All three islands are in the Southern Marianas, about Ailes south of Tokyo. i Saipan and Tinian are the only two nearbj islands from which the Japanese could send aim to Guam.

Most of the legislators comment- ing, however, suggested thai such an extensive shake-up might well be postponed until the war is won whereas military men favoring (he idea were said to feel that the time to make the move is now while the war is still on.

In the last few days the Germans ordered men lip to and Including 60 to report for examination to de- termine their fitness for military service. The figures Indicating the sudden rise in Ihe average age of Germans killed were reach- ed through a careful check of many thousands of death no- tices appearing in three selected German newspapers. Average age figures for the last six months showed the following curve: August. 25 1-2: September. 26: October, 26 1-2: November, 27 1-2: and January 28. The most startling drop was among youths of 19 and under, who In August supplied 13 per cent of the total deaths. By January they provided only 9 per cent, indicat- ing lhat most of that group ted nccn killed. The to'.al number of casualties- killed, badly wounded or captured (lie beginning of the war Is conservatively estimated at a mini- mum of 4.500.000 to 5.000.000 of whom about 2.000.000 arc dead. The Nazis are estimated to have a total of 335 divisions in active sen-ice, with 65 in the grand re- serve which they plan U> use against the invasion from the west. Soldiers Believe Real Inequality In War Activity NEW YORK, Feb. 26 American soldiers in Ihe stalemated Italian campaign feel there's a real inequality of sacrifice in this war, Hal Boye, Associated Press war columnist, said today on his re- turn from 16 months with troops in the Mediterranean. "The battle morale of these doughboys is he said. ''But they are" fighting for a land which some feel has forgotten them.

The statement made two things clear: 1. That Nazi Field Marshal Kcs- sclring hoped lo gain "for Germany a spectacular military victory which she needs so and 2. That, having failed, he now Is massing more power lo try again.

Skip to comments.Goodyear's Union City, Tenn., plant to close, eliminating 1,900 jobs
Posted on 02/13/2011 1:00:55 PM PST by DeaconBenjamin
Goodyear's plant manager placed its bad-news call to City Hall at 7:58 a.m. Thursday: The Union City plant where 1,900 employees make radial tires will close by year's end.
"We were just all surprised, I guess," City Clerk Carolyn Moran said, adding most everyone in this border town of 10,200 knows someone who works at the plant four miles north of City Hall.
Union City sits at the Kentucky line, 115 miles northeast of Memphis. The area unemployment rate is 9.9 percent.
Goodyear's fourth-quarter earnings report, released Thursday, disclosed the Akron, Ohio-based company will take a one-time $160 million charge related to the plant closing.
Goodyear Chairman and CEO Richard Kramer said in the release: "While we are committed to manufacturing in North America, all of our plants must be cost-competitive and be able to demonstrate sustainable, world-class productivity."
"That is not the case with this plant, and as a result, the market has moved beyond what the factory is able to build."
The news confirmed the fears of many in the region.
"I guess it's a surprise that it happened as soon as it happened, but we all had known because of its unprotected status that something like this could happen," Mayor Terry Hailey said.
He referred to the last contract agreement between Goodyear and the United Steelworkers, which didn't protect the plant from shutting down.
"Obviously, it's a severe blow to the community," said Hailey, a local radio station manager who's been part-time mayor the past 22 years.
The effects of the closing will radiate beyond Union City and Obion County; workers commuted from the entire region, Hailey said.
In Nashville, state Rep. Bill Sanderson of nearby Kenton rose on the House floor to express his disappointment, pointing out that the closing imperiled not only jobs at the factory, but also at businesses that depended on Goodyear's operations. "Hundreds of millions of dollars" would be lost in the region because of the closing, the Republican said.
Gov. Bill Haslam said the Goodyear closure is a "huge hit" for an area already plagued by high unemployment.
"I don't know yet what we can do but I can promise you we're going to focus a lot of attention there," Haslam said after a luncheon speech Thursday.
"We obviously haven't had time to put a strategy in place there but we understand how serious that is for the area and we will work hard at trying to alleviate that," the governor said.
A United Steelworkers Local 878L official declined to comment until all its members had been informed of Goodyear's announcement.
But the local posted a message on its website Thursday:
"This morning Plant Management called the Union Negotiating Committee to the plant and announced intentions for plant shutdown. "They will be announcing this to the members today. Plans are to run at the current production levels until towards the end of the year. There are no plans for a ramp down in production levels."
The plant opened in 1968, Hailey said.
Union City still has other substantial employers, including a Kohler plumbing fixtures plant, Tyson Foods, a Lennox Hearth Products plant, and Williams Sausages.
"Hopefully, we can attract somebody else as soon as we can," Hailey said. "We certainly will have an available workforce.
Thanks to Obama more jobs lost. My bet these tires will soon be made in China.
I'm guessing that Goodyear has the same problems I saw at GM.
The added costs and lower productivity of a unionized workforce is a very tough factor to overcome when facing a wide assortment of competitors without that problem.
Now they can name it Non-Union City
But, is it the change you thought you voted for??
1900 families devastated. it's not easy to get a new job these days.
"Hang in there!"
More shovel-ready jobs for Obama. Shovel-ready...as in "dead and ready for burial". The WH can rejoice because that's more Americans who need unemployment benefits driving us closer to the tipping point where communism becomes mandatory to feed and house the people who will never find productive work again.
There was a day when one of the union provided benefits was their own unemployment system to keep families like this going until they could get another job: one of those things that unions did when they were meaningful and not a political arm for the Dims.
It is sad news for Union City, Hickman,Ky Fulton,Ky Martin, Tn and the entire region. 1,900 jobs lost will decimate the area. About 10 percent of the population works there. However, it can't be blamed on Obama. The plant is old and outdated. It is pure economics. Already a very poor region, except for agriculture, this will be an enormous shock to many more people than the 1,900 who will be losing their jobs.
Goodyear has been doing this for years...slowly moving plants abroad (its not like the raw materials come from here anyway). We have a local plant...around a year ago, Goodyear hired a man from Mexico to work at the plant/observe the operation...uper management. Seems like our plant's days are numbered.
The Baraqqi regime has added 17 million to the food stamp rolls in 2 years.
I've not investigated the stats, but this has to be an unprecedented number.
Congress and the WH needs to start providing incentives to add jobs in America. There's no way we can compete with $2 an hour but...
"He referred to the last contract agreement between Goodyear and the United Steelworkers, which didn't protect the plant from shutting down. "
Another SUCCESS STORY for organized labor. They taught THE MAN a lesson here.
In 2009, President Barack Obama signed off on higher tire tariffs. http://www.google.com/search?q=Obama+tire+tariffs&hl=en&tbo=1&num=10&lr=&ft=i&cr=&safe=off&tbs=
And those 1,900 lost jobs will trigger plenty of additional lost jobs in that area.
Is there a pay & benefit schedule at which Goodyear would have stayed? What kind of money are these workers earning? We know how much they'll be earning after the plant closes.
What Congress and the White House SHOULD do is to stop creating DISINCENTIVES to the creation of jobs in the United States. Every stupid government program, every new regulation of everything, every legal challenge to anything, every "employee rights" statement, not only gives prospective employers a reason to "Not be an employer", it virtually tells them that is is stupid to grow your business here.
Government at any level does NOT create jobs in the private sector. Government can ONLY create the climate that will encourage the growth of employment. They are doing just the opposite.
"The added costs and lower productivity of a unionized workforce is a very tough factor to overcome when facing a wide assortment of competitors without that problem."
That's it in a nutshell.
[Hint: Don't count on it; you're all dead meat on the table.]
I have never been any fan of Obama...nor of his Marxist agenda. There are good people in the Union City area of Tennessee.....and some who are greedy and some who are ignorant. Hopefully, the greedy and the ignorant will learn something from this. Unfortunately, the good people will have to deal with it as well.
Tire prices for my truck have increased more than $50 over the past year. This is in a down economy?
I should have included that I hope many will learn that UNIONS as we know them are past their time. They are fonts of corruption and greed.
Yes, this is the Unions fault. Ya Know, you guys are a joke. These jobs are going overseas because these corporations care more about making a buck, than they do about being American products. How the hell, do you expect an American worker to compete against a Mexican, Chinese or Malaysian worker who makes 50 dollars a freakin month, and lives in company housing. Im getting tired of the union bashing around here. Everytime a unionized company leaves an area, the Union is to blame. How about the millions of non union jobs who outsource to third world countries every year? These companies are looking for the cheapest labor they can find, and why pay a worker in the USA 12 bucks an hour when you can pay some slave over in China or down in South America 10 bucks a day.
All I can tell you is that having worked in unionized plants for 40+ years, I really believe the union is a large factor in increasing costs and reducing productivity.
The sad part was was that most of the workers were brainwashed and truly believed they worked for the UAW, not the company. They saw no connection between the economic success of the company and their own compensation.
I was in a closed-shop union job for 11 years. I've seen the games that are played. I've seen the grievances over NOTHING. I've seen lazy bums get protected by the union while those of us with even a small amount of work ethic are told by the union to slow down and quit working so hard. I've seen a portion of my pay STOLEN by the union thugs to support causes in which I did not believe. I've been down that road - the unions are a huge problem in this country.
It is the union's fault in a large part. It is the government's fault in part. It is NOT the corporation's fault - they're just trying to stay in business while the antagonists (union and government primarily) do everything that they can to stop them.
Not very well factually educated in American labor rates, are you? Since the Revolution, American labor was the comparitivly highest paid in the world. That is why unskilled and skilled labor flooded here. And, yet while having high labor, high local costs of building new plant, equipment, cities, transportation, we became a export super power.
Why? Business. Money. Anyone could do business, invest, make money, quicker, faster then anyplace in the world. This quick return of money, profits more than covered high labor rates. This ease and speed is now in China.
So, be ignorant, blame investors who add up socialist costs, socialist taxes, rules regulations permits fees and decide to take their money elsewhere. Money goes to where it is loved and wanted.
When was that? Medieval times? Weren't they called guilds back then? Oh wait. Guilds were for people with skills. Never mind.
When everyone here in America is out of work and the middleclass is reduced to the poverty level, who's gonna buy thier corporate crap? They are who they are and who they became because of us, when there is no us there is no them! Cut your nose off inspite of your face
"They saw no connection between the economic success of the company and their own compensation."
That is a great summary of what American unions have become. It could not be stated more clearly.
"These companies are looking for the cheapest labor they can find, and why pay a worker in the USA 12 bucks an hour when you can pay some slave over in China or down in South America 10 bucks a day."
There is only one way to overcome this disparity between US and third-world wages - productivity. Unions are deliberately set up to impede the flexibility and adaptability required to increase productivity. They will not change their model, and we all will suffer the consequences.
If you impede one man's freedom to hire and another man's freedom to work wherever he can, every American is hurt.
Nobody wishes to hold those denying America our universal, God-given freedom accountable - yet.
"They saw no connection between the economic success of the company and their own compensation."
Which is also why unions flourish in government. There is no connection between hard work, compensation, and economic success.
That's what corporations are for, to make money for the investors. Corporate boards are answerable to the shareholders. It is their company. Corporations are not social engineering experiments. They exist solely for the purpose of making money, and always have..
Looks like our Free Trade Communist friends have won another for Communist China.
If we get any more of nobama's "recovery summer" there could be problems. Hate yourself...vote DIMocRAT!
"Hopefully, we can attract somebody else as soon as we can," Hailey said. "We certainly will have an available workforce.
Maybe Zero can fill it with a subsidized solar or windmill plant.
You buy tire Walmart, stupid yankee...While waiting for tire, you get some China yum yum....you belly fat, you go now yankee.
My cousin worked there, but is long since retired. Just in time, I guess.
You seem to be a business illiterate, likely a liberal or perhaps closet progressive. Busiesses are founded to make money and do not exist to provide jobs.
Unions have degenerated into corrupt political entities that collect dues to promote a political agenda. They are a shield for those lacking the courage to take risks.
Harping on American products is sort of a joke. American love foreign made goods and by an overwhelming margin prefer them to expensive American manufactured products.
Congress and all presidents following after Reagan have been on the send USA jobs overseas bandwagon. That includes Clinton, Obama, and Da Bush's as well. None of them not a one was looking out for our nation the past 20 years but rather securing the gains for their political friends and donors. Corporations have had their owned people in DC but we've been shorted.
That said unions need to become realistic and workers be content with an honest wage not an unrealistic one companies can no longer meet. Union Members do you need more money? Do like us peasants have done for decades. Either work offered overtime or get a second job.
Corporate lies and free trade bull sh*t, which really mean:
We want people to work like Communist Chinese peasants, who will work hard for 14 cents per day....
I'm glad we are in a recovery. These people will easily find green jobs. Obama told me so.
RIGHT TO WORK must be the law nationwide! It's the first necessary step toward ending the death grip of unions on business and innovation. Unions are job killers.
Of course my stance on right to work may offend those (even a vocal minority here on FR) enraptured by the sainted
Martin Marxist Luther King:
In our glorious fight for civil rights, we must guard against being fooled by false slogans, such as 'right-to-work.' It provides no 'rights' and no 'works.' Its purpose is to destroy labor unions and the freedom of collective bargaining. We demand this fraud be stopped." — Martin Luther King
Martin Luther King and Jimmy Hoffa -- not a dimes worth of difference -- both were total frauds and shills for union thugocracy.

Vintage Castle Film "Lawless Frontier", c. 1939
A vintage Castle Film titled "Lawless Frontier" is available for your consideration. This 3 -5 minute edit was taken from the original film titled "Oklahoma Frontier" (1939) and made for the home market. This shortened version gave the at-home audience an opportunity to view a bit of the original movie, somewhat like our trailers of today. The movie featured Johnny Mack Brown, who was a popular western star in the 30s, 40s, and 50s.
This rare cardboard film reel is in excellent condition. The reel is approximately 3.75 inches in diameter. The film has some damage at the beginning, which I photographed. It also has been repaired about 2 feet into the movie. Since I did not unwind the entire film, there may or may not be additional repairs. The colorful box is in poor condition missing its top and bottom flap.
A super cute addition to a serious film collector's collection or a bit of nostalgia for the western lover in you!

MHS wins conference golf title; regionals Monday
|The Middlesex High golf team gathers around its Conference 42 championship trophy. From left they are volunteer assistant coach Jock Pitts, Mason Duke, Greg Pitts, Matthew Wilson, Elliott Redmon, Avary Payne, Will Leggett, Hunter Ward and head coach Greg Harrow. Not pictured is Hunter Purcell.
The Middlesex High golf team was able to "put the weather behind them" and win the Conference 42 championship on September 21 in the rain on a very wet Piankatank River Golf Club (PRGC) course in Hartfield.
Middlesex soundly defeated conference rivals Mathews, Cumberland and Central Lunenburg, and will now head to the 1A East Region tournament to be hosted by Altavista High School at the London Downs Golf Club in Forrest on Monday, October 3. The course is near Lynchburg.
The Chargers shot one of their best rounds of the season in the conference tourney, carding an 18-hole score of 351. Central Lunenburg finished second with a score of 374, Cumberland had 432 for third, and Mathews shot 450.
Central Lunenburg will join Middlesex in the regional tournament.
The Conference 42 championship match had been scheduled for Monday, September 19, but was postponed to September 21 because the forecast was calling for clearing weather, explained Charger head coach Greg Harrow. "Unfortunately that was not the case. I sent out a text Tuesday evening and early Wednesday morning confirming with the teams that we were playing regardless of the weather and that they needed to get their heads on straight."
And they did!
The Chargers had not broken 176 in 9 holes all year, said Harrow. In the dismal conditions, the team shot 173 on the front nine and 178 on the back nine. "To do that in those conditions was outstanding!" said Harrow.
Chargers Greg Pitts and Mason Duke shot the low rounds for MHS, tying with 82 apiece. "These two guys played consistent and smart golf all day," said Harrow. "It was fun to watch."
MHS teammates Elliott Redmon and Will Leggett rounded out the Chargers final total, finishing with a 93 and 94, respectively. "Both of these guys know where they made mistakes and it's up to them to minimize them during regionals," said Harrow. "While I am very proud of how they composed themselves today in these conditions, they can score much lower than they did."
Matthew Wilson and Avary Payne also competed for the Chargers, carding scores of 104 and 114, respectively. "These guys are coming along at a good pace," said Harrow. "While their scores today didn't necessarily represent their potential, they keep grinding every day and have made tremendous improvements over the course of the season."
The Chargers will leave for the regional tournament on Sunday morning and travel to the course for a practice round, spend the night, and then play in the tournament on Monday, October 3.
During the nine-hole match, Greg Pitts scored a 40 for MHS, Mason Duke had a 44, Elliott Redmon a 46, and Will Leggett and Mathew Wilson 48 apiece.
King William's top two scores were 37 and 42, but the Cavs didn't have the depth to win the match.
Avary Payne also competed for the Chargers with a score of 53.
"It was a good feeling to pull out the win after being defeated by them (Cavaliers) on their home course the week before," said Harrow. "It was also a very positive boost heading into the conference tournament the following week."

Best Skincare for Women Over 50: 4 facial skin cleansers gentle enough for your skin now
October 10, 2011 at 7:00 am in Fashion & Beauty by Lois Joy Johnson
Cleansing your face and removing makeup is an essential step in your skin care routine, but if you're a woman over 50, you want a product that will be as gentle as possible to your skin.
- Philosophy's When Hope Is Not Enough Omega 3-6-9 Hydrating Cleansing Balm (about $25 click to buy)
This extra-moisturizing cleanser replenishes skin with omegas 3, 6, and 9 essential fatty acids while cleansing in the morning or removing all your makeup at night. Incredible for dry skin—it won't strip but works on restoring your skin's natural lipid barrier instead.
- Noxzema Clean Moisture Makeup Removal Cloths (about $7.69 for 25 cloths click to buy)
Don't get nostalgic about using the updated Noxzema Original Deep Cleansing Cream unless your skin is oily. Opt instead for these alcohol-free, pre-saturated wipes with soothing vitamin E that are safe for the eye area. They even remove the most stubborn waterproof mascara easily along with all your face makeup and leave no residue just a soft, fresh face.
- Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser (about $4.10 click to buy)
I have yet to meet a dermatologist who didn't suggest this pH-balanced, low-lather face wash. Whenever I am faced with irritation, redness, or dermatitis (a definite con side effect of being a beauty editor and trying hundreds of products a week), this comes out of the cupboard.It's great for vulnerable, dry, sun-damaged irritated skin, especially in the morning. You'll have to add a warm, wet, clean washcloth to gently remove makeup though in the evening.
- Aveeno Positively Radiant Make-Up Removing Cleanser (about $5.97 click to buy)
Of course, it's Aveeno who makes this soap-free, soy-infused wash that won't dry out your skin or promote irritation. The brand is known for its use of skin-calming botanicals. This cleanser removes all makeup gently but thoroughly, even water-resistant cover-up and long-wear foundations
What's your favorite skin cleanser?

LUBBOCK - Dave Haukos pushed through the dead salt marsh aster, waist-high plants common along the Texas coast that looked out of place in north central Lubbock.
Around Amarillo
Continued residential and commercial growth in southwest Amarillo is beginning to encroach on playas in the area, including these five:
Between Soncy Road and Coulter Street, south of the Greenways addition
South of Hollywood Road near South Western Street, above
West of the Hillside Terrace Estates addition
South and west of Randall High School, south of Hollywood Road
West of Soncy Road and the Remington Apartments, north of Southwest 45th Avenue.
- Globe-News Staff
Cold, dry wind blowing through the field chapped lips and cracked soil desperate for planting season moisture. Haukos slammed a shovel into the ground at a small clearing and produced a surprise - damp, sticky earth.
Haukos, a Texas Tech professor and regional migratory-bird specialist for U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, ticked through the once-common features of the wetland surrounding him. Dark soil marked the depression in the short prairie grass that could quickly fill with water and wildlife after a hard rain.
The water would vanish just as easily, withering away under the wind and sun or slipping to the aquifer in a give-and-take that indicates a true, healthy playa.
The Panhandle boasts the highest concentration of the unique wetlands in the world. At least 25,000 playas soak up water in modern farm, range and cropland in the Llano Estacado.
Less than half work today as nature intended, Haukos said.
So the migratory bird specialist hopes to bring to Texas a program in place for years around farmland covering the rest of the country. The program uses federal dollars to purchase healthy playa acreage from farmers and create a series of refuges open to birders, hunters and hikers.
"People around here would have the opportunity to access and enjoy or experience playas in ways that they're probably not familiar with," Haukos said. "Very few people (who) live here actually know what a playa is."
Ponds the city topped with concrete, bunker drainage systems and ringed with park space, earn the much less exotic title of "stormwater retention pond(s)" in their current form.
Real playas don't hold water year-round. Ducks and other waterfowl blanket the southern High Plains when the playas fill for the winter wet season, and a chorus of toads always seems to materialize along the playas' edges after any rain, Haukos said.
But the water quickly evaporates in the dry season. Waterfowl give way to pheasants, jackrabbits and raccoons.
When the playas dry up, so do many of their state and federal protections. Playas lost protection under federal Clean Water Act laws in 2001, and U.S. Farm Bill language prohibiting farmers from interfering with a playa lake allow plowing and harvesting through the dry basins, though crops tend to fare poorly in the clays.
Even with the Farm Bill protections, playas struggle when surrounded by farmland. Soil erodes into the depressions during heavy rains and can disrupt the clays lining the basins.
Unless winds clean the invading soil out of the playa, the wetland begins to die.
Hunting and environmental groups have pushed new legislation to offer stronger protections for playas. But Haukos and other wetland researchers will try to convince federal officials next fall to include the Llano Estacado in a program that purchases playas, rather than a series of penalties.
Through Wetland Management Districts, the Department of the Interior or the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service purchases playas and small buffer tracts around the basins as wildlife refuges with public access. The program creates small, primitive parks managed by the government that contribute payments in lieu of taxes to each county.
Landowners can sell off acreage that struggles to produce crops, and the playa ecosystem enjoys new protections, said Loren Smith, a playa researcher and former Tech professor who now heads the Oklahoma State University Zoology department.
"It really helps diversify your economy if you can pay landowners to protect your wetland," Smith said. "These northern economies in the northern plains derive a lot of money from these government incentives, whereas in the southern plains, we don't see that as much."
Haukos believes 30 to 50 landowners with playas that could be protected would sign up under the first attempts at such a program, though he couldn't guess at how much money would be available for such a project.
He hopes to have the Llano Estacado region included in such funding next year.
Landowners should have the same options for their property as farmers and ranchers in the northern plains, he said. And those who don't live around the playas could have better access to a unique feature of their landscape.
"It's a way to conserve wetlands but also improve the area for the people who live here," Haukos said.

Its scientific name is Amorphophallus Titanum, but its most commonly known as a corpse flower. And it could bloom any day now in the University of Washington's botany green house.
The enormous plant is about four and a half feet tall and looks like something out of The Little Shop of Horrors.
Though it may sound unkind, corpse flowers get their nickname because of the stench they release upon blooming. They're said to smell like rotting meat, latrines, and cooked cabbage.
Visitors are encouraged to see the rare bloom in person in the campus greenhouse. The plant has become scarce in the wild due to habitat loss - but a word of warning: don't get too close or you may end up smelling like a gym bag.
Why do they smell?
The smell attracts insects to pollinate the plant. The aroma is strongest the first night it blooms but the foul odor can linger for days afterward.
Researches and students at the UW have been cultivating corpse flowers since 1999. And, while they've successfully coaxed 14 previous plants to bloom, they still can't figure out how to trigger the bloom.
If you'd like to keep tabs on the flower's progress but can't make it in person, see it online at the UW biology department's Facebook page.

There is a major difference in sentiment between then and now, back then the public had not been bent over twice.
that is why all this retail will come in nonsense is laughable.
Yeah, this time it's different. Heard that many times in various industries and always the same result.
With QE they've cut out the middle man ; America.
With QE they've cut out the middle man ; America.
Relegating and lowering his status to what he is;
the mark.
Unemployment was also at generational lows and the government had a surplus. Now you have the Fed printing money for bankers to gamble with, not lend or to invest in infrastructure.
Yes but either way, it keeps money flowing through the system. Deflation is still the greater risk and appears to so far have been mitigated.
Margin debt levels are the same, if not higher.
Sentiment: Strong Sell
Yes, and that is why there is no longer any public.
The public was gone for an entire generation after the 30s. Good chance we see a repeat of that. I still think we see one more big bear but maybe this will be like the nifty fifties and SPX will print 10,000 in ten years.

Description St. Annes School, Chelmsford
St Anne's School is a very successful and inclusive school. We offer a firm foundation for life with small classes and individual attention, making it possible to explore and develop every child's potential. We believe that education is about preparing and equipping young people for life, not just for school.
With this philosophy as our inspiration, St Anne's School provides a stimulating environment where children enjoy learning and are encouraged and challenged to perform to the best of their ability in all areas of our curriculum. With children encouraged to set their own high standards, performance levels at St Anne's are often outstanding in both academic and vocational areas.
With no measure of success being considered too small to celebrate, our highly committed and caring staff will always convey this message to our children. High standards are expected of the children both in and outside the school and we encourage virtues of courtesy, honesty and kindness in all that we do.
St. Anne's benefits from a flourishing PTA which organises fundraising activities throughout the year. All parents in the school are invited to become members upon payment of a small subscription. The committee always welcomes new members and is open to new ideas. We run a number of popular events for both parents and children.
Those for children include the Christmas disco, Christmas raffle, Easter raffle, 'S Factor' show and, one of the children's favourites, the annual Fun Day. This is on the last day of term and the children enjoy a whole school picnic, bouncy castles, games and a variety of activity stalls. Parents can enjoy our quiz nights and the annual summer ball. The payment of subscriptions enable us to focus on 'fun' rather than 'fundraising' and also enables us to contribute towards several major school projects, such as, the installation of Astroturf on the football pitch and the purchase of the outdoor classroom, both of which are used regularly by the children.
Donations are also given to the school for the purchase of new football strips, musical instruments and sporting equipment. The PTA also run the second hand uniform sale which is normally held on the last Friday of each half term. The new uniform team can be contacted via our PTA email address.

Searchers find man with dementia in woodsApril 18,2014Searchers find
lost man in woods
WEST WINDSOR Volunteer firefighters searched through the woods and found an elderly West Windsor resident who suffers from dementia after he wandered away from his home Thursday morning.
The West Windsor Volunteer Fire Department along with police and an ambulance crew from Windsor were called out at 9:30 a.m. to form a search party on Weeden Hill Road.
Fire Chief Mike Spackman said at that point it had already been a little more than two hours since any family member had last seen the 80-year-old man, so searchers cast a wide net.
We had a bunch of people going in different directions because of the time difference, Spackman said, noting, He was not really properly attired for the conditions. It was 20 degrees.
We found him in the woods less than a half a mile from his house, Spackman said. The successful search effort took only about 45 minutes until the man, who was not identified, was found unharmed.
The ambulance people checked him out and we returned him home, Spackman said.MORE IN This Just InRutland got two goals from Eli Henni and Ryan McKay made three saves in notching the shutout as...

Klipsch Image S4A II headphones
These in-ear headphones are comfortable to wear and they produce excellent quality sound for all types of music
- Comfortable fit
- Excellent sound
- Can easily fall
Bottom Line
These stylish in-ear headphones from Klipsch are comfortable to wear and their output is excellent. We enjoyed using them for all types of music. The only problem we had is that they too easily fell out of our ears when we were a little too active or accidentally pulled on the cord.
Price$ 149.00 (AUD)
The Klipsch Image S4A II in-ear headphones have a patented design that is supposed to make them more comfortable to wear and easier to fit than many other in-ear designs on the market. Instead of being round, the silicone tips that are attached to the ear buds are oval, which more closely resembles the shape of an ear canal. But do they sound any good?
In fact, they produce exceptional sound and we think they're great for any type of music. They are clear at high volume, and they supply a full, well-rounded sound. We didn't notice any bias in the music at all when we played it back without the aid of any equaliser settings; highs were crisp, low frequencies were deep and rich, and voice didn't get cluttered in between. We were particularly satisfied by the bass response of these little buds at high volume, but low-volume listening also allowed us to here subtle low-frequency sounds.
We listened to a wide variety of music through these headphones: trance, folk, scratchy-sounding hip-hop, Greek popular music, guitar-heavy rock, and also live performances. File quality ranged from 192Kbps to 320Kbps in our tests, and we also did a lot of streaming from Google Play Music and Amazon Cloud Player over Wi-Fi — both services sounded just as good as our local files did. Klipsch says it tries to create products that recreate the live music experience, but all of the music we tried, live or studio-recorded, polished or grimy-sounding, was a joy to listen to through these buds. Tracks with heavy bass (such as the GZA's Auto Bio, for example) sounded tremendous, with the bass hitting heavily and, most importantly, with the clarity we expected of the track, even at full blast on our Samsung Galaxy II Note.
To get the best sound out of these headphones, you have to make sure that you use the appropriately sized tip for your ears. The most common size is medium, according to Klipsch, but the headphones are supplied with small and large tips, too. The tips need to form a seal around your ear canal in order to give you the sound response they are designed for, and we found them to be easy to insert and comfortable to wear. They didn't feel harsh on the ear, and they also didn't feel heavy.
However, we did have a problem with them falling out easily. Excessive movements while walking, or accidentally tugging at the headphone cord, made the ear buds pop out. We made sure that the line on the tip was aligned with the line on the bud's nozzle when we attached the tips, but the way the buds sat sticking out slightly from our ears made them a little unstable. If you use them while sitting, or while walking slowly, they should stay in place. Basically, don't use these while performing activities.
They do a decent job of isolating sound due to the seal that's formed between the tips and your ears, but they don't block everything out. During quiet tracks, you can still make out external noise if people around you are talking, for example, but for the most part they do a great job of blocking most external noise so that you can hear subtle sounds while outdoors or on public transport.
The Image S4A II headphones that we looked at are for Android, and they have a four-pole plug along with an inline control that can pause and play music with one tap (and answer calls), as well as skip tracks with multiple taps — though you'll need to install Klipsch's app from the Play store. The cord is flat and didn't get tangled, even when we just threw the headphones in our bag without caring. You can also get an iPhone version of these headphones (called Image S4i).
Apart from the issue we had with them falling out of our ears occasionally, we think these headphones are great. Their sound was superb to our ears, for all types of music, providing output that sounded clear, vibrant and true to the source.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Pickup truck plunges into riverSeptember 07,2013CLAREMONT, N.H. Police say a pickup driver who refused to stop for police in Claremont, N.H., speeded down a dead-end road, plunged into a river and swam away before he was found and arrested several hours later.
Police said the truck driven by 18-year-old Travis Hattery of Walpole crashed through trees, became airborne and crashed into the Sugar River early Friday.
A dive team searched for him; Hattery was later found in Claremont. He was charged with reckless conduct with a deadly weapon and other crimes. Police said the pickup was stolen.

WASHINGTON - Once a year, the people who run New Jersey take a walk to the nation's capital to hear the governor speak at a special congressional dinner.
Or do they?
At the annual New Jersey Chamber of Commerce dinner in Washington, reality isn't always what it seems.
Held Thursday and Friday for the 75th time, the annual event is the Garden State's version of the Pennsylvania Society gala in New York City, as politicians, lobbyists, business executives, union leaders, ntonprofit heads, and journalists schmooze, booze, deal, and wheel. It's one big smoky back room (except there's no smoking at the Marriott Wardman Park Hotel).

Review for Sky Island Alliance, Tucson, AZ, USA
The Board is informed of the details of the working biologists and the overall plan of direction for this organization. There is a general directive to follow the organizational outline very closely. The ED is on the carpet, so to speak, to answer all queries and responds with direct answers and examples. The entire organization responds with enthusiasm about their goals and plans such as the motion cameras which "capture" animal facts in wild lands and the restructuring of roads, streams and such that have been damaged by the use of the public or landowners. There is a high regard for land owners in all planning and a high regard for the SIA as evidenced by the high number of volunteers which work for the group.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
My own property in S. Az is a place for motion cameras and we see reports and know there is monthly tracking assessment and monthly camera information retreival. I have seen that there is great respect in the wildlands "community" and return of past members to events which indicates pride and admiration. As Board we try to "spread the knowledge" at events in the general areas of Arizona covered by the "sky islands" and find interested Arizonans everywhere.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
Do nothing.
