text: ACCESSION NUMBER:295372 FILE ID:TXT105 DATE:07/19/93 TITLE:IRAQ MUST ALLOW WEAPONS MONITORING (07/19/93) TEXT:*93071905.TXT IRAQ MUST ALLOW WEAPONS MONITORING (VOA Editorial) (410) (Following is an editorial, broadcast by the Voice of America July 19, reflecting the views of the U.S. government.) Much has been done to destroy or disable Iraqi weapons of mass destruction since the end of the Persian Gulf war two years ago. U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Politico-Military Affairs, Robert Gallucci, said recently that the International Atomic Energy Agency has sought to deter any efforts by Iraq to regenerate its nuclear weapons program. Gallucci said that 20 nuclear-related inspections since April 1991 "have forced Iraq to disclose, destroy, or render harmless all of the major nuclear weapons facilities and equipment that we are aware of, including several enrichment sites, research facilities, and weapons design facilities." Also there is currently in Iraq a U.N. chemical-destruction group, which is destroying thousands of chemical munitions. Other inspection teams have been sent to monitor Iraqi missile development. Despite such progress, Iraq still represents a potential threat. Iraq retains skilled personnel and a basic industrial capability to support programs to develop weapons of mass destruction. U.N. Security Council Resolution 687 prohibits Iraq from developing such weapons or the missiles to deliver them. U.N. Security Council Resolution 715 reasserted the need for long-term monitoring and inspections. The United States believes that Iraq will continue to test the U.N. resolve to persevere in its inspections. In the past, Iraq has used such tactics as delaying or refusing access to sites, denying information and harassing inspectors. Most recently, Iraq has prevented U.N. arms inspectors from sealing two missile testing sites. Earlier, Iraq barred a U.N. team from installing cameras at these sites to allow monitoring. In response, Vice President Al Gore said that Saddam Hussein "should understand very clearly that he cannot trifle with the world community where these inspections are concerned." Vice President Gore said the United Nations could ask Iraq to destroy the missile testing facilities if it will not allow the inspections. Gore said that if Saddam Hussein "will not do that, the United Nations could consider a range of options, one of which could include the use of force against those facilities." As President Bill Clinton has made clear, "the United States will continue to lead international efforts aimed at ensuring that the Iraqi regime does not threaten international peace and security."

Special to the Sun-Gazette
In September of 2011, Tropical Storm Lee caused flooding of a magnitude that could be expected only once every 500 years. Raging waters overflowed streambanks, destroyed buildings, uprooted trees and flushed everything that could be moved downstream.
In places where the waters slowed, debris was deposited, causing the once scenic creek banks to resemble open trash dumps.
Article Photos
After flood debris started finding its way into a favorite swimming hole, Gamble Township resident Joe Musto decided something had to be done. He contacted Clinton County CleanScapes (CCC) and the Loyalsock Creek Watershed Association (LCWA) to organize a cleanup along Butternut Grove Road.
There was so much trash scattered about, it was hard to know where to begin. Tires were everywhere, some so large they could not be moved. Many were embedded in sandy soil and had to be dug or pulled out.
Plastic also was everywhere: tarps, bags, household items. Much of the flood-related debris had to be untangled from downed trees and snags.
With so many partners involved, it took time to get organized, but in late April, 38 volunteers joined forces to remove the land-locked tires and flood-related debris from the stream bank.
The team included members of CCC and the LCWA, college students from Lock Haven University and Pennsylvania College of Technology, members of the Responsible Drilling Alliance and a group of Butternut Grove Road residents who provided not only labor but equipment for digging out and hauling trash.
In about four hours, 4.34 tons, or 8,680 pounds, of trash plus 16.88 tons, or 33,760 pounds, of tires were off the creek bank and stashed in roll-offs to be hauled away.
It was estimated that about 530 tires were removed from 2/10ths of a mile of stream bank.
The project was made possible by funding, discounts and supplies from the following businesses:

To summarize, the Mets now officially missed on their two recent free agent targets who were allegedly close to signing within the last week. In Bengie Molina's case, it was a blessing in disguise because it freed up more cash for the Mets to pursue a pitcher like Pineiro.
In Pineiro's case? Beats me. He's nothing special, but a two-year, $16 million contract sounds about right for his services (especially when you consider that Oliver Perez will make $24 million over the same time period). For those of you keeping score, Pineiro's total salary is also one million dollars less than that of Jason Marquis's deal with the Washington Nationals.
Davidoff indicates that the Mets may now set their sights on Ben Sheets and, well... duh. Let's be serious here: Isn't Ben Sheets really the best pitcher suited for the 2010 Mets? No one's seen him at his prime since 2008, but deep down we know he's very capable of finding that prime again. He lost 2009 due to injury. Despite positive reports from his throwing session on Wednesday, no one really knows what to expect from Sheets this season in terms of his durability.
Ben Sheets is a big-ticket gamble with a puncher's chance if he can stay healthy. He is the epitome of what we all believe about the 2010 Mets.
What other move is there?
Sign Jon Garland? I didn't realize the Mets were looking to upgrade on Tim Redding's rotation spot. Fernando Nieve and Nelson Figueroa are perfectly capable of doing that, thank you.
Take on Erik Bedard as the team reclamation project instead of Sheets? If the Mets are gambling outright on their starters, they should at least pursue the highest possible reward.
Trade for Bronson Arroyo? Get over yourself. The Reds will not take on Luis Castillo's contract in a salary dump deal because they have Brandon Phillips, and they won't give us back Phillips as a favor.
Give a call to the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim to inquire if Scott Kazmir is available now that Pineiro is in the fold? If I wanted a shaky, less-than-six-inning pitcher with legitimate injury concerns, I'd go ahead and just bring Pedro Martinez back.
Finding a starter sat squarely as Omar Minaya's number one priority this offseason. He did not accomplish this task. Yet. He still can, by bringing Ben Sheets to Flushing with a one-year deal with plenty of incentives and a player option. It's the only play Minaya has left. He cannot allow another season of a patchwork rotation without bringing in a new face that isn't a Triple-A retread. If Omar Minaya's gambling on the chances of the 2010 Mets being competitive, it's time he pushes all his remaining chips to the center of the table.
Go all in, Omar. Go get Ben Sheets.

How much are UFC ppv in America?
Just wondering, over here in uk there on a channel which costs £6 a month but the ppvs are free.
Are they like wwe 45 and 55 dollars? Expensive that
I pay $55 for SD, $65 for HD.
Wow 65 for hd that's £41...we get them in HD on a channel that is £6 a month. That's ridiculous haha that must piss you guys off.
Even the wwe ones 4/5 a year are free rest are £14.95 in HD
Thank god for streaming. I wouldn't even be a UFC fan if I had to pay for the PPV's.
60 dollars isn't bad if you're a bar or if you're splitting it up with your buddies.
But, 60 dollars for one individual to watch the PPV is insane.
Not really sure since i'm yet to buy one, but i think we can get the ppv for 10$ via UFC facebook stream here in Portugal.
You complaining about PPV prices is one of the main reason's why the UK will never get a PPV quality card.
North American's financially support the UFC through PPV's and advertising $$ for the Fox deal.
I wish in Canada we could pay a monthly fee and get everything covered,
Yea we're pretty lucky here in England. Sure the fights don't start till 3AM, but i simply record it and watch sunday morning.
Guess its not too bad in America if you've got a few mates to split it with. It would suck though if your the only one of your mates that likes UFC though! (as it is with me)
I live in switzerland and purchased UFC 148 for 10$. But as Life B Ez already mentioned, I'd also be willing to pay a lot more if I could only watch the fights primetime.
I gathered with friends and we played poker until 4AM, but by the time the mainevent started, I was way too tired and drunk to really enjoy it.

We were there during an El Nino when the water that rushed through the creek was so strong that it carried heavy large boulders, storm drain pipes and other debris and deposited it on the flood plain - the Smiser Mule property.
Another time the water knocked down the wall between the Smiser Mule property and the trailer park. Even without an El Nino, Wiley Canyon floods as it runs along the Smiser property.
Aside from the water problem, the only commercial development on the east side of the freeway, as it runs through the Santa Clarita Valley, is at Lyons.
We should keep the commerical development on the west side of the freeway as it is now. Let the Monteverde land rapers develop the Patty Mack property on the west side of the freeway if they have to!
Our city manager has too much power and because he is not an elected official he is not concerned about the will of the people. It is time that money bow to the needs of the environment and the needs of the citizens of our valley.
Those of us who moved here from the San Fernando Valley did so to get away from the congestion and to enjoy a rural atmosphere. When I moved out here, it took me 15 minutes to get to work. Five years agon when I retired, it took me 30-45 minutes to get to work traveling the same distance Calgrove to Nordhoff.

Rohrbaugh in 9mm. Probably Kahr PM40 in .40.
December 11, 2008, 11:49 PM
December 12, 2008, 12:03 AM
You could get a glock 23 and a 9mm conversion barrel and 9mm mags plus ammo cheaper than just a rohrbaug.
December 12, 2008, 12:22 AM
Well you're a new member. I don't know if you're new to guns, but if you are the Rohrbaugh isn't the way to go IMHO. The Rohrbaugh is expesive and is not fun to practice with. Aside from that it is my understanding that they don't advise shooting it very often if you arn't going to replace the springs.
I would have to vote Kel-Tec PF9. Now I don't want to sound like a hypocrite but the truth is the PF9 isn't much fun to shoot either. You can't go wrong with it though. If you really hate it your only down $250 and can probably sell it for $225 pretty easily. Just my .02 Good luck

Kahr PM9 for the win!:D:D:D
December 12, 2008, 12:57 AM
I've been studying this exact subject as of late. My Springfield XD-40 subcompact is too thick to be comfortable for me to conceal IWB (in waist band). Here's what you seem to be looking for: a 9mm or .40S&W single stack with thin profile grips. The Rohrbaugh has been mentioned, but last I checked, they run around $900-$1000, if you can find one. The Walther PPS 9mm is .91" wide at the thickest part of grip compared to about 1.25" for a Glock, XD, or 1911 with standard grip panels. The PPS doesn't excite me for some reason. It's not pretty to look at, and the ergonomics, especially the magazine release, look uncomfortable.
The Sig 239 is a single stack 9mm. It looks like heaven and probably shoots like heaven, too. But it's on the large side for a single stack. About 1.2" wide at the grip.
The thinnest 1911-style 9mm is the Springfield EMP, which is about 1.1" thick in the grip I think.
The new Kahr P380 measures less than .75" thick at the thickest part of the grip. But it's a .380. And those will probably be hard to find for a while until they are out for a while.
I've thought a lot about the Kahr PM and MK 9 and 40. I've never shot one. I've heard both good and bad things about them, with the majority been positive. If I ever get my hands on a PM9 to shoot and it proves reliable for me, I'd consider picking one up. They are in the same size league as the Ruger, Seecamp, Kel-Tec, etc. mouse guns.
Anyway, hope some of that helps or gives you some stuff to research. Kahr PM9, Walther PPS, Rohrbaugh R9, Springfield EMP, Sig 239, Kel-Tec PF-9. Start there.
December 12, 2008, 01:35 AM
I was just at the store checking out CCWs today.
The Glock 26 is a bit thinner--1.18". Yes, the PPS and all 9mm Kahrs are ~.90" and are nice and thin. However, the Kahrs have this huge, sharp slide release that juts out from the side and is completely out of place considering the otherwise sleek lines of the Kahrs.
I liked the PPS, but it seemed pricey compared to what you got (i.e., when compared the less expensive Glock). But I was very impressed with the Taurus Millenium Pro 111. It too is barely over an inch but had great ergonomics and is barely over $300. I also held a Kel-tec, but it was not in the same league as the other guns by any stretch--it would only be considered if I absolutely positively could not afford anything else.
The last .10th of an inch or so of grip size didn't really matter to me as much as the overall feel of the gun. So...I came away liking the Glock (also for the ability to buy a .22 slide for cheap practicing) altogether, but thinking about how tempting the Taurus was at its price.
I think the determining factor will be the status of my bank account on the day that I decide to buy.
December 12, 2008, 01:46 AM
O/J if you have occasion to head south a bit, the indoor range near here has all Kahr flavors in stock to rent.
That's where I learned that I couldn't live without them!
We're 180 miles south of the border in Chico.
December 12, 2008, 07:50 AM
If you don't want to spend the money for the Rohrbaugh, which is a very good gun, you could look at the Kel-Tec PF-9. I have one and it has been flawless. Not much bigger than the Rohrbaugh.
December 12, 2008, 12:35 PM
Go hold a walther PPS. It's like a credit card that goes BANG.
December 12, 2008, 01:32 PM
Id say any of the Kahrs. Much more concealable than the Glock SC and XD sc.
December 12, 2008, 06:39 PM
If you shoot the PM9 and the PF9, I'm sure you'll end up with a PM9, at least I did.
December 12, 2008, 06:50 PM
the PPS is thin, and shoots nice too!
December 13, 2008, 02:54 AM
Springfield EMP 1911 style 9mm. I love mine. Heck of a gun in a small package. Very concealable. I can't say enough good things about it. Probably my favorite sidearm ever (ok....a tie with my Sig P220)
December 13, 2008, 03:43 AM
Stick with a 9mm. The .40 is just too punishing in a tiny gun. If it isn't pleasant to shoot, you won't practice and you may pick up bad habits to boot.
I have the Kahr MK9 and love it, and it is extremely pleasant to shoot, but it is heavy for its small size.
You might look at the CW9 as well as the PF9 and the Walther PPS is certainly a candidate.
December 13, 2008, 04:00 AM
EMP 9mm
December 13, 2008, 06:36 AM
You could get a glock 23 and a 9mm conversion barrel and 9mm mags plus ammo cheaper than just a rohrbaug.
But you'd still be stuck with a Glock.:barf:
December 13, 2008, 10:42 AM
I got a Skyy 9mm. Good size for CC. Only set me back $270.
December 13, 2008, 06:14 PM
kahr and keltec are the smallest FUNCTIONAL ones i've found. the Rohrbaugh is definitely pricey and i'm not sure if it's worth it. if it's strictly for concealed carry i'd take the aforementioned 2 over glock and XD. i own all of them and they definitely carry very differently.
December 13, 2008, 06:32 PM
"The thinnest 1911-style 9mm is the Springfield EMP, which is about 1.1" thick in the grip I think. "
Nope, I don't think so.
The thinnest 1911 is the STI LS9
December 13, 2008, 06:45 PM
I have a PM40 which is easy to carry and fun to shoot. I don't object to the recoil, but it definitely gets your attention.
I've had it for about 5 years. I saw one today at the gun store for $800. I don't know if I'd pay that for it, however.
Geezer Glide
December 13, 2008, 08:19 PM
For about the same money, you could buy a Rohrbaugh or 4 PF-9's.
December 13, 2008, 08:40 PM
December 14, 2008, 08:53 AM
Hi Gunners,
I've got a Star BKM which is very flat, handles easily (even with my big hands), is light, and shoots to point of aim very well for a carry piece. Gotta' use ammo with a nicely rounded bullet shape or your aggressive hollow points will quickly dig gouges in the feed ramp impeding their use.
I've got mine loaded with either Glasers or BATs (European hotrod 9s which I've owned since the late 70s/ early 80s).
It's not tiny, like some of the new ultra 9mm packages; but, like I said; it works in my big hands.
Unfortunately, Star went belly up some years back. So, you've gotta' look for a pre-owned piece. For which, I am seeking, myself.
Just my opinion...but, I've handled a bunch of other tiny blasters which you really need a lot of practice to handle confidently.

Already been done, not sure when it was last updated though - but still good info:
Not sure if it is an optical illusion or not but the Rohrbaugh doesn't seem all that small.
I believe there is a dedicated forum for the gun. I also recall it being a machined work of art, but because of size, not something you'd shoot a thousand rounds a year through.
(where do I cast my vote for a j-frame?)

ABC's coverage leads the pack; reports authoritative, insightful - Mark Dawidziak
Long before the race for the White House was called by the networks for Barack Obama at 11 Tuesday night, we had a clear winner for best election coverage. Deciding that choice was as easy as A-B-C.
Building on its strong showings during this long year of primaries, debates, conventions and campaigns, the Alphabet Network framed the night's historic story with the most insight, clarity and authority.
The rule in network political coverage is much the same as it is in national campaigns - deliver a clear, compelling message and put together the best possible team. So ABC swept to victory by wisely relying on the tested triumvirate of anchor Charles Gibson, Diane Sawyer and Orange High School graduate George Stephanopoulos.
The networks didn't call Ohio for Obama until 9:30 p.m., and that call soon was questioned as premature by local stations. Would it be a stumble for the networks?
Perhaps, but, by then, the 24-hour news channels were becoming badly entangled in an overly complicated net of quick-cut graphics, high-tech gimmicks and cross-talk commentary.
It was a night that demonstrated less could give you so much more. Although Gibson and Stephanopoulos were armed with one of those precinct-specific touch screens, low-tech ruled the evening.
As the late Tim Russert proved with his legendary white board in 2000, the victory does not go to the news organization with the most bells and whistles, pundits and prognosticators. It goes to the network that can most effectively connect and communicate with viewers. It goes to those trusted voices who offer knowledge, experience and perception.
Echoing Russert's accurate 2000 election night prediction of "Florida, Florida, Florida," Sawyer was the one who summarized the evening by saying voting would come down to, "the economy, the economy, the economy." Or as Gibson quickly echoed, "jobs, jobs, jobs."
Other network and cable news organization cited polls or turned to expert commentators to make this point. And ABC had plenty of polling data and expert commentators of its own. But ABC never was overwhelmed by the experts and the technology.
That wasn't the case at the 24-hour cable channels, where panels of palavering pundits were packed onto starship-style sets.
John King, the monarch of the touch screen, earned MVP consideration for CNN's coverage, but his quiet authority was too often shouted down by panels offering sound and fury signifying very little.
Across the TV board, the simple approach worked best. What kept CBS on track throughout the night were the wise veteran voices of Bob Schieffer and Jeff Greenfield.
By contrast, NBC had a predictably difficult time coping with the loss of Russert, a graduate of John Carroll University and Cleveland State University's Cleveland-Marshall Law School. Recognizing this, anchor Brian Williams, Tom Brokaw and others frequently invoked the memory of Russert, who died at 58 in June.
It's "an extraordinary, historic evening," Williams said, "in short, the kind of night our colleague Tim Russert would have loved."
Brokaw, so comfortable for so many years in the primary anchor chair now occupied by Williams, seemed slightly ill at ease riding shotgun and filling in for his departed friend.
The heir to Russert's title of "TV's go-to political junkie" was Stephanopoulos, whose brand of quiet enthusiasm is markedly different but no less effective than the animated enthusiasm that NBC's late Washington bureau chief used to energize election nights.
The tone for the evening was set early. During the 6-7 hour, anchors and commentators stopped well short of predicting a favorable night for Obama, yet their carefully chosen words left no doubt about how they thought things would go.
At MSNBC, Keith Olbermann talked of "the kind of transitional thing most of us expected it to be." Well, that's Olbermann and MSNBC. But it wasn't much different than the descriptions voiced by David Gergen and William Bennett at CNN and Britt Hume and Bill Kristol on CNN.
Each used the word of the evening: historic.

Tony Romo continues to be a hot topic of conversation for all-star members of the Dallas Cowboys family. This time, it's two more Hall of Famers — Roger Staubach and Michael Irvin — getting in on the debate about the team's much-scrutinized quarterback.
Staubach, who quarterbacked the Cowboys to two Super Bowl titles during his illustrious career, continued to stand behind Romo's status as a top NFL passer in an interview with Dallas radio station KTCK.
"It's really a mystery to me why people don't understand how really good [Romo] is," Staubach said. "The things he can do and the plays he can make, I'm sure Troy [Aikman] would say the same."
Staubach was referring to fellow Cowboys Hall of Famer quarterback and three-time Super Bowl winner Troy Aikman. Back in March, Aikman showed his support for Romo by telling the Brownsville (Texas) Herald that Romo was already a better quarterback than he ever was.
Last week, current Cowboys Pro Bowl tight end Jason Witten echoed those remarks by calling Romo "elite" in an interview with the Abilene (Texas) Reporter-News.
Staubach still believes Romo, 32, can help the team win a Super Bowl if the Cowboys keep building their roster to complement him with the right offensive and defensive supporting cast. Irvin, however, sees the fact that LeBron James just won his first NBA title in Miami as just another reminder of the heat that's always on the talented Romo to deliver in Dallas.
"Now LeBron's got the title, who do we turn the thing to and say, 'When are you going to get one?' " Irvin said about Romo at a weekend charity event in Las Vegas, per the Dallas Morning News.
"That noose has been put around [Romo's] neck," the Hall of Fame wide receiver said. "It better be soon. [Cowboys owner] Jerry Jones has already said that. That's where it's going from here. It's going back to Tony Romo now."
Romo has been a very prolific and efficient quarterback for most of his six-year career as a starter, but it's just a fact that playing the most important position for the NFL's highest-profile team comes with the highest of expectations. Expect more Texas news outlets to keep asking Cowboys greats the same question until Romo answers in the Super Bowl.

Policy Development
Laws and policies can effect population health and reduce long-term medical and other costs. Examples include:
- Broad-based policies, such as smoking bans and laws
- Targeted laws, such as child safety seat laws
- Educational requirements, such as vaccinations for child care and school attendance
- Community-wide interventions, such as water fluoridation
- Identify what laws and policies promote public health and at what cost
- Draft evidence-based policies and legislation
- Justify funding decisions and proposals
- Support policies and legislation that promote the health of their communities and change policies and legislation that do not
The Community Guide in Action:
Laws to Lower Illegal Blood Alcohol Limit Save 400-600 Lives/Year
Community Guide finding: In 2000, the Community Guide scientific process revealed that state laws that lowered the illegal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit for automobile drivers from 0.10% to 0.08% reduced alcohol-related fatalities by a median of 7%.
Task Force Recommendation: With this evidence, the Community Preventive Services Task Force strongly recommended that all states pass 0.08% BAC laws.
Legislation: In October 2000, the President signed the Fiscal Year 2001 transportation appropriations bill, requiring states to pass the 0.08% BAC law by October 2003 or risk losing federal highway construction funds.
Result: Since the bill passed, all 50 states have enacted legislation dropping the legal blood alcohol concentration to 0.08%. With all states enacting and enforcing the 0.08% BAC laws, experts estimate 400-600 fewer alcohol-related deaths occur on our roadways each year.

Black teens have become quick targets
I cannot believe the atrocities that have been thrown upon some of our young black children. In some cities being black is as if you were born with a target on your back.
On Aug. 9, a Ferguson, Mo., teen along with his friend was merely walking down the street when a police officer racially profiled and fatally shot 18-year-old Michael Brown. He complied with the officer's commands, yet he was killed.
He was not doing anyone any harm. He was not robbing anyone, he was not menacing, he was merely walking down the street with his friend.
From the pictures that I have seen on the news, he was a big kid. But his size should have not been a threat to the police, especially if he obeyed their commands. He even held his hands up in submission.
Michael Brown's family was supposed to be taking him to college the next day, but instead they have to plan his funeral. This is so wrong in many capacities.
I feel in some instances, and in some places, that our black children are an endangered species. Our children represent our future, but due to them being killed and killing each other, our future looks bleak.
In my humble opinion, a lot of these cities that have racial unrest have police departments with the Barney Fife mentality. They are always ready to use their ''one bullet to kill.'' Ask questions later. This should never be the case. A mother should never have to bury her child.
I have no sons. I have grandsons, great-grandsons and nephews. I pray that they can grow up safely and be judged by their merit and not by the color of their skin.
I am not saying that all black youth are on the straight and narrow. But the ones who are trying to do good, trying to make their mark in this world, I hope that they get the chance.
I think as parents we should always hold our children close. Love them and cherish them. The way things are going in some places in the world, it may be the last time that you may see your child.

Guinea fowl protect from tick illnesses
I read an article, ''Ticks can cause meat allergies,'' then went out back and rewarded my guinea fowl with a big bowl of fresh birdseed.
In the past my wife and I were constantly picking ticks off our bodies while taking a shower because we live in a partly wooded and high grass area that was loaded with ticks. About five years ago I read on the Internet about guinea fowl feasting on bugs in the grass. I went down to Rogers Market and purchased six guineas. They always have guineas to auction every Friday. The auction starts at 6 p.m.
Training the wild birds that this was their home and releasing them ended our tick problem. We have not had a tick on us since the birds were released.
It is fun watching the birds marching across the grass in a straight line like British soldiers, sweeping our lawn of critters then marching on to my neighbors' yards.
Guinea are wild birds so don't plan on petting or getting close to them. They will not stay in an enclosed area and like to sleep in the pine trees where they are protected from the winter snow.
They do recognize strangers and squawk at them when they come on the property. In the winter you must feed them due to the lack of bugs.

Is Niles annex trying to bulldoze zoning?
Why did Howland allow Niles to annex land on Route 46 recently? I'm sure many Howland residents are not aware that not only did Howland trustees vote to allow Niles to annex land on 46, Niles will be responsible for enforcing zoning regulations on that land.
Why was this allowed to happen? Particularly when one of the biggest zoning issues in the township has been some elements that want to change regulations against ''outdoor'' markets on Route 46.
Did Howland trustees realize they could never undo those zoning rules that protect residents from more over-development and not lose their seats? Was this Niles annexation done as a way to allow someone to perhaps move their business to 46, particularly a business that current Howland zoning prohibits?
I guess we'll see.

CRTs' answers only cause more problems
Watching the news lately I have taken notice of the child refugee development on our southern border with Mexico. It is interesting to watch the CRTs' (Conservative, Republican, Tea Party) reaction to all of this. And as usual, their answer to the problem, if implemented, would be unworkable. A humanitarian disaster!
Stick a gun to the heads of little kids and tell them to go back home. Really, wow, what a Christian thing to do. Where did they think this idea up, in church on Sunday morning? Under our own refugee laws, most of these kids would be eligible for asylum. There is a good reason why parents in Central America would risk their own children's lives sending them north to our borders, and it has nothing to do with President Obama.
Drug gangs and corruption rule a lot of the countries in Central America and if children don't join the multitude of small gangs down there, there is a good chance they'll be killed. Henceforth they are refugees, not illegal immigrants.
We in the United States help fuel the drug problem in Central America with our appetite for illegal drugs, so we in the United States should sit down with those countries and help fix the problem (which started way before President Obama came into office) then send these children home.
Just like the healthcare issue or the climate change issue or the jobs issue or the reproductive rights issue, the CRTs' answers are not feasible, won't solve the problem; usually their answer creates a larger problem.
I will say this, the CRTs are consistent on one thing, they sure know how to say no to every solution brought to the table that they didn't think of.

Nixon's legacy of good negated by paranoia
''The Nixon resignation 40 years later,'' (Tribune Chronicle, Aug. 9, by Cal Thomas). The following is a quote from the Thomas column that is the reason for this letter.
''He (Nixon) thought he could get away with what other politicians had done, but forgot the rules are different for Republicans.'' Cal Thomas ends his Republican political paranoia with this ending statement, ''Still, he remains one of our most fascinating presidents and one we can be sure historians will 'kick' around for at least another 40 years.''
Richard M. Nixon was a shoo-in for re-election when his paranoia led him into a disastrous spiral of misadventures never before seen in partisan politics, despite Cal Thomas' statement "that other presidents had done this (obviously Democrats) before.'' The bard said ''that the good that men do is oft interred with their bones, but their evil lives on forever.''
Instead of trying to place blame on others for the resignation of President Nixon, he should have dwelt on the legacy of the good that he had done. Unfortunately, it was Nixon's paranoia that did him no good.
Forty years from now, maybe, less partisan writers will tell about some of the better inroads that Nixon brought to the nation as a whole, and forget about trying to blame others for what was solely Nixon's misbehavior.

Fire dept. concessions should be enough
The recent announcement from Youngstown City Hall about taking one fire truck and eight firefighters off the streets shouldn't sit well with anyone inside the city. It says the savings would be a hefty $1 million. And the mayor assures the cuts will come without jeopardizing the safety of residents and businesses because no firehouse is going to be shuttered.
What about the safety of your firefighters?
The mayor also noted it's a good plan because fires are declining, down from 412 in 2012 to 326 in 2013. If you take a look back through the year 2000, the lowest structure fire total was 338 in 2002. Does this really show a decline?
On Sept. 22, 2013, WFMJ-TV had a story that showed Youngstown leads in arson for a city its size. The chief said, ''Until you get control of and reduce the fire problem, it's understandable why you have the staffing. To have two, sometimes three, fires at a time is not that rare here.''
On Oct 8, 2013, on WKBN-TV, the chief stated, ''The key is to make sure all the trucks in the city are operational. We found 138 personnel fits well.''
In The Vindicator on March 13, 2014, an article stated the chief is taking a wait-and-see approach, because one year of a downturn does not mean there is a trend.
So, why now do the mayor and chief feel personnel should be reduced to 130 and idle one truck? Does shutting down one truck and reducing personnel sound like a good idea? HARDLY.
As far as saving the city money, let's see what the firefighters have done. In 2002, the safety forces got a .5 percent income tax passed; 45 percent for police, 35 percent for fire, 20 percent for capital improvement. This was to bring the department to a full staff of 140. Staffing never got to 140. A cost saving to the city.
Forward to 2008, firefighters stepped up again and accepted a 10-year step program. That's 10 years before a new hire reaches full pay. The city showed a savings of $1.4 to $1.6 million during the first two years.
As of today, there are 55 firefighters in the program. All are between step 1 ($24,000) and step 7 ($42,000). If you compare their wages to their veteran counterparts, it shows a savings of over $570,000 next year, with an additional $231,000 being saved by using firefighters as inspectors.
Firefighters have taken pay freezes since 2009, a savings of $1.425 million over five years.
Instead of cutting the muscle out of daily operations, why not cut the fat, starting with city hall? Firefighters have and always will do what's best for Youngstown, while City Council continues to do what is best for themselves, as is evident with the fight over redistricting.

Persistent lawbreakers will pay in the end
I had a relative that worked 20 years at the zoo taking care of animals. Every day he watered and fed them: a bond of man and beast. Being around there for so long, he felt he had earned the animals' respect. Time spent was his reasoning for this belief.
I recently found out that he had lost his job at the zoo, or so the story goes. One day he finally decided to put all the animals on the honor system. Before he went home, he unlocked and opened all the cages and told them all, ''Stay.''
The next morning, when he came to work, he was surprised to see all the animals had left their cages.
People in society are on the same honor system. We somehow expect them all to comply. As we can see, a large amount of people do what they feel is good for themselves, just as the animals in the zoo.
The story I told about the zoo is purely fictional, but dishonest people in society are real. There are people in this world that feel laws do not pertain to them.
Their logic is, ''as long as I don't get caught, I can do what I feel is right for me.''
This kind of thinking will, sooner or later, catch up with you. A good person is always at peace with themselves, but a self-serving lawbreaker can never escape guilt, knowing someday, justice will be served.
Believe it or not, there are people in this world that can't figure that out.
I truly wish life had a happy ending to it. In reality, that is not to be. Your last hope is judgment, if you are a believer, based on what you did in your life to others.
The ''Law of the Jungle'' is null and void in heaven.

Letter writer has food chain backwards
Cathy Lukasko has done it again! Shown a complete lack of knowledge to facts in her ''Government never made it on its own'' letter to the editor.
First off, the factory never would or did come first. The roads to build it and the money to make it happen always comes from the government before groundbreaking is done. It comes in the promise of loans, or even better, grants to help the company build it.
In fact, the bigger the factory, the more the government will put in. She has the whole concept backward. Remember when an automaker was looking for a spot to build its new car? States gave hundreds of millions of dollars to get that factory built in their state before any groundbreaking was done. The money never comes after the plant is built from the government. It only slowly, if ever, ''trickles down'' to the people in the way of a job. The taxes are paid for not as much by the company, but from workers.
We see that with the over $4 billion given to subsidize workers at Walmart.
Corporate America is draining the taxpayer money that is meant for fixing roads, building schools and helping the people. And we have people like Cathy supporting and promoting more of it. It is no wonder people who believe or follow such logic will never get it. They are stuck on themselves and think the world or people owe them.

Venezuelan business leaders are exploring opportunities to improve cooperation with Indonesian partners in trade and investment.
"We would like to improve trade and investment relations, including those in tourism, technology, chemicals and natural gas," Mirtha Quintero, manager for commercial promotion of Foreign Trade Bank of Venezuela (Bancoex), said at a seminar in Jakarta on Tuesday.
The trade mission seminar was held by a visiting 20-member Venezuelan delegation representing two governmental agencies and 13 companies from various sectors such as aluminum, agribusiness, beverages, chemicals, food and telecommunication technology.
"We can expand trade or investment relations because Venezuela has much potential, especially in natural resources," Diono Nurjadin of the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry said. "The bilateral trade between the two countries is still below US$100 million a year."
Dementio Marotta, vice president of Bancoex, hoped that the business seminar could attract more Indonesian businessmen to invest in Venezuela.
"We have abundant and various natural resources," Marotta said.
According to Marotta, Venezuela is the third country with largest oil reserves in the world after Saudi Arabia and Iran. It is also known as a producer of raw materials such as iron-steel, bauxite, gold, diamond, copper, coal, phosphate and zinc.
Over the past few years, bilateral trade between Indonesia and Venezuela increased from $34 million in 2000 to $96 million in 2009, according to Bancoex.
But according to data from the Indonesian Trade Ministry, Indonesia's exports to Venezuela reached $38.3 million and imports $1.3 million, resulting in a $37 million surplus for Indonesia.
Indonesia's exports to Venezuela mostly consist of technically specified natural rubber, fabrics, footwear and cotton, while Indonesia imports are rubber or plastic, cyclic amides, silicon dioxide and aluminum alloys from Venezuela.
The diplomatic relationship between the two countries was officially opened on Oct. 10, 1959. The first economic agreement was signed in Caracas on Sept. 26, 1991. (not)

JACKSON, MI – Entertaining and engaging shows for the entire family are coming to Jackson School of the Arts this spring and summer.
The school's Family Performance Series at Ensemble Theatre started in March and will continue once a month through August.
JSA Theatre Coordinator Peg Williams has used her extensive performing arts background to put together a series of shows that will include actors, magicians, musicians and puppeteers from around Michigan.
"The shows are not something that you're going to see every day," said Williams, who formerly headed the Dawn Theatre in Hillsdale. "Every show will not only be a performance, but a hands-on experience."
The School of the Arts' intimate Ensemble Theatre space, which seats around 50 people, will host the family theater series. The space is in the back of the first floor at the Art 634 building.
JSA's family theater series will coincide with Art 634's monthly Second Sunday open houses, which feature special deals and demonstrations from the studios and boutiques in the building. The May Second Sunday will actually be the third Sunday of the month (May 18) so the events do not clash with the Mother's Day holiday.
Jackson School of the Arts, which is on the second floor of Art 634, offers art, dance and theater classes for children and adults. For more information, check out the school's recently revamped website at jacksonarts.org.

Free skiing at keystone and breckenridge till Christmas!!! Need to fight for the consumer traffic!!! Or just keep doing things the same way and watch your earnings deteriorate!
Who do you think our clients are though? We need people to have enough money to think about skiing before VR can even worry about any other numbers.The snow always comes, the tourists might not.
Or just sell Breckenridge off. That mountain sucks compared to Vail and Beaver Creek. A-basin is legendary and Skistoned has a lot going for it, but I just don't get why Breck is a big deal.
maybe because it makes more money for the corportion than any of the other resorts? maybe because its in the best position to attract front range skiers? maybe because its the most visited ski area in the country?

I want you to ask yourself why we are here.
No, not in some deep, philosophical way, whether you believe in gods, or turtles all the way down.
And not as a series of random mutations.
And not even because we sat in a cinema on 16th November 2001 and a small boy said, "I'm Ron by the way, Ron Weasley."
Although you're getting closer.
We are here, at this URL, on this sunny Sunday morning, beause of the best boss I have ever had.

Just how hot does it need to be in order to be "hotter than hell"?
First, let's try to figure out just where Hell is located. Most religions describe Hell as existing deep underground. Presumably, Hell is the same distance from New York as it is from Beijing as it is from London, so, for argument's sake, let's stick it at the center of the Earth, in the planet's super-hot, iron core.
Now, scientists have yet to directly measure the temperature of the Earth's inner core, but most estimates put it at somewhere between 9,000 and 11,000 degrees Fahrenheit. That's pretty hot. Hot enough, in fact, to melt that iron-alloy ball under normal conditions, but the constant weight of the rest of the planet pressing down on it keeps the core, which is about one third the size of the moon, solid. (Hot enough to melt iron, but apparently not quite hot enough to melt one's eternally-damned soul.) [Read: How Much Does a Soul Weigh? ]
You might be wondering, "why is the center of the Earth so hot?" Well, it's the combination of two things. First, all the radioactive materials in the Earth generate heat. Second, there's the leftover heat from the formation of the planet. When all the matter that created Earth came together, it picked up kinetic energy as it did so. When it came to rest in a proto-Earth ball, that energy had to be conserved, and so it transformed into heat, which is still being slowly emitted.

Your doctor may be able to prescribe a dose of 50,000 - 100,000 IU. They can run a calculation based on your blood test and weight to see how often you take them and for how long, before switching you to a maintenance dose.
Keep in mind they are discovering Vitamin D cofactors that the skin produce from the fun and other very good reasons to get your vitamin D from the sun. So once you have good sun again you should try to get as much of it as you can; Vitamin D and some of the cofactors, can be stored in the body for several months.

Milwaukee playwright brings 'Great Expectations' into focus
Chicago — Charles Dickens is the most theatrical of the great novelists, but unless one adapts a novella like "A Christmas Carol" — or has the luxury of eight-plus hours, as in the acclaimed adaptation of "Nicholas Nickleby" — the length of his novels makes them difficult to stage.
I was therefore intrigued to see how Milwaukee's Gale Childs Daly had tackled the challenge of adapting "Great Expectations," which is not only one of Dickens' best novels, but also among the shortest. It's being staged by Chicago's Strawdog Theatre Company, a 70-seat storefront theater with a history of rethinking classic texts. »Read Full Article

WTMJ reporter ordered to appear for Alabama murder trial
A Milwaukee County judge on Tuesday ordered a local TV reporter to attend a murder trial next month in Alabama, where prosecutors say the reporter is a material witness.
Cody Holyoke, of WTMJ-TV (Channel 4) represented himself at a brief hearing before Circuit Judge David Borowski. Borowski said such requests from out-of-state courts are rare, and so he would presume it was "rather serious" case and request. He and Holyoke agreed that whether Holyoke may be able to invoke Alabama's reporter's shield law is an issue for the courts there. »Read Full Blog Post(8)

No one talks about art the way Fred Stonehouse talks about art. Like some of his paintings, there is an element of the circus sideshow in the way presents his ideas, surreal entertainments to be relished.

From the bleeding hosts and weeping Madonnas of his Catholic upbringing to the antique sideshow banners of state fairs, from the Day of the Dead artworks he collects and covets to the bizarre hybrid beings of beloved folk tales, Stonehouse cribs liberally from the history of art, popular culture, a rich array of visual sources and his own life experiences. »Read Full Blog Post

Brightwell Aquatics Restor - Liquid Coral Tissue Nutritional Supplement 500ml / 17oz
Product Manuals & Documentation
Encourages health, growth, reproduction, and vibrant coloration.
Provides important nutrients to corals and their allies during periods of stress induced by changes in lighting and/or prolonged exposure to excessive water temperature (often resulting in "bleaching").
Aids in tissue repair after corals have undergone fragmenting and captive propagation.
Does not require refrigeration.
Formulated by a marine scientist.
Technical Background
Brightwell Aquatics Restor is a complex of amino acids and fatty acids derived from marine fishes and crustaceans; it is a strong source of EPA, DHA, and other omega-3 fatty acids, as well as naturally-occuring pigments. Restor was specifically formulated for the care of corals and their allies that: have been recently placed into a new aquarium and are adjusting to new lighting; have recently been exposed to prolonged elevated temperatures (inducing expulsion of symbiotic zooxanthellae, known as "bleaching"); have suffered tissue damage either through fragmenting or propagation, or through the unwanted grazing activities of aquarium inhabitants. Research has shown that during bleaching events, some corals obtain the majority of their nutrients through capture of prey rather than by relying on zooxanthellae, until such time as the zooxanthellae have become adjusted to the change in lighting or re-established in the coral tissue. While the contents of Restor will not directly reverse coral bleaching, they will effectively provide nutrients required by the coral to potentially survive the period of time during which zooxanthellae are recovering or being reacquired; no express claims are made that corals who have suffered bleaching will recover when using this product, however it has generally been observed that corals obtaining the required nutrition (by actively feeding) during such an event have a higher rate of recovery. Using Restor to fortify plankton of the proper size range for the target organism(s) is an extremely effective means of providing those important substances.
Restor does not require refrigeration, however storage in a cool, shaded area will prolong the activity of the vitamins. Refrigeration will maximize the shelf-life of the product.
Instructions and Guidelines
Shake product well before using. Turn protein skimmer and other forms of mechanical filtration off prior to adding foods fortified with Restor to aquaria, and allow 10 - 15 minutes after feeding before resuming operation of filtration.
Target Feeding (recommended): Target feeding may be carried out with a lengthy piece of rigid air tubing, plastic syringe, pipette, dropper, or similar device; pour 5 ml (1 capful) into a small container and suck a portion of this into the feeding device, then slowly discharge the contents of the device 2 - 4" upstream of the target organism(s). Repeat these steps as deemed necessary. Rinse the portion (inside and outside) of the feeder that was placed into aquarium water before placing it into this bottle (if feeding directly from the bottle rather than from a separate container); failure to do so will contaminate the product and encourage it to decompose. Restor may be utilized as a food-soak; to do so, place food into a clean container, add up to 5 ml of Restor and allow 5 - 10 minutes for food to soak; target feed as directed. Broadcast Dispersal: Add up to 5 ml per 50 gallons of water in the entire aquarium system in an area of rapid water movement every two to three days for the first four weeks of use; thereafter, the dosage may be increased as desired.
Notes: Add no more than 5 ml total of liquid food suspensions per 50 gallons of water in the entire aquarium system daily for the first four weeks of use; thereafter, the dosage may be gradually increased as desired. Starting out at a low dosage and gradually increasing it with time will allow the biological filtration in the aquarium to adjust to the increase in nutrients and prevent water quality from deteriorating. This product is best utilized by target feeding specific invertebrates in an aquarium; in doing so, the majority of the complex may be consumed by the intended organisms rather than ending up in filtration media or indirectly impacting water quality (as often occurs when indescriminately "broadcast feeding").
Caution: Keep out of reach of children. Not for human consumption.

Moisture (max) 99.60%, crude protein (min) 0.30%, crude fat (min) 0.10%, crude fiber (min) 0%.

Thank you for visiting the Branchport United Methodist Church website. We believe that God calls all people to gather in a community of faith, to share in the Good News of Jesus Christ as we make disciples for the transformation of the world. We come together to strengthen our faith through worship, prayer, education, outreach, study, and fellowship as we grow and develop our spirituality and faithfulness. We try to be Christ-like in all that we do and live to the examples as seen through the written word of God.
If you are looking for a church home we would sincerely hope that you will join us some Sunday as we together travel and accept the challenges of discipleship and witness to the whole world of this wondrous love of Jesus Christ.
Psalms 23: The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through thevalley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
New Pastor of the Branchport UMC
February 1, 2016
Dear Friends and Members of the Branchport United Methodist Church,
Hello, my name is Kim Lyons and I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself. As of January 1, 2016, I replaced Sandi Pearl as Pastor of the Branchport UMC. Sandi has taken on the role of Full time Pastor at Bluff Point UMC as well as Director for The Living Well in Penn Yan. I am very excited to have this opportunity to lead your Congregation each Sunday morning. At this time, I am a Hired Lay Speaker and am working toward becoming a Licensed Pastor, hopefully, by this July.
I live in Rushville with my 3 children, Joe (20), Abby (17) and Alex (15). I currently work full time as a Pharmacy Technician at Rite Aid. Though the name on the building has changed a few times, I have been in the position for 23 years. That job allows me to provide for my children and gives me the flexibility necessary, being a single mother. But, I have been aware for several years that it is not what I want to do for the rest of my life. God's amazing grace has allowed me to see the purpose of placing me there and I try to be a light each day. I am also taking 2 classes at Finger Lakes Community College and am involved in a 34 week Disciple Bible study.
I have been a member of the Rushville United Methodist Church for over 13 years and am very involved in the Children's programs including Sunday School, Vacation Bible School and Youth Group. I have received much support over the past years from my church families, and the Pastors I have had the pleasure of working with have all had a large influence on me. God has called out to me, and I, a faithful steward, am answering the call.
In the few weeks I have been with your congregation I have been welcomed with open arms. I am truly grateful. Your church is beautiful and I have no doubt it holds a special place in many hearts. I look forward to this journey, especially in the celebration of a church that is 150 years old!
I look forward to meeting you in the near future and doing what we can as a faith community to open doors, open hearts and praise God!
Many wonderful Blessings to you,
Kim Lyons

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Dabo Swinney had been fielding ACC football kickoff questions from reporters for 38 minutes when he first took a long swig of water from a bottle of Dasani.
The quench was well-timed. Because Clemson's head football coach was in the act of being asked, finally, about the ascending momentum of the Ed O'Bannon case and whether Swinney supported the idea of compensating players beyond their scholarships.
"Mm-mmm. No," Swinney said. "Absolutely not."
O'Bannon, a former UCLA basketball star, is the lead plaintiff in a lawsuit that claims former college athletes are owed billions of dollars by the NCAA.
It was the topic of discussion at Swinney's table for the following seven minutes, largely while Swinney offered a discourse.
It was simultaneously a subject at assorted tables around the Grandover Resort's Grandview Ballroom with fellow ACC head coaches.
In fact, Maryland coach Randy Edsall was quite adamant he supports the players' case for banking money in exchange for their likenesses on video games and the millions in revenue they generate for universities.
"Kids are committed to institutions, not to the NCAA," Edsall told The Washington Post. "And the NCAA is using their likeness to make money, in my opinion. And that money is not going back to these kids."
In Swinney's case, his credentials are simple. In a persuasive speech class while attending the University of Alabama, he penned a paper promoting the purity of college athletics and arguing student-athletes should not be paid like professionals for their services.
"I still believe that," Swinney said. "The reason I feel the way I feel is, I've lived it."
Swinney began as a walk-on to the Crimson Tide, building his resume from the ground up.
"I went to school on student loans and (federal) Pell Grants (for students in financial need)," Swinney said. "When I got out of college, I owed $32,000, and I got put on scholarship (eventually). So I'm against professionalizing college athletics. We have that — that's called the NFL, arena league, CFL.
"To me, college athletics are a privilege."
Swinney added he is "100 percent in favor of enhancing scholarships" to help out college athletes and their families with backloaded stipends upon graduation or departure from a football commitment.
"The scholarships haven't changed. They're exactly the same as they were when I was in school," Swinney said. "But gas is higher, movies, dates and clothes are more expensive. The world has changed, but it hasn't been reflected in the scholarship, and I think that's wrong."
Swinney was the youngest of three boys, and the first in his family with a college diploma.
"I'm not for diminishing the value of an education," Swinney said. "Football was great, opened up a lot of opportunities for me. But my education is why I'm sitting here."
This was an intriguing stance for Swinney to take since Tigers senior cornerback Darius Robinson was named as one of six active football players to become an O'Bannon plaintiff — a landmark advancement for the ongoing case.
Robinson has not yet been made available to speak on his participation in the lawsuit.
"That's just something that he believes in. You know, his career's coming to an end, and that thing may go on for (years)," Swinney said. "But that's the way it ought to be. When guys believe in something, you want them to not be afraid to stand up and support something."
North Carolina State first-year coach Dave Doeren had more questions than answers on the hot-button topic.
"I'm not going to say they don't deserve things, because they make a lot of money for everybody, you know?" At the same time, where's the money going to come from? You've just got to be careful how it gets created."
Students in financial need no longer receive Pell Grants from the federal government when school is not in session.
"That hurts a lot of guys. Our guys stay on campus in the summer, and they get no money. To me, that's ridiculous," Doeren said. "That's just the state of our government. (But) to say that every student should get $2,000 per semester, and school's just got to figure out how to find that money — is that real?"
A flat per diem rate for every Division I football player would mean a financial burden for mid-major colleges like Doeren's former employer.
"At Northern Illinois, I knew we weren't going to have that money. So while the BCS schools were paying, we were going to be a school that couldn't do it," Doeren said. "So to me, if there's a way to do that without creating a huge 'have and have-not' (landscape) even more than it already is, then I would be real interested in that for the guys."
Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson was just as supportive, but just as stumped.
"I'm all for whatever we can do for the players, if they could find a way to make it reasonable," Johnson said. "Is it fair to guys if it's only need-based, or if it's other sports? I think that's part of the problem, is figuring out how to administer it."
Swinney did have a direct ally in the room.
"Wherever we can help the guys, that can be positive. But I'm not for this pay-for-play stuff," Boston College coach Steve Addazio said. "I'm into player welfare, but I think we do a great job with scholarships and everything else right now."

Miracles Abound
My daughter was a health food baby. That is, I brought her up on health foods. All fresh. Nothing packaged or processed. She could have been a poster child for whole foods.
When Lauren had choice, however, she chose another way. She wanted to be a regular girl who ate regular foods. When she could, it was ice cream and cake and white Wonder bread.
Once on her own, her cupboard had plenty of regular packaged non-real food super market fare.
Nevertheless, every now and then she would surprise me by saying something like, "You don't want to buy that. It's processed," or, "This is healthier."
Now to my surprise, she just bought a vegetable juicer, and is juicing carrots, apples, beets, celery, collard greens, tomatoes, and sweet potatoes, bringing great fresh juices over for me and going on a juice fast herself! Her two sensations were Granny Smith apple juice with ginger root and tomato with fresh Jalepeno and onion. These were so extra good, I could really live on them -- for a day anyway.
She's bringing me the pulp as well, and I was going to make a wonderful soup, only the soup wasn't so great, and there is so much pulp, it could fill up my house in two days. It will have to mostly go for compost.
I think Lauren's juicing and her return to her original upbringing count as a miracle, don't you? Miracles abound!
Have you had any miracles lately?

1484: Pesticides cause navigation failure in bees - updated
Biosciences Knowledge Transfer Network, Crop Protection Association, Bayer Cropscience
Year of Publication2012
Since the publication of research which indicated that current testing of pesticides may not be picking up subtle changes in the behaviour of beneficial insects which are critical to their survival the Crop Protection Association and manufacturers Bayer have argued that the products properly-used should have no impact on bee populations. Also that the statutory controls on pesticide approval include an assessment of risk to bee health

Thank you!!! I'm thrilled - I've never felt so comfortable anywhere as I do when I come to your studio. The last time I left I felt - nurtured. That is the best way to describe it.
The "Yoga Sutras of Patanjali," yoga's source text, is a detailed guidebook, a how-to manual for the focusing of awareness on a chosen object or in a chosen direction of attention inward should be correctly adapted for each individual and practiced with consistency, conviction and enthusiasm over the course of many years. Through regular practice, the curse of codependency and the spell of addiction can be broken. Whether it is through long-term sobriety (or kaivalya), freedom (or paramananda), or perpetual and long-enduring joy, we can ultimately break the cycle of codependency and addiction. This inner evolution offers the sweet taste of true self-awareness to recovering addicts.
Sandy has been received training with Swami Sitaramananda and Durga for Recovery Yoga. Her own journey provides great insight and combines this with her structural trainings. This program's format begins as a closed group session for 15 weeks. We add new groups on a "as needed basis". Some scholarships available. Connect with Sandy direct at email@example.com regarding how to form a group. Part of the session is through an online program (free).
Reservations required. Chairs limited. These classes are appropriate for those with MS, Parkinson's Disease, Fibromyalgia, and those students who use walkers, canes, and wheelchairs. For those who are able, some standing (with support) and floor those remaining in the chair. Sandy Hicks, has received over 450 hours of Therapeutic-Specific training and over 1500 hours of class teaching in Therapeutic and Adaptive Yoga. Classes are offered in Canandaigua, East Bloomfield and Honeoye Falls or your home or office. Practicing yoga is both a physical endeavor and a personal journey for any student. Beginning yoga requires personal commitment as well as support and guidance. If you live with a disability, it is especially important to believe yoga is not only possible for you, but that you can experience its wonder and benefits just like anyone else.
4 Classes $75.
Canandaigua: If interested let us know!
Bloomfield: Full (you may email me for waiting list)
Many cancer patients must go through chemotherapy. Chemotherapy, however, has negative side effects during and after treatment. We offer free, unlimited yoga for anyone receiving treatment for cancer. Participate in as many classes as you would like with Sandy for 3 months at any donation you like. Private sessions may be offered at a reduced rate.
Scientific studies conducted over the past 35 years have shown that yoga, alone or as an adjunct to traditional therapies, can boost the immune system, decrease chronic stress and increase energy. Study participants reported feeling better. For aspiring Yoga teachers – see our upcoming Yoga for Cancer Thrivers program.
If you or someone you know is receiving treatment for cancer and would like to add a yoga practice free of charge, please contact Sandy. Local article: YogaforCancerPatients
Providing a safe environment and discover what the body can do. Your specially trained instructor, Sandy Hicks, will provide guidance throughout your class.
Students will discover an inner and external trust in their movements. These well rounded sessions also incorporate breath work and various relaxation techniques. Please call (585) 703-4676 or use our contact form for further information.
Due to allergies of other students, at this time, we are unable to offer with your seeing-eyed companion.
Size Can Matter in Yoga. Most of the components of Yoga can of course be practiced uniformly by students regardless of size and age. However many of the asanas (postures) and pranayama (breath work) need to be modified. It is important to find a qualified teacher. If you have departed from a yoga class and experienced nausea, vertigo, heart palpitations, or exhaustion, seek a teacher with proper training – as this should not occur.
• Joints are more stressed in overweight students and weight bearing postures should be altered accordingly.
• The approach to the squeeze and soak (BKS Iyengar) of the organs
• Twists, Forward Folds, Laterals, Standing Postures /Strength postures and Inversions are performed but in a unique way.
Unfortunately, round bodied students attend classes that are not instructed properly and their chance of a regular practice becomes non-existent. They don't keep a regular practice because they weren't comfortable, they felt pain, became nauseous or perhaps they felt the postures were cumbersome for their body. With regular weekly practices, our brains's impressions begin to transform, and in turn we make better decisions and choices; hence weight loss of that is a goal.
With the emergence of the internet, it's sad to say some teachers use this as a source in their quest to learn to teach different demographics. This is a form of "spiritual bypass". Any teacher, in my opinion, that prefers to be a student of a computer over a student of a trained mentor, guru or institute, should not teach. The best information comes from human energy not a computer. Due your due diligence in choosing a facility to practice yoga: read bios, set up a consult, ask questions, request referrals to speak to.
At present, Thursday evenings at 8pm is our class time for folks who feel they will benefit from a specially sequenced class with specific pranayama exercises and a overtone of mindfulness philosophy.
