Back when I was working outside of the home (oh, there I go again! mentioning work! and how I stay home now!), Harrison and I didn't roll into the driveway until 6:15pm on average. Bedtime strictly began at 7pm so I will let you do the math…
…but I was never good at math and I'll assume nobody else was, so that's 45 minutes each night to fix and serve and eat supper, play, plus do any "loud" picking-up like vacuuming. We were in a time crunch, to put it kindly. I stressed every night about quick, healthy meals and quality time with my kiddo and it never seemed to be enough. We could have delayed bedtime, except we were already having to wake him each morning to hurry out the door by 7am…which made an already long day for my little guy.
So when I started being home (there I go again!), Harrison had the chance to sleep in and we started pushing back bedtime. Now I am wondering if we went to far and if his over-tiredness is the cause of his recent behavior issues.
It started off so innocently, that my husband wanted more time with Harrison at the end of the day and I'd say, "Well, he can sleep in!" so bedtime was pushed to 7:30pm. Then 7:45pm. Then 8:00pm. I'm kind of ashamed to say that lately, my two-year-old has been hitting the hay around 8:45pm lately, almost a full two hours past the schedule he kept just two months ago. It was fine in the beginning when he was sleeping in until 8am and sometimes 9am, but with the time change and sunlight, he's been up by 7am the past few weeks.
He's also started being far more defiant, much more picky with food and throwing the most EPIC tantrums over the tiniest thing. My once easy-going tot is a full-on hurricane of unbridled energy and emotion and I am left wondering…is it because he's over-tired?
He's only logging 10 hours per night when he used to snag almost 12 and with his age, he's also starting to cut back on naps. So maybe the behavior that I write-off as "two" or "adjusting" to me being home is really just a very exhausted toddler.
Tonight we're going to have him in bed by 8pm and keep that regular and hopefully we will see a change in attitude. Have you ever faced a problem like this? I'd love to know your thoughts and tips!

Posted on September 04, 2014The Art of Dining
Posted on September 04, 2014The offbeat Five Church, named for it's Uptown address, does not look like any other restaurant in tradition-bound Charlotte,
Posted on September 18, 2014As we bid adieu to the polar vortex, we look forward to warm spring weather and a got dining scene, OpenTable, the world's leading provider of online restaurant reservations, is pleased to honor the 2014 Diners' Choice Award winners for the Top 100 Hot Spot Restaurants in America.
Posted on September 04, 2014Stylish new-American restaurant is the darling of the downtown scene. Dinners from $16.
Posted on September 04, 20145Church is rocking the restaurant scene with New American cuisine, sleek decor and an extensive bar menu.
Posted on September 04, 2014It's hard to pinpoint what exactly makes 5Church so outstanding. Maybe it's the interior or maybe it's the menu. Most likely it's the combination of the two.
Posted on August 29, 2012From Carrie Geisler, mixologist at 5Church in Charlotte, N.C. Blenheim's ginger ale is recommended for its spicy kick.
Posted on January 15, 2013Dining also is less expensive. At 5Church, a restaurant frequented by bankers whose head chef spent time at New York's Le Cirque and Daniel Boulud's Cafe Boulud, an American Kobe Flatiron Steak goes for $40.
Posted on September 04, 2012In the late afternoon, with rain pouring down in Charlotte, the delegates moved to 5Church, an uptown restaurant, for a party hosted by the Human Right Campaign.
Posted on August 23, 2012Sleek style and specialty cocktails set the tone at the new 5Church (127 N. Tryon St.), where private parties for the DNC's visiting celebs are already booked.
Posted on September 04, 2014Worthwhile spot to relish some pre-dinner plates is the multi-tiered 5Church
Posted on September 12, 2014Aptly named for its location at the intersection of Fifth and Church, 5Church has the look and feel of an Ian Schrager hotel and the food that will "make you wanna slap somebody's momma!"
Posted on September 04, 20145Church paired one of Charlotte's best chefs with one of its top interior designers, resulting in a menu and space that are both detail-rich and filled with flavor.

A Staten Island neighborhood association is calling on residents to boycott Belmar in response to the Jersey Shore town mayor's comments about the behavior of Staten Island women, the Staten Island Advance reports.
The president of the group, which calls itself the Staten Island Good Neighborhood Association, said Belmar Mayor's Ken Pringle's apology for the comments, made in his regular newsletter, is not enough. Instead, John Englebert is calling on Pringle to spend 24 hours visiting what he called "the crown island jewel of New York."

The United States Flag Code states, "The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem of display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning."
The code doesn't specify procedures for flag burning, leaving the "dignified way" open to interpretation. Any procedure which is in good taste and shows no disrespect to the flag is appropriate.
Organizations like the Veterans of Foreign Wars or the Boy and Girl Scouts of America traditionally fold or cut the flag into strips before burning. The American Legion has followed a script for their Ceremony for Disposal of Unserviceable Flags since 1937.
Steve Regeimbal, Quartermaster at Mattydale VFW Post 3146, explained how it's important to make sure the fire is large enough to burn the entire flag. A flag-burning fire should have a roughly 15-minute head start before the ceremony begins. The flag won't blaze quickly unless it sits on a wide bed of hot coals.
Mattydale VFW traditionally folds the flag before burning.
"If you have people there, they stand at attention, recite the Pledge of Allegiance and then stand in silent reflection," said Regeimbal. "After the flag is completely burned and the fire is out, you collect the ashes and bury them."
Folding the flag
1. Raise the flag on the pole or staff or hold it aloft by hand.
2. Call the group to attention, salute and recite the Pledge of Allegiance.
3. The leader may say a few words. For example, "This flag has served its nation well and long. It is now worn to a condition in which it should no longer be used to represent the nation. We pay honor to this flag for the service it has rendered."
4. Fold the flag into a triangle or diamond shape with the field of stars displayed on top.
5. Give the flag to the group leader to place on the fire until it is burned completely.
Cutting the flag
1. Keep the flag off the ground and cut the stars out of the canton.
2. Cut the stripes apart.
3. Place the stripes into the fire.
4. Let the material burn completely.
5. Place the canton into the fire and let it burn completely.
Regeimbal said the flag cutting technique isn't used much anymore. Some see the cutting as disrespectful and it takes a long time to chop them up. That technique doesn't make much sense for an organization which burns hundreds of flags, as the Mattydale VFW does each June for Flag Day. Last year, the post collected between 200-500 flags.
"It took about two and half hours to burn them all," Regeimbal said.
To see a flag burning ceremony for yourself, a Memorial Day Watchfire will take place in the Veterans Memorial Watchfire Park at the New York State Fairgrounds.
The CNY Vietnam Veterans Foundation will host the watchfire to respectfully and properly retire unserviceable American Flags. You can bring your tattered, worn, frayed or faded American Flags for respectful burning on the pyre.
Veterans and non-veterans are invited to gather at the watchfire to honor those who served the nation. Food/drink vendors will be on site.
The watchfire comes from the military tradition following a battle or long march. A large fire would be started so those missing or lost could locate and rejoin their comrades.
Where: Veterans Memorial Watchfire Park at the NYS Fairgrounds (located between Rts. 690, 695 and State Fair Blvd).
When: Sunday, May 25. The watchfire ceremony begins at dusk.
Some flags made of synthetic materials may produce toxic fumes if burned. Though many consider it disrespectful to let a flag touch the ground, some opt to bury a flag instead of burning it. Use your best judgment.

Rocky River pulled off the upset of the high school hockey playoff season on Tuesday as the fourth-seeded Pirates shocked top-ranked St. Ignatius, 3-1, in a district semifinal in Brooklyn.
After River's Bobby Perez opened the scoring in the first period, teammate Eric Sperli added two more goals to knock the state's top-ranked team out of the playoffs sooner than anticipated. It marked the second straight year St. Ignatius suffered an early exit. The Wildcats lost to St. Edward in last year's district final.
While Perez and Sperli were providing the offense Jake Nicholson was solid in goal, making 48 saves. St. Ignatius (29-6-3) was held scoreless until 3:36 remained when Matty Geither got its only goal.
Rocky River (26-7-1) advances to Saturday district championship game against the St. Edward/Holy Name winner.
University School 3, Gilmour 2 Eddie Gable's goal in overtime lifted the second-seeded Preppers over the fifth-seeded Lancers in a district semifinal in Kent.

Bay 75, Holy Name 71 Lawrynce Johnson poured in 44 points for the Green Wave, but the Rockets' foursome of Craig Linder (20 points), Chris Kazanas (17), Ben Chase (15) and Scott Rapps (14) made up for it and led to the upset in a Division II sectional at Westlake. By beating the seventh-seeded Namers, eighth-seeded Bay advances to play sixth-seeded Buckeye on Friday.
Midpark 64, Midview 49 At the Division I sectional at Brecksville-Broadview Heights, Midpark made 22 of 28 free throws and pulled away in the second half. Michael Schuller led the Meteors (16-7) with 24 points and Christian Calton followed with 23.

Alex Robinson led Brookside with 20 points.

Kirtland, seeded sixth, trailed, 31-26, at the half but outscored the fifth-seeded Trojans, 17-7, in the third quarter and maintained the lead with a two-point advantage in the fourth. Senior Mitch Seelinger and sophomore Matthew Finkler scored 14 points each for the Hornets, who advance to play fourth-seeded Columbia in Saturday's sectional final. Senior Drew Fecko led Trinity with 22 points.
North Ridgeville 64, Strongsville 61 In a Division I sectional at Midview, Strongville's Kyle Meehan scored 22 points but that could not overcome the combined 30 points put up by the Rangers' Dennis Millgard (16) and Nate Inal (14). Ridgeville, seeded 10th, will play second-seeded Elyria in a sectional final Saturday.

Joshua Lydell has one more state between him and the completion of his cross-country journey.
Lydell, a 33-year-old U.S. Marine Corps veteran and Frewsburg native, began the Warrior Walk in February to raise support and awareness for the Wounded Warrior Project. From Charleston, S.C., he has continued into New Mexico, just three days from the Arizona border.
Lydell's original plan was to complete his journey by visiting Redwood National Park and end in San Francisco, but his new plan is slightly more dramatic - Lydell will walk alongside members of his Marine Corps unit for the last 10 or 15 miles and end the trip at the Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton in California, where he was stationed.

Pictured is Joshua Lydell, standing alongside his newly-purchased cart, as he crosses the country for the Wounded Warrior Project.
Submitted photo
Because of the change in final destination, the Warrior Walk will likely finish in the middle of August, 500 miles earlier than originally expected.
One of the biggest changes Lydell made to his setup was purchasing a new cart. Although he was fond of the homemade cart built of aluminum and various metal parts, it was simply too heavy to drag over the hilly terrain of certain states.
"Going through the hills of Georgia just about put me in an early grave," Lydell said of the original cart. "I've got 1,000 miles on my new cart and it's great."
According to Lydell, he has also lightened his load considerably by carrying less water and supplies. Originally, he carried an entire cooler filled with six gallons of water, but has now downsized to a two-gallon jug, along with shedding the weight of "amenity" items he carried but rarely used.
"Every pound adds up," he said. "I just didn't need as much as I was carrying with me."
Lydell said that the state of Texas was the most hospitable place he has ever visited. Of the 33 days he was within the state lines, he only slept outside three nights, and spent the rest of the nights in the homes of people he met along his path.
"Every day is kind of a fun experience, and I am looking forward to continuing this journey of discovery," Lydell said. "It's all about mindset. We have a gift - the ability to create ourselves - people can get out there and reinvent themselves. For me, that's my side of this, I wanted to show people that they can do anything."
Lydell has worn out four pairs of shoes so far and raised nearly $8,000.
Although the amount is not quite the $100,000 he originally hoped for, Lydell is still proud of the cause and is looking at a target of $10,000 now.
"It's more money than I could have raised on my own," he said.
To donate to Lydell's walk and support the Wounded Warrior Project, visit support.woundedwarriorproject.org/individual-fundraising/thewarriorwalk.
To contact Lydell, call 969-1131 or email email@example.com.

The Palm Beach Story - DVD
Type: Event | Date: Sunday, Jan 3, 2010As for the opening reels, the principal motivating factor is money. After a deliberately confusing pre-credit sequence (not explained until the film's punch line), Tom Jeffers (Joel McCrea) and Gerry Jeffers (Claudette Colbert) are married. "And so they lived happily ever after," exults a title card, "...or did they?" Well, they didn't. After five years of marriage, Tom hasn't raised a dime with his pie-in-the-sky inventions. Using the sort of logic common to Sturges heroines, Gerry decides that the only way to help her husband is to divorce him, marry a wealthy man, and use the second husband's money to finance Tom's schemes. Borrowing money from a generous self-made business mogul known only as the Wienie King (Robert Dudley), Gerry boards a train to Palm Beach, FL, where all the rich folk go. En route, she is "adopted" by the Ale & Quail Club, a group of perpetually drunken millionaires whose idea of a good time is to shoot their rifles at everything that moves (among the club members are such Sturges regulars as William Demarest, Robert Warwick, Jimmy Conlin, Robert Greig, Jack Norton, and Dewey Robinson). Taking refuge from this rowdy crew, Gerry makes the acquaintance of likeable stuffed shirt John D. Hackensacker III (Rudy Vallee), who happens to be one of the wealthiest men in the Western Hemisphere. While Gerry spoons with Hackensacker in Palm Beach, the confused Tom (remember him?) dallies with Hackensacker's man-crazy sister, Princess Centimillia (Mary Astor). How all this straightens itself out is better seen than described, which is pretty much the case whenever one discusses Sturges' singular work, and The Palm Beach Story is vintage Sturges with one side-splitting sequence after another. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Them! - DVD
Type: Event | Date: Tuesday, Nov 3, 2009A little girl is found wandering in the desert, in a state of complete shock. When she finally revives, she can scream out only one word: "Them!" Any aficionado of 1950s horror films can readily tell you that "Them" are giant ants, a byproduct of the radiation attending the atomic bomb tests of the era. Extremely well organized, these deadly eight-to-twenty-foot mutations converge on the storm drains of Los Angeles in the finale. Forming a united front against the oncoming ant battalions are New Mexico police sergeant James Whitmore, FBI representative James Arness, and father-and-daughter entomologists Edmund Gwenn and Joan Weldon. Since the details of Them are fairly common knowledge today, the mystery-thriller structure of the film's first half tends to drag a bit. Things liven up considerably during the search-and-destroy final reels, as the audience is barraged with convincing special effects and miniature work-not to mention that eerie ant-induced sound effect, so often imitated by subsequent lesser films. Fess Parker appears in a starmaking cameo as a pilot driven to the booby hatch after witnessing the ants in action, while an uncredited Leonard Nimoy is seen pulling info out of IBM machine. Definitely the high point in the careers of director Gordon Douglas and scenarists Ted Sherdeman and George Worthing Yates, Them is also one of the handful of vintage science-fiction thrillers that holds up as well today as it did when first released. (Sidebar: Though filmed in black-and-white, Them is alleged to have been released with a Technicolor opening title, the word THEM! hurtling towards the audience in a vibrant red). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
Halloween - DVD
Type: Event | Date: Tuesday, Oct 6, 2009The Devil's Rejects director Rob Zombie resurrects one of the most notorious slashers in screen history with this re-imagining of the 1978 John Carpenter classic that spawned numerous sequels and countless imitators. As a child, young Michael Myers (Daeg Faerch) committed one of the most unspeakable crimes imaginable. Subsequently locked in an asylum and placed under the care of Dr. Loomis (Malcolm McDowell), the hollow-eyed boy grew into an emotionless man determined to escape back to his hometown of Haddonfield and complete the murderous mission that he began so many years back. These days, the long-abandoned Myers house sits decrepit and overgrown on a peaceful suburban street, its boarded windows and rotting wood a silent testament to the slaughter that has haunted Haddonfield for decades.

The Kiss Cam is a source of entertainment at ballparks across the nation.
On Saturday, fans at Dodgers Stadium saw what can happen when two people don't want to be part of the fun and games. When the camera panned the fans, it focused on a man and woman. When they realized they were on camera, both got uncomfortable. Then the guy got up and ran from his seat.
Turns out he was sitting next to his sister.
They tell their story in the video below.

Miroslav Klose scored twice to move into a tie for second on the all-time World Cup scoring list, and Thomas Mueller and Arne Friedrich added goals to give Germany a resounding 4-0 victory Saturday in the World Cup quarterfinals. As flashbulbs popped, the Germans hugged and high-fived each other before walking around the edge of the field, saluting their fans.
Injured captain Michael Ballack came down to the field, watching from the bench as his teammates celebrated.
"It was absolute class," Germany coach Joachim Loew said.
Hard to argue with that.
Germany will play the winner of Paraguay-Spain in the semifinals Wednesday in Durban. This will be Germany's third straight trip to the semis and its 12th overall -- nobody has more.
It was a surprisingly meek end for the Argentines, whose dominant run had given fans hope this might be a team capable of reaching the final for the first time since 1990, when Diego Maradona led them on the field. Now the coach, Maradona took a slow walk to midfield after the game, hands jammed in his pockets, while several of his players broke down in tears.
"To lose like that is very painful," forward Carlos Tevez said. "We played badly and sometimes when you make mistakes you go home."
Argentina and Germany have had a testy relationship since trading World Cup titles in back-to-back finals 20 years ago, and it's been downright ugly lately.
After Germany eliminated Argentina on penalty kicks four years ago, also in the quarterfinals, the two teams exchanged punches and kicks in a scuffle. A few team officials even got involved in the scrape.
Germany didn't wait for the game to get its digs in this time, with Bastian Schweinsteiger on Wednesday accusing the Argentines of lacking respect for opponents and referees. Captain Philipp Lahm chimed in a day later, essentially calling Argentina a bunch of hotheads.
The trash talking appeared to be carefully orchestrated, intended to ignite Maradona's infamous temper and distract his team. Or, perhaps, to put the refs on notice.
Turns out, Germany didn't need the head games.
Argentina had been one of the tournament's darlings, with Maradona's every move causing a stir and superstar Lionel Messi showing you don't need to score to be sublime. The Argentines rolled into the quarterfinals as one of only two teams to win its first four games -- the Netherlands was the other -- and had been so powerful they never trailed.
No wonder there was a star-studded crowd on hand at Green Point Stadium, with German chancellor Angela Merkel, Mick Jagger, Leonardo DiCaprio and South Africa's own Charlize Theron all spotted in the VIP seats.
But Germany showed that Argentina doesn't have the lock on flair in South Africa.
Its spacing, pace and flat-out stingy defense made the Argentines look out of sorts all afternoon. The Albiceleste didn't get their first shot on goal until the 33rd minute, and any time they appeared on the verge of making something happen, the German defense shut it down.
It was enough to make Maradona clutch his fists in agony, looking as if he was physically pained. The sight of the German offense couldn't have made him any happier.
Germany has now scored four goals in three of its five games, and routed England and Argentina by a combined score of 8-1. Those numbers are better suited for PlayStation than the World Cup.
"They did what we knew they were capable of doing," Tevez said.
Klose, making his 100th appearance for Germany, was simply masterful in the second half. With Germany clinging to a 1-0 lead and unable to get that all-important insurance goal despite several chances in the first half, Klose showed the skill that's made him one of the most prolific players in German history.
In the 68th minute, Lukas Podolski crossed the ball from just beyond the box, and Argentina goalkeeper Sergio Romero and defender Nicolas Burdisso were powerless to stop it as it sliced between them. Klose got control of the ball in front of the goal and effortlessly tapped it into the back of the net for a 2-0 lead.
Klose let out a roar and slid along the goal line as his teammates ran to congratulate him. Merkel stood up and applauded, accepting congratulations from South African president Jacob Zuma.
And Klose wasn't done. In the last minute of regulation, Klose volleyed in a cross from Mesut Oezil from no more 10 yards. Klose did a somersault while Merkle beamed and the German fans kicked off the postgame party.
"What he has already shown is of the very highest level," Loew said. "It is entering history."
The two goals give the 32-year-old Klose four in South Africa, tying him for the tournament lead. He now has 14 in three World Cups, tying him with German great Gerd Mueller for second place on the all-time list. Brazil's Ronaldo holds the World Cup record with 15 goals.
Klose also is second to Mueller on Germany's all-time list with 52 goals. Mueller scored 68.

The 2013 NHL season, shorter than a normal regular season with the infamous lockout, begins on Saturday. Before the pucks drop, we predict how this sprint to the Stanley Cup playoffs will unfold:
1. Canucks; 2. Blackhawks; 3. Kings; 4. Red Wings; 5. Blues; 6. Wild; 7. Coyotes; 8. Predators; 9. Sharks; 10. Stars; 11. Ducks; 12. Flames; 13. Oilers; 14. Avalanche; 15. Blue Jackets
The St. Louis Blues are coming off a breakout season, driven by a stellar goaltending duo of Brian Elliott and Jaroslav Halak. The two combined for a 1.86 goals-against-average. In this shortened, hectic season, the benefit of having two prime goaltenders should help them combat the physical demands.
Detroit's loss of Nicklas Lidstrom is a body blow to the franchise. Though not unexpected, losing one of the greatest players of all time (let alone defensemen) is not easy to take. Niklas Kronwall and the rest of the blueliners will try to make up for Lidstrom's absence.
Teams may be a little better with a man advantage against the Predators this year. They lost Ryan Suter to Minnesota. The defenseman was a stalwart for their penalty kill, a backbone for a team that finished 10th in the league last season when a man down. They still have Shea Weber, but now he'll have a larger burden.
Remember the Blackhawks? They won the Stanley Cup only three years ago with a young nucleus. A pair of 24-year-old stars, Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane, are still here. Marian Hossa is still around too. They've had first-round exits in each of the last two seasons but there's enough talent, with a strong defense, that another long Cup run is a possibility.
Zach Parise and Ryan Suter. Those were the two big free agents of the summer and both landed in Minnesota, quickly revitalizing a team that was on the fringe of the postseason. Dany Heatley remains as well, making for a dangerous top-line with Parise. If the team can come together quickly enough, then the Wild could become an instant threat in the West.
Poor Jarome Iginla. He's still a 30-goal scorer at 35 years old, but the Flames are just atrophying around him. They were the first team out of the playoffs last season and watched the Wild improve over them in the division, while Edmonton continues to ripen.
The Canucks, a first-round embarrassment last season, are still the best in the division. They haven't quite figured out the whole Roberto Luongo thing (namely why he's still here after an entire offseason, plus lockout, of trade rumors) but the Sedin twins are still potent and their defensemen are strong. It may be a team in flux, but it's a very good team in flux.
Watch out for the Oilers. They're young and talented and could quietly threaten. They've had three straight No. 1 overall picks, Taylor Hall and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins are coming along well and now they add Nail Yakupov, the talented Russian 19-year-old. Even if the Oilers aren't good, they'll be worth watching.
Here reside the Los Angeles Kings — the unlikeliest Stanley Cup champions in recent history. They return with all the key pieces in place, but those players also only got a No. 8 seed last season. Now comes the crucial question of whether that title run all just happened in a vacuum.
The Coyotes made a run to the Western Conference finals with a sterling goalie in Mike Smith and aged veterans. One of those vets, Ray Whitney, is gone to Dallas after a 77-point season at 39 years old. Now Phoenix will have to regroup without their leading scorer while another year older. At least they have Smith.
The Ducks, while finishing last in the division in 2011-12, had two of the top goal scorers on the power play in Corey Perry and Teemu Selanne. Anaheim's prospects look little better, but at least they'll be potent on the power play and have the chance to marvel at Selanne, who will return as the team's leading scorer at 42 years old.
Jaromir Jagr goes west. Well, not quite all the way to the Pacific Ocean, but blame the NHL's shoddy groupings. The Czech star is now with the Stars, continuing on as a 40-year-old coming off his first NHL season in three years. He'll pair nicely with Whitney in the league's most potent rendition of geezers on ice.

Much has been made recently by media and pundits about Chelsea's lack of depth in the striker role, with Fernando Torres being the side's only recognised striker.
So, much of Chelsea's possible January transfer dealings have been focused on who would be the right striker to sign as cover or possible competition for Torres.
But Chelsea may also be in the market for a central midfielder.
With Raul Meireles having packed his bags and Michael Essien on loan with his "Daddy" at Real Madrid, Chelsea are left quite limited in midfield options.
Frank Lampard is getting on in years, so a long-term replacement could be a wise idea, so that somebody is integrated in the team by the time Lampard hangs up his boots.
John Obi Mikel does his job in a defensive midfield role, but he needs somebody alongside him that can add to attacking moves more often.
So who could Chelsea look at bringing in to beef up the midfield in the next transfer window?

Firefighters have rescued two window washers stuck near the top of a New York City skyscraper after a scaffold collapse.
Fire department officials say the rescue operation took place at the Hearst Building in midtown Manhattan, with workers cutting open windows on the 44th floor to try to pull the men in.
Slideshow: see photos from inside the building
The men were trapped in the scaffolding outside the 45th floor, hanging from the side of the building about 600 feet above the ground.
The men were in harnesses. The dangling metal scaffold appears to have buckled in the middle, into an elongated V shape. The men are on either side, communicating with firefighters on the roof of the 46-story building.

Grandma's Ice Box Cake
Linda BONWILL
Every Sunday we would go to Grandma Mary's house for some pasta and treats. We never knew what we would get until we arrived. The one thing we did know was that it "had" to be homemade because it came from Grandma's kitchen. We would all get especially excited when she would take out this Ice Box Cake from the refrigerator, or as she would call it (Ice Box). What little kid or even big kid wouldn't enjoy the creaminess of chocolate and vanilla pudding layered between graham cracker crust? I wish Grandma was here so I can tell her how much she had inspired me to cook over the years.

"So You Think You Can Dance," the television show, must be doing its job a little too well, because "So You Think You Can Dance," the tour, is a little disappointing.
That's not to say the road show, which stopped at Newark's Prudential Center Thursday night and hits Trenton's Sovereign Bank Arena tonight, wasn't entertaining, even spectacular at times.
It's just that, after five seasons of the Fox summer hit, we've come to expect surprises — wallflower (and eventual winner) Jeanine Mason and underrated Jason Glover blossoming as lovers warring over an oh-so-symbolic heart-shaped locket in the killer contemporary number choreographed by former SYTYCD finalist Travis Wall, or normally sunny Kayla Radomski succumbing to a devilish Kupono Aweau in Mia Michaels' devastating piece about addiction.
But nearly the entire show is a step-by-step reenactment of the season's top numbers, powered by the personable 12 finalists (producers were compelled to add street dancer Phillip Chbeeb for a much-appreciated dose of eye-popping, well, popping, along with his partner Caitlin Kinney). I should say nearly the entire dance portion of the evening — half of the nearly three-hour running time was devoted to canned, shticky intros (which doubled as opportunities to model the latest in SYTYCD commemorative T-shirts), replays of the dancers' "journeys," and other videos of season five highlights and lowlights.
We did appreciate a running gag about Mason and Chbeeb's especially cheesy Russian folk dance routine: Several times throughout the show, the couple, in full folk costume, would sneak onstage and try to perform their ill-fated number, only to be stopped in their tracks by the other dancers. Toward the end of the show, they emerged onto a darkened stage with their ghetto blaster and break into their routine. Then they're joined by the rest of the troupe. After a few more stultifying moments, the men rip off their shirts and the girls doff their full skirts and launch themselves into a high-energy, acrobatic and ultimately redemptive folk routine.
Watching the dancers live was at times illuminating: The audience wasn't slave to whatever angle worked best for the camera, which on television becomes particularly jarring with the group numbers. And those indeed benefitted from the live format, particularly the closing routine from the first half of the show, the hip-hop-influenced Latin ballroom number set to "I Know You Want Me," complete with water-splashed dancers.
Some of the more subtle partnered pieces fell a little flat, like Mason and Chbeeb's don't-go-to-bed-"Mad" hip-hop. Their lyrical movements got lost in the big arena. The last thing I wanted to do was take my eyes off the stage so I could watch the dancers on the giant video screen. That's what my den is for. And my couch is free.
The extremely diverse crowd — a mop-topped 4-year-old who fell asleep on his mother's shoulder, a handful of father-and-daughter duos, teenagers, couples on dates, seniors and scads of single ladies — lapped up the season's standout routines, including the aforementioned Mason-Glover contemporary (never mind that the heart-shaped locket went flying off the chain at one point), the spaghetti-limbed Ade Obayomi and firecracker Janette Manrara's literally mesmerizing "Love Sex Magic" funk routine, and Obayomi and Melissa Sandvig's balletic contemporary about breast cancer.
Also earning well-deserved standing ovations was Chbeeb's unholy popping and contemporary dancer (and runner-up) Brandon Bryant's potent, muscular solo — or it might have been for his super-tiny, equally potent black briefs.

Making your own baby food
Posted on 23. Jan, 2011 by Robert Needlman MD in Infant, Preschooler, Stages of Childhood
This lets you control the ingredients and the preparation method, and save money. You can use fresh, organically grown foods. It's easier than you might think.
You can make a large batch of any healthy food you choose, then puree it to a consistency that your baby currently likes. You can add moisture, if you like, with water, expressed breast milk, or formula. Freeze serving-size portions in ice cube trays or on cookie sheets and then stored in plastic freezer bags until they're used. Foods for children under a year should not be seasoned.
You can reheat individual portions in the small compartments of a cheap egg-poaching pan, double-boiler, or microwave oven. Be sure to stir the food well and test the temperature — especially if it's been heated in a microwave — before feeding it to your baby. Microwaves create hot-spots in food, so one spoonful can be cool, and the next one scalding.
Once your child begins eating table foods, you may want to cut down on the salt or sugar. The earliest experiences with food set a child's idea of what tastes good, so it's important to get your child started on healthy foods (this is another reason for avoiding processed foods, which are often very high in salt.) A small, handheld food grinder will come in handy for sharing grown-up food with your baby.

Looking for something new and exciting to try? On July 20 from 9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. come take part in Springfield's first Dragon Boat Races on the Connecticut River. Dragon Boat Racing is great fun for anyone, young or old. This local event will attract primarily co-ed teams from corporations, public service groups, small businesses, high schools, colleges and universities, as well as friends who join forces and experience the enjoyment of the sport! Form your own team and you're bound to create memories you will never forget. Here are 5 Great reasons to join up…
1. Splash your paddles to keep those evil spirits away as you travel down the Springfield riverfront. According to the Springfield Dragon Boat website, more than 2,500 years ago, a man named Qu Yuan was exiled from Ancient China, the land that he loved, and in turn committed suicide in the Miluo River in a final form of protest. During an attempt to save him, the locals took to the river in their fishing boats, splashing their paddles to keep the water demons and evil spirits away. Reconnect with history as you take part in this exciting experience.
2. There's never been something like this happening at the Riverfront! So come join your community and be a part of an unforgettable experience as Springfield hosts its first ever Dragon Boat Races from High Five Dragon Boat, LLC all the way from Tampa, FL.
3. Are you a survivor of breast cancer? We commend you for everything you've endured during a difficult journey. Now, take in an experience with other survivors just like you on a fun and exciting journey down the river. Each team that consists of all Breast Cancer Survivors will experience Springfield's Dragon Boat Races at a discounted price.
4. Organize a corporate team building exercise! According to Mark Downing, the Director of Corporate Safety at TECO Energy, "It's better than any video, professional speaker, or novelty out there." It is important to be able to work together and learn about one another in order to accomplish any assignment thrown your way without "clinking paddles;" a term that has become a permanent part of TECO Energy's vocabulary which means being a little "out of sync," in the workplace. So what are you waiting for? Gather a group of 20 co-workers and accomplish the task of rowing a dragon boat!
5. Don't feel like paddling? You're in luck! Each boat has a spot for a drummer. The drummer has one of the most important roles during the entire race. Each beat on the drum is supposed to be in unison with the stroke of the paddlers, motivating their team to reach the finish line.
Thanks to GSCVB Intern Leah McPherson for writing this blog!

Richard H. Smith "was Gloucester County College," says Bob McErlane.
"He was one of those people you'll never forget," says Kristina Fernald.
Smith, 83, who retired in 2004 as assistant to the president for public relations and executive director of the GCC Foundation, died Wednesday, leaving an indelible mark throughout South Jersey as a mass media professional and an all-around good guy.
"He was the college's first line of defense involving any type of press," says McErlane, who was vice president of the board of trustees during part of Smith's tenure and is current Foundation treasurer. "Dick was the go-to guy, and he was always personable."
"He was one of the most memorable people I've ever met," says Fernald, Foundation president. "I don't think I've ever known anyone able to combine being professional, possessing incredible knowledge and being eloquent in such a natural way. He was such a master."
Says Foundation member Mary Ann Homan, "My husband Mike and I have so many wonderful memories of Dick, who built our scholarship program to great heights. He will be greatly missed, but the work he did for the Foundation will live on forever."
"Dick left me in great shape with the Foundation," says GCC development officer Ray Page, the college's liaison to the school's fund-raising arm. "And he was one of the nicest people I've ever met."
Smith, from Medford, was in the U.S. Navy from 1945-48, and was personal secretary to Admiral John Towers, commander-in-chief of the Pacific fleet. He befriended author John Marquand and became his personal secretary post-war while Marquand was writing "Point of No Return." A 1953 Temple journalism school graduate, Smith co-founded and was editor of Suburban Newspaper Group. He eventually started his own PR agency and was publicist for Garden State Race Track.
In a media world in which newspaper journalists are sometimes distrusting of PR people, Smith was uniquely popular in newsrooms and believable.
"When Dick got on the phone to pitch a story, you knew it was something worth pursuing," says Times editor John Barna. "When asked a question, he gave a straight-up answer and never tried to steer a reporter away by dismissing the validity of their inquiry."
"He made everyone feel they were so special," Fernald says. "He was unique, just as warm as he could be."
Fernald was pleased that Smith attended a recent board meeting at which he was presented a proclamation for his service. "He was so grateful," she said.
And five years ago, with a large crowd attending, the GCC trustees approved renaming its PR and marketing office the Richard H. Smith Center for Development and Public Relations.
"Dick Smith's name will live on," McErlane says. "He loved the school. He was an institution himself."

Gov. Robert Bentley departed for Europe Saturday on an industry recruiting tour.
Bentley is leading a delegation of about 50 Alabamians today through Tuesday at the Paris Air Show, where they'll meet with top aerospace executives and rub elbows at a series of social events. Bentley will also visit Germany later this week to tour the headquarters of Mercedes-Benz.
Bentley said he was reluctant to take the trip — his first overseas — at a time when state budgets are under tremendous financial strain. But he said it was important to help bring good-paying jobs to Alabama.
"It is a working trip," he told the Press-Register during an interview Thursday. "I actually dread it, in some ways. But if it will help us create jobs, I'm willing to go. That is my primary goal."
Bentley, a Tuscaloosa Republican, will join Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour and industry officials today at a reception held on board a yacht in the Seine River. The invitation-only event is hosted by the Aerospace Alliance, a multi-state marketing group.
On Monday, he'll join Mobile officials for a briefing at the air show with the European Aeronautic Defence and Space Co., the parent company of Airbus. EADS had proposed to build a $600 million, 1,500-worker aircraft assembly plant in Mobile, but that project collapsed in February when EADS lost its bid for the U.S. Air Force tanker contract to rival Boeing Co.
Robert Bentley to promote Brookley Aeroplex in Europe
EADS and several of its major suppliers are continuing to eye the city's Brookley Aeroplex as a potential manufacturing site.
"We're still talking," Bentley said. "I believe they still want a U.S. presence, but they've got some internal struggles to work through. The important thing we want to show them is that we still want them and are ready to support them. I'll do everything I can to convince them to come."
Bentley said he is continuing to reserve a package of cash and other tax incentives for EADS in Mobile, though he acknowledged that his administration is facing pressure to use the money for projects elsewhere in Alabama.
"I've left those incentives on the table to give them the opportunity to examine their options," he said. "There obviously is a time cutoff at some point, but we haven't given them any deadlines. As long as there's a possibility to get them here, we'll keep everything in place."Bentley said Alabama has a prized asset in Brookley, a former Air Force base with ready access to highways, rail lines and the Port of Mobile.
"It is probably the best industrial site in the Southeast, and maybe the whole country," he said. "EADS knows that as well than anyone. But it isn't just the site. They love Mobile and the people there, and we love them back."
Bentley, who took office in January, laid out an economic development strategy that put a priority on assisting the state's small and existing businesses. He said Thursday that the overseas trip did not represent a departure from that approach.
"If we're going to have a healthy economy, we need both small business and large manufacturers," he said. "We need that diversity. That's why the recession hit us harder than other parts of the nation. So we really want to recruit a variety of industries to Alabama, and aerospace is one that we really want to pursue."
A spokesman and salesman for Alabama
Bentley said he's looking forward to visiting Mercedes officials in Stuttgart, Germany, on Wednesday. The German automaker employs about 2,800 at its assembly plant in Tuscaloosa County.
"They're looking at an expansion project," he said. "But primarily we're going to meet with some of their executives and tour the plant there. They're one of the mainstays of our state economy."
Bentley, a former dermatologist and state legislator, said he'll be joined on the trip by his wife, First Lady Dianne Bentley. He said his only previous trip outside the U.S. was to attend a medical conference in Canada.
"My job is to be a spokesman and a salesman for our state," he said. "A lot of recruitment is just personal relationships, and this trip will help us build those. I'm a people person. I'll enjoy that part of it."
Bentley, who vowed not to take a salary as governor until the state reaches full employment, said he didn't plan anything extravagant in Paris.
"Everybody knows how frugal I am," he said. "I'd rather be working at home in Alabama. If I was taking a vacation, I'd probably go down to the Gulf. The way I look at it is, this is just another day's work for me. It'll just be in a different location."

PORTAGE. MI – Both Portage officials and the developers of a proposed restaurant and coffee house say they are puzzled why the state would take away a liquor license that the blues and jazz club had been counting on to establish the business.
The Portage City Council on Tuesday was to consider whether to rescind its conditional approval of a census liquor license granted last year to the proposed Repertoire Coffee House and Theater Inc. at 412 W. Centre Ave, next door to the Portage Central Fire Station.
But then the council learned from the owners that the Michigan Liquor Control Commission had instead approved the license for the new Courtyard by Marriott at the Trade Centre.
The council and administration said it has no idea why the state would take away the free census liquor license Portage had planned to give to Repertoire. Ted Duckett, who with his wife Diana, have proposed the unique $2.5 million restaurant and coffee house, said he was not only surprised but miffed.
"Recently, things came to light that turns out it was not so much that we ran out of time but we found out last week that the license we thought we had we did not have," Duckett told the council.
"There are a lot of questions, and all we are asking for is fairness. There is a cloud hanging over our head. We're concerned you were not even notified there was an underbelly process taking place. We don't have a problem competing if the playing field is level."
The council said it was caught unaware that Marriott had been given the license. In April, the council approved a liquor license for the more than $5 million hotel that is expected to open sometime this fall. But that license, they said, was not the census liquor license the city was granted in 2010 because of increases in its population.
"It was not our intention to take that away from you when we took that action in April," said Councilman Terry Urban. "I am as concerned as you are."
Urban speculated that because Repertoire had extensions on getting the business going after it had received the first approval in June 2012, the MLCC may have decided to grant the license to someone else. The census license, he said, belongs to the state, not the city, but Portage has traditionally been allowed to choose who gets the special license.
"We had no knowledge of this until you told us," Urban said.
Both City Manager Maurice Evans and Community Development Director Vicki Georgeau confirmed what the Ducketts had learned, and agreed they had no idea the MLCC had taken that action.
"We're awaiting something from the Liquor Control Commission in writing that explains what transpired," Georgeau said, adding that there is no appeal allowed under MLCC regulations by the city.
"The census license is gone," Evans said. "It is not available."
The council had expected to act on a recommendation from the administration to rescind its approval of the liquor license for Repertoire, citing concerns that the applicant had not secured funding for the project, obtained no permits for construction and lacked progress in getting the business going.
Duckett said he could understand the city's concern that the restaurant and coffee shop had not progressed more quickly. But, he said, it was going to be ready for development until the liquor license snafu.
"All the pieces fell in place the last week and a half and then the state said it was a done deal and we are to look elsewhere for the license," Duckett said. "Our investors are concerned. We're looking for answers.
Portage Mayor Pete Strazdas agreed.
"I have to agree with my colleagues on the council that this is a slap in the face to many people," Strazdas said. "The council went through a process, we found an excellent applicant with an excellent product for this city. We all want to learn about what happened and why it happened."

Quick and efficient replacement of my Ford Ka's clutch. Collected and returned to my house be t day as promised, great service and great price, thanks Steve
Fast and reliable service would highly recommend.
This garage fully deserves a 5 star rating. They did a great job on my car to fit a new clutch and Dual Mass Flywheel. They went the extra mile to fix my EGR valve which was totally compacted with carbon. It would have been an easy fix for the garage to say a new one was required but they worked relentlessly to clean it and put it back. I am very impressed and would not hesitate to recommend them to others. They even pick up and return the car ( something they have been doing for the last 35 years). Amazing service
Excellent service and price. I will use them again.
Did a a very good job, would highly recommend!
The work was carried out on the date and time promised for exactly the price quoted. The communication was excellent through out and having the work undertaken at my place of work was especially convenient. Ryan was polite, helpful and completed the job to a high standard. I would definitely recommend Howarth Autos and I plan to use them for any future work required.
Punctual, great communication from start to finish, diagnosis was correct saving me lots of dosh. Ryan phoned to let me know he was caught up with a job and would be a little later than planned, this was a welcome relief after being let down by a number of mechanics in my local area and shows a professional attitude towards business.
Straight to the point, full major service done quickly and accurately. Car feels 10 times better to drive. Would recommend to anyone.
All fine, would use again
After an appaling experience with a business who serviced my Octavia VRS I am delighted to say Stuart has restored my faith in independant garages. Stuart is professional, honest and very polite. He honoured the quote and my car was ready exactly when he said it would be and even complimented me on the way my car drives. Well worth the 25 mile trip and I will be going back in the future :)
Superb, used this guy for the first time but will be certainly using him again. He knows audi's. 100% satisfaction. Audi service but not Audi prices.
Absolutely. Stuart very good, showed me the old bits and stamped the service book. Also gave great info regarding electrical services. Will definetley use again. Good communication and good price, very professional.

Excellent service, my car is much better now! Thank you
Great no hassle service, the car was even ready before the suggested time and I was given use of the courtesy car so wasn't without at all. Great stuff will definitely be returning in the future. Thank you.
Used John Atherton Autos twice now and don't think I would go a anywhere else in the future. They fixed my car up after it failed MOT and the end price was far cheaper than what I had actually been quoted so obviously trustworthy and good at what they do.
Excellent service no hidden extras very competitive in price . Professional & friendly service would recommend this garage .
Good job!

The French Quarter Management District, a state agency, will hold a public meeting today to discuss a proposed city ordinance that would regulate the placement of loudspeakers in bars and other commercial establishments in the French Quarter and Central Business District. The public is welcome to attend and offer comments.
The meeting will begin at 1 p.m. in the North Ballroom of the Royal Sonesta Hotel, 300 Bourbon St.
Councilwoman Kristin Gisleson Palmer drafted the proposed law in an effort to force proprietors to turn down the volume on the often-deafening music that spills out of bars, music clubs and other establishments, especially on Bourbon Street and some other parts of the French Quarter.
The ordinance would require that loudspeakers cannot be pointed in the direction of any exterior door or window in French Quarter and CBD businesses. Any establishments selling alcoholic beverages must place speakers at least 10 feet from any door or window. Businesses not selling alcohol must keep speakers at least 20 feet from doors or windows. The distance rules would not apply if all doors and windows are kept closed.
Violators would be subject to fines and temporary closings. The stiffest penalty -- a $500 fine and a two-day closure, including a Friday -- would go to businesses that violate the ordinance four times within a 12-month period.
In 2011, the board of the French Quarter Management District voted unanimously to support a loudspeaker placement ordinance proposed by the Bourbon Business Alliance, an organization of Bourbon Street business owners. However, some of the specifications in Palmer's proposal differ from those in the alliance's ordinance.
Palmer's proposed ordinance is also due to be discussed at a meeting next week of the council's Sanitation and Environmental Committee. The full council could vote on it April 5.

BRIMFIELD — Town Treasurer Kirsten L. Weldon, who has admitted to making mistakes as an elected official, plans to resign April 3, according to a letter received by the Brimfield Board of Selectmen.
The letter does not give a reason for her departure, but last month Weldon came under fire for alleged mismanagement of town funds. Independent auditor Thomas J. Scanlon Jr., who found multiple discrepancies in receipts handled by Weldon, publicly faulted her for mismanaging the town's payroll account and placing Brimfield in a precarious financial position.
"No offense to Kirsten, but I just feel that she stopped doing her job," Scanlon, a managing partner at South Deerfield's Scanlon and Associates, told selectmen at a Feb. 4 meeting.
"I'm not denying that I've made mistakes and that I've had a very bad year. There's a lot of reasons for that," Weldon said at the meeting.
Weldon, treasurer since 2003, did not return phone and email messages Tuesday. She is also clerk of the town's Highway Department and executive assistant to the Planning Board, but she has no immediate plans to resign either of those positions, according to town officials.
Weldon earns about $9,200 and $2,700 for the highway and planning jobs, respectively. In 2011, the most recent year for which payroll data were available, Weldon earned more than $52,000. That includes about $38,000 as treasurer and $14,300 for the clerk jobs. The latter figure includes about $2,400 in overtime from the Highway Department formerly headed by her father, Robert L. Hanna, who retired last year.
On Monday, selectmen accepted Weldon's resignation and voted to appoint Andrea S. Beaudry, the town's assistant treasurer, as acting treasurer. Beaudry will serve out the remainder of Weldon's three-year term, which expires in June 2015.
"They did have the right to do it," Town Clerk Robert Sullivan said of selectmen's decision to appoint Beaudry as treasurer, rather than hold a special election to fill the post.
Brimfield officials sought legal advice from Michele E. Randazzo, an attorney with the Boston-based law firm Kopelman & Paige, who affirmed the legality of the appointment.
Weldon sent separate March 19 resignation letters to Sullivan and the Board of Selectmen, notifying them of her intent to step down April 3. The one-sentence letter to Sullivan was a simple notification, while the much longer letter to selectmen includes what Weldon considers to be accomplishments of her tenure as treasurer.
"The role certainly has evolved since I first became treasurer in June 2003, from a strictly treasurer function to one with additional responsibilities," she told the board.
At the Feb. 4 meeting, Scanlon said Weldon's mismanagement led to late deposits, bounced checks and unbalanced accounts, among numerous other issues that jeopardized the town's fiscal health. Weldon publicly acknowledged her shortcomings before the board and vowed to continue working with Scanlon to address the issues.
Weldon's main duties as treasurer included administering employee benefits and overseeing payroll and all town funds.
Scanlon has previously said his town audit will be ready later this spring. To date, however, he has found problems ranging from delayed payments to town retirement accounts to overpayments to former town employees, among other discrepancies.
Brimfield's cash flow issues forced town officials to borrow $738,000 to close a fiscal gap and set its property tax rate for fiscal 2013. If the town had failed to set a tax rate before Dec. 31, tax bills would have been delayed, leading to substantial revenue shortfalls. The town mails the bills on a quarterly basis.
The audit being conducted by Scanlon is Brimfield's first since the June 2011 tornado, which prompted town officials to skip that year's audit. Scanlon said he expects to give selectmen a progress report in April before issuing his written report.

Regent Law Moot Court
February 11-12, 2011
Moot Court Board Hosts Its Tenth National Constitutional Law Competition
William and Mary came away as the tournament champions for Regent Law's Constitutional Law Moot Court Competition. The Moot Court Board hosted it's 10th annual competition on February 11th and 12th in Virginia Beach. The problem this year was related to current events and focused on the constitutionality of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act under the Commerce Clause. Sixteen teams from twelve schools competed in a simulated federal circuit court environment arguing before prominent local and national judges and attorneys.
The Competition culminated in its traditional awards banquet. Candice Hooper, a Regent Law alumnus and former Regent Moot Court Board member, presented a keynote address about her work as a Virginia Assistant Attorney General for the Medicaid Fraud Control Unit's Civil Investigations Squad. Speaking from experience, Mrs. Hooper urged the competitors not to be afraid of facing a challenge for fear of rejection. Awards were given for Best Oralist, Best Brief, and Competition Champion. The final round ended with a 5-4 decision in favor of William and Mary. Liberty University took second place.

VINELAND — Residents with pets that are older than seven months, or have a set of permanent teeth, should have their cats or dogs licensed with the city on an annual basis, according to the Vineland Health Department.
The due date for obtaining a pet license is on March 31.
"Most pet owners believe that their companion is unlikely to get lost," said Dale Jones, health director. "Unfortunately, hundreds of pet owners are wrong every year. Having a current license displayed is his or her ticket home."
The licensing fee for spayed and neutered pets cost $10 a year per animal. For pets not spayed or neutered, the fee is $18 a year.
Residents that miss the March 31 deadline will have to pay a larger fee, with licenses costing $13 and $21, respectively.
A proof of rabies vaccination, valid through Oct. 31, is also required. Animals that do not have this proof of vaccination must get inoculated against rabies before licensing.
With proper licensing, animals that are lost will be less likely to end up at the local Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals shelter.
"Please do your part in helping to keep your companions safe and by your side," Jones said.
For more information about pet licensing, contact the Vineland Department of Licenses and Inspection by calling 856-794-4113 or by visiting www.vinelandcity.org to download a license application.

Cornerstone Evangelical Free-Church members are gathering Thursday to make snowflakes for the school reopening in Sandy Hook, Conn.
Sandy Hook parent-volunteers are planning to welcome the children back into a new building by creating a winter wonderland with the entire school decorated with as many unique snowflakes as possible.
"In the face of incomprehensible suffering and loss, we feel this is one way we can love our neighbors in another part of the country," said Josh Wildasin, the church's administrative director. "As Christians we believe we're called to serve as Jesus Christ's hands and feet. This is one way we can do that. We're hoping that by demonstrating our love in a practical way, survivors of this tragedy will know that we care, but more importantly that God cares and He is mobilizing His church to respond— to love, pray for, and stand with them."
The snowflake-making event is being held at Cornerstone's downtown campus at 34 S. 2nd Street, Easton, at 1 p.m.
