We all appreciate a good deal and some of us will go to the end of the earth trying to find that once in a lifetime purchase. Now it is a totally different topic wondering how much time spent is to much time and what your time is actually worth. However, when making any big purchase you need to steer far away from this instinctual behavior. It may be the easiest way to differentiate different quotes but trust me here it is not a good way to decide who you are going to use to complete the project. The best way to explain this is with a simple analogy. Most of us love a good meal and we will use surf and turf here since it is an American favorite. You cant make up where to have your birthday dinner party and are shopping around at several different restaurants to pick the best one. Low and behold you find a place where you can buy your favorite meal for only $6.99. What a deal! Would you feel comfortable having your family and friends dine at a place like this when everyone else was priced at $20+ per plate?
Use the same logic outlined above when purchasing a new roof or similar project. When buying a new house or used card we have all been conditioned to follow this train of thought, it is time to apply it to the construction industry as well. If an estimate comes in way lower then the rest it is usually for one of a several reasons. First, they may be using inferior materials or cutting corners wherever possible. If you plan on keeping your property for any length of time the short term savings may not be worth the long term potential for major issues. Something as common as a little roof leak can cause wood rotting, structural issues, and mold growth all of which can be huge expenses to fix. Secondly, you may be dealing with amateurs that either don’t have much experience bidding jobs or are so desperate for work they will do anything. In this instance you are likely to be used for a training ground so that these newbies can hone their craft and pray for a good outcome. That or they may need to use the money from your down payment to purchase materials for another project they are building. It is typically a bad sign when they ask for a large amount of money up front and wont tell you when they will be able to start the work. Lastly, it is a common trick of the trade to throw out a low ball estimate to win the job and then try to up charge once firmly into the demolition. Roofing contractors often figure it is a lot easier to negotiate for more money from the customers when their roof is laying in the front yard.
You want to make sure to focus on important aspects that often get overlooked. One of such things are company reviews. Do they have a good rating at the BBB? Are they listed on a site such as Angie’s List and do people have good things to say about them? Can they provide any personal references of local customers that are satisfied with the work completed? Some times it makes sense to pay a little bit more for work that you know is going to be done quickly and professionally. Make sure that the person you are going to hire is fully licensed and insured. Check the states website, such as this one for the state of Michigan, to make sure they do not have any outstanding violations. Most cities now require the contractor to provide all of this information before pulling a permit to protect the consumer so absolutely never agree to do this yourself for anyone. If they cant pull a permit themselves there is a reason for it and it isn’t good! Many contractors can no longer afford insurance as it is quite expensive and instead carry fake policies. Before signing a contract ask for a copy of their insurance policy and call the provider yourself to ensure it isn’t fraudulent. All it takes is one accident to occur on your property for you to lose everything to some low life that lied to you. It is not worth the risk and many people out there are just waiting to prey on unsuspecting victims in this manner.
How much is to much for a down payment?
I cant say that you should never give a contractor any money up front but I can say that it is the best way to protect yourself. Smaller companies or independent contractors wont strip a shingle off your roof without 50% or more down. Bigger companies are capable of paying for their own materials upfront and want to make sure you are completely satisfied before getting paid. This alone is worth a substantial amount as it gives you peace of mind that the work will be done in a timely fashion and up to your personal standards. It allows for you to keep your money in investments or savings accounts or stashed under the bed. Either way it is a much better feeling to have a little control of the project. There is nothing worse then handing several thousands dollars over to a stranger and then to have to constantly call them trying to figure out where they are and when they are going to start working.
Again, this is not the deciding factor here but should be weighted heavily. Financing can be great for a number of reasons but that all depends on personal circumstances. When financing a new roof in Michigan for instance the rates are so competitive that it makes the most sense to take advantage of these programs while they are available. Michigan roofing loans are also available unsecured which means that the lender does not even place a lien on your property. This is a huge benefit that is even more important than interest rate because god forbid you have a lien placed it can be very difficult to get it removed if there are any disputes. More importantly, lenders are very careful which contractors they conduct business with. They do a thorough background check and even perform a financial audit in order to make sure everything is above board. That means you can typically feel confident in the company you have hire if they are able to provide you with a loan for that home improvement project.
Have you ever taken out a loan for something like a new roof?

MAIT has several models specifically designed and dedicated for limited access drilling. Our Mini Series include the world famous BABY DRILL and MIDI DRILL, mounted on Komatsu PC 80.
The BABY DRILL is radio-remote controled, which allows it to easily get into those tight places that other rigs can't get into, such as elevator shafts or inside and underneath bulildings. This rig can be operated from a distance, allowing the machine to go places where a larger size drilling rig would be potentially hazardous for overturning such as on cliffs.
The BABY DRILL is mounted on expandable crawlers, and can be tracked through a 3.3 ft wide door. This machine may be small, but it can do alot of work, up to 24 in diameter and 49 ft of depth. The BABY DRILL has a telescopic mast which can fit under various heights with different kelly bar lengths.
The MIDI DRILL on the other hand, is a little bigger and more powerful than the BABY DRILL. It is mounted on Komatsu PC 80, and is the perfect rig to transport on your own trailer and be pulled by your own truck. There is no need to remove the kelly bar for transport, so you save on loading and set-up time.
The ECOLINE EC 35 is a specially designed drilling rig for limited access and low headroom jobsites. Its moderate size allows easy transportation as the kelly bar does not have to be removed for transport.

The Rosenberg Library Museum proudly presented an eclectic assortment of police relics from the late 19th to the early 20th century as the September Treasure of the Month. Like much of America’s common-law tradition, the origins of modern policing trace directly to its English heritage. Ideas concerning community policing, crime prevention, the posse, constables, and sheriffs developed from English law enforcement. In larger cities and towns, constables and the night watch conducted a wide variety of tasks. The night watch reported fires, raised the hue and cry, maintained street lamps, arrested or detained suspicious persons, investigated crimes and walked the rounds. Though some cities suffered from endemic corruption, most officers were even-tempered, reserved, polite, doled out appropriate discipline when necessary, and were not allowed to carry guns.
This month’s treasures included a bull’s-eye police lantern, a set of Bean Patrolmen handcuffs, a set of Tower double locking handcuffs, a rosewood nightstick, and a whistle which belonged to Galveston Police Officer, John Bowe. These artifacts were donated to the Library from the estate of William M. Morgan, Mrs. L. C. Mire, and Mrs. Billie McCulley.
Nineteenth century police officers walked the beat in all types of weather for two to six hours during 12-hour shifts, and spent the remaining time at the station house on reserve. While patrolling officers maintained order and made arrests, they often had to act alone using their intuition, as communications technology was limited. Call boxes on the beat were not introduced until the late 19th century, and the radio and motorized communications did not appear until the mid 1900s. For these reasons, officers carried handcuffs, truncheons, whistles, and notebooks with them.
Imagine patrolling Galveston’s streets at night without the glow of the streetlamps above. Before battery powered flashlights, officers carried “bullseye” or “dark” lanterns which used either sperm whale oil or, later on, kerosene to light the way. The front of the lantern had a distinct convex glass lens which resembled an eye and a metal slide which could block light so that officers could shroud themselves in darkness. Most lanterns were made of japanned tinned steel and had vents on the top to allow smoke to escape and protected the flame from wind. “Japanning” is the term used to describe the process of protecting the lantern from the elements. The tinned steel would be brushed with several coats of dark shellac before the lantern was baked in an oven. This process left police lanterns nearly black in color and resistant to rust and heat.
The bullseye lantern on display was designed by Harry F. Hughes of Brooklyn, New York between the 1870s and 1890s. The lantern is 8″ high, 4″ wide at the base and has a 3″ bullseye lens. There are wire handles at the rear, and on the side is a brass maker’s plate “Hughes Patent – H. Loveridge & Co”. It also has a rear belt clip. This particular lantern does not include a sheet metal curtain which could block out light. Though designed by Hughes, it was manufactured by Henry Loveridge and Co. (1867 – 1927) in Wolverhampton, England. With a similar lantern design, Hughes earned the last known patent issued for police lanterns in 1900. Police lanterns quickly became obsolete with the development of safer and easier to use battery powered flashlights.
Also on display is a set of Bean Patrolman police handcuffs. The Bean handcuff company, founded by E. D. Bean, was a major force in the industry from the late nineteenth through the early twentieth century. The Patrolman model was patented November 28, 1882 and featured a unique release button that allowed a police officer to carry the cuffs closed but unlocked.
The cuffs, while built using the Bean patent, were actually manufactured by the armament firm Iver Johnson. On some earlier models only the original Bean patent date appears (on the side of the bow near the lock case) even though they are manufactured in accordance with the Iver Johnson patent. The set on display includes this particular patent date.
The remaining whistle, nightstick, and handcuffs on display once belonged to Officer John F. Bowe (1866 – 1934). Born in Brooklyn, New York in 1866, Bowe moved to Galveston when he was fourteen years old. He held several jobs including Detective at the Buccaneer Hotel, day driver of the patrol wagon, jailer at the county jail, City Detective, and later served as Chief of Detectives. Officer Bowe was also a volunteer fire fighter and a member of Live Oak Camp N. 201 for the Woodmen of the World Police and Firemen’s Insurance Association. While serving his community, Bowe was involved in many dangerous situations that made for compelling news stories including brawls with drunken sailors, taunting notes left by burglars, and the arrest of unruly suffragists.
His service to the community is all the more impressive when one considers his personal loss during the 1900 Storm. Newspaper reports explain that he lost his wife and children during the disaster, but was only on “a month’s leave in recognition of meritorious service” before he returned to duty to help rebuild the city. He later remarried and lived on the island until his death in June 1934.
The whistle included with these articles was used to direct traffic, signal other officers when he needed assistance, and attract the attention of the public. It is an escargot style with a cork ‘pea,’ and probably had a chain that attached it to the officer’s belt. The rosewood nightstick has a decoratively turned handle and an ornate knob at the end and was likely worn with his full dress uniform for special occasions and parades. This type of night stick was first made in 1876, and production continued through the 1960s. Originally it would have had a decorative chord that could be tied in the grooves at the knob and again at the base of the handle.
Bowe’s last article on display is a pair of Tower Double Locking handcuffs. They were made by Tower, a company that dates back to the 1860s and operated until the 1940s. The Double Lock model prevented prisoners from shimming out of their handcuffs with an additional lock setting that froze the catch in place. This feature, coupled with top-notch manufacturing, prompted some experts to call the Tower Double Lock the finest handcuffs ever made in America.

The Rosenberg Library Museum proudly presented an eclectic assortment of police relics from the late 19th to the early 20th century as the September Treasure of the Month . Like much of America ’s common - law tradition , the origins of modern policing trace directly to its English heritage . Ideas concerning community policing , crime prevention , the posse , constables , and sheriffs developed from English law enforcement . In larger cities and towns , constables and the night watch conducted a wide variety of tasks . The night watch reported fires , raised the hue and cry , maintained street lamps , arrested or detained suspicious persons , investigated crimes and walked the rounds . Though some cities suffered from endemic corruption , most officers were even - tempered , reserved , polite , doled out appropriate discipline when necessary , and were not allowed to carry guns .
 This month ’s treasures included a bull’s - eye police lantern , a set of Bean Patrolmen handcuffs , a set of Tower double locking handcuffs , a rosewood nightstick , and a whistle which belonged to Galveston Police Officer , John Bowe . These artifacts were donated to the Library from the estate of William M. Morgan , Mrs. L. C. Mire , and Mrs. Billie McCulley .
 Nineteenth century police officers walked the beat in all types of weather for two to six hours during 12 - hour shifts , and spent the remaining time at the station house on reserve . While patrolling officers maintained order and made arrests , they often had to act alone using their intuition , as communications technology was limited . Call boxes on the beat were not introduced until the late 19th century , and the radio and motorized communications did not appear until the mid 1900s . For these reasons , officers carried handcuffs , truncheons , whistles , and notebooks with them .
 Imagine patrolling Galveston ’s streets at night without the glow of the streetlamps above . Before battery powered flashlights , officers carried “ bullseye ” or “ dark ” lanterns which used either sperm whale oil or , later on , kerosene to light the way . The front of the lantern had a distinct convex glass lens which resembled an eye and a metal slide which could block light so that officers could shroud themselves in darkness . Most lanterns were made of japanned tinned steel and had vents on the top to allow smoke to escape and protected the flame from wind . “ Japanning ” is the term used to describe the process of protecting the lantern from the elements . The tinned steel would be brushed with several coats of dark shellac before the lantern was baked in an oven . This process left police lanterns nearly black in color and resistant to rust and heat .
 The bullseye lantern on display was designed by Harry F. Hughes of Brooklyn , New York between the 1870s and 1890s . The lantern is 8″ high , 4″ wide at the base and has a 3″ bullseye lens . There are wire handles at the rear , and on the side is a brass maker ’s plate “ Hughes Patent – H. Loveridge & Co ” . It also has a rear belt clip . This particular lantern does not include a sheet metal curtain which could block out light . Though designed by Hughes , it was manufactured by Henry Loveridge and Co. ( 1867 – 1927 ) in Wolverhampton , England . With a similar lantern design , Hughes earned the last known patent issued for police lanterns in 1900 . Police lanterns quickly became obsolete with the development of safer and easier to use battery powered flashlights .
 Also on display is a set of Bean Patrolman police handcuffs . The Bean handcuff company , founded by E. D. Bean , was a major force in the industry from the late nineteenth through the early twentieth century . The Patrolman model was patented November 28 , 1882 and featured a unique release button that allowed a police officer to carry the cuffs closed but unlocked .
 The cuffs , while built using the Bean patent , were actually manufactured by the armament firm Iver Johnson . On some earlier models only the original Bean patent date appears ( on the side of the bow near the lock case ) even though they are manufactured in accordance with the Iver Johnson patent . The set on display includes this particular patent date .
 The remaining whistle , nightstick , and handcuffs on display once belonged to Officer John F. Bowe ( 1866 – 1934 ) . Born in Brooklyn , New York in 1866 , Bowe moved to Galveston when he was fourteen years old . He held several jobs including Detective at the Buccaneer Hotel , day driver of the patrol wagon , jailer at the county jail , City Detective , and later served as Chief of Detectives . Officer Bowe was also a volunteer fire fighter and a member of Live Oak Camp N. 201 for the Woodmen of the World Police and Firemen ’s Insurance Association . While serving his community , Bowe was involved in many dangerous situations that made for compelling news stories including brawls with drunken sailors , taunting notes left by burglars , and the arrest of unruly suffragists .
 His service to the community is all the more impressive when one considers his personal loss during the 1900 Storm . Newspaper reports explain that he lost his wife and children during the disaster , but was only on “ a month ’s leave in recognition of meritorious service ” before he returned to duty to help rebuild the city . He later remarried and lived on the island until his death in June 1934 .
 The whistle included with these articles was used to direct traffic , signal other officers when he needed assistance , and attract the attention of the public . It is an escargot style with a cork ‘ pea , ’ and probably had a chain that attached it to the officer ’s belt . The rosewood nightstick has a decoratively turned handle and an ornate knob at the end and was likely worn with his full dress uniform for special occasions and parades . This type of night stick was first made in 1876 , and production continued through the 1960s . Originally it would have had a decorative chord that could be tied in the grooves at the knob and again at the base of the handle .
 Bowe ’s last article on display is a pair of Tower Double Locking handcuffs . They were made by Tower , a company that dates back to the 1860s and operated until the 1940s .

A labeling system is an incredibly advantageous device for making everything in a move more organized and identifiable.
Moving labels can make a real difference in one’s moving experience so that a mover can feel more relaxed and inspired throughout. Moving labels can function as a kind of adhesive concept map, serving the movers thinking visually; using description and color for both organizational and creative purposes.
Removable labels, for example, allow movers to stick identification onto surfaces within a hypothetical construct and completely without permanence so that a plan of transport is mapped and developed with visual aid; this action helps to determine which items will go in which box and also where certain items and furniture will ultimately be placed.
As the packing ensues, the mover’s ideas pertaining to the placement and final destination of all of his or her belongings, as well as their intended arrangement in the new dwelling, will begin to emerge. Moving labels communicate a mover’s - moving policies, indicating their motivations to others, which will evolve and change in a process similar to research.
This mapping is especially important in the early stages of moving so that operations for the move can begin being accomplished in a step-by-step process without automatically assuming their permanence.
This research then will help in determining finally where everything in the household functionally belongs. Labeling, in general, is especially helpful when working with professional movers or other helpers, avoiding the need to transfer or reorganize boxes and furniture oneself when there is no longer anyone around to lend a hand. Use moving labels to communicate directives to professional movers and other helpers who can reduce the workload on a mover, by placing boxes in the rooms they belong in, and while also helping to ensure the proper transportation and handling of the parcels. Moving labels can be purchased to identify the contents of every box for each room, marking them as GLASS or DELICATE, and it is advisable to label boxes headed for storage. These labels often come in a kit and contain printed labels for perhaps 10 different rooms, including several copies of each label, such as OFFICE, KITCHEN, FRAGILE, and OPEN FIRST.
3. Where Can You Purchase Such Labels?
They are often a spectrum of brightly colored hues for each room/item. Choose a layout that best serves one’s own sense of organization and thought process, since labels come in all shapes and sizes. Some of them are a bit longer and include space to write notes, on the blank or lined adhesive. Conveniently purchase moving labels online and download them from the internet. There are moving label software kits for the printer that include both printed and blank labels. These types of labels can be purchased with removable adhesive and have the ability to be transferred from the walls, doors, and cabinets.
4. What Labels Work Best?
Using large, boldly printed labels will make instructions more apparent to others so that large, bold, markers will not be necessary to make additional notes, though keeping some of these large markers might come in handy for marking last minute labels on a box. Purchase plenty of labels in the case that they run out, the adhesive fails, or for changing one’s mind about what was planned.

If he truly cared for these people he would have taken the time to get the facts straight. Remember he’s a showman. The bigger the better.
In expressing his condolences to those impacted by the Sri Lanka blasts, President Donald Trump initially claimed incorrectly that millions had died in the South Asia country on Easter Sunday.
At least 138 people were killed in what appears to be coordinated attacks as the death toll is expected to increase, according to multiple media reports. Hundreds were wounded in a series of explosions that targeted churches and hotels frequented by tourists around the Sri Lankan capital of Colombo, the Associated Press and CNN report.
Trump offered support for Sri Lanka in the early morning tweet. “Heartfelt condolences from the people of the United States to the people of Sri Lanka on the horrible terrorist attacks on churches and hotels that have killed at least 138 million people and badly injured 600 more. We stand ready to help,” the president said.
The president deleted the original tweet and added a corrected version with the nearly 140 people dead figure in the blasts.
Trump’s tweets come hours after Sri Lanka’s Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe issued his own statement on Twitter cautioning against spreading unverified reports.
These 10 diabetes superfoods can help you control your blood glucose levels, lose weight or maintain a healthy weight and prevent heart disease. That’s great news for people with diabetes! Learn more about these superfoods and how to incorporate them into your daily nutrition plan.
Blueberries contain both insoluble fibre (which flushes fat out of your system) and soluble fibre (which slows down the emptying of your stomach, and improves blood sugar control). Eat a handful of fresh berries with a meal, or sprinkle them on yogurt or oatmeal.
2. NutsAlmonds, cashews and walnuts contain heart-healthy omega 3 fats, and their fibre content also helps you feel full. One ounce of these nuts makes a great between-meal snack; you can also add a handful of nuts to a salad or sprinkle them over yogurt. Learn more about the health benefits of nuts from our dietitian here.
3. BeansAll beans – whether you prefer kidney, pinto, navy, cannellini or black beans – are packed with protein and cholesterol-lowering fibre. In fact, just ½ a cup of beans provides you with ⅓ of your daily fibre requirement. They’re also good sources of magnesium and potassium. Add beans to soups and stews, or sprinkle them on top of a salad.
Fish is one of the best meal-planning options you can go for. It’s high in omega 3 fats and rich in protein. A fish-rich diet can also reduce your risk of stroke. Excellent fish choices include salmon, trout, herring, albacore tuna, mackerel, halibut and sardines. Broil, bake or grill fish, instead of deep frying, to ensure you get the maximum health benefits. Learn more about why fish should be on your menu.
Spinach, collards, kale and arugula are incredibly low in calories and carbohydrate, so it’s impossible to eat too much! Many dark greens also contain a compound called sulforaphane, which helps to improve blood sugar control and prevent heart disease. Enjoy a large salad (with a low-fat dressing) for lunch, or add greens to soups and stews.
When selecting grains, it’s the germ and bran of the whole grain you’re after, as they contain all the nutrients that a grain product has to offer. Whole grains are known to reduce the risk of heart disease by reducing blood pressure and cholesterol levels. They’re also digested slowly, so they’ll help you feel full longer. Start your day with a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast, cook brown or wild rice instead of white rice, and choose whole grain breads for sandwiches to incorporate whole grains into your everyday diet.
It’s well known that yogurt is an excellent source of calcium, helping to build strong bones and teeth. It’s also an excellent source of vitamin D and protein. However, Greek yogurt is especially high in protein, and generally contains twice as much as regular yogurt (Greek yogurt contains 8 grams of protein in a 100-gram serving, vs. 4 grams for regular yogurt). Eat a cup of yogurt for breakfast, and use Greek yogurt to make delicious and creamy sauces and salad dressings. Learn more about the health benefits of yogurt here.
A diet that’s rich in olive oil (for example, the Mediterranean diet) is not only good for people with diabetes, it can also help to prevent or delay the onset of the disease. That’s because extra virgin olive oil reduces blood sugar levels more than other kinds of fats, and is also rich in antioxidant nutrients that protect cells from damage and prevents the development of heart disease. Use olive oil in salad dressings, or in marinades or sauces for meat, fish, poultry and vegetables.
Cinnamon and turmeric have both been shown to reduce blood sugar levels. People who consume one or more grams of cinnamon every day also have reduced low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. The active ingredient in turmeric is called curcumin, a compound that helps to lower cholesterol levels and other symptoms linked to obesity. Use these delicious spices when making soups, stews and curries.
This starchy vegetable is chock full of vitamin A and fibre. Sweet potatoes are also known to lower blood glucose levels. Try them in place of regular potatoes for a lower glycemic index alternative. Roasting or baking sweet potatoes (with a drizzle of olive oil) is a delicious way to enjoy their health benefits.

State regulators have reached a deal with Charter Communications after a year-long spat.
Charter Communications will begin offering high-speed internet to more rural customers following a preliminary deal announced Friday between the company and New York State regulators. The deal, if granted final approval by the state Public Service Commission, would settle allegations that Charter — which does business under the brand name Spectrum — has not adequately expanded its rural broadband network.
But how does this affect current Spectrum subscribers? And who will get these new connections? Below, find answers to the most pressing questions about Friday’s agreement.
What did Spectrum promise under the preliminary deal?
Under the terms of this new deal, Spectrum needs to do two things: expand its high-speed broadband service to an additional 80,173 upstate homes and businesses by Sept. 30, 2021, and pay $12 million to help extend broadband to underserved areas.
Spectrum had previously agreed to extend service to 145,000 new addresses by May 2018 as a condition of its merger with Time Warner Cable. Spectrum has laid almost 65,000 new connections thus far, the deal says, leaving 80,000 for future installation.
Jack Quinn, the former congressman-turned-college president, might be the most well-known person finding relief for his Parkinson’s symptoms through working out at Parkinson’s Boxing in Kenmore, but he’s not the only one.
Jennifer Taggart stood in the center of a ring, pointing to a mat painted with grids, diamonds and dots, and instructed her boxer to position his feet parallel to a line. She demonstrated a pair of quick jabs, narrated them with a “Pop! Pop!” and looked her trainee in the eye.
He’s a tall, silvery haired man dressed in black UnderArmour shorts, his hands cocooned in leather boxing gloves.
This is not his usual uniform.
This is Jack Quinn, the former Republican congressman-turned-college president, a man who spent a career in suits and ties and being the boss. But he’s not in command anymore.
A 52-year-old retired state corrections officer says he was roughed up and tackled without warning or good reason by Amherst police as he waited at a medical office back in January.
A retired state corrections officer says he was badly hurt when police grabbed him without warning and threw him to the ground as he waited at an Amherst radiology practice in January.
Amherst police say they were answering a complaint that a man was waving around a handgun in the lobby at Great Lakes Medical Imaging on Park Club Lane.
John P. Nowak Jr., of the Town of Tonawanda, insists he was doing no such thing and, further, he is licensed to carry a pistol.
Nowak, 52, said he suffered a bruised kidney and a meniscus tear in his left knee and developed inflammation in his right elbow. He has filed a notice of claim, the required precursor to a lawsuit, against the Town of Amherst and its Police Department.

President Trump tweeted this morning, his true feelings about the Muller Report. Today he called it the “Crazy Muller Report” and then added the entire Muller report was filled with lies. Trump made it perfectly clear the “Crazy Muller Report” was total “BULSH-T”. I understood this to mean Trump was ready to tell the truth.
Again, President Trump tweeted this morning that the Crazy Muller report is total “BULL SHI”. This statement opened a door I don’t think he meant to.
Logic then tells me everything in the Crazy Muller Report is true because Trump said it’s total lies. So Trump did all things the report said he didn’t. Now it makes sense. Trump has lost the privilege of runnig the greatest country on earth.

If you’re over 30, chances are you remember exactly where you were when you heard about the shooting at Columbine High School. And if you’re under 30, chances are you’ve participated in a school lockdown drill.
20 years ago today, two teenage gunmen killed 12 students and a teacher and wounded more than 20 others, leaving a community devastated and a nation in mourning. Amidst heartbreak and grief, the Columbine tragedy spurred a movement to end gun violence. Today, we carry on this legacy, fighting for safer schools for our children and safer communities for all of us.
Comment from the amhersttimes.com: Our prayers go up for the people who were killed that day. Our loving concern continues for all of the loved ones these victims left behind.

Use olive oil in salad dressings , or in marinades or sauces for meat , fish , poultry and vegetables .
 Cinnamon and turmeric have both been shown to reduce blood sugar levels . People who consume one or more grams of cinnamon every day also have reduced low - density lipoprotein cholesterol levels . The active ingredient in turmeric is called curcumin , a compound that helps to lower cholesterol levels and other symptoms linked to obesity . Use these delicious spices when making soups , stews and curries .
 This starchy vegetable is chock full of vitamin A and fibre . Sweet potatoes are also known to lower blood glucose levels . Try them in place of regular potatoes for a lower glycemic index alternative . Roasting or baking sweet potatoes ( with a drizzle of olive oil ) is a delicious way to enjoy their health benefits .
 Debbie would appreciate and be grateful for your support !
 State regulators have reached a deal with Charter Communications after a year - long spat .
 Charter Communications will begin offering high - speed internet to more rural customers following a preliminary deal announced Friday between the company and New York State regulators . The deal , if granted final approval by the state Public Service Commission , would settle allegations that Charter — which does business under the brand name Spectrum — has not adequately expanded its rural broadband network .
 But how does this affect current Spectrum subscribers ? And who will get these new connections ? Below , find answers to the most pressing questions about Friday ’s agreement .
 What did Spectrum promise under the preliminary deal ?
 Under the terms of this new deal , Spectrum needs to do two things : expand its high - speed broadband service to an additional 80,173 upstate homes and businesses by Sept. 30 , 2021 , and pay $ 12 million to help extend broadband to underserved areas .
 Spectrum had previously agreed to extend service to 145,000 new addresses by May 2018 as a condition of its merger with Time Warner Cable . Spectrum has laid almost 65,000 new connections thus far , the deal says , leaving 80,000 for future installation .
 Jack Quinn , the former congressman - turned - college president , might be the most well - known person finding relief for his Parkinson ’s symptoms through working out at Parkinson ’s Boxing in Kenmore , but he ’s not the only one .
 Jennifer Taggart stood in the center of a ring , pointing to a mat painted with grids , diamonds and dots , and instructed her boxer to position his feet parallel to a line . She demonstrated a pair of quick jabs , narrated them with a “ Pop ! Pop ! ” and looked her trainee in the eye .
 He ’s a tall , silvery haired man dressed in black UnderArmour shorts , his hands cocooned in leather boxing gloves .
 This is not his usual uniform .
 This is Jack Quinn , the former Republican congressman - turned - college president , a man who spent a career in suits and ties and being the boss . But he ’s not in command anymore .

 President Trump tweeted this morning , his true feelings about the Muller Report . Today he called it the “ Crazy Muller Report ” and then added the entire Muller report was filled with lies . Trump made it perfectly clear the “ Crazy Muller Report ” was total “ BULSH - T ” . I understood this to mean Trump was ready to tell the truth .
 Again , President Trump tweeted this morning that the Crazy Muller report is total “ BULL SHI ” . This statement opened a door I do n’t think he meant to .
 Logic then tells me everything in the Crazy Muller Report is true because Trump said it ’s total lies . So Trump did all things the report said he did n’t . Now it makes sense . Trump has lost the privilege of runnig the greatest country on earth .
 Some guns are banned in the USA . There are so many more that must be banned .
 If you ’re over 30 , chances are you remember exactly where you were when you heard about the shooting at Columbine High School . And if you ’re under 30 , chances are you ’ve participated in a school lockdown drill .
 20 years ago today , two teenage gunmen killed 12 students and a teacher and wounded more than 20 others , leaving a community devastated and a nation in mourning . Amidst heartbreak and grief , the Columbine tragedy spurred a movement to end gun violence . Today , we carry on this legacy , fighting for safer schools for our children and safer communities for all of us .
 Comment from the amhersttimes.com : Our prayers go up for the people who were killed that day . Our loving concern continues for all of the loved ones these victims left behind .

The Bonnechere River Watershed Project recently received funding from the Ontario Trillium Foundation to organize a Riverwatch program for the watershed. Part of the program will see the creation of a series of workshops over the next year with local residents and businesses to co-develop alternative futures for the watershed.
Workshop outcomes will describe and illustrate the preferences and priorities of the participants in ways that will contribute to a shared vision of the watershed’s future. This vision will be communicated to government agencies and elected officials to assist in development options and opportunities.
The final scenarios will be presented in 2010 to the community and invited officials.
10:30 Facilitated discussion to identify key factors influencing how the lakes and watershed are changing and how these and other factors might influence future changes in the region.
11:15 Ranking of key factors and discussion of what people value about the area.
12:45 Develop alternative futures based on morning discussions and ranking exercise (four subgroups with facilitators).
3:05 Facilitated discussion of futures storylines summarizing common themes and important contrasts.
This is an opportunity for residents in the Bonnechere River watershed to help shape the future in ways that reflect what we value about living here, such as clean water, fishing opportunities, jobs, farms, and rural identity. The Bonnechere watershed is an integrated landscape that combines different land-uses with areas of natural and cultural importance.
Four future scenarios will be developed using a structured process that will be guided by experienced facilitators. Each of the four scenarios will involve a story that begins with the landscape as it is today and unfolds over time as different events occur that shape its future development. These events are sometimes triggered by driving factors such as changes in water quality or the decreasing role of government regulation.
The ingredients for the scenarios will emerge from discussions around key issues in the watershed, resident values and preferences, and important factors that are influencing changes in the watershed.
The scenarios will be further developed following the workshop and illustrated with artistic expressions of the four alternative futures.
Workshop participants are expected to express the interests of their community as well as their own and should be able to appreciate the watershed-wide implications of the scenarios that are developed.
community involvement and a forward-looking vision for the watershed that will help to ensure that what residents value in the watershed will be understood by decision-makers.
In 40 years the Bonnechere River watershed could be quite different from how it is today. What is it that people value in this landscape? Who should decide what the future Bonnechere watershed will look like and what should those decisions be based on? These are the issues the workshop will be addressing.
