The Marine Corps will soon stand up a crisis-response force, based in the United States, to respond to security challenges or humanitarian emergencies in the Caribbean and Central and South Americas.
Brig. Gen. David Coffman, commander of Marine Corps Forces South, said the U.S. could be just one earthquake or a few missteps away from a bad situation occurring in its own backyard.
"Although we're not on edge for crisis response or embassy support ... like we've seen in west North Africa or the Middle East — it could happen here, too," Coffman said.
For that reason, MARFORSOUTH will stand up a crisis response force — modeled after the one now forward deployed in Spain to deal with crises in Africa — to respond to embassy threats, evacuation needs, natural disasters and other contingencies in the Western Hemisphere, he said.
Maj. Dan Huvane, director of public affairs for MARFORSOUTH, said the number of Marines and sailors who will comprise the force in the Americas, and the date it will be stood up, are still being worked out. But the crisis response force for U.S. Southern Command will be based in the U.S., at least for now, he added.
It's not immediately clear where that might be, but MARFORSOUTH is headquartered in Miami.
As combat winds down in Afghanistan, Marine Corps leadership is touting crisis response as a core competency of the service. Shortly after SPMAGTF-Crisis Response left Camp Lejeune, N.C., for Morón, Spain, in April, Commandant Gen. James Amos said he hoped to stand up a similar, but smaller, unit for SOUTHCOM by the end of the year. In May, Marine Corps officials said a crisis-response force also is being considered for the Middle East and U.S. Central Command.
Traditionally, the larger Marine expeditionary units, typically comprising 2,200 to 2,400 personnel embarked with Navy amphibious ready groups, have provided sea-based crisis-response capabilities. In fact, there are three MEUs at sea now, one in Hawaii, one now in Australia and the western Pacific, and one in the Middle East. But budget cuts could lead to fewer sea-based options. These new, nimbler crisis-response units are land-based and operate largely independent of the Navy.
SPMAGTF-Crisis Response, which includes a small group at Naval Air Station Sigonella in Sicily, Italy, comprises 550 Marines, currently built around a reinforced rifle company. The task force deployed with six MV-22B Osprey helicopters and two KC-130J aerial refuelers.
Coffman said the Marine Corps recognizes that there are resource challenges in dollars and people, and it must continue to find other ways to provide crisis response.
"I was a MEU commander for almost four years," he said. "It is highly unlikely that a trained and certified ARG-MEU team is going to come park off South America and be prepared to respond across the continuum of conflict. ... We are finding other ways — in a fiscally austere environment when the big Navy is going to be unable to sail ships to all the corners of the Earth — to get at that work."

A BLACKBURN student has been accepted on to her dream degree course at a prestigious London art school.
Blackburn College art student Jessica Hayes is set to study for a BA Honours Degree in Drawing at Camberwell College of the Arts.
The 19-year-old, who achieved a distinction in her college diploma, recently had her final collection displayed as part of an exhibition by University of the Arts London (UAL) at the Chelsea School of Art.
The school's alumni boasts a number of Turner Prize winners including Howard Hodgkin and Malcolm Morley as well as celebrities including the Clothes Show's Jeff Banks, Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen and Oscar winning actor Tim Roth.
Jessica is now looking forward to moving in the country's foremost art circles after completing her art and design diploma at Blackburn College where she achieved a distinction.
The teenager, who describes her artwork as 'drawing with smoke', uses lit candles to create scorch and smudge marks on paper and turn them into portraits.
Her final collection was inspired by photos she took of children in a Capetown nursery school during a Blackburn College trip to South Africa earlier in the year.
The former Witton Park pupil put her successful application to Camberwell down to specialist support she received from her tutors.
She said: "I'd only been looking at art colleges in the north west and didn't think I really had a shot at any of the London schools, but my tutors encouraged me to apply.
"I'm over the moon – it's great to get on the course I really wanted".
The exhibition featuring her artwork included students from across the country who are studying for UAL qualifications.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla - - Twitter announced on Thursday that a new mobile service called Vine will be released, according to Mashable. Vine will allow users to create and share looping videos.
"Like Tweets, the brevity of videos on Vine (6 seconds or less) inspires creativity," the company said in an official blog post. "Now that you can easily capture motion and sound, we look forward to seeing what you create."
The service is currently only available for iOS phones. The stop motion style videos can include as many scenes that you can fit in. Once you are finished with the video, it can be shared only on Vine, or you can share it with your friends on Twitter...and allegedly Facebook.
It's still in the early stages, so the service won't be without some bugs to work out. For example, sharing the videos can only be done during initial upload so if you forget to select the Twitter button when you upload your video, your followers will not see the video.
Sound is also recorded along with each video clip. That's not such a big deal if you are in a quiet location, but when in loud, more noisy locations the sound can be choppy and jarring for the viewers.
And then, of course, there is the sibling rivalry going on between Twitter and Facebook. Within hours of it's launch, Facebook blocked Vine from being able to access your friends lists according to Mashable.
With a little fleshing out, and some communication with all social media platforms, Vine could be a fantastic addition to the world..,.and give another video creating app, Viddy, a run for it's money.

Hello everyone, please forgive my ignorance in regards to JS, it is certainly not my strong suit.
I am trying to install a JS countdown plugin (http://countdownjs.org/) on a blank Wordpress template, but for some reason, I can not get the it to display. I want to start a countdown clock, only counting by days, until March 31, 2014.
I am calling the countdown.js file from my root directory in the , and I have this code where I want the program to generate the result:
var timespan = countdown(start|callback, end|callback, units, max, digits);
countdown.ALL =
~countdown.MILLENNIA |
~countdown.CENTURIES |
~countdown.DECADES |
~countdown.YEARS |
~countdown.MONTHS |
~countdown.WEEKS |
countdown.DAYS |
~countdown.HOURS |
~countdown.MINUTES |
~countdown.SECONDS |
countdown.DEFAULTS =
countdown.YEARS |
countdown.MONTHS |
countdown.DAYS |
countdown.HOURS |
countdown.MINUTES |
countdown( new Date(2013, 3, 31) ).toString();
ts.toHTML() => "5 years, 1 month, 19 days, 12 hours, and 17 minutes"
Can someone please help me learn what I am doing wrong?
Do you have the firebug addon for firefox? Run your website in that and see what the javascript warning error message is. It might help you debug whatever is going wrong or at least point you in the right direction.
As far as I can tell, there is no obvious problems. The meta data is pointing to the right .js file, but I am not able to see anything.
Is there anything else that could be causing problems?
Thank you very much for your time and attention
Hey Joseph,
Do you have a link to the site you are trying this on?
Hey Pullo,
The site is http://TruckerMarketplace.com. The password is "driver88". Thanks for helping me look into it.
No probs
If you look at the main page in the console, you see:
Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token > truckermarketplace.com/:174
This seems to be caused by this:
ts.toHTML() => "..."
Try changing it to:
ts.toHTML() = "..."
I've got to turn in now (I'm ill), but if that doesn't work, post back here and I'll check back tomorrow.
Still having the same problems Nothing is showing up at all.
I hope you feel better Pullo.
I was able to make a plugin work for what I needed.
I hope you feel better.
Hey, that's cool. I was just looking at this now, so thanks for letting me know.
What was the problem?
Yeah, a bit better thanks - it is just a cold, so if I sleep more and spend less time at the PC then it should be fine.Although, that might be easier said that done ...

Fairfax County to Revisit Land/Building Allocations in Tax Assessments

Fairfax County to Revisit Land/Building Allocations in Tax Assessments
Appeal Deadline Extended to April 18
Based on feedback from the public and elected officials, the Department of Tax Administration (DTA) has announced it will take a second look at the allocation of the assessed value between land and buildings for 2008 assessments.
Earlier this year, DTA made significant shifts in the allocation of those tax assessments. Although this did not affect the bottom-line assessment, more value was reflected on the land and less was reflected on the house. The total assessment is determined first; after the total is determined, the assessment is then subsequently allocated between land and building. Changing the allocation will not change the total assessment.
"The shift between the parts this year may have been too much, too quickly," said DTA Director Kevin Greenlief. "Revised notices, as may be required, will be sent to property owners. Again, this is not expected to change the total assessment, but should in most cases address concerns about this year's shift."
This review is centered on improved single family (detached), residential property. Property owners do not need to file an appeal to challenge their land/building allocation. DTA will automatically conduct this review and will notify property owners directly of subsequent changes.
If residents believe their total property assessment is not in line with market data, they will still need to file an administrative appeal application with DTA. Given the changes in this year's assessment notice, DTA is extending the appeal deadline by two weeks, to April 18. However, residents are encouraged to file administrative appeals as early as possible if the total assessed value is not in line with market value so staff can review and respond prior to the Board of Equalization application deadline of June 2.
For more information, call the DTA Real Estate Division at 703-222-8234, TTY 711, or e-mail the division.

Drink Smarter
A lot of mindless calories come from sipping—not chewing. Besides adding extra pounds to your frame, chemicals and synthetic ingredients in sodas and other high-calorie drinks overwork your adrenal glands. Nutritionists recommend upping your water intake and swapping your soda or sugary energy drink habit for a healthful, antioxidant-rich one with no or low sugar like the new EBoost Super Berry Liquid Shot. "Its potent antioxidants from vitamin C, green tea, and pomegranate work together to enhance your immune system and help improve skin quality," says Sharon Richter, RD, CDN. "Keep a shot in your bag and you won't be as tempted to go for sweet snacks when your energy dips."
Get a Leg Up
The best workout is one that attacks the major muscle groups—big ones like the quadriceps—and increases your heart rate. "When you work the legs, the entire body gets a workout and it burns more calories," says Henry Richardson, owner of the new Define Body & Mind in Houston and former Exhale instructor. That means even if you have just a moment a few times a week, it's most crucial to work your legs. Richardson, whose classes combine ballet moves with yoga and Pilates, recommends doing ballerina-style pliés (deep knee bends with feet turned out) while simultaneously lifting heels off the ground—and holding the position to engage every muscle in your legs. "Do several until you feel the burn, for about three to five minutes," he says. And if you have a little more time, say 20 minutes, Kit Rich, a personal Pilates and fitness trainer in Los Angeles, advises doing a move like jump squats—a traditional squat with a small jump upon standing up—to get large muscles moving and accelerate heart rate.

text: yezu666 100 Report post Posted May 20, 2011 Hello! I've been trying to solve a (rather simple?) problem lately. I'm surprised I haven't been able to find anything really useful on the net so far. The thing is I have 3d direction vector. Use it to set the direction of an object in 3d space. To do that I need of course a transformation matrix. I have a function that properly calculates the LookAt matrix. However it is correct for the view transformation. I had no success in using it to calculate the rotation of the object. I have also tried using trigonometry using (assuming Y is up): [code] if(dir.getY() != 0.0f) xAngle = (float)Math.toDegrees(Math.atan((dir.getZ()*dir.getZ()+dir.getX()*dir.getX())/dir.getY())); if(dir.getZ() != 0.0f) yAngle = (float)Math.toDegrees(Math.atan(dir.getX()/dir.getZ())); TransformationMatrix.calculateRotationMatrix(xAngle, yAngle, 0.0f); [/code] However this does produce proper results only in certain situations. Can anybody suggest a solution? Thanks a lot 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Raw milk is at the center of a Campylobacter outbreak that has sickened at least four people on the Kenai Peninsula in Alaska. Two more people, among them an infant, are suspected of having contracted Campylobacter infections.
Officials with the Alaska Division of Public Health and the Department of Environmental Conservation released a Health Advisory on Friday. It pointed to raw milk as the culprit of the outbreak.
A specific farm at the center of the outbreak has not been named, though officials have urged the public to contact state health officials if they have consumed raw milk in 2013 and subsequently developed a diarrheal illness. They also reiterated possible complications, such as arthritis and Guillain-Barré syndrome, that can develop in people with Campylobacter infections.
The Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released a report earlier this month naming raw milk as sending most people to the hospital. Read, "CDC warns against raw milk...again."

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 20/7/2014 (1128 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: My daughter moved in with me a few years ago, when she was in her early 20s, and then left town after about six months. During her stay I became quite fond of one of her very attractive female friends. That friend also left town to get married. Recently she moved back and asked if she could stay in my daughter's old bedroom. I made the mistake of saying yes and gave her a "family rate" -- basically half price. I also asked her to keep it quiet.
One night over a few drinks she got emotional, talking about her failed marriage, and we ended up sharing my bed. Now we both enjoy a casual relationship, but I think I want out. She's not the person I thought she was. She is very narcissistic, frequently makes nasty comments about people and dates other men who are typically older with a lot of money. They buy her expensive gifts and meals and let her use their high-end vehicles.
The fringe benefits are great, but I can't convince myself I like this young woman who is less than half my age. How do I get rid of the beautiful gold digger gently so it does not get back to my family? -- Sunk, Winnipeg
Dear Sunk: You asked this young woman to "keep it quiet" because you knew your daughter wouldn't believe this to be an innocent setup, and it wasn't. The person to feel sorry for here is your daughter. Was this fatherly behaviour? Hardly. You had the hots for your daughter's friend before she left. Then you let her come back, and secretly stay under your single man's roof for half price, knowing the sexual attraction you felt towards her might lead to something. Luckily, she turned out to be as self-centred as you are.
So, let's focus on your daughter. You'll need to slide this woman out the door while stroking her ego. Humble yourself and tell this young woman you can't keep up with her sexually at your age, and the living situation doesn't work any more. Rather than throwing her out in the street, help her get started in a new place with a deposit and first month's rent. Then stop seeing her altogether, because the only activity you two have in common is sex.
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: I lived in bear country for 30 years by myself. I'm 75 years old. Here are some tips for the lady who lives at the cabin (and is terrified of the bears). 1) Put bear spray, vinegar and moth crystals on trash. 2) Go to the dog groomers, get hair, put in the feet of pantyhose and hang on a few trees. 3) Get a dog, as bears don't like dogs. 4) Take dogs on walks to mark the trails (with urine and feces). It may be that smell will be enough. 5) Get a motion sensor light, so it comes on if a bear comes at night. 6) Wash all cans -- beer, coke and food. 7) Baby diapers should be burned, dirty diapers are a great draw as they are mostly milk. 8) To clean fireplace or stone use moth crystals, but not too much. 9) Don't leave food on a table; put everything in the fridge. -- 30 Years Experience, Ste. Anne
Dear Experience: Thanks for the best tips yet. This may allow the young woman to feel comfortable being back in her cabin again.
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: For the lady with the lopsided breasts who signs herself Tired of Gawkers, there is help. I'm aware you can't advertise but there's a certified prosthetist and a clinical anaplastologist here in Winnipeg who provides high quality external breast prostheses, swim prostheses, custom bras and fashion tips for women with these problems. She can just look up "ultralight breast prosthesis" online. Keep up the great work, Miss L. -- Been There, Winnipeg
Dear Been There: No need to tiptoe around. One store of this type is Bressante at 2536 Main St., which provides beautiful products customized to fit with each woman's underlying shape and size.
Please send your questions or comments c/o email@example.com or mail letters to Miss Lonelyhearts c/o Winnipeg Free Press, 1355 Mountain Ave., Winnipeg, R2X 3B6.

SAINT LEO, Fla. – The Saint Leo men's basketball team used an impressive second half rally from some unfamiliar faces as the Lions rebounded from a nine point halftime deficit to claim the 74-71 victory over Palm Beach Atlantic on Saturday afternoon.
After a sluggish first half where the Lions (14-4) surrendered a 41-32 advantage to the visitors from West Palm Beach and trailed by as much as 11 points during the first 20 minutes, Saint Leo would turn to its bench to buoy them in the second period.
Taylor Bassett, logging his first serious minutes since the Albany St. game, came off the bench with the hot hand. Connecting on two triples in the first half, the junior from Syracuse, NY used a two minute span in the second half to drain three of four attempted treys as he put the Lions back on top. It was a half where the Lions' defense also came up with big stops and only allowed the Sailfish to get one offensive rebound, a board that PBA yanked down in the final minute of play.
Ron Foxx matched his teammate in points, but earned a majority of his the old-fashioned way as he pushed toward the basket and forced PBA to foul him. Foxx finished the night tied with Bassett for the team's scoring lead, but also managed to earn his third double-double of the season with 18 points and 12 rebounds, a board shy of his career mark. A monster on defense, the Gainesville, Fla. native added a season-high four blocks to his game totals.
Spenser Mitchell notched a new career high in rebounds as he pulled down 14 boards to go along with 10 points marking another Lion with a double-double effort in the win.
Bassett would finish with 18 points, tying a career mark he set at Valdosta St. in November of 2011, his freshman year in the Green and Gold.
Not to be overshadowed by his teammates, Chim Kadima contributed 15 points to the victorious effort.
Kadima, Mitchell and Foxx combined to outscore the visitors 31-14 in the paint, while Foxx and Bassett helped Saint Leo outscore PBA 40-19 in bench points.
Palm Beach Atlantic (6-11) was led by a game-high 19 point effort from Evin Graham but the Sailfish could not overcome a 19-8 deficit in second chance points from a stingy Saint Leo defense.
Saint Leo will use the comeback effort as momentum heading back into Sunshine State Conference play. The Lions will welcome Eckerd College into the Bowman Center for another pivotal game on Wednesday night. Saint Leo and Eckerd will tip-off at 7:30 p.m.

CAPE RACE, N.L.— In a remote Marconi wireless station on the southeast tip of Newfoundland, the bland stream of "Wish you were here" messages from passengers aboard RMS Titanic ended with the inconceivable.
#Titanic and #CapeRace – The Story in Tweets3 Apr 2012
The approaching centenary of Titanic's sinking has brought out all kinds of projects and commemorations. While most focus on some aspect of the ship, its crew or passengers – what they ate, what they wore, what they danced to - the role wireless played in helping rescue more than 700 people is the subject of a new social media project from Newfoundland and Labrador Tourism.

Mummers fest just part of rocking Yuletide3 Dec 2011
An oversized bra worn over a plaid shirt with a flowing skirt, a face-shielding lace doily, a floppy hat and an ugly stick. That's a fairly standard costume for the wild and wonderful Yuletide tradition called mummering...
There are few views in Canada more evocative than the one from the dining room at Raymonds. Tall windows survey Newfoundland's prosperity, past and present: from St. John's Harbour, picturesquely gritty with its tugboats and toothless smiles, to colourful houses huddling together against the wind, to the Atlantic beyond, where offshore drilling is fuelling Canada's other oil boom.
Gone down the road21 Oct 2011
Montreal arts and culture magazine Rover turns up at the St John's International Women's Film Festival to explore why Canada's movie industry is so drawn to the vibrant creativity and energy found in Newfoundland and Labrador.
The award-winning dish featured a spoon of parsnip purée, a cod chicharron, a sautéed chiffonade of Brussels sprouts, a tiny ravioli stuffed with peas pudding, and a fried piece of fresh cod napped with a Pernod and sea urchin beurre blanc. This is what's coming out of Newfoundland these days?

The mathematics program at St. Olaf is nationally recognized for innovative and effective teaching, for scholarship, and for service to the profession. We see mathematics as interesting, important, useful, and appropriate for students with a wide variety of interests. Welcome to our mathematical community.
[edit] Do I have to take a math class at St. Olaf?
The short answer is no, but the longer answer is that all B.A. students must satisfy the Abstract and Quantitative Reasoning (AQR) General Education requirement (B.M. students may choose to complete a general education requirement with an AQR course). Students complete the AQR requirement either by taking a designated course in Mathematics, Statistics, or Computer Science or through successful completion of an equivalent course prior to arriving at St. Olaf. Get started on the AQR, Mathematics, and Statistics Placement Survey (that does not require a mathematics test) by clicking here.
[edit] Do I have to complete the AQR requirement at St. Olaf?
Some students have taken the right kind of courses in high school or have had other academic experiences that give them credit for the AQR. Visit our AQR Placement page to see whether or not this includes you.
[edit] How do I satisfy the AQR requirement?
There are several different courses in mathematics, statistics, and computer science that satisfy the AQR requirement. Which kind of course you should take depends on your academic strengths and interests. Click here to get started on the AQR, Mathematics, and Statistics Placement Process and you'll find your way to the information you need.
[edit] I know that I want to take a math, stats, or cs course at St. Olaf, but which one should I take?
Excellent--we're glad you want to take a course in MSCS! In order to gather information and report it to your advisor we need you to go through the AQR, Mathematics, and Statistics Placement Survey. Click here to get started and you'll find your way to the information you need.
New students can get their mathematics and computer science placement results by logging onto SIS. Depending on your interests, goals, and high school preparation, we can recommend the best course(s) in mathematics, statistics and computer science to help you achieve your long- and short-term goals. For more information, ask the chair, Prof. Jill Dietz, ask any MSCS faculty member, or attend an information session during Week One.
Here's some basic information on MSCS courses required or recommended for other majors, more detailed information can be found by clicking here:
- Chemistry: requires Calculus 1 and Calculus 2 (more for the ACS major)
- Economics: requires Calculus 1 and Statistics for Economics (or Stat 272 plus Econ 385)
- Environmental Science: Stats 212 or Stats 272 is one way to fulfill a requirement for the major
- Family Studies: recommends a statistics course
- Physics: requires Calculus 1, Calculus 2, Linear Algebra, Multivariable Calculus, and Intro to Differential Equations
- Psychology: requires a statistics course (usually Stats 110 or Stats 212)
- Sociology/Anthropology: requires Stats 110
- Congratulations to two Ole grads for having their mathematics research papers published, both in the Electronic Journal of Combinatorics and even in the same issue. Cameron Marcott's paper is titled On the Relationship between Pipe Dreams and Permutation Words, and Vladimir Sotirov's paper is Involutions on Standard Young Tableaux and Divisors on Metric Graphs. Find both here.

Energy Assistance Program - Things to Remember
Indiana Home Energy Assistance Program
The Indiana Home Energy Assistance Program, commonly known as State EAP, began on October 1, 2012. This program is funded by the multi-state mortgage settlement through the Attorney General's Office. This program will provide homeowners with utility and crisis assistance toward their primary heating source.
Eligible Clients
This program is for homeowners only. These homeowners are at or below 150% of the federal poverty level. They must be approved at a local agency through the mail-in process or by appointment. Eligible EAP clients will automatically receive assistance through this program. No other application is needed.
Each homeowner will receive $60 toward the primary heating source, as well as assistance with deposits, reconnect fees, or disconnections not covered by the federal program.
How to Apply
Potential applicants may apply for both the State and Federal Energy Assistance Programs. Please contact the Community Action Agency in your area to learn how to apply.
For an Energy Assistance application click here and call.
Click here for an Energy Assistance Application Checklist
Application for winter heating assistance starts:
Agencies will mail applications to households with disabled individuals or individuals age 60 and over starting September 1. Agencies will begin taking appointments on November 1st.
Clients in need of crisis assistance should notify the agency immediately. A crisis is defined having a disconnected utility, received a notice for disconnection, or out of bulk fuel.
Application for summer cooling assistance starts:
If funding is available, agencies will automatically send a payment to all eligible winter clients between the months of June and August. All other clients may walk-in for an appointment on or after July 1st.
Requirements to Receive Energy Assistance
Income- Households may qualify if their income does not exceed 150 percent of the federal poverty guidelines, as an example, $36,450 for a household of four. All household residents age 18 and over must provide proof of earned and unearned income for 12 months.
Utilities- The household must have an active account and have the utilities listed in the name of a household resident age 18 or over, legal power of attorney or landlord. All applicants must provide the most recent utility bill for the primary heating and electric sources.
Proof of Residence- The household must provide a current lease or be willing to acquire a signed landlord affidavit.
Social Security Number Verification- Each household resident age one (1) and over must have proof of a valid social security number, given by the Social Security Administration
Other Utility Assistance
The Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program does not provide assistance for other utilities like water. Residents should contact the following:
United Way: Dial 2-1-1

Indiana Michigan Power (also known as AEP)
Frequently Asked Questions:
Can the utility company shut off my energy?
Any household who has qualified for EAP on or after October 1st cannot have its service disconnected between December 1 and March 15. A "qualified" household is defined as a household that has submitted a complete application to its local CAA or designee, and a staff person at that agency has determined or is determining that eligibility meets the program requirements based on household income, number of household members, and utility bills.
If your utilities are electric or gas, including a municipally owned, privately owned, or cooperatively owned utility, then they qualify as a "utility" for the purposes of the moratorium law. The definition of "municipally owned utility" means every utility owned or operated by any city or town in Indiana.
If your utilities are past due before December 1 or after March 15, your services may be disconnected.
Households serviced by bulk fuel vendors are not eligible for moratorium protection.
If I owe money for my electric bill, can I still apply for Energy Assistance?
As long as your application meets the current program requirements, you may qualify for energy assistance. EAP funds will not pay for a closed account or debt older than one year. If your EAP benefit with crisis assistance does not prevent a disconnection or will not reactivate service, you may be asked to make a payment to ensure that service is active after EAP assistance.
Can you help me pay off my debt to the energy company?
Energy Assistance is not a debt reduction or elimination program.
Do you provide new furnaces or air conditioners in homes?
During the Summer Cooling Assistance Program, agencies will distribute air conditioners to clients who meet the following requirements.
1. The household must be financially eligible for the program as described above; and,
2. The household must have a verified medical requirement for an air conditioner. That is, a statement from a doctor or nurse practitioner that indicates a medical condition of a household member justifies the need for an air conditioner and that the lack of a room air conditioner in the household may seriously jeopardize the health of that person. IHCDA has updated an Air Conditioner Certification Affidavit. It must be completed and signed in order to qualify for this benefit; and
3. Using EAP program definitions, the household must be classified as at-risk: elderly, disabled, or have a child under the age of 6.
Clients may receive a furnace through the weatherization assistance program.
What is weatherization and how do I apply for it?
Clients, whose income does not exceed 150 percent of the federal poverty level, are referred from the Energy Assistance Program to the Weatherization Program. Clients that exceed EAP's income limits must apply directly through Weatherization Assistance.
What if only one of my utilities meets the requirements?
Current program rules require utilities to be listed in the name of a household resident, age 18 or over. If one utility does not meet the program requirements, the client will be ineligible for assistance on that utility until the program rules are met. The client will receive assistance toward the utility that meets the program requirements.
Does your program help pay for utility deposits and reconnect fees?
If funding is available, local agencies may assist with utility deposits and reconnections.
How long does the program run?
Community Action Agencies will begin providing assistance starting November 1st .
The Cooling Assistance Program will operate from approximately June 3rd through the end of August.
Can I get a benefit more than once in a program year?
Energy Assistance is offered as a benefit once in the winter and once in the summer (if funds are available after May 12).
Report problems receiving assistance:
First, you should contact your local service provider and confirm that you have not received energy assistance. Please note that payments may take at least 60 days to process.
If you still are having problems with energy assistance or the application, please contact IHCDA at (800) 872-0371
Appeal a denial of energy assistance from my Community Action Agency:
To appeal an EAP denial, the client should send a written request to the agency's Executive Director. The agency will have ten (10) days to respond to the request.
If the denial was upheld by the Executive Director, then the client must send a written request to the CSBG and EAP Program Manager at IHCDA.

Hello again! We've just added a few new zines to the site as promised.
Love letters to monsters #3/Alabama grrrl #9, Ladybeard (back in stock), Ladybeard #2: Transhairstorical, Bangor
While I'm at it, apologies to anyone who trekked out to Earlwood on the weekend hoping to catch us at the DIY Market. We had to cancel at the last minute due to the aforementioned crisis.
Now on a more positive note Little Boy (see below) has been working hard putting together a list of his favourite zines for 2010. You can check it out here.
Once again a BIG thank you to everyone who wrote us letters or emails throughout the year, we really appreciate the effort you guys have made in getting in contact. And it's been really great meeting folks through correspondance or zine fairs. Hopefully we'll see some of you again in 2011. And lastly thank you to everyone whose zines we stock. We love you. See you in the new year!
