RIR keeps both race weekends for 2013
Officials from Richmond International Raceway today announced that the track will continue to host two NASCAR weekends in 2013. The events will be held April 26-27 and Sept. 6-7, with the September Sprint Cup Series race again serving as the final race before the 2013 Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup (the circuit's playoff equivalent). The total financial benefit to the region as the result of both weekends – each of which includes a Nationwide Series and Sprint Cup Series race – is more than $300 million, according to RIR officials. "Bringing NASCAR back to Richmond International Raceway twice next year is huge for everyone in Greater Richmond," said RIR President Dennis Bickmeier. "The money being pumped into our economy twice a year makes a big difference in the livelihood of the 1.3 million people who call Greater Richmond home. Hotels, restaurants, grocers and many other locally owned businesses will benefit when NASCAR flocks to RIR." Tickets for the April NASCAR weekend go on sale Friday, Dec. 7. Fans who purchased tickets to this month's NASCAR weekend at RIR will be receiving renewal invitations in October. Guests who renew receive a savings on each ticket purchased, opportunity to keep their seats and may add or relocate seats before the general public.

Northwest Forest Plan: Aquatic Conservation Strategy | The Northwest Forest Plan was written to balance timber demand with wildlife needs. A part -- the Aquatic Conservation Strategy -- aims to protect salmon and clean water. The Bush administration has drastically weakened the strategy, and on March 30, 2007, a federal court found that administration acted illegally by suppressing scientific evidence. |
Mercury from Chlorine Plants | Mercury is a well-known byproduct of burning coal in power plants, but another source -- chlorine plants -- goes unmeasured, let alone regulated. An Earthjustice lawsuit seeks to force the Environmental Protection Agency to correct this dangerous situation. |
California Spotted Owl | The Fish and Wildlife Service declined to grant federal protection to the California spotted owl arguing that a management plan known as the Sierra Framework would do so -- then it gutted the framework. Earthjustice has filed suit to seek Endangered Species Act protection for the owl. |
California Logging Clean Water Exemption | The Clean Water Act is meant to clean up the nation's waterways. In some areas, however, exemptions have been issued that have hampered the goal. One such is in California, where three water boards have ruled that loggers are exempt. Earthjustice is challenging the exemptions in court. |
Dioxin Discharge in Bay | In 2000 a regional water quality control board raised by five times the amount of dioxin the Tesoro Revinery is allowed to discharge into San Francisco Bay. Dioxin is the most toxic synthetic chemical known. A lawsuit successfully challenged the permit but was reversed and is on appeal. |
Grand Canyon Humpback Chub | The population of humpback chub in the Grand Canyon has fallen by two-thirds since the species was protected 30 years ago. The reason: Glen Canyon Dam and invasive species. The recovery plan for the chub is totally inadequate to the task. Earthjustice is in court to force a better plan. |
New York Title V Permits | The state of New York issued operating permits to two large coal-fired power plants that violate provisions of the federal Clean Air Act. The Environmental Protection Agency should have invalidated the permits but failed to do so. Earthjustice is suing EPA to force it to enforce the law. |
Site Remediation Exemptions | When engineers go to clean up contaminated soil, they either 'rate the soil or heat it, turning what had been soil pollution into air pollution. The EPA used to regulate such remediation efforts, but in 2003 moved to exempt them. Earthjustice has sued to reinstate the regulations. |
Ohio Clean Air Act Enforcement | Many industrial facilities in Ohio emit illegal amounts of air pollution, operating with illegal permits or no permits at all. The Environmental Protection Agency should have taken steps long ago but has failed to so do. Earthjustice is suing to force the agency to do its job. |
Pesticide Protection for Farmworkers | The Environmental Protection Agency is allowing the continued use of azinphos-methyl and phosmet, two highly dangerous agricultural chemicals that attack human nervous systems and can cause death. Earthjustice represents farmworkers and others to halt the use of the chemicals. In April 2005, the United States Supreme Court upheld the right of people to sue pesticide maufacturers to compensate for injuries caused by toxic pesticides. Earthjustice Managing Attorney Patti Goldman was the chief author of the friend of the court brief. |
Anacostia Pollutant Discharges Challenged | The Anacostia River in the nation's capital is badly polluted by raw sewage and stormwater. A lawsuit challenges inadequate pollution limits for the river. |
Pesticide Protection for Children | The 1996 Food Quality and Protection Act requires the Environmental Protection Agency to take special steps to protect children -- including the children of farmworkers -- from agricultural chemicals. The agency has failed to do so. Earthjustice is in court to make EPA do its job. |
Iao, Waihe`e Aquifers Groundwater Management | Seeks to designate the `Iao and Waihe`e Aquifers on Maui as ground water management areas under the Hawai`i State Water Code, thereby turning over management of the aquifers to the State Commission on Water Resource Management. |
Everglades: Agricultural Pollution | The legal battle to stop agricultural pollution the Everglades of south Florida has raged for years. Earthjustice has been in it from the beginning seeking to enforce the law and protect the Everglades. |
Lake Okeechobee Backpumping, Florida |
Millions of gallons of polluted water coming off of half a million acres of sugar cane fields and cities are pumped into Lake Okeechobee by the South Florida Water Management District. The discharge contaminates drinking water supplies and fertilizes toxic blue-green algae blooms. Earthjustice filed suit demanding the district obtain Clean Water Act permits for its discharges and comply with water quality standards in the lake. On December 11, 2006, a federal district judge in Miami ruled that the district must comply with the Clean Water Act. And on Jun 15, 2007, a federal court issued an injunction requiring the South Florida Water Management District to apply for pollution permits to engage in pumping dirty water into the lake. As a result of our victory in court, one of the larger landowners near Lake Okeechobee, U.S. Sugar -- which farming operations resulted in polluted water being pumped back into Lake Okeechobee -- negotiated with the state of Florida to sell its 185,000 acres of lands and shut down the sugar growing and processing operations. With large-scale sugar processing phased out, once again the natural flow of water will return and help to restore the Everglades. |

Air passes to the lungs through airways called bronchi. Bronchitis is the swelling of the bronchi. It can make breathing difficult.
There are different types of bronchitis such as:
- Acute bronchitis—This is a sudden onset of symptoms. It only lasts a short time and lung function is fully recovered.
- Chronic bronchitis —This is a serious, long-term condition. It causes blockage and damage of the lungs. It is often the result of many years of cigarette smoking .
This fact sheet focuses on acute bronchitis.
The swelling in the bronchi may be caused by:
- Viral or bacterial infections
- Irritation from smoke
Breathing in certain irritants (usually in a work setting) such as:
- Ammonia
- Chlorine
- Minerals
- Vegetable dusts
Symptoms of acute bronchitis may include:
- Cough
- Increased sputum production
- Trouble breathing
- Wheezing
You may also have other cold or flu symptoms such as slight fever, sore throat, and nasal congestion.
Your doctor will ask you about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
Tests are rarely needed. The following may be recommended if the bronchitis is severe or the diagnosis is not clear:
- Blood test
- Chest x-rays —to check for other conditions such as pneumonia
- Sputum cultures to check for the presence of unusual bacteria
Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Treatment options include:
to treat pain and fever
- Note : Aspirin is not recommended for children or teens with a current or recent viral infection. This is because of the risk of Reye's syndrome . Ask your doctor which other medicines are safe for your child.
Expectorants or cough suppressants
- There are some concerns about the safety of over-the-counter cough and cold products in children. The FDA recommends that these products not be used in children less than 2 years old. The FDA also supports not using them in children less than 4 years old.
- Albuterol to help open airways if there are signs of breathing difficulty
- Herbs and supplements — Pelargonium sidoides extract may help resolve symptoms in patients with acute bronchitis
- Increased fluid intake
- Cool mist humidifier—to ease breathing
Antibiotics will not be helpful if the infection is caused by a virus. Most of these infections are caused by viruses.
If you are diagnosed with bronchitis, follow your doctor's instructions .
To reduce your chance of getting bronchitis, follow these steps:
- Avoid contact with people who have respiratory viral or bacterial infections.
- Stop smoking or never start.
- Avoid passive smoke.
- Avoid exposure to irritants in the air.

Rafting, Kayaking & Canoeing
Paddlers seeking fun, adventure and amazing natural beauty will find what they're looking for on Maine's abundant inland and coastal waters. With thousands of miles of ocean coastline, thousands of miles of rivers and streams and thousands of lakes and ponds, there's a lifetime of paddling opportunities here, whether you choose to go by canoe, kayak or raft.
Canoeing is a Maine tradition and a great way to experience our scenic rivers and lakes. The Allagash Wilderness Waterway is a canoeing classic, as is the St. John River. The Penobscot, Kennebec and Dead Rivers offer a range of canoe tripping, from challenging whitewater to calm float trips. And the lakes and ponds from the south coast to Aroostook County provide an abundance of canoeing possibilities.
Kayak among the coastal islands, past sea cliffs and along our sandy beaches and experience Maine's rich ocean heritage, incredible scenery, and shorebirds and sea mammals. Our inland lakes and ponds amid the fragrant balsam woods and forested mountain peaks offer equally rewarding kayaking adventures.
Test your paddling and playboating skills on the challenging Class III-V rapids, waves and holes of the Kennebec, Dead and Penobscot Rivers, or take to the easier Class I-II sections of these and many other Maine rivers and streams for an unforgettable river kayaking trip.
Let an expert Maine river guide lead you down the whitewater of Maine's big river gorges in a big inflatable raft, paddling through impossible-looking waves and rapids with hollers and cheers. When you finally reach the calmer water, enjoy a delicious riverside cookout, take a refreshing swim, and revel in the fun and laughter with a raft full of family and friends.
Maine has a host of outfitters that will provide you with complete equipment rentals, from sea kayaks to river kayaks to canoes, expert instruction in paddling techniques and safety, and shuttle services. Registered Maine Guides can lead you on half-day and full-day trips, as well as overnight and multi-day trips, and ensure that your paddling adventure is all the more special. Lodging options range from camping to cabins to lodges, many with hearty home-style meals.

"3 days of Dark & Gloom, Handicapped Disrespect"
Reviewed Dec 2, 2013
Displaced-Critic | Nashville, Tennessee
This hotel radiated a feel of cheap gloominess. Firstly our bathroom didn't have all of its light bulbs, it only had 3 bulbs out of the 5 light sockets. Since the room and bathroom were dark, it was important to have those extra lights. I eventually was able to get the other 2 bulbs but only after dealing with multiple front-desk people more than 12 hours later. The lady who finally helped us apologized about the new bulbs because they were so dim. Even after adding those bulbs you still couldn't see well. If you brushed your teeth and tongue, it was impossible to see if your tongue was clean or still had white on it. Unfortunately the less than bright bulbs were also in use in the rest of the room. The carpet is dark red & black. The walls are dark red and very large black head-boards. I've attached a photo, the window is open so you have sun light in the room but the phone still flashed. Breakfast was abysmal. The other guests agreed whole-heartedly, so it wasn't just us. Oddly the front desk also ran breakfast, so don't get in a hurry if you need something. They love to take down the breakfast before its time to end as well, so get there early. Also caught them removing stuff and hiding it an hour before shutdown on Saturday, not sure what they were thinking. Their excuse was that they were bringing out fresh items to replace it. I'm not sure you can find any freshing peanut butter in sealed cups in the back though. And this is just one example. The maids have a thing for slamming the door to the `maid room`. Do not get a room near it. If you ask them to stop slamming the door, they tend to retaliate by not cleaning your room or replacing the towels. Seriously! When they do clean your room, they do not replace things like the plastic cups. If you don't like trains, sleep on the back side of the hotel. Several trains run during the night just on the other side of the road from the hotel. This might seem trivial to some people but the entire 3 days we were there, Every Employee Parked in Handicap parking next to the front door. After day 2 I started checking tags. None of them were handicap. Wow is this a lazy bunch! Once a cop came through the parking lot and made them move out of the spots but the next shift they filed them up again. Talk about a lack of respect toward the handicapped.

I recently stayed at this hotel for a business event in the hotels meeting room and I highly recommend staying at this hotel. Marlon who works at this location provides EXCEPTIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE, Marlon not only goes above and beyond for the customer, but he is also very professional, friendly and is willing to assist you with no hesitation. Marlon is actually the friendliest and most helpful person I have ever encountered the Laquinta inn and It's refreshing to meet someone like Marlon working at this hotel. The hotel is also very clean and extremely modern and comfortable. I think all hotels should have someone like Marlon representing them.

This stop was a surprise. It has a crystal, clear heated outdoor pool but we did not swim. This is a new hotel, very modern fixtures, colors, big fluffy towels, fine bed linens and great beds. My husband and I were in room 105 with two queen beds, microwave and small refrigerator. Very clean and quiet. Courteous staff. I wish every hotel booking was this fine. Complete hot breakfast with waffles, scrambled eggs, sausage and the usual cereal, yogurt... I would definitely book again if I was in the area.

Christmas gifts, TVs stolen from Hugo home |
Wednesday, 09 December 2009 20:31 | |||
By Amber Hanneken Staff Writer HUGO — Officers reported a burglary at a residence on the 800 block of west Main Street in Hugo Tuesday. The thieves entered the home while the victim was away and took a big screen TV, a smaller TV, a bike and all of the Christmas gifts under the tree. Officer Steve Babcock said bleach was also poured on the victim's furniture. "People need to be more aware of people in your area walking around or vehicles driving by more than once," Babcock said. "If you're suspicious about anything or anyone you need to call us ... We might not catch anybody in the act but it might avert someone." Babcock said there also has been a string of vehicle burglaries. He advised people to not leave purses or other valuable items in their cars. The police department has put emphasis on controling the thefts and will continue to patrol.

I've been an avid cyclist for over a decade. I raced back in the day and now stick to commuting and touring. I also like to do my own maintenance, rebuild a bike here and there, and whenever I get a new bike (again, not as often as I'd like) I usually pick each part out individually and build it from the ground up.
I've been learning web development for some time now. I'm self-teaching in my spare time, so it's slow progress.
I've also recently discovered the wonderful world of Linux. I wouldn't call myself a "power user" so it's even slower progress than the web development.
I've been working in libraries for over a decade. I'm currently a Senior Public Services Associate at the Daniel Boone Regional Library.

Our bodies, which create a tremendous amount of internal heat, are normally cooled through sweating and radiating heat through our skin. Under certain circumstances, such as unusually high temperatures, high humidity, or vigorous exercise in hot weather, this natural cooling system may begin to fail, allowing internal heat to build up to dangerous levels. The result may be heat illness, which can result in heat cramps, heat exhaustion, or heatstroke.
Heat cramps are brief, severe cramps in the muscles of the legs, arms, or abdomen that may occur during or after vigorous exercise in extreme heat. The sweating that occurs with vigorous exercise causes the body to lose salts and fluids. And the low level of salts causes the muscles to cramp.
Kids are particularly susceptible to heat cramps when they haven't been drinking enough fluids. Although painful, heat cramps aren't serious.
Most heat cramps don't require special treatment. A cool place, rest, and fluids should ease a child's discomfort. Massaging cramped muscles may also help.
Heat exhaustion is a more severe heat illness that can occur when someone in a hot climate or environment hasn't been drinking enough fluids. Symptoms may include:
If left untreated, heat exhaustion may escalate into heatstroke, which can be fatal.
The most severe form of heat illness, heatstroke is a life-threatening medical emergency. The body loses its ability to regulate its own temperature. Body temperature can soar to 106° F (41.1° C) or even higher, leading to brain damage or even death if it isn't quickly treated. Prompt medical treatment is required to bring the body temperature under control.
Factors that increase the risk for heatstroke include overdressing and extreme physical exertion in hot weather with inadequate fluid intake.
Heatstroke also can happen when a child is left in, or becomes accidentally trapped in, a car on a hot day. When the outside temperature is 93° F (33.9° C), the temperature inside a car can reach 125° F (51.7° C) in just 20 minutes, quickly raising body temperature to dangerous levels.
Call for emergency medical help if your child has been outside in the sun exercising for a long time and shows one or more of these symptoms of heatstroke:
While waiting for help:
To help protect kids from heat illness:

American Art Rachel Weeping Enlarged in 1776; repainted in 1818 Made in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States, North and Central America1772, enlarged 1776; retouched 1818 Charles Willson Peale, American, 1741 - 1827 Oil on canvas * Gallery 102, American Art, first floor (Flammer Gallery) 1977-34-1 Gift of The Barra Foundation, Inc., 1977 |
LabelIn 1776 Charles Willson Peale added a portrait of his wife, Rachel, to his earlier commemorative portrait of their daughter Margaret, who died of smallpox in 1772. The newly enlarged composition, seen here, demonstrated Peale's artistic sophistication by evoking the traditional image of the Virgin and child, which underlined the sacredness of this familial bond. Viewing the picture in 1776, John Adams wrote he was "much moved by it." In 1782 Peale advertised Mrs. Peale Lamenting the Death of Her Child as a feature of his new painting room but sequestered it behind a curtain with the warning: "Before you draw this curtain Consider whether you will afflict a Mother or Father who has lost a Child."Social Tags [?]baby [x] charles wilson peale [x] deceased [x] john adams on peale [x] nhd 1783 to 1815 medicine [x] nhd 1783 to 1815 portrait [x] peale [x] peale family [x] rachel weeping [x] [Add Your Own Tags]* Works in the collection are moved off view for many different reasons.

European Painting before 1900, Johnson Collection The Thorny Path Made in France, Europe1873 Thomas Couture, French, 1815 - 1879 Oil on canvas * Gallery 151, European Art 1850-1900, first floor (Annenberg Galleries; Colket Gallery) EW1986-10-1 Purchased with the W. P. Wilstach Fund, the George W. Elkins Fund, and the Edith H. Bell Fund, 1986 |
LabelThe Thorny Path is Couture's satire of decadent French society. A courtesan drives a carriage pulled not by animals but by four male captives who represent different ages and states of society. The naked old man leading the procession is flabby from indulgence; the troubadour following him, a symbol of young love, parodies the medieval ballads popular in nineteenth century France. The old soldier bends his head in self-reproach, and the young student writes as he walks, symbolizing the educated nobility's ignorance of the realities of daily life. The thistles and thorny plants along the road suggest the painfulness of their journey. The decrepit figure seated at the rear of the carriage with a bottle of wine in her basket foreshadows the courtesan's future. Finally, Couture signed his initials on the stone figure at center, which seems to be laughing at the entourage.Social Tags [?]carriage [x] duty [x] gluttony [x] matriarchy [x] status [x] symbolist [x] thorn [x] [Add Your Own Tags]* Works in the collection are moved off view for many different reasons.

Comments about Melissa & Doug Sunny Patch Bella Butterfly Hopscotch:
I bought this hopscotch set for my daughter for her 3rd birthday. Although she doesn't totally get the rules of hopscotch, she LOVES it! She likes to put it together and count and jump on the squares. It seems very durable so far! Great buy and I am sure we will be using this for years to come!!

Am I eligible for financial aid? To be eligible for federal student aid you must meet the general eligibility requirements as required by the department of education.
How do I apply for financial aid at Governors State University? To apply for most aid programs that Governors State offers, students will fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) online at www.fafsa.gov. Student will need to be sure to list Governors State University as a school they want the information sent to by entering GSU's school code, 009145.
Information on how to apply for scholarships is available on our scholarships page.
Veteran and military students can also contact the Coordinator of Veterans Affairs, Keith White, at 708-534-2223 for information on how to apply for veteran and military benefits.
I filled out a FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid), why hasn't Governors State offered me any financial aid? You must be degree seeking and admitted before the Financial Aid Office will process your financial aid application. However, you do not have to be admitted to GSU to apply for financial aid.
You must complete a FAFSA or Renewal FAFSA every year to be considered for financial aid (this includes student loans). Students also may not be awarded if their FAFSA was selected for verification by the Department of Education.
Why was I not awarded for the Summer semester? To be awarded financial aid for the Summer semester, students need to complete a summer financial aid request. The form is made available online and at our office in February.
What is verification and why do I need to bring in these documents? The Department of Education selects a number of FAFSAs from each school every year to be verified. Some are selected at random, while others may have data that does not match what is on file with the Internal Revenue Service or other government agencies. When a student has been selected, our office cannot award any federal financial aid until that file has been verified. The documents that are requested by our office (ex: W2 forms, IRS Tax Return Transcripts, Verification Worksheets) are being requested to verify the information you submitted on your FAFSA and to clear up any discrepancies. More information is available on our verification page.
When will I get my financial aid refund? Due to federal guidelines, the earliest that our office can transmit federal student aid is ten days before the start of the semester. Financial aid is always used to pay any tuition and fees for the semester. If any aid remains after that payment, the remaining money is sent to the student as a refund after being processed in the Financial Services office.
After the first disbursement of the semester, the Financial Aid Office transmits aid money every Tuesday. Refunds are usually processed 3-5 days after the money is transmitted from the Office of Financial Aid.
How do I buy my books? Are there book vouchers? Governors State University does not provide students with any book vouchers or advance funds for books. If you plan on receiving a financial aid refund, you can use that money for your books. However, you should come to campus with funds to purchase books and supplies even if you are expecting to receive a refund.
Why are my student loans not paying for my classes?
Why haven't I received an award letter in the mail? Award letters are only mailed to students who are set to begin their first semester at Governors State University. All students can view, accept, or reject their awards through myGSU online portal. Just go to the Online Services tab and select Financial Aid to find the option to accept or reject your awards.
Can I increase/decrease my loan amounts? GSU encourages students to be conservative borrowers. We will be awarding only the Subsidized Loan amounts for Undergraduate Students ($5500 for Fall/Spring) and $12000 in Unsubsidized Loans for Graduate Students (Fall/Spring.) Should you wish to request additional Unsubsidized Loans, you may do so by completing a Revision Request - Federal Direct Loan Increase. If you have remaining loan eligibility, we will process these increased amounts.
If you would like to decrease or cancel your loans, you can complete a Revision Request – Federal Direct Loan Reduction.
What is the most I can take out in student loans? The federal government has set maximums that students may borrow in Federal Direct Stafford Loans. Those limits are determined by dependency status and whether a student is undergraduate or graduate/professional. More information on federal loans can be found on the federal student aid website. Student loans and other financial aid awards being received cannot exceed the cost of attendance that has been calculated for the student's program for that academic year.
Why was my financial aid suspended? The federal government requires that all students make satisfactory academic progress towards their degree. All students must complete (without failing or withdrawing from) at least 67% of the classes they attempt and keep a minimum GPA (2.0 for undergraduate students, 3.0 for graduate and professional students) to be eligible for financial aid. If your aid is suspended, you can file a satisfactory academic progress (SAP) appeal. Information and the appeal form are available on the forms page.
Can I use my financial aid to help with my bills? Yes. Financial aid can be used to help a student with bills and other education related expenses while they are enrolled in school. Be careful and budget ahead of time to make sure you'll have enough for school and not take out any student loan funds that you will not need.

Prints, Drawings, and Photographs Harpo Marx 1937 Salvador Dalí, Spanish, 1904 - 1989 Graphite and ink on coated card stock Currently not on view 1986-26-8 The Henry P. McIlhenny Collection in memory of Frances P. McIlhenny, 1986 |
LabelDalí's admiration for the horn-honking, trench-coated Harpo Marx, the second oldest and most charismatic of the Marx Brothers, led him to create this portrait of the sweet-natured comedian during a visit to Hollywood in February 1937. The drawing makes reference to an elaborate harp, assembled with barbed-wire strings and adorned with teaspoons and forks for tuning knobs, that Dalí had sent to Harpo as a Christmas present two months earlier. Harpo was so delighted with the strange musical instrument that he immediately sent Dalí a photograph of himself with bandaged fingers, thus pretending that he had unwittingly plucked the barbed-wire strings with his bare hands. |
