Put bacon, eggs, and whole fruit on the table. Every day. They'll get used to it.
Aargh! I am so frustrated. I am living in the kitchen, spending so much time trying to make kid-friendly primal foods, and my kids like NONE of it. I am especially struggling with breakfast food. One of my 4 children is just a bread fanatic. I have tried paleo bread, but no go. I made blueberry muffins and they were great, but the kids did not want to eat them. Any ideas? I refuse to attempt to make primal Lucky Charms.
P.S. I do recognize that it is my own fault (and my husband's) for creating such picky eaters. We fell prey to the modern American convenience mentality.

They'll get hungry eventually. YOU decide what and when they eat, THEY decided *if* and how much. Nobody will starve if they skip a meal or a snack by choice.
Stop trying to replace bread and flour-based foods with primalized versions. They will never measure up.
Instead, start replacing those foods with tasty meat, veggies, root veggies, fruit, nuts, full-fat dairy, etc. There are really good foods out there that they/you probably never have considered as a meal or snack because the default choice was bread/cereal based. CW breakfast foods are closer to desserts than any other meal. Feed them leftover dinner or lunch for breakfast.
I just downloaded a free paleo kids recipe e-book from amazon. Haven't looked at it yet. Eat Like a Dinosaur is a popular paleo kid recipe book. Also check out Everyday Paleo and Nom Nom Paleo to see what these bloggers feed their kids.
*My obligatory intro
There are no cheat days. There are days when you eat primal and days you don't. As soon as you label a day a cheat day, you're on a diet. Don't be on a diet. ~~ Fernaldo
DAINTY CAN KISS MY PRIMAL BACKSIDE. ~~ Crabcakes
ANyway, I have 6 kids (ages 8,6,5,3,1, and newborn) We just switched to primal about 3 months ago. As for the Paleo baked goods - maybe try a few more. Some are really quite terrible, but I personally have found a few that are fabulous (well actually I tweaked a few recipes and made them even better - after trying about 100 recipes I found I could tweak pretty well). Anyway, I have a bread recipe that actually works in the toaster and is great with eggs (and you can make it in the bread machine too). We do that with eggs for breakfast 2-3 days a week. We have a couple "sweet" bread recipes that we like - one is just a spice bread and another is a pumpkin bread. And we have a couple muffin recipes and a pancake recipe that we do for breakfasts too. All of this came about through a LOT of trial and error though. We tend to favor recipes that call for about 1/2 coconut flour and 1/2 tapioca flour.
For dinner I have discovered something wonderful. I take a bunch of meat (any meat really, a roast, steaks, pork chops, etc) and I put it in the slow cooker in the morning and add salt and onion powder. It cooks all day and then I serve it with cut up fruit and some kind of veggie dish at night. THe veggie can be as simple as streamed broccoli with butter and salt, or something more involved. SOmetimes just a spinach salad with cheese sprinkled on it. Oh, a favorite quick meal here is ground beef with salsa added after it's all cooked up. The kids put cheese on theirs and stir it all in. Another good choice is bun less burgers. Oh, and a dirty little secret. Yep, I let my kids put organic ketchup on their meat. I don't let them drench their meat in ketchup, but I have decided that a couple tablespoons of organic ketchup at a few meals a week is NOT going to kill them. ;-)
In the beginning I spent a lot of time trying to recreate meals what were once our old favorites. Really, it's better just to find new meals that we love instead of trying to re-create a primal version of something we once loved.
If you want any of my recipes that I use for our baked stuff, just let me know, and I'll try and get a few typed up for you.
Child 1: leftover boiled potatoes, refried (the adults had this too, plus bacon and eggs)
Child 2: Oatmeal
Child 3: Cornflakes/Ricies
It's better to lose the battle and win the war.
Hungry kids will eat. It's just harder for them if their tastes have to be retrained from appreciating high sugar meals.
Disclaimer: I eat 'meat and vegetables' ala Primal, although I don't agree with the carb curve. I like Perfect Health Diet and WAPF Lactofermentation a lot.

TQP: I find for me that nutrition is much more important than what I do in the gym.
bloodorchid is always right
I like the idea of putting a spread of bacon and fruit at the table to let them choose what they want. You could also scramble eggs with some of their favorite things to eat, like if they like certain veggies or whatever, and have that on the table as well.
I find also, that if I get my kids involved with the cooking process they are MUCH more likely to at least try what we've made. And its a lot of fun for all of us.
Thirdly, and maybe this sounds mean. If my kids refuse to eat whats given to them. They don't get to eat. They kick up a huge fuss, but I calmly explain to them about all the children in the world who are very unlucky and don't get to eat at all. And that seems to help a bit. And if it doesn't, if I am consistent and don't give in, they will eat eventually. I often set aside the food they don't eat and when they ask later for food, I serve that food to them.
I will give you a recipe for easy pancakes since you asked for ideas...
Have you tried making banana pancakes for them yet? Its so easy all you need is banana's and eggs. Just mash 1 banana in with 2 eggs, and cook with some butter - voila ( make a bit smaller for easier cooking ) You could even make a berry syrup with it. I just toss in some frozen blueberries, or strawberries, add about a teaspoon of vanilla extract in the saucepan with the berries, medium heat until the juices start to run a bit, add a dash of cinnamon, and some honey and serve on top! Its so yummy ( specially with strawberries, who doesn't like strawberry/banana right?

There will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears. And love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears, get over your hill and see what you'll find there, with grace in your heart and flowers in your hair.
I'm trying to convert my kids to primal too, so I understand what you are going through. I don't agree with the attitude to put it in front of them & they'll eat eventually because my kids have been failure to thrive/underweight kids who doctors wanted to feed pedisure! That said what is working for us is a gradual process, allowing the kids to have a small side dish of non-primal foods after eating more primal foods. For breakfast they have fruit and eggs first. Lunches are still mostly SAD, but both kids chose to eat fruit and salad with their PB&J at camp today. Dinner is our most primal meal - tonight we had burgers without buns although kids were allowed a tortilla, broccoli, green beans, and avocado. Both kids are becoming more aware of ingredients and are starting to ask for better foods - for instance my DD asked for plain oatmeal with just cinnamon, a big improvement over sweetened cereal. For my kids who are unusually sensitive to new textures & tastes, going slow and letting them have the chance to make good decisions seems to be working for us.
Thank you so much for such a quick response, all! I love hearing what everyone has to say and knowing that most kids come around. I agree that I probably need to stop trying so hard to make primal versions of their old favorites.
Funny thing -- I never make homemade popsicles, but today I made a variation of the greensicles found on this page -- » Greensicles. The main ingredient was SPINACH! The 5-year-old had one and asked for a second. Unbelievable.
I should note too that one of my children has Down's, so getting him to understand why there is no bread in the house is pretty hard. I think I will try the "variety of food on the table" approach with him.
Thanks, again, everyone. I sure would love to hear more. If nothing else, these responses have boosted my resolve to keep at it.
My dd was underweight too. I realise now that I began primalising her food before I even knew what primal was. In other words I was trying to make sure that every bite she ate was full of as much nutrition as possible since it was likely that she would only have very few bites. So not just a piece of toast but french toast dipped in egg and fried in butter, or toast with butter melted in and peanut butter piled on top. I withheld the crackers and sweets because I knew if she had even the slightest amount of junk she would lose her appetite for real food. Now I've just gone even further - banana/egg pancakes, meat and roasted veges leftovers, frittatas etc. Her "worst" breakfast would be ricies with milk and banana, I can live with that. She is 12 now and thriving, barely any fat on her but fit, strong and muscular, definitely no longer underweight. Much better build than her two sisters who I probably half starved in their childhoods. Persevere, it's worth it.

Pennsylvania Treasurer Rob McCord says he's made up his mind on whether to sign off on a taxpayer-financed bond issue being sought by outgoing Gov. Ed Rendell, but he won't announce that decision until later today.
It comes after several weeks of lobbying by Rendell for a $1 billion bond issue that he says is crucial to keep money flowing to public improvement projects that are under contract or construction, such as bridges, prisons and hospitals, while interest rates are favorable.
But McCord questions whether rates might drop in January, and state Auditor General Jack Wagner has refused to sign off unless Rendell agrees to pare back the amount.
Wagner says he's concerned about the state's growing debt payments in the face of a projected $4 billion-plus deficit.

Va. man accused of helping smuggle Somalis into U.S. Washington Examiner hat tip Ann
Authorities are searching for 270 Somalis believed to have entered the U.S. illegally with the help of a Virginia man who admitted contacts with an Islamic terrorist group.
An Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent said his agency had yet to locate any of the suspected illegal immigrants.
According to an affidavit filed in Alexandria's federal court, Anthony Joseph Tracy told authorities that he came in contact with the Somali terrorist organization Al-Shabaab, which announced an alliance with al Qaeda earlier this year.
ICE Agent Thomas Eyre testified during a hearing that authorities are "concerned" about the 35-year-old's dealings with the group.
In an e-mail, Tracy reportedly wrote, "i helped alot of somalis and most are good but there are some who are bad and i leave them to ALLAH," the affidavit said.
He has been held without bail. Tracy's attorney, Geremy Kamens, declined to comment for this story.
Eyre testified that authorities had not yet tracked down any of the Somalis whom Tracy allegedly helped travel to the U.S. The affidavit says Tracy's e-mails, combined with information on Facebook, show that the Somalis have spread across the country and are living in New York, North Carolina, Tennessee, Minnesota and Arizona

Nathan Barron was sitting in the woods near his home on a deer hunting expedition when nature called and he left his spot to answer – leaving his gun leaning against a tree. He returned a few minutes later and saw that the weapon had vanished, although it didn't take him long to find it – it was clenched between the teeth of a beaver who was hauling it down to a nearby stream. Nathan decided not to pursue the armed robber, but admits he might try a sneak attack at a later date, saying, "I was mad, but I started laughing because it was funny. I'm trying to get my gun back. If there are beaver marks on it, I'm going to hang it on the wall of my garage."
An Arizona man who was busted fleeing the scene of a house break-in had a hell of an answer when asked what he was doing there – saying that he'd been talked into the act by the devil! The ironically named Angel Meza told officers that Satan set him up by planting the gun he was carrying in his pocket and making him take the loot he was about to run off with. After blaming the devil, Angel also granted that he'd recently taken drugs. Satan's all "Why do I always get blamed for everything, man?"
In Wisconsin several women started arguing over money near a poultry display inside a market. One of them was so distraught she whipped out a can of pepper spray! One of the other women smacked her with a frozen Turkey! In all, six women ended up wrestling around a floor covered with turkey, yogurt and spilled bacon. No one was seriously injured, but a 62-year-old man had had enough when he got smacked in the head with a container of yogurt and called 911 putting an end to the early Turkey Day celebration.

Very little participation this week's Ann Arbor News Team of the Week poll so far. Only 215 votes have been cast, compared to the more than 4,000 votes last week that made the Huron girls water polo team the Team of the Week.
The Saline girls soccer team continues to lead the poll, but with only 114 total votes, the Ypsilanti boys and girls track and field team, Chelsea softball team, Pioneer boys track and field team or Saline boys golf team could still easily overtake the Hornets. Fans can vote up to once an hour until our poll closes Friday, April 18 at 11 a.m. so the game is far from over.
The poll is to determine what will be Team of the Week April 21-25.
The Team of the Week receives a ton of coverage online and in print (see image on left), including game stories and features on what makes the team tick. The Huron baseball team got the treatment last week and Huron water polo will have a similar package rolled out online Friday and in Sunday's print edition.
Vote early and vote often and get your team in the Team of the Week action. Want your team involved in next week's voting? Let us know in the comments below.

Polar vortex got you down? Maybe some lemony coconut muffins will help bring a little sunshine into your otherwise frigid day. These gluten-free coconut muffins are lightly sweet with just the right amount of lemon to brighten them up. The coconut flavor comes from ground unsweetened coconut, coconut oil, and light coconut milk. Lemon juice and a little pure lemon extract add the brightness. They are delicious warm from the oven, or at room temperature. We like them as is, or with a bit of blueberry jam. Lemon curd would also be delicious!
The recipe relies on using gluten free all-purpose flour. I typically make mine from scratch, but there are very good package gf flour mixes available that work just as well too. If you do want to make a mix from scratch, I recommend this one over all others I've tried.
These are naturally vegan as well. Feel free to substitute butter for the coconut oil, or use buttermilk in place of the coconut milk and lemon juice. For non-GF muffins, substitute regular all-purpose flour for the gluten free flour.
Lemony Gluten Free Coconut Muffins
To grind the coconut, measure out about 3/4 cup of unsweetened, shredded coconut and pulse in a blender or food processor until finely chopped.
2 cup gluten free all-purpose flour* (or regular all-purpose flour)
1/2 cup ground unsweetened coconut
1/2 cup organic evaporated cane juice
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
14 ounce can light coconut milk
1/4 cup organic extra virgin coconut oil, melted
1 Tablespoon fresh squeezed lemon juice
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon pure lemon extract
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place muffin papers into the 12 wells of a standard muffin tin, or grease very well.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour, coconut, cane juice, baking powder, baking soda, and sea salt.
3. In a smaller bowl, whisk together coconut milk, lemon juice, vanilla and lemon extracts. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the coconut milk mixture into the well. Stir together with a large silicone spatula or wooden spoon.
4. Add the melted coconut oil and mix until combined.
5. Divide the batter evenly between the 12 wells of the muffin pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the tops are nicely browned and the muffins spring back when pressed in the center.
6. Let muffins cool in pan for a bit before serving.
Yield: 12 muffins
*Note: If the gluten free flour blend does not contain xanthan or guar gum, add 1/4 teaspoon to the dry ingredients before mixing.

Hale opened the restaurant in 1972, following the footsteps of his parents, who opened and sold breakfast places. He added a lounge later the same decade.
Among the oldest family-owned restaurants in Hillsboro, Hale's survived four decades of economic upheaval and surrounding development. Built near an empty field, it now neighbors a sprawling shopping complex with a Red Robin restaurant and a Safeway grocery store.
Steve Ceccanti, a close friend and owner of Nonna Emilia in Aloha, said Hale was well regarded among Oregon restaurateurs.
"He's someone I could call for advice, and he'd give me the straight shot," Ceccanti said.
In 1980 and 1981, Hale was president of the now-defunct Oregon Food Service Executives, a group of about 100 restaurant owners.
Before he went down the dining path, Hale focused on music, playing the standalone bass. But he flunked out of music school and joined the Army National Guard, where he played tuba for the marching band. He was also fond of small instruments: the ukulele, finger piano and harmonica.
After studying to be a radio announcer, Hale turned down an offer to work for a station in Pasadena, Calif., to stay in Oregon.
Hale's Restaurant has since become a fixture in Hillsboro. Several generations of families have come through the doors, along with football coaches for annual meetings and parishioners at St. Matthew Catholic Church after Sunday Mass. Hillsboro Chamber of Commerce President Deanna Palm, who worked at Hale's as a teen, said Hale "exemplified a leader."
With 38 workers, the restaurant is also known for its low turnover. Multiple employees have worked more than 20 years. Some even left for more than a decade and came back. Workers said they loved Hale, even though his obsession with detail bordered on tyrannical at times.
Assistant manager Steve Kraemer, 42, got his first job as a dishwasher at Hale's when he was 16 and considered Hale a second father.
"He had such a love for the restaurant," Kraemer said. "He did it until the day he died."
That included showing all the cooks how to properly cook an omelet when he was 70. And coming in daily to make sure the lids on soup buckets were placed correctly.
"Even though Frank has passed, nothing here is going to change," said his wife, Deanna Hale, who now owns the restaurant.
Mike Furrer, who was assistant superintendent of the Hillsboro School District from 1994 to 2005, regularly had breakfast with union officials at Hale's. Over the years, Frank Hale named menu items after local high schools: the Spartan Sandwich, Monte Glencoe, Century Salad and Liberty Sundae.
"Frank was very connected with community, but he was silent about it," Furrer said. "He wasn't a boisterous 'Look at me!' type of guy."
You wouldn't have found Frank at council meetings or community groups. He spent most of his free time playing golf and owned 85 putters and 21 sets of golf clubs. Deanna Hale says he bought two new sets of clubs when he fell ill last year and talked about going back out on courses when he recovered.
Frank Hale is survived by three children from his first marriage, Brian Hale, Blake Hale and Rhonda Long and four grandchildren. He had four stepsons, Darren Sene, David Sene, Daniel Sene, Dustin Sene, with Deanna. The celebration of his life is planned for 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday at the restaurant, 2755 S.E. Tualatin Valley Hwy.

There is no better way to understand and give context to what is happening in the present than by talking with older people. I have often, amid the current economic downturn, recalled my late grandmother's accounts of the Great Depression. It puts our current troubles in context, and it eases my fears and worries to recall her looking back on it decades later.
Today, The Star-Ledger uses that same wonderful lense to look at the election of Barack Obama. Reporter Mark Mueller and videographer John O'Boyle sat down with four older African Americans to talk about where they've been, and where the country is now.

Zach Redmond, Ferris State University's standout defenseman and team captain, has signed with the Atlanta Thrashers of the National Hockey League as announced on Tuesday (April 5).
Redmond's journey to the NHL is scheduled to begin on Friday (April 8) as he will take his talents to the Windy City to play for the Chicago Wolves of the American Hockey League. The Wolves are the top
affiliate of the Thrashers. Redmond is not unfamiliar to the Thrashers as he was drafted by the organization in the seventh round (184th
overall) of the 2008 NHL Entry Draft. He attended the organization's Prospects Camp last summer.
The 6-foot-2 and 205-pound Redmond struggled with injury at the end of his senior season, but ended his final year in the Ferris crimson and gold as a 2010-11 All-Central Collegiate Hockey Association First-Team selection. He totaled a 20 points on seven goals with 13 assists through 26 games.
Ferris, under the guidance of head coach Bob Daniels, finished with a record of 18-16-5 overall and placed fifth in the CCHA at 12-12-4-3 with 43 points.

To the editor:
I strongly recommend Kevin Sullivan to serve as Township Committeeman. He is very qualified to serve our residents. He has been a township resident for over 20 years. His daughter attends the township high school. He has coached at St. Patrick's School and in the township recreation program and he and his wife are active in St. Patrick's church.
I have worked with Kevin on the Planning Board and he has always been fair, recognizing each resident's property rights, but can be tough on developers. He is willing to commit the time required to serve on the Township Committee and also spend the time needed to work on the many town committees. His business and financial background is important, especially if the township can maintain the fiscal responsibility to try to keep the town taxes at the zero increase as we have done for the last two years.
I know Kevin will add positive thinking to the committee and has a fine working understanding of the needs and business of the township. I would be honored to serve with him.

This 'Breaking Bad' musical totally rules: Watch
Walter White and the Amazing Blue Crystal Meth
Do you have an hour to kill? (You do? Oh man, let's trade days.) Then you should probably spend it watching this wonderful "Breaking Bad" musical called "Walter White and the Amazing Blue Crystal Meth." Which is, of course, a play on "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat," but with fewer Jews and a few more amphetamines.
The play will take you through the first 5 seasons of "Breaking Bad," which means it doubles as a nice little refresher. Also? How totally adorable is the kid who plays Jesse Pinkman?

Be careful what you wish for. You just may get it. That is advice we bet some officials in the oil and gas industries wish they had heard and heeded before they suggested it would be a good thing for the federal government to take more responsibility over gas drilling.
Recently, President Obama signed an executive order that could lead to more federal rules on gas drilling. Obama said it is important to take advantage of natural gas resources, but he added that air and water quality must be safeguarded.
Of course. Virtually every state in which gas drilling has increased dramatically has strict rules to protect the air, water and soil. But that has some in the industry concerned, because the regulatory environment is a patchwork of rules that differ from state to state.
Industry groups welcomed Obama's order, and with it the prospect standardized federal rules would supplant state requirements. In addition, the industry is concerned about overlapping and sometimes contradictory federal regulations.
But what Obama did last week was to establish a "working group" to coordinate federal oversight of the natural gas industry. It will be headed by Heather Zichal, deputy assistant to the president for energy and climate change.
Zichal is no friend of fossil fuels. She once worked with the Sierra Club and was an adviser on energy and environmental matters to Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass. Earlier this year, she was one of four White House officials asked to testify to Congress about the fiasco involving $535 million in lost federal loan guarantees to the Solyndra solar energy company. Zichal was aware of Solyndra's problems as early as October 2010, while the White House still was touting the company's "green" energy work.
Zichal's position on natural gas is not known - but her record as a booster of "renewables" is not encouraging.
A reasonable federal regulatory framework for the natural gas industry indeed would be a good thing. But the Obama administration's record on fossil fuels is one of holding the industry back, not encouraging it to meet the nation's energy needs.

The first obvious evidence of Equine Metabolic Syndrome likely is weight gain. But the dangers of this condition go far beyond pudginess. The animal with EMS is at risk for laminitis (also known as founder), which disrupts blood flow to the laminae structures in the hoof that secure the coffin bone. When laminitis strikes, the bone can rotate and in severe cases, penetrate the sole.
While EMS is a hot topic in the veterinary community these days, many horse owners may never have heard of it. The Rutgers Equine Science Center aims to change that on Tuesday night in New Brunswick, with a lecture, open to the public, by one of the foremost authorities in the field.
Raymond Geor, a veterinarian and PhD who chairs the Large Animal Clinical Sciences Department at the Michigan State University College of Veterinary Medicine, is an author and expert on EMS who will speak during "An Evening of Celebration and Science."
He will outline symptoms, discuss ramifications and present a mangement plan to help prevent and control EMS. Registration, which is $30 for adults and $15 for students, can be made through tomorrow at www.esc.rutgers.edu. The event, which runs from 6-9 p.m. in the Campus Center on the G.H. Cook campus, and includes dinner, is sponsored by the Mid-Atlantic Equine Medical Center.
Why is EMS coming to the forefront at this time?
"In the equine community," Geor said during an interview, "things do cycle a little, so there is a tendency to have a disease du jour, but I think it (EMS) is more common now than it used to be. Why? That's the $64 million question.
"There may be other things in the environment, we don't really know. But when we look at the general horse population, the prevalence of overweight and obesity is higher now that it used to be," he continued.
"It appears a fair proportion of the horse population, just as the human and dog and cat population, is carrying `too much condition,' to put it politely."
One of the problems with diagnosing EMS is differentiating it from Pituitary Pars Intermedia Dysfunction, commonly -- and imprecisely -- called equine Cushing's Disease. It involves a benign pituitary tumor that is more prevalent in older horses. A sign of the problem is the animals' failure to shed out their winter hair coats when the weather turns warm.
Horses that are 5 years old, or even younger, however, can be victims of EMS. As Geor noted, animals with PPID are at a higher risk for developing laminitis and that applies to those affected by EMS as well. Insulin resistance (Geor prefers the term insulin disregulation) can go with either condition.
He notes, though, "a severly obese animal may or may not be EMS, but could tend to be insulin-resistant. Laminitis can develop for a number of reasons, some of which we don't fully understand. Not all PPID horses seem to have problems with their insulin system.
Those that do are among the ones that appear to be at highest risk for laminitis. As is the case with many disease conditions, this not a completely black and white situation." That's what generates confusion.
It's important to be aware of the possibility of EMS because, as Geor puts it, "one of the goals with veterinary care is to ID those animals early and put them on the appropriate treatment and management, so they don't get to that more advanced stage."
PPID horses may drop weight, yet develop fat pads around their body. Horses with EMS, though, tend to have cresty necks as part of their overweight look.
Owners should feed differently for the two conditions. PPID horses may need more feed to improve their weight, while EMS horses need less and often are known as "easy keepers," though every horse that doesn't require a lot of groceries is not EMS positive, of course. And it's worth noting that a fat animal that does not have EMS could still be insulin-resistant.
So why are some horses prone to EMS?
"The general assumption is that it's sort of an interaction between their genetic makeup and their environment, where one of the key environmental variables will be the way in which we feed them. If we over-feed them relative to their high metabolic efficiency, they gain weight," said Geor. He noted that certain breeds, such as Welsh ponies, Arabians, Morgans and Paso Finos, are more susceptible to EMS. There also are bloodlines that can go that way.
He explained some breeds have their origins in "very arid environments...sparsely populated in terms of feed stuff. They had to walk a long distance and the feed they found was nowhere near as rich as what we provide them now. The caloric content and protein/carbohydrate profile likely are very different compared to grasses on the prarie.
It's a question now of being able to pinpoint the actual genetic risk factors that are associated with prevalence of EMS."
The likelihood, said Geor, is that "if there are genetic predispositions, it is multi-factorial, so it would be more than one gene."
Compare that with HYPP, an inherited muscular condition that affects quarter horses.
"It's a very specific single defect, so it's much, much easier to sort out from a genetic physiology standpoint," said Geor.
So how do you diagnose EMS, and is there a way to determine whether a horse might have it while doing a pre-purchase exam?
An insulin concentration test is recommended, but if there is any suspicion of problems -- even though an animal may not exhibit overt symptons of laminitis -- he suggests radiographing the animal's hooves to see what's going on in there.
Medication also can help. While Pergolide is prescribed for PPID horses, Metformin, used as a treatment for human diabetics, may work with EMS, and giving supplemental thyroid can help with weight-loss resistance.
Geor emphasizes that "even though an animal has perhaps got some predispositions in its genetic makeup, providing it is fed and managed appropriately, it may not manifest with a problem. It could be latent. We think mostly it only becomes evident when we over-feed. There's probably a range of severity in animals that way, but that's our belief.
Most horses don't need any grain or grain concentrate, they just need a good basic forage nutrition-based feeding problem. The complication there is that if they're in a plentiful pasture, rich in its nutrient composition, that can be a problem as well.
"If you look at horses in their natural situation, they'll gain weight in the summer and lose it in the winter," the professor said.
"There's a yearly cycle that's perfectly normal for them in a way, and they're adapted to it. One of the challenges for us is we like to see the horse look the same year-round. It's interesting as to what we do by breaking that cycle per se may do longer term."
In managing EMS, "you need to consider the volume of work (he suggests exercise as an important way to manage the condition, if the horse is sound); what is available to the horse other than the feeds you are directly providing and to watch body condition very closely. It is by far the best tool we have to assess the adequacy of the feeding program."
Many people don't have sufficient background to monitor body condition, so Geor advises utilizing the resources of resources such as the Equine Science Center and agricultural extension agencies, both "a fountain of knowledge available for them to call upon."
Guilene Mallard, who runs Good Times Farm in Freehold, has had experience with a number of EMS horses, several of which are by an Arabian stallion who passed along the condition to his offspring.
One was her National Show Horse, License to Thrill, a 15-year-old who is half-Arabian. When she started seeing the signs, a cresty neck and fat pads behind, she knew it was time to cut back on his feed.
"From a barn owner's standpoint, that's one of hardest things to do," she commented.
"We as humans strive to be thin, but we want our animals to be fat. It's terribly unhealthy. Everyone thinks it's a sign of great care when a horse is fat." In fact, it's the opposite.
She noted that EMS can be deceptive.
"It's not like a horse who all of a sudden has a founder episode. With the metabolic stuff, it's a slow, gradual rotation, you can have.
"They don't look quite right, you X-ray them and go, `Holy smoke, how did this horse get a rotation?' He never had a noticeable founder episode."
So she keeps Thriller thin, and he continues in low-level dressage competition.
"He's still a good-looking horse," she said, "though I hate the fact I can see an outline of ribs, but I know this is better than a foundered horse and I'm determined he's not going to go in that direction."
ON THE RAIL -- Next Sunday's 10 a.m. program on equestrian health at the Somerset County Park Commission's Lord Stirling Stable in Basking Ridge will focus on common riding injuries and how to help avoid them.
Naomi Betesh, a doctor who is board certified in pain management, physical medicine and rehabilitation, is also a rider. The program will reinforce proper training habits and posture while riding and doing barn chores.

BALDWYN – The Baldwyn Main Street Players will present a play in its new home next week.
The theater company will present Agatha Christie's "And Then There Were None" at the new Claude Gentry Theatre in downtown Baldwyn next week.
For director Debby Gibbs, the play fits the intimate venue.
"It's truly a 'whodunit,'" Gibbs said. "As the characters die off, the number of suspects go up."
The mystery begins as eight guests are invited for a weekend by an unknown host.
A voice accuses everyone, even the house servants, of murder, and each of the guests are killed off as suspicions rise as to who the killer is.
"There's a twist ending that will really take everybody back," Gibbs said.
Gibbs' cast includes Bentley Burns, who took a theater class under Gibbs at Tupelo High School and is returning to the stage with "And Then There Were None."
Burns plays William Blore.
"I come in with two different stories, so I'm suspicious from the start," he said. "The play makes everybody look so guilty that you have to look more innocent."
Kenny Cook is known for his film work, both in locally made movies and in Hollywood films, but he's taking a break from movies for the play. He stars as Sir Lawrence Wargrave.
"I'm a judge, and I kind of take charge," he said of his character. "I get to look down on folks a little, and try to do a British accent."
He said the story's mysteries and the new venue will make for an exciting weekend in Baldwyn.
"It gives us a chance to pay homage to this old theater," he said.
What: Baldwyn Main Street Players present "And Then There Were None"
When: 7 p.m., Sept. 19, 21, 23, 26, 28; 2 p.m., Sept. 22
Where: Claude Gentry Theatre, Baldwyn
Cost: $12

Lawyers are expected to give closing arguments this afternoon in the case of a man accused of possessing nearly 80 grams of cocaine found in his parents' Summit Township home.
Mark Truman's trial began Monday.
He was wearing boxer shorts and watching an adult video in a basement living room area when Jackson police raided the home at 3033 Tulsa Drive on Aug. 13, 2010.
Police found a rock of cocaine and a bag of powder cocaine and more than $10,000 in the basement. The drugs were in a bedroom near Truman, 48.
Daniel Reid, Truman's lawyer, contends Truman did not live in the house and suggests the drugs belonged to someone else.
Truman told Jackson Police Officer Craid Edmondson he was watching the house while his parents were away at a family reunion.
He told the officer he lived in or near Lansing, but would not give Edmondson the address.
The vehicle Truman was driving, many adult videos belonging to Truman, and some mail addressed to Truman all were in the basement area, Edmondson said. A broken-down van outside the house was registered to Truman at the Tulsa Drive address, Edmondson said.
There were clothes in the basement, but Edmondson could not say whether they belonged to Truman. He did not take any of them as evidence and had no pictures of them to present.
Reid suggested they might have belonged to Marlin Davis, Truman's brother-in-law, who now is in jail for a marijuana conviction.
An investigation into Davis, which involved a series of searches around Jackson County, led police to 3033 Tulsa Drive, an address linked to Davis' wife, who is Truman's sister.
What police found there, however, was different than what officers found while doing the other searches, Edmondson said.
The bedroom was a mess, Jackson Officer Nat Gross testified Monday.
Everything Davis has is "immaculate," Edmondson said. He owned many pairs of Gucci sunglasses, and had creases in his jeans, Edmondson said. A search of his home revealed nearly $100,000 in cash and jewelry, at least some of it with designer labels, worth thousands more. "This is somebody who gets pedicures," Edmondson said.
At his sentencing last week, Davis wore an impressive brown suit. He pleaded guilty to possession with intent to deliver marijuana, and Circuit Judge Thomas Wilson sentenced him on Thursday to 330 days in jail and four years probation.

4 - VIOLENCE, a $600,000 buy, should add to Pletcher's dominating stats with 2-year-olds at the Spa. Should like 7 furlongs more than short sprint with pedigree to go long. TITLETOWN FIVE tired in slop; also figures better at 7 panels. DEMOGRAPHIC TREND shortens up, goes turf-to-dirt and will get the distance.
5 - POST PATTERN (BEST BET), bred for turf stardom, was blocked as the 2-1 favorite. POTUS can outfinish SONNYANDPALLY again.
6 - KATHY'S KITTEN disliked soft turf. Takes off on firm ground. YANKEE KITTEN was bumped and went wide from Post 12. POWERFUL INSTINCT couldn't shake loose from calvary charge at the top of the stretch. Drops back to price where he almost held on.

When he arrived at Rutgers last season, Myles Mack did one thing the same as he had done for nearly his entire basketball life. When he would go to the foul line to shoot free-throws, the freshman kept the same routine: Three bounces, a flip in his hands, a pause and then shoot. He had never been a poor free-throw shooter, so the desire to break the habit never occurred to him.
That was, until he took a closer look at his numbers from the charity stripe after the end of the season.
Good, yes. Spectacular? Hardly.
"I just looked at it a lot in the offseason," Mack said this week. "And I changed my routine."
Last season, Mack made just 78 percent of his 80 free-throw attempts on the season. Again, not a poor percentage — he was just outside of the top-200 in the country last season — but the guard knew he was leaving a lot of points on the line each game. So, he made the bold decision to ditch his old pre-shot routine at the free-throw line and create a new one from scratch.
One dribble. Then shoot.
"I just wanted to stay focused at the rim," Mack said. "I think that's just (helped) me keep focused at the rim more, so I don't have to be thinking about all this other stuff and dribbling and flipping the ball and stuff like that."
Switching a routine at the free-throw line is never an easy decision to make — especially for a self-professed shooter, who's had it since he first remembered playing organized basketball. But Mack knew something had to change, so he spent all offseason working on the rhythm and timing of the one-dribble, no-flip foul shot. So far, the results have been better than even he could've imagined.
Entering Wednesday night's game against Louisville, Mack is shooting 93.8 percent from the free-throw line, having made 45-of-48. While his makes at the line aren't high enough to qualify him for the national leaders — players need to make a minimum of 2 1/2 free-throws per game, while playing in 75 percent of their team's games — his percentage is undeniable. The national leader in free-throw percentage is Davidson's Nik Cochran, at 94 percent.
Two percentage points ahead of what Mack is shooting.
"That really took my concentration away," Mack said of his old habits. "I just came up with that on my own, basically. I worked on it all offseason. That routine, the one dribble and I was good at it — I wasn't really missing — so I just kept it going during the season, no matter what. I'm going to stick with that the rest of my career."
Now that he has a new weapon in his offensive arsenal, Mack knows that the next step is upping his productivity at the free-throw line. He's only getting to the line on average, 2.4 times this season over 20 games. Conversely, his teammate — Eli Carter — is the highest-ranking Big East player qualifying for the national free-throw percentage rate.
Carter is averaging more than double Mack's attempts, at 4.6 per game.
It's those extra opportunities which Mack feels can help take his game to another level in the future. And now that he finally feels truly comfortable — and productive — at the free-throw line, he wants to make sure that he capitalizes on every chance he can get.
"I don't focus on anything else," he said. "Just me and the rim. That's it when I'm shooting free-throws."

FanMatch is a part of the KenPom site, which uses a formula to not only determine which games will be pleasurable to watch on a certain day, but also how a game is forecasted to be determined.
While Louisville head coach Rick Pitino doesn't mind forward Chane Behanan taking more mid-range jumpers away from the basket, he'd still prefer the sophomore be closer to the hoop. "It's not a problem, he's good from that area," Pitino told the Louisville Courier-Journal this week. "But teams take that mid-range game away. ... It all depends on who you're playing."
In order to get his team back on its earlier-season successes, Pitino has instituted a little ... motivation. He's brought back the treadmill technique -- mess up and you hit the treadmill for a minute-long dead sprint. "If you missed a block out, treadmill," freshman Montrezl Harrell told Eric Crawford of WDRB.com. "If you didn't crash the boards, treadmill. There were guys running to the treadmill all over the place." Well see if it leads to results.

Since Felix Mendelssohn was one of the greatest musical child prodigies of all time and since his music is infused with so much youthful vigor, it is difficult to believe that he would be 200 years old this year.
The Skaneateles Festival program selections this week celebrate this magnificent composer's birthday by inviting some of his musical friends to the party: Bach, Handel, Haydn, Mozart and Gade. Mendelssohn studied and revered the great composers who had preceded him, and they provided some of his best sources of inspiration. So we'll hear some of their outstanding works that were also favorites of Mendelssohn.
» Complete Skaneateles Festival schedule.
You'll hear Mozart's great "Jupiter" Symphony, which Mendelssohn often conducted in concert; Bach's Chromatic Fantasy and Fugue, a keyboard piece Mendelssohn enjoyed performing in recital; a Haydn string quartet that Mendelssohn admired; and a song by Handel, who wrote oratorios that Mendelssohn edited, published and championed. We'll also listen to a work by one of his gifted students and friends, the relatively unknown yet hugely talented Niels Gade.
Of course we'll hear good sampling of Mendelssohn's own music, which combines mature elegance with infectious youthful ardor.
Given the nature of Mendelssohn's music, and significance of his prodigious accomplishments as a young musician, we're particularly pleased to welcome one of America's most exciting young string quartets, the Parker Quartet, and one of this country's most talented pianists, Adam Neiman, to anchor the chamber music performances on Thursday and Friday. You'll also get to enjoy the talents of tenor Robert Swensen and bassist James Vandemark, both Eastman School of Music faculty members, and violists Melissa Matson and Michael Larco, from the Rochester Philharmonic.
On Saturday evening, the week closes with a performance of Mendelssohn's brilliant First Piano Concerto by teenage phenomenon Conrad Tao, a young pianist who will re-create the virtuosity and elan that Mendelssohn reportedly displayed at the piano at a young age. Not everyone is remembered so well at 200; don't miss this party.
David Ying and Elinor Freer are co-artistic directors of the Skaneateles Festival.

Players with little or no varsity experience at quarterback helped their team to victory over the weekend.
No. 1 on the list has got to be junior Dan Kowal of DePaul. Kowal, who played wide receiver and safety, was thrown into the pressure cooker making his initial varsity start at quarterback against Group 4 powerhouse Seton Hall Prep. He had played quarterback on the freshman team and two games last season on the jayvee level.
Although Kowal said he felt nervous at the start, he threw for 149 yards and two touchdowns, including the game-winning, 25-yard scoring pass to tight end Dan Foesel in overtime in DePaul's 34-28 victory. Kowal also rushed for 101 yards.
Kowal replaced starter Dan Farley who fractured his thumb against St. Joseph of Montvale on Sept. 11. Farley punted against SHP.
``No, I'm not surprised Kowal did so well,'' DePaul coach John McKenna said. ``He's a great athlete and I thought he could do it. But right now, he's playing behind another good quarterback (Farley). Kowal makes good decisions like the couple of times he threw the ball out of bounds when his receivers were covered. And, if he gets pressured, he'll take the run if he has to.''
Sophomore Dan Hollis, of Hawthorne, who started the last two games at quarterback last season and paced his team in tackles with 83 as a linebacker, turned in a solid and efficient performance in Hawthorne's 25-6 triumph over Garfield on Saturday.
Hollis completed 6-of-7 aerials for 174 yards and three TDs all coming in the first half.
``I have a lot of confidence in Ryan,'' Hawthorne coach John Passero said. ``He has a lot on his shoulders because we run the triple option, so he has to make split-second decisions.''
Lakeland has jumped to a 2-0 start and last Friday night received a gutsy performance from Steve Wilken, making his second varsity start at quarterback.
Wilken clicked on 14 of 22 passes for 204 yards and two scores, including one with 5:30 remaining, when Lakeland downed Hanover Park, 21-14, last Friday. He played quarterback for the jayvees in 2008.
``I'm somewhat surprised with what Steve has done, especially the moves he made running,'' coach Tom McCormack said. ``He's patient and he executes. He doesn't really have to win games for us, but we don't want him to lose them.
``He's a quiet kid but loud on the field and we want him to control the huddle. He's managed his last two games very well.''
Tied at 14-14 versus Hanover Park with time winding down, Wilken tossed a verticle pass to wide receiver Jon Allard who took it 40 yards to the house for the winning score.
Wilken helped seal the victory in Lakeland's final drive when he picked up nine yards off a scramble and a flip to fullback Jake McDonald and had a 6-yard run both for first downs on third down maneuvers.
NORTH JERSEY NOTES: Believe it... or not. Ferris High running back Williams Peters scored six touchdowns and his team LOST to Nutley, 50-46... Runner Mike Castles scored three touchdowns and quarterback Pete Savastano added two when Wayne Valley shocked Montclair, No. 17 in The Star-Ledger Top 20, at the time, 37-12... Joel Tejeda rushed for four TDs as Lyndhurst opened with a 28-6 victory over Weehawken... Lincoln quarterback Lamar McKnight threw for 202 yards and four TDs in his team's 42-7 triumph over Kearny... Hawthorne wideout Dom Giannella hauled in four passes, three for TDs, for 152 yards in his team's 25-6 victory over Garfield.
BIG GAME: Undefeated Bergen Catholic, No. 3, will play host to No. 9 St. Peter's Prep (0-1), Saturday in Oradell.

There are just four weeks until WrestleMania XXX, and time is running out for the show to garner as much attention and publicity as possible.
Each and every Raw show is becoming more important by the week, and this week was certainly a pivotal show.
We had plenty of WrestleMania developments, including the confirmation of a couple of big matches.
There were some good matches throughout and some solid promo work, too. One man stole the night, though (more on him later).
So, let's take a look at the biggest things we can take away from the Mar. 10 edition of Raw.

Several IHOP locations are re-opening after seven of them in Ohio and Indiana were raided early Tuesday morning by the FBI, Homeland Security, Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency and local police.
Hmmmmmmm. What on earth were Mr. Elkafrawi, Kamil Madi, and Maazen Kadir, among others, up to? Money laundering and terror = jihad.

Federal agents searched six IHOP restaurants in northwest Ohio and another in Indiana and executed search warrants on two homes and a storage locker Tuesday as part of an investigation that involves Homeland Security and the Internal Revenue Service.
The nearly simultaneous raids at the popular eateries, including locations in West Toledo and Sylvania, Springfield, and Perrysburg townships, began just after 6 a.m., interrupting the busy breakfast rush at the restaurants.
Some employees arrived to begin their shifts and were greeted by federal agents showing badges and toting guns.
Scott Wilson, a spokesman at the FBI's Cleveland office, confirmed agents searched the restaurants as well as two area homes and a lock storage facility. Agent Wilson refused to give details about the warrants, which were sealed in court.
"There were quite a few folks involved in this," Mr. Wilson said.
Federal agents from the FBI, Internal Revenue Service, and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (the investigative arm of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security), and local law enforcement officers executed the raids.
There were no arrests and authorities did not detain anyone in the searches. No charges have been filed.
The affected restaurants were at 4045 Talmadge Rd., 6920 West Central Ave., 10151 Fremont Pike; 6535 Airport Hwy., as well as locations in Findlay, Lima, and Evansville, Ind.
According to public records and the local Better Business Bureau Web site, Tarek Elkafrawi, also known as "Terry Elk"; Kamil Madi; and Maazen Kadir have either ownership or management roles in the seven franchises.An unidentified man loads the trunk of an SUV with boxes taken from an IHOP on Talmadge Road. The Blade/Amy E. Voigt
With the exception of the Lima restaurant, Mr. Elkafrawi, who lives in Wood County's Middleton Township, is listed as the president of all the affected IHOPs and Mr. Kadir is identified as manager of the West Central Avenue and Airport Highway locations. The Lima location is owned by TE & KM, Inc., which is a limited liability company owned by Mr. Elkafrawi.
Wood County Sheriff Mark Wasylyshyn confirmed Tuesday night that one of the homes where a search warrant was executed was at Mr. Elkafrawi's Middleton Township residence.
Mr. Elkafrawi and his wife, Kelly Ann Elkafrawi, were not at home Tuesday afternoon and evening and did not respond to a message left seeking comment.
Dry cleaning could be seen hanging from the front door, and a door bolt could be seen lying on the ground in front of the house.
Lisa Wojciechowski, a neighbor, said she believed Mr. Elkafrawi is in poor health. She said his wife is friendly.
She said she doesn't see her neighbors much and believes they are kept busy traveling to their various restaurants.
Mr. Madi also has ties to the Toledo area. Mr. Madi, who once lived in Sylvania Township, and his family moved to Jordan about a year ago, according to a woman who now lives in the home.
A man who answered the phone at the Airport Highway IHOP confirmed that Mr. Kadir is an "area manager" of IHOP locations, but was out of town and would not be back until next Thursday.
"No one will want to help you with that," he said when asked if anyone else would comment.
Patrick Lenow, executive director of corporate communications for DineEquity, the parent company of IHOP restaurants and Applebees, said the seven locations are owned by a single franchisee. He refused to divulge the name of the franchise holder or its principals.
Mr. Lenow said he didn't know the reason for the investigation, but was told by authorities it is not related to terrorism.
He said that three of the affected restaurants had reopened by Tuesday afternoon — those in the immediate Toledo area were operating except the Wood County restaurant — and said the others will do so soon after the investigators returned control of operations to the owners.
According to the IHOP Web site, the minimum financial requirements for a franchisee is $1.5 million net worth and $500,000 in liquid assets.Donna Logan throws her arms in disgust when Toledo Police turn her away from the IHOP Restaurant on Talmadge as federal agents conduct an investigation.

"We were informed [Tuesday] by one of our franchisees about the events at his restaurants in [Ohio] and [Indiana]," the statement said . "We are working to gather the facts and have been in touch with the federal authorities, although we have not been briefed on the matter. We are cooperating fully with the authorities as we seek to gain an understanding of this situation."

Riedel, Hansgeorg and Sitzmann, Martin (2008) Prediction of the transition location on a hybrid laminar flow engine nacelle using the eN method of linear boundary layer stability theory and validation by flight testing. DLR-Interner Bericht. DLR-IB 124-2008/4, 36 S.
Full text not available from this repository.
The prediction of the location of the transition from laminar to turbulent boundary layer flow on a hybrid laminar flow(HLF) engine nacelle flight tested on the DLR VFW614/ATTAS is carried out using the eN method of the local linear stability theory. The value of the limiting N factor NLIM required for the transition prediction has been derived from an analysis of flight tests with a natural laminar flow engine nacelle previously flight tested on the same aircraft at the same flight and engine operating conditions. In contrast to the flight trials with the natural laminar flow nacelle, for the HLF nacelle flight tests there existed an additional receptivity component due to the waviness of the forebody surface of the manufactured HLF nacelle fan cowl as result of the aerodynamic surface quality not complying with the manufacturing specification. For the validation of the transition prediction, results obtained using the infrared thermography as well as the external surface temperature distribution on the HLF nacelle fan cowl have been drawn upon. It is found that the transition location prediction by the eN method underestimates the longitudinal extent of the laminar boundary layer flow on the HLF nacelle fan cowl by about the same amount by which the experimentally determined transition location differs between the infrared thermography and the surface temperature measurement results.

A weekly roundup of fishing conditions throughout central Pennsylvania.
Moon Phase: New moon, Oct. 28; first quarter, Nov. 6; full moon, Nov. 13; last quarter, Nov. 19.
River Conditions: National Weather Service gauges Thursday afternoon on the Susquehanna River: Sunbury, 5.54 feet; Harrisburg, 3.03 feet; Marietta, 32.2 feet. On the Juniata River: Lewistown, 2.49 feet; Newport, 3.2 feet.
Bass Fever Guide Service, Mechanicsburg: The cold snap has the smallmouth bass on the Susquehanna River wanting warmer water with baitfish present. On a recent afternoon outing at Goldsboro, jerkbaits were producing some nice fish up to 3.5 pounds, but each one was plenty of hard and required covering much water. When one bass was found, another usually was close, leading up to widen our circle with some success. Sundown led to some furious action, with three clients netting two fish at a time, until darkness forced us from the river.
Performance Marine, Etters: Cooling water temperatures in the Susquehanna have slowed the smallmouth action a bit, although some good fish are still being taken. Surface lures were hot recently, with a five-pounder being among the action. Walleyes are starting to hit hairjigs, twister tails and grubs at Dock Street and downriver of York Haven Dam.
Black's Bait and Tackle, Selinsgrove: In very low water, some smallies are being hooked near the now-lowered Fabridam and at Isle of Q. Live minnows, Rapalas and Husky Jerks have been the hot bait and lures. Anglers using the latter also have been hooking up with walleyes in deeper holes of the river.
Ron's Wholesale Bait, Harrisburg: Swatara Creek has been hot lately for everything from smallmouth bass to trout to fallfish, mostly coming for shiners. Fathead minnows have been producing brown trout on Yellow Breeches Creek,
Koinonia Guide Service, Carlisle: Recent trips on the Susquehanna, out of Fort Hunter and Shady Nook, have produced large numbers of smallmouth, including one that measured 21 inches in length. On one trip, we boated 60 smallies. Without a doubt, soft plastics are still our best bait, but some fish are hitting hard jerkbaits, spinnerbaits and topwater lures. We continue to catch walleyes frequently, but not enough to start guiding for them; probably will start in November.
Hawghead Baits, Wellsville: A recent club tournament on the Susquehanna produced large numbers of small bass, with many coming on tubes. Pig-jigs are drawing largemouth bass on Pinchot Lake, where crappies have began hitting darts and fathead minnows.
And, from the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission...
Huntingdon County: Nice crappies are being caught at the Petersburg Dam.
Lancaster County: Walleye fishing on the Susquehanna River has been on the rise, with the nights getting colder and the water temperatures dropping. A few anglers are having success catching crappies on minnows and chartreuse jigs.
York County: Anglers on the Susquehanna River find that the smallmouth bass are more active with the cooler weather. Small crankbaits, spinnerbaits and tubes are producing the best results. Best spots on the river seem to be Safe Harbor and Goldsboro. Walleyes are starting to school up at Safe Harbor and Conowingo Dam. Crankbait and live minnow are the best baits. A few striped bass over the 30-inch mark are hitting live minnows at Conowingo Dam.

The City of Providence averages over 20,000 false alarms per year. Each call requires a Police Officer to respond to the location. These false alarms divert Police Officers from their assigned patrols and place an undue burden on Department resources.
On January 1, 2006 the City of Providence implemented an Ordinance in an effort to reduce the number of false alarms. The Ordinance requires any person utilizing an alarm system to register that alarm system with the Providence Police Department. A one-time registration permit fee of ten dollars ($10.00) per alarm system shall be payable to the city collector. New alarm systems must be registered within sixty (60) days after installation. A completed Security Alarm Registration Permit Form and the $10 registration fee in the form of a check or money order should be sent to the following address:
Alarm Registration Unit
444 Westminster Street 2nd Floor
Providence, RI 02903
The Ordinance defines a false alarm "as the activation of an alarm system which results in an arrival at the alarm site by the Police Department when an emergency does not exist." If the responding Police Officer(s) determine the alarm to be false, the property owner is notified in writing of the false alarm. If there are three additional false alarms at the same location within a fiscal year, the property owner will be assessed a $50 fine. For each subsequent false alarm that occurs during the current fiscal year (begins July 1 and ends on June 30), the property owner will be assessed another $50.
If an alarm user has a grievance, a review board has been formed to hear false alarm grievances. The grievance board consists of: two members of the Providence Police Department, one member of the Providence City Council and two members of the RI Alarm Association.
For additional information concerning the registration and/or notification process, please contact the Providence Police Department's Alarm Registration Unit at (401) 680-5582.
