Green River Mayor Ed Bentley explained at the opening of the public hearing held on June 12, the first part of the hearing is to gather comments on the 2006-2007 city budget. He presented the budget and explained what needs to be done before the end of the month.
"A city budget must have at least three and not more than 10 percent carry over in the general fund from year to year. The overage we have will be put into the capital projects fund in accordance with Utah State law. This is for the 2006-2007 budget which closes on June 30," said Mayor Bentley.
No public comments were heard on this issue.
For the next hour, the council took comments on the proposed budget for the fiscal year 2007-2008. Mayor Bentley reviewed the changes already being considered and instructed the council to make these changes to the proposed budget.
Former councilman and now chairman of the Green River PACT, Tom Burr, was the first to speak. He asked the council to reinstate the $12,000 to the community center so they can at least pay their utilities. He said the reduction to $10,600 was not enough to do that.
Councilman Dan Harrison stated he thought the community center provides many services to the children of Green River and the least the city can do is pay their utility bills. Councilman Kent Johnson suggested changes to other items and the reinstatement of the original $12,000 to the community center.
Connie Copenhaver presented copies of the years utility bills for the center which total near the $12,000. She said if there is increases in costs, they could not handle it.
Seven more residents spoke in favor of the Green River Community Center/Boys and Girls Club, and one spoke against having the center at the present location.
When the council entered into the regular city council meeting, the changes to the budget were discussed and it was agreed to increase the line item for the community center to allow the full $12,000 for utilities, and to reimburse them for concrete work for a basketball court.
Another item discussed by residents was the medical center. Federal law states the medical center must have three months operating funds in reserve at all times. The city council also made allowance for this in the new budget when the regular city council meeting was convened.
In other business completed by the Green River City Council, Coralie Seright was awarded the bid to build and maintain the Web sites for the city, the museum and the archives. She will also establish and maintain the city's TV station.
The next Green River City Council meeting will be held July 10 at 7 p.m. at city hall.

Lucky Craft and Skeet Reese thought they had something special last year when they collaborated to create the premium Redemption Spinnerbaits, but they didn't know just how special until the 2009 BassMaster Classic and Reese's huge win.
It all came together on the last day of the Classic when Skeet Reese, fishing in one of the hardest fished parts of the Red River, used the new Lucky Craft 3/8 oz. Redemption Spinnerbaits (MS American shad pattern, nickel blades and iridescent coral skirt) to catch his key fish in the morning and win on the last day of the Classic. The Lucky Craft Redemption Spinnerbaits are the culmination of Lucky Craft's engineering creativity and Skeet Reese's years of elite tournament bass fishing. After Skeet's win, he and Lucky Craft regrouped and made further improvements to the baits.
Featuring an unparalleled realistic look, thanks in a large part to Lucky Craft's sexy, translucent, poly-carbonate crankbait technology, the Redemption spinnerbaits really excel in clearer water when the fish get finicky. The poly-carbonate shell, used in the head of the spinnerbait, is what allows Lucky Craft to provide their signature detailed finishes. It doesn't hurt either that the poly-carbonate is super durable and each head has a tungsten interior.
New blades, like the ones Skeet used in the Classic were also added. These new blades feature Japanese technology never seen before in U.S. waters, complete with unprecedented flash and vibrations. The entire bait is made with premium components including Gamakatsu hooks and internal tungsten components. The bottom line is Redemption Spinnerbaits are extremely versatile, great for fishing in cover or open water, shallow or deep. Several versions are available or will be soon - some with features unlike any other spinnerbait – rattles inside the head. New versions will also include silent models, straight and bent wire models (for reaching various depths), as well as, additional sizes. Keep checking back.

Comments: Love the detail on the head and the colors are amazing caught alot of fish on this spinnerbait, but the blade is really cheap you might have to switch them out after a few trips.
From: Jay: NC
Comments: I bought this spinnerbait shortly after Skeet Reese used it to win the '09 classic, and it's worth every extra penny, it has a small profile and is SO realistic. I broke mine off, and got it back a week later when I saw 3 strands sticking out of the muck. not a spec of rust or rot, this bait works just as good as it did before. You'll get some monster sacks on it.
From: Cobi: MI
Comments:I bought a few in different colors, the skirts and heads are real good looking but the hooks and blades are cheap. I had blades fall off and one fish bent the hook. I lost numerous fish on them and now I am scared to throw them. I lost two good fish on them in a tournament that would of put me in money, I won't buy again, which is very disappointing because they look great but work poorly.
From:James, NY, USA
Comments:I really liked the features and look of the bait and thought it would be worth the price. I fished with it about a week ago and caught several nice bass. It did have a few drawbacks. One was it tended to roll over on it's side when retrieved too quickly. The skirt was disintegrating with every fish until only about 20% was left after only 2 hours of fishing. But the main beef with this bait is the lack of quality of the blades. They tarnished and spotted beyond polishing after only one outing on the water. For a spinnerbait costing this much, I certainly expected better quality components in my bait.

Good afternoon how are you doing hope all is well :-)
I wish you nothing but good luck with everything that you want to achieve
That sounds intersting, sorry to hear that you lost credits from changing your major that really stinks. I like the field since I am in my mid 40s there is gonna be a certain field or areas that I will be able to apply for due to age limitations. I am doing this to try to get into that field plus showing other employers that i do have a degree in something and that they might consider me more than other people except for the younger ones. They already have the degree if not a bachelors already and have some years work experience. i guess only time will tell
no problem are you going for an assoc or bachelors degree is it in criminal justice or in another field
That is good to hear about the sheriff's department and I wish you good luck
i saw that you commented on yourself sorry if you think that I am being nosey.
I am going to school for criminal justice and applied with the sheriff's office here for rookie but there is a freeze right now on everything here. I guess i will just have to wait and see what happens.
That is good that you are gonna be able to go to a state college
I am going to kaplan online which I like a lot

GDB 14: The Devils made us do it
November 09 2008 04:29PM
Remember when Gretzky referred to the Devils as a Mickey Mouse Organization? Wasn't that awesome?
Remember years later when Disney bought the Mighty Ducks making them an actual "Mickey Mouse Organization?" Was that irony lost on everyone but us?
Oilers and Devils. No Brodeur tonight either. The Devils without Brodeur is like our favourite Backstreet Boys song.
Go Oilers!
November 09 2008, 05:41PM
If someone, say Stortini, runs Weekes, is that considered a hate crime? Hate penalty perhaps.
November 09 2008, 05:47PM
Sure is quiet in here tonight. Did everyone head for warmer climates this weekend?
November 09 2008, 05:59PM
If the Devils bench was our net we'd be losing 30-0 already.
November 09 2008, 06:17PM
If this Justice League meeting were any deader, it'd be my girlfriend!
November 09 2008, 06:17PM
Jeanshorts: Well, if the Devils can keep doing that, they may need to forfeit.
November 09 2008, 06:31PM
Yeesh. JDD may just be for real.
November 09 2008, 06:37PM
Yeah, JDD looks good so far.
November 09 2008, 06:44PM
Souray scores, Clemmensen looks AHL-calibre.
1-0 Edmonton.
November 09 2008, 06:47PM
Good save by JDD.
November 09 2008, 06:53PM
And that is why everyone loves Hemsky.
November 09 2008, 06:53PM
I'll call no kick!
November 09 2008, 06:53PM
Are you kidding me? That goal was sick, even though it was his skate that finished it.
Oduya? I love how it sounds like Kevin Quinn's asking a question every time that guy touched the puck.
November 09 2008, 06:55PM
2-0. Souray, Hemsky.
November 09 2008, 07:01PM
and don't forget JDD got an assist too eh? (as per Sportsnet)
November 09 2008, 07:05PM
Hahaha. Clear win for Souray over Clarkson.
November 09 2008, 07:09PM
And Brodziak hits the post on the empty net.
November 09 2008, 07:28PM
Brodziak is due. If he doesn't score tonight he's getting a hat trick next game. Take it to the bank!
November 09 2008, 07:43PM
Erik Cole injured. Hope it isn't serious.
November 09 2008, 07:46PM
Hey guys, with no video feed for me to watch, whats the lines tonight? Did the MacBlender get fired up for the game?
November 09 2008, 07:50PM
And just like that, Cole's back.
November 09 2008, 07:51PM
Pisani - Horcoff - Cole Moreau - Gagner - Hemsky Penner - Coglaino - Pouliot Nilsson - Brodziak - Stortini
November 09 2008, 07:51PM
And here's a feed:
November 09 2008, 07:54PM
I don't know if it's the fact that we are playing an AHLplus team tonight, but the MacBlender looks to have finally paid off.
November 09 2008, 07:55PM
Jonathan -is there anything you don't know? Thank you so much!
And I have to say those are definitely MacBlended lines!!
November 09 2008, 07:56PM
Penner started on the top unit, but Moreau replaced him about two shifts in.
Developing Gagner is clearly the priority.
November 09 2008, 08:01PM
Atta be JDD!!!
November 09 2008, 08:02PM
2-1 Final.
Deslauriers with a drawn penalty, an assist, and a bunch of saves. Very good game.
November 09 2008, 08:02PM
Whoooo. At least our more than likely impending loss to the Rangers tomorrow will be a little easier to swallow. Who the hell made our schedule this year anyway? Mike Keenan? Sheesh.
November 09 2008, 08:08PM
Wow. Louie Debrusk does not interrupt Kevin Quinn nearly enough.
November 09 2008, 08:12PM
I'm working nightshift so I had to miss the game and the meeting.... Can someone tell me why the meeting minutes are so short? Where was the party? Wow.
Get Roli in the crate...
November 09 2008, 09:19PM
Travis, people usually post when they have something to bitch about. It was a pretty good game for the Oil and the coaching staff, ergo, not much to talk about. LOL
That was the most relaxing game of the season so far.
November 09 2008, 10:25PM
Man, I PVR the game, return home from a family event, pop a muscle relaxant and begin the booze, and this is the wittiness I get? Wanye, we miss you, you glib Mofo.
STill, we get the W, so I can't complain..didn'y even wear my Gagner jersey whilst watching...is he gonna power up soon?
BTW, I like most of the new lines. I would assume a win would always do that.
November 09 2008, 10:42PM
Holy smokes! You would have thought that the Oil hadn't won 2-1 up in this beeyatch.
November 09 2008, 10:49PM
Might I also add that I just saw the highlights and that Hemsky goal was so sick that it belongs in palleative care.
And Souray scored again..... didn't he Souray haters? Right.
November 09 2008, 10:50PM
Living in a Oil hostile environment (ie the West coast after growing up in Sherwood Park) this is my outlet for some sugar. I now need an insulin shot from this blog.

Lincoln MKZ: Once more, with audacity
It takes more than good genes to survive almost 100 years in the U.S. auto business. It requires grit, stamina, courage and, in the case of Lincoln, a tremendous amount of chutzpah to "introduce" a company that's been around longer than the light switch. Like 111-year-old geriatric Cadillac and the even more elderly 114-year-old Buick, Lincoln is part of an automotive old folks club that refuses to go gently into the night.
With its 2013 MKZ, Ford's luxury division kicks off a four-model reinvention strategy designed to appeal to buyers who are younger than the brand's 65-year-old median age but still AARP eligible. Unusual as it seems to reboot a legacy brand with a redo instead of an entirely new model, the MKZ makes a certain amount of sense. In the seven years it's been on the market, the midsize sedan has become Lincoln's best seller. It is also part of the fast-growing, entry-level luxury segment.
What luxury means, of course, is relative. In the case of the MKZ, it means a car that foregoes dramatic exterior design for creature comforts and safety features in a vehicle priced ever-so-slightly out of reach of mere plebes. The version I tested cost $49,585.
The first vehicle to emerge from Lincoln's dedicated design studio in Detroit, the 2013 MKZ sports a slightly more aerodynamic and edgy style than the outgoing model with a large panoramic roof, LED brake lights that extend across the entire rear end and a split-wing grille vaguely reminiscent of a Beemer. Still, its most significant innovations are technological.
The base model MKZ is powered with a 2.0-liter inline-four cylinder engine. I was driving the 3.7-liter V6, which was responsive off the line and felt completely comfortable cruising the carpool lane at speed. It did, however, yield an abysmal 21.7 mpg. A hybrid model more than doubles the car's fuel economy to an EPA-estimated 45 mpg and is priced the same as the gas model, which starts at $36,800.
In an effort to streamline its controls and simplify its interior, Lincoln has moved the MKZ's gear selector next to the eight-inch touch screen which accesses the car's three drive modes, as well as the entertainment, navigation, climate and phone systems. The car's push-button start tops a vertical stack of buttons for park, reverse, neutral, drive and sport, the result of which is more space at the driver's right elbow for various cubbies.
A standard feature on all three trims of the MKZ is Lincoln Drive Control, which automatically adjusts the suspension, steering, engine, transmission, traction and stability control settings based on driver inputs. Lincoln says the suspension settings alone are updated 50 times a second, including on the all-wheel drive version I inadvertently tested on the dirt and sand access roads leading into the Johnson Valley Off-Highway Vehicle recreation area this past weekend. Even at speeds exceeding 60 mph, the MKZ held its ground without skidding into the scrub.
One of Lincoln's goals is to distinguish the brand through personalization. To that end, Lincoln is comping buyers with three years of live operator assistance accessible through SYNC Live. With the press of a button, drivers are connected to a real human being who can send custom navigation to the car and provide them with addresses, similar to GM's OnStar. That same information is also accessible through the car's built-in Nav, but it can't be operated while driving.
As a whole, the MKZ is so safety conscious it's borderline hypochondriac. In addition to a lane departure warning system integrated into the side mirrors, there's long-range radar that senses what's in front of the car and auto adjusts the speed to avoid a fender bender, as well as a camera integrated into the rearview mirror that reads the road's lane markers and alerts drivers to hazards with blindingly bright lights and dramatic beeps.
Considering all the money spent "introducing the Lincoln Motor Company" with its "new" MKZ, the car doesn't feel like a dramatically different direction for the company. The five-door five-seater is comfortable. It's spacious with a good amount of head and leg room, front and back. It's nicely finished with understated black leather seats and color-matched soft plastic touch points on the interior door panels and dash. It's easy to drive. But ultimately the MKZ lacks distinction other than the fact that Lincoln, 96 years into its existence, has become something of a novelty.

2002 Marks the 30th Anniversary of UNEP. Has it been a Happy Birthday for the Environment?
But it is my hope that, when the historians' pencils are sharpened to weigh the impact of the whirlwind of environment-related meetings, conferences and summits, they may record that the second year of the new millennium and UNEP's 30th anniversary was a defining moment in the long march towards a more environmentally-sound, sustainable, healthier and fairer world.
It is too easy to view events such as the World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD) in Johannesburg or the Finance for Development meeting in Monterrey, Mexico as just another round of high level nibbles, of political get-togethers that are merely prolonging the agony of the planet and the poor.
I believe we have, as a result of the negotiations and agreements that have marked 2002 and culminating in the WSSD, witnessed some real stirrings of intent, some clear routes of progress, that can transform the fine words of previous years and decades into real and genuine action.
The Plan of Implementation, and the many partnerships, agreed in South Africa has targets and it has time-tables on issues such as fisheries and wildlife to ones on drinking water and sanitation. It is already focusing the work of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) along with many other organizations and groups across the whole spectrum of society.
Indeed when environment ministers from across the globe meet at UNEP's headquarters in Nairobi, Kenya, in early February, 2003 the WSSD Plan and the challenge of taking it forward, of delivering real and meaningful results, will be at the centre of the talks, at the centre of the decisions.
At WSSD, financial commitments were made in support of the Plan of Implementation, partnerships and the Millennium Declaration goals in the areas of water and sanitation. These include $970 million from the United States some 21 water- and sanitation-related initiatives worth at least US$20 million. Similarly, the Plan of Implementation commitment on energy access will be accompanied by financial commitments from the EU of $700 million, the US of $43 million and 32 separate partnership initiatives worth up to US$26 million.
Optimism also comes from the decision by Canada to ratify the Kyoto Protocol on climate change. The eyes of the world are now on Russia to put its pen to this paper so it can come into force.
Meanwhile the new spirit of cooperation, the new vision, espoused by African leaders and ministers in the guise of the New Partnership for African Development or Nepad give us a new start for this most wondrous of Continents, from where the human race took its first unsteady steps towards the diversity of civilisations and cultures we see today.
Many African countries recognise that, only through partnership with each other, can a new dawn for this Continent come.
There is also a real recognition that developed nations, committing funds to assist developing ones, need re-assurance that the cash will be well and effectively spent.
WSSD may have been a milestone but should not be seen in isolation from events such as the Doha, Qatar, trade talks and the Monterrey, Mexico Finance for Development meeting. I am also particularly delighted over the outcome of our Global Judges Symposium held just prior to the Summit. Strengthening the use, development and awareness of such laws is one of the keys needed to unlock the environment for development agenda.
The International Year of the Mountains, ending in the summit in Bishkek where funds were pledged to clean up old nuclear dumps in Central Asia, was I believe a success. The International Year of Eco Tourism with its summit in Quebec, has given us some good pointers as to how we can match the modern enthusiasm for tourism and leisure with conserving nature and generating income for local people. However we clearly need to urgently re-visit this issue to chart a more robust and effective course.
UNEP this year also published two land-mark publications-the Global Environment Outlook 3 and the Africa Environment Outlook. These have not only contributed to our understanding of the threats and improvements human-kind is creating for life on Earth, but also are building strong networks of researchers and centres in developing countries where environmental and developmental science is flourishing.
Working closely with the Global Environment Facility, the multi billion dollar environment fund, we have launched important new projects on trying to restore damaged and degraded drylands in Africa to unraveling the mysteries of the humble organisms that populate and bring fertility to the soils of tropical countries. We are also partners in the largest ever project undertaken to build the skills of developing nations in the area of genetically modified crops and foods.
At the Global Ministerial Environment Forum in Cartagena, Columbia, countries agreed a new, strengthened UNEP and it is gratifying to see that our funding is on the rise from a wider group of nations. This is a vote for the environment and a vote for UNEP's improved ability to deliver. We have every intention to live up to our new and increasing responsibilities, not only in this 30th year of UNEP's birth but in the months, years and decades to come.

ok cool. Here goes then. Made a big mistake with taking neither Sehwag or Kohli in my team for the first game. Still slowly recovering from that. Ranked 516 now.
ok cool. Here goes then. Made a big mistake with taking neither Sehwag or Kohli in my team for the first game. Still slowly recovering from that. Ranked 516 now.
I'm 281st, but my high point was around 200th
It all sounds great but I'm still 181 points behind my father
Anyway I have 152 modifications left. I'm curious to know people's position compared to how many modifications they have left. That way I can know if the people ahead of me are making better changes or just more changes.
I would like to have more changes left, but I foolishly had Yuvraj as my captain initially, but they realised that #1 he's not in great nick and #2 there are quite a few matches that he is likely not to bat in. So I changed him for Dilshan.
Cliff notes: 281st with 152 modifications left. How about you?
I'm currently in 424th position with exactly 2500 points and I now have 168 modifications left.
I have 8 players in this current Pakistan vs Sri Lanka match so I'm expecting to rise a little after the match.
I have 154 changes left and hopefully will get an improvement in my rank today.
15 for Swann in ODIs too high. Isn't it?

Nicole Kidman and Kerry Washington were among stars who spoke passionately about their causes.
What a room.
It was hard not to feel inspired on Friday afternoon at the Beverly Wilshire Four Seasons, where some of Hollywood's most influential women gathered for Variety's annual Power of Women luncheon. The women at the event, honored for their philanthropic work, included Nicole Kidman, Amy Pascal, Charlize Theron, Kerry Washington, Elizabeth Banks and Jennifer Hudson.
As guests at the Audi-sponsored luncheon dined on halibut and sipped wine, Kidman, honored for her work with UN Women, was the first to take the stage. She began her speech with a small ode to her mother.
"I was raised by a feminist mother. And yes, she said never be frightened about using the 'F' word. So I'm not," she said, to laughter. "She believes in the sisterhood, and so do I. And she planted the seed in me early to speak out against the fact that women are so often treated differently than men."
Kidman then spoke passionately about women's rights. "No matter how long I devote my time to this I still cannot comprehend that one in three girls in their lifetime will be beaten, abused, or raped. It's just an unbelievable statistic," she said.
Pascal, co-chairman of Sony Pictures, was lauded next for her work with Teen Line, a helpline for teenagers dealing with topics ranging from sexuality to depression. "Anyone who tells you women don't help each other is a man," said Pascal, citing her early network of mentors, including her sister Jenny, the late producer Laura Ziskin and Nora Ephron.
Washington spoke of her childhood as she was honored for her work with the President's Committee on the Arts and the Humanities. "When you give a child arts education...you give them a chance to change their lives," she said.
Prior to the luncheon starting, we caught up with Jessica Alba, who held court in a booth full of her Honest Company products. "It's still a small business," she said, but one that's booming: Alba has expanded her eco-friendly line, which works with charitable organization Baby2Baby, to over 50 products in 21 months, including new scented hand and dish soaps.
"With the internet, women now have a new outlet for our business ideas," she said. "A lot more women are becoming entrepreneurs because there is a whole new landscape where our voices can be heard."

England centre Manu Tuilagi scored twice as Leicester Tigers saw off London Wasps with a 27-15 win at Welford Road.
England centre Manu Tuilagi scored twice as Leicester Tigers saw off London Wasps with a 27-15 win at Welford Road.
The first half saw the Tigers lead 14-10 after both sides exchanged converted tries through Manu Tuilagi, Guy Thompson and Niki Goneva after Andy Goode had given Wasps the lead after three minutes with a penalty.
Wasps showed good resilience in the second half but could not prevent Leicester from adding another try through Tuilagi and an Owen Williams penalty before seemingly securing a losing bonus point with a Tommy Bell try, only to concede a fourth try two minutes from time through David Mele.
The game had a fairly low-key opening, with Tuilagi coming closest to going over before being denied by James Short, minutes after Goode had given Wasps the lead from the boot. Following a good rolling maul, Tuilagi touched down on the 20th minute before Williams, after being asked to retake his conversion, improved upon his earlier missed penalty to give Leicester a 7-3 lead.
Wasps looked to have hit back immediately with a try of their own through Will Helu but the TMO ruled that the winger had been held up. There was no doubt over Wasps' try five minutes later when Thompson dashed over the line after excellent play by Ed Jackson to retake the lead, with Goode adding the extras.
The Tigers retook the lead on the stroke of half time as Goneva latched onto Mathew Tait's pass to go over in the corner, with Williams converting again to head into the break 14-10 up.
Eight minutes into the second half, the Tigers extended their lead after stealing the lineout before Tuilagi charged over the line to go 19-10 ahead. With 15 minutes to play, Leicester went 12 points clear after Williams kicked a 40-metre penalty, but Wasps brought themselves back within reach of a losing bonus point after winning possession back before working the ball down the line for Bell to finish.
Leicester went on the hunt for a bonus point of their own but were initially thwarted by more strong defending from Wasps, before eventually denying the visitors a losing bonus point as Mele put the finishing touch to a good drive to seal a 27-15 win.

As Australian free to air TV networks get set to take on Foxtel in a bruising content war TV manufacturers are fighting a battle as to who will have the smartest TVs next year.
Last night LG announced ahead of the CES Show that their 2014 Smart TV's will incorporate a new AllJoyn open source software framework that will significantly improve interoperability between devices.
The AllJoyn, was developed by Qualcomm who is set to reveal a new 64 bit quad core processor at CES that allows smartphones and tablets to easily connect with a TV with content managed on a tablet or smartphone.
The new AllJoyn technology which is set to be picked up by other TV manufacturers is designed "to create a common language that seamlessly connects the Internet and access to content regardless of brand or operating system (OS)," the company said.
The technology will enable seamless multi-device interoperation and content sharing with next-generation LG Smart TVs.
"LG is at the forefront of the device connectivity revolution," stated Richard Choi, LG Electronics smart business centre senior VP. "LG will now enable consumers to more effortlessly connect their networked devices in the home and continues to show a strong commitment to the next generation of convergence technology."
The software framework enables devices and apps to freely communicate with one another without barriers imposed by incompatible operating systems and products.
In addition to simplifying use for Smart TV owners, the technology provides additional opportunities for app developers, the company said.
As an example, LG said the using AllJoyn several smartphones or tablets, each running a completely different OS, can now participate in the same multiplayer game on an LG Smart TV.
In Mini Motor Racing, one person could steer his or her car around the track using the LG Magic Remote while the other players control their vehicles via the LG Gamepad app for mobile devices.
LG said it will continue to develop new features and functions that leverage the new inter-device communication.
"LG sees great potential and huge possibilities in connecting multiple display products with one TV," added Choi. "Facilitating true smart home convergence, LG Smart TVs will now be able to seamlessly connect to devices regardless of brand or OS, a first-of-its-kind milestone in the home entertainment industry."

Franklin County Coroner Marty Leffler has confirmed the deaths of two Christopher residents during an Wednesday night fire that occurred at 210 W. Sylvester St.
The victims were Christopher V. Pyles, 38 and Mary Sue Plumlee, 33, both of 210 W. Sylvester St. in Christopher, he said.
"A 911 call went out at 9:39 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 30 reported by a neighbor that a house was on fire at 210 West Sylvester St. in Christopher," he said. "Christopher Fire Department, Christopher Police and Abbott Ambulance responded to the scene.
"Two known individuals were inside the residence," Leffler said. "A male subject was removed from the living room area and a female resident was found in bed. The male was placed in an Abbott Ambulance unit with no vitals, the female was transported by West Frankfort Fire Department and Ambulance to the Herrin Hospital ER where she was pronounced as deceased upon arrival.
Christopher Fire Chief Charles Lutes said first responders from Coello searched inside the home and first located the man.
"They brought him out and immediately started doing CPR," Lutes said. "They went back in and found the woman and brought her outside."
Autopsies in coordination of the Williamson County and Franklin County coroner's offices are pending. The Illinois State Fire Marshal's office, Christopher Police Department, and Franklin and Willliamson County coroner's offices are investigating the fire.
Lutes said the home is not a total loss. "The house is pretty airtight, which probably saved the house next door," Lutes said. "First responders from Zeigler also assisted, which really helped us a lot. Buckner provided backup for us."
He said the cause of the fire remains under investigation. "A couple of rooms of the house were gutted by the fire," Lutes said. "It appears to be a front room with a divider. The ceiling and attic also sustained damage."
As the investigation continues, the fire chief said he does not believe the fire was suspicious in nature.

What would you trade for Roberto Luongo?
Cam Charron
January 08 2013 03:06AM
via @manbearpiglpu
Following up on some speculation from the week, it seems like the hockey world is bracing for a deal that would send Roberto Luongo to the perpetually embattled Toronto Maple Leafs goaltending rotation, regardless of what Randy Carlyle told the media today. Rob Longley over at the Toronto Sun quotes Luongo as giving Canucks' GM Mike Gillis the "green light" to make a deal. Luongo is protected by a no-trade clause, but it should be done too surprising he would waive it if he still wants to be an NHL starter.
Now, as for Roberto Luongo's owed salary and contract is the elephant in the room. I never understood the meaning of the term "elephant in the room", since if there were an elephant actually in the room, I would freak out and point out to everybody that there is an elephant in the room.
As such, people can't discuss much of Luongo without bringing up the elephant chained to his back. Over the last three years (proprietary statistics alert), Luongo is third among full-time NHL starters with a .929 even strength save percentage (Leafs starters: .916) and fourth among full-time NHL starters with an estimated Wins Above Replacement value of 11.3 (Leafs starters: 0.6).
Few goalies have managed to be as consistent as Luongo over the last several years. In a vacuum, he ought to be the most sought-after piece this whole, extended NHL offseason. He's one of the few goalies that can have an excellent season and you don't have to dismiss it as an outlier. If he looks shaken, stirred, unfocused, battling the puck, or whatever opinion you've forged of him based on a few seconds of TSN or CBC footage, the overarching theme is that he stops the puck just about better than anybody, in a class of elites with Henrik Lundqvist and Pekka Rinne (Tim Thomas dropped out).
That said, let's focus a little on the elephant in the room. Roberto Luongo has a contract that, if you haven't heard, is quite long. According to CapGeek, Luongo has $47.3M left on a deal that runs through 2022. If a team were to buy him out in the summer, he would be on the books until 2031 (which is probably why no team in the right mindset would buy him out). His cap hit, however, is relatively low at $5.3M per, but at 33, that can become an albatross as he approaches his retirement years.
Goalies, as we've found, age rather unpredictably. By the time Luongo hits age 38 and you don't know whether he'll sink or swim, he'll still have five years on his contract. However, his "retirement years" beginning at age 40, if he were to retire, would save paying a hefty cap hit for an old goalie not making particularly a lot of money. Right now he's making $6.7M. In 2019, it will be reduced to $3.4M. In 2020, $1.6M, and in 2021 and 2022, just $1M.
Now, the NHL has added a wrinkle into the new collective bargaining agreement, apparently, essentially by making clubs getting dinged with the money they saved for a back-diving deal. The way Elliotte Friedman wrote it for CBC, in the event the Leafs trade for Luongo before the season starts:
the Maple Leafs will pay Luongo $43,666,000. (I'm not pro-rating this year's lockout-infected salary. Going for the easy math here). The total cap hit for those seven seasons is $37,333,331. The difference is $6,332,669. Divide it by the three unused years in Luongo's contract, and the penalty per season is $2,111,890 -- slightly larger than Vancouver's.
This isn't all bad news for the Leafs, if they were to trade him. For one, the cap benefit penalty to the Canucks increases each year they hold on to Luongo. By my math, if the Canucks were to hold onto him through the summer, their cap benefit penalty increases by about $200K to account for the extra money saved under the deal. It goes up at about $490K per season after that. There's some future financial incentive for the Canucks to rid themselves of the deal before it becomes too much of a burden for future General Manager Manny Malhotra's group in 2019.
The second bit of good news is that the Leafs can recoup that and, if Vancouver asks for too good of a player for Luongo, get the Canucks to pay up to 50% of his salary. Per James Mirtle:
Keeping salary in trades: Teams can have up to three contracts at one time that they are retaining the salary of.— James Mirtle (@mirtle) January 7, 2013
The max teams can keep is 15% of the salary cap. Only 50% of a deal can be kept. A contract can have salary retained in a trade only twice.— James Mirtle (@mirtle) January 7, 2013
Aside from wreaking havoc on HF Boards, this means the Leafs have several ways to be good samaritans and help rid teams of their good players on less-than-stellar contracts. Luongo would be included on that list, but I'm already looking ahead to names like David Krejci, Drew Stafford, Dave Bolland, Nik Hjalmarsson or David Booth becoming available next summer as there's a cap crunch for the naughty teams who spent within the rules of the last CBA.
How to trade for a goaltender?
Is Toronto the ideal landing spot? It makes sense partially for Toronto, provided they don't have to give up too much. The Canucks, to their credit, have done a good job concealing their interest of a central piece of the deal. The two names to get popular recognition? Nazem Kadri and Tyler Bozak.
Yesterday, when drawing up trade proposals, I would have told you that there's no chance the Canucks should get Kadri, but depending on how much salary the Canucks hold onto to get their player, it may make the deal worth it. What's better than an elite goaltender at $5.3M? An elite goaltender at $4.5M, of course.
Jason Botchford has brought up Kadri and Bozak. Few teams requiring a goaltender also have a centreman to offer. I don't really think the Leafs do, but perhaps the Canucks see differently:
The Canucks need help now, which is why Leafs centre Tyler Bozak has long been rumoured as one of the players the Canucks covet. He's a nifty playmaker who can be used on the second power-play unit. But his game has been ripped for defensive deficiencies, and you can't help but wonder how that may play out with head coach Alain Vigneault.
Nazem Kadri is another player labelled as a defensive liability who has been linked to a Luongo deal. The former seventh overall pick hasn't exactly been a great fit with Toronto since he was drafted in 2009. He's a forward who will need to play in the top six to be effective. That's a fairly crowded corner of the Canucks roster heading into this season. But it could change next year if the team were to pass on re-signing Mason Raymond, and if the Canucks bought out David Booth. Teams will have two amnesty buyouts after this season, and with the Canucks needing to re-sign or replace Alex Edler, they may have to use both.
To me, the natural starting point to a deal with the Canucks would be young Cody Franson, a BC-born defenceman who played his junior years with the Vancouver Giants. The Leafs didn't seem to find room for him this season, and their camp will be flogged by the likes of Morgan Rielly, Mike Kostka, Jesse Blacker and Korbinian Holzer, I don't think he'll get too much of a look, particularly after headed to Sweden after spending the lockout as an unsigned restricted free agent. The Canucks need defensive help, particularly an offensive defenceman.
From there, who knows. If the Canucks are indeed higher on Bozak than I am—and if anybody can deploy Bozak in such a way that he turns into a plus-possession forward, it's Canuck coach Alain Vigneault—then I wonder if a deal with those two straight up could accomplish this. If Bozak is a foil and the Canucks are really after Kadri, well, do you make that deal? The team's top forward prospect for four or five good years from an elite goaltender?
The most dangerous thing the Leafs can do is stand pat with this roster, which finished third worst in score-tied puck-possession and fourth worst in save percentage. That's not to say "make a move for the sake of making a move", but is the simple replacement of Luke Schenn for James van Riemsdyk and the addition of Jay McClement enough to fix this team? Not at all. While the prospect cupboard is bare, it's nothing that can't be fixed with two good drafts.
It could be a fairly decent battle. I'd be reluctant to give up Kadri if I'm Brian Burke, and would much prefer the Canucks accept Bozak. The Canucks are going to try to convince teams interested in Luongo that the market isn't soft at all and they're perfectly fine having both Luongo and Cory Schneider playing hockey for them. The goalies themselves won't, so in practice, Mike Gillis only has as much time to work as long as that green light lasts. If Burke sets his price, Bozak, not Kadri, unless the Canucks hold onto a significant block of salary, then the deal won't be made, we'll go with our own NHL-calibre goaltenders, and see you in the summer. I think the cap benefit penalty ought to be ignored. By the time 2019 rolls around, the salary cap could be well over $80M.
Just think, though. In a year or two we may have a resolution to the Luongo conflict one way or another.
Bozak +Komisarek+Franson for Luongo + Ballard Leafs will probably buy Ballard out and canucks get a better contract with Komisarek.
Bozak+Liles for Luongo as well
bozak and frattin + a pick
LUONGO SHOULD NOT BE A LEAF (He Cost The Canucks The Cup when he buckled under that tiny bit of Vancouver Play-off Pressure) Hockey is a Team Sport Vancouver was an Excellent Team all but thier weekest link Luongo when you cant catch a puck in your trapper and the opposing team scores exact same place every single goal (rite above the trapper) and you get pulled for it and your team cant recover form the crushing let down yea and you want that here in Torontonot to mention the Luongo Rule what will he cost the Leafs in Cap money when he retires early
So to answer your question ABSOLUTELY NOTHING not worth it to the Leafs
luongo is on the downside. Slow when he moves side to side.Beached whale when he falls down.Shooters have his number. injury prone. A Long time leaf fan and b.c. resident who pleads with Dave Nonis ....NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
LUONGO SHOULD NOT BE A LEAF (He Cost The Canucks The Cup when he buckled under that tiny bit of Vancouver Play-off Pressure) Hockey is a Team Sport Vancouver was an Excellent Team all but thier weekest link Luongo when you cant catch a puck in your trapper and the opposing team scores exact same place every single goal (rite above the trapper) and you get pulled for it and your team cant recover form the crushing let down yea and you want that here in Torontonot to mention the Luongo Rule what will he cost the Leafs in Cap money when he retires early
So to answer your question ABSOLUTELY NOTHING not worth it to the Leafs
Exactly hockey is a team sport and the Canucks scored 0 goals in game 7 and 8 in the entire series, if it wasn't for luongo Canucks would've lost in 5 or max 6 games....on the side I don't get leaf fans and media, so u can trade seugin and hamilton + a second rounder for no playoffs, but unwilling to do a trade that gets you to the dance, but I guess that explains years of loosing...I do wanna say I'm a Canucks fan and I really do hope we keep luongo....don't bash luongo if your team is not ready for him
The Canucks have to trade bobby Lou. The cap drops after this year. The leafs can offer bozak and a 4th and Vancouver will take it. It's better than having to buy him out at the end of the year and not get anything for him. The leafs can wait, the old goalie market is going to get deep soon Thomas, brizgalov and kipper are all going to be available at the end of the year.
I'de trade Bozak/Kulemin + Kadri/Frattin and or Colborne/Holzer + 3rd or 4th Round Pick (if they chose to just pick just one Prospect then Ill let them have a 2nd Round Pick)
Either that or a simplified deal of Bozak/Kulemin + Kadri + Pick...
Either way, if the Leafs traded Jake Gardiner, then they are in big trouble...

*Your pronation type is determined by the natural motion your feet apply throughout your running gait. When you pronate your foot rolls from either the outer edge, inner edge or not at all. If your foot rolls to the outer edge when you run, you are an underpronator, if it rolls to the inner edge you are a overpronator and if your foot doesn't roll at all you are a neutral or stable runner.

Not for wide calves or wide feet
"I ordered my regular size 7//37, and find this runs TTS. I have narrow-medium calves but the shaft is snug. I have average width feet and the footbed runs on the narrower side. I would not recommend this to those with wide calves or wide feet. The height is the standard 14", the same as all my other fashion boots. The zipper runs up the back and the top of the boot is cut at an angle so that the front is higher than the back (so that when you sit and bend your knees the top of the boot doesn't dig into the back of your knee). The pair I received seemed incredibly worn and the leather around the ankle was already very broken in. The leather was saggy and looks like it is "puddling" around my ankle. I understand this sagging is normal with true leather boots (this happens to my boots used for riding horses) but I hope that these won't sag too much more in the ankle area down the road. I love the two-tone look of these boots but I think sturdier boots could be had for the same price point in another brand."

Skip to comments.Barack Obama Sighting, Hawaii 1980
Posted on 11/30/2009 7:43:24 PM PST by syc1959
A friend of mine sent me this story of his time in the Marine Corps. Read through to the end, its a shocker.
What strikes me most is what he said as to where he grew up: Indonesia. He told me he wanted to be President of the US someday. I remember lightly smiling and commenting that maybe by the time he gets to be 40 or so, America will be ready for a Black man to be President and I wished him luck. We spoke of the racial tensions I saw at home while growing up and I asked him if he ever saw that overseas or since he returned back to Hawaii. I dont remember his answer, but we spoke more of his time overseas and his thoughts on life and philosophy of government. He made some strange comments to me, it was obvious he never set foot for any time in the continental United States and I told him he better realize that he is making judgments about the United States when he himself never actually lived there. I told him, Hawaii aint the United States!
He also told me something that I never forgot, for it caused me to do some other things in an effort to be nice to him and possibly a favor. We spoke of where I had been and the world as I saw it. I told him I had been to Africa , Mombassa specifically, and he said to me abruptly, I was born there. I told him he is not eligible to be president if that was true, but I remembered he said his mom was an American, so, maybe it was okay.
(Excerpt) Read more at nygoe.wordpress.com ...
How is it that his head is most definitely darker at what looks to be the collar line?
You mad at me?
That's funny.
don't flame me, I just don't see it. He looks black to me.
Maybe I have been hard programmed over the years by the PC crowd. lOL
LorenC! You're back!
Yes she did.
It seems he and his mother were quite secretive. I'm surprise no one in the MSM has shown more curiosity...
It's a few dots. Get enough dots and you have a picture! I pinged you because it's interesting. The accounts of people knowing Obama - or knowing of him are few and far between... so we have a mystery. That's seductive.
naw...no flammage here. I just don't consider him to be very dark skinned (i.e. "black"). IMO, he's clearly light skinned and multi-racial (i.e. "mulatto").
Just two different perspectives.
Apparently, he tan's easily. That is, his face and neck are exposed to the sun far more than the rest of him (going off that pic).
Weird, Huh?
and yet he appears to be uniformly dark in this 1977 image:
guess he not only faded, but his body shrunk as he aged.
Well, not really if you think about it.
It's where the term "farmer's" tan comes from. Someone who gets tanned on their arms [or lower legs] (but not the trunk of their body) because they're out in the sun in a t-shirt.
Barry, due to his "profession" and coming from the climes of Chicago and D.C. more than likely wouldn't have gone shirtless (or even short sleeved shirt) too often. Thus, only from his neck up got the sun exposure resulting in the tan that's noticeable over his very lite skinned body (trunk).
Remove the regular exposure to the sun, and his skin returns back to the much lighter shade we see in his early childhood pics as well as the contrast in the other pic of him (on the beach in HI?) recently.
Everything I've read, but don't ask for links I don't have 'em, the Obummer was always claiming he wanted to be King as a young man, and claiming descent from a royal line. In that regard, he does run his presidency more like a monarchy (and not a constitutional monarchy either)! His way or the highway. Wish with all my heart there was actual corroboration of all of this.
hmmmm.... great thought process. I will look at his photo's.
Before you get too far along with the media, my suggestion would be that you consider using hypnosis in a taped session to help confirm what you remember and to recover additional details that you might be able to corroborate.
Then, when you are confident in your recollections you could undergo an independent lie detector test. Lie detectors aren't admissible in court, but they can go a long way with publishers and other audiences in hearsay situations.
It won't "prove" anything but will provide support to your recollections that the public understands. Naysayers will inevitably ask "Did he take a lie detector test?" And you could say "Yes, I volunteered to take one and passed!"
You might then have a story (with some pictures) that you could take to the tabloids if you wanted to. Some of them would print is as is, but with hypnosis and a lie detector as backup it might be worth more and also encourage others to come forward.
Shoe polish?
I dont care about the specifics of his grqandmother as far as village or city, all I know is the accounts were from her and the translatedlanguage indicates she either meant he is a son by spirit or actuality
Since I heard him say Mombassa, I believe Mombassa. If Grandma wants to call him a son of the tribe/village, Mombassa might be close enough for her
This type of argument is useless, we are guessing her intent.
I prefer to quote the source, "I WAS BORN THERE"
Doh! Bad poster! lol(meekly)
He and the boy to his left were photoshopped into this picture. Their jersey's are different than everyone else's.
wanted to add something here
the grandmother comments were known long before October
I heard of them in early summer, I just couldn't get anyone to send me a valid link! The story was repeated so many times yet there was no source to verify it.
And I didn't post anything here because I just didn't think it was going to add to the equation. There was enough out there that should have sunk him but the mainstream media never took any interest in, and that includes FOX
Sad, they demanded to know about Bush's bicuspids but not about Barry's Birth
So you're the one that tipped him off to the fact that he would need to have his B.C. amended. All this time, I thought it was Axlerod.
It's all your fault.
...hanging my head...
My entertainment is seeing the country slowly disillusioned with Hope and Change thinking :."How could this happen?" My response? "How could it not?"
Lucy, thanks for the ping.
Good evening RaceBannon. I believe that an account like yours could certainly be true.
I myseld, Lucas Daniel Smith, was in Mombasa Kenya in February 2009. I gained entry to Coast Province General Hospital in Mombasa and was able to procure a certified copy of Barack Obama II's birth certificate.
I'm interested in hearing more of your account, anything that you can think of.
Thank you.

Please pardon my multiple (3 times) post of the same post. It was accidental. I clicked on "Post" but nothing happened for a close to a minute so I clicked again. I will be more careful with my postings form here on out.
Thank you.
When it comes to the translation of what Obama's Kenyan grandmother said on video, everyone here on this forum is just going off of what they've read on the Internet to be the "correct" translation.
I know that Barack Obama II was born in Mombasa. However, I don't speak Swahili, so I can't tell you what the Grandmother said. But given that Barack II was born in Mombasa, I lean towards her saying that he was born in Kenya or even specifically Mombasa.
In other countries it would be acceptable for a person of Barack's color to claim that they are "white."
In the USA it's "cool" to be black so everyone with even a little black in their physical characteristics claims that they are BLACK her in the USA. Most whites in the USA view it the same, a little black is all black.
I have traveled the Caribbean and Africa. Barack Obama is in no case a "black man". Barack is a guy that wants to be a "black guy".
I used to be in the Navy, Race. You know the difference between a fairy tale and a sea story? A fairy tale begins "Once upon a time . . . . . ". A sea story begins "Now this ain't no sh&t!" Methinks we have a sea story, here, masquerading as a college assignment.
Are you serious??
No, but I like RaceBannon!!!
Tiger Woods and the Crashers are more important!!!

Our purpose is to create an institutional space for research, education, and community outreach. Technologies within its purview span the life sciences industries and include drug development, bioinformatics, neuroscience, and electromedical equipment and medical devices; of special interest are technologies spanning traditional biology, medicine, mathematics, electrical engineering, and computing.
In addition, the institute deploys its specialized expertise in entrepreneurship, business development, bioethics and social implications, economic development, and public policy as these pertain to the above technologies.
The objectives of the Institute are four-fold:
Foster community dialog: We are positioning the BBTI to be an important resource for interaction among its stakeholders -- the place to go to understand what is happening now, what will happen in the future, and why.
Create educational opportunities: We are developing a curriculum at UW Bothell that links the campus' educational mission with the needs of the biotechnology and biomedical technology communities. This curriculum will prepare students for careers in the life sciences industries, provide opportunities for students to learn about careers in these industries, and offer continuing education opportunities to the biotechnology and biomedical technology community.
Strengthen research connections: BBTI research goals are by nature complementary to those of industry. By collaborating in research at UW Bothell through BBTI, our partners can benefit from knowledge and skills that might not be available to them in-house. We also offer our expertise to government agencies, industry associations, and other organizations that seek advice on business and economic development, regulation, and other public policy issues related to the life sciences industries.
Enhance public understanding: The BBTI is a neutral space for citizens to learn about new technologies and discuss their implications for the local community and beyond. Through public forums, conferences, symposia, and lectures, citizens will have the opportunity to learn first-hand about the latest scientific advances and technological trends, ethical and social controversies, and directions in law and public policy. A citizenry informed in the latest technologies and their applications is a citizenry empowered to be effective participants in decisions that affect their families, community and livelihoods.
Nine out of 10 of UW Bothell students are from the state of Washington.

What's good for corporations is not always good for the country, its people, or the capitalist system we allegedly defend; it's time we make the distinctions. A little more than two years after the 2008 financial crisis, corporate profits were hitting record highs and our gross domestic product was growing again.
Today, our nation's fiscal health depends more on increased consumption than on the production of goods and services. But average real wages for most workers have stagnated or fallen over the last thirty-five years, and good jobs are disappearing. Just look at the Commerce Department's latest GDP report, which shows corporate profits have hit their highest percentage of GDP on record at the same time as total wages have fallen to a record low. Without employment or income, what's the key to our economic recovery?
