Poland Supervisors Support Purchase Of Bucket Truck
With town of Poland Supervisor Kelly Snow out of town, the recent Town of Poland Board meeting was led by Kathy Stanton, acting supervisor. Several different items were on the agenda.
Under legal business, Larry Mee, highway superintendent, asked for a resolution from the board to enter into a municipal agreement with three other entities for the purchase of a used bucket truck. Highway department representatives for the town of Carroll, town of Ellicott, village of Falconer and town of Poland all went and examined the Freightliner, and felt it would be a good purchase for the four municipalities. Each would have a reduced cost, and Mee said the purchase cost would qualify for reimbursement under the state's CHIPS program. Board members agreed that the purchase would be a sound idea. Town attorney Paul Webb would draw up the legal agreement, contingent upon the passage of similar resolutions by the other municipalities involved.
Stanton then asked Webb about the town's position on the dog-control issues in a local trailer park. Webb again stated that since the park is private property, the town does not have to respond to nuisance complaints – that it is up to the park owner to set up rules for residents and their animals. Stanton stated that she wanted to be sure that the board was standing behind their dog control officer.
The new color printer has been purchased and received, and the rebate check from the state for purchase of Energy Star equipment has already been received as well.
Dennis Stornes noted that the Kennedy Free Library had run into a snag with the possible purchase of a local site for a new library. They hope to have the matter cleared up soon so they can make some definite decisions on the future direction of the library.
Councilman Terry Walker said that he has not planned a first meeting yet for planning for Memorial Day. He noted that it appears that a speaker has been lined up for the service. Roland Swanson said he was going to meet with the speaker to finalize plans. Walker said he would also contact him.
Stanton summarized a report from code officer Alan Gustafson. A notice of violation has been sent to one owner concerning continued safety issues on his property.
Dog control officer Brian King stated that the winter weather conditions have made it difficult for him to reach some areas to complete the dog enumeration. He stated that most of the work has been completed.
Audits of the various town departments were recently conducted. The reports have been received, and the books have been found in order. Board members voted to accept the audit reports.
Stanton said the town had received a letter from Chautauqua County concerning sponsoring a rabies clinic for town residents. The county would supply vaccines. The town would have to provide proof of liability insurance, and proof of a suitable site for the clinic. A veterinarian would have to be willing to provide their services for the clinic. Board members felt this would be a good service for town residents. King will contact other people to find out about the possibility and bring the information to the next meeting.
A resident has asked about the possibility of having a reduced speed zone on Route 394 near the town line at Waterboro. Mee stated that a request would have to be made in writing before anything could be formally taken to the state. The resident stated that people coming over the bridge heading east have too short a sight-line, and there have been some near-misses in the area.
Town clerk Barb Czerniak informed the board that a certificate of compliance has been received for the new electric service in the town hall. She also stated that the library contract had been signed.
Stanton asked board members to begin thinking about what should be the next project worked on in the building. Money has been set aside in the budget this year for work, so it just needs to be decided what to do next.
Mee said that his department has had several issues with equipment this snow season. They have basically been down to three trucks instead of four a lot of the time, which has created longer turn-around times for plow routes. Some issues have been covered under warranty, but others have created extra expenses for his department. He said there had been about three more feet of snow so far this year than last year at this time. More salt and sand had been purchased the last month, but were still under the minimum purchase requirement. With all the trucks back in service, he hoped to be able to remain within his budget.
The recreation committee report noted that conditions were excellent for the recent bus trip to Allegany State Park for a sledding trip. More than 20 residents had an enjoyable outing. A possible laser tag trip is being considered. Plans are well underway for the annual Easter egg hunt on March 30.
The next regular town of Poland Board meeting will be held on Tuesday at 7 p.m. in the town hall. Supervisor Snow will be available at 5:30 p.m. to meet with residents about their concerns. The public is encouraged to attend.

Gas Depression BluesPosted Wednesday, November 7, 2007, at 6:58 PM
I guess I am the eternal optimist, because the high gas prices didn't bother me - until yesterday. I went to Sikeston (which usually has the lowest prices around), and I didn't even look at the prices there. Instead, I attended my meeting, came home, dropped off my friend at her house, and went to the office, secure in the misguided belief that gas was still in that $2.79 range outside the Advance city limits.
Imagine my horror when I discovered that my sweet little reliable dial-up station on the edge of town was displaying a price tag of $2.95! I sat in shock for fully five minutes, I think, staring at the sign, hoping that my occasional dyslexsia was mixing up the numbers.
Not so! It was real. Horrifyingly real! I was so shocked that I couldn't buy any. I just came on home, thinking, "What am I gonna do??"
Here we are, headed into winter with those prices?
My mind is racing to come up with energy-saving ideas:
* Axe the field trips?
* Stay home and send my stories in by email?
* Reduce my highway speed to 40 m.p.h.?
* Car pool? (Yeah, out here? Who would I catch a ride with - the school bus?)
* Start out at 7 a.m. and walk to town? (Think I could do it in an hour? Mmmm...7-10 miles? I don't think so... Better start out at six. That allows me 3 hours. I know I can walk 3 miles an hour... Mmm..Is it light at six? I'm not sure. I'd need reflective clothing. Oh, darn - My dogs'll follow me. Then they'll get run over on the highway. What am I saying? I'll probably get run over on the highway, too!) Well, axe that idea!
* Get a horse? (My last horse bit me!) Axe that idea!
* Get a motorcycle? (The thing would fall over on me!) Axe that idea!
* Buy an economy car? (Which will get hopelessly stuck in the mud out here in the hills in the wintertime!) Axe that idea!
* Get one of those money-back gas cards guaranteed to save 25% off your gas bill? (I don't trust it! There's gotta be a catch!)
Okay, folks, let's put our heads together and figure it out! How do we fight back?
From the distant hills of Tillman, this is your befuddled and bewildered journalist, Madeline, signing off...

What bothers me the worst is not the fact that winter is coming...it's the fact that Christmas is coming...and then the fact that winter is coming b/c I have natural gas heat. Like the winter blues aren't bad enough, now we have to wonder if a barrel of oil will reach $100 tomorrow. We are lucky...I mean we could be paying $4.15 a gallon like they are elsewhere...then again...we could be making $9.00 an hour minimum wage too. This too shall pass...I hope...
-- Posted by mrsdolphin on Wed, Nov 7, 2007, at 11:33 PM
Good point about the minimum wage thing, mrsdolphin: I'm always hearing about how lucky we are that we don't have the highest gas prices, and the highest house prices, and on & on - but we also don't have the wages to go along with those high prices. I really think the overall lower cost of living is one of the reasons people choose to live here.
$3 a gallon gas is harder on us than $5 a gallon gas is on them.
Of course, judging from some of the houses in the area, I can't imagine that EVERYone has trouble paying high gas prices...
I think we'd all be better off if we lived modestly and didn't build those enormous houses, which squander so much of our energy resources. The same thing goes for those big SUVs that guzzle gas.

If we are bumming each other out-let's not forget property taxes will be due soon.(Why must they be due the week after Christmas?)
Oh, well soon the winter weather rules will be in force,so at least AmerenUE won't cut your heat off if that bill rubs against the car insurance or the phone bill or dentist bill.
No wonder my parents only want homemade gifts from us kids!(Where is my potholder loom?)
The catch with the credit cards is you usually can only use certain gas stations we don't always have in our little towns-how do I save money if I have to drive out of my way to buy gas?
I guess you could get a team of mules and a surrey with the fringe on top(orange triangle on the back),and encourage the city councils,employers, and local feed store to include horse and buggy parking spaces.Do mules require as much vet care as horses?
Do they make carts a team of goats could pull? I know if they did,you would never travel alone!
If not,do as I do,I call everyone when I go to the store or I whine for them to buy stuff when they go.Beats having to pay for gas when they are going to be there anyway. I'm also going to winterize my place this weekend,and use my drying racks-it keeps the humidity level very comfortable in the winter. I wash the night before and put most of my clothes on these racks (except jeans and towels-they really take too long),have my heat turned down low,and when I come home from work-voila-they are dry!
-- Posted by Yellow Rose of Essex on Thu, Nov 8, 2007, at 7:34 AM
Madeline Dejournett's response:Now, there's a solution that I hadn't thought of - goat power. I could have the Mennonites make me a handy little goat cart (painted red, of course), and I could take the back roads to town.
I dry my clothes on low for 10 minutes, then I put them on hangers and hang them on a clothes rack that my mother gave me years ago. I haven't noticed any effect on the humidity, however.
I remember a period of time about 20 years ago, when we couldn't afford to use the dryer, so we rigged up clothes lines in the basement. I'd hate to go through that thin time again!
Sorry, I forgot you live in the remote outback-I suggest you become pals with your mail carrier,then wait for said mail carrier with your saddest look and a walker,and say "Oh, I wish I had a gallon of milk,my pills, lightbulbs,etc"
If you know anybody heading to the store in the next few days ask them if they would mind getting such items for me,pull out a Santa Claus list and your tiny little change purse,have a sad look and your mail carrier will probably bring it their own self!
Remember to bless them and say,"I'll just be sitting here in the dark,I hope my heart will be okay. I hope I don't trip,what with my bones being so brittle without my milk,you know. Oh, and a couple of scratcher tickets too"

What happened to ALL the political PROMISES that "when we are in office we will do something to LOWER the gas prices"???? The current House and Senate have not said ONE word about their promises. Ms Nancy P.????? Ms. Clinton?????? We are waiting
-- Posted by D.W.B. on Thu, Nov 8, 2007, at 3:03 PM
Thats what I am thinking. Thats all we heard before the last election or at least one of the main things that nothing has been done about. It is acutally a lot worse now. I saw those bumper stickers everywhere, "Had Enough". Well I certainly have now. Of course we should be smart enough to know that there is really nothing that politicians can do about this and shouldn't be fooled by such foolishness next time.
-- Posted by I.B. Le Truth on Thu, Nov 8, 2007, at 6:23 PM
Pot holder loom! Now, there's a nice little cottage industry for the Outback!
Stay home and weave potholders, hitch a ride with the mailcarrier or the UPS man, and sell the cute little items beside the highway. Just in time for Christmas.
-- Posted by goat lady on Thu, Nov 8, 2007, at 7:33 PM
Wouldn't it be wonderful if we would all finally unite and NO ONE buy gas for two full days across the country? Do you know how that would cripple the suppliers? It's hard to imagine that the overall picture could be changed by such a simple effort, but it appears it could. I believe we're just all way too complacent when it comes to these issues. Madeline, what do you think our chances are of changing the world from the hills of Tillman, Missouri?
-- Posted by bringwine on Fri, Nov 9, 2007, at 10:50 PM
Madeline Dejournett's response:Well, every once in awhile, someone tries to organize a gas boycott, but I haven't heard that any of them did much good. And, now I'm hearing bad things about how hard ethanol is on the environment. It does sound as if the hybrid cars might be an answer.
The reason gas boycotts don't work is because eventually we have to go back to buying fuel. We haven't figured out a way to wean our cars from gasoline. Darn it! We've tightened our belts so much our tummies are touching our backbones now. There's not another notch on the belt.

$30.26 -- March 2003 price of a barrel of crude oil when the U.S. invaded Iraq.
$98.62 -- November 2007 price of a barrel of crude oil as U.S. occupies Iraq and administration officials fuel speculation the U.S. will invade Iran.
-- Posted by FJGuy on Tue, Nov 20, 2007, at 7:10 PM
That doesn't sound exactly right. Supply and demand sets prices. The supply has not decreased.
Think the industrialization of China and their dramatic increase in utilization has anything to do with it?
Can you also say we can't refine any more than we are right now? A greater supply of crude will not increase the supply of gasoline right now will it?
-- Posted by I.B. Le Truth on Tue, Nov 20, 2007, at 8:46 PM
Always defending the status quo, aren't you, I.B.?
-- Posted by goat lady on Wed, Nov 21, 2007, at 7:15 AM
Just defending the truth. You can say anything that you want, but when someone makes accusations or statements that may or may not be factual we shouldn't just let it go. If you do it will soon become the truth.
-- Posted by I.B. Le Truth on Wed, Nov 21, 2007, at 7:18 AM
Does Hurricane Katrina's destruction of many refineries,along with the lack of new ones being built,factor into the increase?
Why is gas so much higher in Europe and the U.K.,and I also wonder why they are rationing gas in an oil rich country such as Iran?
As always,why does Poplar Bluff always have higher prices than Dexter,and Sikeston is lower-seems hinky to me.
-- Posted by Yellow Rose of Essex on Wed, Nov 21, 2007, at 8:34 AM
The price of oil is a matter of public record, and it is typically reported in a newspaper's business section. Other facts based on the public record:
$28.66 -- January 2001 price of a barrel of oil when GB took office. So it increased about 5% between Jan 01 and March 03, and 325% since.
Prior to the U.S.'s invasion of Iraq, the price of oil was highest in 1981 during the Iran-Iraq war -- $38 barrel. I remember the horrible lines at gas stations in LA caused by an interruption in the oil supply during that war.
There is no current shortage of gasoline and there is a surplus of oil available on the market. If there was a shortage of gas we would be waiting in long lines at gas stations like we did in 1973-74, and 1980-81.
Supply and demand is only one factor affecting a product's price.
Very high taxes are why Europe, the UK and other countries have higher gas prices than the U.S. That is also why overall their vehicles are much smaller than in the U.S.
-- Posted by FJGuy on Wed, Nov 21, 2007, at 2:11 PM
What are we going to do with the crude if we buy it. We can't refine any more.Sure there is a big supply of crude and China is now getting most of it. Iran is producing oil, Iraq is producing oil, Saudi Arabia is producing oil, Russia is producing oil, Venezuela is producing oil, We are producing oil. Who isn't producing oil at these prices for a barrel of crude? It doesn't matter to us if there becomes an oil glut. We can't refine it. Our growth causes an increased use. Before there was an excess. Not any more. Industry is booming and everyone has an extra SUV. There has been no increase in refinery production or no new refineries to accomodate the increased use. I think in 73-74 there wasn't oil to be refined. There is this time. There is no interuption of oil supply.
-- Posted by I.B. Le Truth on Wed, Nov 21, 2007, at 5:19 PM
What's your theory on why we don't have enough refineries? Could they not hold on through the tough times - or were they wiped out by governmental regulations?
-- Posted by goat lady on Sun, Nov 25, 2007, at 7:08 PM
Not one new refinery in 30 years. Our consumption has steadily increased, but our ability to refine has not. We are not the only ones though. I assume the restrictions are there and of course if the profit isn't there, then why build a new one. Now I assume there will in the near future be more built if the environmental regulations will allow it. Our cost is never going to go down again though. Unless we decrease use.
-- Posted by I.B. Le Truth on Sun, Nov 25, 2007, at 11:20 PM
I think that's the solution - We need to find multiple methods of reducing oil consumption. However, at the rate the American public is going, I don't see that happening. People are NOT building smaller houses and buying smaller cars. Quite the opposite! Some of them are just sinfully large!
-- Posted by goat lady on Mon, Nov 26, 2007, at 4:26 PM
I don't think that overall people in the U.S. will reduce their oil/gas consumption until forced to do so by prices too high for them to pay. Many people are engaged in various forms of self-delusion. I know a guy who recently bought a gigantic pick-up that gets 12 miles per gallon -- but he tells everyone it gets 19! Everyone knows he's making it up, but he seems to have a psychological need to do so.
Gas consumption could be cut by 25-30% by implementing two simple proposals: Ban automatic transmissions and air conditioning in cars.
-- Posted by FJGuy on Mon, Nov 26, 2007, at 8:48 PM
ACK!!! No air conditioning???!!! Surely, there's a better way!!
Smaller cars with air conditioning. That's bound to be better!
Smaller houses that use less energy. If someone can afford to build a darn fool mausoleum like that monstrosity on Bloomfield Road (going into Cape from Dutchtown), then they can surely afford to use solar energy technology and be a better steward of the environment.
-- Posted by goat lady on Tue, Nov 27, 2007, at 7:01 AM
If I could afford a monstrosity of a house I would have one. When I can't afford air conditioning I will not have it. If I can afford steak and lobster that is what I will eat. If beans are all I can afford that is what I will have and curse the man with the big house eating his steak and lobster.
-- Posted by I.B. Le Truth on Tue, Nov 27, 2007, at 9:32 PM
Madeline Dejournett's response:Well, it's interesting that gas in Advance is still up in the $2.95 range, as of the first of December, and last night I bought it in Sikeston for the old price of $2.79 again.
Yesterday I got another of those "Don't buy gas on such & such a date" emails. According to Snopes, those plots just don't work, because people are not cutting consumption - they're just rescheduling when they buy.

ADK Works survey shows most locals support resort
TUPPER LAKE – An advocacy group's recent public opinion survey shows a majority of local residents are in favor of the Adirondack Club and Resort project, but not everyone agrees with the findings.
The 300 people surveyed live in Franklin and Essex counties and voted in the last two elections. They were asked a series of questions about topics like the ACR, Protect the Adirondacks and what is most needed in the region.
The data was collected for the ADK Works campaign in September via phone surveys conducted by the Irvington-based Diversified Research Inc. ADK Works made its public debut in October with the goal of keeping the ACR in the forefront of people's minds.
Almost 91,000 people live in Franklin and Essex counties, according to 2012 census data. The survey included 300 of those, a number that put the data within the 95 percent confidence range.
According to the survey's results, 61 percent of residents support the ACR project, and 71 percent of residents with a favorable opinion of Protect the Adirondacks also support the ACR project.
The data also show that 51 percent of residents think the economy is the biggest issue facing their community.
"The economy is still in the front of everybody's minds, and it highlights the fact that we all love the Park – that's why we live here – but it consists of people as well, and the Park only works when people do," said Jim LaValley, spokesperson for ADK Works. "I think what's sometimes lost is this is private property, and it's private property that's cleared what has to be done. The applicants followed it even beyond, and it's protecting 90 percent of the overall land area."
A Pennsylvania-based investment group called Preserve Associates proposed the ACR almost 10 years ago. If completed, the project would overhaul the Big Tupper Ski Area in Tupper Lake and build out the land around it with about 650 luxury housing units and various amenities including a spa, a marina and an equestrian center.
The state Adirondack Park Agency approved the project for permits on Jan. 20, 2012, but progress stopped that March when two environmental groups, Protect and the Sierra Club, and three nearby landowners sued to challenge the APA's decision, charging that the APA didn't follow its own rules. That suit is still working its way through state courts, with a decision expected sometime this summer.
LaValley said part of the reason the New York state Association of Realtors became involved with ADK Works is the state Supreme Court's decision could become a private property rights issue whose effects ripple throughout the state.
Peter Bauer of Protect the Adirondacks said he disagreed with the survey. He would not comment on data that suggest a majority of Protect supporters also favor the ACR, but he did say the findings are misleading.
"We did note that ADK Works failed to mention anywhere in their poll if people would support the ACR project if it was their understanding that the permits were issued in a way that broke state laws, regulations and policies," Bauer said. "That's the contention of our lawsuit and it would have been interesting to figure out what the public thought of that fact. Nothing that ADK Works has done deals with that part of it."
Bauer called the survey a public relations campaign to build the political influence of ADK Works and to influence public opinion without looking at the issue of whether laws have been broken. He argued that the survey ridicules the lawsuit without dealing with its merits.
"What ADK Works is doing is largely a smear campaign, and the New York State Realtors Association should really be ashamed of participating in this effort," Bauer said. "Nothing that happens in the Adirondacks has implications across the state: good, bad or indifferent. Nothing about the ACR project has affected development anywhere else in the Park."
Bauer questioned the survey's claims that there has been significant economic decline in the Adirondacks. He said development has consistently occurred within the Park's boundaries.
"It's an open question whether or not there has been an economic decline in the Adirondacks," Bauer said. "Pick your indicators, because it tells a different story. The APA has issued 17,000 permits, and there have been 35,000 houses built in the Adirondacks since the APA came in 40 years ago. The ACR project is a singular experience. It's not universal. What's happening to the ACR project is particular to the ACR project and it's in no way indicative of what's happening in the Adirondacks or across the state."
ADK Works Public Affairs Supervisor Saleem Cheeks said the survey was conducted to get a true representation of people's opinions on the project, which is why it surveyed people who generally favor Protect and the Sierra Club.
"I think that's one of the key takeaways from this report," Cheeks said. "Something like 71 percent of the people that support Protect the Adirondacks also support this project. That to me is indicative of how this project has broad support."
The survey found strong support for the ACR from 64 percent of those respondents identifying as moderate, 62 percent as conservative and 55 percent as liberal. It also found that 58 percent of local Republicans and 42 percent of local Democrats cite economic issues such as unemployment and taxes as the biggest issues facing their communities.
The majority of those who favor the ACR project cited job creation and other economic reasons as the basis for their support. Among those who oppose the ACR project, concerns about environmental impact ranked behind concerns regarding project size and aesthetics. Concerns about the necessity of the project were a lesser factor.
"When you talk about facts, you can take the emotion out of it and have a dialogue," Cheeks said. "That's what the ADK Works campaign is about – the fact that the economy is suffering, the communities are struggling, and they're in need of something that's appropriate for the Adirondack Park. The real question here is, if not this, than what do you suggest?"

Teen Movie Review: Killers
This movie is pretty cool. "Killers" is a funny action film. Ashton Kutcher and Katherine Heigl are amazing together. They are both funny, and have obvious good comedic chemistry together. In this movie Ashton is a spy/assassin, who falls in love and retires, while maintaining spy mentality. How many other movies have Ashton Kutcher acting just like Bullseye from Daredevil? They are dealing with some funny, sticky situations, including trained assassins trying to kill Ashton for a twenty million dollar reward ... a lot of money for one retired spy! But hey, if they give me that kind of money, and a Klondike bar, I'd kill whoever they wanted, too. One of the assassins is the actor that plays Stuart, the owner of the comic book store in the Big Bang Theory. So, you know that this is going to be funny, and a lot of people are going to get hurt. This movie is awesome! The humor is good and doesn't force the jokes down your throat; every scene will have you cracking up. Plus, there's an interesting twist at the end. I won't spoil the ending, so go out and watch this movie. If you like comedy (which you obviously do if you're reading this) or guns and violence (my personal favorite for movies) then this is a movie you will want to watch.

Dr. Brunner joins SLVHA's Adult Dental Program
SARANAC LAKE – Lake Placid oral surgeon Dr. Beth Brunner, DMD, MD, has joined the Saranac Lake Voluntary Health Association's team of dentists implementing approved applications as part of the SLVHA Dental Emergency Care Assistance Program.
"Since we opened in 2011, we have seen a lot of people in need," said Erin Miller the Lake Placid oral surgery office assistant. "When we were contacted by Brenda (Reeve) from the Saranac Lake Voluntary Health Association to help fulfill their dental grants, we were honored. There are so many hard-working people that don't have insurance that don't fit into a government aid program and simply can't afford dental care. We do offer some discounts, depending on financial need, but there is never enough available to help everyone in need."
So far this year the SLVHA has approved 21 exams, cleanings and X-rays, 10 dentures and partials, eight emergency procedures, one tissue grafting, and one root canal. In additional Dr. Tony Small from the Tri-Lakes Center for Dentistry has conducted numerous extractions. Upon approval from the SLVHA Dental Emergency Care Assistance Committee, the outlined procedures were either partially paid or paid in full, based on financial need.
"I think Brenda at the SLVHA is fantastic to talk with," Miller said. "She is great with patients and knows how to make people comfortable when applying for the dental grants. The patients that are being helped are not looking for a handout. Sometimes they have to be urged to apply so that the procedure won't become a financial burden. Brenda makes people feel comfortable. That is why we like working with her."
In 2010, the SLVHA began offering financial assistance for basic dental care to residents living within the Saranac Lake Central School District. For approval, applicants need to provide proof that the dental visit or the dental process will pose a financial hardship. All costs for the procedures are not necessarily covered by the SLVHA. In most cases the individual bears a small portion of the financial responsibility. (People can receive an application by contacting the SLVHA at 891-0910 or online at www.saranaclakevha.org.)
"The need for the SLVHA dental assistance program is immense," says Miller. "When people get a toothache or anything that gets into the head, they may fear the expense and put treatment off. This program is great as it helps the people that fall between the cracks. More people have to become aware that this money is available and to take advantage of it."
The Saranac Lake Voluntary Health Association Inc. is a nonprofit organization established in 1897 and dedicated to improving the health of the people within the Saranac Lake Central School District through funding healthcare initiatives and scholarships for students in the medical, nursing, rehabilitative and allied fields of study.

Stock Futures Rise Despite Cyprus Fears
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Stock futures were rising Friday, poised to bounce back from the biggest selloff in equities in almost a month, even as Cyprus' fate was hanging in the balance.
Cyprus is fighting to avoid financial collapse after Russia, which has billions of dollars of deposits in Cypriot banks, brushed off the island-country's pleas for financial aid.
After two days of talks with Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov, Cypriot Finance Minister Michael Sarriss left Moscow without a deal to help fund €5.8 billion it needs to raise in order to unlock €10 billion in European and and International Monetary Fund aid and garner the €17 billion it needs to recapitalize its banks.
The urgency for finding a new plan to fill the funding gap after the country rejected an outright tax on bank depositors as part of a European bailout deal is mounting as the European Central Bank threatens to withdraw ongoing emergency bridge funding for its banks before Tuesday if the near-bankrupt country cannot come to a bailout agreement with the European Union and IMF soon.
Cyprus' government pleaded with lawmakers Friday to "take the big decisions" to avert financial chaos.
"The next few hours will determine the future of the country," Christos Stylianides, a government spokesman, said in televised statement before lawmakers began debating alternative proposals to avoid financial ruin.
The "troika" of lenders to Cyprus consisting of the International Monetary Fund, the European Central Bank and the European Commission met with President Nicos Anastasiades Friday morning and would vet the measures if Parliament passed them.
"The market thinks that a solution will be found....it doesn't believe it is going to implode," said Kenny Polcari, director of New York Stock Exchange Floor Operations at O'Neil Securities, Inc.
Polcari thinks that end-of-quarter "window dressing" by mutual fund and portfolio managers was also contributing to the firmer markets.
Futures for the S&P 500 were up 3.5 points, or 3.45 points above fair value, at 1,542.5, with the index looking to avoid tipping into its second weekly decline this year.
Futures for the Nasdaq were up 6.25 points, or 8.75 points above fair value, at 2,776. Futures for the Dow Jones Industrial Average were rising 31 points, or 33.51 points above fair value, at 14,378.
"The two questions for investors are: 1) is there a bank run in Cyprus regardless of any deal, when banks reopen? and 2) will events in Cyprus make future Euro crises more difficult or costly to resolve. The answers appear to be 1) don't know and 2) yes," Paul Donovan, managing director of global economics at UBS in London, said in a note.
Cyprus banks are expected to remain closed until at least Monday to avoid bank runs as a bailout deal remains uncertain.

The Einstein community remembered a remarkable faculty member – and recognized another remarkable scientist who was once his colleague – at the Dennis Shields Memorial Lecture on Monday, November 5.
Dr. Peter Walter, distinguished professor at the University of California, San Francisco, spoke on "The Unfolded Protein Response in Health and Disease."
The memorial lecture honored Dr. Dennis Shields, an internationally recognized cellular biologist who died in 2008 after serving on the faculty for 30 years. At the time of his passing, Dr. Shields was a much-loved professor of developmental and molecular biology and of anatomy and structural biology. He also had served as the first director of the Belfer Institute for Advanced Biomedical Sciences, which oversees postdoctoral life at Einstein.
Drs. Shields and Walter worked briefly together in the Rockefeller University lab of Nobel laureate Dr. Günter Blobel.
In his lecture, Dr. Walter discussed how cells detect and respond to proteins that are assembled and folded improperly in the endoplasmic reticulum. Controlling levels of misfolded proteins is critical, because excessive levels can lead to cell death and play a role in diseases such as diabetes and cancer.
Dr. Walter was introduced by another former colleague of Dr. Shields, Dr. E. Richard Stanley, who holds the Renee E. and Robert A. Belfer Chair in Developmental Biology.
The remembrance of Dr. Shields continued on Tuesday, November 13, when three Einstein postdoctoral fellows received the 2012 Dennis Shields Prizes for Outstanding Postdoctoral Research.
The $5,000 prizes, which recognize published research done at Einstein, went to Drs. José Javier Bravo-Cordero, in anatomy and structural biology; Saidi M'Homa Soudja, in microbiology & immunology; and Brian Scharf, in pathology.
The awards were presented by Dr. Allen Spiegel, the Marilyn and Stanley M. Katz Dean at Einstein; Dr. Jonathan Backer, the current director of the Belfer Institute; and Mrs. Toni Shields, the widow of Dr. Shields.
The awardees presented brief overviews of their work at a ceremony and luncheon, which also featured poster sessions by other postdocs. Five of these researchers were honored with travel awards of $500 toward attending future scientific meetings.

It might get a tiny "sour" flavor from the ethanol - maybe, but it's never going to be anything like the sour of a sourdough. The sour comes from lactic acid bacteria which you just don't have in meaningful amounts in a baker's yeast leavened dough. Maybe if your flour was contaminated with some sort of bacteria, maybe.
PE101, been reading this thread from the beginning, starting to wonder if maybe you are not a super taster? Try making a dough with a sourdough starter and see if it tastes like sourdough. Also, as you do not like beer, maybe you are objecting to the beery taste of a well fermented yeasted bread dough. Certainty there are similarities. Not trying to give you a hard time, but from what you have described, it seems to me your taste may be a bit off. -Marc
As others have noted, there is nothing in your formula or workflow that should give you a sour taste no matter what you do - effortlessly or otherwise. I have to agree with Marc that you are likely confusing a yeasty, fermented taste for a sour taste.
James,As I noted at Reply 17 at http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,21181.msg214864/topicseen.html#msg214864, it takes a fair amount of yeast to be discernible in the finished crust. Also, since ADY contains more dead cells than IDY, some people may be able to taste the difference between those two forms of yeast. In your case, I suppose it is possible that your unique taste sensitivity allows you to taste the IDY even at lower relative levels and be perceived as being sourdough in nature even if isn't a true sourdough flavor. Peter
How long have you been making pizzas...did this just now start happening? What about other peoples pizza...do you ever eat out or have you ever had a store bought frozen pizza...same peculiar taste?
Check this out. This member says his dough has a sour flavor to it. http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,21481.0.html
I think he was misunderstood in that thread.And I believe he was meaning "smell" when he would say "flavor".Also, what the other posters didn't seem to understand was that he already used a purchased dough(which didn't smell) and he was now looking to start using his own dough but needed help getting his dough to not smell. His sentence structure was a 'lil confusing...Bob
James,I have played around with sour dough pizzas and also the Luigis pizza. Steve and I never tasted any sourdough taste when I made the Luigis pizzas and I used Crystal Geyser water and other waters.I really think your taste buds are a little different (which really isnt a bad thing, but might make you taste differently than others). I really dont think the type of sugar you use has anything to do with the sourdough taste either. I have tried NY water, my well tap water, markets well water and other bottled waters in my different pizzas and really never tasted a sourdough taste without really using a starter.What type of controlled experiments do you want to try? Norma
Thanks for your input Norma. Just in terms of controlled experiment I mean take notes of different waters and different sugar and flour types as well as fermentation times and bake times to see what different results I might have. This could take months because I won't be making pizza every week. Maybe more weeks than others but not all weeks.
Those are good questions.I have been making pizza for about 7 years now but have not been making on a regular basis for about 5 years. I do eat out and there are some fine pizza places I go to. When I first started this thread I asked about this because I didn't think it was because of my tasting abilities. I am a supertaster that's for sure but I thought it had nothing to do with that and thought it was something in the way I was doing things because in the past my own pizzas didn't give me the sour flavor and when I go to pizza joints I didn't get that flavor too. I thought it must be something I am doing wrong but then I didn't do anything different than anyone who does make pizza does so why does it taste sour so I thought maybe it's because I am a supertaster but truthfully I don't think it is the supertaster thing but I can't figure out what.
I'm not sure that you will get much from controlled experiments if you can't ascertain for sure that what you are tasting is in fact "sour."A more telling controlled experiment might be to make your normal dough and cut it side-by-side with a similar dough made from a bona fide sourdough culture.CL
Throw everything out and make a new batch of dough. And see if it tastes super....
James,I have some Ischia starter in my fridge now, but it isnt active. If you want me to feed it and then dry some, I would be happy to send you some to try to see if you can taste the differences in making dough and the final pizza with a starter compared to how your pizzas taste now. You would need to understand how to fed the starter once it is activated again from a dried state and also understand how to use the preferment dough calculation tool at http://www.pizzamaking.com/preferment_calculator.html You also have to be able to understand or be willing to experiment with different amounts of preferment in a dough. Using a preferment sure isnt as easy as using IDY or ADY. You would also need to watch the starter to see when it is ready to be used and also to see when it is really active. Norma
James,Did you have a chance to try out the dried-out Ischia starter I sent you? If you need more help on activating it, or don't understand what to do with the starter let us know.Norma
I have not made pizza yet because I became ill when I first started my job but they wanted me to go to work as long as I could handle it. They were not afraid of getting sick. I had a cold that lingered for a month. So I was tired and sick but didn't do much of anything outside of work. Now I am ready to make the pizza.I am really curious how the starter will make the dough taste. Could you give me some instruction on how to use the starter? I did some research but I am kind of confused on that. I want to make pizza and want to make it but want to make sure I don't mess up the nice starter you gave me.Thank You,James

Blackwater is a book about how the military contractor firm grew during the early 2000s during the Iraqi war efforts. It details some of the methods used by this company during the war as well as some of its business tactics that enabled it to become one of the largest armies in the world. There is also speculation about corruption and political policies and agendas that led to the rise of the organization. The author argued that the growth of the business and drive came from Republican mantras and catered toward the idea of war.

How to Choose between Wiley CPA Excel and Gleim Review Course March 8, 2015
Before any purchases a CPA review course, they always have questions if the review guide will actually prepare them for the CPA exam or not. If you are contemplating taking the exam and becoming a certified public accountant, you should take a careful look at all of the different courses that are out there. There are two courses that tend to stick out to most candidates: Wiley's CPA Excel review prep course and the Gleim review guide.
First, let's look at the Wiley course. They have done a really good job integrating all of their newly developed technology into their flagship course. The platinum course includes everything from video lectures and flash cards to useful study tips and calendars to keep track of your studying. It's one of the most useful courses out there simply because it has everything and it is laid out in a very logical manner. Each section is broken down into bite sized learning segments, so you can remember what you are studying without going back over everything ten times.
The Gleim CPA Review Prep Course, on the other hand, is a course that allows people to utilize the largest test bank in the industry. Candidates can practice taking test questions for days with more than 10,000 multiple-choice questions available. There are also video lectures and even a short PDF about test taking strategies and ways to increase your CPA exam score by almost 4 points simply by paying more attention.
There is no clear winner here. Both of the review guides are great and will prepare you for your big day. Look at both of them and see which on will work for you.Comments (0)
Is Fast Forward Academy the new CPA Exam standard? March 5, 2015
The CPA exam test prep industry goes back as far as the certified public accountant exam itself. There are many companies like Becker CPA that have been around since the 1950s and have developed a large following. Some people would even consider these companies as industry leaders or standards in the industry. The problem with that assumption is that the CPA exam test itself along with the candidates who take the test are changing. Some of the older companies can't keep up with the changes because they have their roots so structured in the past.
That is why many people are calling the Fast Forward Academy CPA review prep course the new industry standard. Fast Forward is a newer company that was created with one purpose: to speed up people's learning and enable them to study faster. It's a company that prides itself in innovation and creativity in an industry that has largely embraced older models of learning. The key to FFA's success is it's patented intuitive approach to learning. It shows candidates what they need to learn and hides the things that they already know. This way people are always practicing problem areas rather than reviewing material that are already familiar.
Fast Forward offers a full range of course options including a complete video lecture series as well as study text, notes, a huge test bank, and even an interactive guide. Candidates will also benefit from the way the test scores and questions are organized. The system automatically suggests questions and topics that are relevant and will help explain problem areas. It's truly a custom one size fits all review prep guide. This course is not only a leader in innovative learning; it's a leader in the industry. The approach that FFA is taking to help candidates pass their exams is the future of professional exams. They will continue to grow and succeed because of their innovation.Comments (0)
Why become a CPA?
There are many different professions that appear to college students. The most commonly referred to ones are doctors and lawyers. Many people over look accountants because they are typically considered nerds or bean counters and don't really fit in with the other cool professions. I can tell you that this idea is dead wrong. Now back in the day, there were reasons why the accounting industry got its reputation of being nerds, but the modern certified public accountant industry is much different than the one 30 years ago.
Modern firms pride themselves in being hip and recruiting individuals who want to have fun and learn more about the world of public accounting. Contrary to popular belief, most big 4 accounting firms are actually hiring based on personality, drive, and individuality rather than book and academic smarts. This might sound counterintuitive, but it's true. This is the same philosophy that many tech companies have taken when recruiting new applicants. They have found that a more creative and lively group of individual tend to work better together and produce better results than the classic nerd group.
If you are thinking about becoming a CPA or going into public accounting, I would encourage you to start your certified public accountant's journey today. The world of public accounting is extremely beneficial with endless possibilities and place you can go. Look into taking CPA exam classes today.Comments (0)

Large and medium-sized "school districts in the South have steadily resegregated" when freed from court supervision, according to a Stanford School of Education study published in the fall issue of the Journal of Policy Analysis and Management.
"Many of the gains that resulted from the Brown decision are being lost," said Sean Reardon, a professor of education at Stanford and lead author of Brown Fades: The End of Court-Ordered School Desegregation and the Resegregation of American Public Schools.
Suburban schools are failing to integrate disadvantaged minority students, concludes a new book, The Resegregation of Suburban Schools, edited by Erica Frankenberg and Gary Orfield. "The United States today is a suburban nation that thinks of race as an urban issue, and often assumes that it has been largely solved," write the editors. Not so.

Mammoth Partner Highlight
The Snowmastodon Project at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science
In October 2010, just after the inaugural National Fossil Day, a sharp-eyed bulldozer operator working near a Colorado ski area uncovered the bones of a young female mammoth. Over the next 10 months, the Denver Museum of Nature & Science (DMNS) conducted the largest excavation in its 112-year history, yielding a treasure trove of Ice Age fossils. Museum crews uncovered 5,500 bones of 41 kinds of animals, including mammoths, mastodons, ground sloths, tiny rodents, camels, deer, horses, giant bison, even a tiger salamander! The quality of the fossils startled the scientists. A finely preserved series of high-alpine ecosystems had protected the specimens, a rare event, making this one of the most significant science discoveries ever made in Colorado.
This fall marks the second anniversary of the discovery of the Snowmastodon Project® site outside Snowmass Village, Colorado. A 40-member science team representing the DMNS, the U.S. Geological Survey, and academic institutions in North America and Europe are studying evidence from the site. Labs from California to England have samples of bones, plants, insects, sediment, and biomolecules. In June 2012, the scientists gathered for the first time since the excavation to share preliminary findings. The team will continue to study evidence from the Ice Age site until their collective results are ready to be published.
The science team is reconstructing a diverse ecosystem that will reveal what the Pleistocene looked like at high elevations in the Rocky Mountains. The Snowmastodon site was found in a buried eleven-acre lake and bog that existed during the Ice Age. Many of the fossil animals and plant species found have never been seen at that high of an elevation. The site was formed during a glacial period about 130,000 years ago, creating a moraine that in turn shaped and dammed the small lake basin. The lake and bog had neither a water inlet nor an outlet. Like a giant pickle jar, the liquid brine came only from rain and snow that fell in a catchment area of no more than twenty-five acres. Sediments in the ancient basin came exclusively from debris flows and from silt and finer sediments that fell over the area as windblown dust. These processes beautifully preserved this unique site and the spectacular specimens.
The DMNS conservation team examined and stabilized every bone pulled from the ground. The conservationists paid special attention to the water-logged state in which the bones were found. Fossils are typically not saturated in water for thousands of years. The team carefully air-dried the bones, checking the relative humidity daily, because drying the bones too slow results in mold growth and drying them too fast results in cracking. Preservation has been careful and intentional, and the specimens have reacted well to their post-excavation environment. All the loose bones are dried and numbered. Some of the mastodon and mammoth tusks remain in their plaster jackets to dry a bit longer because of their fragility. Every single bone is being closely studied and classified. Iconic specimens of a skull of the giant Bison latifrons, a claw from a Jefferson's ground sloth, and jaws from Columbian mammoth and American mastodon are now on exhibit at the DMNS.
DMNS scientists and volunteers are also meticulously searching for the tiniest Ice Age animals by picking through thousands of pounds of dirt and sediment from the site. The process involves rinsing the dirt through framed metal screens with millimeter-size openings. The water washes away most of the fine sand, silt, and clay, leaving behind a residue that is examined through a dissecting microscope to reveal the teeny treasures—hundreds of amphibian bones and rare fragments of mammal jaws and teeth with shiny enamel.
Public interest in the Snowmastodon Project has been among the most remarkable outcomes of the discovery. Open-house displays of the bones have attracted thousands of people. Teachers from communities near Snowmass Village were trained to participate in the dig and have since assisted with public outreach. The popular book Digging Snowmastodon by lead scientists Kirk Johnson and Ian Miller chronicles a first-hand account of the events that made the discovery an international sensation. The NOVA television special "Ice Age Death Trap," which follows the scientists as they race against time to complete the excavation, attracted 6.3 million viewers nationwide when it premiered on PBS.
The Snowmastodon Project is a testament to the need for continuing education and awareness of our nation's fossil resources. The bulldozer operator who unearthed the bones and recognized them as fossils may not have been trained as a paleontologist, but he apparently understood the significance of his find, which has become of immeasurable scientific and educational value.

I have been drinking exceptional puerh lately, and I have noticed that on older tea, usually 10 or more years, there is a fine white layer on top of the liquor. It is usually only there for a little bit, and then goes away. If I blow on it lightly, it changes pattern, or heavily then it flies off only to rebuild in a moment.
The patterns are complicated, shifting, and have strange, jerky movement to them (like watching the water-skimming bugs from creeks in Georgia as a kid). I asked my puerh guy, and he said (in Korean) that it is Eun Moo, or "Cloud and Fog." I think this is the Korean name. I have seen it on many mid-to-older teas, but this weekend I had a sheng from the early 70s, and it was the thickest, most beautiful one yet. I took a video, which I will try to get on youtube and post later.
Does anybody know what I am talking about? Have you seen it? Can anyone actually explain what it is? There are some interesting physics in play here, but I just can't wrap my brain around it. Thanks!

What are Stem Cells?
Stem cells are considered to be the body's "master" cells because they create all other tissues, organs, and systems in the body. The stem cells found in cord blood are the building blocks of your blood and immune system and most readily reproduce into:
Red Blood Cells - which carry oxygen to all the cells in the body
There are three sources where stem cells are commonly found and they are:
The ability of cord blood stem cells to differentiate, or change into other types of cells in the body is a new discovery that holds significant promise for improving the treatment of some of the most common diseases such as heart disease, stroke, and Alzheimer's.
There are many exciting advances happening with stem cells. Right now, doctors are focusing on newborn stem cells and their potential to: • Regenerate brain cells—to treat Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease • Repair nerve cells—to heal brain and spinal cord injuries or brain damage caused by stroke • Regenerate cells to form new blood vessels—to treat heart and circulatory disease and to • Replace damaged cells—to improve recovery from cardiovascular disease, a heart attack, or injury. By saving your newborn's stem cells, you provide your child with options to benefit from these emerging therapies.
Although they are routinely discarded, newborn stem cells have unique biology that is important in medical treatments. Newborn stem cells are 8-10 times more proliferative than adult cells, and are much more compatible with family members versus adult cells. For example, siblings are twice as likely to be compatible with their newborn cells compared to their same adult stem cells. And unlike adult cells, newborn stem cells are "healthy" in that they have not been exposed to viruses, pollution, or disease in the vast majority of cases.

I have used the 90 softgel version previosly, and this offers much better price & quality ratio. For 21 dollars this is a bargain! This stuff really works. I take one CLA capsule before every meal (2-3 softgels per day), and I exercise 2-3 times a week, and trying keep a healthy diet (I've been doing this before I started taking CLA). From what I have read, for some people CLA works like magic, and for some people it doesn't help at all. I'm glad this has worked with my case. :)

James McCartney: 'I'm Open to Beatles: The Next Generation'
Paul's son wants to form band with children of John, George and Ringo
By Rolling Stone
April 3, 2012
http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/ ... n-20120403
Paul McCartney's son James has told the BBC (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-17547939) that he is interested in teaming up with the sons of his father's former bandmates to form The Beatles: The Next Generation. "I don't think it's something that Zak [Starkey] wants to do," says McCartney. "Maybe Jason [Starkey] would want to do it. I'd be up for it. Sean [Lennon] seemed to be into it, Dhani [Harrison] seemed to be into it. I'd be happy to do it."
McCartney, 34, is furthering his solo career by performing soon at the Cavern Club in Liverpool, the old stomping grounds of his father's band. The rocker says he chose to play there because he wants to "just to embrace the Beatles legacy rather than running away from it."
McCartney has collaborated with his father in the past. Paul served as producer on his son's two EPs, and the younger McCartney played guitar on the elder's albums Flaming Pie and Driving Rain.
