Security a Priority for Communities
This year marks the 12th anniversary since the Sept. 11 terrorists attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon.
Although no local threat has been made, there has been heightened international "chatter" among terror groups, and in August, an Al-Queda threat closed United States embassies in the Middle East. Still, local communities are continuing to train to keep up with anything that may arise.
Ken Truver, chief of police in the Borough of Castle Shannon said his department constantly reminds residents that if they see something to say something.
"This is a common mantra we use to echo Homeland Security's message, but we use it for everyday crime prevention efforts," Truver said.
Truver added that at the local level, "we are more concerned about keeping our residents safe from the criminal element. We ask our residents to call police immediately if they see suspicious people, vehicles or activity."
At least one local community has gone as far as having a police officer present at all board of commissioners meetings.
"It was my call," explained Ryan Eggleston, manager of South Fayette Township. He said having an officer regularly attend meetings is a "smart precaution" in light of what happened in August at a municipal meeting in Ross Township near Philadelphia. In that incident, a gunman opened fire and killed three people. The assailant, who's property was run down, had code enforcement issues with the township.
Eggleston said given that incident, an officer will be present at township meetings until further notice.
Truver attends most council meetings in Castle Shannon as a resource officer. Mt. Lebanon's police chief, Coleman McDonough also attends council meetings in that municipality.
In Mt. Lebanon, Lt. Aaron Lauth said the department provides security at activities like sporting events at the school district. "We normally provide security at events where there are lots of people," he said.
Local communities are also always looking to maintain the most up-to-date training.
"We strive to provide our personnel with the latest technology, equipment and training to keep them and our constituents safe," Truver said.
In Mt. Lebanon, "Our officers regularly go through training," Lauth said. He added that the type of training the officers do has a lot to do with trends in what is happening throughout the country and the world.
"Our department is big on training. We want to have the best tools available," Lauth said.
School-based incidents involving active shooters has been the focus of recent training. Mt. Lebanon and other departments in the South Hills area have been participated in Advanced Law Enforcement Rapid Response Training or ALERRT.
"Things are always evolving as far as training goes," Lauth said, adding the department is "trying to stay ahead of the curve."
The Mt. Lebanon police are also trying to encourage residents to share important information with the department. Lauth said a lot of times people may feel like something is not important enough to call 911, but it still is important enough to be reported.
According to Lauth, there is a contact form for non-emergencies on the department's website. At www.pd.mtlebanon.org, citizens can relay information to police. Officers receive that information almost instantaneously. If anyone does have an emergency, Lauth stressed, 911 should still be called.
Eventually, Mt. Lebanon will offer a way for residents to text information via their phones or a smart-phone application to the department.
Thanks to the software program, Tip411, residents will be able to anonymously text information to the police department. Lauth said the data goes through a third-party that erases any phone numbers associated with the text message.
"It's a completely anonymous way to share information," Lauth said. To his knowledge, Mt. Lebanon will be the only local department with this new software.

SF continues hearing on proposed mining
After more than four hours of testimony, cross-examination and public comment regarding mining at the former Mayview State Hospital, the South Fayette Township Zoning Hearing Board voted to continue the Sept. 25 meeting until Oct. 2.
Aloe Brothers, LLC, owners of the property on Mayview Road, have requested a special exception to allow mining at the site of the former state hospital and are also challenging the validity of a section of the township's zoning ordinance for B-1 (business) districts.
Aloe Brothers wants the ability to mine coal on about 37 acres of the property and plans on building a business park at the site in the future. Based upon sampling conducted at the site, it is estimated that there is about 330,000 tons of coal that could be mined on the property. The coal is part of the Pittsburgh Coal Seam.
On Feb. 27, the three-member zoning hearing board denied Aloe Brothers' special request for mining.
At the Sept. 25 meeting, Aloe Brothers' attorney, William Sittig argued coal mining is a "comparable use" to oil and gas exploration, which is permitted in the B-1 district. Sittig called South Fayette's ordinance "irrational and discriminatory" and said the B-1 district is the only district in the township that does not permit incidental mineral removal.
Sittig called four witnesses to testify at the hearing and the witnesses were then cross-examined by South Fayette Township attorneys Jonathan Kamin and Jonathan Arminas. The witnesses called by Sittig included landscape architect Steven Victor, Andrew Swestyn, who works in the Marcellus shale gas industry, Sean Isgan, an engineer with coal mining experience and traffic engineer Michael Andrewsh.
Isgan said if approved, coal mining operations would take place daily with workers working two, 10-hour shifts either from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m. or 4 p.m. to 2 a.m. The site would be lit at night, with the lights directed at the coal pit. He said blasting would occur on the site twice a week to "fracture the overburden" or the rock and soil over the coal.
Mining operations would take nearly three years and coal would be hauled from the site either by truck or by train. Isgan pointed out that it could take about 18 months to complete the mining application process.
If the coal were to be hauled out at 22 tons per truck, it would take about 15,000 loads over the three-year period to remove all of the coal. During the township's cross-examination, Kamin asked Victor if the Mayview area could be developed without extracting the coal. Victor replied that it could.
"The applicant can build an office park there. There are a variety of uses in the B-1 zoning district," Victor said.
Adam Rossi of Scott Township, who owns a business in South Fayette near the proposed mining site asked, "How much money are we talking about that's in the ground?" He said that if prospective buyers knew "you could mine out millions of dollars in coal, there would have been more offers," on the site. Aloe Brothers paid $505,000 for the property about two years ago.
Sittig replied that an expert in commodities would have to give the value of the coal and that it would depend on the market.
South Fayette resident Ed McClure, who lives along Boyce Road said, "If this is approved, it should be stated that it be shipped on the railroads and not ruin the roads." He added, "We've got a lot of homes on Boyce Road and none of them want to see 50 trucks a day."
Annette Shimer of Upper St. Clair's Citizens for Land Stewardship said, "CLS urges no variance, no special exception and vote no on mineral removal."
Kamin will present the township's case on the application at the continued hearing at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 2 at the township building.

2012 a record year for Howard Hanna
2012 a record year for Howard Hanna
Howard Hanna Real Estate Services had record sales in 2012. One of the four largest real estate companies in the country, Howard Hanna closed 41,348 transactions in 2012 – more than 7,062 than in 2011. And, closed sales volume hit $7 billion for the first time ever – $7,085,343,298, a 20% increase from the previous year.
"2012 was just a remarkable year at Howard Hanna. We had a huge, huge increase over last year, thanks to the tremendous efforts of so many people in the company," said President Helen Hanna Casey. "We outperformed a rising tide market in all segments of our company. The pent-up demand of the 'move-up buyer' fueled a large part of our business and will continue to be strong this year as homebuyer confidence continues to rise. The resurgence of bidding battles and full-price offers created a sense of urgency in many price categories, while the average price of a home sold in our region increased by six percent."
In Pittsburgh and Southwestern Pennsylvania, Howard Hanna's record breaking year included $2.3 billion in closed sales volume and 11,587 closed sales transactions. Howard Hanna outperformed the market with a 23 percent increase in volume and an 18 percent increase in units as year-end figures from the West Penn Multi-List reported closed sales volume up 17 percent and units up 11 percent.

A non-hunter might think it strange that much of a deer hunter's time is spent waiting and watching. In this hustle and bustle world, this quiet, passive time is both a chance to stop and return to the past and to reflect on long-gone hunts and those who have entered and left our lives.
We might do little more than think of past hunts, big bucks we have downed, or the big failures when a trophy escaped, wagging its tail like a white flag as it departed.
As we lean on an oak tree, we might regret changing jobs, or, for that matter, wives. Of course, the reverse can also be true.
Sometimes, we think of parents that are long gone or still with us to encourage our endeavors or offer support when it is needed. There is much more to a deer stand than the big buck we long for.
Don't get me wrong, the desire to take a massive-antlered buck is important, but so are the comraderie and other aspects of the hunt. It might be the boy asking, "Hey dad, if I see a porcupine, can I shoot it?" Or it might be a doe that sneaked up from behind, snorted and scared the heck out of you, causing you to jump out of your orange pants.
The mind might wander as you sit and wait.
There was a great shot made a couple of years ago, but there was also the nightmare of an easy miss as well. We don't talk about the misses as much, but the only hunters who don't miss are the ones who don't shoot that much.
I remember a fellow telling me that every deer he shot dropped in its tracks. I looked at him and replied, "You haven't shot many deer, have your?"
It's like shooting a one-hole group from the bench rest. It's easy if you only fire one shot.
Like many others, I can enter my game room full of mounted heads that bring back memories. But as I age, I realize the greatest trophies aren't in that room. They are in my memories.
Two of my grandsons hunted, and I was there when both bagged their first deer.
Both were anterless but were trophies in their own right.
Those 12-year-old boys insisted on dragging their own deer from the woods while grandpa carried the rifles. To both, the deer were a light load.
There was an archery hunt long ago when snow was the ground cover instead of leaves. My wife, Eileen, was on a stand not far from me, and as the light faded, I went to where she was sitting.
I asked her the normal question, "Did you see anything?"
She told me she had a doe standing just 10 feet from her stand eating apples. When I asked her why she didn't shoot it, she told me the poor thing was eating those frozen apples and looked cold. How could she shoot her?
During all of the years we hunted together and all of the bucks she downed with her .270, I can only remember her taking one doe. It was for a needy family and she couldn't resist taking a 400-yard shot another hunter told her was too far.
The mind is a funny thing, and now and then, it allows us to peek into our most important memories.
I, like others, spend time just thinking while I wait for that once-in-a-lifetime buck.
This is the first of my deer seasons without Eileen. Last year, she was in a hospital, but I could go see her.
In her better days, she would still ask me if I had seen anything.
Now I still lean on the oak and watch, and over the years, I have learned much about my friends, the animal and myself. Some of what I learn is good, some is not so good.
Deer hunting has caused a rise in my self worth and done an equally fine job of bringing me back down to earth. Yet there is something missing.
Maybe it is that question when I return home: "Did you see anything?"

While there has not been a break in detours and road closures this winter as crews from Pennsylvania-American Water Co. replaced a water line on College Street over the last few months, drivers should expect even more later this year when reconstruction work starts on the street.
Crews from Donegal Construction will start work in April, and perhaps as early as March, to rebuild the street between Highland Avenue and East Maiden Street. The work was to have been completed last year while work was done on Lincoln Street, but the water company work pushed the project back a year. Work on the street should be finished by October. The work is part of the Route 19 corridor improvement project through downtown Washington.
"Most of the water company work is done, although they are still working on some service lines," said Scott Faieta, assistant construction engineer for the state Department of Transportation's District 12. "The work should be done by the end of the month."
Crews from Donegal will be cutting down some trees in anticipation of the work. The trees will be replaced at the completion of the project with species agreed upon by the contractor and Washington & Jefferson College representatives.
Some finishing work still has to be completed on Lincoln, Faieta said.
"We still have a few traffic signals that have to be done, and Verizon and Windstream still has some work to do. The road rides well," he said of Lincoln. "It has really put a new face on the area."
As work is winding down on this phase of the project, Frank Zottola Construction of Valencia will start work on the next phase of the Route 19 project, which includes the intersections with Highland Avenue and repaving Ridge and Murtland avenues to the state police barracks.
"If the contractor gets the permits, they will start to tear down four buildings," Faieta said.
The buildings include the former Highland Bar and Grill and a former gasoline station at Locust and Highland avenues as well as two houses. Demolition could start in July.
Some road construction in the $2.8 million project to reconfigure the intersection could start later this year, but Faieta said the majority will be done in 2014.

Peters Twp. hosts school board candidates forum
Seven candidates vying for four seats on the Peters Township School Board in the May 21 primary participated in a candidate's forum April 23 in the auditorium of the Peters Township Middle School.
The candidates answered, on a rotating basis, 12 questions ranging from the recent uproar about the district's growth and human development program, to the amount of money spent on upgrading and expanding athletic fields above Pleasant Valley Elementary School, to what the candidates expect will be the biggest issue in the next five years.
Participating were incumbents Lori Cuervo, Sue Smith, David Hvizdos and Cynthia Golembiewski. Jamison Hardy, Rebecca Bowman and Lisa Anderson are also in the race.
As an answer to the biggest issue in the next five years question, three of the incumbents, Cuervo, Hvizdos and Golembiewski answered funding or the budget.
"Everything we want and need to do begins with money," said Golembiewski.
Bowman commented that meeting the needs of all students was most important. Three percent of the district students receive a reduced or free lunch, she said, noting that not all Peters Township residents with children in school are living on an above average income.
For Smith, an incumbent, finding the right superintendent is essential. Former superintendent Nina Zetty left the district in December for a similar position in the Gateway Area School District. Joseph Dimperio is serving as acting superintendent until a replacement is found. The board has conducted five interviews with potential superintendent candidates and expects to have a new superintendent in place by the beginning of the school year.
Anderson said the budget was important but felt the turnover in the administration and central office needed to be stabilized. Hardy said he questioned fiscal responsibility from the board.
"You don't spend more money than you take in," Hardy said.
On the issue of fiscal responsibility, Smith answered that 72 percent of the annual budget is spent on salaries and benefits that "are controlled by contracts."
Hvizdos replied that two years ago the district was financially strapped when state and federal funding was slashed. Even with less money coming in, Hvizdos said not one teacher was eliminated. Anderson said financial responsibility means spending money in a "smart" way.
"I've never been afraid to spend money on important matters," Anderson said.
For Bowman, the district may, at times, see less funding, and that's when the district should tap parental involvement.
A $2.5 million upgrade and improvement project was completed at the athletic fields above Pleasant Valley Elementary School in the past year or so, at a time when money was tight. The project was financed by a bond issue. One question dealt with whether the expenditure was necessary.
Safety was one of the answers, repeated by Hvizdos, Golembiewski and Cuervo. Smith pointed out she voted against the project, adding she was not in favor of "gold-plated" fields. In response to the question, Bowman said she feels an extra curricular activity should be self-supporting and "parents should raise the money if they want the fancy schmancy stuff."
Hardy said he was torn and was concerned about the residential disruption.
Anderson said that athletics are extremely important, but smart spending is equally important. She, like Hardy, is concerned about disruptions to the neighbors.
On April 15, several parents attended the school board meeting to express concerns about the growth and human development program for the fifth-and sixth-graders. Parents who spoke told the board they preferred to teach their children about body changes and sexuality with some saying they relied on "bible-based faith."
Golembiewski said the issue was being dealt with, and she did not feel it appropriate to discuss in a public forum.
Anderson classifies herself as being more liberal as to what students can hear.
Hardy, a Lutheran pastor, has three children and worries about students hearing false information outside the classroom. If, he said, a parent wishes to protect their children, there is the ability to opt out.
The students who have permission to attend, are instructed in two, 40-minute sessions each year in the fifth grade, and in three, 40-minute classes in sixth grade. Cuervo said of the nearly 350 eligible students at the middle school, less than 10 have opted out. She said parents can attend the discussions about the program this summer.
As for Bowman, an abstinence program is something she would like to see in the district. And she would like to see more training for teachers, coaches and other school employees to answer questions if posed by a student.
Smith said a majority of students are not being opted out by their parents. "The program should represent the community at large," Smith said.
Hvizdos said the board has always sought parental input when it came to possible changes. And, he added, a parent can always opt out their child.
"The program is necessary and it does have value," Hvizdos said.

Other speakers will include Cindy Cowie, administrator of Southwest Regional Medical Center, who will address the upcoming Health Care Reform Act and how it will affect business.
The subject of Trombetta's talk will be "The American Free Enterprise System - Do Our Kids 'Get It' – Does Anyone?!"
This scholarship, the 23rd for the chamber, is presented each year to a Greene County senior who plans to attend a college, university or trade school.
The scholarship is awarded based on grade-point average and a 500-word essay.
This year, 32 applications for the scholarship were received by the chamber.
The committee had a difficult task of selecting one winner from the qualified field.

When are the powers-to-be in the Steelers organization going to learn that:
• When you hire a head coach with absolutely no qualifications, you get a totally unqualified head coach.
•When you retain a defensive coordinator who is resting on his laurels, you get a defense that allows your opponents to create theirs.
• The only thing that the prevent defense prevents is winning.
• When the symptoms of your team are dropped passes, fumbles and excessive penalties, the diagnosis is poor coaching.
Mike Tomlin and Dick LeBeau have to go if the Steelers are going to have any chance of returning to glory.

The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, Regional Office for South Asia, (UNODC ROSA) and the UN Women, South Asia signed a Memorandum of Understanding, whereby they committed to strengthen the existing cooperation in dealing with the organized crime of human trafficking in the South Asian countries of Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Nepal, Maledives and Sri Lanka. The Protocol seeks to prevent trafficking in persons, protect victims of trafficking and promote cooperating among State Parties in order to meet these objectives. Within South Asia, the legal regime is diverse, and the SAARC Convention on Preventing and Combating Trafficking in Women and Children for Prostitution, 2002, represents a need and political commitment from countries in the SAARC region.
Bangladesh, India, Nepal and Sri Lanka have all taken steps in the right direction to combat human trafficking; however, there is a need to look closely at country specific laws to understand where the gaps lie. It is in the light of this, that a Legal and Policy Review of Responses to Human Trafficking has been taken up. This Report looks at the law and policy, especially in the context of the Protocol, supplementing work already available in different studies

Did the work well.
Car was in for clutch replacement which was done by staff who are no longer working at garage. The standard of work was deemed unsafe by another garage. (Loose bolts, cross threaded bolts, bolts missing on gearbox bell housing, cv joint damaged, engine mounts not fitted back correctly were all found by other garage) To their credit the new management of garage did do the work without charge but in the days following I found bolts left on top of the gearbox bell housing. Understand it's a stressful time when a business changes ownership, just can't help feel let down by garage.

Responded very quickly to my quote request. Good service. Good price
More than happy, very helpful
The price was very good for a dealership. I thought to myself when they get my car in thet will tell me it needs loads of work doing it, this is exactly what happened. I ended up having a new battery and having some pipe replaced that had split in the engine. I was quoted £103.00 for the original job and i ended up paying £228.00.
Very pleased with the overall experience, excellent customer service and very well priced for a quality garage.
good and cheap service. Got MOT done for £27.5. I gave 4 star as I had to wait 2 and half hours.
Very helpful and great service. Would definitely use again

Did my MOT for a great price, including car pick-up and drop-off. Brilliant service! Will definitely use again.
They advertise some services that are actually not true (1 star for that). Second point, was not possible to book the car in... Why sending quotes if the garage is too busy?
Toms Motors did a great and speedy job replacing my clutch and I would highly recommend this garage to everyone. Tom was very helpful and went the extra mile to ensure a top job was done and at a great price. He even picked up my car from my house and offered me a free of charge courtesy car. Great service start to finish.
Did not diagnose the problem. Paid 72GBP just for checking error codes and erasing and topping up oil.
Excellent service provided. Good communication throughout would definitely use again

PITTSBURGH – With quarterback Ben Roethlisberger returning to the lineup, and playing a 4-8 football team that was down three starting offensive linemen, the Steelers were supposed to dominate the San Diego Chargers.
Somebody forgot to let the Chargers in on that little secret.
The Chargers stifled Roethlisberger and company for most of three quarters and controlled the clock against the league's top-ranked defense, handing the Steelers a 34-24 defeat Sunday at Heinz Field.
The victory, the first for the Chargers in a regular-season game in Pittsburgh in 15 tries, improves San Diego to 5-8.
Making things even more painful for the Steelers (7-6), AFC North rivals Cincinnati (7-6) and Baltimore (9-4) also lost.
Though the Steelers still control their own playoff destiny, they could have taken a big step toward securing a postseason spot by beating the Chargers.
"It was a humbling performance for myself and the offense," said Steelers receiver Antonio Brown.
The offense wasn't alone in taking the blame.
"It was a good, old-fashioned, take-them-out-back butt-whooping from the defensive side," said linebacker Larry Foote.
The Steelers managed just two first downs on their first seven possessions before finally putting together a field-goal drive at the end of the first half to cut the Chargers' lead to 13-3.
The offense can't shoulder all of the blame as the defense allowed the Chargers to open the second half with a 17-play, 78-yard touchdown drive that took nearly 10 minutes.
"That was ugly," said Foote. "That was uncharted waters, especially here. We just kept trying to fight. But you saw it, third downs. We've been getting strong the last month, but we gave it up today."
San Diego picked on second-year cornerback Curtis Brown – who was playing on passing downs because of an injury to starter Ike Taylor – to the point that head coach Mike Tomlin pulled him from the game in the third quarter, inserting Josh Victorian, a player who was activated off the practice squad Saturday.
"They were attacking Curtis some, particularly on third downs," said Tomlin. "He wasn't being successful enough. We gave Josh an opportunity."
The Chargers converted 12-of-22 third downs, including all five attempts during their third-quarter drive, which culminated with Philip Rivers tossing a 3-yard touchdown pass to Malcom Floyd to put the Chargers ahead 20-3.
Rivers completed 21 of 42 passes for 200 yards and three touchdowns, becoming the first player to pass for 200 yards against the Steelers in eight games.
"This isn't necessarily the team we thought we'd have on the field in December, but this is the type of performance we thought we'd put together," Rivers said.
Roethlisberger, who was returning after missing three games with shoulder and rib injuries, was rusty early, looking tentative until tossing an 18-yard completion over the middle to Plaxico Burress late in the first quarter.
The Pittsburgh receivers also struggled, as Mike Wallace and Brown each dropped deep passes at midfield that would have given the Steelers a boost.
"I didn't get it to the receivers or right guy. I didn't give them a good ball to run and catch with," said Roethlisberger, who was 22 for 42 for 285 yards, three touchdowns and one interception. "I'll take the first half on me."
On the first play after Rivers' TD pass to Floyd, Roethlisberger attempted a screen pass to Brown, but rookie tight end David Paulsen was driven backwards at the snap and the ball hit him in the back and caromed into the end zone.
Brown could have fallen on the ball or kicked it out of the end zone, but instead San Diego's Quentin Jammer fell on it for a touchdown and a 27-3 lead.
"I thought I heard the whistle blow," said Brown. "But I learned a lesson. We would rather give up two than seven in that situation."
Roethlisberger responded with a 40-yard touchdown pass to Wallace but threw an interception to linebacker Bront Bird while escaping pressure on Pittsburgh's next possession. Rivers then tossed his second touchdown pass of the game to Danario Alexander to make it 34-10.
Two late Roethlisberger touchdowns – a second to Wallace and one to Brown - made the game appear closer than it actually was.
"An unfortunate, poor performance by us, and by that, I mean all of us," said Tomlin. "We coached poorly, we played poorly. It's a shame, given the opportunity that was in front of us."
Odds and end zones
Guard Willie Colon, who missed the past two games, returned but left in the first half after aggravating a knee injury. ... Rookie Drew Butler had a 79-yard punt in the second half that was the second-longest in team history, behind an 82-yard kick by Joe Geri in 1949. ... San Diego held a 36:45-23:14 edge in time of possession. ... Lawrence Timmons led the Steelers with 11 tackles. Defensive end Ziggy Hood had eight tackles and the team's lone sack.

A while back I came across a box in the basement labeled "my stuff." I pretty much knew what kind of stuff was in there – old photos, high school football letters that were never sewn to a jacket, beer mugs, shot glasses and old motel keys.
Yep, quite a life's legacy to hang on to after all these years. But bundled together with rubber bands were my old report cards from grade school and high school. Why I kept these, I really don't know, but curiosity took over so I opened them, beginning with fourth grade.
Wow! An A in reading, but also some S's next to some other subjects but no U's. I guess my school didn't begin using the traditional A through F grading standard, minus the E of course, until seventh grade.
Frankly, what I learned in ninth-grade algebra didn't matter a whole lot now, but what did were areas reserved for tardy and absent. A cursory check of the cards that I still had, either seven or eight of them covering both elementary and high school, showed I was never tardy. That's a strange word – tardy. Say it a couple of times and you can't help laugh.
But I also discovered I was seldom, if ever, marked absent. Maybe twice over the course of seventh through 12th grade.
I raise this rather mundane nostalgic rediscovery for one reason. A headline in this newspaper last week noted that the flu season has peaked. And I rejoiced because I did not get the flu and therefore was never absent from work.
But I can't help wonder if this flu season was hyped somewhat. News stations, with their "contracted" medical experts, implored all of us to get flu shots, wash our hands constantly and don't, for any reason, sneeze or cough in someone else's face..
Yet, our news story goes on to say there were 622 flu cases of reported in Washington County so far this year, and 168 cases in Greene County. Considering the populations of both counties, this is a small percentage. Granted, many who contracted the virus may not have sought medical treatment, so the figures might be skewed somewhat.
Over the last several years I have followed this sage medical advice and have gotten the flu shot and I have not come down with the flu. Another medicinal protocol I have faithfully followed during the flu season is to drink plenty of liquids, mostly imported from Tennessee. Thank you, Jack.
I wasn't able though to escape an attack of a horrible flu bug in the 1960s called the Hong Kong flu. It was nasty and I got hit hard.
Seriously, the flu can be deadly for the very young and the elderly and it is no laughing matter for that sector of the population.
Our Greene County office has taken the required precautions. We have more dispensers of Purell hand sanitizer sitting about than most medical facilities. I feel confident that pumping the ethyl alcohol foam onto our hands has saved us from this potential plague.
I can hope there is no rebound and the next headline doesn't read, "Flu makes unexpected return."
I just heard someone in our ad department have a coughing fit, and I just received word one of my colleague has called off sick.
Whoops! I just sneezed. Where is that Purell?

Mom passed almost 4 years ago from Alzheimer's. It was heart breaking to watch the best parts of her personality fade away. Mom's kind, loving, trusting traits disappeared and changed into hateful outbursts, paranoid thoughts and fear filled behavior. At first we had no idea what was happening to her. We were unable to keep her safe as she wandered at night, made up lies to cover the confusion in her mind, and her multiple falls leading to broken bones. As the Alzheimer's progressed, she required expensive 24-hour care. The disease divided our family as we watched mom's suffering.
We built a very nice garage apartment for my widowed mother 8 years ago. She was 86 years old, still driving and had just given up her volunteer job in a local hospital gift shop. She was an avid reader and walked at least 1 mile a day. She was extremely active for an 86 year old. A couple of years ago when she was approximately 92 years old we began to see dramatic changes in her emotional and mental health. At 92 years of age she was in great physical condition.
A bit about my mom. She was diagnosed with Alzheimer's in 2009. We could see changes in her as early as 2006, but I guess we all just thought nothing was wrong and Alzheimer's never enter our minds till about 2008 when things really started to get out of hand with her. She started calling me telling me the same story day after day, sometimes 3 of 4 times in one day. Then she started saying someone was taking things out of her house. I kept telling her no one was taking anything out. I had told my step dad to go to the Doctors with her and talk to them about what was going on.

BP fact-finder report to be released Oct. 2
A fact-finder's report and recommendations on the contract negotiations between the Bethel Park School District and its teachers union is expected to be released to both parties Oct. 2.
At a school board meeting earlier this week, president Donna Cook said the two sides had met twice with the fact-finder from the Pennsylvania Labor Relations Board. Both sides were expected to present their proposals to the fact-finder Sept. 25.
After the fact-finder's report is given to the district and the union, the two sides will have 10 days to accept or reject the report. If one or both reject the report, it will then be posted on the PLRB website. Again, the two sides will have 10 days to reconsider their decision to accept or reject.
However, if both sides accept the report, "then we have a contract," Cook said.
On Aug. 21, the district filed a request for appointment of fact-finding with the PLRB to assist with contract negotiations with the Bethel Park Federation of Teachers. Teachers and other members of the union have been working under the terms of the previous contract that expired June 30, 2010.
Fact-finding is non-binding and the two sides are continuing to meet and negotiate during the process.
State law mandates that teachers remain on the job during the fact-finding process.
In 2010, the union staged a strike that lasted from Oct. 25 until Dec. 5, 2010, when members of the union, including teachers, psychologists, guidance counselors and nurses, returned before state Act 88 kicked in.
After the work stoppage, the district and the union participated in non-binding arbitration with both sides eventually rejecting the arbitration panel's decision in July of 2011.
In March 2012, the union filed for fact-finding. Both the union and the district rejected the report and recommendations from that round of fact-finding.
Both sides have said that the main issues dividing them continue to be salaries and benefits.
State mandates
In other matters, the board took several actions to facilitate the institution of Common Core and other state mandates.
Board members approved a stipend of $500 each to Janet O'Rourke, director of secondary education, and Dorothy Stark, director of elementary education, for their preparation and implementation of new state mandates for the teacher evaluation system, Common Core, the teacher information management system, the pupil information management system and the district's comprehensive plan.
In addition, the board approved an expenditure of $4,300 for O'Rourke to participate in the Common Core Black Belt Leader II Performance and Assessment Training for a year.
The Common Core State Standards Initiative is a U.S. education proposal that seeks to bring diverse state curricula into alignment with each other by following the principles of standards-based education reform.

West Virginia state police have obtained a warrant to arrest a man on a kidnapping charge over accusations he abandoned an abducted child unharmed Friday in Washington County, only to lead police on a wild pursuit in a stolen van into Allegheny County.
Timothy Adam White, 23, of Reedsville, W.Va., also faces a charge of grand larceny auto theft over accusations he stole a car outside his residence and used it to transport 2-year-old Starr Parks across the state line into Pennsylvania, said Sgt. C.W. DeBerry of West Virginia State Police in Morgantown.
"We're still trying to determine the motive," said DeBerry on Monday after he met with prosecutors in Allegheny County about how to proceed with the case, since White faces related charges in Pittsburgh and Washington County.
Authorities may decide, he said, to quickly return White to West Virginia, where he is facing the most serious charges in the bizarre case.
White, who came to West Virginia from Alabama and has no job, had been living with the girl's parents above a convenience store for about two weeks before he decided to take the child from the home, DeBerry said.

I like the custom....but I don't care if a figure gets made.
I'll say it again though...
GREAT job on the custom friend!
I don't know if ToyGuru ever mentioned if he is possible to be made, but I have always wanted a figure of the Windraider Pilot from the classic 80's poster. I made a quick mockup figure for him, and a bio to give the character some life. So post here to show your support for him.
This "Unknown Pilot" made his first appearance during the Great Unrest. During the battle, Tri-Klops was ready to attack Man-at-arms from behind, but Sky-High came swooping in on his Air Stryker vehicle and took out Tri-Klops with a blaster shot to save the day. To show his gratitude for saving his life, Duncan upgraded the heroic pilots Air Stryker vehicle with new weapons and it is now known as The Wind Raider. Duncan also gave the unknown pilot the nickname Sky-High, for his ability to manuever through the skies at incredible speeds and heights with ease. He now serves the Eternian Royal guard as the greatest pilot in Eternias history, and waits to aid the Masters of the Universe at any time he is needed.

I'd buy 'em if he came with the Windraider....
I can think of over 100 other figures I would want before this guy.
It's not that I hate this character but if I had the choice between this pilot and say someone important like Ram Man...I'll take Ram Man.
No need to waste a figure slot on a character like this.
I'd buy him in a heartbeat. I love the stuff that I never knew existed before!
Just as I'd be interested to buy the un-named pilots/drivers from the Monogram Roton, Attak Trak and Talon Fighter, I'd also be happy to have this guy produced.
In fact, I don't think I'd ever heard of him before!

Great potential for 2-packs here. One of pilots - Wind Raider and Talon Fighter. The other for drivers - Attak Trak and Roton. I'd buy 'em!!
Mattel... Please bring back 200x styled stactions!!
THis is the kind of character they should have for the club exclusive...
Maybe sometime waaaaay down the line!

While I do like obscure characters this one does not look very appealing to me. Worse his colors work very bad with colors of the windraider imho. He looks more like a horde characters. Nice custom though.

I doubt they will package them with vehicles though, but it's a fun idea!

Count me in; this mystery dude is perfect for MOTUC!!!

I'd like it if he came with the Wind Raider.
I like the name too... I have a feeling that whatever name Mattel comes up with, if any, it won't be as good or take the place of "Sky-High."
Although, it would be cool if he had more of a suit of armor, and it ended up being Marlena... kind of an homage to "The Rainbow Warrior."
A Want List: Starburst She-Ra, Ghost, Mini Comic Tri-Klops, Mini-Comic/Vintage Toy costume Catra, Kayo, Joya, Storm, Twiggets, Melaktha, Sagitar, Spirit, Kothos, Master Sebrian, The Enchantress, Weapons Paks, Fuerza T figures, 200X Sorceress, King Miro, Dree-Elle & Uncle Montork.
Filmation Variants: She-Ra, Bow, Mantenna, Leech, Entrapta, Grizzlor, Prince Adam, Glimmer, Adora
I'd like him if he was an exclusive or a bonus figure.
That being said...he looks too much like Cobra Commander.
No thanks- we have soooo many existing characters to trawl through. I don't need background cameo characters taking up a slot.
Most-wanted MOTUC: Granita - Hunga the Harpy - The Melog - Dylamug - Sprag, Sprocker and Spritina - the Twiggets - King Ahgo - Filmation Grizzlor, Mantenna, Leech, Modulok and Multi-Bot
Yes, I'd like this one and those other unnamed drivers/pilots.
No connection to the Unnamed One, I'm sure, but they're still not named as far as I know.
ne jabba no badda!

Undefeated Bethel Park netters head into big week of action
For the past three years, Bethel Park has not kept individual statistics on its volleyball players. Head coach Tom Allman believes this is the reason why the Black Hawks have been successful.
This spring is proving no different. The Hawks are 9-0 overall. They reached the semifinals in the Deer Lakes and Fox Chapel tournaments. In addition, Bethel is undefeated in Section 1 action against the likes of Baldwin, Canon-McMillan, Central Catholic, Moon, Peters Township and Upper St. Clair.
The Hawks host the Indians April 25 and visit the Panthers April 30 in key clashes this week. PT won the Fox Chapel tournament.
"To be able to continue on our winning ways and achieve our team goals," Allman emphasized, "We must be disciplined, continue to pass the ball well enough to run our offense and to commit to our team defense."
These objectives, Allman says, will put the Hawks in a position to make a run at the section title as well as give them a shot at a Final Four appearance in the WPIAL Class AAA championships. The tournament commences May 14 and concludes with the finals May 24 at La Roche College.
Allman has used a blend of nine players to fashion a winner.
Freshman Jake Dixon joins seniors Cam Hay and Aaron Glasser at the outside hitter position. Dixon towers over at 6-feet-3 while Hay is 6-2 and Glasser an even 6-foot.
Bobby Huntington, a 6-4 senior, and Brandon Hanson, a 6-3 junior, anchors the middle while Grant Underwood dominates the opposite side hitter. The 6-4 senior was All-WPIAL last season.
While senior Vance Blanc handles the setting, Danny Burke, a 6-0 junior, and Luke Hudson, a 5-8 senior, are the Hawks' defensive specialists. Allman has been pleased with their "extraordinary" play.
Alexander Kiselica and Ryan Petrossi are defensive specialists as well. The seniors also lend leadership to the club.
Juniors Lenny Chorney, Werner Hernandez and Nicholas Pilotta strengthen the hitter positions on the squad.
The team sports four sophomores, giving BP added depth at a variety of positions. The 10th graders are: Noah Blanc, a setter and liberio; David Uhlmann, a liberio; and hitters, Steven Eiben and Nathan Harrold.
Brandon Thorsen, like Dixon, is a newcomer to the varsity. The freshman setter completes the roster.

Styling Steps
1 . Apply Straightening Balm
Squeeze a small amount of straightening balm into your palms and then rub your hands together before smoothing the product evenly through damp hair.
2 . Part the Middle
Using the corner of your comb and standing in front of a mirror find the middle of your nose and then drag the comb straight up slowly until you reach your hairline and then continue back in a straight manner to achieve an even middle part. A middle part is a great way to make small, round face shapes appear longer and thinner.
3 . Use a Large Radial Brush
A large radial brush is usually used on long straight hair types or to smooth out wavy or curly hair textures. When selecting a radial brush, always use one with a pure bristle as this will not tear or damage the hair.
4 . Blow-dry the Back Under
To blow-dry under, start at the nape/back and place your brush under the section of hair close to the nape. With the dryer held up over the hair, pull the brush from the roots and continue to the mid length's, keeping the blow-dryer following over the top. Once you reach the ends, curve them under. Repeat this step until the section is completely dry.
5 . Blow-dry the Sides Under
To blow-dry the sides, take out a small section of hair from the front and clip the rest of the hair away. Next, place the brush under the section and then pull the brush and hair forward around your face (this curving motion creates body). Place the hair-dryer on top of the brush until you reach the ends and then turn the ends under. Repeat until dry.
6 . Blow-dry the Top Under to the Right
Take a section of your hair no wider than the diameter of your brush. Place your brush under and at the roots of your section. Then with your blow-dryer above, drag the brush up through the mid-lengths and ends of the hair following with your blow-dryer and pulling the hair to the right. Repeat until your hair is completely dry.
7 . Blow-dry the Top Under to the Left
Take a section of your hair no wider than the diameter of your brush. Place your brush under and at the roots of your section. Then with your blow-dryer above, drag the brush up through the mid-lengths and ends of the hair following with your blow-dryer and pulling the hair to the left. Repeat until your hair is completely dry.
8 . Blow-dry Bangs Forward
When blow-drying your bangs forward, clip your hair back leaving only your bangs out. Position your bangs evenly in your brush, taking the hair in a forward direction. Blow-dry from roots to ends, keeping the tension consistent, and evenly distribute heat over the whole section of hair that you are working on. Repeat until the hair is dry. This will stop any frizz that may occur.
9 . Wax Hair Down at the Back
Apply some wax to your fingertips and then pull through the ends of your hair in a downward motion to achieve a sculptured look. Pinch clumps of hair in different directions for a messier result.
10 . Style Sides Down Using Wax
Using a small amount of wax, work it through the mid-lengths and ends in a downward, pinching motion. For added texture, apply more pinching and more wax.
11 . Style Bangs Forward Using Wax
Apply a small amount of wax to your fingertips, and then using your fingers, rake through your bangs pinching the ends as you go to create a feathered, textured effect.
12 . Apply Smoothing Shine
Apply a very small amount of smoothing shine to the palms of your hands and then run it through the mid-lengths and ends of your hair. Be careful not to add any to the roots or a large amount to any section of the hair as smoothing shine can be very heavy on the hair, weighing it down and making it appear oily.
13 . Apply Hairspray
To finish, apply a minimal amount of hairspray from an arms length distance to the top, sides and back. Take care not to use too much or you will end up with a white, flaky residue which looks like dandruff.
