PINECROFT - Kathy Haduk's curiosity paid off.
"I had some coins and gold jewelry. I wanted to get an idea what or if they were worth anything, I walked away with a check," the Blandburg woman said.
Haduk was one of a "steady stream" of people who visited the Ohio Valley Gold and Silver Refinery Roadshow Tuesday at the Comfort Suites Altoona at the Pinecroft interchange of Interstate 99.

Alain Jimenez, an operator with Ohio Valley Gold & Silver Refinery Roadshow, evaluates coins for Bob Koch of Hollidaysburg on Tuesday afternoon at Comfort Suites Altoona in Pinecroft.
Show operators are searching for rare and unique collectibles and match collectors with people looking to buy and sell, said Rick Washburn, field manager.
"The No. 1 market is gold, silver and silver coins because those markets are at an all-time high. Especially coins 1964 and older," Washburn said. "War items are also popular, World War II and anything World War I or Civil War."
Basically, the customer brings in his items, a buyer looks at them and consults online with collectors to see what they are willing to pay and may make an offer.
"If you like the offer, we cut you a check on the spot," Washburn said.
Some of those visiting the show brought coins.
"I have some stuff that is really old and is not doing me any good," said John Schroeder of Altoona. "I have a couple hundred old coins. Some are from the 1800s."
Cathy Tellish of Greenwood said she downsized from a house to an apartment after the death of her husband.
"My husband kept everything and anything. He had coins that were so old and I didn't know what to do with them; they were just sitting there. I didn't know what they are worth or if they are worth anything," Tellish said. "He also had some old comic books that go back to the 1950s. He had book after book and I didn't know what to do with them."
Scott Hoover of Altoona brought a hodgepodge of items to the show, including a Civil War sheath, a 1916 Coca Cola calendar, a 25-meter Nazi tape measure with a swastika on it, some old wooden animal toys from the 1800s and an autographed picture of Lucille Ball.
Hoover also brought in an umbrella stand signed by S.W. Farber, the founder of Farberware. He said his grandmother was a nanny for the Farber family on Long Island.
Those selling their items said the decision to sell had nothing to do with the economy.
"This stuff means nothing to my sons and daughters-in-law. It would get thrown out when I die," Haduk said.
The show continues from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. today through Friday and from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.
Mirror Staff Writer Walt Frank is at 946-7467.

Q: My ferret is 9 years old and has always been good about using the litter box. A couple of months ago she started pottying all over her cage. I keep it very clean. Why do you think she's doing this? A: That is quite old for a ferret, and she can probably be excused for not using her litter box. Much like people and other animals, ferrets lose some control over their elimination habits. This could be due to advanced age, it could be she is having trouble making it in time, or it even could be that she is having trouble getting into the litter box. Try to make it as easy for her as possible by adding some boxes and making sure they have a low entrance.
Also, take her to your ferret-knowledgeable-veterinarian for a checkup, just to be certain a medical condition isn't the cause of the problem.

Editor, APWA Reporter
Many communities in the U.S. and Canada will celebrate National Public Works Week (NPWW) May 18-24 in a variety of ways to enhance the public works profession in the eyes of the public. NPWW is your best opportunity to inform the public about how public works professionals contribute to everyone's health, safety, and comfort. The 2003 theme is "The Strength of Public Works.â€
Successful activities, many conducted through the cooperative efforts of APWA chapters, have included:
According to Transportation Director Mike Herr, NPWW is an opportunity for the department to communicate with its customers about the role of the Polk County Transportation Department in their daily lives. "We use the promotion of National Public Works Week as a way to explain to the public about transportation services, the revenue and expenditure side of our operating budget, and our capital improvements program,†Herr said.
The setting each year for the department's NPWW celebration is the Eagle Ridge Mall, a large retail shopping mall in Polk County. The promotion consists of an equipment show that displays some of the equipment used by the department's Roadway Maintenance and Traffic Operations Divisions. In addition, all four of the divisions—Roadway Maintenance, Engineering, Transportation Planning, and Traffic Operations—organize a series of Public Information Displays to better inform the public about the department's services.
"We have information tables set up for each of our divisions to support our displays,†said Herr. "We have an opportunity to address questions, take notes, and follow up. Last year we reached over 1500 citizens. We took the time to explain our department, the services we provide, our cost, and projects we're working on.â€
The department also gives out door prizes during the weekend at the mall. In order to qualify for a door prize a person needs to visit every display. "We feel it's important that they walk away with something about our department,†Herr said.
"Keep our people pumped upâ€
Just prior to National Public Works Week in Polk County each year, the NPWW proclamation is read aloud in the Board of County Commissioners' meeting room in the County Administration Building. Polk County management and staff are invited to participate in accepting the proclamation.
Following the equipment show and information displays at the mall, Polk County's NPWW celebration concludes with an appreciation and recognition luncheon that takes place following Memorial Day. Each year the department invites to the luncheon county commissioners, the county manager, the deputy county manager, and all of the staff who participated in the information displays at the mall.
"Last year we had three commissioners and our county manager at the luncheon,†Herr said. "Of course, we also had our entire staff. We do a lot of celebrating and promoting, because we view National Public Works Week as an opportunity to improve morale and help keep our people pumped up. After all, it's tough working in government.â€
According to Herr, it was an honor to have three commissioners attend the luncheon. "To have three commissioners there shows the respect they have for our program,†he said. "Also, it was an opportunity for us to communicate with three elected officials about what we do, why we do it, and what our needs are. Because, let's face it, they appropriate money. So that was a great opportunity for us.â€
This year the department is going to take advantage of something that is common in many malls across the U.S.—the multiplex movie theatre. "There is a large theatre complex at the mall with four or five auditoriums,†Herr said. "This year we are going to rent some time on the screens and communicate what National Public Works Week is all about. For the people who may have come to the mall just to see the movie, maybe we can catch them while they're there.â€
"How To†guide will help
The Polk County Transportation Department is just one example of the many celebratory events that were conducted last year during National Public Works Week. We'd love to hear how you are planning to celebrate NPWW in 2003. Just go to the National Public Works Week website (www.apwa.net/npww) and click on "Tell us about your NPWW outreach.â€
APWA headquarters is providing chapters with material to help publicize NPWW. A "How To†guide for planning your National Public Works Week is being sent to public works departments across the U.S. and Canada (if you haven't received yours in the mail, please contact us at 800-848-APWA to request one, or go to www.apwa.net/npww). In addition, APWA marketing staff are working with world-renowned illustrator Gary Kelly on the 2003 NPWW poster, which will be available for purchase in early February.
A major highlight of NPWW will be the disclosure of the "Top Ten Public Works Leaders of the Year†for 2003. A panel of knowledgeable judges will examine the accomplishments of the nominees who have contributed so much to the entire public works field. They will narrow the nominations down to the ten winners, who represent all public works officials.
Individual ceremonies will be held for the winners in their hometowns, at which they will receive attractive plaques. APWA will release the winning names and information of their accomplishments to newspapers, magazines, radio, and television stations. A feature article announcing the winners will appear in the May issue of the APWA Reporter.
If you have questions regarding the promotion of National Public Works Week, please contact Jon Dilley, Manager of Marketing and Graphic Design, at 1-800-848-APWA or at firstname.lastname@example.com.

It's game time for the Metro League's best girls swimmers.
At 1:30 p.m. today, the Metro's best will hit the pool at Mt. Hood Community College Aquatic Center for preliminaries in the Class 6A state meet.
And while nothing has been decided, you can bet that the Metro League will be well represented on the awards stand before meet's end. The Class 6A meet continues with championship finals beginning at 1 p.m. Saturday.
For Sunset's girls, who won the Metro district meet last week, the chance for more big things at state is at the forefront of their minds. The Apollos finished second to Jesuit at state last year.
"We are so happy," Sunset senior Haley Fellows said after her team's district win. "It's just a relief, and now we have state to worry about."
"It will be a lot harder at state, but I think we have a chance," added junior Emily Cheng, the Metro champion in the 200-yard freestyle and second-ranked swimmer in the state field.
The Sunset swimmers most expected to make an impact at state are: the top-seeded 200 medley relay team of Megan Lam, Nina Stitt, Angela Liu and Cheng; Cheng, seeded second in the 200 free and third in the 100 free; Stitt, fourth seeded in the 200 free; Lam, fifth seeded in the 200 IM; and the second-ranked 400 free relay team of Lam, Fellows, Stitt and Cheng.
Jesuit's girls, the five-time defending state champs, will make an impact this weekend, too, their prospects highlighted by freshman star Emily Cook. Cook, the Metro champ in both the 50 and 100 freestyle races, is fifth-seeded in the 50 and No. 2 in the 100.
"I don't know" how I'll do, Cook said. "We'll see because it's my first state meet."
Jesuit will also rely on the fourth-seeded 200 medley relay team of Emily Holman, Kenna Holt, Erin Perry and Zofia Zdanowicz, and the fifth-ranked 400 free relay team of Perry, Aimee Piercy, Zdanowicz and Cook.
Southridge, too, will likely make some noise at state, and also are led by a talented freshman, in this case Caitlyn Wilson. Wilson is the top-seeded swimmer in the 500 freestyle and is also No. 3 in the 200 free.
"I know there's really fast people from other districts, so I'm just hoping I can race them, and hopefully, get some good times," Wilson said.
Southridge also hopes to get points from its third-seeded 200 medley relay team of Alison Engstrom, Stephanie Maeda, Christin Young and Wilson.
For Westview, junior Tiffany Zhao will be in the midst of the Wildcats' state hopes. She is top-seeded in the 100 breaststroke, and is also part of two fourth-seeded relay teams.
In the 200 free relay, Zhao will team with Laila Kayfes, Tiffany Huang and Sophia Zhou, while in the 400 free relay, she'll be joined by Kayfes, Vivian Hua and Zhou.
And for Aloha, freshman Jordan Ashmore is ready to test herself against the state's best, after earning the second seed in the 100 back and fifth seed in the 50 free.
"I'm really just hoping to drop a little bit of time - I'm just hoping to go little faster," she said. "Honestly, if I can break 56 (seconds in the backstroke) I'd be so happy."

PENNSAUKEN — Three men have been arrested and charged in a series of church burglaries that spanned a three-day period, authorities said yesterday.
At least five church burglaries - three in Pennsauken and one each in Maple Shade and Moorestown - have been attributed to the men, said Pennsauken Police Capt. Earl Griffin.
Arrested Monday were William G. Tomlin, 38, and Robert J. Thompson Jr., 22, both of the 500 block of Barrows Avenue in Pennsauken; and Matthew W. Ubil, 27, whose last known address was in Camden, Griffin said.

The "new" involved father might diaper his daughter in infancy and coach her in soccer once she starts school. But when she enters puberty, he's outta there, either because he has left home or lost heart.
That, at least, is the story of many dads and daughters, according to counselors, fathering experts and young women themselves.
"Girls go from being Daddy's little girl to not a part of Daddy anymore," said 19-year-old Sara Shandler. At 17, Shandler read more than 800 letters from girls for her book "Ophelia Speaks" (HarperPerennial). She was surprised by the number of writers who were angry at or depressed by their fathers' inattention in their teen-age years. "A lot of girls wrote about their dads leaving, but even more wrote about feeling distant from their fathers," she said in an interview.
Maintaining ties
By LAURA SESSIONS STEPP
The Washington Post
Dads, to stay close to your adolescent daughters, experts suggest that you:
Pay your child support if you're divorced or separated - all of it.
Stay in the hallway when the door slams. Take the time to ask your daughter questions and to think about her answers.
Be physically active with her: ride bikes, play softball, paddle a canoe.
Demonstrate affection in a way that she is comfortable with. Offer your arm when taking a walk, kiss her on the forehead, hug her.
Show support for her passion, be it ballet or kick-boxing. Learn about it so you can discuss it with her.
Take an interest in her everyday concerns: her friends, teachers, music, future plans.
Ask her to accompany you on a business trip.
If she doesn't want to spend much time with you, suggest something simple: a dinner together once a week, breakfast on the weekend.
Talk to other dads who have adolescent daughters. One resource is
Moms Can Help
Keep Dad informed on what your daughter is doing and thinking about, even if it has to be by phone or e-mail.
Create opportunities for Dad and daughter to have time alone.
Avoid the "men are clueless" rhetoric. "That doesn't help Dad or daughter," said Amy Lynch, editor of Daughters newsletter.
Will Glennon, publisher of Conari Press, interviewed hundreds of dads for his book "Fathering." Early adolescence, he says, is "exactly the moment when girls need Dad the most. And it's exactly the moment when Dad steps back. Even the good dads who were there when she was little do this. Girls are being severely and unnecessarily handicapped."
Girls who enjoy loving relationships with their fathers through adolescence show more confidence in themselves and achieve more in school, particularly in the sciences, according to Heather Johnston Nicholson, research director of Girls Inc. Studies show they also are more likely to go to college and more likely to establish successful careers.
A good dad helps his adolescent daughter accept her body changes proudly, said Joe Kelly, father of 19-year-old twin daughters and founder of the organization Dads and Daughters. He teaches her not to be afraid of the outside world and to take risks in a calculated way. He sits down with her when he's paying the bills and shows her what he's doing. He also talks to her about negotiating the world of men and pays attention to the young men in whom she is interested.
An absent, disinterested or abusive dad can seriously damage a girl's psyche, said Janice Hutchinson, medical director of the child and adolescent units at the Psychiatric Institute of Washington. Most of the girls she has counseled in detention centers, like most incarcerated boys, suffered from father absence or abuse.
"The bitterness that flows toward fathers is astonishing," she said.
The girl who feels abandoned by her dad as her sexuality begins to emerge becomes confused sexually, said Jonetta Rose Barras, author of "Whatever Happened to Daddy's Little Girl?" (One World).
"She may look for the cuddling, holding and kissing she enjoyed when she was little, in inappropriate places," Barras said. "She may become promiscuous and afraid of commitment, a substance abuser or a workaholic. ... These are such critical years because she is beginning to interact with the external world."
Parental separation and divorce tend to occur either during the first years of a child's life or during early adolescence, according to psychologist Wade Horn, executive director of the National Fatherhood Initiative. After such a break, mothers who gain custody might stand in the way of father-daughter closeness. They may be angry because the father isn't paying child support or believe that raising a girl is their territory exclusively, said Joe Jones Jr., who runs a father education program in Baltimore.
James A. Smith, who works for Jones, has struggled to establish a friendly relationship with his daughter for about 10 years, since she was 12. He is quick to say her resistance has nothing to do with his ex-wife and everything to do with his past behavior. Shortly after his daughter was born, he left the family, strung out on drugs. He stayed away, contributing child support only sporadically, until he landed in jail.
He first apologized to his daughter for his past behavior from behind bars. "She tore the letter up and threw it in the trash can," Smith said. Father and daughter have had several meetings now that he is out of prison and holding a steady job, Smith said. But she recently moved to Northern Virginia without giving him her new address - not a good sign, he said.
Fathers' confusion over how to act with their daughters often starts when daughters are filling out, said Kelly. "Other males begin looking at our daughters the same way we looked at girls when we were their age, or maybe still do. To see our daughters treated as objects is frightening and appalling. We're afraid our daughters are going to be harmed or violated in a way we can't fix. We kick into this overprotective mode, not trusting their choice of friends, afraid that they won't stay out of trouble or know how to get out of trouble."
Fathers also may feel a discomforting sexual energy between themselves and their daughters, Kelly said, and not know how to express affection. Their daughters may share the same uneasiness. Sam Barrett, a printer in western Massachusetts who has a 14-year-old daughter, explains:
"My daughter is turning into a shapely woman and I don't want to be accused of molestation. It used to be at breakfast, when she was eating her cereal, I would kiss her on top of her head. I don't think she likes that anymore, so I limit the physical contact now to a hug, hello and goodbye."
Physical contact with his daughter isn't the only thing that is changing, Barrett said. Since Emma turned 12, she hasn't wanted to spend time with him as frequently as she once did. He knows that separation is a normal step in her development but it still hurts, especially because he and Emma's mother are divorced and Emma lives with his ex-wife. From the time of the divorce, when Emma was 2, until recently, she visited him every other weekend. "Now she has friends and things to do and every other week has dwindled to two or three weeks a year, which is nowhere near enough for me," he said.
Psychology professor Laurence Steinberg, longtime researcher on adolescents and families, has found that fathers and daughters do less together than fathers and sons, mothers and sons or mothers and daughters. When that's because the daughters are abandoning their dads, it's up to the dads to "suck it up and keep reaching out," said author Shandler. "The biggest thing they can do is say, 'If you need me I would really love to be there for you.' "
Her father, Michael, said that to her from the time Sara started giving him grief, at age 12. For four years she rolled her eyeballs when he tried to talk to her and made excuses for why she couldn't do things with him. Eventually she started treating him better, "but I had to do it on my own terms. He spent a long time waiting for me."
According to a survey by the World Health Organization (WHO), teen-age girls have a harder time talking to their fathers than do boys, with half of the U.S. girls surveyed by WHO reporting such difficulty.
That may be because daughters tend to be emotional, Glennon said.
"Guys don't know a whole lot about emotions. They ask, 'How come my daughter, who has this vocabulary, can't be rational?' " he said.
One father Glennon interviewed told a story about raising a daughter "he loved to pieces. Suddenly she became this monster yelling at him. He talked to a friend of his who is a woman who said, 'Harry, when your daughter says something to you, don't think, What's the answer? Think, What's the feeling?' "
That night, the man's daughter came home ranting that her best friend had snubbed her. The father said to his daughter, "If she does that, she's not much of a friend," at which point the daughter ran to her room and slammed the door shut behind her. Reflecting on his own friend's advice, the father realized that his daughter was in pain. He walked to the bedroom and knocked on her door.
"I'm sorry, you must feel terrible," he said.
The door opened, the daughter ran out, threw her arms around her dad and started crying.

Back on the first I set a November writing goal of finishing both of my works in progress. Yesterday, I sent a completed draft of INFECTED (my medical memoir about when I almost died of an infectious disease last summer) to my agent. I had 58k words at the end of October, and the draft I sent her is only 60k words, so I really haven't done much writing. But I did send it, so that totally counts.
Now all I have left to do is finish the now 50k word novel that I was working on back before I got sick. I did manage to write 60k words in October, there is no reason why I shouldn't be able to write 5-10k more to finish up this cute little YA romance. Except for the whole, I don't feel like it reason.
I mainly just feel sick. I'm way better than I was a few months ago. The chances of me dying are all over and done with. But I'm still not exactly healthy. I'm nauseous 24-7 and have a really hard time eating/digesting food. Plus I pass out often enough that I feel down right Victorian. I could be a character in a steam-punk novel with a weak constitution. My husband does collect steam engines.
So yeah. I can write 60k about how much I love my nurses with a few fun little anecdotes thrown in to keep the story going. Like when I had a panic attack in the ICU while receiving a neck-IV (worst medical treatment ever invented). And the time I overdosed on morphine 12 hours after my surgery. But when it comes to writing fiction, all I feel like doing is puking.
I did send my agent one completed project though, so I'm still going to call November a successful writing month. Even if I don't get around to doing any more writing.

Hang in there. Maybe a steampunk romance is your next project:)ReplyDelete
I'm a big for every time there is a season, maybe right now, fiction isn't going to be a focus, and understandably so. Either way, glad you finished your memoir and are tackling your self imposed goals. I'm still working through and loving your rec. from April's A to Z bloghop.

UNIVERSITY PARK - Penn State women's basketball coach Coquese Washington has delivered a consistent message to her team's bench players.
"I've been talking to them a lot and telling them that we need everybody," Washington said. "They have to come into the game and make an impact."
The group got its chance Thursday night at the Bryce Jordan Center.
Maggie Lucas scored 17 of her game-high 24 points in the first half and the No. 19 Lady Lions used a pair of early runs to jump-start a 76-44 blowout of Indiana. Nikki Greene added 17 points for Penn State (17-5, 7-3 Big Ten), which won for the sixth time in seven games.
The Lady Lions trailed only once at 5-4, led by 19 points at halftime and rolled to an easy victory over the last-place Hoosiers (5-18, 0-10), who have dropped 10 straight. No Indiana player finished in double figures.
The lopsided score resulted in increased minutes for the Lady Lions bench and a trio of reserves turned in strong performances. Gizelle Studevent scored 10 points, Talia East had a career-high nine points and nine rebounds, and Ariel Edwards had eight points.
"Talia came off the bench at the beginning of the game and made her presence felt," Washington said. "Gizelle made her presence felt. Ariel did good things for us. The bench was a key. They came in, gave us a lift and helped maintain where we were."
East, who twice scored eight points this season, said Washington reiterated her message to the team's reserves before the start of Thursday's game.
"[Washington] told us we needed a strong bench," East said. "Down the stretch, we needed the bench to be playing strong. My goal was to produce with rebounds."
Indiana entered the game without a victory in over a month at the bottom of the conference in scoring offense, scoring defense, field goal percentage and scoring margin.
It didn't take long for the Lady Lions to pull away.
Danilsa Andujar made one of two free throws to give the Hoosiers their only lead of the game just two minutes in. Lucas then started a 13-0 run with a 3-pointer followed by a 15-foot jumper. Talia East's layup then made it 11-5. Alex Bentley and Lucas followed with baskets, and another layup from East gave Penn State a 17-5 lead at the 14:12 mark.
"I think that Penn State's a very good team and they came out ready to play," Indiana coach Felisha Legette-Jack said. "They came out with aggression on the inside and tenacity of the perimeter. The best team won today."
Ahead by 12 points, the Lady Lions went nearly six minutes without a field goal and Indiana rallied briefly. Back-to-back baskets from Milika Taufa trimmed Penn State's lead to 17-9. A jumper from Sasha Chaplin cut it to a six-point game and Andrea Newbauer's lay-up made it 18-13 with 9:02 left in the first half.
But Penn State responded by scoring 13 of the next 15 points. After Mia Nickson made one of two free throws, Lucas followed with a 3-pointer at the 8:19 mark to break the Lady Lions' field goal drought and push their lead back to nine points.
Another basket from Lucas made it an 11-point game. After a lay-up from Greene, Lucas added a 3-pointer to push the Lady Lions' advantage to 31-15 with 4:56 remaining in the half.
Lucas made both free throws with 10 seconds left to give the Lady Lions a 42-23 advantage at the intermission. The Hoosiers would get no closer than 15 points the rest of the way.
Lucas' performance marked the 13th time this season she has scored 20-or-more points. She finished the game with 992 career points and the sophomore's first chance to crack the 1,000-point total will come Sunday at Minnesota.
"Not a lot of people are that prolific of a scorer," Washington said. "For Maggie to reach that milestone, it speaks to her work ethic, her intelligence and she's just really good. I'm thrilled to be able to coach her."
The Lady Lions played Thursday without forward Marisa Wolfe (concussion-like symptoms). Washington said Wolfe is day-to-day, but is likely to miss Sunday's game.

It's a downright double whammy, learning of it the same week the county sewer system was Shanghaied into receivership.
It's a turn-the-other-cheek slap in the face.
Because they're trying -- again -- to keep Chris McNair out of prison. This time, they want a get-out-of-jail-free card from the highest office in the land.
McNair's lawyer, former U.S. Attorney Doug Jones, hopes to convince President Barack Obama to commute McNair's five-year sentence. It wouldn't pardon McNair, but would reduce his prison term.
So there you go, Jeffco. We are, I guess, supposed to forget the $850,000 McNair took in bribes from sewer contractors when he oversaw the sewer system.
We are to forget his bribery and conspiracy, and the $425,000 in restitution McNair still owes and will never be able to pay. We are to pretend his crimes did not usher into this county an era of corruption, mismanagement and greed that left us billions in debt.
McNair, we are to think, is just a fine old man who's been punished enough.
Ouch. It's like turning the other cheek for Mike Tyson.
Whether the commutation will be granted is another matter. Before the Justice Department decides what to recommend to the president, it leans on the U.S. Attorney in the district of conviction. That, in McNair's case, is U.S. Attorney Joyce Vance.
Vance and her division chiefs met at least twice in recent weeks to discuss McNair's request. The issue first came to the office about six weeks ago.
I asked Vance's office if she would vigorously fight the commutation -- since it is an indignity to rate-payers, an affront to prosecutors and a big wet raspberry to the honest people of the Northern District.
All I got was ... "No comment."
No indignation. No denial. No nothing.
A spokeswoman for the Justice Department in Washington confirmed Tuesday that McNair has applied for "commutation of sentence and remission of restitution." His application is under review by the Office of the Pardon Attorney.
And the Pardon Attorney's standards for considering clemency petitions are pretty clear:
"The views of the U.S. Attorney (where the charges were filed) are given considerable weight in determining what recommendations the Department should make to the President."
So Vance could probably stop this thing. Or she could work with her mentor, Jones, to give McNair hope.
Jones would say only that McNair is 85 years old and in declining health.
"We will attempt to get relief wherever we can find it," he said. That is his job.
But the real issue surrounding McNair is not, if we are being honest, his age or condition or guilt. It is his past.
Because the only reason we're discussing clemency is because McNair's daughter Denise was hatefully, awfully, unforgivingly murdered 47 years ago in the racist bombing of Sixteenth Street Baptist Church.
It was a despicable act, and the justice system's failure for decades to find all the bombers was its own kind of evil. But that puts us in a tough spot. Because the justice system cannot apologize to one crime victim by thumbing its nose at 600,000 more.
I feel for McNair. I respect what he once represented. But Chris McNair, civil rights hero, was not the man who succumbed to the lure of bribery. That was just Chris McNair, criminal.
McNair once needed justice. Now, it is the county's turn.

GREEN BAY, Wis. — If Packers coach Mike McCarthy didn't consciously notice how much his offense missed tight end Jermichael Finley during its Super Bowl championship run last year, he certainly realized it while reviewing cut-ups after the season.
"It was remarkable how much offense and different packages that we had in training camp that we never got to (during the season)," McCarthy said.
The Packers went into last season figuring that Finley would play a prominent role in the offense. The early returns supported that theory. Through four games, Finley had played more snaps (196) than any Green Bay wide receiver and had 21 receptions for a team-leading 301 yards and one touchdown. Only Antonio Gates of the Chargers had more receiving yards (386) among the league's tight ends.
But a lot of what the Packers had planned got left on the cutting room floor at FedEx Field. On the second play from scrimmage in the Oct. 10 game in Washington, Finley suffered a torn knee cartilage and was lost for the rest of the season.
Competition at tight end: Packers' Williams, Taylor stepping up
Packers camp report: Lang the starting left guard?
White House visit: Packers visit with Obama
Like any well-prepared team, the Packers adjusted. With Finley out, they used more three- and four-wide receiver formations, and quarterback Aaron Rodgers had an abundance of riches. Greg Jennings led the wideouts with 76 catches for 1,265 yards and 12 touchdowns. He was followed by Donald Driver (51-565-4), James Jones (50-679-5) and Jordy Nelson (45-582-2).
The Packers finished fifth in the league in passing offense (257.8 yards per game). Imagine how much better that prolific aerial attack can be with Finley in the lineup for 16 games.
"He's just adding more firepower to what we already have," Jennings said. "If we can keep him healthy and keep him involved, boy. He presents a lot of matchup situations and problems for opposing teams. ... He is a wide receiver in a tight end's body — a pretty big wide receiver, with great hands."
Finley, 24 and heading into his fourth season, is both big (6-5, 245) and versatile. He can line up anywhere a wide receiver can, including split out wide in the "X" position.
"I can line him up at receiver all day and play him there, but it's not the best thing for us and probably not the best thing for him," McCarthy said. "But he has that kind of ability."
Finley continued to work on his wide receiver type ability during the offseason in Minneapolis, where he trained with Arizona's Larry Fitzgerald and other NFL wide receivers. Former 49ers receivers coach Jerry Sullivan was also there, and he helped sharpen Finley's skills.
"He was coaching us up and showing us different techniques," Finley said of Sullivan. "I got some great work, and I'm probably in the best shape of my life right now."
It's been more than 10 months since Finley played in a game, but there doesn't appear to be any concern about his knee. He was held out of the Packers' preseason opener in Cleveland last Saturday, so he is pumped up about playing Friday night, when Fitzgerald and the Cardinals come to Lambeau.
"I'm doing good," Finley said. "I feel great, and I'm going to be rolling Friday. I'm eager, starving, thirsty — all of them. I'm just ready to play some football and do what I do best."
Last year, Finley coined the term YOTTO (Year of the Take Over) to describe what the Packers were going to accomplish during the 2010 season. He turned out to be prescient. Unfortunately, he didn't enjoy the Super Bowl title as much as his teammates.
In fact, Finley admitted he was a bit angry in the locker room at Cowboys Stadium last Feb. 6 after the Packers beat the Steelers, 31-25, in Super Bowl XLV. Instead of going out to celebrate with the rest of the team, he went back to the hotel and went to bed.
"That was my celebration," Finley said. "It was bittersweet, because I'm a competitor and I want to be on the field. That's a life dream. That's one you throw on your bucket list — to get to the Super Bowl and, of course, win it."
So what can we expect from the Packers this season?
"It's YOTTO Part II, baby," Finley said, laughing.
This time, Finley plans to play a starring role instead of ending up on the cutting room floor.

Since 1987, professional musicians all over the world have made the superb Ibanez SR Series of basses their weapon of choice both in the studio and onstage. Thanks to the smooth playability, powerful dynamic response and impressive tonal versatility, the Ibanez SR 305 5-string electric bass guitar adapts to any playing style and musical genre with ease.
The Ibanez SR305 body features delicately shaped contours that are designed to facilitate any player's style, so that whoever pickups up this bass feels like they've been playing it all their lives. Though it may be a 5-string model, the profile is slender and light in weight. The body has been built from agathis, a tonewood that has a delicate balance between brightness and warmth that makes it incredibly versatile. The body has been treated to an Iron Pewter finish.
The neck of the SR305 offers a very comfortable playing experience. Built from a hardy maple/rosewood blend, and paired with a rosewood fingerboard, everyone will appreciate the effortless playability afforded by this fantastic model. Thanks to the design team at Ibanez, each and every one of the 24-frets of this 5-string model is within a comfortable reach, with your path guided by the dot position inlays.
The Ibanez SR305 is fitted with two CAP EXF-N2 pickups in the neck and bridge positions. The pickups are controlled with individual tone knobs controlling the bridge and neck pickups, and a master volume knob, which is a simple yet powerful layout thanks to the impressive tonal complexity of the agathis/maple/rosewood combination. Not only that, but the Style Sweeper 3-band EQ controls give you a huge range of control, enabling you to boost mids for a punchier sound, or scoop the mids out for a distinctive low-end rumble with high-end slap – the possibilities are endless and all within easy reach.
The body is equipped with an accu-cast B125 bridge, which keeps strings anchor securely to provide optimum intonation and tension. Not only does this give your tone incredible power and sustain, but also gives you greater confidence in this model's ability to perform.
Whether you're a beginner/intermediate/experienced, are looking to make the move up from a 4-string model, or need a reliable gigging backup, the Ibanez SR305 5-string bass guitar would make a fantastic addition to any bassist's collection.

Soldiers' remains must be treated with respect
It was deeply troubling to learn that hundreds of our brave soldiers who gave all by giving their lives for our freedom and country were given no respect by "disposing" of their remains with the common garbage. The thought is appalling and the Air Force and whomever authorized this practice should be ashamed. The responsible individuals should all be dismissed from top to bottom. This was definitely an order that should not have been carried out, no matter who ordered it, and someone along the chain of command, right down to the lowest soldier, should have stepped up and said something to prevent it.
Those remains were entrusted to the Air Force to be treated with respect and interred with the full respect that is due to our bravest U.S. soldiers who sacrificed their lives for us. I truly hope that steps are taken to give soldiers, both living and dead, the high degree of respect that they truly deserve. God bless all of our soldiers. You are truly our heroes!

Require every retiree to pay state income tax
Albany is providing modest tax cuts for 4.4 million low- and moderate-income New Yorkers. A couple with a taxable income of $80,000, for example, will see a 2012 tax bill of $5,160, or a savings of $320. Retirees in the private sector who have taxable pensions of $80,000 will also have a tax liability of $5,160. Government employees and politicians who collect the same amount in their pensions are exempt from New York State income tax. They have no tax liability.
In order for the state to erase part of the increasing budget deficit, civil service retirees should have the same tax structure as everyone else in the state.

Catholics in Africa embrace core beliefs
Back in the 1930s, our geography books depicted the continent of Africa as being uncivilized, with natives scantily clad, faces grotesquely painted, holding long spears as ready for war. Yes, there were articles relating a handful of white missionaries who wanted to convert the pagans. Africa was referred to as "The Dark Continent."
Recently, very early on a Sunday morning, I watched on the Eternal Word Television Network as Pope Benedict XVI offered Holy Mass in Latin. His homily to the thousands of Benin natives was delivered in French, Portuguese and English. At the Intercession, a long line of colorfully dressed natives presented him with a vast array of Benin products while choirs sang and played native instruments. Later, hundreds of vested native clergy offered Holy Communion to a very reverent congregation.
The pope's message to Africa was to inculcate tolerance, but without compromising the church's core beliefs. It is a message we should all embrace. Western society expects -- no, demands -- tolerance and acceptance without limits. We have lost sight of who we really are. The Catholic Church began with a message that society at large did not want to hear, and our forefathers bled for it.
If darkness is the absence of light, then Africa, it seems, isn't a "Dark Continent" after all.

Investing in state parks will give economy a boost
Included in last week's flurry of economic initiatives from the Cuomo administration was some good news for New York State's park system. The $1 billion Infrastructure Investment Act, to address the state's aging infrastructure, includes park rehabilitation. While the details are yet to come, Parks & Trails New York (PTNY) applauds the administration and legislative leaders for recognizing the strong connection between economic vitality and outdoor recreation.
PTNY's 2009 report, "The NYS Park System: An Economic Asset to the Empire State," showed that the system annually contributes $1.9 billion to the state's economy -- a 5-to-1 return on investment.
Despite New York's legacy as a leader in parks and conservation and our park system's importance to the economy, our state parks remain chronically underfunded. While the most visible threat to the park system came in 2010, when 88 parks and historic sites were threatened with closure, the real long-term threat may very well be the system's crumbling infrastructure.
The Parks Agency estimates the capital backlog at $1 billion. The Niagara region alone faces nearly $138 million in infrastructure needs. This includes critical safety repairs such as rehabilitating water, sewage, storm-water and electrical systems in Niagara Falls State Park and rehabilitating campground facilities at Evangola State Park.
Investing in our state park system must be a part of any effort to make New York's economy sustainable and create jobs. The Infrastructure Investment Act is a positive first step in addressing this backlog and ensuring New York's parks and conservation legacy remains intact.

Buffalo should repair its damaged sidewalks
After returning from a brief walk, I was dismayed to see the horrendous condition of our city sidewalks. I am agile enough to dodge the pitfalls of holes, patches and, worse, the raised walks caused by city trees and/or neglect. I can imagine how difficult it must be for the elderly, impaired or handicapped. You see many older citizens walking in the curb lane in the street because that is the only level ground they can find.
How many times have you watched as those with less than athletic ability slowly amble along the sidewalks? If they fall and break a hip, they're in serious trouble. It's sad to see because this is often their only means of fresh air, exercise or a trip to the store. What will it take for the city to return to its long-forgotten practice of organized repair or replacement?
If it falls on the homeowner to be responsible, then we need the city to provide us with an inspection of the walks. Just take a minute to walk down Standish or Blantyre or most any street to see some areas six inches or greater in the height of the walks where tree roots have damaged them. This makes shoveling or pushing strollers almost impossible. These conditions have existed for years!
I would hope the mayor and his councilmen have some sort of concern for the citizens they represent. Our councilman has more than enough time for festival signs and lighting, and other "show and tell" promos, but not enough for the basic types of responsibilities he and his fellow councilmen are elected to provide. Enough is enough -- before someone gets injured, sued or worse, get the job done.

The case of Trayvon Martin, a black teenager killed by a neighborhood watch volunteer in Sanford, Florida, has sparked a fierce debate across the United States on race and justice. Since the release of the 911 call, attention to the case has skyrocketed. Trayvon's death, which President Obama called a "national tragedy," has brought thousands into the streets to rally for George Zimmerman's arrest. It has generated mass interest across social networking sites and garnered reactions from top media and political personalities. It is also transforming the hoodie into a modern civil rights icon.
Created by GlobalPost on Mar 28, 2012

Trayvon Martin Case: A timeline has no followers yet. Be the first one to follow.
In an enhanced video, ABC News discovered a mark on the back of George Zimmerman's head. Zimmerman had claimed that Trayvon Martin slammed his head on the ground before he shot the unarmed teenager.
The media website Gawker reports that e-mail and social network accounts belonging to the slain Florida teenager Trayvon Martin appear to have been hacked by a white supremacist.
At least one of Trayvon's e-mail accounts has been hacked in an attempt to smear the boy as a drug user who brought his killing on himself.
Forced into hiding, David and Elaine McClain have now hired a local law firm 'to protect their interests' and safety.
Police video of George Zimmerman after his arrest does not show alleged injuries. In the CCTV footage Zimmerman does not appear to have a broken nose or head injury.
Rep. Bobby Rush (D-Ill.) made a statement by wearing a hoodie onto the House floor and saying, "Just because someone wears a hoodie does not make them a hoodlum." Rep. Gregg Harper tried to interrupt his statement on the technicality that lawmakers aren't allowed to wear hats on the floor, and Rush was eventually escorted off the floor.
A request for Trayvon Martin's record at the Department of Juvenile Justice revealed that he had no record, but reports emerged of two suspensions from school, one for possessing small amounts of marijuana. The Martin family's lawyer said it was irrelevant to the case.
Trayvon's parents, Tracy Martin and Sybrina Fulton, spoke at a briefing on Capital Hill which was organized by House Democrats to address hate crimes and racial profiling.
Geraldo Rivera issued a written apology for his controversial "hoodie" remark, saying that "by putting responsibility on what kids wear instead of how people react to them I have obscured the main point that someone shot and killed an unarmed teenager."
House Democrats blasted the Sanford police for mishandling the case, with Congresswoman Frederica Wilson saying Martin was the victim of a "botched police investigation."
Sanford police revealed Zimmerman's account of the events, saying he lost track of Trayvon as he walked back to his car and was approached from behind and struck by the teenager.
Joe Oliver came out in defense of his friend, Zimmerman, saying, "He's a caring human being. I mean, he took a man's life and he has no idea what to do about it. He's extremely remorseful about it." Craig Sonner, Zimmerman's legal adviser, said that Zimmerman feared for his life.
A CNN/ORC International poll released on this day showed that nearly three quarters of Americans believed that Zimmerman should be arrested (67 percent of whites and 86 percent of non-whites).
The New Black Panther party (with no affiliation to the Black Panthers of the '60s and '70s) offered a reward of $10,000 for Zimmerman "alive, not dead or harmed." Their leader Mikhail Muhammad said, "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. … If the government won't do the job, we'll do it."
John Carnduff Stewart of Melbourne Beach was arrested for sending threatening emails to Sanford Police Chief Lee. An excerpt read, "You [expletive] son of a bitch. You and your family deserve to be hunted down and shot like a dog, just like Trayvon Martin."
Fox News host Geraldo Rivera landed himself in controversy for this statement: "I am urging the parents of black and Latino youngsters particularly to not let their children go out wearing hoodies."
President Barack Obama addressed the incident in very personal terms at a press conference, saying, "If I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon." While not commenting on the legal matters of the case, Obama called on the nation to do some soul-searching and commended the authorities for looking further into the case.
Rallies and marches were held in Los Angeles and Sanford, Fl., with Rev. Al Sharpton making an impassioned plea for justice at the Sanford rally. People traveled from afar to attend the rallies, by the carload and busload.
Sanford Police Chief Bill Lee did step down "temporarily" on the same day, saying, "My role as the leader of this agency has become a distraction from the investigation." The case also ignited debate over Florida's controversial Stand Your Ground law, which some said made prosecuting Zimmerman harder.
A "million hoodie march" in New York City drew at least a thousand people in a rally in support of Trayvon. Florida congresswoman Frederica Wilson, a member of the Congressional Black Caucus, called on the Sanford police chief to step down over the handling of the case. "No drug tests. No alcohol tests. No lie detector tests. It's just his word that he felt threatened, so therefore he shot to kill. That is unacceptable," she said.
A state attorney announced that a Seminole County grand jury would investigate the Trayvon Martin case, handing down a decision on April 10.
Trayvon's parents renewed calls for Zimmerman to be arrested after the release of the 911 tapes, and college students gathered outside the Seminole County criminal courts to protest the incident which they felt was a case of racial profiling. The FBI and Justice Department also opened investigations into the handling of the case.
March 17, 2012: The 911 tapes from Zimmerman's calls to the police were released on this date, raising questions about Zimmerman's claim of self-defense. They showed that the police dispatcher told Zimmerman not to follow Trayvon, but Zimmerman disregarded the advice.
TIME noted that this was the day Trayvon's parents Tracy Martin and Sybrina Fulton created a petition on Change.org calling for the prosecution of Zimmerman. To date, the petition has garnered 1.5 million signatures.
Trayvon was shot while walking home from a trip to the convenience story. The case did not get coverage at the national level and details at this point where sketchy, however TIME credited social media and activism sites with boosting the signal about the case.

East African Cardamom Tea
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 3 mins
I just tried this tea and it was lovely with Earl Grey. Not liking the idea of ground cardamom in tea I switched the recipe to using the full pods and steeped them with my tea leaves. Originally posted for ZWT7, Africa. Modified from, www.congocookbook.com.
Ingredients Nutrition
- cold water (three to six cups)
- 3 -4 teaspoons tea (Earl Grey, English Breakfast, Irish Breakfast, etc.)
- 6 green cardamom pods, bruised
- honey or sugar, to taste
- milk (I use homemade almond milk to be dairy free)
- In a saucepan or tea kettle heat the water to a near boil. Transfer the water to a teapot and add the tea leaves, and bruised cardamom pods, steep tea as normal.
- Pour the tea into cups with sugar or honey, and milk to taste.
- Stir, serve and enjoy!
Most Helpful
I crushed my cardamom pods with my mortar and then ground the seeds into a powder, I also floated a couple of whole pods in my tea pot. It had a very nice and exotic taste and a wonderful aroma. Made for the wonderful Witchin Kitchen team for ZWT #7.
I used orange pekoe black tea bags and added almond milk to my tea cup. I also made a large batch in my sun tea jar. Flavor was fantastic and very exotic. Thanks for posting! Made for Veg 'n Swap tag!
I used Earl Grey, something that I always keep on hand, and sweetened lightly with Splenda. Loved the cardamom added, it really added that something extra. I enjoyed this very much.

Brian Cowen on the Late Late Show
Harry McGee
The Late Late Show has become a rehab centre for prominent politicians whose careers are hitting a downer, providing a home-grown Oprah moment to give a little lift to flagging reputations.
It's did the trick for Bertie (his LLS show appearance in the run-up to the 2007 campaign did him no harm at all as he showed himself expert at striking exactly the right balance between serious politician and man of the people).
Tonight will be very important for Cowen. There has been no substantial interview with him for two months and tonight will tell us a lot about the measure of the man. He'll have to be able to give a strong impression to the public that he is in command and knows how to get the country out of this crisis when Pat Kenny asks hard questions (and, with his current affaris edge, he will ask hard questions).
He'll also to be able to lighten up and show a little of his human side, his talent for mimickry, his quick wit.
And as sure as rain on any give day this summer and autumn, Brian Cowen will be prevailed upon to belt out a song… which he will do!.
It's the Late Late and it's classed as light entertainment. But don't let that fool you. This is an enormous test. The history of the show is littered with dead political stiffs like Padraig Flynn's spectacular gaffe about Tom Gilmarting and then Northern secretary Peter Brooke's disastrous decision to sing 'My Darling Clementine' only days after an IRA bomb had killed several people in 1992.
Cowen is a bit like Eamon Dunphy. You are so mesmerised when they are outraged or outspoken or on the warpath that you forget how incredibly dull and boring they can be at other times. Cowen is ultra cautious and always on guard. So his biggest danger when asked about the economy will be giving long indeterminate and rambling answers, kicking to touch in slow motion.
The problem with the human side of the interview is that he just won't lighten up. He was on with the supreme witterer and interview-lite merchant Ryan Tubridy early this year and came across as stolid and wooden. The same happened with Pat Rabbitte. This kind of chat show dross is well outside their milieu and their comfort zone… unlike the chameleon Bertie who thrived.
Of course, it's important to hear what Cowen does say. Knowing his paranoid caution, he's going to let no cats out of any bags. But he needs to be able to communciate the sense of where the Government's thinking is and the kind of strategy they want to implement. And despite the Government media handlers dismissing my story about a State of the Nation address at every turn, you know, if it works out well for Cowen tonight… this might in fact be it.
But it will be keenly watched on all kinds of levels. This will be our first real chance to assess whether the dauphin prince of many years is really a king, or merely another man who would be king.

For a few months my neck has be bothering me. Only recently has it gotten worse. When I lean my organizer to the right side (downwards) I get dizzy and feel funny.

Everyone knows by now that Ajay Devgn has waged an all-out ideological war against the alleged monopolistic practices of Yash Raj Films.
In his fight against what he believes to be a monopolistic trade practice of Yash Raj Films Ajay Devgn is not alone. Filmmaker Prakash Jha, a long-standing friend of Devgn, has pitched in vocally with Ajay, going as far as to say he's willing to take on the various film guilds and associations in Bollywood in Devgn's fight against Yash Raj's alleged monopoly.
Says Prakash Jha, "I'm hundred percent with Ajay on this issue not only because he's a friend but because I know he's fighting a valid battle against a trade monopoly that exists. Those in the industry who want to sentimentalize the issue are only burying their heads in the sand hiding away from the truth."
Speaking out loud for the first time Prakash, who has worked extensively with Devgn in the past and is all set to start his new film Satyagrah with Devgn in the lead, expresses disgust at what he calls the alleged monopolistic practices of Yash Raj.
Says Jha, "With due respects to Mr Yash Chopra whom we all have the highest regard for, this kind of thing has to stop. Does Ajay Devgn seem like the kind of guy who would raise such an issue unless he was sure of his facts? I'm a hundred percent behind Ajay because I've been a victim of the monopoly."
Says Prakash, "Why should Ajay allow his film to suffer because of this monopoly? Son Of Sardaar is not a small film. Please understand, Ajay's fight doesn't concern the multiplex chain of theatres. It is the single screen theatres which still account for 30 percent of our total revenues that have been pressurized into such a monopolistic commitment during the release of Ek Tha Tiger. Agreed Eid is synonymous with Salman. So flooding theatres with Ek Tha Tiger during Eid made some sense. But why should only Jab Tak Hai Jaan get a major portion of the theatres during Diwali when there is enough room for two releases especially when the other release happens to be a big Ajay Devgn project? Yeh kya baat hui? Eid bhi hamara, Diwali bhi hamara. So what are other filmmakers supposed to do? Wait in the line?"

This semester, I'm living in New York City for my off-campus study adventure. Every day, I walk past the Empire State Building on the way to work and by The New York Times on the way home. At first, I reveled in this because it reminded me of where I was and the opportunities that I was taking hold of, but after a while, I adopted the true New York way. I stopped noticing the monuments I passed, and I didn't look twice when a cab would blare the horn. In the same way that we take the beauty of "The Hill" for granted, I began to focus on getting from place to place, just like when I was on campus, rushing from class to class.
I'm interning at Bret Adams Ltd., an acting and literary agency. I handle calls and information from actors, casting offices, and producers. I help with the new website, and I put together submissions that go straight to casting directors. In the evenings, I'm rehearsing for Sweeney Todd. So at 5:30, I run from Bret Adams to Theater Row Studios. As grateful as I am to take part in the business, my life is a whirlwind and I tend to get caught in it.
Several weeks back, I was taught a lesson. One agent offered me tickets to the opening of Lombardi, a Broadway play chronicling the life of football legend, Vince Lombardi. Growing up in Steeler nation, I was thrilled about seeing the show and attending the after party. I expected a small event nestled along Broadway, but I had no idea what was in store.
Rushing out of the subway, I ran to the theater in fear of missing the curtain. I passed through a group of NFL officials to my left and the Lombardi trophy to my right. The lobby was a sight in itself, but the play was incredible. I watched in astonishment as Dan Lauria (The Wonder Years dad) and Judith Light (Who's the Boss mom) recreated scenes from the lives of the Lombardis, and I left for the party with chills.
I passed over a red, velvet carpet and into a ballroom the size of A-Quad. The room was dim with curtains of crystal and white lights hanging from the ceiling. The silver furnishings were decorated with candles, illuminating the room and each important individual that walked through. I was in awe. I walked along the tables of football-themed cuisine and found a chair to sit in and observe. For the first time in weeks, I took in what was around me. I watched Rachel Dratch congratulate the cast, and I saw Vince Lombardi's daughter embrace Dan Lauria, thanking him for the brilliant portrayal of her late father. I was surrounded by people who were lucky enough to achieve success in the field that I aspire to. Even with such success, they were still enlightened by what they experienced and their passion emanated.
I felt so giddy afterward because it revived my senses and inspiration. We must try our hardest to appreciate the experiences we are presented with. An 8:30 a.m. class might feel daunting when you were up too late or it's cold outside, and walking the same route to work every day might seem monotonous, but life is in the details. Take a look around—you'll see.

What happened on the night the young Great War hero, Maurice Tabret, died at home in his bed? His doctor says he died from natural causes, but his nurse points a finger of suspicion at his beautiful wife, Stella...
Putting a twist on the classic murder mystery, this part thriller, part love story is by the enduringly popular playwright and novelist, W. Somerset Maugham, whose brilliance is discovered afresh in this vivid new production. This tense and graceful play is a fascinating exploration of love, devotion and family.
Through excellent direction from Matthew Dunster and splendid design from Anna Fleischle, Maugham's work is showcased beautifully; with small moments of comedy giving light relief to the otherwise dramatic and quite often poignant dialogue... Excellent performances are given from all the cast... stunning.Guildford Dragon
The theatre was packed. Guildford audiences know a good thing when they see it.British Theatre Guide
This is a play of twists and turns, with the truth slowly unravelling. Our perceptions are gradually overturned and we see that at the centre of this sad tale are different elements of pure love.Click Liverpool
This was a brilliantly acted and directed piece that took us into the constraints of the subject and the time it was set, evoking the period beautifully with good use of dialogue and costumes... A brilliant example of the well made play, it was good to see such an intelligent production.One Suffolk
A detailed and truthful exploration of relationships – maternal and matrimonial, sexual and sublimated, caring and careless – which is just as valid for 2012 as for 1928.Whats On Stage (2)
A fascinating character study which Maugham has written with great skill and is played with great vitality by the cast who keep things moving at an incredible speed... English Touring Theatre has indeed brought new life to a classic... an engaging lesson in relationships and the true importance of love in all its forms.East Anglian Daily Times
A well-crafted piece: intelligent, funny and engaging... the performances throughout are superb.Exeunt
English Touring Theatre is defined by the quality of the plays it produces with class and enigmatic humour. The Sacred Flame is no exception, with smart direction, a gorgeous set and a cast of class, of posture and deliberate articulation. This play by the late Somerset Maugham is done marvellous justice.One Stop Arts
Matthew Dunster's English Touring Theatre revival of this 1929 West End hit is first-rate ... It is difficult to imagine the play being better done.The Guardian
genuinely apt and eloquentThe Independent
Dunster's bold decision to revive The Sacred Flame has paid off. Maugham's play is packed with heady emotional impact and incisive empathy which leaves our loyalties and ethics torn.A Younger Theatre
