For many people autumn weather brings a welcomed time of the year. Adding to the pleasure of the season are the vibrant colors displayed in nature. Leaf pigment, the physics of light, weather conditions, plant species, and geography all play important roles in the color of autumn.
Thanks to the physics of sunlight striking pigments in leaves, we see various leaf colors throughout the year. Leaf pigments play a crucial role in the colors we see. Chlorophylls, carotenoids, and anthocyanins present in a leaf help determine what color the leaf will display.
The pigment that gives leaves their green color is chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is used in photosynthesis which is the process that uses sunlight to transform carbon dioxide and water into carbohydrates (sugars) that fuel tree growth. During the spring and summer, with more hours of sunlight and warmer temperatures, this photosynthetic process is most active thus leaves are green.
When daylight hours become less and temperatures are cooler, photosynthesis slows down and there is less chlorophyll. This decline reveals a yellow or orange pigment-carotenoid. Carotenoids, the same pigment found in carrots and corn, are usually masked by the chlorophyll.
Unlike chlorophyll and carotenoids which are present in leaf cells throughout the growing season, anthocyanins are produced in autumn. Anthocyanins give color to familiar fruits such as cranberries, red apples, cherries, and plums. These complex water soluble compounds in leaf cells react with excess stored plant sugars and exposure to sunlight creating vivid pink, red, and purple leaves.
A mixture of red anthocyanin pigment and yellow carotene often results in the bright orange color seen in some leaves.
Weather conditions that occur before and during the decline of chlorophyll production can affect the color that leaves may display. Carotenoids are always present so the yellow and gold colors are the least affected by weather.
Colors most affected by weather are the red tones created by anthocyanin. On warm sunny days lots of sugar is produced in the leaves. Trees exposed to brighter sunlight generate the reaction between the anthocynanins and the excess sugar creating the bright red hue.
Cooler temperatures cause the veins in the leaves to gradually close preventing the sugars from moving out which preserves the red tones. Thus a succession of warm sunny days and cool crisp nights can paint the most spectacular display of color.
The level of moisture in the soil can also affect autumn color. A severe summer drought can delay the onset of color change by weeks. Ideal conditions for producing the most brilliant colors are a warm wet spring, favorable summer weather, and sunny fall days with the cooler temperatures at night.
The genetics of different tree species help determine what color the leaves will turn. Color depends on the levels of iron, magnesium, phosphorous, or sodium in the tree and the acidity of the chemicals in the leaves. Some tree species displaying yellow foliage are ash, birch, beech, elm, hickory, poplar, and aspen.
Red leaves are seen most often in dogwood, sweetgum, sumac, and black tupelo trees. Some oaks and maples present orange leaves while others range in color from red to yellow, depending on the specific species.
Deciduous forests and trees, with their many broad leaves that change color almost in unison, display the most noticeable fall color. Evergreen species also display fall colors, only slowly and gradually. The appearance of autumn color starts as early as mid September in more northern latitudes, and moves southward reaching its peak in October, but color continues to appear in more southern regions and higher elevations in the west throughout November.
Only a few places in the world have the combination of tree species and climatic conditions necessary for the most vivid fall foliage. Some of the best locations with broadleaved deciduous trees and favorable conditions for brilliant fall color are
Northeastern U.S. (New England), southeastern Canada, Adirondack, Appalachian, Smokey, and Rocky mountain regions, select areas around Seattle, Portland, and San Francisco, also northern Arizona and New Mexico and sections of Colorado.
Remember that cooler higher elevations will display color before lower warmer geographic regions.
Even with these facts the timing, location, and intensity of autumn color are not completely predictable. To truly experience the colorful display you must be adventurous. There are many states with thousands of scenic byways designed to focus on the palettes of autumn color. So even if you live in a region that does not produce an array of color, take an autumn vacation and explore nearby states that do.

Jaundice is a
condition that makes a newborn's skin and the white part of the eyes look
yellow. It happens because there is too much
bilirubin in the baby's blood (hyperbilirubinemia).
Bilirubin is a substance that is made when the body breaks down old
red blood cells.
Jaundice usually is not
a problem. But in rare cases, too much bilirubin in the blood can cause brain
damage (kernicterus). This can lead to hearing loss, intellectual disability, and other problems.
In healthy babies, some
jaundice almost always appears by 2 to 4 days of age. It usually gets better or
goes away on its own within a week or two without causing problems.
In breast-fed babies, mild jaundice sometimes lasts until 10 to 14 days
after birth. In some breast-fed babies, it goes away and then comes back.
Jaundice may last throughout breast-feeding. This isn't usually a problem as
long as the baby gets enough milk by being fed at regular times.
Babies who have jaundice need a follow-up exam within the first 5 days after birth. Before or after that visit, your doctor may ask you to watch for signs that the jaundice is going away or to bring your baby in for a test to check if the jaundice is getting better. Call your doctor if the yellow color gets
brighter after your baby is 3 days old.
Jaundice occurs
because your baby's body has more bilirubin than it can get rid of. Bilirubin
is made when the body breaks down old red blood cells. It leaves the body
through urine and stool. During pregnancy, your body removes bilirubin from
your baby through the
placenta. After birth, your baby's body must get rid
of the bilirubin on its own.
Breast-fed newborns can become
dehydrated easily if feedings are spaced too far
apart. This lack of enough milk in the body makes it harder for your baby to
get rid of wastes such as bilirubin. Also, some of the things that make up
breast milk can change the way the body removes bilirubin.
In rare
cases, too much bilirubin may be caused by infections, a problem with the
baby's digestive system, or a problem with the mom's and baby's blood types
(Rh incompatibility). Your baby may have one of these
problems if jaundice appears less than a day after birth.
Jaundice can make your
baby's skin and the white part of the baby's eyes look yellow. You may see the
yellow color between 1 and 4 days after birth. It shows up first in the baby's
face and chest. Babies who have bilirubin levels that are too high may have a
high-pitched cry. They also may be sluggish and cranky.
Your baby's
doctor will do a physical exam and ask you questions. The doctor may ask
A blood test for bilirubin may be done to find out if
your baby needs treatment.
More tests may be done if the doctor
thinks that a health problem is causing too much bilirubin in the blood.
Most of the time no treatment
is needed for jaundice, because it usually goes away on its own. If you are
breast-feeding, you may be able to help reduce the jaundice by feeding your
baby about 8 to 12 times a day.
Sometimes babies with jaundice
are put under a type of fluorescent light. This is called
phototherapy. The skin absorbs the light. This changes
the bilirubin so that the body can more easily get rid of it in the stool and
urine. The treatment is usually done in a hospital. But babies sometimes are
treated at home.
If a health problem caused the jaundice, your
baby may need other treatment.

if your baby develops signs of a high bilirubin level, which include:
Signs of a very high level of
bilirubin may include:
Your baby's doctor will do a physical
exam and take a medical history to diagnose
jaundice (hyperbilirubinemia). As part of the medical history, the doctor
may ask questions about:
During the exam, the doctor will check your baby's skin
color. This may include pressing a finger lightly on your baby's skin. The
doctor will note whether yellowing related to jaundice is visible only in the
eyes, face, and head or if it is also noticed on the chest and lower body. He
or she may also look for signs of
underlying conditions that can cause jaundice.
The doctor or nurse may place a device (transcutaneous meter) gently against your baby's skin to check your baby's
bilirubin level. If the results are concerning, a
bilirubin test may be done to more precisely measure
the bilirubin level in your baby's blood. The results will help your baby's
doctor decide whether treatment is needed.
If the doctor thinks
that another condition is causing your baby to have too much bilirubin in the
blood, more tests may be done. For example, the doctor may
blood type tests if the cause of hyperbilirubinemia
could be that you and your baby have different blood types (ABO or Rh
Many mothers and their newborns leave the
hospital within 48 hours of the baby's birth, often before signs of jaundice
start. Your baby needs a follow-up exam within the first 5 days after birth.
Call your baby's doctor if at any time you notice a yellow tinge to your baby's
skin and eyes.
Most of the time no medical
treatment is needed for
jaundice in a newborn (hyperbilirubinemia). But watch
for increasing intensity of the yellow tint in the skin and eyes or any change
in your baby's behavior.
Babies who have
bilirubin in their blood at a level that could be
harmful need treatment. Whatever the cause, if the condition is not treated,
too much bilirubin in the blood may lead to brain damage (kernicterus), which could result in hearing loss,
intellectual disability, and other problems.
If your baby needs treatment, he or she will likely have phototherapy. It uses a type of fluorescent light to help your baby's body get rid of bilirubin. Standard
phototherapy is usually done in a hospital. But babies with jaundice who are
otherwise healthy may be treated at home with a type of phototherapy that uses
a fiber-optic wrap, usually a blanket or a band.
If your newborn is receiving phototherapy for jaundice in the hospital,
you can help by:
The fluorescent lights used in phototherapy for babies with
jaundice are not harmful if precautions are taken. Eye shields are placed over
the baby's eyes to protect them while under the light. The shields are removed
during feedings. Babies are accustomed to being in the dark after months in the
womb, so the shields should not bother your baby.
If the baby's jaundice is being caused by
an underlying condition, other treatments may be needed. For example, if
severe jaundice is caused by the baby's body destroying red blood cells (blood
type incompatibility), the baby may need
immunoglobulin (IG). If that doesn't help, the baby
may need to be admitted to a hospital and given a
blood transfusion.
Parents are often asked to watch their
newborns for signs of
jaundice, which produces a yellow tint to the skin and
eyes. Many mothers and their newborns leave the hospital within 48 hours of the
baby's birth, often before signs of jaundice develop. It is recommended that
your infant have a follow-up exam with your doctor within the
first 5 days after birth.
If your baby has jaundice but does not
need phototherapy, your baby's doctor will ask you to watch
for and report any signs of increasing jaundice or changes in behavior. To
check for signs of increasing jaundice:
The best home treatment for jaundice is making sure your baby gets enough to eat. This can provide him or her with the fluids needed to get rid of
the extra bilirubin.
Babies with jaundice who are otherwise healthy may be
treated at home with a type of phototherapy that uses a fiber-optic wrap,
usually a blanket or a band. These wraps usually reduce blood bilirubin levels
more slowly than standard phototherapy, so generally they are used only for
mild jaundice. Sometimes standard therapy and fiber-optic wrap therapy are used
If your baby is being treated
at home for jaundice, be sure you understand how to use all of the
equipment. Ask your baby's doctor for help if you have questions or concerns.
You may need to take your baby to a lab each day to get his or her bilirubin
checked. A home health nurse may visit to make sure all is going well.
If your baby has been treated with phototherapy, the yellow tint to the
baby's skin and eyes may not disappear immediately. But if the yellow tint
intensifies, report it to your doctor.
It's not good to try to treat your baby's jaundice on your own by placing your baby outside in the sun, under lights in your home, or near a window in the
sunlight. Your baby's skin may get burned by the lights or the sun. Also, your baby may get too cold. Special lights and controlled
surroundings are always needed to treat jaundice safely.
mothers who breast-feed their babies are concerned that they will need to stop
breast-feeding if their babies develop jaundice. The American Academy of
Pediatrics encourages women to continue breast-feeding newborns with jaundice
who are otherwise healthy and to focus on increasing the frequency of feedings
(about 8 to 12 times every 24 hours).1 If your baby
needs help getting enough milk, you can use a lactation aid or ask your doctor
or a
lactation consultant to help your baby latch on
If your baby is hospitalized, you may need to pump your
breasts to maintain your milk production. You can then take the milk to the
hospital for your baby's feedings.

In 2012 the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and CMS-contracted reviewers performed chiropractic Medicare reviews nationwide. The results of their efforts were not good news for the chiropractic profession.The reviews pointed to poor record-keeping and billing practices throughout the profession. Claims were also made of inappropriate billing of maintenance care resulting in significant overpayments for chiropractic services.1 Unfortunately, these findings were consistent with previous CMS chiropractic reviews.2
Of the current review findings, the one that is most disappointing is our consistency from one CMS review to the next. It is difficult to respond to our many Medicare problems all at once. It can be overwhelming. However, while we cannot fix everything at once, we can fix something.
There are a specific set of closely related problems that can and should be addressed together. In actuality, the problems are so intertwined that they are really a single concern: matching the number of symptomatic spinal / pelvic regions; the number of spinal /pelvic regions with PART and/or X-ray findings of subluxation; the number of diagnoses, the number of regions adjusted; and the CPT code used to bill for the adjustment.
Volumes have already been written about this concern. Here, I offer a set of questions to help guide doctors in documenting the number of patient complaints, subluxations, diagnoses, regions adjusted and the appropriate billing codes. This series of questions is accompanied by comments and tables to clarify the importance of each question.
Questions to Ask Yourself After Examining a Medicare Patient
1. How many regions of the spine / pelvis did the patient list as painful or symptomatic? Medicare is not purely subluxation based, despite the original and lasting rule that a subluxation must be documented in any region adjusted. The diagnostic criteria also require a symptom code for each region of subluxation. With this in mind, Medicare assumes the patient to have a complaint in each region treated and that the patient reported these complaints during their history. This is a common expectation for many other carriers as well. Carriers do not feel treatment of a region that ivs asymptomatic is necessary. "Asymptomatic" for Medicare and many other carriers translates to "no problem or no condition."
In regard to asymptomatic areas, every chiropractor has had a patient react to examination of an area(s) by saying, "I didn't know that was tender until you pushed on it." We understand and expect this reaction. However, this understanding and expectation are not shared by Medicare.
|Table 1: The Medicare PART System
P = Pain
A = Asymmetry
R = Range of Motion
T = Tissue Tone
2. How many regions of the spine / pelvis did I examine? PART examination is the minimum level of examination required for a spinal / pelvis region.
3. How many regions exhibited PART examination findings? PART examination findings are required in order to adjust any region. There must be findings for at least two of the four PART categories for each region, and one of the categories must be the A category or the R category.
If PART findings are not present in the region(s) considered for adjustment, recent X-rays (within three months of onset) showing subluxation(s) in those region(s) qualify as documentation of the subluxation(s).
4. How many regions are documented as having both symptoms and subluxation(s)? Each region to be treated must have symptoms and subluxations.
5. How many regions does my documentation justify diagnosing and adjusting? Each region to be adjusted must have subluxation and symptom diagnoses. This means each region will have a pair of diagnoses. There will never be an odd number of Medicare diagnoses.
6. Which CPT code matches the number of spinal / pelvic regions diagnosed and requiring adjustment? Each code must match the number of regions the doctor adjusted.
7. Do the number of regions the patient reports as symptomatic, the number of regions examined, the number of regions with PART / X-ray findings of subluxation, the number of regions with subluxation and symptom diagnoses, and the code for the number of regions adjusted match? (Table 2) If the numbers for each of these items are not the same, documentation is insufficient.
8. Which pair(s) of diagnoses represents the most problematic / serious condition(s)? The diagnostic codes for the most significant conditions should be placed on the Medicare claim form (two pairs of subluxation and symptom codes; four codes total). The remaining diagnoses should be placed in a prominent location in the patient's records and in some situations can also be placed in the box marked "Reserved for Local Use" or box 19 of the CMS 1500 form.
Placement of additional diagnoses on the claim form is dependent upon local Medicare carrier requirements and the capability of billing software.
Once the doctor has answered the questions above and the numbers are found to match (Table 2), it is easier to prove the necessity of care. An additional step to improve the odds of this information standing the test of a review is to have the information for answering the questions in one place or as close to each other as possible in the patient's record. Make the information easy for anyone to find. If it isn't in plain sight, most reviewers are not going to dig to find it.

FORT WORTH, Tex. -- News travels fast in the NFL and when one head coach makes a bold, stunning, some may say crazy decision to promote his offensive line coach to defensive coordinator, it ricochets to the game's biggest stage.
In case you woke up thinking that Andy Reid's decision to name Juan Castillo as his new defensive coordinator was a bad dream, it was not. It was as real as the assessment Steelers offensive coordinator Bruce Arians made about the potential fallout from such a decision.
"Andy's job is probably on the line," Arians said Thursday. "But I know this -- he replaced [Castillo] with a good offensive line. Howard Mudd is the absolute best. The quality of the staff is there. Now it's just a matter of game day and how they're going to handle it."
Arians has to gotten know Castillo through coaching channels and is familiar with his legendary work ethic.
"Nobody's going to work harder because Juan is one of the hardest-working coaches that I know," Arians said. "When you block as many things as Juan has blocked you kind of know what's sound on defense and what's not."
Still, there are very legitimate questions about how Castillo will handle some of the chores of the job he is not accustomed to.
"Now matching wits with an offensive coordinator -- the scheme's going to be sound. He knows what's sound," Arians said. "It's having the gut calls, when to blitz, when not to blitz, when to play this, when to play that. That would be the only question I would have."
Steelers linebackers coach Keith Butler was rumored to be one of the candidates for the opening.
"I think Andy's sitting there thinking, 'How can I beat protections?'" Butler said. "And he's got a guy that's trying to figure out how to protect against every team in the league. So this guy has probably seen every blitz known to man. So I can see Andy's point of view."
No one seems to recall such a move ever taking place in the NFL.
"No, I haven't," Butler said. "But he's not doing it to get fired I will tell you that."
Steelers offensive line coach Sean Kugler actually played under Reid in Texas El-Paso when Reid was his position coach. Kugler laughed when he was asked if he had any desire to one day be a defensive coordinator.
"I have no aspirations to do that," Kugler said. "If I was asked to do it, I don't know if I would refuse. I enjoy coaching the offensive line. But people are up for different challenges."
Asked for his best Reid story, Kugler obliged.
"Most of them involve food," Kugler said. "The whole time in college all the other coaches used to bring doughnuts and he never brought doughnuts. We used to just kill him on it, 'When are you going to bring the doughnuts?' We used to kid him that he ate them on the way to work."

Public Affairs Specialist
(Sept. 21, 2009)--The University of Texas at San Antonio can add record-breaking enrollment to the list of achievements in 2009. Based on preliminary enrollment data from recent census figures, UTSA now has 29,133 students with a nearly 20-percent increase in doctoral students. The figures have been forwarded to the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board for review.
The total enrollment increase of 2.5 percent from last fall includes an undergraduate count of 25,135 students from 51 U.S. states and territories and more than 80 countries.
Consistent with UTSA's goal to increase the proportion of graduate students, census data shows total graduate student enrollment for fall 2009 increased by 7.5 percent.
Master's program enrollment jumped to 3,200 students from 3,021, and 85 students were added to doctoral programs for an increase of 19.6 percent. A total of 3,755 graduate students, including 555 doctoral candidates, currently attend UTSA.
"We are excited to see the development and growth of the master's and doctoral programs," said UTSA President Ricardo Romo. "This growth at the graduate level contributes to UTSA's strategic goal of becoming a premier public research university and demonstrates that UTSA continues to be an institution of first choice."
According to The Hispanic Outlook in Higher Education Magazine's 2008 rankings, UTSA nationally ranks fourth in the number of undergraduate degrees and 12th in the number of master's degrees awarded to Hispanic students. Additionally, UTSA's College of Business graduate school was named No. 1 in the nation for Hispanic students by Hispanic Business magazine.
To accommodate increasing enrollments and achieve its vision to become a premier research university, UTSA has implemented plans for more than $265 million in additional construction over the next few years.
The recent completion this fall of the 145,400-square-foot Applied Engineering and Technology (AET) classroom and laboratory building marks the newest addition on Main Campus. The AET Building will host biotech science, biomedical, electrical, civil and environmental engineering classes as well as physics and astronomy. The total project cost is $82.5 million.
UTSA is one of the fastest growing higher education institutions in Texas and the second largest of nine academic universities and six health institutions in the UT System. As a multicultural institution of access and excellence, UTSA aims to be a premier public research university providing access to educational excellence and preparing citizen leaders for the global environment.--------------------------------

ATLANTA, Dec. 15 (UPI) -- Matt Ryan threw for three touchdowns Thursday and improved Atlanta's playoff chances by leading the Falcons to a 41-14 blasting of Jacksonville.
Atlanta won for the seventh time in nine games and advanced to 9-5, in solid position for at least a wild-card berth. New Orleans (10-3) is out front in the NFC South and will try to regain a two-game lead over Atlanta Sunday when it meets Minnesota.
The Falcons and Saints face each other the day after Christmas in Atlanta.
Ryan opened the scoring with a 29-yard pass to Julio Jones in the first period and his other two touchdown tosses went to Roddy White -- who caught a 6-yarder in the second quarter and a 29-yarder in the third, and went over 1,000 yards receiving for the fifth straight year, the first player in franchise history to put together such a streak.
Atlanta built a 41-0 lead before Jacksonville managed to score on the return of a blocked punt by Zach Potter late in the third period.
Jacksonville (4-9) came into the game last in the NFL in yards per game with 260. The Jaguars managed only 207 total yards against the Falcons and 85 of those came against mostly backup defenders during a drive that ended in a Blaine Gabbert-to-Chastin West 16-yard touchdown pass with 59 seconds left in the game.
Atlanta forced four turnovers, one of them resulting in a touchdown when Corey Peters ran a fumble back 13 yards early in the second half.
Ryan completed 19-of-26 passes for 224 yards. White had 10 receptions for 135 yards.

The media is abuzz in the wake of a surprising new study published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute linking omega-3s to a higher risk of prostate cancer. But should men give up eating their salmon?
Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids are generally acclaimed for their link to reduced inflammation and overall health promotion, especially heart health. Omega-3s are found in salmon and other fatty fish as well as in supplements. Fish oil capsules containing the omega-3s EPA and DHA are among the most popular supplements.
The study measured the percent of three omega-3s most commonly found in fish and supplements – DHA, EPA and DPA – in the blood of 834 men with prostate cancer matched to 1,393 men without cancer. Men with the highest percentage of omega-3s in their blood had a 43% increased risk of prostate cancer compared to those with the lowest concentration. No increase in risk was found in the men in the two middle quartiles – in other words, those with moderate levels.
What's a guy to do? For now, follow AICR's evidence-based recommendations for prostate cancer. Men can include plenty of foods rich in the antioxidants lycopene (tomatoes are a great source) and selenium (found in sunflower seeds and Brazil nuts) and rest easy knowing they're helping reduce their risk of not only cancer but other chronic Read more… "Omega-3s and Prostate Cancer Fact Check: What's a Guy to Do?"

Pens Unveil Stadium Series Jerseyby Staff Writer / Pittsburgh Penguins
The Penguins are no strangers to playing outdoor hockey. They've been a part of two Winter Classics (at Buffalo in Ralph Wilson Stadium in 2008; vs. Washington in Heinz Field in 2011).
On March 1 Pittsburgh will play their third outdoor game against the defending Stanley Cup champion Chicago Blackhawks at Soldier Field as part of the NHL's Stadium Series.
On Friday afternoon, the Penguins – with the help of Chris Kunitz – unveiled their official Stadium Series jersey.
"I like the logo with the silver accent and metallic look," said jersey model Kunitz. "It has a different kind of fit with the striping. The socks and pants all tie into one. It's a good look. It keeps the original in tact, but changed enough to play in an outdoor game."
The jersey features a chrome-treated Penguins logo design inspired from the chrome details of the NHL shield, a dynamic and modern look to conventional team identity.
Numbering on the back of the jerseys is enlarged and sleeve numbers are angled to improve visibility in outdoor venues.
The Penguins' Stadium Series jersey was designed with creative input from the team, Reebok and the NHL. Fans can pre-order the jersey in-person at the PensGear Team Store in CONSOL Energy Center for delivery in January.

Gov. John Hickenlooper to undergo surgery: Top 10 things you should know about it
Gov. John Hickenlooper will be out of the office for a few days this week after having hip arthroscopy on Tuesday.
His staff decided to have a little fun with the governor and came up with a Top 10 things you need to know about the governor's surgery (No. 1 is priceless; so is No. 5):
10. It's always good to catch up on needed rest — even if under anesthesia.
9. One bionic joint at a time.
8. His right side is hurting so bad he opted for a little surgery. His left side can't be far behind.
7. He's getting a little hipper.
6. This puts the governor on injured reserve, but we expect him to be ready by mid season for more Peyton Manning passes.
5. This really isn't surgery. It's a cover for the governor to have the new Colorado logo tattooed on his leg.
4. All great athletes meet a surgeon at some point.
3. Have you seen him dance? He needs a new hip.
2. This guarantees the governor a seat in the sag wagon for Pedal The Plains.
1. Even though it's easy to put one's foot in one's mouth, repeated attempts eventually take a toll on the hips.

Our History
Beginning in the 1760s when the earliest settlers crossed the divides of the Allegheny Mountains and made their tomahawk claims along the waters of the upper Monongahela River in what became the Hacker's Creek settlements of western Virginia, the names and exploits of the frontiersmen of the region were indelibly inscribed in the pages of American history. These settlements were the western frontier of the fledgling nation far longer than any place in its western expansion; and, there were more conflicts between its people and the red man during the last half of the eighteenth century than anywhere else on the long frontier.
Hacker's Creek was named for John Hacker, a Stafford County,Virginia, native who came with the first party of men to settle at present-day Buckhannon, Upshur County, West Virginia. Finding that land he desired at Buckhannon had already been claimed by Samuel Pringle, an earlier sojourner in the region, he crossed the Buckhannon Mountain and selected four hundred acres on a tributary of the Muddy River, as the West Fork of the Monongahela River was then called. John Hacker thus became the first permanent European settler in what is today's
Lewis County, West Virginia
Our Purpose
John Hacker, the Pringles, and other early settlers in the Central West Virginia region were memorialized when the Hacker's Creek Pioneer Descendants was organized in 1982. The society's original purpose was to preserve the history and genealogy of the Hacker's Creek watershed in Lewis and Upshur counties.
The members soon realized that the focus of their efforts extended far beyond these very limited boundaries; and, they expanded their area of interest to include all of Central West Virginia in particular and the entire
state of West Virginia
in general. The reasons for this expanded scope can best be understood by looking at the early history of the region and the formation of the various counties in the state.
Ninety-two persons from six states attended the first meeting of the HCPD at Broad Run Baptist Church in Lewis County in October 1982. Today the society has nearly a thousand members in nearly every state, Canada, Germany, and Russia.

April 22, 1936 - October 13, 2008
Charlotte Fisk, 72, of Middlebury, Vermont died peacefully on October 13, 2008. Daughter of Earl Ellsworth Fisk and Florence Leavitt Fisk, she was born and raised in Green Bay, Wisconsin. She attended Northwestern University where she studied drama, and then transferred to Rollins College. She moved to New Vernon, NJ with her family where she raised her children and ran her own business. In 1976 her family relocated to Vermont where they owned a farm in Cornwall. In more recent years, she was a resident of Middlebury, Vermont.
Charlotte was an amazing quilter and handcrafter, and shared this gift with many people over the years. Owner of Charlotte's Web in Bernardsville, NJ and later Charlotte's Collections in Middlebury, Vermont, she was also selected during the Clinton Administration to hang an ornament she created on the While House Christmas tree. Charlotte was active in the Milk and Honey Quilter's Guild of Middlebury, and played many key roles in that group. In recent years she took the lead in coordinating volunteers to make quilts for soldiers injured in the war in Iraq. She will also be remembered for her service on the Middlebury Volunteer Ambulance Squad, as someone with strong political convictions who served as a role model to many in advocating for women's rights, her love for the dogs she adopted from the Humane Society over the years, and her passion for football as demonstrated by her support of the Green Bay Packers and the Middlebury Tigers. Charlotte fought many health battles over the years and amazed everyone with her ability to defy the medical odds, continuing to live independently, engaged in her local community and spending time with her family and her many wonderful friends. She will be remembered for her creative talents, compassion, sense of humor, and her positive attitude in even the most difficult of times.
Charlotte was predeceased by her half-brother William Fisk of DePere, Wisconsin. She is survived by her two children, William B. Astor, and G. Todd Astor, of Essex Junction, Vermont, his wife, Robin Rhodes Astor, and Charlotte's three adoring grandchildren, Alexandra, Rebecca, and Stephen. She is also survived by her half-brother George Fisk in St. Joseph, Michigan, seven nieces and nephews, and many great-nieces and nephews.
Calling hours for her friends and family will be held on Saturday, October 25th from 2-4 p.m. at Sanderson's Funeral Home in Middlebury, Vermont.
In lieu of flowers, gifts may be made to the Addison County Humane Society.

Pacers hope to fix their road woes
The Indiana Pacers know what's happened to them this season when they have ventured outside of Bankers Life Fieldhouse to play games.
When they face a team with a winning record, they have lost the majority of the time.
The Pacers get a chance to fix that problem this week when they play four straight road games against plus-.500 teams.
The first opportunity comes Monday afternoon against the Memphis Grizzlies. The Pacers, who are 9-13 on the road this season, also play at Portland, Utah and Denver on the trip.
The Pacers have beaten three of the four -- Memphis, Portland and Utah -- at the fieldhouse this season.
Now they have to do it away from home.
"We just have to figure out a way to win on the road," center Roy Hibbert said. "I'm not going to lie to you: It's been tough for us."
The Pacers begin the road trip with the third-best record in the Eastern Conference, which would mean home court in the first round of the playoffs, but at some point they won't have that in their favor.
"The biggest hurdle is being a team that can get wins on the road," swingman Paul George said. "When it comes down to playoff time, if we don't have the higher seed, we're pretty much screwed. So we have to be able to learn how to win on the road."
The Pacers have only one quality road victory this season. They won in Chicago in early December, and even then, it took a late Hibbert block on Luol Deng to get the victory.
The Pacers have lost their past three road games against teams with winning records -- Atlanta, Boston and Brooklyn -- by an average of 13 points.
"Nothing builds confidence and belief more than a road win over a playoff team or a plus-.500 team," coach Frank Vogel said. "Defense travels, that's the one thing I know. You go into opposing buildings and your defense is solid. It comes down to executing offensively."
Defense hasn't been a problem for the Pacers. They would excel in that area if they played games in an alley.
The problem lies on the offensive end of the court.
The Pacers average six fewer points on the road while turning the ball over two times more per game.
"The best thing we can do is stay together," George said. "Our defense will hold up and we'll continue to get better at that. But our offense is what really has to click. Coach preaches sharing the ball. That's what we have to do on this trip."
Mike Wells writes for the Indianapolis Star

How to Cook Perfect Wild Rice
In cooking, there is a difference between simple and easy. Easy recipes don't require a lot of skill to prepare. Then, there are recipes that are simple: that is to say that there are few ingredients, but the preparation of the ingredients may be very complex.
Cooking rice is as much an art as it is a science. I remember watching a program when chef Morimoto talked about how difficult it is to prepare properly seasoned sushi rice. I'm no expert at making sushi rice but I do make a lot of brown, basmati, jasmine and wild rice for my husband. If cooked improperly, wild rice can taste like horse food. But it doesn't have to be that way, I've discovered some method and techniques that will produce a softer, more delicate end product . Just because wild rice is good for you doesn't mean that it can't taste good as well.
A special note: The wild rice in the picture was given by my father-in-law's friends from Minnesota.
Yields: 61 cup wild rice
1 cup basmati rice
1/2 lemon, freshly squeezed
2 1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbs butter, at room temperature
Wash the rice throughly, discard any dirt. Place in a bucket, cover with water. Add 1/2 of the juice of a lemon with its pulp. Soak for at least 2 hours. Drain as much water as possible.
Repeat the same procedure for the wild rice without the lemon juice though.
In a saucepan, bring about 3 cups of water to a boil. Add the wild rice. Bring the liquid back to a boil, then immediately lower the heat to a gentle simmer. Cover with a lid, then cook for about 50 minutes. Add 1 teaspoon of salt half way through the cooking process. The wild rice should be tender. Do not remove the lid and wait until the basmati rice is ready.
Fill about 4 quarts of water in a big pot. Bring to a boil. Add the rice. Bring the liquid back to a boil, then immediately lower the heat to a gentle boil. That way the rice is cooked all the way through evenly. Cook for about 8 minutes at a bubbly simmer. Add 1 teaspoon of salt half way through the cooking process (it will bring the natural flavor of the basmati rice and the rice will be more tender). Keep stirring the rice every now and then so that the rice does not stick to the bottom of the pot. It may take longer than the cooking time written on the instructions of the package. The grains of rice should be still a little hard, about 2/3 of the way cooked. Drain the liquid from the rice using a fine mesh colander. Do NOT rinse. Discard the liquid.
Transfer the rice to a small saucepan. Using the pestle (the stick) of a mortar and pestle, create 3 evenly-spaced holes (forming a triangle) in the pot of rice and drizzle about between 1/2 to 3/4 cup of water into the rice. Sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon of salt if you'd like to. Place little mounts of butter all over the rice. Seal the saucepan with an aluminum sheet and cover tightly with a lid. Place on the stove over high heat for about 4-5 minutes. Steam should escape from the pot.
Drain the excess liquid from the wild rice (cooked a little earlier) using a fine mesh colander. Transfer the wild rice to the basmati rice saucepan. Lower the heat to a medium low, cover the lid again and cook for another 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and wait at least 10 minutes for the rice to set. Do not remove the lid.
Fluff and mix both types of rice together. The rice is ready.
Toasted Sesame Tofu Caramelized with Agave Nectar, Wasabi and Soy Sauce. I served it with wild rice.
One cup of raw wild rice yields 3 to 4 cups cooked.
I always add one part of basmati (or brown rice) for one part of wild rice for texture.

Deer Park parent pulls a gun on another parent in school drop-off line
No charges will be filed after a Deer Park mother pulled a gun on another parent in the Deer Park Elementary morning drop-off, police said.
Before 8 a.m. Thursday, a road rage incident occurred between two vehicles dropping children off at the school, Deer Park Police Lt. Frank Hart said Friday.
ROAD DEBRIS DEATH: Police offer reward for information in Highway 146 flying bolt incident
One parent got out of their vehicle and ran up to the window of the second vehicle. The woman in that vehicle pointed a gun at the other parent, Hart said.
The Harris County district attorney's office declined to file charges, as the woman with the gun said she was afraid and thought she was being attacked.
In a letter sent to parents, the school's principal said children were inside both of the vehicles during the incident, which was also witnessed by children in the surrounding area.
"I'm writing to inform you of an incident involving two parents that took place in the drop-off lane at Deer Park Elementary this morning. As students were being dropped off before school this morning, the two parents were involved in a disagreement. The confrontation escalated, ending with one parent pointing a firearm at the other.
Other parents witnessed the disagreement, and the police were contacted and quickly arrived on the scene.
Unfortunately, children were in both of the vehicles involved, and students were present in other nearby vehicles as well. No one was injured in the incident. In fact, the weapon was never used. But what should have been a reasonably safe drop-off process quickly became a police investigation.
At our school, teaching students the skills and knowledge they need to be successful in life is our goal and purpose. But we don't just teach language arts or science or mathematics or fine arts. We also teach children the appropriate way to resolve conflicts. It's not unusual for there to be disagreements between students at our school, but we always encourage children to seek a peaceful end to the conflict.
At one time or another, we've all experienced frustration while driving. But, as our students know all too well, it's never a good idea to react when emotions are high.
My hope is that we can all look at what happened this morning and reconsider how we deal with disagreements and anger in our lives. Conflicts such as the one that took place this morning have no place at our school. Keeping our schools safe for our children and community is our highest priority, but we can't do it alone. It takes all of us being aware of our surroundings, reporting suspicious activities, and using good judgment and restraint when disagreements arise.
Staff members are trained through the Crisis Prevention Institute, giving them the ability to intervene using specific techniques to deescalate a crisis situation. In this way, we are able to assure the Care, Welfare, Safety and Security for all students and staff at our school. I have included a crisis prevention resource at the link below.
In closing, I want to thank you in advance for doing your part to keep Deer Park Elementary a place where our students feel safe and secure.
Lisa McLaughlin
Principal, Deer Park Elementary"
