bath salts, heroin
SPRINGFIELD A Springfield man was arrested last month in downtown Springfield and charged with selling heroin and possession of bath salts.
Vermont State Police said Martin Gonyea, 27, of 33 Main Street, was arrested March 19 in connection with the sale of a controlled drug in October 2013.
Police said while searching Gonyea during his arrest, a small amount of crystalline white powder was found inside a small plastic bag in his waistband. The powder was tested at the Vermont Forensic Laboratory and it was determined that is was a-Pyrrolidinopentiophenone (a-PVP), which is an ingredient in bath salts.
Gonyear was cited to appear May 13 in White River Junction criminal court to face a felony charge of sale of heroin and possession of a stimulant drug, a misdemeanor.

I see we quietly announced HERD 2.0 for Sun AMD based machines.
By timatworkhomeandinbetween on Mar 04, 2009
"Herd 2.0" what is that ?
"Hardware Error Report and Decode (HERD) utility" . Its a monitoring daemon for all Sun AMD processor based systems running fairly recent versions of suse and redhat linux that is designed to monitor the machine check log and decode any errors there. Earlier version were available but had knowledge of the hardware topology of only certain Sun AMD processor based systems but with version 2.0 its ALL Sun AMD based systems.
With the complete topology of the systems it can decode the information that the CPU provides for a error into physical components eg to a specific DIMM
From the Sun download centre ... https://cds.sun.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/CDS-CDS_SMI-Site/en_US/-/USD/ViewProductDetail-Start?ProductRef=HERD-2.0-M-G-F@CDS-CDS_SMI
Low frequencies of correctable errors are an expected part of modern computing and you need to consult your hardware service provider to determine when a DIMM is generating too many Correctable Errors and should be swapped.

First thing on the agenda — they saw a typical exam the students would take during class.
But the lessons that day, as they sat with their children, were about more than just class work and tests.
Yvonne Duge, guest speaker at the event hosted by Fathers Active in Community Education, emphasized their importance in their youngster's life.
"You don't know how important you are to your children's education," she told the 50 or so fathers gathered in the school's cafeteria that morning. "The power of a father in their children's life and eduction is so vast."
Alphonso Rincon, with Fathers Active in Community Education, said that this was the first of three events at the school.
He said that their goal is to let parents, and especially fathers, know what is expected of students and their role in the success of the youth.
Another part of the exercises that morning was simply getting to know not just their children but others.
Rudy Garcia, one of the fathers there that morning, spoke with Isaiah, who longed to be an artist or a basketball player when he grew up.
"Sometimes life is not very easy. Sometimes you fall down," Garcia offered as advice to the youngster. "But a champion gets up. Whether it is in school, football or on the job — if you get down, get back up."

The Beeville native owns a 12-8 record (.600) in two seasons as UTSA's starting quarterback, and he is the program's all-time leading passer (338-for-589/4,233 yards/34 TDs) and rusher by attempts (162 for 649 yards).
Soza is coming off a junior campaign that saw him complete 166-of-282 (58.9 percent) passes for 2,085 yards and 20 touchdowns, including a program-record four at No. 22 Louisiana Tech (Nov. 3). His 314 passing yards against the Bulldogs and 82-yard TD toss to Kenny Bias at New Mexico State (Sept. 29) also were school marks. The 6-foot, 205-pounder threw just three interceptions and, at one time, went a Football Bowl Subdivision-leading 256 passes between picks. He also ran for 364 yards and six TDs on 67 carries (5.4 avg.) and tied a program record with three rushing scores at Idaho (Nov. 17).
The Manning Award was created by the Allstate Sugar Bowl in honor of the college football accomplishments of Archie, Peyton and Eli Manning. It is the only award that includes the candidates' bowl performances in its balloting.
This year's group of signal callers was selected in conjunction with the release of ESPN's new "Total Quarterback Rating" (QBR) and the nation's top 30 returning quarterbacks according to the QBR make up the watch list. The winner still will be selected by a voting panel, which includes national media, as well as the Manning family, after the bowl season is complete.
Now in its 10th year, the award previously has recognized USC's Matt Leinart (2005), Texas' Vince Young (2006), LSU's JaMarcus Russell (2007), Boston College's Matt Ryan (2008), Florida's Tim Tebow (2009), Texas' Colt McCoy (2010), Auburn's Cam Newton (2011), Baylor's Robert Griffin III (2012) and Texas A&M's Johnny Manziel (2013) as the nation's top quarterback.
Additional signal callers may be added to the watch list after the start of the season. Ten finalists will be named on Wednesday, Nov. 27, and the winner will be announced on Wednesday, Jan. 8.

Apple's iTunes U Apps Top 1B Downloads
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Apple (AAPL) continues to put out more press releases this year, perhaps in an effort to change public opinion. The latest one shows that iTunes U content downloads have topped 1 billion.
The company said more than 1,200 universities and colleges, and 1,200 K-12 schools and districts are now hosting over 2,500 public and thousands of private courses as a result of iTunes U. Such universities as Duke, Yale, Cambridge, MIT and Oxford are leading the way, with more than 100,000 students enrolled in single iTunes U courses.
"It's inspiring to see what educators and students of all types are doing with iTunes U," said Apple's Eddy Cue in a press release. "With the incredible content offered on iTunes U, students can learn like never before; there are now iTunes U courses with more than 250,000 students enrolled in them, which is a phenomenal shift in the way we teach and learn."
Here is the press release in its entirety:
Apple® today announced that iTunes U® content downloads have topped one billion. iTunes U features the world's largest online catalog of free educational content from top schools and prominent libraries, museums and organizations helping educators create courses including lectures, assignments, books, quizzes and more for iOS users around the world.
"It's inspiring to see what educators and students of all types are doing with iTunes U," said Eddy Cue, Apple's senior vice president of Internet Software and Services. "With the incredible content offered on iTunes U, students can learn like never before―there are now iTunes U courses with more than 250,000 students enrolled in them, which is a phenomenal shift in the way we teach and learn."
More than 1,200 universities and colleges, and 1,200 K-12 schools and districts host over 2,500 public and thousands of private courses encompassing the arts, sciences, health and medicine, education, business and more. Leading universities including Duke, Yale, Cambridge, MIT and Oxford continue to extend their reach by enrolling more than 100,000 students in single iTunes U courses, with Stanford University and The Open University each surpassing 60 million content downloads. The Ohio State University's Matthew "Dr. Fus" Stoltzfus' General Chemistry course enrolled over 100,000 iTunes U students in the first year it was offered.
"The interest my iTunes U course receives from non-college students is overwhelming," said Professor Stoltzfus. "I've been working with high school teachers who use my iTunes U material to prepare to teach their own classes, high school students all over the world who are leveraging the course to tutor their fellow classmates, even retirees who download my iTunes U course to stay intellectually active."
Over 60 percent of iTunes U app downloads originate from outside the US, giving schools of any size the ability to share their content with a worldwide audience. The unmatched global reach of iTunes U gives educators, like University of California, Irvine Professor Dan Stokols, international recognition and acclaim in their fields. "Because of iTunes U, I have been able to introduce students and colleagues in China to research on the links between chronic multi-tasking, information overload and stress; discuss research publications and degree programs with students in Europe; and exchange information about the influence of neighborhood design on community levels of physical activity and obesity with students in Australia," said Professor Stokols, whose Environmental Psychology course enrolls over 170,000 students on iTunes U. "The opportunity to impact so many students who are gaining interest in environmental psychology by taking my free course on iTunes U has been highly rewarding and gratifying for me as an educator and learner."

STAT is who he is, a great offensive force who sucks on defense. MDA knew that from day one. So should all Knicks fans.
This game was not lost because Amare played like himself on defense. NYK lost because they did not make their open looks.
It's funny how so many can watch the same game and see different things. STAT's defense was terrrrrible tonight, Please let's get that straight.
I will concede that we had more glaring issues that put us in a hole , but when you are in a 2-7 point deficit dog fight for the better part of the 4th quarter, your 20 mil dollar man cant be missing assignments, wackin at players and not take one charge or lay a hard foul on someone.
The Last 2 nights STAT has looked particularly out of it on defense. His brother's death gets him a pass from me for now..but this cat has to contribute defensively in other ways besides the occasional athletic blocked shot.
Show and RECOVER, take a CHARGE stop being caught FLAT FOOTED and getting sucked up in opposing teams simple ass 3 man weave type plays.
*****I'm getting heated and this may produce a thread later BUT******
If our boy Amare does not begin to do the little things on defense to help us win he is gonna be the villan of NY. Think about it, this team as constructed, and his increasingly noticeable loss of lift, greatly diminishes his chances to be the scorer he used to be.
We have 2 other players Lin and Melo that dominate the ball, and should. So, unless Lin and STAT click ala Steve nash days, STAT's touches are going to be less frequent. This obviously will lead to less points.... at the same pay?? HELL NO BRUH!!! You better contribute somewhere else.
With the Lin circus, the signing of J.R. smith, the pending return of MELO and the team coming off a 7 game streak that he had largely nothing to do with, we are looking at a potential shrinking violet.
The pouty big sister who was prom queen now watching the younger sis get all the glory and feelin left out.
In order to be the man around here again he HAS to stay engaged on defense and work damn hard on the boards. As in, lead the team in that category avging. double digits.
He's goin through the motions out there a bit and I do, again, think some of it has to do with his brother, in any event, he needs to be an ENERGETIC BEAST out there and add some grime to his game and let the rest fall into place.
STAT is who he is, a great offensive force who sucks on defense. MDA knew that from day one. So should all Knicks fans.
This game was not lost because Amare played like himself on defense. NYK lost because they did not make their open looks.
Once again typical D'Antoni Knicks, get back around .500 and start losing games again. I was writing about this not so long ago, happened last season multiple times, happened this season as well. I expect an L5-L6 streak very soon, so we can once again make a run, reach the .500 mark and everyone starts talking about winning a chip.
We aren't going to win every single game. Yeah it sucks to lose to the Hornets but it's not the end of the world. Can't wait for the next game to see how Lin "recovers" from his non-superman performance.
Stat has always been a bad defender I don't understand why people expect much different. However for a PF to go 38 minutes with 0 fouls is kind of ridiculous especially the way Ariza abused him inside a few times.
Well, maybe because people know it works here? History repeats itself, I don't understand people who say "it's just one game" because we all know we've seen it before and we should be aware that it turns into a long losing streak sooner than later. Under this coach we'll always be a .500 franchise.
Charles Oakley hustle more in 1 minute than Renaissance Man has a season.

D'Antoni simply keeps playing guys with huge contracts over players who play defense.
Wow, what a terrible loss for us!
I didn't see this one coming.
What happened?
For 3 and a half quarters our defense was really bad by the look of it.
Lin had his worst game as a Knick (probably the hype is starting to suck his energy out).
Our bench had a stinker with the exception of Jeffries.
Looked like we simply got complacent and didn't take the Hornets for real.
The refs were horrible!!! Absolutely horrible for the third time in 5 games or so. There were atleast 7 fouls (clear fouls!) against Lin that weren't called. Then there were fouls against Jeffries and Stoudemire that weren't called.
Terrible job by the refs!
Stern has to look at it, because a guy like Dwayne Wade gets two shots whenever the PA-announcer looks at him funny which is a joke and Lin gets wrestled on the perimiter and they say 'play on'
When I saw JJ popping J's and playing scrappy D I just knew we were going to win...but Nola kept it consistant. I saw how both teams were feeding off of the Garden's energy. A healthy slice of humble pie from time to time is good for the soul.
This was a good lost for the knicks and a great win for Nola, lawd knows they needed it...
I truly love STAT, but do you believe that if he played, lets say, LAL, we would have won?
think about it
the Media and Hype has to GTFO!!!!they mess up everything... Lin must be under so much pressure... has him unfocused... and now Kim Kardashian slutty ass wants to take him out of his nba concentration even more
Lin just looked flat out exhausted at times. At first I really was afraid of Carmelo coming back, and even to an extent us signing Smith, but now I can't wait for Sunday to see them try and take off some pressure.
were not gonna win many games where the opposing teams cant miss and we cant buy a 3, regardless of either teams record. it would have helped if amare gave one iota of effort on the defensive end. i would love to hear tyson talk to him after games. if melo plays matador d were really screwed. i know with him its a matter of getting up for it but when he doesnt the offense is gonna have to be perfect. no jr or billy chucking, no 8 TO halves.

By Rick Homans, Cabinet Secretary for New Mexico Taxation and Revenue Department.
Editor's note: Freedom New Mexico Publisher Ray Sullivan discussed Web portals in his column in last Saturday's Quay County Sun. This is Rick Homans' counterpiece.
When an individual comes to the Motor Vehicle Division (MVD) to apply for a driver's license or a vehicle registration, we ask that person to entrust us with a lot of personal and confidential information: a Social Security number, birthdate, address and medical history. Subsequently, we add moving violations, citations and updated identity and medical information.
What many people don't realize is we are asked daily to release this personal information to all kinds of businesses and government agencies, including insurance companies, employers that hire lots of drivers, law enforcement agencies and courts, and reporters. Because so much of the information in our database is confidential and sensitive, there are strict state and federal laws that govern what we can release, and to whom.
MVD could process all these requests manually, and in accordance with the law, but the commercial users wouldn't be satisfied. They need the information right away and that requires a sophisticated and expensive database, with security features and payment options.
New Mexico taxpayers shouldn't have to foot the bill for this customized service. Instead, we have issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) to select an experienced database company to offer a user-funded Web portal. The portal will provide the option of immediate access, while adhering to strict state and federal privacy laws.
The primary law that governs what's private and what's public is the federal Driver's Privacy Protection Act (DPPA), and the accompanying state law. The law requires us to obtain written agreement from all "eligible users," not to release confidential information to others, and to use the information only for the use "authorized" by DPPA and the state.
On the other hand, the state's Inspection of Public Records Act governs the release of information. This act requires us to respond within 15 days to requests for public information, including driver and vehicle records. The law also requires us to withhold information that, by law, is considered "private." We charge 25 cents a page for this information.
For at least the last six years, the MVD has had in force contracts with six companies that purchase and resell personal data. These contracts expire this spring and cannot, by law, be renewed. The MVD transmits its entire database to these companies monthly, and updates them daily. We believe this arrangement is a ticking time bomb that could result in a major security breach — which would cause havoc to our primary customers, New Mexico citizens.
At the same time, we recognize commercial businesses must have timely access to this personal information — or else we could witness a major disruption of the insurance industry, or a public safety disaster because driver records couldn't be monitored daily.
With all this in mind, I am pursuing the following two-pronged strategy to provide access to public records.
l First, in regards to public records access, we will continue to follow the Inspection of Public Records Act. Even though we can, by law, charge up to $1 a page, we only charge 25 cents. We also accept e-mail requests. Some people have suggested

Clinch River Spawners
A question for you out there....
I have seen the TWRA reports that identify 4 potential spawning areas on the clinch. However, I have heard that part of the reason that spawning trout have been unsuccessful is because of the dramatic release schedules of TVA. I am curious since the drought this summer has limited the generation, and the clinch is running a more friendly schedule. Does anybody out there believe there is any possibility of a successful spawning class this winter?
Many factors affect what can be termed a limited spawn on the Clinch, I believe most are identified in the report you are talking about. Rainbows have more successful spawns than does the browns.
In earlier years before TVA started this recreational flow schedule that was generated in part by TU/TVA members in a effort to keep the lake level higher for tourism, more guide friendly flows and to keep the riffraff off the river on the weekends, Norris regularly got down to 985 or lower in the mid November to mid December time frame and there was limited releases during the spawning months. Thus those of us who have played close attention to the river for a long time can say there use to be a much more successful spawn than now.
This winter due to increased generation from Norris as there was more rain upstream here than there was in the other tributaries and the need to keep navigable waters in the Tenn. River, Norris is the lowest it has been in some time so unless there is large volumes of rain in Va. and none elsewhere Norris should hold near to where it is now and there is a good chance at a successful spawn this winter. However, if Norris fills over the winter months and there is a normal discharge in the spring it will be of no consequence as they will be washed away like the hundreds of thousands of the 2 in. fry TWRA threw in the river the past 5 years that they included in their stocking numbers that do not survive due to limited holding structure in the river.
Most of the creeks and springs have a run up them as well. Ironic one of the things LUCRO was trying to get TWRA to the table on along with the other user group was not only a more realistic and acceptable to all parties regulations based on the data and known results from previous stocking, but some regulations that would protect the bigger fish that run up the river and try to spawn anyway.
As a note you are aware that two of the spawning areas are heavily traveled through by fishermen
Have a good weekend
I have seen in the last week Redds formed on the left side of Millers and on the Right side of the island at the Weir dam. I have also noticed that the suckers/carp/buffalo, whichever is correct have been keeping up with the Browns. I have also noticed wuite a few BIG browns with beat up tails. I know the brownies are trying, but I don't think they will have too much luck due to fisherman stepping on redds and suckers vacuuming up the eggs. We could use some "no fishing" zones to protect the redds. I don't know how bad the sucker influence is...doesn't look good to me. I see more BIG suckers than I do Brown Trout!
Clinch River Spawning Grounds
Thanks for your replies guys. This brings up another question now. I had recently read somewhere about a TU chapter (in Idaho I think) creating spawning habitat by digging side channels and adding in stream structure and suitable spawning substrate. Has anyone out there heard of something similar to this or know if any projects like this has been attempted in any of TN's tailwaters. Even though I am a member of the Little River Chapter, I think I would be interested in seeing the details of where a project like this would be feasible in East TN. Of course without the cooperation of TVA it would be pointless.
Clinch no spawners
Info on why there is no spawner on the Clinch is in this report:

Historical author Herndon Williams will talk about his research including the following findings:
• The Reconstruction of the Refugio Mission in 1817. His talk accompanied by a physical model of the entire Mission compound.
• The appearance of this Mission has been of interest since there are no ruins, no sketches, no plans and no adequate descriptions in the historical record.
• Archaeological excavation by Msgr. Oberste and collaborators in Refugio in 1936 and follow-up digs by Jim Warren in 1995-1997 uncovered part of the Mission's foundation. But it was only in 1998-1999 when TxDOT excavated under Highway 77 that the footprint of the final church was revealed.
• Inventories made by the Franciscan missionaries at Refugio in 1796, 1802, 1817 and 1820 showed the evolution of the mission over its life and provided some architectural information. Then began the ferreting out of the design of the Mission at its zenith in 1817.
• The reality of the Mission compound in 1817 far exceeds the speculation and earlier models of the Mission. The Refugio Mission was the last major structure built by the Spanish in their Texas colony. It represents the end of an era and the abandonment of the dream of Karankawa civilization.
The meeting is open to the public. The Bayside Community Center is at 909 First St. in Bayside. The talk will be followed by refreshments, and a door prize.

India threatens to block global trade dealBy NEHA THIRANI BAGRI
The New York Times | July 26,2014AP Photo
Indian street vendors eat a meal before starting their days work in Allahabad, India. The food they eat - which is subsidized by the Indian government, is part of a global trade deal spat.MUMBAI, India India could put a landmark World Trade Organization deal in jeopardy at hectic negotiations in Geneva after saying that it would withhold support for the agreement unless there was simultaneous progress on resolving a dispute over its food security program.
India would like the WTO which set itself a deadline of July 31 for the deal on the movement of goods across borders to address its concerns over a cap on subsidies that could limit government stocks of grain that are part of its food program.
A meeting of the General Council, the WTOs highest nonministerial decision-making body, was suspended Thursday because of a lack of consensus.
Under an established schedule, an agreement on the first phase must be completed by July 31, when all of the 160 member countries would sign the measure, creating a protocol. A veto from the Indian government would disrupt that process.
The trade package, initially agreed on at a ministerial meeting in December in Bali, Indonesia, is the first comprehensive multilateral agreement reached by the organization since its inception in 1995. The agreement, aimed at streamlining global trade, would create legally binding commitments for all member countries to decrease red tape, upgrade border infrastructure and simplify customs procedures to ensure the easier movement of goods across international borders.
Proponents of the measure say that it would lead to the infusion of $1 trillion into the global economy and add 21 million jobs. Critics point out that developing countries would have to make a substantial investment to modernize their ports and borders.
The Indian government buys grain from farmers and stockpiles it for a public distribution system, in which it is sold at government-run stores at subsidized prices.
The National Food Security Act, introduced by the government last year, extended the subsidy to 75 percent of Indias rural population and 50 percent of the urban population. But WTO rules mandate that countries cannot subsidize more than 10 percent of grain produced for food, because doing so would distort the market for trade. India wants to eliminate that ceiling to maintain its food security program.
In the first week of July, India vetoed the trade agreement at a preparatory meeting in Geneva, saying that talks about finding a permanent solution to the subsidy issue were not progressing.
WTO members, including India, agreed in Bali in December to a temporary solution where developing countries would not be penalized for breaching their subsidy levels until a permanent solution was found by 2017, but the Indian government now wants immediate talks.MORE IN National / World BusinessNEW YORK Its not just the musical Hairspray that will air live on NBC tonight.

You may not be sure what kind of toys, or how many, your baby should have. It's likely that you hear conflicting advice that runs from one extreme to another! It's either: "Don't give your baby toys - he'll be spoiled," to "Give your baby lots of toys - they develop his brain." So…which is it?
Both sides of this debate have valid points. A baby does indeed learn from the things she plays with, and the more things she has access to, the more she can learn. With this in mind, many parents spend a fortune buying toys; however, many toys hold a child's attention for three or four days, only to be relegated to the bottom of the toybox or back of a shelf.
Babies learn about their world by using all five of their senses: sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch. Toys engage and refine these senses by:
Helping your baby learn how to control his movements and body parts
Helping your baby figure out how things work
Showing your baby how he can control things in his world
Teaching your baby new ideas
Building your baby's muscle control, coordination, and strength
Teaching your baby how to use his imagination
Showing your baby how to solve simple problems
Helping your baby learn how to play by himself
Setting the foundation for learning how to share and cooperate with others
Experts agree that babies need a variety of toys to enrich their lives and encourage learning. While your baby can learn from expensive store-bought toys, she can also learn from a crumpled piece of paper, a set of measuring spoons, an empty box, or a leaf. Everything is new and interesting to a baby, and if you open your eyes to the many wonders in our world, you'll see that you don't have to spend a fortune to keep your baby happy, interested, and learning.
What "home-grown" toys are best?
As you view the whole world as a bottomless toybox, here are some tips to consider:
Search for items of different weights, materials, textures, flexibility, sizes, shapes, colors, and smells. (Most store-bought baby toys are primary-colored plastic; that's why your metal keys on a leather key ring are so very appealing - they're different!)

Williamstown balloting: Reversal will take 199 votes
WILLIAMSTOWN When it comes to a proposed public safety building that was narrowly approved on Town Meeting Day and funding for an after-school program that was narrowly rejected, there is only one thing left for Williamstown residents to do: Vote again.
Town and school officials hosted a public hearing this week designed to clear up any lingering concerns about the two proposals the last bit of procedural business in the run-up to Mondays scheduled revotes.
The public safety building with the $2.5 million price tag dominated discussion during the more than two-hour hearing that featured a lot of questions, a little intrigue and one mathematical reality.
The questions ranged from the dimensions of the proposed building to the time frame for construction. The intrigue came in the form of a passing reference to an unsigned one-page flier found tacked to the posts of mailboxes around town. And the mathematical reality is one thing both items on next weeks ballot have in common.
To undo voters 298-283 approval of financing for the proposed public safety building, it will take at least 199 votes two-thirds of the number on the prevailing side on Town Meeting Day.
The bar is identical for those hoping to reverse voters 298-274 rejection of a plan to use $40,000 in surplus money to pay for the local share of the Onward after-school program. With the same number of votes on the prevailing side, it will again take 199 votes to alter the earlier result.
Turnout will be a key, and it is conceivable that a majority of voters could experience a change of heart when it comes to both requests but fall short of the number needed to change the results.
That explanation came at the end of Mondays hearing. It opened with the Select Board again making the case for the public safety building while trying to undercut some of the assertions in the mystery flier, which they briefly mentioned and which came in for criticism before the session ended.
One claim in the flier that the town-owned site on Meadow Street was never tested for contaminants despite a geotechnical evaluation that turned up two unidentified materials was never rebutted.
However, Selectman Rodney Graham sought to allay any concerns that the site, once home to a sawmill and a portion of the old Lacillade Lumber Co. operation, was contaminated.
There is no credible information whatsoever that there (are) any toxic substances in this area at all, he said.
Graham acknowledged two unidentified substances one whitish and one grayish were discovered less than 4 feet beneath the surface and that they had not been tested, nor had the site been evaluated for contaminants. However, he said, no fumes or vapors were detected when the borings were being conducted.
Graham said town officials had no reason to believe the location was contaminated, citing the porous nature of the soil and the fact the groundwater flows to the nearby Stevens Branch a tributary of the Winooski River that the state regularly tests in connection with the towns downstream sewage treatment facility.
That said, Graham explained the project budget includes money for additional testing if any suspicious materials are found during foundation work. He said if there is any contaminated material, a $200,000 contingency should more than cover the cost of disposal.
The flier distributed around town did not say there were contaminants on the site but indicated there could be and suggested the testing should have been done in advance.
Although the Select Board downplayed some of the questions and concerns in the flier, it did not question the accuracy of what one resident described as an erroneous piece of illegally delivered information that was spread throughout the town.
(It) has no basis in reality, he said, holding up the flier. I hope anyone who gets this realizes how ridiculous it is and doesnt base any of their decisions on any of this information.
Some residents spoke in favor of a project that one former firefighter said was long overdue given space constraints at the converted Depot Street garage that has served as the fire station since 1962.
Its time for a firehouse. Its an investment in the community, he said.
Resident Becky Watson agreed, describing Williamstowns emergency responders as local heroes and suggesting they deserve the state-of-the-art facility that town officials carefully planned over the past three years.
Watson said she believes residents approval of the project should be affirmed during daylong voting set for Monday at the current fire station on Depot Street.
I hope people really come out and vote, she said.
Absentee voting is already underway, and polls will be open at the fire station Monday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Graham said the public safety building proposal is worthy of support.
We believe weve put an efficient building designed for what we need with some allowance for future growth, Graham said. We dont think weve gone overboard on anything.
In a community with aging buildings and an aging and expanding population, Graham said the need for emergency services will increase and the current facilities have outlived their useful lives.
I think weve got the most favorable cost and the most favorable financing were probably ever going to get. If we invest the money now it will cost us less in the future.
Proponents of Onward the extracurricular program that will be on the ballot sounded a similar theme. They argued the program is partly responsible for participants measurable improvement in statewide testing.
The supervisory union-wide program, which has been funded for the past five years with a $200,000 grant from the state Department of Education, will require a greater local investment this year as schools are asked to pick up a larger share of the cost. The state has renewed the five-year grant but will be kicking in only $100,000. That, officials said, is why what has historically been a $3,000 appropriation in Williamstown was a $40,000 funding request this year.
The School Board opted not to include the program in its annual operating budget for fear the sizable increase could result in the failure of the school spending request. However, members, school administrators and some residents said they believe the program is valuable and are hopeful enough voters support the renewed request.MORE IN Central VermontMIDDLEBURY According to WebMD, Dystonia is a movement disorder that causes a persons muscles ...

My driving record isn't spotless. It's blemished, but nothing that requires a dermatologist. Or a lawyer.
You can count the blemishes on one hand.
My first offense happened when I was 18. It was nighttime, and some friends and I went to Mount Pleasant, Iowa, for pizza because you had to drive 10 or 15 or 20 miles to the next biggest town to eat dinner.
Mount Pleasant has a downtown square and I drove around it, but on the last turn, I did not notice the traffic light – the red one. But a sheriff's deputy did and he was right behind me. I got pulled over and pinched for a stoplight violation. Dang.
About 10 years later, I got another ticket for a stoplight violation, and the details of that one escape me. You remember that first ticket, but subsequent ones apparently fade with memory. And then there was a long pause, maybe 15 or 20 years, and I remember that one because I shouldn't have gotten a ticket for the stoplight violation in Woodstock.
It was after midnight and cold, and I was heading home after a long day at work. Often working late, I knew the nighttime timing of the stoplights between Crystal Lake and Harvard, especially the one at the intersections of Routes 14 and 47. And the light was still clearly yellow when I entered the intersection at 55 mph, but the Woodstock police officer saw otherwise. I was given a ticket for running a red light, and there's no arguing that, not with the police officer or a judge. Dang.
Three tickets. Three times I violated a stoplight.
The fourth ticket was five or six years ago, and it happened on Route 14 again, this time after midnight, just north of the Ridgefield Road stoplight, which was green. I just wanted to get home and I was driving too fast. Some months prior, the speed limit there was reduced by 10 mph. I had been driving that stretch of road for 15 or 20 years, and I did not notice the change. Especially when all I wanted to do was crawl into bed.
A Crystal Lake police officer had set a speed trap and I was snared. It didn't matter that I was tired and just wanted to get home, or that I was going only few miles an hour over the previously agreed upon speed limit. There was no getting out of my first speeding violation.
Dang cubed.
But in 40 years of driving, I had never been involved in a collision. I've come perilously close a few times, but I was spared by divine intervention or good defensive driving skills. I count my blessings.
"Never" ended Saturday morning.
I was driving to a seminary retreat at a church in Hyde Park, and I left with plenty of time to spare, just in case I happened to get lost. I get lost regularly, so I pad my schedule to take that into account. I lack sense of direction and get confused by left and right turns.
I was on Interstate 90, just before my exit onto Interstate 55 in Chicago. There are four or five lanes of traffic there, and all around me traffic was moving fast forward.
Everyone was going at least 45 mph. Except the car in front of me, which had either stopped or was creeping hesitantly along the tollway. And until seconds too late, I didn't notice what was going on, or not going on, as was the case.
I hit the brakes as hard as I could. The tires were squealing and the rubber was burning. I could see the smoke and smell the rubber. I could see ever more clearly the back end of the silver Toyota in front of me. All of this played out in an instant.
And we collided. No one was injured, and the damage to the cars was minor. But we were stopped in the middle of the tollway with cars zipping around us. Soon enough, an Illinois State trooper arrived, collecting driver's licenses and insurance cards and asking for a quick summary of what happened.
In due time, we were summoned to the squad car, and we were given our papers. And I was given a ticket for what I'm not exactly sure, other than being the last guy in the collision. She apologized and said I could tell it to the judge. Right.
Now, I have a handful of driving blemishes, the last one leaving a permanent ding in my internal bumper. Dang five times over.

Tusten in uproar over Narrowsburg School
July 9, 2014 —
NARROWSBURG, NY — At the Tusten Town Board meeting last night, about 100 citizens came to voice their opinion against the Narrowsburg School becoming a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center—and they did so loudly. Joan Buto, who won the bid for the school, made her first public appearance at the meeting, and she was met with many questions, criticisms and opposition.
Buto and her lawyer Bob Lander came to the meeting to assuage people's fears of the imminent rehab and to answer their questions. "After hearing the public outcry and concern, we thought it best to come here, Joan and I, to look you in the eye and explain what is going to happen," Lander said. "We are not going to be evil," he added.
Lander made a short presentation, saying that the future residents at the rehab would be there willingly and not mandated by the court. They would also be allowed to leave at any time and they would immediately be transported back to where they came from. They would not be allowed to roam the streets, and must stay in the facility at all times. If they must leave, the facility would have vans to take them to where they need to go.
Lander's presentation was met with shouting from some of the people in attendance. And when Buto got up to speak, there was even more shouting. Supervisor Carol Wingert frequently had to tell people to not speak when other people are speaking, and she said if they do they will be asked to leave. "You need to be polite and respectful," she said.
Buto said she wants to be a part of the community, and live and work here. She said their rehab facility in Florida, Changes, has two locations. One is an apartment building in a residential area, and the other is the medical facility located in a strip mall between a day care and a restaurant, and there have been no complaints. Citizens demanded documents, licenses, and names of people who live near the rehab so they can contact them. She said she will own and operate the rehab here, and that she is the sole buyer of the building and did not receive funding from investors. Buto also said they will have 24-hour security.
Narrowsburg resident Iris Helfeld prepared many questions for Buto, among them asking how Buto has had such success with the rehab in Florida in one year, has she conducted any research to determine how many Narrowsburg residents would be qualified to be employed at the rehab, which business would they support, and what makes the school ideal for a rehab?
In other news:
Tusten goes solar
Amidst the hullabaloo at the previous two town meetings, some good news emerged: the town board awarded the solar bid to Atlantech, which means Tusten will be the first municipality in Sullivan County to go solar. Supervisor Carol Wingert announced this at the meeting and it was met with applause.
From Brandi Merolla of the Tusten Energy Committee who was instrumental in getting the solar panels: "Two and a half years ago our volunteer committee vowed to reduce the carbon footprint of the town. We couldn't be happier to have found a solar company that met all of our requirements. The solar array will be mounted on town-owned land at no expense to the town.
In 25 years we expect to save the town approximately $634,000 on our electric bills for all town-owned buildings, facilities and streetlights. We are thrilled!"

Marla Jo Fisher
Late at night, I like to gather my children around me and tell them stories from the old days, back when guys wore belts to hold up their pants.
I have to explain the concept of belts, of course, and that pants also used to fit around the waist, which prevented them from sliding down guys' hips until they reached the earth's volcanic core.
Nowadays, as our 11-year-old friend Nico explains, boys must keep their hands in their pockets at all times to hold up their pants, since they are no longer fitted and belts can be found only in museums.
This has its advantages. Boys with their hands permanently immobilized in their pockets can't wipe grimy paws on my clean towels. They can't smack their sisters nor leave a dirty palm print on the wall.
Over the past year, Cheetah Boy's pants have fallen lower and lower on his hips, as if he were some poor starvation victim whose clothes are falling off him. But, of course, all that's happening is that he is refusing to wear any bottoms that don't display the tops of his boxers.
This just shows how much impact I've had on my kid's thinking. For years, I used to constantly point out "fashion victims," guys who were so obsessed with this gangster style that their pants actually fell down, or who had to hold their crotch as they ran, lest they trip over their falling pants and go head over heels.
Back in those days, we would all laugh at how silly these guys were, and how pathetic that they would allow their need to be trendy to interfere with the actual functioning of their lives.
When Cheetah Boy, now 14, first started letting his underwear show, I fought back.
We had Normandy-sized battles over his need to show plaid, i.e. the plaid designs of his cotton boxer shorts. Eventually, though, he wore me down with his persistent refusal to follow my rules.
So I gave up.
Amazingly, my surrender in the Battle of the Droopy Drawers became a clever strategy, instead of pathetic weakness. I read a slew of books about parenting teenagers, all of which advised me to pick my battles, and not to get into power struggles over fashion statements.
As long as my son is getting decent grades and has good behavior in other ways, I just decided not to care how ridiculous I think he looks.
Some of my friends have been shocked about this, as if I have suddenly become a traitor to parenthood itself. Maybe in their minds, I should be thrown in the stocks and flogged for high crimes and treason against other moms and dads.
"But, Marla, this style started in prison. Because the guys can't wear belts in there. It's a prison style," one friend argued. But as long as my kid is not in prison, I don't much care.
Even the cafeteria lady at school was laughing at Cheetah Boy and singing "Pants on the ground" to him one day when they were particularly egregious, according to his sister, who was a reliable witness.
But when I start questioning my decision, I remember what I wore when I was a teenager.
The skirts that were so ridiculously short that, if I dropped a pencil, I had to just keep walking, because there was no way I could pick it up without flashing everyone behind me.
The white lipstick that made me look like a corpse. The boyfriends with shaggy hair that drove their parents insane. The hot pants.
Oh, lord.
The hot pants.
Hmm, suddenly the low-rider shorts don't seem so bad after all.

There is so much controversy of the United States invasion of Iraq. Before and after 9/11 of the "Iraq/Afganistan war."
The costly 43 U.S. President and Vice President, clearly not getting anywhere.
Fox news anchor Megan Kelley was applauded in an interview with Dick Cheney and daughter Liz Cheney.
Kelley said rarely has there been a U.S. president been so wrong at the expense of so many and "you're the man that helped us into Iraq."
"You said in 2005 we would be greeted as liberators and the insurgents were in the last throes.
"You were so wrong, that we are making progress, but there is an outrage from U.S. citizens, saying, not a single person in America was more wrong and shamely dishonest as Dick Cheney."
Paul Waldman wrote in the Washington Post on June 18 a topic on Iraq, "Cascade of Misery and Death" of thousands of American soldiers costing trillions of dollars.
The chaos of unadulterated gall to come by the country and tell us it was somebody else's fault.
In October 2010, my wife and I drove to Washington, D.C., to visit the Pentagon and the Twin Towers.
I made a research on the 9/11 commission report, endorsed by George W. Bush; there is a list of hijackers all 15 are were Saudi Arabians, some trained to fly jets in Orlando, Florida.
Bush did fail to give a full disclosure of (1) He had ties to the 140 royal Saudia Arabian family to fly out via Florida, to Saudi Arabia without being interrogated by the FBI after 9/11.
(2) Bush had three FBI directors and three CIA directors in his eight-year term
(3) Why did Bush fire eight U.S. attorneys?
Was it because Colin Powell told him Iraq does not pose a threat to the U.S.? Was it because 16 intelligence agencies told Bush not to invade Iraq?
(4) How many barrels of oil are being shipped out of Iraq per day and how many barrels of oil does the Condoleezza Rice oil tanker carry
(5) The cost of rebuilding Iraqi homes and business buildings
(6) The cost of rehabilitating military veterans
(7) Amount of interest and years to pay off the money Bush borrowed from China
(8) Cost of civil lawsuits in Doe vs. Unocal 395 f.3rd 932 9th circuit court
(9) Twin Tower lawsuits vs. Bush et al, Dick Cheney, Condoleezza Rice, Donald Rumsfeld, Homeland Security
(10) Deficit in the U.S. Treasury after G.W. Bush eight-year term
(11) how many CEO's, war investors did Bush pay-off involved in the Carlyle group that manufacture weapons of mass destruction
(12) Necessary to give millionaires and billionaires the 12 percent Bush federal income-tax cut.

February 9, 2012 —
With Valentine's Day swiftly approaching, I continue to recuperate at home and ponder. Is it possible, I wonder, to send a Valentine to a place? How would I address it? "Dear Upper Delaware Valley" sounds strange, but is all-encompassing. "To whom it may concern" is a little too formal. If I could, I'd hire a sky writer to spread my message high above in the clouds, for all to see.
Delivery methods aside, I feel the need to express myself, and acknowledge how much I adore this region and the loving friends, neighbors and communities who have come out in droves to tell me how they all feel. Long after the pain subsides, I will always remember the incredible support and encouragement I have received along the way, for the wave of love is, well... unforgettable.
That song, written by Irving Gordon, reverberates in my head during the day, as I open the cards, read the emails and see the scores of posts on Facebook, wishing me a speedy recovery. Where else but the Catskills would this happen? Of course I have heard from friends everywhere (unforgettable, both near or far) but it is here, at home, that resonates the most.
Even though I am still unable to venture out into the world, it does continue to turn. I wish I could get to the Sullivan County Dramatic Workshop's (www.scdw.net [2]) "Evening with Irving Berlin—and More" on February 10, but alas! I won't make it, but you can. Call 845/436-5336 for details.
"Love is everything," a themed exhibit presented by Wurtsboro Arts Alliance (www.waagallery.org [3]) is opening on the 11th, and sounds like a great way to get in the mood for Cupid's special day. Undoubtedly, I'll be watching reruns of "Murder she wrote" and bemoaning my fate.
Across the county, "Be Mine" (this year, "Be Mine Always") is back at the Delaware Valley Arts Alliance (DVAA, www.artsalliance [4] site.org) in Narrowsburg and is always a fantastic (IMHO) ode to love, translated via poetry and art. The exhibit continues through the 18th of this month, but I still can't walk that much. The DVAA has presented this group show for a few years now, and it's consistently worth seeing.
The "chocolate indulgence party" and special Valentine's dinner at Aroma Thyme (www.aromathymebistro.com [5]) in Ellenville, NY sounds incredible (as Nat King Cole would say), but again, I'd have to sprout wings to make it. I trust some of you will and report back to me. My invitation to the Brookhouse Gallery (www.brookhousegallery.com [6]) arrived in a timely manner, and the opening reception on the 18th is bound to be memorable, but sadly, I have to decline.
As I peruse the many events, gatherings, shows and exhibits that celebrate love in the coming days, I can't help but feel an even stronger desire to recover as quickly as my broken body will allow and get back out there, traversing the countryside, basking in the glow that the Catskills emits.
Considering the overwhelming show of love and support that has washed over me during the last month, it would be impossible to respond on an individual basis, so I'm eternally grateful to have this column as a platform to say "thank you" to one and all. I read each and every note, letter, email and tweet (@jonathanfoxIMHO) during the day, and "like a song of love that clings to me, how the thought of you does things to me." I've stopped questioning what I could possibly have done to deserve all of this love and attention, and simply accept it as a gift of life from the community that I cherish.
I would be remiss if I didn't acknowledge a few special angels in my life, without whom I would not be writing this today. I love you all, but a special shout-out to Jamie Weisenecker, JoAnne Bitjeman, Lance Tursi, Cherise Barasch and Jackie D'abbraccio is in order. What these folks have done for me is staggering... dare I say "unforgettable, in every way—and forevermore, that's how you'll stay."
To the entire region-at-large... I'll always be thankful. This love letter is long overdue, and the postage alone would bankrupt me. Words fail me (who'd have thunk it) and I suddenly feel inadequate in expressing what I feel in my heart. While I remain flabbergasted by the love, I accept it gratefully. That's why, Catskills, it's incredible that a place so unforgettable—thinks that I am unforgettable too.

Secede Petitions Cover All 50 States, Over 660K Signatures
To answer the question right up front, no, this is most likely not a serious movement to secede. Certainly not in deep blue states like Brokeifornia (10,036 at time of writing), NY (12,806), and Massachusetts (107), among others. Most of the petitions are carbon copies of all the others. Heck, it took 5 minutes for me to create the Alaska one, and only because I forgot my login password and had to reset it. No, this is mostly people showing that this is still a Democratic Republic, and want the Obama admin to understand that the minority and their opinions matter, that Obama shouldn't ramrod his agenda down the throats of America
(Daily Caller) Less than a week after a New Orleans suburbanite petitioned the White House to allow Louisiana to secede from the United States, petitions from seven states have collected enough signatures to trigger a promised review from the Obama administration.
By midnight Tuesday, more than 660,000 digital signatures appeared on 69 separate secession petitions covering all 50 states, according to a Daily Caller analysis of requests lodged with the White House's "We the People" online petition system.
A petition from Vermont, where talk of secession is a regular feature of political life, was the final entry.
Remember back to 2004 when President Bush won and John Kerry lost, liberals were advocating secession of Blue states, along with referring to Red states as "flyover" states, flying the American flag upside down, and calling the Red states "dumbf*ckistan".
"Gov. Perry believes in the greatness of our Union and nothing should be done to change it. But he also shares the frustrations many Americans have with our federal government," according to a statement from the governor's office.
But, apparently the American Right isn't allowed to voice their concerns in the "progressive" United States.
A backlash Monday night saw requests filed with the White House to strip citizenship rights from Americans who signed petitions to help states secede. (RELATED: Anti-secession forces fight back with White House deportation petitions)
Progressives (read "fascists") hate when people other than themselves are accorded First Amendment Rights.
Certainly, some are serious. Others are blowing off steam. Most surely are tired of the massive Central Government trying to dictate everything from the fever swamps of Washington, D.C.

text: PITTSBURGH (September 14, 2012) – Scheduled passenger traffic at Pittsburgh International Airport (www.FlyPittsburgh.com) dropped 5.1 percent in July 2012 compared to July 2011, according to the Scheduled Airline Traffic Report, prepared by the Allegheny County Airport Authority. A total of 731,572 scheduled passengers were enplaned and deplaned at the airport for the month, compared to 771,270 scheduled passengers in July 2011 (731,572 in July 2012/771,270 in July 2011; 5.1 percent decrease). However, July was the sixth consecutive month of increased passenger traffic at Pittsburgh International Airport for JetBlue. The carrier, which operates 30 weekly flights to Boston and New York (JFK), has increased passenger traffic by more than 14 percent this year (161,811 through July 2012/141,629 through July 2011; 14.2 percent). Meanwhile, United, which directly serves all eight of its hubs from Pittsburgh, has shown a year-to-date increase of 1.6 percent (763,531/751,336; 1.6 percent). American (348,883/330,950; 5.4 percent) and Delta (841,595/828,713; 1.6 percent), which added six flights to New York LaGuardia in July also have year-to-date increases. "We are encouraged by the successes of JetBlue, especially on its Boston route, and United, which has reported increased passengers on its Los Angeles and San Francisco routes," said Bradley D. Penrod, Executive Director and CEO of the Allegheny County Airport Authority. Overall, year-to-date scheduled passenger totals show traffic down 3.1 percent (4,653,361/4,799,959; 3.1 percent). For July 2012, United reported the largest growth as its traffic grew 7.4 percent (129,815/120,856; 7.4 percent). Other airlines that reported increases were JetBlue (26,603/25,155; 5.8 percent) and Air Canada (4,899/4,762; 2.9 percent). Airlines which reported decreases in July were: US Airways (167,630/176,974; 5.3 percent); Delta (144,157/146,899; 1.9 percent); Southwest (140,751/146,569; 4.0 percent); AirTran (61,240/71,898; 14.8), and American (56,477/57,831; 2.3 percent). "Carriers have been tightening capacity across the system and traffic was down 0.4 percent nationwide in May for the first time this year," Penrod said.

Performance Definitions
ISAT and PSAE
The standard-setting procedure begins with the establishment of basic definitions of what students should know and be able to do at a given performance level. These are based on the Illinois Learning Standards that are measured by the Illinois Standards Achievement Test (ISAT) and the Prairie State Achievement Examination (PSAE).
Educators wrote performance definitions for reading, writing, mathematics, science, and social science for each of the following four levels: Exceeds Standards, Meets Standards, Below Standards, and Academic Warning. These draft performance definitions were then distributed throughout the state for review and comment. The resulting definitions were used as the foundation for determining the three cut points (Exceeds/Meets, Meets/Below, and Below/Academic Warning) for ISAT and PSAE during the standard-setting process.
ISAT Performance Definitions
PSAE Performance Definitions
- Reading
(This subject was assessed 2001 through 2004. Due to a July 2004 change in state law, the 2005 and 2006 PSAE assessed reading, mathematics, and science only. Writing was again assessed from 2007 to 2011 using a different PSAE test than was given 2001 through 2004. These writing performance definitions apply to the PSAE writing test from 2007 to 2011.)
- Mathematics
- Science

Have takeovers overtaken the customer?

Corporate buy-outs, buy-ins, mergers and alliances are all a normal part of the daily life of big business. But what effect do these have on our bank accounts and insurance policy terms?
Financial gobbledygook often clouds the relationship we have with banks and, in turn, our hard-earned money. Since Plain English Campaign started its fight against jargon, some organisations have brought plain English communication to their customers. As businesses must make sure their profits continue to soar, they must also continue to keep clear lines of communication open with their customers, even amidst potentially complex takeovers and mergers.

The versions were produced as a joint project with the team at Glasses Direct, their marketing agency Incredibull, and the editors at Plain English Campaign. This effort aims to give the public a better understanding of the details contained in their eye prescription so they can then use that information responsibly.

Well, Sex in the City I am not!
Nor am I the greatest scriptwriter, namely Phil, my hero.
But I am a scouser, and proud of it.
I love Liverpool and its people, and to be honoured by Liverpool's greatest university is beyond my wildest dreams.
I just wanted to be a beacon, a light of hope to those who, like me grew up believing they had nothing to give.
Have you any idea how exciting it is for someone, like me, with so little education to be standing here?
I had no early education and only learnt to read and write when I was 14.
My family lived in a slum and there was no welfare state then for a mother with six kids.
But, with God's help and a scouser's determination, I came to meet Harry Deveril, a Liverpudlian with a big heart who paid for me to go to night school.
Later, the guiding hands of the John Moores Foundation provided the expertise, advice, practical help, and unending encouragement that led me to found Plain English Campaign over 30 years ago. Plain English Campaign has become a respected, worldwide beacon for people struggling with the gobbledygook in public information that affects their daily lives.
Together with supporters of Plain English Campaign, we have built a global industry that started right here, like so many other great things, in Liverpool.
And, this awareness continues into the future with the recent plain English constitution produced by your university student's union.
So it's with pride and gratitude that I accept this honorary fellowship - a symbol of true friendship from this University.
I hope I can make you proud.
I survived poverty to make something out of nowt.
Imagine what dreams you can build with a degree.
Everyday I live my dream, and laugh as much as I can.
The world is yours - go get it - let your light shine bright.
