Report: Substation gate where boy injured lacked signs
SPRINGFIELD The Green Mountain Power substation in downtown Springfield where a 12-year-old Springfield boy was critically injured in May lacked warning signs on the gate where he entered.
But according to a report by a North Carolina consultant hired by GMP to evaluate the May 14 incident and the condition of the South Street substation, even if the warning signs had been properly in place, it wouldnt have changed the outcome of the incident, since there were numerous warning signs on the chain link fence surrounding the substation.
Although the placement of safety signs on the fence did not comply with the National Electrical Safety Code, it has been determined that one would be expected to see those signs when approaching the area of the fence where the boy gained entrance to the substation, concluded the report.
No fence design will prevent a determined person from entering a substation, it added for emphasis.
The report, conducted by Johnny B. Dagenhart, vice president of Clapp Research Associates of Raleigh, N.C., noted two deficiencies of the National Electrical Safety Code. That code was adopted by the Vermont Public Service Board in 1983.
Ian Treadway, 12, spent more than a month in Boston hospitals recovering from his severe burns from the incident. According to the report, Treadway could have received the burns from either touching energized equipment or just coming too close to it.
In an earlier interview by the Rutland Herald with Treadway, he said he never touched the energized electrical equipment even as he was climbing a structure within the substation, which the report said supported bus work and transformer fuses for 46,000-volt circuitry.
Treadway said he got into the substation by wriggling between the two gates, not climbing over the fence, as the report stated. The report said there was a gap of approximately 4.5 inches between the two gates.
Treadway, a student at Riverside Middle School, is recovering from his burns and is back living with his family at their Merrill Street home a short distance from the substation.
Greg White, GMP vice president for field operations, said it was possible that the arcing burned Treadway if he came within 1.4 inches of the energized equipment.
White said that the day after the South Street substation incident, GMP launched a review of all its approximately 185 substations throughout the state and made some improvements, including at the South Street station.
In addition to the lack of warning signs directly on the gate, clearances on the substations lightning arresters were less than called for in the code. The bottom of the lightning arrester is supposed to be 8 feet 6 inches, but was only 7 feet. Also, the top of the lightning arrester was requested to be 9 feet 10 inches but was only 9 feet 2 inches.
While these two requirements (signs and clearances) were not met, meeting these requirements likely would not have prevented the accident, Dagenhart wrote.
White said GMP was making changes at the Springfield substation, including a video surveillance system. New warning signs went up immediately at the station after the incident, he said.
The report noted the substation is near a town park and that there are paths leading from the park and playground to the substation. Vehicle access is blocked by a locked gate off Merrill Street.
We are re-signing all of our substations, said White. In addition to video surveillance, there will be an alarm system that allows the companys control center to immediate de-energize equipment, once an intruder is detected.
White said the electrical fault, which caused a lengthy power outage in a large area surrounding Springfield, did not cause any physical damage to the system. He said the company would be making sure the public understood the dangers of substations.
Dorothy Schnure, spokeswoman for Green Mountain Power, said the company and its consultant did not interview Treadway for its report, saying they did not want to further traumatize him.
Its huge to all of us that hes going back to school, she said, noting the company was focusing on preventing anything like this again.
Schnure said that in her 30-plus years with Green Mountain Power, nothing like this had ever happened before.
The most important thing is that Ians doing well, she said.

First, read your breast pump instructions. Always wash hands well with soap and water before handling the product. Assemble the kit. Attach the kit to the pump. Center the breast flanges over your nipples. Press them lightly against your breasts to make an air seal. If you are pumping with a double milk collection kit, see the photo of double pumping with one hand. By holding the flanges this way, you will have a hand free to start your pump. (If you want to single pump, just close off one of the adapter ports as instructed in the instructions for use.)
Ameda Purely Yours®/LactalineTM-Turn the suction dial to the right to turn on the pump
Ameda EliteTM-Turn the vacuum dial to the right to turn on the pump
Ameda Platinum®-Push the power button on
Set SUCTION/VACUUM to the highest setting that feels comfortable and no higher. The strongest pump suction does not always pump more milk. You can increase the suction as your milk starts to flow and you become used to the pump, but remember pumping should never hurt. Your body does not release milk well when you are in pain.
Set SPEED/CYCLES to the fastest setting when you start pumping to stimulate your breasts to release oxytocin, which causes a milk ejection reflex (let-down). This release causes milk to be squeezed out of the alveoli, into the ducts and out of your nipple into the flange.
Once the milk is flowing, slow down the SPEED/CYCLES to keep the milk flowing. When the milk flow slows to a trickle or drip, return to the fastest setting until you trigger another milk ejection reflex, then slow the SPEED/CYCLES down again. This fast/slow pattern can be repeated several times to help drain your breasts.
Keep in mind that a baby sucks like this when she is breastfeeding-sucks fast to get the milk flowing, then slows down her suck to draw the milk out and drain the breast.
The Milk Ejection Reflex is the process in which the hormone oxytocin causes glandular tissue or alveoli in the breast that stores milk to squeeze, causing the stored milk to low into the ducts that transport milk, and out of your nipples.
If you are pumping with a manual pump like the Ameda One-Hand Breast Pump, you can do the same by using both fast and slow squeezes. Again, watch your milk flow and use it as your guide. Instead of double pumping, you will be single pumping (one side at a time). Change which breast you are pumping every 5-7 minutes for a total of 20 to 30 minutes.
This is general information and does not replace the advice of your healthcare provider. If you have a problem you cannot solve quickly, seek help right away. Every baby is different. If in doubt, contact your physician or healthcare provider.

Blake Annen, Cincinnati
Blake Annen could have transferred from Cincinnati after Brian Kelly, the coach who recruited him out of Upper Arlington, left for Notre Dame in 2009.
Annen could have left in 2010 when he did not play a down, in 2011 when he was buried on the depth chart at tight end and last season after coach Butch Jones left for Tennessee and Tommy Tuberville was hired.
There also was the issue of the Big East dissolving, with Syracuse, West Virginia and Pittsburgh leaving and Cincinnati becoming part of the byproduct American Athletic Conference.
Despite his football world seemingly blowing up on a yearly basis, Annen chose to stay. He is a fifth-year senior.
"Tim Hinton was my recruiter for the Columbus area when I was at Upper Arlington, and to this day I remember what he told me," Annen said. "Coach Hinton said, 'If you didn't play football, would you still go to Cincinnati for your education?'
"I said yes, I would. I love this school, the city, the fans and this campus. I came here to play football, but also for everything else. I've learned that life is about transition and how you handle it."
Perseverance has paid off many times for Annen. He has 13 catches for 168 yards and two touchdowns in starting eight of nine games for a team that is 7-2 overall and 4-1 and a half-game behind Central Florida in the AAC.
It is possible for Annen to get a fourth conference championship ring. The Bearcats have games remaining against Rutgers, Houston and Louisville.
"I've got three big championship rings sitting in a drawer at home, and I want another," he said. "I'll wear the rings out on occasion to a big dinner. Each one tells its own story for me as an individual and as a member of a team."
Annen will be just as proud receiving a degree in organizational leadership next month. He could put having to deal with his experiences in football on his résumé.
This year alone, Annen has had to overcome freshman offensive lineman Sean Van Dyke being killed in a car crash and quarterback Munchie Legaux suffering a gruesome, season-ending knee injury.
"And I'm on my sixth position coach," Annen said. "I roll with the punches. … All I can control is playing and trying to win on Saturday.
"I do think we are a tough team mentally. Whatever happens on and off the field, we think we can handle it. … When you are younger, you don't understand the drive you need to play at such a high level each week."
That drive was on display when Annen caught his first collegiate touchdown pass in a 42-7 victory over Purdue in the season opener. The 15-yard play was spectacular.
"It was really special because a lot of my family was in town, and it was against a Big Ten school," he said. "I got flipped and lost my helmet. I popped up from the ground and saw the student section cheering. I can't describe the feeling. … I always will remember that play."
Others to watch
• Brett Buehler, Cornell: The senior linebacker from Dublin Coffman leads the team in tackles with 89.
• Winston Thomas, Wittenberg: The sophomore backup defensive back from Olentangy has 14 tackles and one interception.
• Antonio Turner, Wilmington: The senior receiver from Gahanna has caught three passes in playing four games.

There's nothing quite like the honor of a military jet flyover.
The sheer power thundering in the skies can shake you to the core.
But the Hawaii Air National Guard broke the bad news to the city last week: Don't plan on a flyover for this year's Memorial Day service.
"We just got a request in today, from a veteran's organization in Maui. Normally they like to have a flyby too, for Memorial Day. That's not looking very optimistic," said, public affairs officer Lt. Col. Charles Anthony.
War veterans are lamenting the loss of what has become a longstanding tradition.
"It's sad, because we have to honor those who went before us and died for our country, yeah," said Bay Watanabe.
Watanabe, a member of the American Legion, the largest Veterans organization in the world, helps to give tours at Punchbowl Cemetery.
"I like doing it because I like to give back to those who didn't come back, " Watanabe said.
This Memorial Day he plans to attend ceremonies at the State Veteran's Cemetery in Kaneohe where many of his friends are buried.
But others who make the trip to Punchbowl for the pomp and circumstance may miss what many consider a key ceremonial element.
Event planners are checking whether other aircraft could stand in for the jets, but it's a big "if."
At this point, the city says it is exploring all its options. But Memorial Day is just two months away.
The Guard also usually fills requests for a military jet flyby on Veterans Day and for Dec. 7 at the Pearl Harbor Arizona Memorial, but there's no word on the fate of those just yet.
In order to maximize resources, the flyovers are tied to training, but with the budget woes handing overhead, a bigger concern over its air defense mission is looming.
"With the flight hours cut, it is going to be tougher and tougher for our pilots to maintain their proficiency," said Anthony.

"I'm dumbfounded," said Mayor David Carabajal, who insisted the investigation involve all council members. "There's more to this n Loss of water for an estimated 15,000 people.
• Economic losses, as yet untallied, to area motels and restaurants.
• Partial activation of the Emergency Operations Center for the first time.
• The city to issue a second boil order in as many months.
• Beeville schools to close — with a resultant loss from state attendance funds and purchase of bottled water.
• Concern that the fire department's ability to fight a major fire was diminished.
• Christus Spohn Hospital to cancel surgeries and to transfer dialysis patients to out-of-town hospitals and treatment centers.
• A communications breakdown in which plant operators kept forecasting a return to water service in hours when it took days.
"It was a perfect storm," Carabajal said.
Unlicensed operator
That the plant was under the control of an experienced, but unlicensed, operator lends credence.
When asked if the operator of a water treatment plant was required to be licensed, Interim City Manager Marvin Townsend paused for almost 10 seconds before replying that "there's no simple answer to that. Yes, it is a requirement, but what is the option, shut the plant down?"
The Texas Administrative Code, formulated by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) — which grants and regulates water treatment plant licensing — states that "Any operator employed by a public water system operations company must hold a license."
Beeville Water Supervisor Michael Lentz told the council that the operator "had let his license slip."
"To be honest with you, we have a lot of turnover," explained Beeville Utility Systems Director Cesario Vela. "It's real hard to get people to stay here because of the pay."
Vela and Lentz cited competition from Corpus Christi and the Eagle Ford Shale. "People who come here, we get them qualified and then they leave because they can make more money elsewhere. Obviously, we need to change that."
Council skeptical
Carabajal didn't buy it. "The people we put in charge of that water plant? Why did they never bring their concerns before the council?"
And Councilman Trace Morrill was skeptical. "You know," he said, "if that's the case, I would like to see that in writing."
Neither Carabajal nor Townsend could definitively say whether the violation of state law left the city vulnerable to litigation.
Nor could Morrill, who tried to keep the exchange at the council meeting from escalating.
"I'm not familiar with the licensing requirements," he said, "but there are grave concerns about how the city got to a situation where we didn't have water. It is something the city has needed to face for quite some time. It shows how dramatic the impact is on the community at large."
Morrill's view was longer term. "If something like this occurs again, I hope the investigation will result in policies and procedures in place to let everybody know to lessen the blow. The city did not adequately apprise citizens of the severity of the problem."
That investigation is on hold, pending the completion of a timeline of events being compiled by Townsend.
"I started working in community government 22 years ago. This is the first time I have had to handle an entire city without water," he said, "and I've only been here five weeks."
On his wall is a nine-square-foot list of projects needing attention at the treatment plant. A number are colored red, signifying urgent.
He hopes to submit a completed report on the failure in about three weeks.
As investigators of airline crashes know, a traumatic event such as a city's loss of water isn't the result of a single, catastrophic incident but the consequence of a series of events that cascade into an emergency.
"This isn't one event," Townsend said.
Timeline of events
To back-time the events from an operator dumping too much of a wrong chemical into the Swinney Switch tanks to their beginning, Townsend told the council, is to go back more than 20 years.
In 1994, the Corpus Christi civil engineering firm Urban Engineering — still under contract with the city — drafted a 23-page preliminary report on suggested improvements to Beeville's water treatment facility.
It suggested a three-phase improvement plan, costing $3.7 million, to assure the plant could adequately provide the city's future water needs.
The city did not act on the report. Its more than a dozen recommendations, Townsend told the council, are just as valid today.
Among them: utilize existing water wells in case of an emergency and the construction of a reverse-osmosis facility to remove salt from those wells. Twenty years later, existing and extra wells are under consideration; last year, voters turned down a bond issue for the RO plant.
As luck — or fate — would have it, a six-person team of TCEQ investigators, examining the plant's records of a turbidity problem in 2010, was at the Swinney Switch plant when last week's crisis began.
It immediately dropped their investigation to assist plant operators coping with the crisis.
Scathing report
On Dec. 6, the team issued a four-page scathing report, listing 43 criticisms of the plant, its operation and city administrators.
Among them:
• The city's focusing on cost savings instead of needs of the plant.
• Administrators not visiting the plant.
• No actions taken by the city to address the plant's unacceptable conditions.
• Plant operators have failed to plan for necessary maintenance.
• No emergency response plan to address unusual conditions or events.
• Lack of routine meetings among utility supervisors.
• Procedures do not ensure communications between the staff during shift changes.
• Plant operators do not consistently document their activities — which will hamper Townsend's attempts of formulating a complete timeline of last week's crisis.
• Lack of a formal protocol of elevating unresolved plant concerns from the plant manager to the city.
• The city not notified of equipment failures and poor plant performance.
• High turnover rate.
• Improperly certified operators.
• Inadequate staff training.
• Inadequate alarms on the plant's automation system.
• Plant operators responding incorrectly to unexpected or unusual situations.
• Procedures for collecting samples, conducting monitoring tests and calibrating lab equipment are outdated, inaccurate or nonexistent.
• Procedures for shutting down the plant in an emergency are outdated, inaccurate or nonexistent.
• Lack of preventive maintenance.
• Inadequate staffing.
In the report's 43 points, the word "not" appears 22 times.
Employee fired
Not surprising, then, that last week an employee with a class D license — the lowest grade, requiring high school graduation, no experience and a basic 20-hour water course — against regulations, policy and a direct order, dumped a chemical into one of the water tanks, effectively bringing the whole system to a clogging halt.
That employee, who had worked at the plant for about four years and who has not been identified, was fired.
Normally, water at the plant is brought into tanks from Lake Corpus Christi. It is treated to reduce its turbidity, or the amount of particles floating in the water.
This is accomplished by injecting small amounts of a polymer — about a teaspoon full. The chemical helps the particles cling to each other, helping them sift to the bottom.
The operator dumped a gallon jug of the polymer in the tank.
Water in the tanks, normally clear of the particles, then goes into four tanks where gravity forces the water through a filter. After four hours, at the other end, is water clear enough to drink.
But the overabundance of polymer created a sludge the filters, designed to handle almost clear water, could not handle, like trying to force heavy tar through a funnel.
Each filter is required to be cleaned, or back-washed, about every 100 hours.
This is accomplished by taking clean water stored at the plant and forcing it, bottom to top, in the tanks. The procedure is supposed to take less than an hour.
Suddenly, plant operators were having to stop pumping any water to the city because it was needed to backwash four filters simultaneously.
Clean water is piped 18 miles from Swinney Switch to the city's tanks — via a single pipeline.
But, not during the backwashing.
Finally, when water again could be pumped to Beeville, two critical factors intervened to prevent it from reaching residential faucets.
A number of water main breaks occurred over that weekend, including a substantial break on a pipe supplying water to the prisons adjacent to Chase Field.
Antiquated equipment
Another factor is the antiquated, 1970s analog equipment at the plant.
"Do you know what I've inherited?" plant worker Sig Walters asked the council. "It's a mess out there that you have no idea about. I've got mercury switches out there to control the levels in my tanks. Do you know how old that technology is? If I throw a switch to do something at one of the city's in-town tanks, it takes eight minutes for the system to tell me whether a valve has opened or not. Everything is band-aided."
It gets worse. Plant operators, whether they have the proper licenses or not, have no way of knowing how much water is in the town's tanks.
So, although the Swinney Switch plant was pumping water full-bore to the city, operators had no idea that much of it was leaking through the water main breaks, or that over the Thanksgiving weekend, the water level in the city's tanks had dropped to almost nothing and that no matter what they pumped to the tanks, they couldn't keep up.
Full tanks, incidentally, guarantee an adequate supply of water for only one day.
Hence, what Carabajal termed a communications "disconnect." Seeing how much water they were pumping to the city, plant operators assumed the city's water pressure only was lower than normal and that soon the pressure would return to normal and the tanks would be topped — unable to know that the tanks were dry and hundreds of residents were calling the police asking why there was no water at all.
Staff praised
Vela has nothing but praise for his staff in trying to cope with the emergency. Lentz, for instance, was on the job for 37 hours straight. He was hospitalized after suffering a mild stroke.
"I have no reason to believe that all the parties involved were not doing everything in their power to get the power back, and doing what they thought was right," Morrill said.
Vela resents what he sees as some people trying to obtain political advantage with the emergency by blaming the council. "I hate that. I don't think that's right. Something happened and we dealt with it."
However, in responding to the TCEQ report about the lack of licensed operators, Vela said that he has ordered "all operators…to be trained in all areas of surface water operations and sent to TCEQ certified training classes." While attended certified TCEQ classes may suggest the acquisition of a license, his answer does not specifically require a license.
The TCEQ, Townsend said, has assured Carabajal and Townsend full cooperation in adjusting water treatment policies and procedures to prevent a similar water failure from ever happening again.
Carabajal said last week's crisis could spur voters to approve a bond issue to upgrade the facility. If not, he suggests, the council might acquire funds through certificates of obligation that do not require voter approval.
"Water is critical to our survival. This is not something we can do without. This is it. Business won't survive. Who is going to want to invest in Beeville if we can't secure water for them?

For some reason that seems unrelated to the health and well being of children in Wisconsin, Governor Walker has decided to write into his proposed 2013-15 state budget language that would eventually cause 29,000 children to lose coverage. We disagree with the proposal.
First of all, the proposal would roll back protections guaranteed for children under an agreement reached last year between the State Department of Health Services and the federal government. Second, the proposal has no impact whatsoever on the next biennial budget as it would take effect in 2019 if it is still allowed under federal health reform. So why is it in this budget? What's the rush? If it's a good idea let it withstand the scrutiny two years of review would offer. The way it is it looks like yet another example of Walker's penchant for putting national political ideologies ahead of what's best for the citizens of Wisconsin.

The apartment really is great. It is clean and exactly as in the pictures, Jason was very friendly and offered his help, we didn't need it though since we knew our way around. The apartment is in an Asian neighborhood, which was totally fine though as it is a safe area. Coming home late at night wasn't a problem at all. The Queens mall is just a 10 minute stroll away and the closest subway station only 5 minutes with an easy access to the city centre. All in all we can only recommend it and would definitely make sure to get the same apartment again for our next visit to NYC.
Excellent! We stayed here as a couple as the city was out of our price range. We really liked the accommodation, had everything you need. Jason was very helpful. It is in a very Asian populated area but we enjoyed it and loved all the authentic food in Elmhurst. Felt very safe at all times and only a very short walk to the subway. The only thing I would say is that if you are a light sleeper it is quite noisy with the subway and also on our last night the people staying upstairs made an absolute racket until after 2am which was very annoying as we had an early flight and didn't manage to get any sleep. Other than that we had no issues and would recommend!
Even better than expected.Jason is a great host and very helpful. This place is very close to the subway and you get to downtown quickly.also lots of real good street food places nearby tasty and low budget. I was there with 2 kids and it was great. Highly recommended
Stayed here with two friends for nine nights. Couldn't ask for anything better. With a fully equipped kitchen and bathroom to start off your day. Close to the subway station and convenience stores.
And you could always easily contact Jason, if any problem should occur.
Should I come back to N.Y., I would choose this place again.
We have very much enjoyed our stay with Jason. The apartment is spacious and fully equipped, including a LCD screen and computer, while the bathroom was clean and has a nice shower. The location is very near the Elmhurst Av subway station, with fast connections to Manhattan (20 minutes) and the neighborhood is friendly with several very nice places to enjoy Asian food. Finally, Jason took very good care of us during our stay.
The apartment is located near the lively Broadway street with a lot of Asian shops and restaurants. It is close to a rail with little traffic. Moreover some airplanes taken off from LGA across the sky over the area. Nevertheless Cornish Avenue is a quiet and safe street and we slept comfortably.
The "local trains" subway is near, about 3 minutes walk and from there you can arrive at Times Square in about 30 minutes. Alternatively, to reach Manhattan more quickly, 2 bus stops away (by Q53 bus) there is Jackson-Roosevelt metro station where many "express trains" stop.
The apartment was clean and looked larger than on the photos. It is very well equipped: kitchen with all accessories, bathroom with tub shower combo and hairdryer, bedroom with air conditioner and big and comfortable beds, living room with air conditioner, a big LCD tv and a PC. A good wifi connection is available.
Unfortunately we haven't meet Jason but he was always reachable if needed. He allowed late checkout and he called and scheduled a taxi for us.
Thanks again Jason!
Jason was very friendly and dedicated. The room was clean and looked like on the fotos. It was a nice stay. We would always come back again.
Our stay in te apartment was really comfortable, Jason was waiting for us upon our arrival and gave us all the directions needed to have a pleasant stay.
The apartment was exactly the same as in the pictures, nice and clean.
I would definitely recommend Jason's apartment for a nice stay in NYC.
This place is wonderful! Jason is an excellent host, very kind and attentive. The apartment / neighbourhood is very safe and clean, with all the things you can need. We recommend Jason´s properties to everyone!
Thank you, Jason, we felt as if we were at home! :-)

In late 20th century musical theatre, few moments resonate more gloriously than the Act One finale of Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine's "Sunday in the Park with George." Painter Georges Seurat intones his mantra of "Order, design, tension, balance, harmony." The characters gather into a tableau vivant of his pointillist masterwork, "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte," which we have watched him painstakingly put together dot by radiant dot.
Glorious, too, describes the Short North Stage production of the 1983 musical, under the direction of Lapine's niece Sarna Lapine, with musical direction by Nils-Petter Ankarblom.
Matt Clemens gives Georges a delicate balance of artistic distance and whimsical engagement, particularly as he converses with the dogs in his painting in "The Day Off." Laura Griffith makes for an engaging and mischievous Dot, Georges' model and mistress. The two blend voices powerfully in Sondheim's often bittersweet harmonies. Columbus stage veteran Linda Dorff showcases her own voice as Georges' doddering mother in "Beautiful," a wistful duet with Clemens.
Mikiko Suzuki MacAdams' modular set extends the imagery of Seurat's painting in parts of the first act and transforms into a modern museum for the second. Terese Wadden's costumes evoke those of the painting and, during the title song, even provide a delightful little surprise for those who haven't previously seen the play.
With its off-stage but on-the-money six-piece orchestra, Short North Stage has given Columbus a "Sunday in the Park with George" you might call picture perfect.

Hi Kate!
I was reading your thread to Luke's Mom about burping. My son has gained 5lbs in 6 weeks and is having extreme problems with burping lately. I read your info to her and I'm thinking I'm having oversupply but I don't spray milk or have any sensations while letting down... so I never thought I had much in there.
My question is, do you know if burp troubles can be caused by diet or is that just lower gas? I can't see how burps are, considering they are air taken in while eating, but maybe I'm wrong? I had some dairy the other day and I've been paranoid that I've caused him worse burp troubles.
What causes burps? I think he's latched well... I don't know.
My son has 2-3 burps per eating and I never get them all, especially when he falls asleep. If I interrupt him while eating, he freaks out, but if not, he ends up screaming later in the day and I whack about 6 burps out of him while he's screaming. Poor guy.
Thanks for your help.

Wedding Singer™ font family
Designed by George Ryan in 2010
Get ready for Christmas
Get ready for Christmas:
Pictograms and fonts for all situations
It's nearly that time of the year again and over the next few weeks you will most probably be using Christmas-related symbols and typefaces on greetings cards sent out to friends and business partners or to embellish Christmas-time offers for your customers. There is a huge range of choice, from classic and traditional through playful and unusual to modern and ironic. You will also need fonts that complement the images to provide for overall consistency of your designs.
In the following, you will find a selection of what we consider to be effective combinations of pictograms and typefaces that will ensure that you can put your Christmas message across successfully.
Dans le Noël + Wedding Singer
The pictograms of the Dans le Noël dingbat family by Guisela Mendoza will provide you with a basic set of Christmas symbols. It includes stars, Christmas trees and tree ornaments, a selection of gift tags and other decorative elements. The robustly defined graphic forms are not only redolent of Yuletide but also evoke a cheerful atmosphere.
A stylistically matching font is Wedding Singer. Although Wedding Singer was originally conceived by George Ryan for use on wedding invitations, the almost monolinear glyphs with their sturdy but yet celebratory character and somewhat relaxed feel harmonize perfectly with the Dans le Noël symbols.
Jingle Doodles + Meroe
The relatively thick strokes and irregular outlines of the symbols of Gert Wiescher's Jingle Doodles give them a simple but very dynamic appearance. The images are relevant to the whole Advent and Christmas periods, and include candles, pine branches, holly leaves, boots, fish and even a church. The dynamic calligraphic font Meroe by Peter Becker duplicates the rough outlines of Jingle Doodles. The cavities in the strokes and the elegant personality make Meroe the ideal partner to the symbols and will add supplementary atmosphere to your designs.
Xmas Font + Monotype Script
Well-defined contours and forms that are often reminiscent of cartoon drawings are the main features of the symbols of Xmas Font by Fuenfwerken Design AG. The pictograms of Xmas Font are organized in three groups, each containing more than 60 dingbats. Xmas Essentials consists of the standard symbols relevant to the end of the year season, such as stars, snowflakes, candles, decorated Xmas trees and nutcrackers. Xmas Story provides images suggestive of the New Testament narrative of the birth of Jesus. There is an adorable Baby Jesus, a Mary and Joseph and whole bands of angels and shepherds with corresponding woolly, Holy Land sheep. The symbols of Xmas Modern provide a more tongue-in-cheek take on the season. For example, there is a melting snowman with candle in his hand, a snowman wearing sunglasses on a skateboard, another in Bermudas and others with electronic gadgets such as mobile phones or IPods to give your Christmas designs a somewhat differently slanted effect. And you will even find a urinating snowman among the Xmas Modern dingbats. The compelling and slightly curvilinear characters of the calligraphic font Monotype Script suit the clear style of these pictograms. Without being obtrusive, the font has an elegant feel that conjures up a cheerful holiday spirit.
Linotype Festtagsfont + Koorkin
The symbols of Linotype Festtagsfont by Sine Bergmann are delicate and almost linear. The protagonist of these pictograms is a little black figure like a matchstick man. He is shown unpacking gifts, delivering compliments of the season and as a jet-propelled angel. The dingbats of Linotype Festtagsfont are not only appropriate to Christmas, but also to Halloween and Easter. Pictograms of Christmas trees, candles and presents are accompanied by flowers, pumpkins and ghosts. Similarly easygoing and casual is the typeface Koorkin by George Ryan. This energetic calligraphic font with its comic-like traits is thus the perfect pendant to Linotype Festtagsfont.
Has our article whetted your appetite to discover additional Christmas-themed typefaces? If so, you can simply use our search engine to find more pictograms and text fonts that are full of the Yuletide spirit.

By Argen Duncan: PNT staff writer
Long waits and frustrating automated call systems with the state Motor Vehicle Division could be on their way out, according to the state official overseeing the division.
Secretary of the Taxation and Revenue Department Rick Homans was in Portales on Wednesday to explain plans to put many MVD functions online, streamline office operations and update call center technology.
"What we want to create is as many options as possible for our customers to do business with us," he said.
Portales MVD office manager Terry Encinias was optimistic about the intended changes.
"I just think it's going to be good," she said.
Encinias said the online services would be particularly helpful in Portales because many people from Eastern New Mexico University and Cannon Air Force Base don't want to come to the office and wait.
A proposal to use substitute clerks when regular clerks are out of the office would also help, she said, because the office only has three employees and many people come in around lunchtime, when some clerks are on break.
In the next few days, Homans said, he expects to sign a contract with the company NIC USA to establish an online platform for citizens to conduct business with the MVD.
"We don't have anything like this right now," he said. "So a big move over the next few years will be to move all the services we can online."
Homans expects the site to be running with some services by October or November.
The Web site is to allow customers to handle vehicle registration, order personalized license plates and make appointments for driver tests.
Also, the Web site will allow the sale of drivers' license and records information online, as privacy laws allow, Homans said. Detailed laws dictate who can have what information for what purpose, he said.
Businesses such as insurance companies and those that employ a lot of drivers want that information quickly, he said, and safeguards will protect data from people not legally allowed to have it.
Other changes are also planned, all designed to make MVD "work for our customers," the agency reports.
In field offices, planned improvements include instituting express lanes for simple transactions and having temporary workers fill in when clerks are absent or on their staggered lunch breaks from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. At that time, Homans said, customer volume is the highest, and people see a big line and one clerk.
"They're inconvenienced," Homans said.
Homans also wants to collect customer e-mail addresses to automatically communicate information about expiring vehicle registration.
Changes will be implemented in phases to keep wait times from getting too long while employees are learning new procedures, he said.

This Forum is U.S. OnlyArmament and Munitions Forum ObjectivesForum:The purpose of the 2013 Armament and Munitions Forum is to emphasize the importance of a government/industry partnership focused to maintaining readiness and technology/system innovation during times of budget constraints and uncertainty. The forum will address key system and technology segments and provided opportunity to share and discuss challenges and opportunities during this period. Topics focused to the evolution of the industrial base will also be addressed.
Small Arms Systems:Facing terrorist forces from military operations on urban terrain to the open battlefield, American forces - both military and law enforcement require state of art and best equipment. In a time of program uncertainty and budget constraints the ability to realize technology and system innovation while also maintaining readiness requires that the government/industry partnership works together to maintain capability. The focus must remain on enhancements to legacy small arms systems, and innovation in new capabilities including weapons, ammunition, fire control, and other supporting resources. Special attention to unmanned platforms and digitization of the battlefield will address a vision to the future.
Guns, Ammunition, Rockets, and Missiles:The Guns, Ammunition, Rockets, and Missiles community focus areas include medium and large caliber direct and indirect fire technologies, armament systems for land, sea, and air applications, energetics, precision munitions, and systems integration onto current and emerging platforms. Attention to modeling and simulation is key to the innovation objectives of the segment. In times technology and manufacturing changes new approaches to ensure affordability will also be addressed.
Unconventional and Emerging Armament Systems (UEAS):The Unconventional and Emerging Technology Armament Systems focus areas include (but are not limited to) electromagnetics, lasers, high power microwave, no-lethal counter personnel and material, hypersonic, sensor defeat (spectrum denial), and other emerging armament technologies. Topics addressed include opportunities for UEA technologies and systems and status of technologies enabling new armament capabilities. Progress in several key areas will be highlighted.

Ohio Northern University professor honored with prestigious mathematics award
The Mathematical Association of America has selected Ohio Northern University professor of mathematics Khristo Boyadzhiev as the winner of the 2013 Carl B. Allendoerfer Award, which is given for articles of expository excellence published in Mathematics Magazine.
Boyadzhiev was recognized for his article "Close Encounters with the Stirling Numbers of the Second Kind." The Allendoerfer nomination states, "Boyadzhiev's fascinating historical survey centers on the representation of Stirling numbers of the second kind by a binomial transform formula. This might suggest a combinatorial approach to the study, but the article is novel in its analytical approach that mixes combinatorics and analysis."
Catherine Albrecht, dean of the Getty College of Arts & Sciences, said, "Boyadzhiev joins a distinguished list of well-respected professionals in the field of mathematics; this ranks him among the best in the nation."
Established in 1976, the Carl B. Allendoerfer Award is named for Carl Allendoerfer, a distinguished mathematician at the University of Washington and former president of the Mathematical Association of America. The award is for $500, and up to two are given annually at the summer meeting of the association.

How somebody develops such a phobia is open to speculation. Perhaps a youthful yo-yoing accident? Or a game of cat's cradle that spun out of control? Who can really say for sure?
Those who suffer from this rare phobia are sure to have a hard time in life, because they have to deal not only with the occasional roll of string, but also all the things made from string and yard, including clothes, blankets, carpet, etc.
And don't even get us started on kites. We imagine the "Let's Go Fly a Kite" finish to "Mary Poppins" alone would be enough to set treatment back for years.
Our next phobia is a weighty issue ...
No. 2: Barophobia - Fear Of Gravity
Most people would probably agree gravity is a good thing. Without it we'd all be floating around and eating or going to the bathroom ... well, let's just say the less said the better.
Actually, that's one of the very reasons barophobes fear gravity: They worry that the fickle force of nature could one day fail and leave us all literally up in the air.
On the flip side of the coin, some barophobic people worry they instead will be crushed by the force of gravity were it to become too great.
While the fear of gravity may stem from a traumatic fall as a child, sometimes the fear is less direct. Some arrive at barophobia because they fear the role gravity plays in aging -- think sagging flesh -- or just feel powerless over nature.
One thing's a given though: You won't find many barophobes in line to ride Space Mountain, or any other thrill ride for that matter.
Just as you won't find many people with our last phobia enjoying a nice PB&J ...
No. 1: Arachibutyrophobia - Fear of peanut butter sticking to roof of your mouth
We are more than a little skeptical anyone realistically could have an abnormal fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of their mouth, but, to be frank, the idea's so delightful we're willing to embrace arachibutyrophobia.
The phobia, which hasn't actually been officially categorized as a medical disorder, was coined by author Peter O'Donnell in his 1985 novel "Dead Man's Handle." It got online and spread easier than creamy peanut butter on warm toast.
The term itself comes from the Greek word arachi, which means "ground nut," and ... who are we kidding? It's impossible for anybody to take this one seriously.
That is, except for the good people at the CTRN Phobia Clinic, who, seeing an opportunity to make money off the gullible, latched onto the word as a serious, debilitating illness. As the clinic's website promises, for as little as $1,497 you too can work toward the "guaranteed lifetime elimination of Sticky Peanut Butter Phobia."
Now, that's truly scary.

27 October 2011
Three friends who took part in a champion's workshop together are bringing Breeze bike rides to Burnley!
Michelle Grimes, Claire Newton and Janet Roundell have joined forces to start offering fun, social, local bike rides for women in the Burnley area. The first Burnley Breeze Ride takes place on Thursday 24th November, and will be a lovely canalside bike ride from Burnley to Foulridge and back, with a cafe stop halfway along!
The Padiham-Whalley ride on Saturday 26th November is, as the name suggests, a road ride from Padiham to Whalley and back. The organisers say the route's ideal to build confidence in road cycling – but don't worry, they'll be avoiding major roads where possible.
So if you fancy an easy-going bike ride and a chance to meet new people and get some gentle exercise, sign up to take part today!


text: I did not have a decent night of sleep since more than one year and recently DD ( 7 mo) is waking a lot at night so I am so awfully tired. She still nurses at least 3 times at night if not more, I cosleep but this is not giving me enough rest...So I am dreaming to have one ininterrupted 8 hours night and would like to arrange some bottles for her and have DH take care of her one night. So considering that my supply is already on the low side the question is if I do not nurse for one night will this be already enough to decrease my supply? Thanks!

Andrew Puhl: Pole Barn
Friday, June 8, 2012 - Saturday, August 25, 2012
The Southwestern Virginia pole barn is a structure that symbolizes a sense of place for the region. Artist and Virginia Tech graduate student, Andrew Puhl, photo-documented these structures in their original landscapes for several years - often installing in them intensely colored fluorescent lights. Using the night sky as a backdrop, light adds a "haunted" aura to the images that dislocates a cultural identity that we customarily associate with these structures. The result is visually compelling and surreal.

Earlier this year Nikon refreshed its entry-level lineup of DSLR's with the launch of the Nikon D3200. Rather than replacing the D3100 indefinitely, the D3200 has been designed to run alongside the D3100 meaning there's a choice of two entry-level models for anyone looking to upgrade from a less advanced camera. To give you a clearer idea of the differences between these two cameras and to help you decide on which one to choose, we've picked out ten key dissimilarities.
Nikon's D3100 was launched on August 19th 2010 and its price at the time of launch was £579 with Nikon's 18-55mm VR lens. Two years on and at the time of writing the price of the D3100 has reduced to £385 with the 18-55 VR lens. Body only, the camera can be picked up for £319.
In comparison the D3200, launched on April 19th 2012 was first available at £649 with the 18-55mm lens. This price has dropped significantly over recent months to £525 with the 18-55mm VR lens. This works out at £140 more than the D3100 lens bundle. Purchase the D3200 body only and you're looking at £489 compared to the D3100's £319. Body only the D3200 is £100 more expensive than the D3100.
And we know what you're thinking. What more do you get for your money if you opt for the Nikon D3200 over the D3100? Check out the next few pages where we disclose the technical differences.
Differences between the Nikon D3100 and D3200
One of the key differences between the D3100 and the D3200 are the sensors found inside. The Nikon D3100 features a 14.2Mp CMOS sensor whereas the newer Nikon D3200 features a 24.2Mp chip.
Both sensors are APS-C size so you'll have to bear in mind the 1.5x multiplication crop factor when attaching lenses. Both the D3100 and D3200 support Nikon's range of DX lenses and the 18-55mm kit lens is equivalent to 27-82.5mm in 35mm terms.
To achieve the D3200's higher resolution Nikon has squeezed more photosites (pixels) on the same sized chip.
Of the two cameras the D3200 offers the greater sensitivity range. The Nikon D3100 features an ISO range that runs from 100-3200 (with the option of expanding this to ISO 6400 and 12,800 in the Hi 1 and Hi 2 settings. In comparison the D3200 has a native ISO range of 100-6400 with the opportunity to expand this to 12,800.

Differences between the Nikon D3100 and D3200
Despite having larger volumes of data to process, the D3200 shoots faster than the D3100. The maximum continuous speed at which you can shoot on the D3100 is 3 frames per second (fps) and this is 1 frame per second slower than the D3200 which shoots at 4fps.
The D3200 also features an newer image processor to deal with the large 6016×4000 pixel files. Instead of adopting the EXPEED 2 image-processing engine the D3100 uses, the D3200 features Nikon's EXPEED 3 image-processing engine that's found in the top-of-the-line D4 and D800. The D3200 also offers a quiet shutter release mode for discreet shooting – a feature the D3100 doesn't offer.
Differences between the Nikon D3100 and D3200
AF System
Although this guide is looking at the differences between the D3100 and D3200 we must point out there's no difference between the D3100's and the D3200's AF system. Nikon has stuck with the 11-point Multi-CAM 1000 auto focus module on both DSLRs. Along with Single-point AF and dynamic-area AF, there's auto-area AF and Nikon's clever 3D tracking. This mode will track your subject from AF point to AF point as it moves across the frame.
Much like the D3100, the D3200 doesn't feature a built-in AF motor. This isn't a major issue, as the majority of the Nikon lens line-up features lenses with their own built-in motors (designated AF-S), but it is worth bearing in mind if you're planning on using or buying older designs that don't offer this, as manual focus will only be achievable.
Differences between the Nikon D3100 and D3200
Size and Weight
There's very little difference in terms of size between the D3100 and D3200. Of the two the D3100 is the slightly smaller, measuring 124x96x73mm compared to the D3200's 125x96x76mm dimensions.
Both the D3100 and D3200 accept SD media. Despite the marginal differences in size, both cameras weigh 505g with a battery and card inserted. As for power the D3100 uses a rechargeable Li-ion EN-EL14 battery whereas the D3200 is powered by the rechargeable Li-ion EN-EL5A battery.
Differences between the Nikon D3100 and D3200
A key difference between the D3100 and the D3200 is the resolution of the cameras screens. The D3100 features a pedestrian 230k-dot resolution compared to the D3200's 921k dots.
You can expect the D3200's screen to be sharper and clearer than the D3100's screen which is a significant advantage when reviewing images in playback mode or assessing image sharpness.
Differences between the Nikon D3100 and D3200
Wireless support
Unlike the D3100, the D3200 is Wi-Fi enabled, provided you purchase the incredibly small WU-1A transmitter (£54.99) that's offered as an optional extra.
This small unit connects to the D3200 via the mini-USB socket on the side of the camera and allows you to transmit images to a host of devices. Images can be shared directly with Facebook, back-up images to a computer or sent to an Android smartphone or tablet via a downloadable app. As long as your no further away than 49ft, you can also stream the Live View feed from the D3200 to your Android device and be able to shoot remotely as well.
Differences between the Nikon D3100 and D3200
HD video
The D3200 improves on the D3100 in terms of its HD video capabilities. The D3100 was only capable of recording Full HD 1080p at 24fps, however the newer D3200 shoots at 24,25 and 30fps. On the D3100 the movie-rec button was found at the rear of the camera.
Another improvement on the D3200 over the D3100 is the addition of a 3.5mm microphone socket ready to support an external mic. This can be used with microphones such as Nikon's ME-1. It's worth noting that the D3100 does not feature a 3.5mm mic port, meaning if you're looking to take better of control of audio, the D3200 makes the better choice. The D3200's movie-rec button is also found on the top plate beside the info button rather than at the rear of the camera.
Differences between the Nikon D3100 and D3200
So in summary and not surprisingly for a refreshed model, the D3200 features more advantages than disadvantages in comparison with the D3100. The clear advantages the D3100 offers over the D3200 is that it's cheaper and fractionally smaller. If you're looking for a feature packed DSLR, the D3200 is a good choice but you will need to bear in mind that you'll need to spend around £120 more for the privilege of the extra features.

When Wayne Memorial Hospital's administrative team plans ahead, quality healthcare for everyone in our region is always at the heart of our long-range vision. But negotiating the road is not easy, especially in today's climate. The economy is sluggish. The federal government—think "Obama-care"—has mandated dramatic changes in reimbursement formulas for Medicare patients. State budget cutbacks are always an issue. Insurance companies routinely change the rules for payment.
For some hospitals, the mix has been toxic.
Our neighbor, Marian Community Hospital in Carbondale, closed in February. Other regional hospitals have merged or been purchased by bigger, mostly for-profit operations such as Community Health Systems, which bought Mercy Hospital, Moses Taylor and Mid-Valley in the Scranton area.
Wayne Memorial Hospital, the linchpin of Wayne Memorial Health System (WMHS), is one of the few remaining non-profit, non-allied, community-controlled healthcare providers in the region. WMHS is the largest private employer in Wayne County, with close to 1,100 employees and 17 facilities. We serve approximately 100,000 people along the Upper Delaware in Pennsylvania and New York.
Our hospital is in a unique position to steer its own growth, and over the last decade, our administrative team and board of directors took actions that now seem prescient.
In 2007, our primary care offices were named a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC). This designation brought with it huge incentives—such as paid malpractice insurance—for doctors to come work in our rural area. Our FQHC also accepts the under- and un-insured, as well as the privately insured, helping many who are between jobs or otherwise not able to afford ever-escalating health insurance premiums.
Today, our FQHC, which is called Wayne Memorial Community Health Centers (WMCHC), offers primary care, dental health, ob/gyn and behavioral health to everyone. It has 125 employees, including 13 physicians, and operates 10 facilities with more in the offing.
Secondly, the board of directors approved $6 million in 2006 for Electronic Medical Records (EMR) implementation to enhance patient safety and the quality of our healthcare services. This decision, made before EMR was mandated, resulted in our receiving $2 million from the federal government for "meaningful use" of EMR technology.
Healthcare, however, is always evolving. The federal government now pays for quality of care rather than volume in an effort to reduce costs. Surveys on clinical measures and patient experience are used to calculate reimbursement fees for hospitalized Medicare patients. Wayne Memorial stands to lose—or gain—hundreds of thousands of dollars each year.
There is a lot of financial "risk" at stake in this new world. There are also potential benefits. While we expect to remain independent, we may seek to partner with other entities to provide needed services such as stroke support or specialized cardiology programs. It may also mean expanding into new areas or locations.
In the last 12 months, Wayne Memorial Health System and WMCHC have opened or acquired primary care and outpatient ancillary service centers (x-rays, blood draw, EKG) in Wayne, Lackawanna and Susquehanna Counties in Pennsylvania. Future projects include behavioral health and dental services in Pike County.
Our expanding healthcare services impact the local economy by providing jobs and customers for housing, retail, food and other commodities. According to the Hospital and Healthsystem Association of Pennsylvania (HAP), Wayne Memorial Hospital alone spends approximately $68.5 million dollars annually and provides a ripple benefit of $66.3 million dollars to the region's economy. We see continued growth of these numbers.
Growing and expanding access to quality healthcare in our region continues to be Wayne Memorial's vision for the future. We believe we're on target to achieve our goals. Visit one of our facilities and let us know how we're doing.
[David L. Hoff is the Chief Executive Officer at Wayne Memorial Health System.]

April 28, 2011 —
Noel van Swol, a tireless leader in supporting gas drilling in New York State, gathered with a phalanx of local supporters to oppose proposed legislation that could give towns certain limited powers over gas drilling.
Van Swol is the leader of the Sullivan-Delaware Property Owner's Association, a pro-drilling group representing landowners owning 70,000+ acres who are interested in entering into an environmentally responsible and financially beneficial leasing arrangement for natural gas extraction.
The agenda of the town meeting focused on proposed legislation in the senate and the assembly that gives some limited control through zoning over aspects of gas drilling, such as where drilling could or could not be done. The senate bill is co-sponsored by Senator John Bonacic and the assembly bill is co-sponsored by Assemblywoman Aileen Gunther.
Gunther said that the legislation passed the Environmental Conservation Committee during the last session and was expected to pass in this one. "It would probably move to the local government committee before it goes to the floor," she said.
Senator Susan Oppenhiemer, a Democrat who is the sponsor of the legislation, no longer has the power to move the legislation since Democrats are not in the majority.
"I think this legislation is an excellent idea," Bonacic said. "I have always believed in local control. People in their own community with their local board should control their own destiny. I believe in home rule."
"This legislation is a Trojan horse," van Swol said. "It is a hidden attempt to stop gas drilling in New York and in our town. The Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) has total control over gas drilling in the state. This legislation, if adopted, could cause a situation across the state where you would have a hodgepodge of laws. It would amount to total anarchy. I would advise that the Sullivan-Delaware Property Owners Association would oppose this legislation. You should at
the very least table this until you have time to study it."
"I depend on the state agency to say 'You can't put that rig next to this church,'" said council member Harold Roeder, who represents the town on the Upper Delaware Council. "But when you get down to the local level of this, you now have problems. I can see where it's heading. Those who want drilling should have the right to have it. A lot people here are against drilling."
If these should pass, the town would have a raft of legal suits against it by citizens who wanted drilling on their land and were prohibited from doing so. Court costs would be very expensive, he said.
Several members of the audience explained that the legislation was not against gas drilling but aimed to give the town the right to control where drilling is done. Their attempts to explain their position were dismissed by many who viewed the law as a veiled attempt to stop drilling altogether.
Council member John Gain moved that the question should be tabled until more information could be obtained about the legislation. The rest of the board agreed.
