While working on an entirely different post for this week, I was hit by the impact of Robin Williams' death. I'm sure his death has deeply affected many in our CreakyJoints community—not just because we lost a great artist who inspired us to keep fighting each day and made our painful moments a little bit lighter, but because he was suffering in silence, like so many of us.
While I was encouraged—and appreciated—that many in my Facebook and Twitter communities expressed their compassion and concern about people suffering with depression, I was incredibly frustrated by the many comments that depressed people "just need to ask for help." I appreciate the effort to understand depression and anxiety and to recognize these conditions. But the assumption is that Robin Williams, a man who was very honest about his inner demons, didn't ask for help. Maybe he did.
Depression often goes hand in hand with arthritis—whether it is a co-morbidity, a symptom of living with chronic illness, or actually caused by your disease. I'm sure many of you relate to what Robin Williams was battling each day. While we can never assume to know the pressures one feels in their own life, our community understands depression and anxiety and the pain and paralysis it brings.
I know depression and anxiety—and it's difficult to share. When I'm not depressed, I'm anxious. And when I'm in an extreme state of depression, it is extremely difficult to ask for help.
What does asking for help look like? It could be asking a friend to lunch, to broach the topic of your depression over good food you don't have to cook yourself. It could be sending a text to a friend or family member just to say hello. It could be inviting someone over, in the hopes it will prompt more conversation and connection to lift you and help you fight through that day. It could be dropping off the grid, when you are normally active and involved in the life of your friends and family. I have done all these things—only to be met with rejection. How many of you relate? I'm afraid our healthy friends expect us to raise a red flag, turn on the fire alarm, and jump up and down to grab their attention. Our pleas for help are often silent and missed—the days without showers, while you are holed up in your home, watching hours of TV. Or perhaps they are masked by incredible success at your job, a busy schedule with children and the fake smile you have mastered. Living in a world that is more accommodating, kind and helpful to those of us with diseases requires more energy from the healthy population than I think they are ready to give right now.
I hope this changes in the future, but my hope for you, right now, is to find just one person who will hear your pleas for help. Focus on finding just one. I am lucky to live with an amazing boyfriend who has endured 13 years of my mental and physical struggles—and he gets it. He understands that I would love nothing more than to kick the ass of depression, anxiety, arthritis and my other illnesses. He knows I would never choose to live this way and I do whatever I can to fight them. He knows that sometimes the internal fight is not enough. Sometimes medications aren't enough. Sometimes the disease starts to win and because I have lupus, depression can be a sign that my disease is advancing. He knows that I love having fun, seeing my friends, singing, playing piano and guitar, and being outdoors—and when those things aren't happening, something is wrong. That doesn't mean it's easy for him and it doesn't mean I'm helpless. But he is my one person who hears my pleas for help in all their various forms—and he can, in turn, reach out to family and friends for more help.
And so that is what I wish for you—to find your one person in your circle who will look for the signals that you need more help than you are getting. Give them this article. Explain to them that sometimes when you are at your worst, you won't even recognize that you need help. And I hope that by knowing someone is in your corner, your internal pain will ease up just a bit.

Clemence Poesy
Since Marion Cotillard won her Oscar and proceeded to take over Hollywood, French actresses have been in high demand. Clemence Poesy seems poised to follow suit, having charmed audiences as Fleur Delacour in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and alongside Colin Farrell in In Bruges. Suddenly, Poesy finds herself in the calm before the storm. With a supporting role in Danny Boyle's upcoming Oscar bait 127 Hours, and a return to Hogwarts in the final two Harry Potter films, Clemence Poesy is a superstar in the making, and just one more reason to go easy on the French.

There are lots of people who have a difficult time getting to a doctor's office. That shouldn't prevent them from receiving quality medical care. So we're taking the show on the road. We've made the commitment to provide care to nursing home patients. We travel Moorhead, Barnesville, Henning, and quite a few other towns. Do you have a loved one in a nursing home who needs footcare? Give Otter Tail Podiatry a call. Your loved one can receive the needed care without having to leave home. There is no need for family to have to arrange for transportation. How great is that!
Because of our new program, we are reducing office hours. The office will routinely be closed on Thursdays, and may be closed on Wednesdays and Fridays if we are scheduled to go out of town. But don't be confused -- we are still seeing patients in the office. We have office hours on Mondays and Tuesdays. Give us a call! We can arrange an appointment for you without a long wait.
Patients often think that surgery is a "quick fix." The surgery will be over in a short period of time. But the recovery period depends on what kind of surgery is done, and could be lengthy. Recovery time can be as short as 3-4 weeks or as much as 6 months or more. Very often a less invasive treatment can produce equally good results, and the time for improvement may actually be faster than recovery from surgery. Always ask your doctor for all the options, and don't automatically ask for what looks like a "quick fix."
Is your group looking for a speaker? Dr. Butcher would be happy to fill the bill. He can speak on a variety of foot topics such as diabetic foot care or choosing the right pair of shoes. He will tailor his talk to your group's interests. Just give us a call to set it up.
We are conveniently located at 120 East Junius Avenue in Fergus Falls, with a large parking lot across the street. We are, of course, completely accessible, and able to accommodate patients who need the use of wheelchairs, walkers, and other devices. On this site you will find information about the office, location, a map, and office hours.
You will also find a Patient Education section that covers a wide variety of topics on diagnosis and treatment of common foot ailments. You may find information relating to your individual concern that will be helpful to you.
Don't forget to "Like" us on Facebook!
Dr. Marc Butcher, DPM
Dr. Marc Butcher is originally from the small western New York town of South Dayton, located south of Buffalo. He graduated from Fredonia University, but wasn't sure of what direction his life should take. When his mother-in-law lost both her legs because of diabetes, he realized that improved foot care might help other patients...

Skip to comments.Former President George W. Bush hails push for comprehensive immigration reform
Posted on 07/07/2013 11:01:39 AM PDT by jimbo123
click here to read article
Well I would think so since he's married to a hispanic, which is also why GW supports it..it's all in the family. Still p*sses me off big time!
We so wanted Gore not to be president we elected this elitist.
We so wanted Kerry not to be president we re-elected this globalist.
We so wanted Hillary not to be president we helped obama defeat her in the primaries.
We so wanted obama not to be president we nominated mccain.
We so wanted obama not to get re-elected we nominated Romney.
Have we learned our lessonS?
I just saw a video of him and his wife saying he is retired and he is out of politics. Hmmmm
I'm shocked. So W. turned out to be another GOP establishment politician serving his corporate overlords.
"I just saw a video of him and his wife saying he is retired and he is out of politics. Hmmmm"
He's laying the groundwork for a run by Jeb
what's the matter? Couldn't pass the physical or mental exam?
Phony? The uniform in my closet says different.
Lol. Phony.
Insanity rules. This is the truth.
I feel the same way about Bush (his whole family in fact) and have for a long time now.
LOL Liberal.
You're just trying to be a big shot, all you're proving to everyone is that you have no respect for a Veteran.
And, that doesn't make you a big shot, it just makes you damn sad.
Were they in Crawford or Dallas?
We can change his mongram from GWB to GCIRB, with CIR for his favorite program "Comprehensive Immigration Reform".

"New Girl" Season 3 is over, but did the finale episode, "Cruise," give fans the ending that Jess and Nick should have had?
Despite a cruise filled with romantic activities — and despite Nick going in for a kiss at one point — the vacation turned out to be purely platonic. Jess and Nick are pretty obviously in to each other, no matter what their dating status, but they don't want to act on it.
When even towel animals can't inspire passion, there's not much hope for romance, is there?
Yes, there can and probably will be more Nick-Jess romance in the future. But the present is more about bunk beds with Schmidt and a forced separation of these two messed-up soul mates.
The question now becomes: Is this a satisfying season finale for "New Girl" and for the romance of Jess and Nick? Or are you left wanting more? Vote in the poll below!

It looks like Z tried to cook the book.
I tried to attached the link to the SEC website with the link showing Zillows response to the SEC questions but yahoo doesn't allow such links anymore. It will be interesting when Zillow reports its next quarterly results if there are any prior period accounting adjustments following the questions raised by the SEC.
Whilst it seems that most publicity has been given to the Revenue 'churn' questions, I was particularly interested in the discussion about any changes in accounting treatment in respect of Goodwill and Intangible Assets, and even more so with the Core Logic patent settlement which was structured as a $6.1m License Agreement. The phasing of that settlement with only $458k expensed in 2012 and over $1m for subsequent years, was always going to attract attention and it will be interesting if the SEC swallow Zillows flaky justification.
It is good to know that the SEC has Zillow on its radar and will no doubt be reviewing future returns in detail. As Citron Research highlighted last week Zillow has many issues that investors need to understand, and this is a big step in that process.
Go to SEC.Gov and search for Zillow and read the correspondence dated August 23rd to read the full response from the Zillow CFO
On March 2nd this year Zillow explained in its 10K Filing the settlement it reached with Core Logic over the patent lawsuit filed by Core Logic. The link to this is attached as it is an area investigated by the SEC in the news released today by the SEC into several aspects of Zillows accounting treatment. As I mentioned in the previous post, it will be interesting if the SEC investigation result in any changes to the Core Logic settlement accounting treatment and if any prior period accounting adjustments that are enforced.
Just in case the link doesn't work here is part of the text in the March 2nd post; "Looks like Zillow may have agreed a $6.1m settlement with First American Core Logic. Interesting that they don't 'connect the dots' between the previous 10-Q and the current 10-Q from which the attached details were extracted. I am more interested in the 'payment phasing' as it seems Zillow is giving themselves a P&L benefit with a $458k charge in 2012, increasing to over $1m in the next 4 years. Let's hope the Analysts ask questions about this topic to clarify exactly what the payment is for and the basis for the payment profile so that any suspicion of accounting irregularity is eliminated. It will be interesting how First American Core Logic account for this transaction as well. I am sure if there is NO connection that Zillow will clarify this matter seeing as they left the 10-Q statement so vague. "In April 2012, we entered into an agreement for a non-cancelable purchase commitment for content related to our website. The amount due for this content is as follows (in thousands): 2012 $458 2013 $1,100 2014 $1,142 2015 $1,242 2016 $1,342 All future years $816 Total future purchase commitments $6,100"

Next:AFGHANISTAN: March To The Sound Of The Guns
December 1,
2008: Although the Somali pirates are Moslems, and threaten the Moslem nations in
the region, none of those Moslem nations is willing to carry out the only
complete solution to the problem. That is, landing troops and taking control of
the coastal towns and villages the pirates use as bases.
Egypt, which
receives nearly $6 billion a year in transit fees from users of the Suez Canal,
sees that revenue threatened. If the pirates decide to move into the Red Sea,
they would do great damage to the economies of Sudan, Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
But none of these countries is eager to take on the Somali pirates. Everyone is
calling for "the world" (non-Moslem nations) to contribute ships and
soldiers to deal with the problem.

Al Pacino may play Joe Paterno in a new movie about the late Penn State football coach, reports Deadline.com's Mike Fleming. The film, says Fleming, would be based on Joe Posnanski's biography of Paterno, which detailed the last two years of the coach's life.
No writer or director is attached to the movie, but Pacino's involvement would continue the Oscar-winner's string of controversial real-life characters.
Pacino has played Dr.Jack Kevorkian (in the HBO movie You Don't Know Jack) and Roy Cohn (in the HBO adaptation of Angels in America). He's also played a football coach before, leading the Oliver Stone drama Any Given Sunday.

The upcoming action movie Wanted, starring Angelina Jolie, James McAvoy, and Morgan Freeman, opens on June 27th, and I just added links to four different trailers, including a restricted "Red Band" trailer available exclusively through iTunes.
The Red Band trailer features a fair share of violence and a good shot of the tattoos on Angelina Jolie's back, but I don't think it breaches the sensibilities of most people, especially those interested in the kind of movie being advertised.
As I was adding the links to the trailers, I also noticed that some theaters are already offering tickets for sale for the opening weekend. This means you can start making your plans and ordering tickets now, which will make seeing the movie that opening weekend much easier!
Check out the Showtimes page for Wanted and look for the clickable showtimes for your favorite theaters to purchase your tickets today!

On Tap Today: The election's upon us
Will Obama be re-elected for a second presidential term? Will Mitt Romney and his Wisconsin-based VP candidate Paul Ryan take over the White House? One thing is for certain - this election thing is a pretty big deal, particularly in a so-called battleground state like Wisconsin. So unique entertainment options appear to be a bit spare tonight as we wait to see how this election will pan out.
That said, the Riverwest Public House Cooperative at 815 E. Locust St. has found a way to celebrate the election and bring some much needed fun to the evening. It's been preparing for tonight with a series of "Hot Blind Debates" discussions this fall in addition to screening the actual presidential debates. Tonight, election coverage will be playing on two big screen TVs, with raffle prizes for guessing the popular vote in states before they're called, plus political jokes and "I Voted" drink specials. Oh, and according to the site, depending on how things go, cat videos might be shared as well. »Read Full Blog Post

Ambition, scruples ensnare the 'Filthy Rich'
With its second-person point of view and its nearly cradle-to-grave arc, reading Mohsin Hamid's "How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia" is like being deeply immersed in a text-based role-playing game - only it's the kind of game Leo Tolstoy might have written, clear-eyed in its dissection of human folly, ambition and love.
Hamid, also the author of "The Reluctant Fundamentalist," casts this novel as a self-help book, speaking directly to an unnamed boy, then man, who wants to get rich in an unnamed country, presumably Hamid's native Pakistan. In doing so he satirizes both the self-help genre and the rags-to-riches tales coming out of contemporary Asia, suggesting that such fortunes, like those of many of America's great robber barons, were built on crimes, opportunism and the occasional well-placed bribe: »Read Full Article

Tiptree Award goes to Kiernan novel, Salaam collection
Caitlin R. Kiernan's novel "The Drowning Girl: A Memoir" and Kiini Ibura Salaam's story collection "Ancient, Ancient" have been named winners of the annual James Tiptree Jr. Award, presented each Memorial Day weekend at the WisCon sci-fi convention in Madison.
Founded in 1991, the Tiptree is a literary prize awarded by a jury each year for "science fiction or fantasy that expands or explores our understanding of gender." Its title comes from the masculine pen name of the late Alice B. Sheldon, who wrote excellent science fiction under the Tiptree name. When the sci-fi world discovered that the presumed male Tiptree was a female writer, a lot of discussion followed. »Read Full Blog Post

on December 4, 2013 - 12:52 AM
, updated December 4, 2013 at 6:37 AM
ALBANY – The day after Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo's anti-corruption commission said that it's investigating an unspecified number of state lawmakers for possible ethical and criminal lapses, the collective backs of Democratic and Republican legislators stood rigid Tuesday as they considered legal and political push-backs.
Mixed into the legislators' ire is this question: How will the commission's report citing "commonplace" ethical lapses at a State Capitol that is home to a "culture of corruption" affect future relations between the governor and the Legislature?
Even those not under investigation wonder how things have gotten to this point where lawmakers are painted with a broad brush of corruption, even though Cuomo acknowledges that only a minority of legislators are targeted.
If the Moreland Commission has the goods on politicians, it should unveil the full case instead of hinting the way the panel did in its report issued Monday night, lawmakers say.
"Critics say it's a fishing expedition. … Well, let's show the fish," said Assemblyman Robin L. Schimminger, D-Kenmore, who has not been asked to supply the Moreland panel with any information, unlike dozens of his colleagues with outside jobs. Schimminger is a lawyer but is not engaged in private practice.
Moreland Commission attorneys have issued 200 subpoenas since July, officials reported Monday.
There also was some irony that the Moreland report was released 24 hours before Cuomo's Tuesday night fundraiser for his 2014 campaign, some aides in the Legislature noted. Cuomo, who is pushing for publicly financed political campaigns, already has at least $28 million in his campaign account.
Billy Joel was scheduled to play for the Cuomo crowd of deep-pocket donors, who could be labeled "rock stars" if they gave Cuomo $50,000, according to an invitation to the event.
Cuomo took to the airwaves Monday night, courtesy of a New York radio show co-hosted by former Gov. David A. Paterson, to talk about the "little bit of denial" occurring in the Legislature when it comes to adopting changes to the state's ethics and campaign finance laws.
Cuomo said lawmakers' arguments that they personally have done nothing wrong and that two years ago they passed what Cuomo himself billed as a major ethics package work on an individual but not collective basis.
"I'm arguing the collective," Cuomo said. "I'm saying I understand you did nothing wrong, but as a collective (legislative body), the public has lost confidence. The public has lost trust."
The Moreland panel repeated many ideas that have floated around Albany for years, including proposals that Cuomo promoted in the 2013 session but that lawmakers ignored.
When lawmakers return for their session during the 2014 re-election year, Cuomo said, he hopes they "realize there's an institutional responsibility" and pass the reforms that the Moreland panel has proposed.
But lawmakers, who know the ways of the Legislature better than a governor who has never been a part of it, liken Cuomo's Moreland panel to placing a political gun to their heads.
The commission, whose subpoenas seeking information about some lawmakers' outside income are being challenged in court by both Democrats and Republicans, was created in July after the governor did not get his way with lawmakers over a set of changes he wanted to the state's ethics and campaign finance laws.
While Assembly Democrats say they have approved several bills that the Moreland panel sought, they also have blocked some efforts at reforming the Byzantine ways of the state Board of Elections, which has an equal number of Republican and Democratic board members – ensuring deadlocks on many investigations.
In the Senate, Republicans have been steadfast at blocking a taxpayer-financed campaign system that Cuomo wants; GOP lawmakers say their constituents have little interest in seeing taxpayer money go to support candidates who do not share their philosophical or political views.
But another Buffalo-area lawmaker raised concerns about the way the Moreland probe has been conducted.
"In a general sense, I don't think name-calling and grandstanding serve any purpose at all," said State Sen. Patrick M. Gallivan, R-Elma.
Gallivan disagreed with using a panel of district attorneys and others to press lawmakers to lean Cuomo's way.
"The place for all this is in the halls of the Capitol in discussions between the Legislature and governor, and it should be done in full public view," Gallivan said.
Gallivan, a former Erie County sheriff, expressed concerns on a number of fronts that the Moreland panel released "sensationalized" details about ongoing probes of several unnamed legislators.
"They say they are not releasing names because they don't want to compromise the integrity and confidentiality of investigations. In my view, they've done just that," Gallivan said. "They got very specific without naming names, … and the persons engaging in the conduct, if it is illegitimate, can now take steps to prevent anyone from uncovering anything additional."
At the same time, Gallivan believes that all lawmakers could face some level of apprehension because of the way the Moreland Commission released information about the unnamed lawmakers.
Gallivan said Cuomo's Moreland approach has "probably created some hard feelings" in the Legislature.
"I do think that with words used like 'culture of corruption in Albany' or that the Legislature needs to 'clean house,' it does a disservice by painting everybody with a broad stroke," Gallivan said.
Like Schimminger, Gallivan has not been asked to supply any financial information to Moreland investigators.
Unknown now is how it will all play out by June, before the legislative session ends and the governor and lawmakers hit the campaign trail in their 2014 re-election bids. Their common goal – political survival – next November at the hands of voters will overcome any of the ill will existing now, some observers say.
"One would think the Legislature would not want to get into a fight in an election year. That kind of overt conflict isn't good for anybody, and I would think they would do everything to avoid that," said Douglas Muzzio, a political scientist at Baruch College.
But Muzzio said that many factors will come into play for true détente to emerge, including the usual horse-trading over fiscal and policy issues that Republicans and Democrats will want in the months ahead.
If relations aren't improved, the risks are great for both Cuomo and lawmakers. "That sort of fight would define dysfunction at fairly profound levels. We're talking institutional prerogatives here, and that's the whole game," Muzzio said.
When Cuomo and lawmakers resolve their current feud, the common theory is that the Moreland Commission will go dark and Cuomo can lay down a sword that lawmakers privately believe he got carried away with when he created the investigative panel.
With the release of its preliminary findings Monday, a new question has emerged: How can the Moreland Commission's work end without resolving evidence that it may have uncovered about illegal "pay-to-play" deals, conflicts of interest and lawmakers possibly double-dipping into campaign accounts and the state bank to pay for travel and other expenses?
Officially, legislative leaders were trying to make nice with Cuomo and not take what is already a bitter fight behind the scenes any more visible to the public
Michael Whyland, a spokesman for Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver, D-Manhattan, said the Assembly has backed reform efforts in the past.
Scott Reif, a spokesman for Senate co-leader Dean G. Skelos, a Nassau County Republican, said the Moreland ideas will be subject to talks in the 2014 session.
He noted that seven Republicans and Democrats, including Erie County District Attorney Frank A. Sedita III, on the 25-member Moreland panel dissented with the majority's view that New York needs a taxpayer-financed campaign system.
The dissenters argued that public financing would divert millions of dollars away from schools and other state programs.
Tuesday, the governor appeared to be providing some wiggle room on demands from private watchdog groups that he hold firm on a taxpayer-financed campaigns.
After an event in Manhattan, Cuomo called public financing a "political issue" and said that while there was dissent on the Moreland panel over such a system, there was no argument among panel members over the need to toughen bribery laws and add more disclosure about outside income of public officials and political donors.
"I believe there is consensus around those points, and those are the issues we should move forward on," Cuomo said, leaving out public financing of campaigns as one of those must-do items.

The Place in Nob Hill
Redevelopment in Nob Hill takes off, and ticks off some area residents
By Christie Chisholm
Nob Hill is waiting for something spectacular. Already one of Albuquerque's favorite shopping destination points (and many people's favorite living destination points), the corridor seems destined for bigger things. Like playing host to a light rail system that the city aims to plop down in coming years, or moving forward with more infill development, higher walkability and, therefore, more pedestrian traffic. In fact, running neck-and-neck only against East Downtown (EDo), Nob Hill has a chance to be the premiere location for new urbanism in the state. And it may all begin with The Place.
Council Watch
A Culture of Fear
By Laura Sanchez
A special Council meeting on Dec. 12 provided a public forum on the city's All Hazards Emergency Operations Plan. The plan addresses wars, floods, earthquakes, fires, hazardous materials, infrastructure damage, civil disturbances, epidemics, energy shortages, major plane crashes, terrorism, severe snowstorms, water shortages, bus and train accidents, tornadoes and landslides. But all the public wanted to talk about was radioactive threats. Councilors Debbie O'Malley and Brad Winter were excused.

Cutting and Running

I swear, sometimes the Republicans are just too clever for their own good. Karl Rove, the brain behind the Bush White House, has built an enviable record as a successful strategist largely on his talent for capturing in just a few words the conventional wisdom about a person or situation.
Odds & Ends
By Devin D. O'Leary
Dateline: Germany—If you're looking for the holiday spirit, Germany may not be the place to find it. A department store Santa on his way home from work was beaten by stressed-out shoppers in Wiesbaden. Stefan Stettler, 31, was still in character and chatting with other passengers while waiting for his train home. Police say two men, apparently stressed after a full day's Christmas shopping, went ballistic when asked to "tell Santa what they want for Christmas." The men took Stettler's sack of presents and beat him over the head with it. Stettler broke several fingers trying to protect himself. "Around this time of year, shoppers seem to get this glint in their eyes and you can just see they are going to go off any minute," Stettler said. "I should have known better. But, come on, who beats up Santa Claus?" Police are still searching for the unknown assailants.
As you may know, Mark Guest, one of the leads in the Vortex Theatre's most recent production of Moliere's Tartuffe, was taken ill at the beginning of the run and died this past final weekend. I cannot imagine what went through the cast's mind or that of director John Hardman, whose task was to take over Mark's role, no mean feat under the circumstances.

Carter Wall
Executive Director, Renewable Energy Division, Massachusetts Clean Energy Center
After less than a month in operation, the Falmouth Wind turbine is cranking out the green kilowatt hours like nobody's business. See how much it's producing.
This turbine was truly a community effort. The town voted overwhelmingly to support the project, and even school kids got involved. The Falmouth Energy Committee sponsored a "Name the Wind Turbine" contest. Thirteen-year-old Kiernan Galbraith, pictured here, was the winner, dubbing the turbine "Aeolus," after the Greek ruler of the winds. See pictures of the turbine.
Funding for the turbine came from a variety of sources. My shop, the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center, was a proud contributor – part of our effort to help communities participate in meeting Governor Patrick's goal of 2000 megawatts (MW) of wind power in the Commonwealth by 2020. There are currently 19 of these community-scale turbines (turbines 100 kW or greater) operating in the state, with over 15 MW of capacity.
This 1.65 MW Vestas wind turbine, located at the town's wastewater treatment plant, is expected to produce about 30 percent of the electricity consumed annually by the town's municipal buildings, saving the town over $200,000 a year on energy costs and making Falmouth one of the leading "clean energy" towns in the Commonwealth. The town recently voted to support another turbine nearby. EEA Secretary Bowles recently visited the Falmouth turbine to congratulate town officials and the Cape at large for their clean energy leadership.

Joined the yahoo league also, this is gunna be fun :P
I Used To Be a King
Nice, 2 more teams would put us over the top.
BTW, Nick any idea what the bet was between those 3?? I feel bad for Pelf, haha.
In the mean time, here are some updates of Mets camp & what's been going on...
Ben Shpigel of the NY Times on Tim Redding & Jon Niese
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. Jon Niese and a man with a goatee and shaved head walked into the Mets complex together.
Jay Horwitz, the teams public relations honcho, greeted Niese and looked at the bald man quizzically.
Tim Redding, the bald man said, extending his hand.
Redding and Niese, who are vying for the fifth starters job, are represented by the same agent, Tom OConnell. The two also revealed that they drove 20 hours together to get here and are sharing a house this spring. Nothing like a little friendly competition.
David Lennon of Newsday on J.J. Putz.
Got a good close-up look at J.J. Putz this morning during his bullpen session. Mixed in with a barrage of fastballs, however, was a pitch I couldn't identify at first because it had such a ridiculous spin and break to it.
After Brian Schneider shook his head in disbelief, I asked bullpen catcher Dave Racaniello - squatting next to Schneider - what the pitch was.
"Splitter," Rac said.
"Really?" I replied.
Smiling, Rac said, "It's a good one."
Consider Putz a serious upgrade, folks.
Steve Popper of North Jersey Sports Blogs on the whereabouts of Luis Castillo.
So what becomes a little noticeable is who isn't here.
Luis Castillo? Hello?
It's early, very early - the position players aren't contractually obliged to be here until Feb. 20. But still, if you were Luis Castillo wouldn't you want to be the first player here - a task that fell to David Wright, Daniel Murphy and Nick Evans, all of whom arrived here February 1.
But Castillo, who has more at stake than any other Mets player in coming back, in getting a do-over, has not appeared yet. That might tell you something about what the Mets are going to get from him - and it might tell you what the Mets could get from Brian Schneider.
Thanks to PH3AR on the Sheva sig!!!
EDIT: they just put the story on metsblog
Yesterday, as seen in this photo, Mike Pelfrey wore a black, chin-strap, military, motorcycle helmet while working out in camp.
According to Bart Hubbuch in the New York Post, "Pelfrey dubbed it his 'crash helmet,' a joke stemming from the day before, when he somehow managed to flip over his cart during an afternoon round of golf with fellow starter John Maine, C Brian Schneider and OF Ryan Church.'

Welcome to the Pennsylvania Neurological Society website.
Dear Members:
Our society has come a long way in furthering the mission set at its inception. This includes improving the clinical practice of adult and child neurology and serving as an advocate on behalf of patients and physicians regarding neurological disorders and the practice of neurology. With a changing practice landscape we need to adopt and adjust our clinical practice without compromising the quality of our clinical practice. To build on the past and continue with our mission, we have planned the Xth Annual Meeting of Pennsylvania Neurological Society on October 24-25, at The Hotel Hershey, 100 Hotel Road, Hershey, PA.
Our agenda includes a wide variety of topics including epilepsy, vascular neurology, neuromuscular diseases, multiple sclerosis, headache, practice management and payment reform, quality improvement, and advocacy issues.
To encourage the involvement of residents, fellows and medical students we encourage them to submit their scholarly work at the meeting.
In addition we plan to award a research grant to a successful application, which would further the mission of PNS.
To improve our advocacy efforts, we would like you to recruit your colleagues to join the PNS for $50 a year. The membership fee can be used as a credit for the registration fee at the annual meeting. Clearly our success of the advocacy efforts is dependent on active membership in our organization.
Parthasarathy Thirumala, MD

Purpose: All Christians are called to gather at the altar and to break and share the bread of Communion and thus BE the Body of Christ. For those unable to gather with us, the sharing of the Eucharist becomes the sign of their oneness with the Body of Christ. We at St Ladislas have the responsibility to share the Eucharist with those unable to be with us - the shut ins and the ill, the residents in the nursing homes and assisted living.
Commitment: All Eucharistic ministers visiting the nursing home and assited living facilities do so once each month. It requires approximately two hours on a Sunday morning. If your schedule allows, there is a need for weekday help as well. Assisted Living Communions are done on weekdays.
Training: The Cleveland Diocese requires all Eucharistic Ministers to:
1) receive training (We have materials here at the parish)
2) be approved by the pastor.

Welcome to the District of Columbia Directory of New Hires!
Federal and State law requires employers to report newly hired and re-hired employees in District of Columbia to the District of Columbia New Hire Reporting Center. Please use this site to provide you with information about reporting new hires including reporting online and other reporting options!
Spring has sprung! Springtime is the hiring season for many industries including landscaping and lawn care, tree services, florists, construction, pest control, spring break service providers such as hotels and airlines, and many others. The District of Columbia Directory of New Hires reminds all employers to report their employees who are hired or rehired over the next few months. All newly hired and/or rehired employees must be reported within 20 days of their hire date, whether they are full-time, part-time, or temporary employees. Employers who submit reports electronically are required to submit their reports in two monthly transmissions not more than 12-16 days apart.
Did you know that 74% of all child support is collected through income withholding from employees' paychecks?
Employers play a valuable role in establishing income withholding orders and ensuring child support payments are collected through compliance with New Hire reporting laws. The District of Columbia Directory of New Hires would like to thank you for your continued partnership and participation, because without you, our program could not succeed.
Please continue to submit accurate New Hire information in a timely manner, and help us improve the lives of even more children and families throughout the nation!
We welcome any feedback regarding the current program and encourage suggestions regarding ways we can improve our service to you.
ATTENTION! In accordance with Section 802 of The Claims Resolution Act of 2010 (CRA), the DC Council passed legislation on March 22, 2012, which requires employers to provide the date an employee first performed services for pay to the state New Hire Directory. Effective August 1, 2013 the date of hire will be a mandatory data element. Employers can input this information by using the existing "Employee's Date of Hire" field.
Definition of a Newly Hired Employee:
Effective April 21, 2012, The Trade Adjustment Assistance Extension Act of 2011, signed October 21, 2011 by President Obama, amends section 453A(a)(2) of the Social Security Act. This amendment defines a newly hired employee as an employee who (i) has not previously been employed by the employer; or (ii) was previously employed by the employer but has been separated from such prior employment for at least 60 consecutive days. As a reminder, employers are still required to report employees hired on a temporary basis.
- New employers can register at New User Registration. You must have your FEIN and a valid email address.
- If you have an existing account, you can start right away at User Login.
- If you forgot your password, the system can send it to you at the email address on file. See Password Help.

At the midway point of the 2011-12 NHL season, the Vancouver Canucks are currently in familiar territory as they sit in first place in the Western Conference.
Last week, fellow Canucks featured columnist John Bain wrote an article discussing the reasons why the Canucks would finish first in the West.
While I agree with Mr. Bain's reasons for predicting Western Conference supremacy for the Canucks yet again, I'm going to take it one step further.
Not only will the Canucks win the Western Conference, but they'll also capture their second straight Presidents' Trophy, and you don't need to look any further than their schedule to find out why.
Currently, the Canucks are trailing the New York Rangers by a point in the overall standings, and their Stanley Cup Finals rivals from Boston are tied in points with them and have four games in hand. However, the Canucks have several scheduling advantages over these two teams and every other team that I consider to be a contender as well.
Let's find out what these advantages are as I breakdown the schedule of every team that can contend for the Presidents' Trophy.

Inching closer to his goal of meeting Manny Pacquiao in a welterwight title bout, Mike Jones' next fight will come as part of a major undercard.
The undefeated Mt. Airy native's next bout will come on the undercard of either Pacquiao-Juan Manuel Marquez on Nov. 12 at Las Vegas' MGM Grand or Miguel Cotto-Antonio Margarito on Dec. 3 at either Madison Square Garden or Las Vegas, according to his camp.
A September fight in Atlantic City is ninety percent ruled out.
