visible nipples were tacky -- I've always made sure that my bras were molded cup or otherwise stiff/padded enough so that the nips would never show! For the record, I'm a 36AA (the cup size of a 34A but with a wider ribcage, grrr) so I know a lot of people would say I could get away without a bra, but I never go without one! I even insist on wearing a strapless bra under shirts that have a built-in shelf bra, again to hide the nips.... And I personally think I look much nicer in a molded cup bra with underwires, since it helps shapes my boobs and just enhances what I have without adding tons of fake padding or anything! But that's just me, I could care less if other smaller girls want to wear the soft cup / wire-free bras... As for not wearing underwear, I think that's even grosser (just for hygenic reasons), but at least you can't tell that people are going commando...

I think it's your choice, but if you go braless for long enough, your breast tissue will lose strength and start to sag! That's one of the main reasons women are supposed to wear bras is to prevent sagging later on! B cup is still pretty descent size and the weight will slowly pull them down! I also think the floppy look with hard nipples is gross! If I were you, I would find a really cute, sexy yet comfortable bra so it makes you feel provacative and sexy when you wear it! Or you could wear the shelf bra tank tops under your shirt!!

Personally, I wouldn't go out anywhere braless. Unless I'm in the vicinity of my own house would it be ok. Although I'm a 36A/34B, I feel a bit unnerved since I get cold easily and ppl would definately notice the nips. lol, so I obviously do not need any attention, esp coming from the males. It used to irk me a lot cuz I have a friend who's barely an A cup and she gets away with wearing a bra, but it's so blatantly obvious she's not wearing one and the guys always used to ogle her and she wonders why...:plain: Regardless, men are men no matter if you got watermelons or bee stings. lol However, if you're truly comfortable in exercising your rights not to wear a bra. More props to ya. I just rather detach myself from any attention of the opposite sex

if you have a small bust, i think you can get away with nothing wearing it. but i think all women should wear it just b/c it looks better and it's good support for your back!

Benton comes full circle at BG
September 25, 2007 - Neil Rudel
Bishop Guilfoyle ought to count its blessings that it has Dave Benton around.
Benton was told during the 2000 high school basketball season that his services -- after 14 mostly-successful years with the Marauders -- were no longer needed, effective at season's end.
Unless a high school coach commits a crime or an inappropriate act -- Benton did neither -- he should be given the courtesy of completing a season before his job is opened.
It's different in professional and even college sports where such lead time sometimes helps a coach get his next job. High school sports are and should be different.
During his BG tenure, Benton compiled a 204-187 record against mostly Class AAAA and AAA competition and won five District 6 championships (1987, 1991 and 1992 in Class AA and 1993 and 1997 in Class A). His teams always played hard, and he represented his alma mater with class, but those in power in 2000 felt a change was needed.
What BG got was instability.
Since pushing Benton out, BG has been coached by Terry Sullivan, who wound up in jail, Tom McConnell, who took the team for two years before returning to college basketball, and Josh Baker, who suddenly has requested an indefinite leave of absence.
Fortunately for the Marauders, Benton returned to the team as an assistant under Baker last year and is now willing to fill the void, temporarily or not.
Guilfoyle is lucky that Benton bleeds purple.
