Lake and his wife, Trina, have two healthy children in Alyssa and Kylie, although that wasn't always the case. Alyssa, 8, was born with a hole in her heart and underwent open heart surgery at age 1. Alyssa is doing fine now, and Lake thanks the Helen DeVos Children's Hospital for that.
"They treated us so well," Lake said. "They made a permanent impression on us in how they treated and took care of us."
Lake has his own way of saying thanks. His goal is to park the Racingawarness.com Modified in Victory Lane as often as he can this season.
The West Michigan-based team was created a year ago and raises funds and awareness for the Helen DeVos Children's Hospital Foundation. Owners Jeff Striegle, Norm Jelsma and Mike Bursley went looking for a full-time driver during the offseason and found Lake.
PIT STOPSA look at the local and national scene:
Like it or hate it?
NASCAR's decision to toss out Sprint Cup regulars from racing for the Nationwide Series championship means that Reed Sorenson has a two-point lead over Elliott Sadler. Does that have you watching more Nationwide races? Didn't think so. NASCAR should allow the Cup drivers to run for the title, but make them start the races at the back of the field. That would put some excitement into it.
Hot and not
• Hot: Matt Kenseth has top-six finishes in six of the past 10 NASCAR Sprint Cup races.
• Not: Flying Ryan Newman has been grounded — just one top-10 in his past eight starts.
• Hot: Oriol Servia has five consecutive top-nine finishes heading into this weekend's IndyCar race at Texas.
• Not: Helio Castroneves' best finish through five IndyCar races is seventh, and he's 17th in points.
• Hot: Sebastian Vettel has won seven of the past Formula One races dating back to the final two races of 2010.
• Not: Felipe Massa hasn't been able to finish the past two Formula One races.
Grandpa, have at it
Car owner Richard Childress roughed up Kyle Busch after last weekend's Camping World Truck Series race. Childress must have forgotten that he once had a driver, Dale Earnhardt Sr., who was one of the sport's most aggressive and controversial drivers in the sport's history.
West Michigan Driver of the Week
Grandville's Tom Thomas is my pick for the week's top driver after he won his second Late Model feature race of the season last Saturday.
Lock of the week
Look for Lewis Hamilton to cool off Sebastian Vettel in Sunday's Grand Prix of Canada. Hamilton has won Canada in two of the past three years.
Lake will make track history if this keeps up. No driver has won track championships in three different classes in Berlin's 61-year history.
"I think things are going a lot better than anticipated," Lake said. "When we got our first win, I was quite surprised. We have never even really looked at anything like this, and I thought it would take about eight races to get a win."
It may seem surprising that Lake sent in his resume, considering he won Berlin's Super Stock track championship a year ago for car owner Keith Alexis. It was the second track title for Lake, a 20-year Berlin veteran; he also won the Pro Stock championship in 2006.
But Lake was eager to help the Racingawareness.com cause. Lake has made the transition from Super Stocks to Modifieds look easy, but he added that it is a lot more difficult than it looks to jump from a template-body stock car to an open wheel car.
Lake's original plan was to run both divisions, but he quickly came to the conclusion how unrealistic that goal was. He will run the Super Stock when the Modifieds are off this season, and he does have a feature win in Super Stocks.
"I thought I could run both cars, but after the first practice, I decided that we need to stay focused on the new car because I wasn't familiar with that," Lake said. "It's a huge adjustment because the Super Stocks need finesse. With the Modified, there is no front down force, and the car is very skittish. You have to go where it wants to go.
"You can beat up on a Super Stock for five laps, and then you will have to back off. You can beat up on the Modified for all 25 laps. You can be more aggressive with it."

ALPENA - Word spread quickly in Alpena Monday morning after the Federal Aviation Administration announced its decision of which states will be declared a center of excellence for unmanned aircraft research, testing and development and that Alpena County and Michigan were excluded. Most were disappointed, but many also were hopeful drone business still could become a reality in the area.
Alpena Area Chamber of Commerce Director of Economic Development Jim Klarich, who has been involved in the process with the Michigan Advanced Aerial Systems Consortium, said he was surprised by some of the locations that were chosen over the proposed sites in Michigan. He said the FAA's decision doesn't diminish the possibility of future growth in Alpena in the blossoming unmanned aircraft industry.
"We believe the assets we have here in Alpena will speak loudly to the appropriate audience in the industry," Klarich said. "We still have tremendous support from the Air National Guard and the Alpena Combat Readiness Training Center and it lends to our ability to do unmanned or manned development. I feel our site is second to none, at least east of the Mississippi. We think that will be very marketable to the private sector."
CRTC Base Commander Col. Bryan Teff said it is disappointing the center of excellence request was denied. He said the base is ready to move forward, and expects MIAASC and Alpena County will as well.
"From a military standpoint the base will be moving forward with its unmanned aircraft initiatives," Teff said. "Overall I think Alpena is going to have other opportunities. We just might need to look at some other strategies, but I think we will still be able to find success in this if we keep continuing to push forward."
Alpena Planning and Development Director Adam Poll hasn't been involved in the project because he has been in his position for the city for only a brief period of time. He said he has been brought up to speed on the issue of unmanned aircraft development in Alpena and he thinks efforts to move beyond the FAA selection must be made.
"It could have brought a great deal of investment into the city, but I'm still optimistic about the industry in Alpena and the higher paying jobs it could provide to the area," Poll said. "We still have all of the attributes and that should make us very attractive."
Some of the attributes that made the consortium proposal seem like a slam dunk to be accepted was the state has a variety of weather conditions to fly the drones, the proposed sites also has the largest restricted airspace east of the Mississippi River and much of the testing could take place over water or in low populated areas. The proximity of the military bases in Alpena and Grayling and access to international boarders also seemed like assets that could separate the proposal from the rest.
Chamber Executive Director Jackie Krawczak said she is disappointed in the decision, but expects the local business leaders and governing bodies to keep pushing ahead.
"There is still a great deal of potential and I think the people in the Alpena community are confident we have the ability to do this," Krawczak said. "Alpena has outstanding resources for that particular industry."
There were more than 50 proposals submitted to the FAA for one of the test sites and the MIAASC proposal made the first and only cut to the final 24. Alaska/Hawaii/Oregon, North Dakota, New York, Nevada, Texas, as well as a partnership effort between Virginia and New Jersey were the FAA's choices for the research facilities.

Campus cravings
Nothing quite beats a life on the open road. The scenery changes, the people change and, above all, the food is always different, always exciting. We've seen this great country of ours and eaten more Indian regional and street food than anyone else alive today. No tall claim this, just a hard fact. It's been a whirlwind journey over five years that have just flown past. Six-eight hour drives, four to six meals a day, tight deadlines and even tighter budgets, we've had to be committed, creative, focused, self-motivated and, above all, always hungry. We can proudly say that we've managed so far. No small feat considering we've eaten almost 3, 000 different kinds of dishes from every state across the country. They've ranged from the sublime (early morning dosas at Udupi with the smell of jasmine in the air as devotees throng to Lord Krishna's temple) to the shocking (dog meat roasted over a fire along with the dreaded Naga 'King' chilly) to the unique (Raagi Muddai or ragi balls meant to be dipped into spicy grave and swallowed, not chewed) and unabashedly delicious (Meen Polichattu and appams with fresh toddy by the backwaters at Kumarakom, Kerala).
Each journey, unique and rewarding though it might have been, has taken a toll. Snatching a few hours of sleep in sometimes downright dowdy hotels in faraway places that no one ever seems to visit and then travelling as much as 800 kilometres in a day can wear down even the most optimistic of men. The one thing that kept us going has been the love and affection received from our fans. But we were feeling a little worn out all the same and so a plan was made to try and do an entire series with a section of India's population that has boundless energy, never ending optimism and a never say die attitude. The plan involved our nation's greatest asset, the young students of India.
We decided to catch up with students and see what they ate at their educational institutions - boarding schools and famous colleges - and to explore the 'addas' or the cool hangout joints they visited. Some were flush with choices of great and cheap (a very important factor for most students) food in and around their schools and colleges and others were perhaps a little less fortunate. The one thing they all had in common though was a favourite 'adda' that they frequented and that had evolved its menus and prices to suit these dedicated and consistent customers.
In our new season of Highway On My Plate on NDTV Good Times we cover thirteen of these amazing temples of education but we're only going to talk about a few here.
Started in 1854 as the Protestant Girls School in Cainville house in Mussoorie, two years later the school moved to its current location and in 1862 became known as The Woodstock School. It is a stunningly beautiful campus and has students and faculty from all over the world. The majority of its students are Indian and the school has got several things right. I'm not just talking about the student-driven food committee or the delicious seafood, chicken and vegetarian hamburgers we ate there with French fries, corn and a delicious orange mousse. I'm talking about the confidence and assurance we saw in its students. The school band put up a special performance during lunch and it was wonderful to see kids enjoying their music sitting in their dining hall or just relaxing in the 'Quad' (quadrangle ). Did we already mention the food was great? We'll do it again just in case. The food was great!
We enjoyed our visit to all the institutions but one that stood out simply due to the fact that the students just loved the food in their canteen, was the Welham Girls School. The school has managed to create a truly remarkable environment for the young ladies who study here. It is a beautiful campus and meticulously maintained. To quote the school's website, "In 1957 an ageing lady decided to acquire the small estate of an erstwhile Nawab to start a boarding school for young Indian girls. There were no funds, no staff, and no school buildings. Yet Miss Oliphant refused to give up her mission. She entrusted the task of setting up and running the school to Miss Grace Mary Linnell who became the Founder-Principal. 'Nasreen', the large bungalow of Nawab Saiduzzafar, was transformed into Welham, named after a Welsh village. "
The current principal, Mrs Jyotsna Brar, took us to the kitchen for a small walkabout and we refused to leave. The school makes the best lemon tart we have ever had (or actually the best 14 lemon tarts we have ever had... we couldn't stop at one). It is also famous for its 'Senti' karhi. This karhi-chawal combo is the best loved dish at school and has always been so. Ask any Welhamite and they will tell you all about it. They also love a sandwich called the 'skandie' (short for Scandinavian) and make the most famous chikki in Dehradun. This is often made by the students for functions and is always a sellout. God knows we sneaked out as much of it as we could. If there was a prize to be given for the 'Best Loved' food in any institution, Welham Girls School would win hands down.
What was truly special though was our favourite 'Adda', the Chachhe di Hattti or Chachhe ke Chole Bhature in Kamla Market, Delhi University. The amazing chhola-bhaturas here still draw crowds and there is always a line no matter what time you go. This is a mighty chhola bhatura indeed and you will love it. In fact we've gone back to Delhi University a few times just to partake of this legendary snack.
We also visited a few colleges including one of our favourites, the Shri Ram College of Commerce, also known popularly as SRCC, Delhi. Rocky went to this college and Mayur, who is from the adjoining Khalsa College, spent many a lazy afternoon at the canteen here. The canteen has changed a little but the menu is totally different. In addition to the samosas and bread pakoras there is now also rajma chawal, karhi chawal and everyday at least one wholesome meal at very affordable prices. So many years later the food still tastes incredible. Honestly, it's probably just ordinary but I guess it's the memories and strong associations that make it special.

Northampton County's district
attorney is skeptical that a former assistant volleyball coach accused of having sex with a high school student will qualify for a special program
for first-time offenders.
Stephanie Merlo, 29, of Bangor, is accused of having a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old female Pius X High School student between September and November 2013, according to court papers.
Merlo applied today for the special program of accelerated rehabilitative disposition. If she completes the program, she can have her criminal charges of institutional sexual assault and two counts of corruption of minors wiped from her criminal record.
District Attorney John Morganelli said today he had not reviewed Merlo's request but said he typically rejects ARD requests for those charged with sex offenses.
"I'll look at it but it's probably a stretch for ARD," he said.
If Morganelli agrees to recommend ARD, a defendant needs approval by a county judge to enter the program.
Merlo was working as a volunteer assistant coach for the high school volleyball team when she engaged in a sexual relationship with the teen, according to court records. Merlo allegedly had sex with the student on three occasions.
She is also accused of buying the student marijuana and smoking the drug with her, though she denied to police that she ever used the drug with the teen.
Two unidentified people came forward about the relationship out of concern for the teenager, according to court records.
Merlo's attorney, William Watkins, did not return a phone call seeking comment.
Watkins previously said court papers don't reflect what truly happened and added he does not envision the case reaching trial.
Merlo is no longer involved with the school, which began cooperating with authorities as soon as it learned of the allegations, according to Matt Kerr, spokesman with the Diocese of Allentown.
Merlo was appointed to Bangor Borough Council in October but her resignation was accepted in January. She remains free on $75,000 unsecured bail.

1 Frank Ocean
Channel Orange
"Whoever you are, wherever you are, I'm starting to think we're a lot alike." Frank Ocean wrote that on his Tumblr, right before revealing that he'd once fallen for another man. Of course, his confession generated attention because it was groundbreaking — a hip-hop star of his stature had never admitted to same-sex love. But his words have also become a mantra for a new generation of R&B fans — those who believe in a bigger kind of love, not just the type that requires 1,200-thread-count sheets. Channel Orange feels like the bravest act of vulnerability in recent memory. Whether Ocean is imagining what it's like to raise a kid with no money ("Making less than minimum wage/Still inside our parents' homes") or thinking about the loneliness drug addicts must feel ("Your family stopped inviting you to things/Won't let you hold their infant"), his empathy runs so deep, it hurts. Even his visionary twist on avant electro, which draws inspiration from "Bennie and the Jets," Stevie Wonder, and boom-bap beats, offers a lesson for everyone from indie rockers to hip-hop diehards: We all connect to the same heartfelt music. If that's not love, what is?

2. Fiona Apple
The Idler Wheel is Wiser Than the Driver of the Screw and Whipping Cords Will Serve You More Than Ropes Will Ever Do
What's it like inside Fiona Apple's crazy-brilliant head? This thrilling mood-tornado of an album gives us a chance to find out — and it sounds amazing in there. Whether she's banging on the piano hard enough to chase out the demons or battle-crying with all the fury of a warrior chief, Apple always cranks up the intensity to yellow-alert level. And it's difficult not to feel the same delirious passion for her songs, which are so intimate, you'll believe her when she swears her chest is about to burst open like an egg, splattering her heart yolk all over. It's an apt metaphor for Apple, who has created a work of heartbreaking beauty. You'll adore it for just as long as it takes you to read that album title: forever.

3. Japandroids
Celebration Rock
When was the last time indie rock wore its excitement like a badge of honor, safety-pinned to its hoodie sleeve? There's nothing ironic or detached about this exhilarating blast of Canadian bar-punk. Not the title. Not the explosion of fireworks that opens the album. Not the roaring guitars, which get everything pounding: your heart, your fist, your beer. And certainly not the lyrics, which broadcast the band's live-for-today, rage-till-tomorrow ethos with such conviction, it's only a matter of time before they're tattooed across some dude's neck: "Remember saying things like 'We'll sleep when we're dead'/And thinking this feeling was never going to end?" As long as they play basement-club anthems this visceral, we'll never forget.
Best track: "The House That Heaven Built"
4. Miguel
Kaleidoscope Dream
You want freaky? This R&B charmer can give you that and then some. Whether he's bragging about his bedroom skills or deep-frying the Zombies' "Time of the Season" until it burbles psychedelic soul, he belongs to a weirdo-prophet tradition that stretches back through Maxwell, Marvin Gaye, and other belt notchers who've been blessed with a voice so smooth and golden, it can turn even the most explicit slow jams into high art.
Best track: "Don't Look Back"
5. Lord Huron
Lonesome Dreams
Sometimes this hazy folk-pop feels light enough to drift away like a tumbleweed. But then, that's the allure of Benjamin Schneider's campfire lullabies, which were crafted in Los Angeles and sound like they were baked in the desert sunsets there. The songs come on softly, with wind-chime intros and jangly acoustic guitars, and the sweetness of the melodies lingers long after they're gone. By the end, when he sings about listening to the wind, the music feels almost spiritual, especially when the lonesome harmonies kick in. You could call it heavenly, if it didn't sound so achingly human.

This is Yoshifuji's depiction of the renowned fight between Ushiwakamaru (better known as MINAMOTO YOSHITSUNE) and the monk Benkei
on the moonlit bridge, Gojobashi, in Kyoto. The diptych comes with a preliminary drawing of the right panel. In this early stage of the design
development, Ushiwakamaru's proportions were much larger, filling the entire upper half of the sheet. By reducing the size of the body, - placing
the jumping boy farther to the distance, i.,e., the artist gained more (pictorial) depth, also accentuated by a more prominent mountain range.
YOSHIFUJI was a pupil of Kuniyoshi; he specialized in pictures of warriors, and also illustrated children's books.

Despite the tough economic times, Lake Fenton schools superintendent Ralph Coaster is asking voters to renew a 1-mill sinking fund millage for another 10 years. Voters approved the previous 10-year millage in 2000.
Coaster said the sinking fund can only be used for restoration, improvements, new additions and the purchase of property.
"A sinking fund is very specific in what it can be used for," he said. "It can't be used for personnel, it can't be used for paychecks, it can't be used for textbooks, furniture, equipment, anything of that nature."
Coaster said the millage has raised $480,000 to $550,000 per year over the past 10 years. Under the millage, a homeowner with a $100,000 taxable value would pay $100 per year.
The district used sinking fund dollars to add new parking lots and additional classrooms to West Shore Elementary and renovations to Torrey Hill Elementary and Lake Fenton Middle School, Coaster said. The district also purchased the property where the current Lake Fenton High School exists with sinking fund money.
Coaster is looking toward other improvements that need to soon be made, like roofing repairs and possibly additions to school buildings to compliment marginal student increases that have occurred in recent years.
"The sinking fund is critical for us to maintain these facilities," he said. "Otherwise, we're going to have to dip into our general fund and that's not logical, that's not something we want to do."
Voters will also decide two school board seats. The terms of board president Stan Bragg and vice president Robert Grubbs are up this spring.

For completeness here is a link to the earlier announcement:Royal Ballet 2002/2003 Season
I could be wrong but suspect its a financial thing so that all the dancers can get home after a performace rather than hotels and all that expense...
Past Masters sounds like past-it masters. How offensive. Is this past-it masters company a year round thing or is it for small tours?...
I also did not like the tone of the ROH spokesman..."we don't listen to you anyway" in regard to the public's opinions. What a complete jerk!
Does anyone agree with me...
As part of this deal there is apparently a contractual obligation to buy up all the remaining 'monkey' soft toys, which were given free to subscribers of ITV digital. Incredibly, these will be 'recycled' as ballet and opera stars and sold in the ROH Shop. There are plans to sell 'Darcey Monkey', 'Sylvie Monkey', 'Bryn Monkey' as well as various other characters based upon public demand....
If this what the ROH consider to be the way forward then I must be missing something!!
I'm afraid for those who took it all seriously that these were April fools!
The seat-back one was by Lynette and is actually based on a true story and some form of seat back display for ROH has come up in several Opera House interviews. The rest may, or may not, be on their minds!
Be interesting to take bets on if RB will have a 'Past Master' company within the next 10 years!
And my biggest find in pulling all the links together.... The Ashley Page one - a pure gem if you missed it
Brilliant stuff. Fell hook line and sinker for Lynette's piece.
Unfortunately, it's all too credible.

More on Photo Film Developing
Technology has made it possible for digital cameras to take better quality photos. Not only can you see your photos before you print them, but you have the option of uploading them to your computer and making necessary adjustments to provide the best photo possible. After making the necessary adjustments you can print your photos at home and save yourself the hassle of going to a store and waiting around for an hour. You can also guarantee that you will like the photos you print instead of paying money for blurry or red eye photos. The same is true for photo film developing. It is way easier for film makers to develop their film these days. Making a movie used to be a lot more hands on and a lot more time consuming. Now, with the help of computer technology, most editing is done within minutes and the result is amazing picture quality.

Policy & Enforcement Briefing: Oil Safety Alert, BNSF Suit, GSA Seeks Industry Input
The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration issued a safety alert in response to last week's oil train derailment and fire near Casselton, N.D., warning that crude oil from the state's Bakken formation may be more flammable than traditional heavy crude, The Hill reported. The region's light sweet crude oil has a burning point below 73 F, the agency warned.
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) said Friday that the House could hold a final vote on the Water Resources Reform and Development Act this month, The Hill reports. The bill would authorize about $8 billion worth of water infrastructure projects. Congressmen and senators have been negotiating on a compromise bill since the House passed its version in October.
Senior US District Judge Lonny Suko on Thursday denied a motion to dismiss a lawsuit that the Sierra Club and other groups filed against BNSF, charging that the company's trains were discharging coal dust into Washington waterways in violation of the Clean Water Act, the Bellingham Herald reports. Plaintiffs also include the Natural Resources Defense Council, Puget Soundkeeper, Columbia Riverkeeper, Spokane Riverkeeper, RE Sources for Sustainable Communities, and Friends of the Columbia Gorge.
US Circuit Judge Edith Brown Clement granted BP's request for fast-track consideration for the company's effort to stop Gulf of Mexico economic-loss payments that cannot be shown as linked to the spill, Bloomberg reports. BP said US District Judge Carl Barbier had ignored an earlier decision requiring him to examine causation.
The General Services Administration is seeking industry feedback to help the agency develop a government-wide Building Maintenance and Operations services program, potentially covering HVAC, waste management, janitorial services, grounds maintenance, utilities and other services. GSA seeks recommendations about how savings can be measured and achieved, either by demand management strategies, better acquisition or improved performance management. The response period will close on January 17, and the agency will host an "Industry Day" next month.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has published draft guidance for assessing the effects of anthropogenic sound on marine mammal species under NOAA's jurisdiction. The guidance provides updated received levels, or thresholds, above which individual marine mammals are predicted to experience changes in their hearing sensitivity (either temporary or permanent) for all underwater anthropogenic sound sources. NOAA is soliciting public comment on the draft guidance.
The EPA has issued a final rule establishing an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of dimethyl esters of glutaric acid (i.e., dimethyl glutarate), succinic acid (i.e., dimethyl succinate), and adipic acid (i.e., dimethyl adipate), when used as inert ingredients (as solvents/co-solvents) in pesticide formulations applied to growing crops and raw agricultural commodities after harvest. Consultants SciReg petitioned for the exemption on behalf of chemical company Rhodia.
In a final rule, under section 215 of the Federal Power Act, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has approved a revised Reliability Standard, PRC-005-2—Protection System Maintenance, to supersede four existing Reliability Standards, PRC-005-1.1b (Transmission and Generation Protection System Maintenance and Testing), PRC-008-0 (Underfrequency Load Shedding Equipment Maintenance), PRC-011-0 (Undervoltage Load Shedding Equipment Maintenance) and PRC-017-0 (Special Protection System Maintenance and Testing).

Cornerstone Family Programs (formerly Family Service of Morris County) founded in 1813 and the Morristown Neighborhood House founded in 1898 have been changing lives in the community for a combined 315 years. In June of this year, Cornerstone Family Programs and the Morristown Neighborhood House joined forces to build better lives and stronger communities through high-quality professional services for 10,000 children, adults, and seniors in our community.

PITTSGROVE TWP. — A back and forth debate ensued here Thursday night during a public hearing at the Pittsgrove Township Municipal Building over a proposed 230kV redundancy transmission line that Atlantic City Electric officials say they are mandated to construct.
But local Pittsgrove and Upper Pittsgrove residents say past mistakes and continued misinformation has left them unable to trust the local utility company.
Though plans have not been finalized, the new line is expected to span roughly 5.8 miles through Upper Pittsgrove and Pittsgrove townships. Atlantic City Electric has proposed 4.1 miles of the new line to run parallel to the existing 138kV Tower Lines. The 1.7 mile portion will rest on a newly-acquired right of way in Pittsgrove Township owned by Dun-Rite Sand & Gravel Co.
The poles on the newly-acquired right of way will be located approximately five feet from the edge of the right of way butting up right against many local residents properties.
In total, the proposed lines will require the construction of 60 new steel poles with heights ranging anywhere from 70 feet to 99 feet above ground.
"I want to know what you are going to do when one of those poles falls onto my private property," said Pittsgrove resident Henry DuBois.
During the hearing, Atlantic City Electric Region Vice President Robert Revelle gave some history into the project.
He stated that this project was initiated because the Pennsylvania New Jersey Maryland Interconnection (PJM) identified the need for the electric company to enhance reliability of the electric system for customers in southern New Jersey.
"This directive led us to construct the Orchard Substation, and also called for two transmission line," said Revelle. "The project is incomplete and we have already made a sizable investment."
Revelle said they were given this directive in 2003 and since that time the utility company has spent upward of $50 million to fulfill the mandate of PJM.
In 2008, they were successful with the construction of the Orchard Substation and the first 230kV line, but the second line was stalled because of complications with location.
Originally, Atlantic City Electric wanted to run the second line down Route 77, but was denied twice by the New Jersey Department of Transportation because of the potential safety hazard of the towering steel poles. Land around Route 77 is also preserved farmland.
The big push from the Stop the Poles group and other local residents has been for the line to be buried underground on Route 77.
"We shouldn't have to suffer because Atlantic City Electric didn't do their homework the first time around," said Stop the Poles member Jennifer Coombs.
Coombs said in her presentation going underground would eliminate the large steel poles that affect the rural vistas of both township. She said it would also extinguish the environmental and heath concerns that can arise from disturbing the old rail bed during construction.
Evidence was presented, by the Stop the Poles Group, that disturbing the railroad bed would release carcinogens into nearby wetlands.
Revelle said above ground construction is always the preferred method because it is more reliable and it is easier to fix if there is an outage. He said they bury lines only if there is no other option, such as in more urban areas.
Cost was also a talking point Thursday night.
The new line, if run above ground, is expected to cost approximately $5.8 million. If they were to run the lines underground 1.4 miles, the cost would jump to $15.1 million.
"You folks pay a portion of this and it gets spread over a larger group of customers," said Revelle.
Pittsgrove Township Committeeman Kurt Craver presented a different view point. He thought the rate payers would not be up in arms if they had to pay more.
"Residents of this state time and time again have approved bonds for Green Acres and preserved open space to protect our vistas," said Craver. "I don't see where the rate payers would have a problem paying the difference between going over head and underground."
Atlantic City Electric Public Affairs Manager Adalberto "Bert" Lopez said currently there are no new updates on the project. They have not submitted an application to the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection nor have they petitioned to the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities or the Pittsgrove Planning Board.

Other suburi than Iwama
Hi All...
Everyone, well many I should say - at east their existence- know Saito sensei's ken suburi.
But I have a few questions:
- are there any other suburi in "traditional" koryu?
- is the very word suburi used in other MA or koryu
- can we see them somewhere if they exist?
With many thanks for your answers...
Re: Other suburi than Iwama
Hello Leon,
Suburi means practice swing or strike in Japanese. You use the word in Japanese for any kind of instrument that is wielded in this manner. The word is used in martial arts that include weapons forms where you do repeated exercises with them in order to better your form. In sports such as golf and baseball you also practice "suburi."
If you google tissier + suburi you will find Tissier Sensei's version of bokken suburi. This is just one example of many, where you will find the movements are different from the Iwama suburi. Of course there will always be elements that are the same, but you will find that the suburi of the given style are structured so they enhance the unique forms and usage of the ken as applied in this style.
In aiki,
Ethan Weisgard
Re: Other suburi than Iwama
Hi Ethan,
thanks, I know the meaning of suburi and I have done loads so that the meaning is now completely metabolized:D .
I couldn't find relevant docs or videos on the net that's why I asked here. I was wondering if suburi - as a repetition - is part of traditional training outside Aikido and under which forms...
Still looking...:o
Re: Other suburi than Iwama
Systematized suburi practice is present in some but not all koryu kenjutsu, though I don't think there are any systems that do nearly as much as Saito Sensei's or other Aikido suburi systems.
Ono-ha Itto ryu, when I saw them train a couple years ago, would practice their standard kamae, and then do a simple series of straight cuts from their In and Yo kamae, which are essentially right and left hasso.
I have seen a type of suburi practice from, I believe, Muto ryu, where the sword is raised to jodan and a deep breath is drawn in and packed down into the hara. A deep, long-reaching cut is made and the swordsman fully exhales...then, when there is absolutely no air in the lungs, the swordsman exhales a bit more.
Probably one of the most interesting I have seen is that in Jiki Shinkage ryu, where it is sufficiently integrated into their training that they demonstrate it at embu. Also, they apparently like to use the entire tree as a suburito, which is called a furibo.
Sokaku Takeda practiced Jiki Shinkage ryu and brought this type of suburi into Daito ryu. Thanks to Chris Li we can see that Sagawa enjoyed this type of suburi.
(I am not actually sure that this is called "suburi" in Jiki Shinkage ryu.)
Re: Other suburi than Iwama
Re: Other suburi than Iwama
I didn't realise that Sokaku Takeda had a connection with this school.
Re: Other suburi than Iwama
Takeda Sokaku spoke about this connection, and Takeda Tokimune writes quite a bit about it (see Aikido Journal). It's almost surely true. FWIW, there is, however, no independent record or recollection of this within Jikishinkage-ryu, whose enrollment in those days was quite large. In Tokimune's writing, Sokaku is described as a very significant member of the school, during his period of enrollment. It's possible that he was there, but not nearly so prominent as his son describes.
Similarly, Wang Shu Chin claimed to be a student of Chang Chao-Tung, one of the greatest of bagua instructors. He was not recalled, however, as an indoor student - rather, it is more likely that he just attended Chang's classes as part of the "crowd."
Ellis Amdur
Re: Other suburi than Iwama
The demonstrators did a lot of these breathing techniques and some kata, none of the suburi though. I also demonstrated daito ryu at the gasshuku.
Personally, I couldn't see a huge connection between Daito ryu and Jikishinkage ryu. The breathing techniques struck me as being more akin to goju ryu style karate, and even some sumo conditioning exercises..
I"m no expert in this ryu at all, but the demonstrators in your video looked very different to the demo I witnessed. The way they used their feet was completely different.
Oh, I believe, Ishida Kazusoto, who was a chief justice in Japan and close friend of both Horikawa Kodo and Shioda Gozo, was ranked in this ryu (He definately was ranked in a style of itto ryu)
As a personal observation, I was always told that daito ryu and itto ryu were closely related. I actually think daito ryu and tatsumi ryu have a lot of similarities (to my eyes). However, I have never trained in a sword ryu. There is enough to learn about grabbing before moving on to stabbing :)
Re: Other suburi than Iwama
I haven't seen enough of Tatsumi ryu to notice any similarities. There are plenty of things in koryu that resemble other things in koryu with which they have absolutely no connection, in my experience, so beware. :)

The Raw Talk for Life Program
Briggs Law San Francisco supports Raw Talk for Life, which is a unique and aggressive community outreach program that focuses on violence prevention among youth in San Francisco and the Bay Area.

The entire Raw Talk team is dedicated to providing a pure community service partnership where the priority is always at-risk youth and is untainted by personal agendas which is why we carefully select our community partners.
Executive Director: Eli Crawford the III
Eli Crawford was the leader of the largest Black prison gang in America. He spent over 40 years behind bars in the California State Prison system and the Federal system.

He spends a majority of his day standing face to face with at-risk men and women on the street corners and in the jails helping them understand that there is a better way. Eli is one of the few people who has the street credibility to work with this population effectively. Eli can be reached at email@example.com.
Co-Director: Rico Hamilton
Rico Hamilton was a gang member and after spending time in the California State Prison system he committed his life to helping the African-American community to choose education and advancement instead of gangs and prison. Rico has successfully developed early intervention programming for youth in the Western Addition. His role with Raw Talk is not only as a powerfully articulate and active mentor but also the Program Coordinator for Raw Talk. Rico can be reached at email@example.com.
Administrative Director: Curtis L. Briggs
Curtis L. Briggs is committed to helping at-risk youth understand how to succeed despite the fact they may not have the best options in life.

He coordinates and supervises administrative activities for Raw Talk. Curtis can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Findings for PPC in Milwaukee
Milwaukee Ranks Amongst Most Expensive Markets for Keywords in Rocky Mountain States
SEP's ongoing research into PPC Campaigns has revealed that Milwaukee was the 17th most expensive city in Rocky Mountain States in keyword bids in Google Adwords for the month of September 2016. Milwaukee also ranks amongst the most expensive cities in Wisconsin, ranking 1st. In the study, Ann Arbour ranked as the most expensive city in Rocky Mountain States for keywords, while Fort Wayne ranked as the least expensive city.
Year over Year Google Adwords Prices for Milwaukee are up in September 2016
SEP's research shows that the average price of a click to advertisers targeting Milwaukee keywords increased by (Yr/Yr increase %)% versus the same keywords one year earlier.
Google Adwords Keyword Prices 104% Higher in Milwaukee than Kenosha
SEP's research also tracks Google Adwords price changes and trends in cities across Canada and the U.S. Recent data shows that average prices in Milwaukee are 104% higher than in Kenosha. The average price of a click in Milwaukee is $16.70.
This price difference is understandable though, given the population of Kenosha is less than Milwaukee, which generally means less competition and therefore lower prices.
To understand if prices in Milwaukee are relatively low, we also compared prices with Albuquerque which has a similar population, and found the average price of a click in Milwaukee was 9% higher than in Albuquerque. This suggests that perhaps Milwaukee prices are not relatively low.
The Price Rank shows how expensive keywords are in certain industry and segment relative to other cities in a country, region and province.

Over-allowed or 'overpaid' benefit is dealt with differently to Council Tax or Business Rates.
If you have been overpaid Council Tax Benefit, any overpayment is added back into your Council Tax account. It will then form part of your instalments and can be paid in the usual way.
If you live in a Council House and have been overpaid Housing Benefit, we will aim to recover this amount through your 'on-going' benefit entitlement. This means that if you are still entitled to some Housing Benefit, we will hold back a set amount each week to clear off the overpayment. The amount of the overpayment will not be debited straight back onto your rent account.
If you are no longer entitled to Housing Benefit, we will send you an invoice for the overpayment and, if you contact us, we will make an arrangement for you to pay it off.
In a similar way to people in Council houses, we will aim to make deductions from any 'on-going' benefit entitlement to clear the overpayment, or we could send an invoice direct to you.
However, if we have paid your rent allowance to your landlord or letting agent, and we are satisfied that they contributed to causing the overpayment, we may choose to recover it direct from them.
If the arrears remain outstanding or you have not made an arrangement to pay, your account may be passed to the Council's Legal section for further action. This may result in the issue of a summons which would incur additional costs to you.
Please contact us if you have any queries about recovery of over-allowed Benefit.

On this Tuesday I was trying to get from LA to Saint Louis non-rev. Instead of taking AA from LAX to STL, I decided to get a little creative and go from BUR to CMH on Skybus, then connect to STL. I have been wanting to fly Skybus since they started ops in Bur but never had the chance before. I was excited.
Showed up about 45 min before departure checked in with the contract employee who worked both the counter and the gate, very friendly and efficient lady. I got the approval to jumpseat and headed for the gate. After a quick trip to the magazine stand for some reading material for the 4 hour flight, walked up to the gate and found the brand new A319 just arrived and pax were already in line waiting to board. I have to say that this was the only negative thing I have to say about Skybus, their boarding process, it's kind of like Southwests but less organized, I think it's fine now since they don't have that much traffic/flights but as they grow they will have to fix the way their boarding process.
Got up to the airplane and was greeted by very friendly and happy flight attendants, the cabin was very nice, airy and very spacious. The leather seats were very nice looking and from what I saw they were designer airline seats, very comfortable and space efficient. Load factor seemed about 70%, most rows were taken but not completely. Many families not that many business travelers. Capt came on gave some usueful info about the flight everybody got ready they buttoned up the airplane and we were on our way about 5 min late.
Lax at the bottom left corner.
After a very smooth departure and the big arching U turn to avoid the busy Los Angeles airspace we were on our way toward the desert and then East towards Ohio. At about 10K feet the flight attendant came on and started to explain what we would be experiencing as far as service and what Skybus offered. Basically they offer a menu, drinks, and a shopping experience. They also mentioned that tips would be appreciated. As I was flying for free I decided to support skybus so I grabbed the menu/shopping guide in the seatback pocket and ordered a Deli Sandwich and a Sierra Mist. Service was very very friendly I guess working under commission motivates people. The sandwich looked bad but it was really good and tasty, so was the cookie. Around this time we were flying just south of Las Vegas.
So after the dining experience and with nice and comfortable flight, I decided to read my popular science. Interesting article on there about the effect on global warming and air travel. Time flew by. Before I we knew it we were over Norther Kansas as the pilot pointed out. At that time the FA made and annoucement that they were going to begin the selling of items. They also asked the cabin who had the 10 dollar tickets 50 and 100, that was pretty fun. I was pleasantly surprised that Skybus flight attendants do not bother pax about buying items. I've read from past reports that FAs come by very often selling things but this was not what I experienced at all. They were very polight and came by with the cart only two times.
Just to talk a little about the cabin, it's an A319 that is stuffed full of seats, I believe that they have 149 seats. However their designer seats made the 31" seat pitch less noticeable it was actually quite comfortable. Also the overhead panel with the vents and the light was totally of a new design and very cool looking. For example the lights kind of looked like the xeon lights you'd see on Luxury cars and they fade on and off which was pleasing to the eyes. Overall was very impressed with the airplane. As I was nearing the end of my magazine so was our journey to Columbus we started our descent from 39000 into an overcast CMH. The four flight attendants did their last minute announcements and got the cabin ready for an on time arrival. As soon as we got underneath the overcast layer and we were treated to snow covered Colombus, I heard a couple of people saying they'd wish the CA would make a U turn back for the sunny LA.
Overall I was really impressed and this trip kind of validated my view on Skybus as a real and legitimate operation that deserve some credit. They are trying something different that no other airline has tried. And with the price of oil, this way may be the only way upstarts can survive. Still they still have to solve their little quirks mainly on the ground. I was worried that this was literally going to turn into a 4 hour bus ride but I was really intrigued and even entertained by the FAs and the whole Skybus operation.
