Community Services - Projects
The Community Services Department is responsible for overseeing all Township construction projects ensuring that they remain within budget and meet all standards for public construction.
Completed Projects
West Chester Safety Services Center Roof Recovery Project
The West Chester Safety and Services Center, located at 9577 Beckett Road, serves as home to the West Chester Police Department, Community Development, and Maintenance & Roads Division. Butler County Area III Courts also leases space in this building.
The facility, originally completed in 1997, is a large prefabricated metal building with approximately 186,500 square feet under roof. The building was built originally to serve as Auto Nation and was later purchased by the Township. Several paint booths installed in the facility and attached to the steel frame of the building during its original use caused structural issues and the deflection in the structure and roof has caused numerous leaks over the years.
The West Chester Safety Services Center Roof Recovery Project encompasses structural improvements within the building, designed to meet current code requirements and support the additional structural loads of the new roof system. A new roof system including additional insulation will be designed and constructed over the existing roof on the facility.
The project began in August 2011 and was completed in August 2012. The project budget of $2.4 million and is being financed through Tax Increment Financing (TIF).
Voice of America Museum, Phase II, Roof Replacement and Block Repair
The second phase of exterior work to restore the former Voice of America Bethany Station and the future home of The National Voice of America Museum of Broadcasting was completed in early 2012. This portion of the project involved extensive demolition, completing the remaining roof replacement, new block installation and repair of existing exterior block wall and painting the exterior of the back section of the building. Some interior work, including insulation and drywall were also part of this phase of the project.
The project is being funded through a grant from the Ohio Cultural Facilities Commission.
Project Budget: $500,000
Beckett Park - Phase III
Phase III development of the 150-acre park that straddles Beckett Road was completed in summer 2012.
Boardwalks and walking paths have been constructed around two improved lakes on the west side of the park. The boardwalk allows visitors to walk over the wetland areas connecting users to the trails in the park. Walking paths on the west side of the park are a combination of asphalt and grass trails.
The west side of the park is designed to have a natural appearance as the ponds will be surrounded by meadow grasses. It will take some time for residents to enjoy the full effect of the plantings.
The water feature also serves as an ice rink when temperatures permit and a neighboring picnic shelter with fireplace available for rent.
A Boundless Playground on the east side of the park between the Muhlhauser Barn and the West Chester Baseball Complex is open to the public andis accessible to all was constructed with support from Boundless Playgrounds, CVS Caremark and Procter & Gamble. The playground shelter is open for use, but cannot be reserved.
Project Budget is $2 million
Voice of America Museum, Façade and Electrical Renovations
West Chester has completed some restoration of The Voice of America Bethany Station on Tylersville Road with funds provided through the State of Ohio Cultural Facilities Commission..
The building's block facade (front of the building), windows and entry doors have been completely replaced reflecting the original appearance of the building. Period lighting fixtures have also been installed making the building a focal point at all times of day or night.
A second phase of restoration is currently being considered.
The building is currently closed to visitors.
Project Budget is $1.75 million.
Fire Headquarters & Station 71
West Chester Fire Headquarters and Station 71 were completed in fall 2009. The new facility meets current standards for essential buildings and features areas for training.
This project also incorporated construction of the Township's new CIT building which was completed earlier in the year.
Total Project Budget is $13 million
West Chester Library
The new West Chester Library at Union Centre was opened to the public on Nov. 15, 2009.
The new library was constructed utilizing tax increment financing. Middletown Library System operates and manages the new building.

- Smooth, mild flavor
- Firm texture, cylindrical shape
- Aged about 3 months
- High cream content
- Raw sheep's milk cheese
- Size - About 1.1 lbs/500 g
Pata de Mulo is a wonderful introduction to Spanish sheep's milk cheeses. It has a mild citrus flavor with a firm, creamy texture. Serve it at room temperature with fruit or mebrillo jelly and a glass of Spanish red wine.
With a high cream content, its texture is smooth and pleasant. And compared to other sheep's milk cheeses it is relatively low in acidity, making for a flavorful yet approachable cheese.
Pata de Mulo is a classic semi-aged cheese from Castille y León, formed on a wooden plank into its distinctive oblong shape, which looks a bit like a mule's hoof - hence its colorful name! It is aged from 3 to 4 months until it is fairly dense with a pearly gray rind.
Bring this Pata de Mulo Spanish cheese to room temperature before slicing. It may have a slight amount of harmless mold on its rind, simply wipe away with a cloth and some vegetable oil.
Aged sheep's milk, rennet, lactic ferments and salt.

The Brown-Headed Cowbird has a wide range along the North American continent. It can be found in thickets, pastures, woodland edges and residential areas.
The female does not build her own nest. Instead, she waits until another bird temporarily leaves its nest of eggs, then she places her eggs in the nest with the other eggs.
The male Brown-Headed Cowbird has black shiny feathers with a brown head and neck, while the female is grayish brown. Both species of this songbird have a pointed beak, black eyes, black legs, and a long tail and wings.
Weighing in at 1 1/3 to 1 3/4 ounces, the Brown-Headed Cowbird can reach a length between 7 - 9 inches.
[back to top]
The Brown-Headed Cowbird has a wide range along the North American continent. It can be found from central British Columbia in Canada southward through the United States and central Mexico.
The Brown-Headed Cowbird migrates to the southern and eastern parts of the United States as well as the Pacific coast, and travels as far as southern areas of Mexico.
Although it breeds in woodland edges, thickets, and pastures, the Brown-Headed Cowbird also ventures into residential areas.
It is often found on farmland among the farm animals that are grazing in the fields.

CINCINNATI (MarketWatch) -- The Standard & Poor's 500 Index's closing high for this cycle was established last week at the 1,010 resistance level.
And while this marks a potential resting point for the current rally -- a pullback that may be underway with this week's downturn -- the U.S. markets still seem to be headed higher in the longer term, as detailed below.
The S&P 500's hourly chart details the past three weeks. It shows the S&P responded well to last week's jobs report, briefly notching what might be called a higher high.
From current levels, initial support holds in the 996 area, and is followed by another floor at 982.
Meanwhile, the Dow's near-term view is similar.
Again, the Dow confirmed its uptrend last week, notching a "higher high."
Yet with this week's downturn, initial support holds in the 9,200 area, and is followed by another floor around 9,125.
And the Nasdaq was the only major benchmark not to break higher on last week's jobs report.
Nonetheless, the index has established an eight-session trading range, working off its near-term overbought condition.
From current levels, first support holds around 1,980 and is followed by last week's low of 1,967.
Widening the view to six months adds color.
Following the steep July rally, a pullback, or sideways consolidation phase is obviously in order.
Nonetheless, the decisive breakout is longer-term bullish, and its tight eight-session band near the highs suggests sell pressure is limited at current levels despite the run.
Moving to the Dow, it's extended the break atop the January peak.
At the same time, the 200-day's slope turned higher last week for the first time this cycle, supporting the bull case.
Note the bowties of several significant moving averages (not all illustrated) is constructive, consistent with a major market trendshift.
And the S&P 500 continues to work on resistance at the 1,010 target.
Its closing high last week - and its highest close for this cycle - precisely matched that level.
The bigger picture
As detailed above, the S&P 500's closing high for this cycle, at least so far, holds at the 1,010 resistance.
This area is technically notable as follows:
-- The S&P's November high was established the day of the U.S. presidential election, at 1,007.
-- The mid-October open/close high held at 1,010.
-- The 1,013 level marks a 38% Fibonacci retracement of the market crash.
Yet to this point, the sell pressure at S&P 1,010 has been limited, keeping the U.S. markets' uptrend intact.
With this in mind, a much wider view of both the Nasdaq and the S&P 500 points to a possible explanation.
Starting with the Nasdaq, this next chart is a two-year view with each bar representing a week.
Looking back to September and October, the index completely fell off a cliff.
In fact, it plunged from 2,152 to 1,542 - across just two weeks - punctuating a 28.3% crash.
Meanwhile, the S&P 500's two-year view is similar.

Which means that it will not exit the currently running tasklet where you explicitly cooperatively schedule or yield using some other manner, but in a preemptive manner. As long as you know that. At CCP Games we take a different approach, which you can read about in the slideshow Kristján Jónsson gave at PyCon 2006. Instead of interrupting the permanently scheduled tasklets, we use custom yielding methods (BeNice, Sleep or on a channel waiting for an event) and never schedule to divert all the scheduled tasklets so that it is natural for all tasklets that have been scheduled to run once and then the scheduler will be empty. At which point the watchdog exits cleanly, cooperative scheduling is maintained and the embedding C++ code can do whatever it needs. From what Kristján tells me (I don't work on this section of code myself) it is common that the scheduler is empty so we use a very large timeout for the watchdog in order to detect badly programmed tasklets which are infinite looping or something similar.

(USA TODAY) -- When the University of South Carolina opens preseason footballpractice Friday night, the plan is to have the Gamecocks, includingdefensive star Jadeveon Clowney, outfitted in Guardian Caps. The paddedshells, made of polyurethane fabric, are designed to fit over helmetsand reduce impacts to the head.
There's controversy whether thecaps violate helmet certification standards. But South Carolina tried 32of them on linemen in the spring, liked them and bought 75 more to goteam-wide for practice, says athletic trainer Clint Haggard.
"I'vetalked to our team physicians and discussed all that stuff, and I'vetalked to a bunch of people around the country," says Haggard. "Andwe're still going to use them. ... It seems like it will help."
MORE: Star system for rating helmets
Playersafety has become the catch phrase for colleges and pro football, withthe NCAA and the NFL also facing lawsuits over concussions. Punishmentin college football this season for "targeting" -- taking aim,especially at the head or neck, with apparent intent beyond a legaltackle or block -- will include ejection. The NFL is requiring playersto wear more pads and will penalize running backs who lead with thecrown of their helmets.
Lee Hanson, founder of the firm making theGuardian Cap, says his product reduces head impacts "up to 33%" in labtests. He gave out the caps them out for testing in 2011, sold about8,000 in 2012 ($55 individually with team discounts) and anticipates Heanticipated about 12,000 being used among youth, high school and collegeteams across the USA and Canada this year. Thirty-five states haveschools and/or leagues using at least 20 Guardian Caps.
TheGuardian Caps have compartments padded with foam rubber that arearranged on top of the helmets, and Hanson says using these compartmentsdissipates energy better than a solid shell. One issue is whether softshells might stick together or be more easily grabbed and cause neckinjuries. Hanson says his caps "just slip off of each other."
"Our goal," Hanson says, "is to provide the best protection to a kidas possible. ... If you want to protect your shoulders, you wearshoulder pads. And if you want to protect your head, you put morepadding. More padding on anything is better."
Build aconcussion-proof football helmet and the world will beat a path to yourdoor. Shy of that wishful goal, there's a surge in the business oftrying to protect the brain.
*A Pennsylvania firm offers extra head padding that includes bullet-proof vest material.
*Riddell,official helmet of the NFL and a co-defendant in the concussionlawsuits, is introducing this season a sensor system in the helmet thattransmits when impacts exceed a player's history on hits, geared foryouth and high school teams.
*Reebok has a new impact sensor that flashes when impacts exceed certain thresholds.
Sowhy does the Colorado High School Activities Association warn that anyschool using the Guardian Caps in games will not be in compliance withthe National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment(NOCSAE), which sets helmet certification, and cautions groups to "seekmore information" before using caps at any time.
Indeed, Hansonsays he has lost an order for 500 caps from a California youth leagueand other orders from various U.S. school districts, and at least oneleague is returning its 300 in use.
"There are coaches andathletic trainers and parents that have seen Guardian on their childrenfor the last two years, and they've seen the number of injuries decreaseon those teams," says Hanson. "Now, you're going to tell them to takethem off?"
Standards in question
Makers of sensorsdon't claim they diagnose concussions; the sensors are promoted asscreening tools. Makers of extra padding don't claim to preventconcussions, but they say they the padding reduces impacts.
NOCSAErecently stated that add-ons to helmets could void certification andwarned It warns against "quick solutions." It says the primary focusshould be limiting "unnecessary" hits and medical handling ofconcussions.
"Equipment changes are probably fourth or fifth onthe list of things that are going to make the biggest difference. Maybeeven further down," says Mike Oliver, NOCSAE executive director.
NOCSAEsets test standards, which involve using sensors to measure impacts ondummy heads inside helmets. Helmet makers do the tests -- Oliver sayseach model needs its own testing and that changes mandate newcertification.
"If you talk to any doctor out there, you're goingto get 14 different opinions on what causes a concussion," Hanson says."We don't know if it's a big hit or if it's a whole bunch of littlehits. ... We can prove scientifically (Guardian Caps) reduce that amountof impact."
But Oliver says the caps are in "a little bit of agray area" according to NOCSAE's position that a helmet addition that"changes or alters the protective system by adding or deletingprotective padding ... or which changes or alters the geometry of theshell or adds mass to the helmet, whether temporary or permanent, voidsthe certification of compliance."
Nonsense, says Haggard: "The waythat thing was written, anything you put on there, whether it be a faceshield or anything like that, falls under that category."
Lastyear, Unequal Technologies of Kennett Square, Pa., introduced helmetpadding "fortified with Kevlar." The padding, with a sticky surface,fitted over existing pads. Unequal still has that product. But this yearit also has padding designed to be fit inside the helmet but notaffixed, the Gyro (at $79.95). There is also a padded skull cap, theDome ($89.95).
Robert Vito, president of Unequal, saysPhiladelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick will use the skull cap,that roughly 100 NFL players use Unequal head padding and about 10,000players at all levels use it. Vito has issues with NOCSAE.
"Toblindly say that anything that goes in, on or around the helmet will nowvoid the certification needs to be recanted," says Vito, who urgesNOCSAE to make sure "we're not leaving a lot of great products on thesideline."
Haggard says linemen at South Carolina with the Guardian Caps in the spring had no concussions.
"Theycould tell the difference in the perceived impact," he says. "Iactually had some of our linebackers and some of our fullbacks come tome and say, 'Hey, I want to try this out, too.' "
At the Juneannual meeting of the National Athletic Trainers' Association,University of North Carolina concussion researcher Kevin Guskiewicz toldattendees said there is no such thing as a concussion-proof helmet. Hesaid while Helmets prevent fractured skulls, he said, but the brain isstill "sloshing around" after a hit.
"So those neurons are stillbeing stretched," Guskiewicz said, "86 billion neurons that we have inthe human brain. ... There are no studies ... to show that in fact thesedevices (extra helmet padding) reduce concussion."
Sensors to monitor hits
Hits happen. Assorted devices are designed to sense them and measure them.
Riddell'sInSite Impact Response System includes a sensor pad in the liner of thehelmet that transmits when certain impact levels are exceeded to ahandheld "alert monitor" on the sideline. Software stores data on playerhistories of exposures to hits. It's priced at $150 per helmet (if youalready have a helmet) and the monitor is free with 12 helmet units($200 if bought separately). The product is an offshoot of Riddellsystems used by college teams and researchers.
X2 Biosystems ofSeattle has the X-Patch, a small, sensor-equipped patch to be wornbehind the neck. It transmits hits data to a mobile device. Now used bycollege athletes in research, it will be sold commercially in 2014, sayscompany co-founder Rich Able.
"Our tools are not going to make adiagnosis," he said. "Our tools are just giving data to the people whoare highly knowledgeable about head injuries."
Reebok's newCheckLight ($150) has an impact sensor in a skull cap. An LED light onthe rear is designed to flash yellow or red (more severe) when impactsmeet hit certain thresholds. It does not transmit data but displays howmany hits occur in practice or a game.
"It's just an extra set ofeyes ... to just pull the athlete off the field as soon as possibleafter a light is triggered to assess the athlete," says Bob Rich, Reebokdirector of advanced concepts.
Chris Nowinski, co-founder ofBoston's Sports Legacy Institute, advocates a "Hit Count" to keep headimpacts, especially in youths, at a minimum: "Simply trying to get feweryellows and reds (with CheckLight) is important."
PatrickKersey, medical director of the USA Football national youthorganization, says sensors are promising but not yet of proven value.
"Alot of the newer products we have out there are very exciting," hesays. "The problem we have in the medical world is that we don't havevalidation that states if they are actually helpful tools -- or are theyneat and flashy tools?"

The Nine: Inside the Secret World of the Supreme Courtby Jeffrey Toobin
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Bestselling author Jeffrey Toobin takes you into the chambers of the most important — and secret — legal body in our country, the Supreme Court, and reveals the complex dynamic among the nine people who decide the law of the land.
Just in time for the 2008 presidential election — where the future of the Court will be at stake — Toobin reveals an institution at a moment of transition, when decades of conservative disgust with the Court have finally produced a conservative majority, with major changes in store on such issues as abortion, civil rights, presidential power, and church-state relations.
Based on exclusive interviews with justices themselves, The Nine tells the story of the Court through personalities — from Anthony Kennedy's overwhelming sense of self-importance to Clarence Thomas's well-tended grievances against his critics to David Souter's odd nineteenth-century lifestyle. There is also, for the first time, the full behind-the-scenes story of Bush v. Gore — and Sandra Day O'Connor's fateful breach with George W. Bush, the president she helped place in office.
The Nine is the book bestselling author Jeffrey Toobin was born to write. A CNN senior legal analyst and New Yorker staff writer, no one is more superbly qualified to profile the nine justices.
"'It's not laws or constitutional theory that rule the High Court, argues this absorbing group profile, but quirky men and women guided by political intuition. New Yorker legal writer Toobin (The Run of His Life: The People v. O.J. Simpson) surveys the Court from the Reagan administration onward, as the justices wrestled with abortion, affirmative action, the death penalty, gay rights and church-state separation. Despite a Court dominated by Republican appointees, Toobin paints not a conservative revolution but a period of intractable moderation. The real power, he argues, belonged to supreme swing-voter Sandra Day O'Connor, who decided important cases with what Toobin sees as an 'almost primal' attunement to a middle-of-the-road public consensus. By contrast, he contends, conservative justices Rehnquist and Scalia ended up bitter old men, their rigorous constitutional doctrines made irrelevant by the moderates' compromises. The author deftly distills the issues and enlivens his narrative of the Court's internal wranglings with sharp thumbnail sketches (Anthony Kennedy the vain bloviator, David Souter the Thoreauvian ascetic) and editorials ('inept and unsavory' is his verdict on the Court's intervention in the 2000 election). His savvy account puts the supposedly cloistered Court right in the thick of American life. (A final chapter and epilogue on the 2006 — 2007 term, with new justices Roberts and Alito, was unavailable to PW.) (Sept. 18)' Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)" Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
"A major achievement, lucid and probing." Bob Woodward, co-author of The Brethren
"This is a remarkable, riveting book. So great are Toobin's narrative skills that both the justices and their inner world are brought vividly to life." Doris Kearns Goodwin
"Driven by the author's assured narrative voice, The Nine is as informative as it is fascinating, as insightful as it is readable." Michiko Kakutani, New York Times
"[A] fascinating inside look at the most secretive branch of government. Toobin writes beautifully, and the book is impossible to put down." Seattle Times
"Readers who share the author's left-of-center outlook will likely delight in Toobin's account. Others, looking for a more nuanced, politically neutral analysis may have to search elsewhere." Christian Science Monitor
"The Nine profiles the often quirky justices that make up the members of our most recent Supreme Court. Toobin's access to the Supremes and to their secret little world is phenomenal." Chicago Sun-Times
"Based on interviews with some of the justices and about 75 of their former clerks, The Nine is anecdotally rich and clearly written." USA Today
Book News Annotation:
Basing his work in no small part on interviews with the justices, Toobin (a CNN senior legal analyst and New Yorker staff writer) has constructed an inside-the-beltway account of the United States Supreme Court under Chief Justices Rehnquist and Roberts. The individual personalities sitting on the bench drive the narrative, in particular the longstanding swing voter Sandra Day O'Connor, and Toobin concentrates his discussion on the more sensationalistic "hot-button" cases decided by the court, such as Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania v. Robert P. Casey, Bush v. Gore, and Lawrence v. Texas. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

This program will allow homeschool dancers who have a passion for Christ and dance performance to come together, putting their gifts of choreographing and dance toward a production. The production will be made up of: group dances, trios, solos, and duets. There will be some fees associated with the program, currently this is TBA. The fees will be based on studio rental prices, dance instructor time and costumes (don't be alarmed, costumes will be very simple, and we may reuse some costumes you already have from previous dance recitals).
The hopes for this group is to more or less bring homeschoolers with the passion of dance together to share their gifts with one another and take it to the stage. This is a new program and so I am looking for moms who want to share in on this new adventure. If you are interested please call/ text me at: 602-387-0081 or via email at: email@example.com

3.5 stars, with a few adjustments. Prefer rich spicy gingerbread men, so used Penzeys spices -- which tend to be strong -- and doubled them; used a flax egg because that's what I had on hand; and added a little vanilla. Dough was soft, a little oily, but very easy to manipulate. They baked up wonderfully, with crunchy edges but soft, almost cakey middle; and a nice spice.flag if inappropriate
This is the best recipe ever for gingerbread cookies. I make them every holiday for Grandson and he loves them. They are so easy to work with, they're almost impossible wreck. I use another royal icing recipe but this cookie is the best! I don't make any changes, it's fine the way it is to me and my Grandson!flag if inappropriate
Every Christmas season we make gingerbread cookies with the grandchildren and I've tried a slightly different recipe each time. THIS IS THE ONE! With a few additions, THIS is our gingerbread recipe for all time! YES, double the spices, at least. AND, we turned these into "3 Ginger" gingerbread cookies with the addition of grated fresh ginger and some finely chopped crystalized ginger. Also added 1/2 tsp. of black pepper. We use parchment paper on the cookie sheets and used the left-over dough (after much use of cookie cutters) to make smaller, round "thumb-print" cookies. Final word: The kids LOVE to see how the molasses, etc. FOAMS after the baking soda is added. (OK, one more word... I love making this on the stove and kneading by hand.) This recipe makes me HAPPY!flag if inappropriate
Who says no to a enthusiastic 6 yr old who wants to make old fashioned gingerbread cookies ? It wasn't going to be me, despite my opinion that gingerbread was more decorative than delicious. Fast forward to the morning after and I am here to say this is these are fantastic!! I was skeptical about the dough as I was adding in the flour. I recommend sifting the flour, but maybe if I'd persevered, the lumps would have dissipated on their own. I think I used closer to 4 C flour in all. All told, this dough is a joy to work with and the cookies are delicious. Gingerbread redemption!!flag if inappropriate
I'm not sure why there are so many great reviews on here. I thought these were not sweet enough. The dough was easy to work with, though.flag if inappropriate
I never thought I would be able to make gingerbread cookies - but this recipe turned out to be GREAT! I double up on the spices as per other reviews - and it was a hit. Definitely use a big saucepan since the baking soda will make the mix rise like crazy. I was only able to get 3 dozen gingerbread men cookies. The dough is so easy to work with. Will definitely make more this weekend!flag if inappropriate
Followed the recipe as is, so easy and the dough was so easy to roll out and cut. I made little gingerbread men. My son came home from school kept sneaking a cookie every time he walked past them. Needless to say he loved them. We'll be lucky to have any to give away.flag if inappropriate
I made this recipe with the spices as written. Instead of flour I used Pamela's Gluten Free Baking Mix, I did put in half of the baking soda since some is included in the mix. The cookies turned out great and were easy to work with. The dough was such a great consistency that my 3 and 6 year old grandchildren could roll them out! My family members liked the level of spice as in the original recipe.flag if inappropriate
This is my favorite gingerbread recipe. The flavor is great from cooking the spices with the molasses, and it is a great dark brown color. Someone asked last year if this can be used for gingerbread houses. I have used it for years, for small houses (I dont' make the huge showpieces). Just make sure you have a good thickness (1/4"), and increase the baking time. Happy holiday baking!flag if inappropriate
Perfect, great, awesome. Never make another. Double the spices: ginger, cinnamon, allspice and cloves.flag if inappropriate

The weekend of the 20th + 21st November sees the the London 6 Pack take place. The event is hosted by the University of London Sailing Club based at BTYC and sailed on the Welsh Harp Reservoir in north London. The number of entries for the 2010 event is limited to 16 teams with racing sailed in the clubs 3 flights of 18 identical firefly dinghies. It is planned that the event will follow a round-robin and subsequent knockout format. Entries | Bath University Bristol University 1 Bristol University 2 Cambridge University 1 Cambridge University 2 Castaways Durham University Exeter University University of London 1 University of London 2 Royal Thames Yacht Club Blue Royal Thames Yacht Club Red Sevenoaks School Southampton University 1 Southampton University 2 Spinnaker Spankers Report | Team racing was the real winner this weekend as the Welsh Harp Reservoir served up perfect conditions for the 2010 London 6 Pack. In light of the forecast the bold move to complete a full round robin was taken on Saturday morning and 75 races were completed in a chilly 6-8 knot northerly breeze. Overnight leaders were Spinnaker Spankers followed by a number of teams only one win behind. Competitors were rewarded for the slightly earlier start time on Sunday morning with the Harp serving up another day of perfect conditions with a slightly breezier and unstable wind from the north. The remaining 30-odd races of the round robin were completed by mid morning and Spinnaker Spankers continued where they left off on Saturday, taking out the first stage of the competition. Teams were then split into gold, silver and bronze leagues and the next set of 30 races were completed by early afternoon, which provided an overall position for the lower placed teams and the seedings for the semi finals. The Bronze league was won by Bristol University, the gold league by Royal Thames Red on a points tiebreak and the silver league by the University of London who then beat Royal Thames Blue in the playoff for the final semi final spot. In the first semi final London faced up against Royal Thames Red who overcame them in two close races. In the first, Royal Thames held a 1, 4, 5 and despite the best efforts of London to convert eventually hit a play 1 to win. In the second race strong work from Andy Cornah in P1 eventually brought his teammates back into the race and Royal Thames went through with a 1, 2. The second semi final between Spinnaker Spankers and Exeter University was a much closer score line with Spinnaker eventually prevailing 2-1 to join Royal Thames in the final. First up though was the petit-final which had the added incentive of deciding the top university team but unfortunately it didn'ÃÂt live up to its billing with strong starting from Exeter and a lacklustre performance from London giving them the final podium spot. Racing in the final was a lot closer and after some competitive pre-start action in both races Spinnaker Spankers overcame Royal Thames Red 2-0 to add the 2010 London 6 Pack to their growing trophy cabinet. The event was one of the most successful in recent history with every team racing between 18 and 23 times over the weekend and the seemingly novel concept of completing the full format of competition at a university-run event should not go unnoticed. ULSC would like to thank Bruce Hebbert for coordinating the umpires, the umpires themselves [far to many to list I'm afraid!] Amanda Hebbert for her sterling work on the finish boat, Sevenoaks School, Imperial College, various Castaways, BTYC and all other ULSC members for their help in running the event. ULSC also hosts the London Duck team racing event, entry deadline is 11th February, teams interested should apply via the BUSA website. Results | 1. Spinnaker Spankers 2.

Those were the words spoken by school superintendent Dr. Philip Auger at TuesdayŌĆÖs school committee budget meeting in reference to the 2012/2013 budget.
SOUTH KINGSTOWN ŌĆō Last year the South Kingstown School Committee set out to find a way to save the school district money without jeopardizing the quality of education. One year later as it begins to develop the school budget for FY 2012-2013, the school committee is ready to start putting that plan in motion. That plan is Plan 29.
One night before the school committee met with the town council to discuss the $290,000 proposed capital budget for the school fund, the school committee discussed the factors facing them in the FY 2013 budget year.

Courtyard New York Manhattan/Midtown East Hotel Review: Despite the name, there is not a courtyard in sight. But that's okay. Situated on the east side of Midtown, this tall, black functionalist tower is nicely located for business and leisure travelers. Rockefeller Center, Penn Station, Radio City Music Hall and Times Square are just blocks away. The hotel offers plenty of services including a knowledgeable concierge desk, laundry facilities, valet service and a small fitness center. The newly-renovated rooms boast floor-to-ceiling views and high-speed Internet if you'd prefer to engage in virtual life over the real thing outside. Rooms are comfortably furnished and come with the usual amenities such as cable TV, hair dryers and safe deposit boxes. Some rooms have nice views of city landmarks. Other rooms offer glimpses of the surrounding skyscrapers.

JOHNS CREEK Emory Johns Creek hospital is now performing emergency angioplasty, officials said.Hospital CEO John Quinlivan said the hospital is proud to offer the state-of-the-art care for both those suffering from heart attack and the prevention of heart attack. Dr. Gregory Robertson, hospital Cardiac Cath Lab medical director, said angioplasty is a procedure that opens clogged arteries and restores blood flow using tiny, balloon-type devices. Heart attacks occur when a major artery supplying blood to the heart becomes blocked, officials said, usually from plaque build-up. Robertson has performed more than 8,000 interventional procedures in 24 years as a physician, officials said, and is considered a pioneer of emergency angioplasty. Officials said anyone experiencing symptoms of heart attack should call 911 immediately. Symptoms include: Chest discomfort, usually in the center of the chest, lasting more than a few minutes or going away and returning. It can feel like uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain. Pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw or stomach. Shortness of breath with or without chest discomfort. Breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea or lightheadedness.

To link to this article, copy this persistent link:
(Mar 14, 2013) In March 2013, Israel's Rabbinical Courts' Administration started posting photographs of and personal information about husbands who have disappeared without divorcing their wives. The public posting of this information on "runaway husbands," who are considered as having left their wives agunot (chained), is intended to shame them so that they either voluntarily subject themselves to the jurisdiction of the Rabbinical Courts or be forced to appear after having been identified. (Wanted [in Hebrew], Rabbinical Courts' Administration website (last visited Mar. 13, 2013); Lior Shadmi Shpitzer, The Shame Parade, The Rabbinical Courts' Website Publishes the Photos of the Refusers Who Disappeared [in Hebrew], TAKDIN LEGAL DATABASE (Mar. 11, 2013).)
Among details posted to identify the "runaway husbands" are country of birth, height, facial structure, hair color, ethnic origin, occupation, place of residence in Israel, accent, and body build. The Rabbinical Courts' Administration website calls on the public to contact the Administration and provide any relevant information regarding the whereabouts of the persons listed on the "wanted" list. (Wanted, supra & Shpitzer, supra.)
In accordance with the Rabbinical Court Jurisdiction (Marriage and Divorce) Law, 5713-1953, marriage and divorce of Jews in Israel who are Israeli residents and citizens are within the exclusive jurisdiction of the Rabbinical Courts. The Law further provides that marriage and divorce of Jews in Israel must be conducted under Jewish law. In accordance with Jewish law, a marriage may end only upon divorce based on both spouses' free, mutual consent, or upon death.
For a Jewish divorce to be recognized as valid, the husband must grant his wife a writ of divorce (a get) and she must willingly accept it. Rabbinical Courts do not have the authority to terminate a marriage. Instead, they may issue orders for the parties to try to resolve their differences or to effectuate a divorce. (Rabbinical Court Jurisdiction (Marriage and Divorce) Law, 5713-1953, 7 LAWS OF THE STATE OF ISRAEL 139 (5713-1952/53).)

Video: Big changes for GRPS going back-to-school
Video: GRPS - Interview with Principal Mark Frost
GRAND RAPIDS (WZZM) - Summer vacation is officially over and today marks first day of the 2013-2014 school year for most public West Michigan districts.
In Grand Rapids, West Michigan's largest district, students are having to adjust to more than getting up a little earlier.
The new Transformation plan, approved by the district late last year, brings major restructuring to the district. Among other things, 10 schools have closed, others consolidated, the district is stepping up efforts to reduce chronic absenteeism and has started phasing in a district-wide uniform policy. A full uniform costs on average about $20.
"If a child shows up and they are not in uniform, we are not going to send them home. We are going to provide them with a uniform for that day," said John Helmholdt, GRPS Spokesperson.
GRPS is also expanding the number of K through 8 and pre-K through 8 programs. But for all the changes made under the transformation plan, district officials say what they really need in order to be successful is for parents to step up.
"The message really is get involved and be part of the transformation. We are actually going to be launching the parent university. Which is a cutting-edge approach to parent engagement. It will have a course book where it is almost like signing up for classes. It is simple and easy," said Helmholdt.

She first met LeWitt when she worked closely with the artist to coordinate his 2000 retrospective for the Whitney Museum of American Art. In the fall of 2013, the Montclair Art Museum will feature her exhibition, "Eva Hesse and Sol LeWitt," the first show to look closely at the ways the artists' decade-long friendship had a crucial impact on their lives and artistic practices. Roberts previously worked at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, where she curated the 2010 exhibition, "Lee Bontecou: All Freedom in Every Sense." She holds a B.A. from Williams College and an M.A. in art history from the University of California at Santa Barbara.

The nominees for the Television Critics Association's 2014 TCA Awards were announced on Tuesday, with True Detective and Louie among the most honored shows from the past season. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the awards.
All four broadcast networks - ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox - earned multiple nominations, as did PBS and nine bacl networks. Netflix also earned nominations thanks to Orange is the New Black and House of Cards.
The TCA Awards also plan on honoring a long-running or influential show with the Heritage Award. The nominees for that award are David Lynch's Twin Peaks, J.J.Abrams' Lost, NBC's Saturday Night Live, Comedy Central's South Park and Star Trek.
Reality TV mogul Mark Burnett is up for the Career Achievement Award, as are producer James Burrows (Taxi, Cheers); Jay Leno; William Shatner (Star Trek); and Valerie Harper (Rhoda, Mary Tyler Moore Show).
Breaking Bad will get a chance to defend its Program of the Year titled against Game of Thrones, The Good Wife, Orange is the New Black and True Detective.

A Los Angeles Times review of more than 1,200 files from 1970 to 1991 found more than 125 cases across the U.S. in which men allegedly continued to molest Boy Scouts after the organization was first presented with detailed allegations of abusive behavior. Predators slipped back into the program by falsifying personal information or skirting the registration process. Others were able to jump from troop to troop thanks to clerical errors, computer glitches, or the Scouts' failure to check their own "blacklist." In some cases, officials failed to document reports of abuse in the first place, letting offenders stay in the organization until new allegations surfaced. In others, officials documented abuse but merely suspended the accused leader or allowed him to continue working with boys while on "probation." In at least 50 cases, the Boy Scouts expelled suspected abusers, only to discover later that they had reentered the program and were accused of molesting again.
One scoutmaster was expelled in 1970 for sexually assaulting a 14-year-old boy in Indiana. Even after being convicted of the crime, he went on to join two troops in Illinois between 1971 and 1988. He later admitted to molesting more than 100 boys, was convicted of the sexual assault of a Scout in 1989 and was sentenced to 100 years in prison, according to his file and court records. "Basically, there were no controls," said Bill Dworin, a retired Los Angeles police expert on child sexual abuse who reviewed hundreds of the files as a witness for an Oregon man abused by his troop leader in the 1980s. In 2010, the plaintiff, Kerry Lewis, won a nearly $20-million jury verdict against the Scouts.

Transition Activities
Free Spirit is a non-sectarian organisation that helps teachers gain a greater understanding of spirituality so that they can help awaken the spiritual impulse in young people. Free Spirit is guided by principles which encourage an open-minded and facilitative approach to learning and is part of the University for Spirit Forum Schools Project. The National Curriculum guidelines in England, Wales and Northern Ireland require that all State schools provide opportunities for pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development and that this should take place throughout the curriculum and through the contribution made by school ethos, effective relationships, collective worship, and other activities. The Free Spirit programmes, by deepening teachers' spiritual understanding, then help young people enhance the quality of their lives, enabling them to grow in ways that reflect the most deeply held democratic, ethical and spiritual values that underpin society. The aims of Free Spirit are highlighted by the upcoming first National Conference: Free Spirit – Educating Heart and Soul, which will take place in London on Saturday April 29th 2006. This conference will include keynote papers on spiritual development and workshops which will help teachers to: understand curriculum and local authority guidelines on spiritual development; acquire practical advice and tools to enhance harmony in the classroom and staff room; bring to life values that promote a loving and supporting school environment; become equipped to help children add a 'spiritual dimension' to their school lives bringing improved relationships and a greater awareness and respect for others and for the world; learn to cope with the strains and stresses of teaching by accessing their spiritual nature; understand more about the differences between 'spiritual' and 'religious' teaching and explore the common 'spiritual' links between religions and faiths; encourage more openness and discussion about spiritual issues; to find new ways of expressing their own spiritual impulse.

One of the things that I truly love about my job is that it puts me in touch with head doctors all over the world, and I get to speak to them without having to pay a lot of money! I'm always flattered when a psychologist or psychiatrist links to my blog or incorporates one of my creative (and sometimes unscientific) technique into their repertoire with clients or discusses it in a blog post. Dr. Elvira Aletta publishes a very cool site called "Explore What's Next," where she writes a blog, includes helpful stuff for folks like us, and some information about herself and her journey to the land of peace.

Based on what you describe ...mb to the images this is taking you down a path you do not want to go. It will certainly lead to your crossing a boundary and actually doing it with someone.View Thread
By 10 ish I ran in male female porn and was overwhelmed imaging what my body would look like as a man someday. A couple of things came about with neighbor boys, but I knew something more was going on with me than them. This continued as an anonymous thing.... no one could know. Matter of fact the moment it was over I denied it even happened.
I married at 25 not having done anything for a year. I thought it was over. Being an emotional mess on the inside setteling into our marriage was more than I was ready for and I returned to the anonymous thing. I could not stop.
I reached out for help and tried several until about 14 years ago when I found a 12 step program called Sexaholics Anonymous a world wide group. There I learned I was a sex addict just like all the others at those meeting. I just happened to act out same sex. I was not gay. I accept I will always be drawn to this. I probably would not have survived my childhood without it, but it was ruining my life. It was not even fun it was just what I had to do to end an escape from life cycle.
I sought a therapist out a few years ago. Actually, he was a very liberal guy and our relationship began with his suggestion that I was bi and just needed to better manage my acting out. I had to teach him NO NO I am not bi. I am a addicted to this monkey on my back. Three years later when he did not feel he could help me further he agreed I was an addict.
If you want to communicate more about my experience send me a direct communication. email@example.com Thread
I have come to where the stand up deal is so unsatisfying . I am kinda sorta looking for a "buddy" amoung all the guys I know to expand our friendship. Not like the only thing we do together. Not sure how to bring it up. Maybe one of my friends who comments about my body where rather than saying THANKS say, "I think your body is hot also" and let it hang out there or if the situation is right take my shirt off.View Thread
I have read a bunch about it on longivity sites and there is no reason not to take it daily for rest of my life. This string also winds back the clock to reduce natural abdominal fat build up. Which it has. Since for it to be effective it is best to not have eaten for three hours prior to injections I stopped eating 3 hours before sleep so that when out body goes into its natureal sleep time repair with no food and an empty stomach it when it uses that stored abdominal fat. Plus it increases the quality of deeper sleep.
Just wanted you to know I am not doing the tessView Thread
This string I enjoyed reading and envy. I have had man anonymous sexual situations with other guys. Most times we did not even know each other name. One time deals. The excitement I can identify with.
I have thought about a FWB deal but a relationship just for sex does not interest me. It would feel awkward. But a real friend/buddy that we already did non sex things together that evolved to this just happening sounds fun. The hot tub setting or massage trade. Situations where something like this might come up rare.View Thread
I did some research (a lot) and concluded that I felt okay with injection amino acid peptieds HGH Frag 176 -191 and CJC 1295 w Dac starting about 3 mo ago. Together with a new diet and better eating times.
My abdominal area fat is slipping away slowly and I am recovered enough from my toes surgery to start back at the gym.
Yesterday, I went to and appointment at a new medical practice for men only called Innovative Mens Health here in Seattle. Anyway, this naturapathic doctor wants me to start a $2500 a year contract injecting 200 mg testosterone with a pill to nix the estrogen reaction. that stuff scares me, but he sez it would boost my building the muscle. However, I assume the muscle would go away if I stopped the injections.

Thing about being in my summer years hair grows every place I don't want it,,,ears, chest pubes nose. Then I started notice shirtless guys my age with long puff on their chest so I had regular hair trimmer with the spacer and it is quick to shorten that stuff. Then I opted to attach the pubes with my safety razor in the shower leaving the crown stuff but shortened. I never had hair on my balls until my 40's and some guys never get it. Clean looks better and I doubt anyone realizes at the gym that I do this.View Thread
"Good things" I just finished a book Art of Happiness and interview with the Dali Lama. He suggested making a list of all the things that make you happy. I did it in my journal. One of the things I put down was "I like to dress up in a tux and take my wife to social gatherings"
"Parent issues" Certainly they did and I have won in every mental court ruling/ I am not at forgiveness (That is for God to give" Neither of them ever asked for it. But I have arrived at acceptance and that is good enough for now.
"Future years" Fortunately I am immature emotionally. From the time any addictive behavior becomes our primary coping tool we stop developing healthy tools. I am willing to set aside my failed ao to expand and improve my human experience.
"Alchol" Sure I have abused it as an escape in the past. Today my limit is 2 glasses of wine except if we are at a Saturday night dinner party and 3. Actually, with the recommended high protein veggi diet suggested with hgh Frag injections I am doing I have switched to diet tonic and bitters. Since 2/10 I have lost 4.5 pounds of abdominal fat. Soon my ab crunches will be visible. I should be happy I am an ectomorph when I switch to a high carb diet and hit the gym my efforts will will show.
"Sex" That got so cross wired for me. It never was even sex...just two strangers guys having an orgasm followed by shame. Not joy, not intimacy. Because I never experienced intimacy growing up I know I do not know what it looks like today. I have done a lot of reading on the topic and my wife and I are are moving in that direction.. over coming my fear. She is a great teacher. Did I tell you I am secretary for a 12 step mens sexual addiction group? But my fear of rejection (real or imagined) over their response to my form of same sex ao keeps me from sharing at meetings full of men who all carry shame about their ao behaviors. I want to be a better man. I want make healthy my prime motivating factor.
Say do you ever talk on telephone 206-720-1055. I would like to know you better. I like your thinking Oh.. is there any way on this site to send a personal communication? One on One?.View Thread

A film entitled "The Great Beauty" should be one, and this one certainly is. It is also dark, both in terms of light and insight. Its beauty is not sweeping vistas or aerial shots of quilt-like fields or close-ups on tiaras in vitrines; the film's beauty is a metaphor.
Italian director Paolo Sorrentino has a unique style and attitude on display in "This Must Be the Place," starring Sean Penn as depressed rock and roll legend Cheyenne. Quirky and clever, Cheyenne holds forth on the meaning of life even as he seems on the verge of giving up on it.

REDWOOD Derek J. Wagoner, 30, of 43785 First St., was arrested by state police Tuesday on a charge of third-degree burglary in connection with a garage intrusion in December.
He was being held Wednesday in the Metro-Jefferson Public Safety Building, Watertown, with bail set at $2,500 by Alexandria Town Justice Lewis H. Perry Jr.
Mr. Wagoner is accused of stealing a stereo unit from a garage in Redwood between Dec. 10 and 12, according to police.
He also has prosecution pending on a second-degree burglary count lodged in September involving a $1,000 cash theft from a house in Fishers Landing.
Two other people were charged previously with fifth-degree criminal possession of stolen property in connection with the garage burglary investigation. They are Joy M. Owens, 28, and Jason A. Harvey, 28, both of 916 Strawberry Lane, Clayton.

Paul McCartney gave an unannounced Q&A session and album release party for his New album yesterday (October 9th) in New York City, according to USA Today.
The former Beatle appeared during a special "master class" at Queen's Frank Sinatra School of the Arts.
McCartney gave several shout-outs to his wife Nancy Shevell, who was with him celebrating their second wedding anniversary — and next Tuesday's album release (October 15th) — while answering some of the kids' questions and playing a 13-song set.
"Macca" was asked about the greatest lesson he learned over the course of career, and answered, "When I first started out, I was terrified of doing anything wrong on stage. People don't mind. In fact, people kind of like it. It doesn't matter as much as you think it does. You can relax a bit more."
On where he gets his inspiration: "You get it from a lot of things. I often use the past, things that have happened to me in the past. If it's a love song, that would be my loved ones."

Will 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' Edit Scenes of Abuse in Armstrong Marriage?
Reacting to today's very sad news that Russell Armstrong committed suicide last night, after the dissolution of their marriage and his abusive actions were so publicly reported, Bravo removed their drama-filled Season 2 online promo.
It was the right choice. No matter what happened between the two of them, the last thing anyone wants rehashed in a time of grief is the emotional inciting incident.
But what about the actual show? How much -- if at all -- will Bravo edit the episodes to exclude the late Russell Armstrong and his admitted spousal abuse? And how much should they edit?
At NBC Universal's TCA party a couple of weeks ago, Taylor was there with her self-proclaimed "gay husband," a male best friend of hers for years who she said was "her rock" during the tough times she's been going through. Russell was not in attendance.
When I pressed her for how much of the abuse would be shown in Season 2, she coyly replied, "Well you'll have to watch and see ... but it's really not easy to watch."
The question is, is it right to show a now-deceased man, who was obviously battling some demons, while he was at his lowest point? Or should Bravo memorialize Russell, go back to the editing room and gloss over the specifics of their marital problems?
Taylor filed for divorce from Russell, 47, in July after claiming he physically abused her. The two had a 5-year-old daughter together named Kennedy.
"I felt like I was dying inside," Taylor told People about her marriage. "Now, there's some sense of peace."
"Did I push her? Yes, maybe things happened in the heat of the moment, but it was during a time in our lives that was not characteristic of who we were," Russell told People in July. "This show has literally pushed us to the limit."
No one from Bravo returned our request for a comment, but we'll update this post if we hear any more. For now, what do you think is the right thing for the show to do?
