Comments about Voyage-Air Guitar Songwriter VAOM-04 Travel Acoustic Guitar:
Potentially an excellent product. A very clever hinge system to allow the neck to be folded for easy transportation, but flawed by poor quality control at the factory and customer service from this manufacturer. I noticed poor intonation for some time on my instrument, finally a local luthier confirmed that the bridge had been incorrectly positioned on the guitar and correction would require moving the bridge and refinishing the guitar surface. Not what you expect from a new guitar.

What is in this article?:
- Early corn harvest clouding Sept. 1 old-crop numbers
- Export estimates
- The Sept. 1 estimate of old-crop corn stocks can have important price implications in some years, particularly when stocks are relatively small and the new crop is also expected to be small, like this year.
More About:
A larger percentage of the U.S. corn grain acreage was harvested in August this year than is typically the case.
The availability of large, new-crop corn supplies during the last month of the previous marketing year makes it more difficult to anticipate the magnitude of old-crop stocks on Sept. 1, according to University of Illinois agricultural economist Darrel Good.
Good quoted the USDA's weekly Crop Progress report saying that 6 percent of the corn acreage in the 18 major producing states was harvested as of Aug. 26 and 10 percent was harvested as of Sept. 2, implying about 9 percent of the acreage was harvested by the end of August.
Harvest progress by the end of August last year, and the average for the previous 5 years, was about 2.5 percent, Good said.
"If the average yield of the harvested acreage this year was near the average of 122.8 bushels forecast for the U.S, then about 965 million bushels were likely harvested in August compared to about 310 million bushels likely harvested in August last year," Good said.
"However, this year the most advanced harvest progress, relative to average and to that of last year, was in Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri, and Tennessee where state average yields are projected to range from 70 to 91 bushels, or 36 to 53 bushels below the national average yield."
Harvest progress in southern states not included in the 18-state report was well advanced by the end of August, but with progress well ahead of last year's pace only in Arkansas and to a lesser extent in Louisiana.
Progress was behind that of last year in the other southern states. "It seems likely that new-crop corn available before Sept. 1 this year was about 600 million bushels larger than the availability of a year ago," Good said.
The question is how much of the newly harvested crop was actually consumed in August.
Good said that the degree of substitution of new-crop for old-crop corn in August has implications for the magnitude of old-crop corn still in inventory on Sept. 1.
He explained that regardless of how new-crop corn was consumed in August (feed, export, or domestic processing) it will be reflected in the balance sheet in the feed and residual category.
The USDA has forecast the Sept. 1 inventory of old-crop corn at 1.181 billion bushels, implying consumption of old-crop corn during the fourth quarter of the 2011-12 marketing year of 1.974 billion bushels.

Staff lunch from No. 7 Sub in Manhattan: General Tso's Tofu with seaweed and pickles, Eggplant Parm with fontina, yellow squash, pickled jalapenos and BBQ potato chips (on the sub), Zucchini Cubano with smoked gouda, peaches and pickled daikon, and an fBLT (the "f" stands for fake, presumably), with soy bacon, lettuce, green and red tomatoes. We love the innovative vegetarian sandwiches (they make meaty subs as well). Some are better than others: the seaweed on the fried General Tso's Tofu is a knockout, the BBQ potato chips on the Eggplant Parm are a nice, crunchy touch, the soy bacon… not that good. Either way, we're happy to get a break from mozzarella with roasted red peppers.

Hi I have a "Rochow" "Swirlmixer" That is Salt & Pepper & Sugar shaker & pourer, it is about the same shape and size as your mixer except it is made of plastic, it is clear green on the bottom and clear white on the top, the top rotates to shake and pour salt, pepper, and sugar, and was made for a company called "Stanhome".Stanhome was I believe the first company to intoduce Home Party sales onto the American and world Markets. I am just looking for information on this product before I sell it on E-Bay, I would appreciate any information I can get. Thanks all.

Anonymous - There is very little information about Rochow out there on the web other than a handful of sites selling vintage Swirl Mixers (or aggregating other web sales results.) Sorry I can't be of more help, but maybe a "Completed Items" search on eBay can help you get a better idea of its worth.

I live not to far from Rochester, NY and that interested me. Sure enough keep up the good work. I love your dog. I own a long-haired chihuahua. From one dog lover to another.

The swirl mixer is awesome! I inherited it from my Mother and hopefully, one day, my own daughter will want to use it also. I make delicious sauces and gravy with the one that I own. I would truly enjoy having the 2-cup size. I think that one of the nicest ways that one can express love for their family is by cooking and baking enjoyable food for them. Peace! S.

Senior services' pay draws questions
ST. CLAIRSVILLE Belmont County commissioners heard updates on several management issues of county sites and departments during Wednesday's meeting.
County Tourism Director Doc Householder gave a report for the months of January, February and March. He said that the Tourism Council decided not to take charge of the I-70 Westbound Tourism Information Center.
A graphics company in Toledo has taken over that and more than 10 other locations. Cost to place brochures there will be $50 per month.
Clarence Briggs inquired into the division of payment for senior services employees.
Commissioner Matt Coffland said senior services was budgeted $2.2 million last year. A total of 60 employees are paid from the senior services levy and other funds. Administration and management is paid through Job and Family Services, and the hours they work for senior services is charged through that division. Several employees saw an increase in salary after taking on duties at senior services.
Pease Township Trustee Michael Bianconni suggested a new quarterly report update may be in order, as well as posting of expenses.
Richard Hord also asked if any jobs had been put in jeopardy during the process of establishing a senior services department. Coffland said this was too early to determine.
John White voiced support for the miners of the former Peabody Coal, now Patriot Coal. Commissioner Matt Coffland said that when Peabody transferred its assets into the new company. Peabody filed bankruptcy and 13,000 miners lost health and other benefits.
"This county's going down the wrong road," said Coffland. "That's not right."
In other matters, commissioners motioned to approve and sign a change order for $2,452.15 for Fields Excavating, Inc. for the Neffs Sanitary Sewer Project. This will be paid through the Ohio EPA Water Pollution Control Loan Fund.
Commissioners motioned to enter into contract with H.E. Neumann for $23,339 for two new Toshiba/Carrier inverter style ductless heat pump systems to heat and cool the upper and lower levels of the county recorder's office.
Commissioners motioned to approve the rehiring of Jared Clovis as a summer student employee for buildings and grounds at the rate of $7.85 per hour.
Commissioners motioned to hire Bo DeCoy as a summer student employee for the Belmont County Sanitary Sewer District at the rate of $7.85 per hour, effective May 13.

Future builders tour Grand Valley construction sites
Posted on December 14, 2012
A group from a local program that teaches young adults about trade jobs in construction visited two Grand Valley construction sites December 14.
About 12 people from YouthBuild, a 40-week leadership program for low-income participants ages 18-24 that focuses on teaching construction jobs skills, toured the L. William Seidman Center and the Mary Idema Pew Library Learning and Information Commons. Students learned about many aspects of the construction projects, including engineering, operations, safety, sustainability and day-to-day tasks.
Amber Fox, director of YouthBuild, said touring the sites at Grand Valley is a valuable opportunity for Youthbuild students to see a wide range of trade skills and talk with workers.
James Moyer, assistant vice president for Facilities Planning, told the students there is always work needed in the construction industry, and that the university is happy to see community interest in Grand Valley projects.
YouthBuild is going on its second year and is a partnership between Habitat for Humanity of Kent County, Bethany Christian Services and the U.S. Department of Labor. Part of the program helps the students obtain their GED while learning construction job skills by building affordable housing for low-income families in Kent County. Upon completion of the program, participants will receive case management services and assistance with job placement.

Really didn't expect it but the NBA felt that JR's flagrant 2 was worthy of a 1 game suspension for game 4.
This is BS, this is the playoffs and if we were deadlocked 3-3 with the series hanging in the balance this suspension might mean the difference in advancing. The rules need to be adjusted for the playoffs, fines and not suspensions if it isn't a blatant Artest elbow to Harden's head knock down.
Judge for yourself, to me it was worthy of an ejection but not a suspension.

Citi hires key financial sponsors banker from Credit Suisse
Citigroup has hired a new European head of its alternative assets group - the unit that caters to private equity firms - filling an important seat that had become vacant earlier in the year.
Anthony Diamandakis, who was a managing director in Credit Suisse's leveraged finance and financial sponsors group, will join the US bank as head of AAG in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
He will report to Brad Coleman, global head of AAG, and Manuel Falco, head of banking for Europe, Middle East, and Africa. Credit Suisse declined to comment. Diamandakis could not be reached for comment.
He previously spent 17 years at Credit Suisse, having joined predecessor Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette in 1997 in Chicago. He later moved to New York and then London.
His appointment is one of Citigroup's marquee hires this year, and follows news that the bank is planning to establish a new infrastructure team in Europe, and the re-establishment of a dedicated real estate team.
Falco told Financial News: "Financial sponsors is a key focus for us, and we have achieved what we wanted to in hiring Anthony. He is a highly experienced person, he is someone that has the drive and the energy, and is someone who is very client focused.
"That is what we were looking for, and we feel incredibly happy about this hire. This is a clear sign of what we want to do in the sector."
Financial sponsors coverage is a key area for investment banks, making up almost a quarter, or 23%, of global investment banking fees in the first half, according to Dealogic's preliminary numbers for the period.
Private equity firms have been rushing to dispose of assets through the public markets, with global financial sponsor equity capital markets volume, at $107.5 billion, the highest first half record in total. The second quarter also has the highest quarterly volume on record.
Many of these mandates were won many months ago, and in some cases years ago, as advisory banks that worked on acquisitions continue advising clients through to the exit. That can make it hard to make up ground with financial sponsors quickly.
Falco said: "We are going to be looking forward, not back. We're not going to be employing a financing-led model, but rather one driven by idea generation with financing there to support it."
Diamandakis fills a gap left vacant following the departure of Steve Conway, who previously headed the alternative assets group and who left in March. He has since joined PennantPark Investment Advisers, a firm which focuses on providing finance to mid-market companies.
Earlier in the year, Dimi Georgiou, who had co-led the bank's industrials group and was moved into the alternative assets group in October last year, left for a role at RBC Capital Markets.

NVIDIA Mirrors Qualcomm's Hot Streak With Earnings Surprise of Its Own
Jason Mick

Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
NVIDIA unleashes its metaphorical can of "whoop ass"
There was a time -- back in 2010 -- when NVIDIA Corp. (
) looked a bit lost. A resurgent Radeon brand, now owned by Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (
), was
punishing it in the discrete graphics market
with the Radeon HD 5000 series devices, and analysts were scratching their heads in puzzlement at NVIDIA's focus on GPU computing.
And NVIDIA's
Tegra system-on-a-chip effort
was largely written off, as NVIDIA couldn't seem to figure out what it wanted to do with it -- netbooks? Mobile devices? No one could quite tell.
I. A Young Power in the Mobile Market
Fast-forward three years and NVIDIA is in a far different -- and far better -- position. GPU computing is an exploding field and NVIDIA has
large purchase orders
from the hottest new deployments. It's back to
scoring wins
in the gaming graphics market.
And most importantly Tegra has exploded, seizing a commanding stake in the mobile device system-on-a-chip (SoC) market.
In calendar/fiscal Q3 2012, NVIDIA
large earnings and revenue surprises, delivered thanks to its SoC and GPU market gains. Revenue fell in at $1.204B USD (GAAP), pleasantly above the consensus of $1.192B USD estimated by 33 analysts
surveyed by
The Financial Times
Tegra 3 drove NVIDIA to a big profit surprise.
much like system-on-a-chip archrival Qualcomm
, Inc. (
), the biggest surprise lay not on the revenue, but on the net income (profit) front. NVIDIA pocketed a whopping $209M USD, ($0.33 USD/share), above the most optimistic estimate of $203M USD ($0.32 USD/share) from the analyst crowd, and even higher above the average estimate of $187M USD.
NVIDIA's at times colorful and divisive chief executive officer and president, Jen Hsun Huang crowed, "Investments in our new growth strategies paid off this quarter in record revenues and margins. Kepler GPUs are winning across the special-purpose PC markets we serve, from gaming to design to supercomputing. And Tegra is powering some of the most innovative tablets, phones and cars in the market."
The chipmaker decided to share the wealth with its shareholders, offering up a 7.5 cent dividend.
Capital expenditures for NVIDIA have grown as the company sharpens its focus on bleeding edge system-on-a-chip research. NVIDIA estimates that it will spend $50M to $60M USD next quarter on R&D and other CAPEX.
II. Gloom for Q4, But It Could be Worse
Looking ahead, while NVIDIA's Q3 results mirror Qualcomm's, its Q4 estimates are
than its rivals. NVIDIA estimates that revenue will dip to between $1.025B and $1.175B USD on a slowing global economy, versus the traditional bump in the holiday season.
One possible reason why NVIDIA is more worried than Qualcomm is that much of its earnings are still driven by sales of high-end (
) hardware (GPUs) for traditional consumer and enterprise systems. When the economy slumps, these sales tend to suffer the most, as users consolidate their buying power towards cheaper mobile devices. In that regard, a mix mobile/traditional chipmaker like NVIDIA will likely be hurt more by a downturn than a solely mobile-centric chipmaker like Qualcomm.
A slowing economy is expected to dent NVIDIA's Q4 earnings.
However, NVIDIA's better-than-expected earnings do represent good news in a couple of ways. First, NVIDIA and Qualcomm represent a reasonably good barometer by which to gauge the health of the mobile market. And by the looks of it, mobile is flourishing at a time when other less fortunate markets find themselves facing tough financial questions.
Second, NVIDIA enjoys a key psychological advantage over Qualcomm in that it's pumping out quad-core units of its latest and greatest Tegra 3 processor, while Qualcomm's current Snapdragon 4 offerings are mostly constrained to dual-core CPUs. That's a big reason why NVIDIA is thus far
outpacing Qualcomm in design wins
in the emerging Windows RT ARM-based laptop/hybrid device market.
Traditional PCs demand more power, and NVIDIA has been the most aggressive about push higher core-counts in its mobile chips. That decision will likely pay off for the company, and help it ride out the storm ahead in the discrete graphics market.
FT [analyst estimates]
"So, I think the same thing of the music industry. They can't say that they're losing money, you know what I'm saying. They just probably don't have the same surplus that they had." -- Wu-Tang Clan founder RZA

Man sought after high speed chase
SHEPHERDSTOWN -Police say they have identified a man who managed to elude capture last month following a high-speed police pursuit through Berkeley County and Shepherdstown, and police are currently seeking his whereabouts.
According to police, the driver has been identified as 35-year-old Shermaine Devaughn Rhone, who has been known to be staying in the Hagerstown area and the Fairmont, W.Va., area.
Rhone is described as black male, 5 feet 6 inches tall, weighing 162 pounds. He is wanted on charges of fleeing from an officer in a vehicle with reckless indifference and child neglect creating a risk of injury.
Police allege that there were three other adults and a 19-month-old child in the car Rhone was driving during the Sept. 22 police pursuit.
On the night of the incident, the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office was notified at about 10:20 p.m. that the Berkeley County Sheriff's Department was in pursuit of a car headed toward Jefferson County traveling at high speed on W.Va. 45.
Cpl. Dustin Tabler of the Jefferson County Sheriff's Department engaged in the pursuit, attempting to stop the driver, who was driving in excess of 90 mph on W.Va. 45.
The vehicle turned onto University Drive, driving through the campus of Shepherd University. The driver continued to refuse to stop and – upon exiting Shepherd's campus – turned onto W.Va. 480 and traveled into Maryland.
The vehicle pursuit continued into Washington County, and the Maryland State Police and the Washington County Sheriff's Office attempted to assist. The vehicle was not stopped and was later found abandoned near the Food Lion on Sharpsburg Pike.
Anyone who has information regarding Rhone's whereabouts is asked to contact the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office at 304-728-3205 or their local law enforcement agencies.

Police in Hampton, Va., weren't laughing when a Waffle House employee pulled an April Fools' prank by reporting a fake robbery.
Employee Susan Tinker, 20, reported the robbery just before 6 a.m. on April 1, according to the Virginian-Pilot.
Officers spent more than an hour investigating before figuring out the report was a prank, police told Virginia TV station WTKR.
Tinker was arrested and charged with falsely summoning police. She could face a $2,500 fine and/or a year in prison, according to the Virginian-Pilot.
A Waffle House spokesperson told WTKR Tinker no longer works there.

The company had the lowest of three bids on the project, coming in at $278,413.08. Engineers Jim Urban and Stephen Grunewald recommended approval of the bid, saying they had checked out the company and found it reputable.
City Manager Deborah Ballí said the project will be paid out of city funds and a $300,000 matching Community Development Block Grant.
The scope of the project will include the replacement and upgrading of existing water lines, valves and hydrants in the Lightburne Street area.
Council members also scheduled a public hearing for their Nov. 13 meeting to hear comments on a proposed increase in solid waste collection rates.
Ballí told council members that Allied Waste had increased the city's rates twice in recent years and those increases were not passed on to customers by the city. She said the last time the council increased trash collection rates was in 2008.
The council will be asked to consider increasing the monthly fee for collecting trash from the current $20.84 a month to $21.33 a month.
Previously this month, the council approved several park use requests, street closing requests, hotel and motel tax fund applications.
The council also rescinded a previously approved tax abatement agreement with Kaspar Ranch Hand Equipment and replaced it with another agreement, and appointed Councilmen John Fulghum and David Carabajal to work with the city staff on proposed city charter revisions.

"Osirak Redux? Assessing Israeli Capabilities to Destroy Iranian Nuclear Facilities"
Journal Article, International Security, volume 31, issue 4, pages 7-33
Spring 2007
Authors: Whitney Raas, Austin Long
Belfer Center Programs or Projects: International Security; Quarterly Journal: International Security
Does Israel have the ability to conduct a military attack against Iran's nuclear facilities similar to its 1981 strike on Iraq's Osirak reactor? The Israeli Air Force has significantly upgraded its equipment since the early 1980s, but the Iranian nuclear complex is a much harder target than was the Osirak reactor. Iran has three facilities that are critical for nuclear weapons production: a uranium conversion facility, an enrichment facility, and a heavy-water production plant and associated plutonium production reactor. This article analyzes possible interactions of Israel's improved air force, including the addition of F-15I aircraft and U.S.-supplied conventional "bunker-buster" precision-guided munitions, with the Iranian target set and air defense systems. It concludes that Israel has the capability to attack Iran's nuclear infrastructure with at least as much confidence as it had in the 1981 Osirak strike. Beyond the case of Iran, this finding has implications for the use of precision-guided weapons as a counterproliferation tool. Precision-guided weapons confer the ability to reliably attack hard and deeply buried targets with conventional, rather than nuclear, weapons. Intelligence on the location of nuclear sites is thus the primary limiting factor of military counterproliferation.

Sometimes you need to use different Erlang versions for different projects. I personally have to use an old R12B-5 for one of my projects, which won't compile on any of the latest Erlang versions. The question is then:
How to switch from one version of Erlang to another one in a simple way?
There are no magics behind what I'm going to say in this post. Actually, this post will sound quite trivial to most of you. I simply wanted to share what I currently do with the ones of you who might have the same need. I'm using Snow Leopard, but all of the above should apply to any UNIX-like system. Also, I assume you're fine with installing Erlang from source.
Assume you have two separate Erlang installations in your home directory:
Notice that you can specify the installation path of Erlang by selecting, at installation time:
./configure –prefix=YOUR_INSTALLATION_PATH
First of all, let's edit our ~/.bashrc, by adding the following line:
Then, let's create the bin folder under the home directory:
mkdir $HOME/bin
Let's now create some scripts in the directory we've just created. We will need one script for each installation we want to use.
Let's create a file called "13" (no extension). Inside the file, we write:
#!/bin/bash env PATH=/User/[USERNAME]/erlang13b04/bin:$PATH "$@"
Let's then do the same for R14. Create a file named "14" and write the following into it:
#!/bin/bash env PATH=/User/[USERNAME]/erlang14a/bin:$PATH "$@"
Make the two script executable:
cd ~/bin
chmod +x 13 14
Let's "source" the ~/.bashrc (or simply open a new shell):
source ~/.bashrc
That's it. If you want to run a command using R13, just:
13 erl
Erlang R13B04 (erts-5.7.5)
Eshell V5.7.5 (abort with ^G)
14 erl
Erlang R14A (erts-5.8)
Eshell V5.8 (abort with ^G)
Assuming you have a project you want to compile with R13:
13 make
Or, if you prefer R14:
14 make
Well, you should have got the idea at this point…
Notice that you can still specify the path of your favourite (default) Erlang installation in your ~/.bashrc file, so you wan't need to prepend "14" to your commands every time you want to use the latest Erlang version.
As I've already said, there's nothing special here. Just a bit of playing with paths that might turn useful from time to time.

By attorney Keith Morris, Special to THELAW.TV
Drafting an estate plan is an important step for every adult, but there are several common mistakes that are made in this process. When you set out to create your plan, don't leave these key points out:
1. Advanced medical directives: With the many wonderful advancements in medicine and health care, a greater number of Americans are living with illnesses and injuries that once would have been fatal. In some cases though, these conditions can leave you temporarily or permanently unable to make decisions on your own behalf. Having an advance medical directive as part of your estate plan will allow you to designate a trusted person to make health care decisions on your behalf. Even more importantly, you can lay out in this document what types of medical care you are comfortable with so that the person you choose knows your wishes and can follow them.
2. Power of attorney: If you were incapacitated by injury or illness, who would make financial decisions on your behalf? Bills will keep coming, no matter what your situation, and someone must be able to take care of these matters for you. Designating an agent to act for you in financial matters is vital to any estate plan. An estate planning attorney can help you include a power of attorney document in your plan to do just that.
3. Distribution of personal belongings: In the probate process after a loved one dies, the most hotly contested items aren't usually homes, cars or savings accounts but the personal belongings of the decedent. When you and your estate planning attorney draft your will, be sure to explicitly designate your prized personal belongings to the beneficiaries of your choice.
4. Let someone know where your plan is: Even the most carefully crafted estate plan is meaningless if no one can find it when needed. Avoid this issue by telling a trusted person or persons where you are storing your estate plan and make sure it will be accessible when needed.
5. Protection for your beneficiaries: One issue that is often overlooked is what happens to a person's inheritance when they go through a divorce. If you leave money or property to an adult child, and he or she goes through a divorce, is their ex-spouse entitled to part of the inheritance? While no one hopes for this scenario, it should be considered. An estate planning attorney can walk you through ways to protect your loved ones' inheritance.
6. Care for pets: Pets are beloved members of the family, yet they are often overlooked when planning for the future. If something happens to you, who would take your pet? During estate planning, you can designate a guardian for your furry family members.
7. Medical retirement: If you suffer an injury or illness that forces medical retirement, will you have the assets to continue your lifestyle? Can you afford assisted living facilities if needed? These are questions that should be discussed when working on your estate plan. In some cases, you may consider self-insurance or private long-term care insurance. Your attorney can also help you structure your assets so that you may qualify for Medicaid if needed to pay for long-term care.
8. Keep it updated: Once you have a good, all-encompassing plan in place, it may never need any changes. But for most people, estate plans will undergo many changes over the course of their lives as circumstances and relationships change. Update your plan every few years or when major life events, such as marriage, divorce or the birth of children or grandchildren, occur.

Confusion and chaos. That's what the man in charge says he faced at the scene of the deadly shooting at a Waikiki McDonald's in 2011.
Kenneth Schreiner, a retired police sergeant, took the stand Thursday in the murder trial of federal agent Christopher Deedy. He says on that tragic morning on Nov. 5, he'd already dispatched officers around Waikiki looking for the gunman not realizing the gunman was still inside.
Schreiner says it was a McDonald's employee who told officers the man kneeling over a gravely wounded Kollin Elderts was the shooter. He says he was shocked to learn Deedy was a federal agent.
"At first, when I saw what had happened, it was an 'Oh no' moment," said Schreiner. "As a law enforcement officer I was initially surprised."
"It was the first time in 26 years that I've experienced it," said the retired police sergeant.
The defense pressed Schreiner on why officers apparently released potential witnesses, even a woman with blood on her hands. Schreiner agreed Deedy remained calm, quiet and cooperative, but he added he, too, noticed Deedy's eyes were glassy and his breath smelled of alcohol.

January 19, 2012 —
By CORA EDWARDS*
Given the fractious nature of American politics, why would anyone run for office? It's a question I've asked myself more than once over the last 12 months, and my answer is always the same: I love Sullivan County, I want to work with others who love it too, and I believe we can achieve great things when we decide to work together.
Our county faces serious problems, and we must face them with a clear-eyed and steady determination. But we also have great potential in ourselves and in our communities. We have people with energy, ideas and experience aplenty who are not being properly used. And we must find ways to involve a much broader swathe of Sullivan County residents in thinking through—and implementing—solutions. We are our own greatest natural resource.
Those I talk to are passionate about creating better jobs and expanding opportunities for our young people, strengthening Neighborhood Watch groups to ensure our communities are safe, keeping our property taxes from spiraling beyond our capacity to pay them, renovating our Main Streets to support vibrant and sustainable communities, keeping the rural character of our land intact and increasing our income from agriculture and tourism, improving our community college, providing our seniors with a viable adult care center and in-home services and instituting disclosure resolutions for legislators and other ethical reforms. For too long the perception has been that politics is an opportunity for private gain rather than an opportunity to serve the public good. We can work toward generating the conviction that government works for all of us and not just for some.
Encouraging more participation and building greater trust are the issues that underlie all of these concerns—trust between constituents and legislators, taxpayers and budget-makers, and elected officials and the employees who carry out the functions of effective government. Now more than ever, governmental agencies have to cooperate rather than compete for a decreasing pool of public funding while the demand for services continues to increase. If we are to navigate the rough economic waters that lie ahead and secure the relief from unfunded state mandates that Governor Cuomo has promised, we have to move our county government to a whole new level of co-operation.
Trust can grow in an atmosphere of open communication and shared knowledge. While we live in an age where communication with our elected officials can be as simple as clicking on a website url or sending an email, writing a letter or making a phone call, we do not always know how our concerns are handled on the receiving end. Fortunately, the size of Sullivan County means that it is relatively easy to meet and speak to legislators and to engage in the policy-making process in a meaningful way. However, many people can't leave their jobs to attend a public meeting in the middle of the day, so we have to make participation easier by making meetings more accessible and relevant. That's why, even before taking office, I worked together with the Senior Legislative Action Committee (SLAC) and the Hurleyville Fire Company to organize an evening "Firehouse Forum" on the tax issues we face in our County. Seventy-five people attended, which is a hopeful sign. I hope there will be many more opportunities for direct public participation in our County government in the future.
A stronger partnership between citizens and public servants will surely build more trust in the leadership of our county government, a better understanding of what we can achieve together, and a renewed sense of purpose. Those are the things we need to take Sullivan County forward. So let's get to work.

You have no items in your shopping cart.
This print started out as a baseball card more than twenty years ago. Every aspect of it is designed to preserve the original look and feel of the card, from the printing pattern to the slightly worn edges. In fact, this print started by finding the actual card in our vault and then painstakingly re-mastering it with a team of designers. The authenticity extends to manufacturing; each print is made on high-quality, cotton fine art paper that measures 1/64 inches in thickness. Framed prints feature 2-inch flat wood or metallic frames with high-end, glare-resistant glass. And all prints are officially licensed by MLB and the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
STORYLenny Dykstra is grinding on the chaw in this 1989 card, something he usually did in his playing days, as he gets in some pre-game swings. Dykstra would not be wearing the Mets blue that entire season, however, being traded in June to Philadelphia along with Roger McDowell for Juan Samuel.

4 Color Shellac Assortment
Our 4 Color Shellac Assortment, enough to mix one pint each in a 2-lb. cut, contains 4 oz. each of Garnet, Orange, Beige, & Super Blonde.
Shellac's great clarity, depth and shine make it one of the most beautiful finishes in woodworking. The best way to stock the finish is in its dry state, where shelf life can be virtually unlimited. All the highly refined shellacs we carry are dewaxed, the professional's choice for fine finishes beneath other finishes. Mix your shellac with solvent alcohol & stir frequently until dissolved. Garnet Shellac is a deep ruby/orange color, great for an antique look on cherry, mahogany and walnut. Orange shellac's amber tone complements any wood with natural reds, and warms blonde woods like old varnish. Beige is a bit darker than Super Blonde, but lighter than orange. Super Blonde is very pale amber, barely enough to show on light wood.
Instructions on How To Mix Shellac
Notice to residents of California: Please read our Proposition 65 warning.

Growing Pains
Even gardeners with black thumbs can create luscious vinegars and oils infused with herbs.
By Leslie Bilderback 03/01/2010
I come from a long line of great gardeners. My maternal grandmother was raised on a Wisconsin farm, and she taught my mother all the tricks of the trade. Sadly, those skills seem to have skipped my generation. I once killed a Chia Pet.
My grandma's garden was something to behold. It was a huge plot with neat rows of every vegetable imaginable. It had a 10-foot fence to keep out the deer (at least it seemed like it was 10 feet when I was in kindergarten) and a perimeter of crushed eggshells to keep out the snails. Long before it was cool to do so, she had a big compost pile way out back and a coop full of chickens. (You see, kids, Martha Stewart did not invent everything.) I remember walking through a rose garden and a Concord grape–covered arbor, past the pomegranate trees to the garden, where grandma would pull a carrot out of the dirt and rinse it with a hose for me to snack on. I remember her fondly every time I taste a dirty carrot.
My mom is a great gardener too. She taught me the basics of gardening when I was little, and I eagerly helped her tend our own fruitful garden. Being stereotypical California gardeners, we always had way too much zucchini. We made plenty of zucchini bread and ate it grated and sautéed in butter all summer long. We had plenty of artichokes and huge stalks of rhubarb that my friends and I would rip off the plant, douse in sugar and eat raw, daring each other to nibble closer and closer to the poisonous leaves.
Tomatoes, peppers, sunflowers and all kinds of herbs made an annual appearance, as did the occasional pumpkin, grown for the local fall pumpkin contest, which I never won. Yep, I have a million great childhood memories in the garden.
Sadly, my poor kid's childhood garden memories will consist of mom shouting naughty words at the ground, having just discovered — again — that her newly sprouted shoots were nibbled to the quick by someone or something.
It's not fair! Gardening is a hobby perfectly suited to me. I love all things crafty and homemade, I try hard to eat organic and I can easily follow a recipe (which is practically the same as seed packet instructions). Yet despite what seems like the perfect confluence of skill and passion, I can't make a garden grow in my yard.
Of course, that doesn't prevent me from trying year after year. When the temperature begins to warm up and the hardware store moves the rack of seeds close to the register, my heart races like a 13-year-old girl's at a Twilight convention. Shiny trowels, garden gloves, straw hats and tool totes woo me from every aisle. Back home, seed catalogs call out from the mailbox, teasing me with promises of bounty.
But there are a few seemingly insurmountable obstacles that repeatedly render my garden a failure. The first is my soil. It is nothing but hardened clay and must be constantly amended. Because of this, I have developed a serious passion for composting.
Something about sorting garbage plays right into my love of thrift. Oh, the joy of saving vegetable scraps, eggshells, coffee grounds, grass clippings and dirty paper napkins for months, then watching as it miraculously transforms into a fragrant mound of soil. The fact that the critical element of compost is worm poop makes it seem a little bit dangerous, and all the more enticing. I love my mini–circle of life: Trash becomes soil, which in turn nurtures the plants we consume, the scraps of which we compost and so on. Or so it would be, if I could grow something edible.
I also have a sunlight problem. Each time I think I have the perfect plot, my trees grow another foot and my once sunny plot is now shrouded in shade. Either that or my dogs decide that, because of the sunlight, my garden bed will now be their actual bed.
And then there is the neighborhood wildlife. Someone is routinely eating my sprouting vegetables. I have narrowed it down to either the Edison meter reader guy or one of our frequent backyard visitors. We have raccoons, possums, skunks, coyotes and a colony of squirrels; an Audubonian array of birds, including feral parrots, peacocks and giant red-tailed hawks (which is one reason I chose large dogs over small ones that look tasty from 50 feet in the air); and various rodents, which I am pretty sure are not perfecting ratatouille or sewing ball gowns while we humans sleep.
But my biggest agricultural obstacle is me. Sometimes I kinda forget about my garden. I realize this is not a nurturing attitude. Imagine if I did that with my kids: "Sure, I'll give you water, but as far as your day-to-day activities go, you're on your own." I admit that by the time I remember to check in on its progress, the bird-proof netting or dog-proof fence has been breached. I suppose there are a number of Monsanto products I could apply to solve many of these obstacles, but I am striving to set a healthy, organic example. If I want to poison my family, I'll just hit Mickey D's drive-thru.
I did have a good garden once. It was in the yard of a small house we rented when the kids were babies. It had great soil and no critters, which was probably due to its location on the corner of a busy intersection, with no open space for miles, unless you count the Carrow's parking lot.
So here I go again. Another year, another plot, another raised-bed design and the latest technology in eco-friendly ultrasonic critter defense. It really irks me to know that any bubbleheaded college kid can grow plants in a dorm room closet, but I, a somewhat intelligent and clear-minded adult, can't do it in a Southern Californian garden. Will the indignity never end?

Richard Littlemore | December 5, 2006
By Richard Littlemore • Tuesday, December 5, 2006 - 18:46
DeSmog fans who have been following our conversation with Amy Ridenour of the National Centre for Public Policy Research will surely be entertained by her recent post . Amy complained earlier that we had used a photo of her husband, NCPPR second-in-command David Ridenour, without her permission. She proposed to charge us a dollar for one-time usage and promised to donate the dollar to charity.
I though a buck-a-shot was a good rate, so I sent her a cheque (that's a check drawn on a Canadian bank) for $20, assuming we might want to feature David again. But cynic that I am, I was worried about what charity Amy might nominate, so I took the liberty of making the choice myself: Greenpeace. I can't say that I am entirely surprised that Amy objected, but now she's threatening to keep the cheque indefinitely, an eventuality that is sure to get me in trouble with my extremely fussy accountant. Life can be so hard.
And this could be all so much fun if it weren't for the underlying seriousness of the issue. Amy complains that we are giving short shrift to "all that democracy stuff." She says that in respecting the global consensus on climate change, we are somehow disenfranchising those who would "vote" for another conclusion.
Two things: first, this isn't an election, it's science. You don't get to nominate a pet theory on the basis that it suits your political pals - or you shouldn't. Second, even if we were to cast this in democratic terms, majority rules. All the best scientists in the world agree climate change is a pressing threat. For that matter, most of the best oil company executives agree with them. When those votes are counted, what right does a rump of Exxon-funded deniers have to disrupt the policy process further?
That's a rhetorical question, of course, but I still look forward to Amy's spin. In the meantime, given that I don't have her permission to use David's photo, I have adorned this post with a picture of her testifying before a hearing of the Senate Indian Affairs Committee on July 22, 2005, in regards to her involvement in the Jack Abramoff scandal. I presume this shot is in the public domain, but if she insists, I'll pen another cheque - and pick another beneficiary.

Vermont organic farming exhibit set to open
MONTPELIER – A two-year collaboration involving an agricultural writer and a farmer / photographer has produced a museum-ready exhibit on organic farming in Vermont.
The special exhibit – "Plowing Old Ground: Vermont's Organic Farming Pioneers" – is a mix of words and pictures compiled by Susan Harlow and John Nopper that will be on display at the Vermont History Museum on State Street in Montpelier starting next month.
The March 16 opening, which will be held from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m., will include a reception and short talks by the exhibit's creators.
Harlow is the woman behind the narratives produced from kitchen table interviews with people who helped get the organic ball rolling here in Vermont. Nopper snapped the black and white photographs to accompany them.
Together they tell the stories of six working Vermont farms and their farmers. Two central Vermont farmers and their farms – Joey Klein of Littlewood Farm in Plainfield and Bruce Kaufman of Riverside Farm in Hardwick – are highlighted in the exhibit that also features Vermont's first officially certified organic farmer, Howard Prussack of High Meadows Farm in Putney.
Jack and Anne Lazor of Butterworks Farm in Westfield, Paul Harlow of Harlow Farm in Westminster and Jake and Liz Guest of Killdeer Farm, Norwich are also featured in the exhibit as are images and comments by writer and organic farming advocate Samuel Kaymen.MORE IN This Just InWASHINGTON The House on Thursday cleared bills to keep the government running through April and...

The theme for today is "Group Portrait of an Unknown Family". As said in Sepia Saturday. "All lovers of old photographs are familiar with unknown people, unknown families and unknown places, we all have them in our collection, and Sepia Saturday 165 provides an opportunity to give them their moment in the limelight, not because of who they are but because of who they may be." And so it is with this collection of pictures, some group, some not, that most likely is connected to my Keyes ancestors in Oregon. Their 1870s arrival in eastern Oregon was via Benton County, Isthmas of Panama, Tennessee, Virginia, and back to Ireland and the Scots border lands. The following "unknown" pictures came to me from a Keyes cousin, who had "rescued" a number of old albums that had apparently been in the Brown, Keyes, Butler and Donnelly families. The lovely old fashioned albums were in disrepair -- cut up, pages torn out, pictures removed, and discarded as trash.
This first picture shows two young boys in The Dalles,Oregon, circa 1880s. The photographer was F. J. Gerhes. In the 1850s through 1870s, The Dalles was the County Seat for most of eastern half Oregon, and continued to be an important city on the Columbia for all of eastern Oregon.
The picture below is a tintype of two unknown men. They each have a faint familiar look, and could be from the Keyes, Brown, or Donnelly families in either Corvallis, The Dalles, or Mitchell, Oregon.
The couple below were photographed in The Dalles, Oregon, by C. M. duVall, photographer.
A group picture of a young family. No indication of a photographer, but there was a notation Canyon City (a small town just south of John Day, Oregon) that "might" have gone with this picture.

Against All Odds: The Black Experience
Spring 2014 quarter
Taught by
How did Black men and women, of many different cultures and ages, succeed against all odds? How did they move from victim to victors? Where did they find the insurmountable courage to deconstruct and reconstruct their lives? In this program, students will participate in an inquiry-base exploration of the efficacy, resiliency and longevity of the lives and legacies of selected Black men and women from Ancient Egypt to contemporary times. Our exploration will use the lenses of Ancient Egyptian studies, African, African-American and Afro-Disaporic history, dance history, media and popular culture to investigate the lives of these men and women lives, their historical, cultural and spiritual contexts and legacies.
The class will have a variety of learning environments, including lectures and films, workshops, seminars and research groups. All students will demonstrate their acquired knowledge, skills and insights about the mis-education/re-education process through a quarter -long reflective journal project , a mid -quarter contextual research project; and an end-of-the-quarter final paper and a collaborative performance about the journey from mis-education to education and those factors that allow one to retain their humanity in spite of horrific dehumanizing attempts.

Very nice article and observations.
Fields immediately became less comfortable with the offense once Melo was thrown in. Melo tends to take up a lot of the same space that Fields once occupied. This is especially true with rebounding.
I really hate our ISO game and one on one basketball only works during the regular season. Once the playoffs come around, it becomes harder and harder to get by without exhausting yourself each game if you don't play as a team (Miami vs Dallas). A guy like Fields is designed to compliment and make your team better. Not sit around the 3 point line and basically nothing else.

CNJ staff photo: Liliana Castillo Lt. Gen. Donald Wurster, from left to right, Col. Timothy Leahy and Col. Stephen Clark take part in the change of command ceremony Wednesday held on Cannon Air Force Base.
By Argen Duncan: Freedom New Mexico
Cannon Air Force Base has saluted its new commander.
Outgoing commander Col. Timothy J. Leahy formally handed the reins to new commander Col. Stephen A. Clark during a ceremony Wednesday morning at the base.
Leahy also received the Legion of Merit award for his work as commander of the 27th Special Operations Wing, beginning Oct. 1, 2007.
"During this period, the exemplary ability, diligence and devotion to duty of Col. Leahy were instrumental factors in the establishment of Air Force Special Operations Command's newest wing and installation," the citation read.
According to the citation, Leahy's leadership was critical in the wing flying 60 percent of the U.S. Department of Defense's Predator operations; the start of a new squadron of small and medium aircraft in six months; preparation of Cannon to receive 100 new aircraft; and construction and quality-of-life improvements on base.
Air Force Special Operations Command Commander Lt. Gen. Donald C. Wurster noted recent changes at Cannon and the arrival of new units and aircraft.
"We are here to stay with a mission of relevance in this world," he said.
Wurster told Clark his top priorities would be his mission and his people.
In his speech, Leahy told the audience they were surrounded by American heroes who didn't serve for money or recognition.
"They do it for God and country," he said. "They do it to preserve our way of life. They do it for you."
Leahy said he had been amazed at the tireless efforts of airmen and civilians on base. There is much work still to do, and the nation needs the air commandos' special skills, he said later.
Also, Leahy said the surrounding communities have been supportive and hospitable.
"This mutual respect and close relationship is an integral part of the success of Cannon Air Force Base," he said.
Leahy also thanked his family for its support.
"I could not have done it without you," he said. "Even if I could have, I would not have wanted to."
Clark said he plans to continue to ensure Cannon airmen are well prepared for their mission.
"It is doing what no one else can do or will do but (what) needs doing nonetheless," he said.
Clark asked airmen to take ownership of their base and units and make them the best they could be.
"It is a rare and wonderful opportunity to build a wing from the ground up," he said, adding that he is glad to share in the effort.
Also, Clark thanked his wife, Cynthia, for her wise advice and support for him and the wing. He told the Leahys they would always be the first family of the 27th Special Operations Wing.

I have been trying to deal w/ my oversupply for a while now. I thought it had gotten better after a week of block feedings...I went back to nursing 1 side per feed then the engorgement is back this week (nurses Every 2-3 hrs 1 breast). I don't know what to do. My DS has been having green mucousy BMs w/ blood for wks now. There has been slight improvement....I also cut out Dairy and other foods on the advice of my Peds. I'm not sure if the improvement was from Dairy or block feedings. Peds is now encouraging me to bring DS to specialist ASAP for the blood in stool. I pumped only once this week to leave DS w/ a sitter for a while. I'm wondering if this pumping session increased my supply or is it b/c I quit the block feedings? I am waking each morning engorged. Ds has had same sleep pattern for wks now. I wish my breasts would adjust.
My main question is while at work how do i pump? Should i only pump one breast every 4-6 hrs? I am so frustrated.....Also.....my other delimma...I barely pump and the only milk I have frozen is before going DF. I don't think I can pump out enough milk before leaving in am to hold sitter for 12hrs? This is making me crazy....I can't stand seeing those bloody green stools.......Sorry for rambling. Please help.
