HILLSVILLE — A suspect in a Sept. 12 hit-and-run wreck and an abduction now faces additional charges after being caught Sunday, according to Virginia State Police.
HILLSVILLE — Investigators believe that an unknown subject dumped the contents of a mobile methamphetamine lab in an alley behind Hillsville Town Hall on Thursday, according to Hillsville police.
Police received a call from a town maintenance worker about some suspicious materials found in shrubs in an alley near a town parking lot on Mill Street, said Capt. James Alderman. The worker did not approach the items, but notified authorities.
HILLSVILLE — Authorities on Friday continued their search for the suspect from a Thursday afternoon hit and run and abduction that happened in Carroll County, according to Virginia State Police.
Troopers have identified Joseph Beuford Lee Mabe as the suspect who got involved in a motor vehicle accident in the Oak Grove section of Carroll, according to State Police First Sgt. Mike Musser.
HILLSVILLE — Virginia State Police charged a 34-year-old Galax woman Monday after she entered Interstate 77 going the wrong way and caused a crash.
Merleen Sanchez was driving a 2001 Nissan Maxima at approximately 2:35 a.m. near the 8.8 mile marker, going south in the northbound lanes, according to a report by Trooper Matt Cochran.
The Maxima struck head-on a 2002 Hyundai Elantra driven by Muhammad Tahir of Charlotte, N.C.
The report listed one injury as a result and $9,000 worth of damage to each of the vehicles.
A Galax woman was charged with reckless driving and defective equipment on Monday afternoon, following a vehicle accident involving personal injury to a moped driver.
INDEPENDENCE — Last week, Gov. Bob McDonnell awarded $6 million in School Security Equipment Grants to improve safety and security for students and teachers in 459 Virginia schools and regional education programs, including Grayson County
The school division was awarded a $50,536 grant to be used at five schools.
The grants will pay for security equipment, including video monitoring systems, metal detectors, electronic-access controls, visitor-identification systems and communications systems providing direct links between schools and law enforcement agencies.
HILLSVILLE — A 33-year-old Cana man allegedly demanded a ride from a Pizza Hut patron on Labor Day and, when she refused, police say he tried to steal her purse.
The unidentified victim resisted and got assistance to turn her alleged assailant, Daniel Eric Brame, over to Hillsville police officers, according to Chief Greg Bolen.
The incident occurred at about 10 p.m. on Sept. 2, when Brame allegedly approached the victim and asked her to drive him somewhere.
In light of community backlash against the recent introduction and enforcement of new speed limits in Galax, city officials are publicly standing by the changes.
City Manager Keith Barker explained the reasons behind the decision to alter several speed limits in the area, including a reduced speed from 45 to 35 mph to the East Stuart Drive stretch and a reduction from 35 to 25 mph on West Stuart Drive.
The Gazette is partnering with local police departments to publish photos of suspects arrested and charged.
HILLSVILLE — Alleged ongoing harassment led to charges of race-related assault being placed against three Carroll County men after an Aug. 30 incident, according to Sheriff J.B. Gardner.
Deputies first became aware of a disturbance at approximately 11 p.m., when a Training Center Road resident called 911 and spoke to sheriff's office dispatcher Neil Anderson, a Carroll Sheriff's Office news release says.

What would cause my 1996 Fleetwood Brougham to over heat? We have changed the radiator, water pump, temp sensor, thermostat, radiator hoses. We haven't checked the Fan clutch or timing. As far as I know the Head gasket is still good. There are no signs of a blown head gasket. We also do not know how to check or adjust the timing on this car. Can some one please help me.

BILLIONAIRE dinosaur handler Clive Palmer insists he will be staging a golf tournament at Coolum next year but retaining the Australian PGA may already be a lost cause.
Palmer's team put a revised offer to PGA of Australia officials late on Friday to continue hosting of the tournament in 2013, yet an erratic partnership with the flamboyant resort owner has alienated golf powerbrokers enough already.
The search for a new tournament venue on the Gold Coast next year, possibly at Links Hope Island, is already well advanced, which will hose down Palmer's gung-ho position yesterday.
"I'm very confident the (Australian) PGA will be here for the next five years and I'm sure the PGA (people) know that," Palmer said in a rapid-fire media conference after unveiling a memorial to late US President John F. Kennedy beside the 9th tee.
Palmer made a rousing pitch to get player-power activated to keep the PGA at Coolum but, privately, players are angry that a tournament stop that has worked so smoothly for 11 editions has hit such terminal and unnecessary turbulence.
"Hope is still alive. It's the golfers who are playing who are more important than the (PGA) chief executive and his board. They know this is the best course to play and the best place to take their families for a recharge before they hit the difficult tours the next year," Palmer said.
Palmer's plan to expand with a dinosaur park for 180 crafted creatures beside the driving range at Palmer Coolum Resort reflects his admirable energy to build a Sunshine Coast attraction that has far more magnetism than just a golf course.
What has made PGA officials back off Palmer is his wish to host but not sponsor the event, ambush grass signage and the craziness of a backhoe being ready to rip up the 9th green when they were in dispute a week ago.
PGA of Australasia chief executive Brian Thorburn said on Tuesday that the tournament "won't be here" next year but yesterday he diplomatically embraced Palmer's verve.
"Its great that he is so passionate about golf and the Australian PGA Championship," Thorburn said.
"I can confirm that Palmer Coolum Resort submitted a revised offer (on Friday) to continue hosting the tournament beyond this year. We are committed to achieving the best possible outcome for the tournament and our players and the resorts offer will be considered by our board next Wednesday."
Palmer did hint that if the Australian PGA was lost, he would still pitch for a second-tier tournament.
"Look, we probably have to have some sort of tournament here for the people of the Sunshine Coast. It's important for the whole region," he said.
But he backed off any Kerry Packer-style pitch for a rebel event and trying to lure Tiger Woods and world No.1 Rory McIlroy with an open chequebook.
"I think we could but I'd say it's a 1 per cent chance because we have got to give the (Australian) PGA prominence," Palmer said.
"I don't thing we want to upset the nice people at the PGA."
"Sure, there has been change but change is a good thing. Jeff the dinosaur has been all around the world (via media exposure). Perhaps golf has been a bit mundane."

As a strike deadline approaches, Air Canada is coming out swinging by telling flight attendants to buck up and accept the unpredictable nature of their jobs.
"This departure from the routine is what makes the role attractive, and why we receive, on average, 25 applicants for every cabin crew member we hire," Susan Welscheid, Air Canada's senior vice-president of customer service, said in an internal letter to flight attendants.
Ms. Welscheid said that in choosing a career as a flight attendant, "some facts of life exist," including irregular work schedules, being called in on short notice, overnight shifts and delays due to unforeseen plane maintenance.
Air Canada's 6,800 flight attendants enjoy work rules that are "superior" to North American rivals, whether it be the number of days off each month or the system governing crew rest between route assignments, she wrote in the six-page letter.
Members of the Canadian Union of Public Employees, who rejected a tentative agreement last month, could go on strike as early as next Wednesday.
Jeff Taylor, president of CUPE's Air Canada component, said in an interview that employees are disenchanted by a payment system that they argue fails to fully compensate them for "duty days," notably ones involving domestic overnight shifts with layovers of almost five hours at an airport.
"Because of scheduling, some flights arrive late at night and have to depart first thing in the morning. Some members take their sleeping bags and pillows and sleep in the airport terminal," he said Wednesday, noting the issue of crew rest is especially important for members who are at the bottom end of the seniority list.
While such shifts account for less than 2 per cent of the carrier's daily flight attendant schedules, Mr. Taylor said they have come to symbolize what employees view as "abusive" work rules that often leave them feeling overworked and underpaid on certain shifts.
The union is envisaging a system of "duty days minus four hours," which would boost wages for domestic shifts that incorporate stopovers. Certain shifts last 13 hours, which currently pay out 6.5 hours of wages instead of nine hours proposed by CUPE. Air Canada covers the cost of hotel rooms on stopovers of five hours or more, and has offered to shave it to four hours or more.
Other sticking points include wage increases over a five-year contract, management's proposal to launch a low-cost carrier and plans to place new hires on defined-contribution pensions.
Ms. Welscheid said Air Canada management is disillusioned by the lack of progress in labour talks. "The tentative agreement represented an incredible amount of hard work done in good faith on the part of all involved," she wrote. "Even more disappointing was the fact that the deal rejected was an excellent one for our cabin crew, for the union and for the company."
She produced a table to show that a cabin crew member, age 55 with 30 years of service, garners $51,500 in salary, plus $27,880 in various benefits and pension contributions to boost the total annual compensation to $79,380. Air Canada flight attendants are among the highest-paid crew members in the North American airline sector, she said.
While CUPE members could walk off the job at 12:01 a.m. next Wednesday, Ms. Welscheid said she is still holding out hope for a negotiated deal. "I am very mindful of the enormity of the task ahead for all of us and the need to finalize our labour agreement in the shortest possible time," she wrote. "We have come an incredible distance together as a team and now is the time to continue building on this momentum."
In an effort to counter criticisms, Ms. Welscheid disputed union characterizations that there has been a steady stream of concessions over the past decade. Employees received pay hikes of 1.75 per cent in 2006, 1.75 per cent in 2007 and 2 per cent in 2008, and under the rejected tentative agreement, workers would have gained 12.6 per cent compounded over a five-year pact, she said.
As well, her letter said full-time workers reaped $2,125 each in extra compensation in 2010, including a $500 cash bonus, $500 worth of Air Canada shares and $1,125 for meeting on-time performance targets and consumer-oriented goals.Report Typo/Error

Just as the title says! ;-)
Personally, I love her pizzaz and style. She is certainly one of the new faces of US figure skating, but can she pull off a National Championship this season? She reminds me so much of Sarah at times, but she doesn't appear to have those nerves of steel Sarah was so famous for. Maybe this will be her year?
I will be watching her closely. I really like Kimmie and Alissa, but will always have a soft spot for Emily.

First Alert Forecast: Hazy sunshine, very warm
Today's severe weather threat is low across western Montana.
Very little change is expected in the forecast. High pressure will be the dominant feature through Saturday. Hazy sunshine and very warm to hot temperatures. High temperatures will be in the 80s in Butte and Bozeman and the low to mid 90s in Missoula and Kalispell. There is a slight chance of an afternoon thunderstorm across southwest Montana around Butte and Bozeman.
Smoke from wildfires in British Columbia and Washington will continue to be a nuisance through the end of the week. This morning the air quality is being reported as moderate for most areas. However, it is unhealthy for sensitive groups in Butte and West Yellowstone.
Temperatures this weekend will be in the upper 70s and 80s with the possibility of a few showers and storms on Sunday.

Is 7.8 Obama's October surprise or is it a gift from BLS donors?
Last Friday morning's jobs report by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is being met with skepticism. The report found that, from August to September, the unemployment rate dropped from 8.1 percent to 7.8 percent. The Labor Department said Friday that employers added 114,000 jobs in September.
In fact, when Labor Secretary Hilda Solis appeared on CNBC this morning, the first two questions for her were whether the books have been cooked: Solis called the charges insulting and "ludicrous."
Douglas Holtz-Eakin, a former economics adviser to John McCain and the former head the Congressional Budget Office, calls the numbers "implausible."
"September unemployment rate fell to 7.8 percent due to an extraordinary – but implausible – estimate of 873,000 jobs in household survey," said Holtz-Eakin on Twitter.
And the Wall Street Journal warns that these numbers should be taken "with a grain of salt."
Why would anyone question these statistics? Well, at least two economists at the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) have contributed to President Barack Obama's campaign. Harley Frazis of Bethesda, Md., has contributed at least $2,000 to Obama and $9,000 to the Democratic National Convention over the last three election cycles. During his time at BLS, Harley has published a number of papers including his most recent, "How to Think About Time-Use Data: What Inferences Can We Make About Long-and Short-Run Time Use from Time Diaries?"
Stephen Phillips of Washington, D.C., has contributed at least $270 to Obama during the 2012 cycle. According to his LinkedIn profile, Phillips served as an economist at BLS between June 2009 and July 2012. Phillips was responsible for examining the impact of Obamacare on Healthcare North American Industry Classification System indices.
Skeptics are wondering how a decline in the unemployment rate for September could be so different from the trend over the last few months. Some charge that is just a political slight of hand by the administration to "cook the books."
I wonder if these numbers will be revised after the election or before, as has often been the case in the BLS reporting of the unemployed.
All of this politicking, if that's what it is, could have something to do with the fact that no standing president has been elected with the unemployment rate above 8 percent.

Smith students who have participated: Maia Nikitovich '12.
Maia writes: "Volunteering at Sacred Earth Trust was an invaluable experience. It provided me the opportunity to protect the sacred site of Bodh Gaya through environmental activism yet I also felt I was making a difference on a micro level with the local and tourist community. I am confident my work was integral to fostering the seeds for positive change in various areas of life in Bodh Gaya, not only environmentally, but economically and personally as well. There are many ways to help; one can work with children in school, with the local women's project, with the various monasteries through clean up programs, or by creating and advertising green information through pamphlets, flyers, and posters. Because Bodh Gaya is one of the most important pilgrimage spots for Buddhists, it's a great place to volunteer for interested religion majors. It also helps out a lot with the local community, doing educational work in schools, and supplying local women with means of income and independence. I highly recommend this opportunity for anyone interested in building a relationship with India, in protecting the earth, and in embarking on a spiritual journey, Buddhist or otherwise."

Elizabeth Johnson Sentence in Baby Gabriel Case
With good behavior Elizabeth Johnson will most likely be released in about a year. At one point Johnson faced as much as 27 years before defense attorney Marc J. Victor took over the case after 3 other attorneys were fired by Ms. Johnson.
A judge has sentenced Elizabeth Johnson, the mother of missing "Baby Gabriel", to 5.25 years in prison followed years of probation, minus time served.
The judge said just after 5 p.m. Friday that Johnson has already served 1,062 days, so she will serve the remaining 2 1/3 years in prison.
After prison, she will serve 4 years of probation. Johnson's attorney said, she could get released in 1.25 years if she has good behavior.
Elizabeth Johnson, 26, was convicted in October of custodial interference and unlawful imprisonment in the Christmastime 2009 disappearance of her then-8-month-
Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Joseph Kreamer also sentenced Johnson to four years of probation when she is released. She'll receive credit toward her prison sentence for the nearly three years that she has served in jail since her arrest.
Elizabeth has asked me to convey her thanks to the many people who have supported her through this ordeal. She remains deeply remorseful for her actions, and the extraordinary pain she caused, and continues to cause, to Logan's family. Elizabeth believes Gabriel is with a loving family, and she hopes someday Gabriel will either be found or will come forward. Elizabeth very much misses and loves Gabriel. Elizabeth was relieved by the sentence she received in court.
She plans to finish serving the balance of her time and to successfully complete her probation. She plans to devote her future to helping single mothers in crisis, and hopes to make a positive difference in the world by helping others avoid the mistakes she made. Although we asked the judge to impose probation on all three counts, we believe the judge's sentence was reasonable and fair. We expect Elizabeth to be released, with good behavior, in little more than one year. Overall, Elizabeth and her family are very pleased with the results of both the trial and sentencing.

The International Monetary Fund says Australia's largest four banks should be forced to raise billions of dollars in extra capital, a move that would hit profits, because of their dominance over the industry.
Raising concerns about aspects of the banking system, the Washington-based fund called for tougher stress tests to assess how the banks would manage a financial crisis like the one that hit after the Lehman Brothers collapse.
It proposed an upfront fee paid by banks to insure depositors' cash, a step designed to avoid expensive government bail-outs.
The report is unusually tough – Australia's banking system was praised around the world for surviving the 2009 financial crisis mostly in good shape.
Analysts said tougher protections for the banking system would hurt returns to shareholders and have a knock-on effect across the economy because banks make up a third of the sharemarket and a major source of dividend payments.
"The more capital a bank has, the more difficult it is to get an attractive return and therefore the lower the share price," said BBY bank analyst Brett Le Mesurier.
The IMF believes the dominance of the
Banking more Concentrated than other countries
That level of concentration is almost double the average of the largest four banks in other developed countries' bank systems, it says.
"Australia's financial sector faces a unique set of risks," the IMF said. "Its banking sector is concentrated, dominated by four large banks, and their broadly similar business models and reliance on offshore funding leave them exposed to common shocks and disruptions to funding markets.
"Against a still-worrying global environment, these risks will need to be closely monitored, particularly if the domestic economy slows sharply."
Higher capital reserves, which safeguard banks from rising bad debts, would help protect them from a sudden economic downturn or crisis.
It noted that Australia's financial system had grown rapidly, with assets at about 340 per cent of GDP, due to the expansion of home loans and tax-effective superannuation.
The report highlights risks to banking including high household debt, high property prices and the industry's dependence on volatile offshore funding markets.
The IMF's Financial System Stability Assessment was published on Friday after a visit to Australia between May and July by IMF officials.
Calls for greater transparency
The report calls for more transparency by the Council of Financial Regulators, including publishing the council's deliberations in the Reserve Bank of Australia's Financial Stability Review.
Stress testing of the biggest four banks and Macquarie Group by the IMF and Australian Prudential Regulation Authority suggests banks are likely to withstand severe shocks, including scenarios where there was a severe recession and bank-run type scenario.
Banks would require liquidity support from the RBA to withstand an extreme funding shock.
The IMF argues that the stress test process can be improved.
"There is a need for APRA to devote more resources to bottom-up stress testing to validate and cross check individual bank results and to ensure overall consistency.
"The RBA should consider establishing its own macro-financial stress testing framework, which could enhance its ability to identify and monitor emerging systemic risks," the IMF says.
APRA chairman
Currently, individual banks apply their own varied approaches to estimate losses given defaults (LGDs) and probabilities of defaults (PDs), and use data of different levels of granularity.
Analysis difficult for APRA
While they are required to apply APRA-determined credit migration matrices, the dispersion in banks' practice makes analysis difficult for APRA.
"Hence, there is a need for APRA to devote more resources to bottom-up stress testing to validate and cross check individual bank results and to ensure overall consistency."
While the IMF says Australia's banks are well capitalised with good asset quality, it says a higher capital threshold for the systemically important institutions is desirable to further bolster financial system stability.
"The four major banks are systemically important, which imposes a negative externality on the domestic financial system."
"Significant and protracted difficulties in any one of them would have severe repercussions for the entire financial system and, in turn, the real economy."
Big four should share cost of implicit guarantee
"The four major banks enjoy a funding cost advantage derived from an implicit government guarantee, and should bear some of the cost of mitigating systemic risk," it says.
International regulators are developing guidelines for domestic systemically important banks to take effect in 2016. The big four and Macquarie will qualify. APRA will consider adopting higher capital ratios, but is not necessarily wedded to the idea.Any move to further increase capital levels could restrict banks capacity to increase dividends to shareholders, particularly as their net interest margins come under pressure due to elevated funding costs and weak credit growth.
Analysis by Credit Suisse shows the big four banks, which have an average harmonised common equity ratio of about 10 per cent, are in the upper quartile for capital ratios compared to global peers, behind only Scandinavian banks.
They are already being forced to increase their capital levels under the global Basel III rules that will be phased in from next year.
"APRA's conservative approach on capital definitions means that Australian banks hold more capital than otherwise would be the case," Australian Bankers' Association chief executive Steven Münchenberg said.
No Australian bank was included on the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision's list of global systemically important financial institutions (G-SIFIs) which will be forced to hold extra capital.

I have built many alcohol stoves, but have never purchased one commercially. I am thinking of buying the Vargo Triad XE. Does anyone have any experience with these stoves? What are the strengths/weaknesses? I have looked for reviews at BackpackGearTest.org, but could find nothing. If someone know a good source for a review it would be greatly appreciated.Feb 21, 2007 at 12:51 am #1379422

@brett1234Locale: CA
Cameron, I read many reviews while researching my commercial alcohol stove purchases, and I ended up buying a Trangia and a Brasslite. I wanted to see how they compared to my pepsi and cat stoves. The Triad XE was reported to be weak and inefficient. Each stove has its proponents, and admittedly, I don't own the Triad.
A few comments on both:
The Trangia is the one I reach for first if Im cooking with alcohol. For a day hike I top it off, screw on the lid, and toss it in my pack (with the pot holder). It has a large capacity, the pot holder is wide and stable(accessory), and it can carry the fuel inside its body for single meals. For a lighter weight option, the lid and snuffer can be left at home if you carry a fuel bottle.
Additionally, it is a nice, heirloom quality brass instrument which will last longer than I do.
The Braslite has a convenient built in pot holder, but because that is a screen, it requires a separate wind screen. Also, it can not seal to carry fuel. Quality of construction is very poor; surfaces which should be flat are warped, the welds are sloppy, and the simmer ring is paper thin brass which will eventually fail due to metal fatigue. Ligher and weaker than the Trangia. Not something Id like to hand as a gift; looks really 'hobo'. Good thing is you can toss a burning esbit in there instead of alcohol. Honestly, a super cat with some gutter mesh attached with a pipe clamp would probably be just as good (just an untested theory, although my super cat boils as quickly as my Braslite).
Hope this helps.

If you end up not liking the burner, the stove stand works great with Esbit or any short (3cm or less) alcohol stove such as Tinny's Mini Bull Designs SSBIT or NION (I use an older SST), a Cobra, a Penny, or a Pepsi-G. The stove base has a deep cup that helps primed stoves to start reliably, and it weighs less and takes less room than my hardware-mesh stands.Feb 22, 2007 at 8:16 pm #1379730

I own a Triad XE. I purchased it for its ability to use both alcohol and solid tab fuels. The base is fantastic, the alcohol stove portion sucks. Sometimes it will burn for a long time, sometimes only a few minutes, sometimes hot, and sometimes not very well at all (may take several attempts to get stove burning). It took me awhile to figure out how to get the stove started when using alcohol, and when I got the hang of it, the burn time and temp was very inconsistant. You are also stuck with using a pot that is about 5" in diameter, so a Snow Peak 600ml mug is out of the question the flame shoots out to the side too far to heat the mug, instead you heat your wind screen. Even when using a Evernew .9 liter pot the flame, on occasion, will exceed the pot base and melt the handle insulation.
I now have a Brasslite Turbo F (no longer manufactured) and a Firelite Titanium Wing Stove. These two stoves combined weigh less than the Triad XE. The Turbo F is (IMO) the most fuel efficient alcohol stove that I've ever used. The Turbo F is a stripped down version vs. other Brasslite models. No simmer sleeve and weighs only .8 oz and has a built on pot support.

The Mason Brothers are a Richmond, Virginia based duo, who, when not in their day jobs as university professors, release some damn good folk music perfect for fans of Nick Drake or Iron & Wine. While James Mason (the Writing professor) released acclaimed solo album Carnival Sky in 2003, The Sun, the Moon, & the Sea is the brothers' first full-length album (although a second will be released later in 2008). Here James splits songwriting duties with brother Christian (the Applied Mathematics prof/ lap steel guitarist/mandolin picker extraordinaire). While musically the songs are rather nondescript, the oft-whispered lyrics are stunning in their simple, yet powerful imagery of both nature and the existential crisis of the human condition. From "Ghost at the Wheel": "Perched by the window / Staring down a drowning sun / A soldier grounds his bloody blade / And bids the dead a job well done." Not convinced yet? Here's the next verse: "Strangers roll by / Shake their heads and move right along / But you just sit there / Hood up hazards on." Folkies, don't pass this one by; The Sun, the Moon, & the Sea is one of the best folk/acoustic records to come along in some time. So in honor of the Mason Brothers' other career, I'm awarding this album a Rate My Professor style happy face. And looking at the photos in the liner notes, the boys also get a chili pepper (which, for those of you non-shallow types, is the website's signifier of hotness).

Resident Bill Lochte has a personal passion for Advanced Health Care Planning. Bill's brother Russ who was living in Alabama discovered he had an aneurysm in his heart. "Russ told me that everything in his life was in order and that he was in good shape because he had a living will," according to Lisa Becker, Case Manager at Ministry Eagle River Memorial Hospital (MERMH). "A living will is a more limited type of directive because you can only make decisions about life-sustaining procedures in the event that your death is imminent. The Advance Directive provides you with many more options, including the naming of a health care agent – someone to speak on your behalf when you are not able."
On January 6, 2007 Russ had surgery and proceeded to spend the next five months in intensive care. Bill tried to keep track of what was happening with Russ from his home in Eagle River. But in March Bill packed his things and went to Alabama to see his brother. "The dynamics between seeing my brother connected to all these machines was emotionally devastating. Russ was a vital individual full of life and to see him in this degenerative state was shocking."
Russ had a team of eight physicians and was on kidney dialysis and a ventilator. He was obviously not getting better and was not conscious. Bill wondered how someone could be in intensive care so long, so he took the initiative to review his brother's living will. "It looked appropriate to me, but then realized that it did not name an advocate or a spokesperson to speak for him in case he was unable to make his wishes known himself. The physicians were unclear about the intent of the document and kept him on life support. "I kept meeting with the physicians," advises Bill, "but they could not give me any type of timeline or prognosis, the days just went on and on for Russ. I wanted to mourn, but could not move on. Mourning is special time, and this was not like that, it was debilitating. I had no influence, nor control of the outcome. This was an agonizing time for me. I loved my brother and had to stand by helpless and watch him fade away."
"The living will gave no clear directions on when to stop treatments. Russ had bed sores and could do absolutely nothing for himself. I wanted my brother to die with dignity," Bill continued.
According to Becker, "Now more than ever, health care providers and patients need to have the conversation about having Advance Directives for Health Care in place."
"Russ and I never discussed end-of-life decision making. Russ thought he was bullet proof," shared Lotche. During those long five months that Russ was in the intensive care unit (ICU), Bill began thinking about his brother's funeral with military honors. He needed to do something concrete when all around him was uncertainty.
Bill said that the services and staff in the ICU were incredible. "Everyone was doing their job, keeping IV's going and treatments, but yet no one was really doing their job by asking if we were doing the right thing for my brother." Three weeks later Bill's brother died of heart failure. "This was agonizing for me. I loved my brother and was totally helpless." Bill went on to add, "We need to educate patients and families so they know what they may face and what decision they will be asked to make. We need to help health care professionals so they are able to honor and respect the patient's wishes. You never want to pre-empt a life, and with Advance Care Directives in place you will not play a guessing game. Your wishes will be spelled out and your designated health care advocate can interact with physicians to make sure your decisions are followed."
"The touching story Bill has shared is far too common," states Lisa Becker who – in addition to her role as case manager at MERMH – also serves as a Northwood's Respecting Choices© Advance Care Planning advocate. Northwood's Respecting Choices© Advance Care Planning is a coalition of health care professionals and volunteers in the Eagle River community. According to Becker, "The purpose of the coalition is to ensure that all adults with decision-making capacity have the information and opportunity to communicate and document their health care decisions. "The group offers free workshops held the first and third Friday of every month at 10:30 a.m. at MERMH, Medical Arts Building.
"Advance Health Care Planning can offer precious clarity and increased health care efficiency, yet most Americans have not exercised this valuable right, stated Becker. "National Health Care Decision Day – observed April 16 – is intended to heighten public awareness. As Bill's story tells us, it is important to be prepared and to prepare your loved ones before a time of illness," Becker continued.
Bill concluded, "If my story can encourage one person to have these documents in place, I know that telling my story has been beneficial. Russ loved people, and knowing that his experience may help someone else not go through what he did – what we did, would make him very proud."

Joe Cole thinks West Ham will benefit from their early return to action.
The Hammers are the only one of London's Premier League clubs to have played pre‑season friendlies so far and tomorrow they go to Bournemouth for their third match of the summer.
Manager Sam Allardyce has used the games against Cork City and Boreham Wood to give all his squad some game time, making wholesale changes at half-time.
That has pleased Cole, who has targeted a top‑half finish for the Hammers this term.
"It's been good," said Cole (above). "We are only eight or nine days in and we have already played two lots of 45 minutes.
"I think the ambition of the club at the moment is improvement. But, for me personally, I would love to finish better than 10th. Equally I'd love to take this club to Wembley because at the end of the day, they are the days you remember in your career."

text: Going to replace both front caliper tomorrow (only one is sticking but best practice says do both). My question is about bleeding. I've read here to start at the drivers rear and bleed each caliper rotating counter clockwise. My gut tells me to bleed each caliper as I do them and finish off with the sequence above as the last pass so to speak. Or should I just do both calipers (not bleeding in between) and bleed them once after both calipers are installed. What is the proper way to bleed the brakes when changin both front calipers? As always you guys are great and thanks for any reply.

(TOKYO) — New reports say Japanese officials hid documents that laid out the worst-case scenario during the Fukushima nuclear disaster last year because they didn't want to scare the public.
Kyodo News reports that government leaders feared the plant's crippled reactors could release massive quantities of radioactive materials for about a year. That would have forced millions to evacuate – but one Japanese official says "the content was so shocking that we decided to treat it as if it didn't exist."
More than 80,000 people in the Fukushima area remain displaced because of radiation concerns.

Jeanne Delores Roberts, daughter of Black billionaire Michael V. Roberts, Sr., wed her special guy, Jay Christian Johnson, on August 30, 2008, in Nassau, Bahamas.
By Charreah Jackson
Read Jeanne and Jay's love story
Check out these wedding albums:
Lori and Paul
Nana and Akinola
Katina and Royce
The more than 300 wedding guests received invitations that looked like passports for the Labor Day weekend wedding.
"I knew I wanted a destination wedding," the St. Louis bride says. "And doing the event on a holiday weekend allowed for my guests to make it a mini vacation."
Jeanne's mom, also named Jeanne, finishes prepping the custom Lea Ann Belter gown. The duo saved tens of thousands of dollars by planning the entire event themselves.
Jeanne had ten bridesmaids and ten hostesses for her special day. Here, they help her put the final touches on her look. Pink and green was a natural color combination for the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., member.
Jeanne's twin brother, Michael, escorts their mother down the aisle. The sister and brother share a special bond, including attending Spelman and Morehouse Colleges together, followed by the same law school. He plans to get married next spring.
Jeanne's cousin Candice Edwards and her good friend Keshia Knight Pulliam served as her maids of honor. Keshia and Jeanne met when they were freshman on the campus of Spelman College and became the best of friends.
The wedding was a jam-packed event with multiple affairs throughout the holiday weekend.
A 15-piece Bahamian band played at the special event, while The Visage provided music at the reception.
Jeanne's dad, recently spotlighted on CNN's Black in America II, walks her down the tropical aisle. Though she admits her two sisters are also Daddy's girls, she holds a special spot as his first daughter.
Jeanne and Jay make their bond official after exchanging vows. The bride admits she long felt connected to her husband.
"Mentally, we were already Mr. and Mrs. and the wedding was a celebration of that," she says.
"I still feel like I'm on the honeymoon," Jeanne admits, a year after her wedding. "It always feels too good too be true—but it's real."
Guests stayed cool from the hot tropic sun under a custom tent. Jeanne cut costs by using the same chairs from her ceremony inside at the reception.
Jeanne and Jay enter their reception ready to party. The two met through mutual buddies when Jeanne was in law school and became friends before growing to more.
The newlyweds start their first dance to Prince's "Adore," as Jeanne reflects on her special day.
"He was looking so handsome," she says. "He is an angel to me."
Jeanne's dad and boss, Michael V. Roberts, Sr. steps in to finish the dance.
Jeanne and Jay's reception was the largest in the history of the Atlantis Resort at The Cloisters in the Bahamas and featured this six-tier wedding cake.
Jeanne feeds her hubby their wedding cake. Now that they are reaching their one-year anniversary, Jeanne reflects:
"People say the first year is horrible, but it wasn't for us. When it's right it's not hard."
All the single ladies gather round for the bouquet toss which ended up being split between three guests.
Jeanne's parents have shown her the ropes for a healthy and happy relationship. Her mother, a former teacher turned movie executive, was also her wedding planner.
Some of Jay's friends leap high for the garter, while others shy away from the prospect of marriage.
Jeanne's cousin Judge Glenda Hatchett flew down for the special event and joins the newlyweds and the bride's parents.
Jeanne and her mom decided on the decorations themselves, using a pink and green island theme.
Wedding guests enjoy a Junkanoo parade, special to the Bahamas, to celebrate Jeanne and Jay's nuptials.
Jeanne is surrounded by her immediate family, including her two sisters, twin brother, parents and grandparents. The Roberts are one of America's few Black families of self-made billionaires.
Jay's mother Kathi Houston Berryman, left, and her husband James Berryman, along with Jay's dad Lawrence Johnson, Jr., right, and his wife Tracey Dowse traveled from Los Angeles for the special occasion.
The Johnson's spent a few more days in the Bahamas with their wedding guests before heading to Jamaica for ten days, which was one of their wedding gifts. Jay has come on board to work for the business of his new family.
Jeanne's sisters and her good friend Keshia Knight Pulliam served as her bridesmaids. Keshia and Jeanne met when they were freshman on the campus of Spelman college.

JOSEPH GREENE, JOE GREENE, TARPON JOE Beware of this online con artist who claims he can get funding for your new venture miami Florida
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
this is an online scammer who baits people telling he can get funding and writes crappy business plans and pitch deck. his work is garbage you cannot use with any real investors. stay away from him, instead save your money or hire others who write honest business plans and pitch deck without any false claims about getting you funding. stay away from him at all cost. he got fake reviews on freelance sites, and almost all of them are left by people thinking he can get them funding, and demands payment and declares project as completed.
he spends his time fishing, that's what he does instead of making sure his clients are taken care of properly. he's a total waste of time and money. you'll only be left frustrated in the end that too after wasting your precious time with this scammer.

Manoj is Lying
SUBMITTED: Friday, May 02, 2014POSTED: Friday, May 02, 2014
Manoj is just lying!!
He couldn't present a work history . . . or even references when asked.
He was seeking $5.0 MILLION from investors
I built him a great business plan and a killer pitch deck . . . and presented them to potential funding sources.
Manoj went crazy when the first money source asked for references and walked away when Manoj had no "bona fides".
Importantly, I have assisted numerous companies to obtain funding including ForSaleByOwner.com, Marx Toys, Inc, SolarSmart, BizTrader.com, others.
Additionally, Manoj's complaint failed-BIG TIME - at Elance. And. . . hea was afraid to go to arbitration!!
Manoj is a liar.

Tucker, Albin & Associates Unethical pressure to sign up Richardson Texas
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
This company called me this morning trying to get me to give them an account to collect - where we can't get the client to pay.
I slowly began to get give them the information about the client and they said the would look them up and told me I needed to act today, if I was to ever get this customer to pay. I was worried about give out this information to a cold call on the phone. He told me about their 50% fee and wanted to wait on the phone while I received his emailed contract. He tells me NO COLLECTION . . . NO CHARGE but that is not what the contract says exactly. As I was trying to get an understanding of their contract, Brandon Smith kept telling everything would be OK. Just sign the document and they would get to work. As I tried to have him understand that Dollar Signs dancing in my head would not be the reason I sign his contract but I needed time to read it, understand it and maybe send it to my Attorney for comment. I asked him to call me back after I performed my due diligence. He said he doesn't call people back, it is now or never. I said that was his choice. Call me back or forget it. He asked more questions about my concerns and kept trying to convince me I had nothing to worry about.
I said I would call him back after I did my due diligence. That was not acceptable to him! I told him that is exactly why I must hang up! He tried very hard to keep me on the phone, bobbing and weaving to try to make me feel like I was being unreasonable.
While he was on the phone, I googled the name of his company and began to see what kind of company it is. I finally told him I was hanging up and did. I am reporting this now to time stamp what happened so that if they try to come back at me, I can refer them here and they can see I authorized nothing. They have NO PERMISSION to work for me or my company. 11:10 AM June 3rd, 2013.
