Heppner (Or.); Heppner Coordinating Council (City of Heppner (Or.), June , 1999)[more][less]
Abstract: A decade ago [prior to 1999], the Heppner Economic Development Corporation (HEDC) was founded to guide job maintenance and expansion in the community. In September of 1990, a Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (SWOT) analysis was completed. One of its recommendations was that HEDC develop a strategic plan to plot the course to Heppner's future. Representatives from across the community were invited to form a Community Response Team which then went on to develop the original strategic plan entitled Vision 2000 Goals and Strategies. Upon completion of the Heppner Strategic Plan, the community response team renamed themselves "Heppner Coordinating Council" or HCC for short. Members represent a variety of economic and social community groups and interested individuals that share a common mission of building the economic health, unity, and progress of the Heppner area. One of the main duties of HCC is to regularly update the strategic plan and revise it as needed. Enough changes have occurred within the community and the region that a revision is now appropriate.

Tours to Israel are departing as usual, despite some missiles that have landed in or near tourist areas. But tour operators are fielding calls from concerned relatives and travelers, and some say bookings have slowed.
Bell Wholesale Travel of Northbrook, Ill., had five groups in Israel Monday, founder Madeleine Cohen says. "We've been in business for 30 years and we would never, ever jeopardize our customers," she says. "But I have had a lot of calls from family members ... 'Is my mom OK?' "
Pilgrim Tours president David Nyce also has clients in Israel and says "the groups that came back (last) weekend didn't even know what was going on" regarding violence in the Gaza Strip and missiles aimed at northern areas. He says the region's instability "does affect our business, and I think it affects everyone's business, if they're honest with you. ... Our advance bookings are on hold ... things are slowing down." He said he thinks people are watching and waiting to see what happens in Israel, Iran and Syria before making new plans to travel to the region.
Late Monday, the Israel Ministry of Tourism issued a "Behind the Headlines" update via its New York PR agency. It said rockets "have been fired from the Palestinians' Gaza Strip into southern Israel. A majority of the rockets have been brought down by Israel's Iron Dome anti-missile system, but some have landed in towns and cities in a quite large area .... Most of the areas the rockets have reached are off the usual tourist routes, but a few have been aimed toward Tel Aviv. Most of the rockets launched toward Tel Aviv were deflected by the Iron Dome. No tourists have been involved in any incidents."
The message said that about 20 flights are operating nonstop daily to Israel from Canada and the USA and that "conditions in most of Israel are normal — with children going to school, people shopping, going to restaurants, going to the beach, and sightseeing. There are currently more than 100,000 tourists vacationing in Israel and there are no signs whatsoever that visitors are cutting their trips short." The missive concluded: "If we felt it was inappropriate for you to come now, we would ask you not to."
The U.S. Embassy in Tel Aviv took a more grim stance Monday, issuing an alert that read, in part: "U.S. citizens are encouraged to exercise caution and take appropriate measures to ensure their safety and security in light of the escalating level of violence in Gaza and Israel. U.S. citizens should pay close attention to their surroundings and news reports, and follow the civil defense guidance provided by the Home Front Command. The Government of Israel's Home Front Command website provides information on how to choose a secure space or room in a home or apartment."
Since August, the U.S. State Department has had a travel warning for Israel, the West Bank and Gaza in effect. It urges caution and avoidance of the Gaza Strip, but does not suggest Americans avoid all travel to Israel.
Tour operator Madeleine Cohen says her Israel clients mainly are evangelical Christians for whom the tours "are not vacations ... it's a trip of faith. In 30 years, I have never canceled a trip to Israel. We have groups leaving (for Israel) all the time."
Pilgrim Tours' David Nyce says airlines are not giving refunds or waiving change fees for Israel, nor are hotels. "We don't want to say everything is normal," he says. "I can understand people being apprehensive." To go or not to go to Israel "is strictly up to the individual," he adds.
Below his Morgantown, Pa., firm's website descriptions of Israel tours is a caveat: "Please do not make a reservation with us based on the hopes of a calm future."

Skip to comments.Bowe Bergdahl Is All of Us
Posted on 06/12/2014 2:30:52 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet
Was He Worth It? blared the cover of Time magazine, as if that should be the question Americans ask in light of the release of Bowe Bergdahl after five years of brutal captivity by the Taliban.
No, the question we should be asking is a version of the one Pope Francis made famous in a different context: Who Are We To Judge?
Who are we, in the safety of our civilian homes, to judge whether an American soldier captured overseas is worthy of rescue? Who are we to decide whether, somehow, the fact that he was imprisoned for so many years was his fault?
The American publics reaction to the Bergdahl swap is both stunning and dismaying. Yes, the White House could have handled this more deftly, should have informed those members of Congress who see it as their right to know such things, should have anticipated questions about the constitutionality of releasing prisoners from detention in Guantanamo Bay, and after all these years of ruthless Republican attacks, should have done more to try to minimize the potential damage in advance.
But were talking optics here, and courtesies, which are important but not fundamental. Whats fundamental should be the rock-solid belief that American soldiers are to be rescued without judgment, that they should be brought home and dealt with on our soil, not the enemys, whatever the circumstances. We redeem our captives.
Thats what Israel does. The contrast between the Israeli publics reaction to even more lopsided deals with terrorists and whats occurred here says a lot about who we are and what is missing in our collective sense of self.
This is, in part, because Israel has a military in which most of its citizens participate. America does not.
The obvious comparison with Bergdahl is Gilad Shalit, the Israel Defense Forces soldier also held for five years by a terrorist organization, whose release in 2011 in exchange for more than 1,000 really bad guys set off waves of anguished debate in Israel. The debate, however, was about the deal. It wasnt about whether the State of Israel should redeem Shalit. And even as the debate raged in the political sphere, 78% of the public supported Shalits freedom in varying degrees, whereas a plurality of Americans told one poll that the prisoner exchange for Bergdahl was the wrong thing to do. Period.
Why? As the Forward said in an editorial at the time, Shalit was everyones son. Nearly everyone in Israel participates in the military, and so nearly every mother and father could identify with Shalits long-suffering, loudly determined parents.
Yes, Shalit was defending his homeland while Bergdahl was fighting in a faraway land for a confusing, ill-defined reason. But its very possible that if we had compulsory military and community service, if every member of Congress and every leader in the White House with an 18-year-old could potentially see his or her child off to war, wed be in a lot fewer confusing, ill-defined military campaigns.
And we would have a vehicle to forge national identity, which we desperately need in our increasingly atomized, narcissistic American culture. Mark Silk, a professor of religion at Trinity College, in a blog post for Religion News Service, noted the long, ignoble tradition in this country of designating certain people or groups un-American immigrants in the 19th century, leftists in the 20th century, Muslims in our century. Now even Bowe Bergdahl, home-schooled in Idaho, as all-American as one can get or so we thought is considered not American enough to be rescued.
As the conservative commentator Ann Coulter had the nerve to ask: Why are we doing anything to get this guy back? Hes ashamed to be an American. As Silk explained, The metaphysics of Americanism say that we get back our own only when they deserve it. If they dont deserve it, theyre not our own.
But those who voluntarily don American military uniforms are our own. They should not be judged, nor should they be abandoned.
No, and AFAIK Shalit never converted to Islam either.
How about his father, mother and commander-in-chief? [chuckle]
No, the question we should be asking is a version of the one Pope Francis made famous in a different context: Who Are We To Judge?
Did he really experience "brutal" captivity?"
Was he worth 14 lives lost attempting to rescue him?
Where was the press during those five years?
Should we depend upon the MSM and White House for information, or his colleagues and those with direct knowledge?
It is difficult to judge anything with the lack of information, and the smoke and fog of spin. And, it is difficult to judge with no real source of information on what happened, similar to Benghazi and other scandals.
So, we wait.
We are NOT Bowe and his family....never have or never will be!! IDIOTS!!
Was he worth it is not the issue, it is a distraction.
First, negotiating with terrorists is a horrible idea and never should be done.
Second, The five terrorist we released should never have been released under any circumstances .They should have been executed or spent their lives in jail.
Third, there a many detainees in Gitmo that could have been exchanged for that do not present the risk the five do.
Bergdahl is a traitor. So is the man who swapped him for 5 Islamicist fellow travelers.
No, we are not.
What a pile of pap. The real question is not should we have taken him back, it's whether we should have payed the price we did. The answer to that is no.
This is a terrible comparison. Israel's lopsided prisoner exchanges are probably tied to two things that aren't a factor in the U.S.:
1. Israel has compulsory military service for its citizens. Even worse, they have exemptions for large segments of the population -- including a disproportionate number of those who have lived in settlements that have been the subject of so much contention over there. If the Israeli government didn't move mountains to recover every prisoner held by the Palestinians, the country would probably collapse.
2. Israel is a collectivist, Marxist country in many respects. It is so different from the U.S. that it really shouldn't be compared to us here. A more appropriate comparison would be to European countries with leftist parliamentary governments. Those countries would probably act the same way as Israel when it comes to "prisoner exchanges" like this.
Good question. I'm prior military, lost several close friends in the war on terror, with my son active duty, and my father a former POW. I'd say that gives me the right to an informed opinion on a deserter. Many (most?) of us on FR are prior military or have close relatives in the service. We judge because we have been there - without desertion, without treason, and without unnecessarily endangering our units.
We do not raise our kids with the idea that all moral choices are equally valid, from heroism and fidelity to treason and homosexuality. We raise our kids with values, for most of us biblical values, and Bergdahl's conduct does not measure up to what we ourselves did when we were bored with duty, or when we were unsure about a leadership decision. Bergdahl's conduct does not measure up to what we would want our children and grandchildren to recognize as acceptable.
We are humans, endowed by God with a sense of right and wrong, and tasked by God with teaching our children the difference between good and evil. That gives us the right and the duty to judge reprehensible conduct.
American soldier captured
American soldier deserted (fixed)
Great post, Sir.
The main problem I see with this editorial is that it engages the matter on the ground that The Regime has chosen. I listened to SecDef Hagel testifying before the Armed Services Committee yesterday. As each Democrat began questioning, the opening remark related to never leaving a soldier behind. It was so noticeable, that I began to comment "DRINK!!" on the Live Thread when I heard it.
I believe we simply let that alone. There is nothing to be gained, at this point, by arguing the merits of whether or not Bergdahl was worthy. That time WILL come. If we have that discussion now, we are taking the bait that The Regime has thrown out in order to diffuse the prime issue that we KNOW to be of urgent concern.
How did the five Taliban go from being on the "never release" list to a year's all expense sojourn in Qatar? THAT is the question that must be answered first.
Along with the way that Obama broke a law he had signed in order to make the swap.
NONE is above the law, or all are.
"...should have informed those members of Congress who see it as their right to know such things..."
See it as their right? It's a law.
And Israel was foolish to trade 1,000 terrorists for a single soldier. That puts all the power in the hands of a kidnapper - I kidnap one of your guys, you give me 1,000 people back. Who in their right mind would agree to that deal?
I don't think this sleeper jihadist is me. I've never deserted, nor have I ever been a moslem idiot.
Gilad was actively abducted.
Bowe walked off.
Hmm... Writer misses that fact.
Writer needs to go offer themselves as a hostage, see what happens.

Are suggesting that the CIC has ever been anything else?
Is that to me or someone else?
Who wrote this sh*t?
Gene from new Jersey?
The heavily drugged and mentally challenged editors at "The Jewish Daily Forward".
The editors were so brave to write it that they won't put their names to it.
He is not me.
Very good post. (and thank you for your service)
Your point about moral relativism (one choice is as good as another, they are all personal and for one person to decide whether it is good or not) is spot on.
We are endowed by God with a sense of right and wrong, and when we deviate from that for our own purposes, it is weakness and sometimes evil.
I went into a Universalist "church" once for a craft fair, and there were a lot of things indicating activities for children. A sign, aimed at teenagers said "Nobody can tell you what is right and wrong. That is for you to decide, and only you."
I looked at it, and turned it over and thought "My God. What a thing to tell a child!"
We had to get him back to try, and subsequently, kill him for treason.
Private Eddie Slovik.
We shouldn't judge? That is all the libs do. If they didn't judge there would be no way for them to "feel" superior.
When I was in Israel I met a surprising number of young people who avoided military service due to religious reasons. One woman made it sound like that 100% service requirement was more like a PR campaign for outsiders than a fact of life.
Ping to post 19.
Poster doesn't seem to know who posted posts 1 and 2, so he posted this to me instead.
I wonder if Israel would have swapped Hitler, Himmler,Goebbels,Hess for one prisoner?
These left-wing newsprint, TV and internet rags don't even need instructions from on high....they know exactly what to do and how to do it. They work in tandem as the designated arm of the Demonrat Party and of the Obama thugocracy.
Across the country this left-wing media dutifully heeds the call when its master's trumpet sounds. Today, the mission is to whitewash the Bergdahl treason. The propaganda effort may be overt or subtle, but it will be massive. The above article is but one example.
Always remember, the enemies of freedom are within our gates...and busily practicing their craft on us, i.e., media spin, dissimulation, deception, subversion, lying and distortion of facts.
The Forward is a legendary name in American journalism and a revered institution in American Jewish life. Launched as a Yiddish-language daily newspaper on April 22, 1897, the Forward entered the din of New York's immigrant press as a defender of trade unionism and moderate, democratic socialism."
This is a communist website, masquerading as a Jewish one — with a name like "Forward" and their own admission. So this article shouldn't be a surprise...
"We are all Bowe Bergdahl now...". Embrace the shame, America. /s
With this Iraq fiasco, I wonder what trick Zer0 will use to distract us from his ineptness. Maybe he will pull Malaysian Flight 370 out of the hat with all the passengers alive and make the world so thankful to der Zer0.
Haqqani commander is quoted as saying Bergdahl DID NOT convert to Islam.
Also the "military source" that initially reported the conversion, also reported at the same time that it was part of Bergdahl's plan to gain an opportunity to escape. He gained his guards trust until he was rewarded with enough freedom to slip away from them. He was captured three days later.
Great post!
My Dad flew in 3 wars, dying in the third. I've flown combat over Iraq and did a ground tour in Afghanistan. My SIL did 2 tours in Marine Infantry in Fallujah. My daughter did a tour in Iraq with the Marines. My son has done 2 tours, one in Iraq and one in Afghanistan. Both of my nieces are married to men who have done tours in Iraq. My only nephew is in Afghanistan now.
So yeah, I feel free to judge someone whose behavior was totally unacceptable. I feel free to say we could have left him to die in Afghanistan because anyone who deserts is...well, a DESERTER. The penalty for that can be death.
And when I was in Afghanistan in 2007, I never met ANYONE who didn't understand what might happen if you fell into the hands of the enemy. None of us sought it out. Most of us planned to keep a few rounds left to shoot ourselves if we were about to be captured, per Kipling:
"When you're wounded and left on Afghanistan's plains,
And the women come out to cut up what remains,
Jest roll to your rifle and blow out your brains
An' go to your Gawd like a soldier."
And if Bergdahl wanted to 'go to his Gawd like a deserter', then I'm willing to let him.
Lets put this in perspective. I have no problem with sending in the special forces extraction team to get anybody back. Trading 5 high value terrorists for them is a different story. Very freaking different.
Lovely sources. Never mind Haqqani taqiyyah.
2 for 2--you're batting 1.000!

Africa source of growth, focus of interest for international emissions offset market05/
Nairobi, 5 March 2010 - Five hundred were expected but more than 1,000 private and public sector participants from Africa and elsewhere turned out for the second Africa Carbon Forum, all hoping to tap the potential of greenhouse gas emission offset projects on the continent.Africa accounts for just under two percent of the 2,060-plus registered clean development mechanism (CDM) projects in 63 countries worldwide. However, the continent has seen a strong growth trend in the past few years. There are now 122 CDM projects in Africa that are either registered or in the pipeline for validation or registration. This up from 116 in 2009, 75 in 2008 and just 42 in 2007."The offset project landscape is changing. Before when we talked about Africa it was all about the need to raise capacity and raise awareness about the potential for offset projects in Africa. Now we see a higher level of understanding, we see real eagerness to get involved, and plenty of business being conducted. It's obvious the capacity-building is paying off and the message is getting out," said John Kilani of the UNFCCC secretariat on behalf of the five UN organizations and two multilateral development banks that make up the Nairobi Framework, an initiative aimed at extending the benefits of the CDM, especially in Africa.Launched in November 2006 by then Secretary-General Kofi Annan, the Nairobi Framework's partners now include the United Nations Development Programme, United Nations Environment Programme, the World Bank, United Nations Institute for Training and Research, United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, the African Development Bank and the UNFCCC secretariat."There is a growing number of projects in Africa and a growing number of countries hosting projects. What's more, some project developers are even prepared to pay a premium for offset credits originating from Africa, no doubt because they are confident in the long-term growth prospects for CDM on the continent," said Mr. Kilani, who is Director of the secretariat's Sustainable Development Mechanisms programme.Under the CDM, projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and contribute to sustainable development can earn saleable certified emission reduction (CER) credits. These CERs can be used for compliance under the Kyoto Protocol."Africa Carbon Forum 2010 has been a serious and businesslike meeting of people with African emissions reduction projects and people who want to invest in them. Africa's slow start in the CDM business seems now to have been more about finding the right ways to structure projects in the sectors that are Africa's national specialities than about a fundamental incompatibility," said Henry Derwent, President and CEO of the International Emissions Trading Association, the Nairobi Framework's private sector partner in holding the three-day Forum."Investors in compliance and voluntary markets alike are seriously interested in good quality African emissions reduction projects, to balance their portfolios and meet their climate change strategies. Africa Carbon Forum has helped them and project promoters alike," Mr. Derwent said.One of the new developments under the CDM is the option to establish so-called programmes of CDM activities, which allows for many individual project activities to be put together under a single programme, to reduce transaction costs and increase efficiency of implementation."Programmatic CDM is clearly seen as a very attractive option by African countries and several programmes are under development in a handful of countries; but, it is also clear from the discussions that to make it a success there is a need for targeted capacity-building, both for DNAs and project developers," said John Christensen from the United Nations Environment Programme.For two days prior to the carbon forum, some 85 delegates representing 44 African countries met in Nairobi to share their experiences and ideas on how to increase CDM projects on the continent. These CDM Designated National Authorities (DNAs) are responsible for, among other things, laying the policy groundwork for CDM in their countries and for attesting to the sustainable development benefits of each project prior to registration.The DNA Forum was established by the CDM Executive Board in 2006 to help build national and regional capacity. This most recent meeting of African members of the DNA Forum focused on overcoming barriers to CDM growth; how to mobilize resources for CDM; Africa-friendly methodologies and programmes of multiple CDM project activities; and raising capacity of CDM stakeholders, to name a few topics.Countries are eager to scale up and extend the benefits of the CDM to more countries. Gatherings like the all-Africa Carbon Forum, which bring together project developers, buyers, service providers, financial institutions, national CDM representatives and other private and public sector stakeholders, are an important part of that effort. Plans are being made now for a third Africa Carbon Forum, to be held in March 2011 in Morocco.Notes to Editors:Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)There are currently more than 2,060 registered CDM projects in 63 developing countries, and about another 2,200 projects in the project validation/registration pipeline. The projects registered to date are expected to generate more than 1.7 billion certified emission reductions (CERs) by the time the first commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol ends in 2012, each equivalent to one tonne of carbon dioxide.

Disappointing for Dr Scholls
"I thought these would be dreamy on my feet since they are Dr Scholls, but not the case. They were extremely stiff and structured and the leather was very hard and rubbed on my feet so fast, I didn't even want to take 2 steps in them. I give them 2 stars for style, b/c they're cute and they may be comfy for someone else, but I had to return them."

I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite team in the NFL.
BTW, Id be surprised if Rhodes is there at 19, nevermind the 2nd round. We'd be stupid not to take him at 19 unless theres a way better BPA that slides.
"Behold, the tailgate party. The pinnacle of human achievement. Since the dawn of parking lots, man has sought to fill his gut with food and alcohol in anticipation of watching others exercise."
- Homer J. Simpson
The Falcons do fit the mold of a team that would likely trade up. But, I have a hard time believing pre draft rumors like this. Putting your cards on the table like that this far before the draft is a silly thing to do.
I don't know if their is any truth to it but I'd do that trade in a heart beat.
Round 1 (30)
Round 2(49)
Round 2 (60)
Then our normal 3-7 picks.
I would take it. This year there seems to be a lot of value that can be had later on in the draft, guys that were productive in college.
Micha Hyde or Kayvon Webster are two late round guys who come to mind.

A new mall, called SM Seaside City Cebu will be one of the first developments in the master plan of SM Properties for their 304,100 sq. m. site, which stretches from the northern part of the South Road Properties (SRP) to the sea, which is set to open on the 3rd quarter of 2014. This 4-storey mall, designed by Miami-based architectural firm Arquitectonica, will have a gross floor area of 292,043 sqm, complete with an IMAX theatre, an ice skating rink, an 18-lane bowling center, and a roof garden. It is set to be the 4th largest Mall in the world. There will also be a 100m Viewing Tower which will offer panoramic views of Cebu. The proposed mall is quite a departure from the usual SM Mall designs, circular layout and more green/open areas.
And we thought SM will never get tired of their (tried and tested) monotonous boxes.

By Lou SanseveroFerron
As a member of the Utah Department of Workforce Services Southeast Regional Council I, along with other council members, attend quarterly council meetings in which we discuss workforce/economic issues and strategies affecting southeastern Utah. At this quarter's meeting we had a representative from a major national builder/contractor and a member of the Utah legislature address us.
As usual, after his presentation about the company and projects here in southeastern Utah, the floor was opened for question and answers. The council members asked what problems the employer was having in the local area, how well the skill sets of local workers matched the needs of the employer, and what we could do to better meet the present and future needs of this and other employers in our area; his answer sickened me. He related that, for the most part, the skill sets of our local workforce met their needs, finding housing for imported workers was a problem, and that they had to import workers because they were having trouble filling positions with local workers because the company has a zero tolerance policy where drugs were concerned. He went on to relate that recently out of 20 job applicants that were drug tested only two passed and that this was not an unusual occurrence in this area. Two out of 20 passed, think about that...90 percent failed.
While drug use isn't exclusively a regional problem it does appear to be a more major problem in southeastern Utah than we've previously realized or, perhaps more aptly phrased, want to realize. At this same quarterly meeting we were told by the member of the state legislature that the state unemployment trust fund is within months of going bankrupt.
This paradox is the impetus for this letter to the editor...the fact that employers are "importing" workers to fill their local labor pools while, at the same time local potential employees are going unemployed because they can't pass drug tests.
More than 50 years ago the United States government declared a "war on drugs"; a war that we are still fighting (and losing) today with no end in sight, why? I believe one reason we haven't won the war is because we have been treating the problem of illicit drug use as a supply driven problem, spending billions over the years to interdict the supply when, in reality, it is a demand driven problem...reduced to its most simplistic terms, if there wasn't a demand there wouldn't be a supply. I know, I know, pseudo-intellectuals, bleeding heart liberals, psychologists, and cynical politicians will say "Lou, you're being too simplistic. The problem is way more complicated than that."
They would then go on to tell me all the social, physiological, and psychological causes for drug use and, while I can agree that there are social, physiological, and psychological components to the problem, I would argue that the problem will respond to a basic economic truth...no one produces any good or service except in response to a demand for that good or service and supply merely controls the price.
The more removed we get from placing personal responsibility on individuals the more entitlements we have to enact to support them. So here's a suggested solution to the paradox I've described which I'd like to present to you and our local, state, and national leaders.
What if, instead of supporting dependencies in the name of misguided compassion, we demand individuals be self-disciplined. What if, instead of subsidizing those individuals who can't find employment because of drug use we penalize them for it. What if, in order to qualify for unemployment assistance (or any "entitlement" programs [food stamps, TANIF, welfare, etc.]), you have to pass a stringent, well managed drug test...fail the test, no assistance.
I think such a solution could be a step towards resolving at least these aspects of the problems we are facing; (1) it could help reduce the demand portion of the drug problem equation (2) it could help reduce a portion of the unemployment paradox I've described and (3) it could help bolster the local economy by putting more locals back to work as productive citizens, and off the "entitlement" and unemployment rolls, as they become able to pass pre-employment drug tests.
Additionally, I believe that most crime can be attributed, either directly or indirectly, to illicit drug use (both illegal use of controlled substances or abuse of prescription drugs) and that a reduction in drug use will cause a corresponding reduction in law enforcement costs.
In this year of mid-term elections incumbents are, at every opportunity, asking us for "another chance" to "get things right", explaining away their past failures, and promising to return power to the people, strengthen states rights, and resolve the economic failures of the past...here is our opportunity to tell them to put their "money where their mouths are".
Let's give them the next four months, until the November mid-terms, to enact a common sense solution, such as this one, to this problem or face being fired...we don't want to hear any excuses; do it or you're gone...period. This letter in itself isn't going to get that done...believe it or not, not everybody reads the Emery County Progress and most, like state and national lawmakers won't see this letter, so I'd like you to write your legislators and suggest this, or a solution of your own design, to them and encourage your friends and families to write to their legislators in other jurisdictions and make the same demand with the same penalty for failure to resolve this problem.
Remember, the very same long serving, professional politicians presently in office are the very people who, either through their actions or in-actions, have caused every one of the social and economic problems we are now facing and, in spite of their protestations to the contrary, they are not likely to willingly change the behaviors that have marked their tenures.
Your vote in November can change the future...it can return Constitutional government to us, restore the Republic, restore our energy independence, and begin to resolve our economic problems.

The Anti-Gang Initiative was designed to help law enforcement agencies address gang-related violence, drug problems, and fear in their cities and neighborhoods.
In 1996, the COPS Office identified 15 police departments across the nation as having significant gang problems in their jurisdictions. COPS provided funding to these jurisdictions to help them acquire the necessary resources to implement community policing strategies and problem-solving practices to address gang-related issues. Under this initiative, departments developed innovative programs and strategies that included building partnerships with the community, schools, social service agencies, and local city agencies; using geographic information systems to identify gang hotspots; enforcing curfew and truancy regulations; and using such civil remedies as code enforcement and civil abatement. Funding was also provided to allow the 15 agencies to evaluate the effectiveness of the strategies employed under the grant.
The Anti-Gang Initiative was announced in June 1996. The grants were for a 1-year period, with no-cost extensions provided on a case-by-case basis.
A total of $11 million was available under the Anti-Gang Initiative. Each site was eligible to receive $500,000 to $1 million, based on the city's population level. A local cash match was not required under this program, but each department was encouraged to provide an in-kind match.
COPS funded sites in Phoenix, AZ; Los Angeles, CA; Oakland, CA; Orange County, CA; Miami, FL; Chicago, IL; Indianapolis, IN; Boston, MA; Detroit, MI; Kansas City, MO; St. Louis, MO; Jersey City, NJ; Austin, TX; Dallas, TX; and Salt Lake City, UT.

Leafs Draft Tyler Biggs 22nd, Stuart Percy 25th
Pension Plan Puppets
June 25 2011 11:06AM
The Toronto Maple Leafs spent the first day of the draft on a couple of solid if unspectacular draft picks. They did make a move to grab a player that they coveted in the bruising Tyler Biggs in the 22nd slot from the US National Team Development Program. The Leafs moved the 30th (from Boston) and 39th (their own) seleciton to Anaheim for the right to pick Biggs. Reports suggest that either Pittsbugh or Detroit were intent on selecting Biggs and Detroit's trade out of the first round immediately following the selection lends some anecdotal credence to the theory. Biggs' comparables during the draft telecast - for what it's worth it would be interesting to see how these compare a few years down the line - were Colby Armstrong and Milan Lucic. The former is kind of depressing but the latter is positively mouth watering. While the Leafs have certainly made strides in getting tougher to play against
They then used the pick they received from Philadelphia in the Kris Versteeg trade to draft defenceman Stuart Percy from the Mississauga St. Mike's Majors of the OHL. Percy is a lifelong Leafs fan that grew up in Oakville and played all of his minor hockey in the GTA. He sports the number five because he wants to model his game after Nik Lidstrom's. He was a player that many saw as possibly being chosen with the Leafs' 30th overall pick but the Leafs were higher on him after a strong playoff run.
Below is audio captured by Chris Dilks of Western College Hockey Blog and after the jump are videos of the two newest Maple Leafs.
Stuart Percy has Toronto Maple Leafs wallpaper, posters, and Tie Domi, Mats Sundin, and Dougie Gilmour jerseys. Oh and he talks about his time with the Majors in terms of his playing partners and being coached by Dave Cameron. He's smart, well spoken, and I'm sure killed it in his interviews if this anecdote is anything to go by.
Tyler Biggs discusses his time with the NTDP and the fact that he likes to model his game after Milan Lucic. He is currently committed to Miami of Ohio which was Brendan Burke's alma mater. The reason he chose the school was because he felt that the team's headed in the right direction and plays a run and gun style which fits his style of play. As with Percy, the Leafs were and still are his favourite team. It'll probably make him feel old when he hears it but Biggs named Dion Phaneuf as his favourite Leaf.

Plus marine admirals aren't on the same level as Yonkou, not those we know anyway, Whitebeard was declared as the strongest man on the world and Shanks ended a war with his mere presence.
All luffy really needs is to learn how to control his haki, he already has fighting power and skill beyond amazing for someone who doesn't have haki, main problem is he just can't hit them being logia users and considering he has king's haki, Luffy will get a serious boost to his destructive power, and speed perhaps as well cause low speed was a problem agaisnt kizaru.
In other words, the day luffy can control his haki perfectly, he will go from admiral level to demi god level xD much like Garp or Whitebeard and Shanks.

Pre-Med & Pre-Health
Pre-Professional Advising at Denison
Denison University, like many other colleges, does not offer a single pre-med or pre-health professions major, as there are many possible paths to embarking on careers in these areas. For many students, majors in Biology; Biochemistry; Chemistry; or Health, Exercise, and Sport Studies provide the background needed for medical, dental, veterinary, optometry and other professional schools.
Other students pursue alternative majors being careful to complete the prerequisite science courses required by the professional schools they would like to attend. However, requirements for such schools differ greatly, and for this reason the University offers students access to faculty members who assist students to prepare for success in these fields. Additionally, the University's The Knowlton Center for Career Exploration staff provides individual career advising so that students have the necessary support and resources as they plan their pre-med and pre-health occupation paths.
Schools of the health professions are seeking students who have solid undergraduate backgrounds in the sciences as well as the communication skills and well-rounded experiences in the humanities and social sciences that are hallmarks of a liberal arts education. This is why Denison University graduates have been so successful in establishing careers as physicians, dentists, veterinarians, optometrists, physician assistants, and other medical professionals. Our graduates have attended medical school in California, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia and many other schools throughout the nation.
Pre-Med/Pre Health Guides
- Medical School Preparation Guide
- Pre-Dental Guide
- Medical School Timetable
- Accelerated Nursing
- Nurse Practitioner
- Occupational Therapist
- Optometrist
- Physical Therapist
- Physician Assistant
- Veterinarians
The information that follows provides guidance to some of the questions and issues many undergraduates have when seeking careers in the health professions.
Schools of the health professions do not specify a preference for any particular undergraduate major. We always advise students to major in a discipline that they find intellectually stimulating and which will prepare them for a desirable alternative career in the event that they decide not to become a health professional. Most of our pre-professional students major in biology; biochemistry; chemistry; or health, exercise, and sport studies. However, other majors are acceptable as long as the student has completed the necessary undergraduate course requirements.
Health professions schools do have specific undergraduate course requirements. These vary considerably for different professions, and to a lesser degree between different schools for the same profession. It is essential that you learn this information early in your college career to ensure that you take all of the courses you need. Nearly all medical schools require the course listed below. (Denison University courses are indicated.)
- Introductory Chemistry (CHEM 131) - 4 semester hours
- Organic Chemistry (CHEM 132-251) - 8 semester hours
- Biochemistry (CHEM 258) - 4 semester hours
- Introduction to Biology (BIOL 150) – 4 semester hours
- Cell and Molecular Biology (BIOL 201) – 4 semester hours
- General Physics I & II (PHYS 121, 122) – 8 semester hours
- Mathematics: two semesters including some calculus (not required of some schools)Calculus (Math 121, 123, or 124) or Statistics (Math 102) 8 semester hours
- English (two semesters including First Year Seminar (FYS 102) or English 201 or higher and a literature course English 200 or higher) – 8 semester hours
You are strongly advised to complete these courses by the end of your junior year before you take the health professions admissions tests. This means that the General Chemistry and Biology courses should be taken during the freshman and sophomore years, and that the Organic Chemistry and Physics courses should be completed during the sophomore and junior years.
Some dental schools require additional course work in biology (e.g., microbiology, anatomy) and in disciplines that enhance the development of manual dexterity (e.g., musical instruments, sculpture, ceramics). Many dental schools do not have a mathematics requirement.
Most veterinary schools require additional courses in biology.
Your performance on the admission test is a critical factor that will determine your chances of a successful application. Even if you have an excellent GPA, do not assume that you will know the material well enough to achieve adequate test scores without a comprehensive study program. Our students have taken various study approaches.
These include the following:
- Detailed review of the material covered in the required biology, chemistry, and physics courses
- Study manuals available at bookstores
- Commercial preparation courses
Through the generous donations of Denison University alumni, limited scholarship funds are available for students to take commercial preparation courses. If you are interested, contact the office of Student Development, 740-587-6208. Graduate school is becoming increasingly competitive.
It is to your advantage to take the appropriate standardized tests early, even a year in advance. Remember, test registration deadlines are well in advance of the actual test dates, and most are given only a few times a year. Links are provided with each admissions exam for registration.
- MCAT -- The Medical College Admission Test is a requirement for admission to medical school. Interested student must also complete the American Medical College Applications Service, AMCAS.
- DAT -- The Dental Admission Test is a requirement for admission to dental school.
- PCAT -- The Pharmacy College Admission Test is a requirement for admission to pharmacy school.
- VCAT -- The Veterinary College Admission Test is a requirement for admission to a few veterinary schools. Most veterinary schools now require the GRE or MCAT instead.
- OAT -- The OAT is sponsored by the Association of Schools and Colleges of Optometry (ASCO) for applicants seeking admission to an optometry program.
Test Preparation
Preparation manuals have been published for most of the major examination programs and are available at bookstores. These manuals typically contain several practice tests, as well as "refresher" sections designed to assist in updating your skills in recall, judgment, and mathematics. There is a selection of books available in the The Knowlton Center for Career Exploration library.
Private, "short," courses exist to help you prepare for examinations such as the MCAT. Before investing money into one of these services, it is advisable to thoroughly research them. There are several preparatory resources available online.
Your application to schools of the health professions will be strengthened by the experiences you have had in health care. (In fact, most veterinary schools specify the number of hours you must have logged in animal care clinics.) Schools want to be certain that you understand your career choice and that you are highly motivated to complete the rigorous educational requirements you will face in medical, dental or veterinary school.
We strongly encourage our students to find part-time positions or volunteer their time in hospitals, nursing homes, etc. This can be done during summer breaks in your home town or worked into your class schedule during the school year.
It takes a lot of research to identify the program that best meets your needs. Establish your own criteria with which to compare graduate schools.
Suggested Criteria
- What are the requirements?
- Do you meet the program requirements?
- What type of students does the program attract?
- What specializations are available?
- Is the program focused on theory and original research, or the practical application of knowledge and skills?
- Do the research facilities suit your needs?
- How long does it take to complete the program?
National Graduate School Rankings
Take a look at which institutions offer the "best" programs of study. Pay attention to the criteria used to rank the school to find out if those criteria coincide with your personal criteria. Rankings are available online from U.S. News & World Report.
Geographic Location
- Climate
- Political and social temper
- Setting (Urban or Rural)
- How large is the institution and the department?
- How many students are enrolled?
- What is the student to faculty ratio?
- Who are they?
- Are there specific people doing the type of research in which you are interested?
- What have they published?
State Regulations
- In-state preference of applicants?
- Issues related to state licensure, boards, etc.?
- Are there opportunities for teaching or research assistantships?
- Will you receive assistance in your job search?
- What companies express interest in graduates from your department?
- How helpful are the departmental faculty in your search?
Financial Aid
Any application may receive larger awards at some institutions depending on university budgets. Graduate aid is based largely on merit, not need.
You may get more information by talking to faculty in your chosen field. Discuss your interests and which institutions would be most appropriate for meeting your goals. Admission officials and faculty members can help you with this information. Do not hesitate to contact them by phone, letter, email, or even a personal visit.

Primary Application
American Medical College Application Service (AMCAS)
Ninety percent of American medical schools subscribe to the Medical College Application Service (AMCAS). This service provides them with your grades and your MCAT scores. It provides you with a single (albeit lengthy) application form which may be used for multiple applications, saving you from having to write out a new form for each school. The online application may be accessed around May 1st of your senior year.
You must supply AMCAS with an official transcript, fees, and the completed application form. Do not neglect the essay.
- Transcript -- Get a copy from the Registrar's Office. Check it for accuracy. Use it to complete the AR (Academic Record) portion of the AMCAS form. Have the Registrar send an official transcript to AMCAS soon after you file your application with them. Each college or university at which you have taken courses must submit an official transcript accompanied by a Transcript Matching Form which you are to supply to them when you request your transcript to be sent. It is a page which comes from AMCAS and aids them in identifying your file. Do Not Send recommendations to AMCAS. If you are currently in school, your transcript may not be ready until June. After you have seen it and verified that it is correct, request that one be sent to AMCAS.
- Fees & Forms -- Follow the directions carefully. The correct completion of the AMCAS procedure is worth two college credits in intermediate bureaucracy. Allow time.
- Essay -- Write one under "personal comments." Remember that this may be going to many different schools; don't address it to a specific one.
- Print out a copy of your AMCAS form so that you will be able to refer to it in any negotiations you may have with AMCAS or with the medical school. Interviewers may question you on parts of your application. You should know what they are referring to, so read your copy again shortly before your interview.
- Chronology of Procedure for AMCAS
- Complete AMCAS forms online beginning in May. Try to send them back to AMCAS by July 4.
- Send off completed forms with fees.
- Have official transcripts sent to AMCAS.
- Expect notification that AMCAS has your materials (two or three weeks after number 2).
- Expect notification from the medical schools you named on the designation form that they have received your application from AMCAS. (Allow two or three weeks after number 4). They may want application fees now. Pay up if you want further consideration. Send your recommendations. Select individual letters and provide your references with your AAMC ID# and AMCAS Letter ID.
- Mid-year grades can be sent directly to the schools from which you are waiting to hear, not to AMCAS.
- If you receive financial aid and qualify for fee reduction, see the AAMC web site early in the spring semester for information about registering for fee reduction.
- Correspondence -- Include your appropriate identification number on all correspondence with AMCAS, MCAT, or DAT.
After medical schools receive your application, they will send you what's called a "secondary." Some schools send all of their applicants a secondary, while others go through an initial cut (usually based totally on GPA and MCAT score). Secondaries usually include a variety of essays that are slightly more directed than the "personal comments" in the primaries part of the application.
- Application Essay or Personal Statement -- Most institutions will ask that you submit a statement of purpose or personal statement. Personal statements provide you the opportunity to supplement standard application material with your goals and objectives with respect to the program. Typically, the institutions will offer suggestions to consider including. Good grammar and writing styles are extremely important.
- Evaluation
- Motivation and commitment to your field of study
- Expectations with regard to the program and career opportunities
- Education background
- Reasons for deciding to pursue graduate education in a particular field and at a particular institution
- Writing ability
- Major areas of interest
- Research or work experience
- Immediate and long term goals
- Personal uniqueness – what you would add to the diversity of the entering class
- Maturity
- How will your application be processed? When the medical school's admissions office has received all of your materials, it is usually referred to an admission committee for your particular program or school. This faculty committee reviews your application, reaches a decision, and makes a recommendation to the dean. The candidates that show strength in a combination of the admissions requirements, including academic preparation, test scores, and recommendations, have the best chance for selection.
- Interview -- Be proud if you're invited to an interview. You've made it through two initial screenings, one before and one after the supplemental application. Usually, this means that the Admissions Committee thinks you're qualified to attend their school.
- Different schools have different policies about who conducts the actual interview. In general, schools have a Medical Selection Committee made up of professional admissions or student affairs people and faculty members. Often, especially in more progressive schools, upper-level med students also participate. At some schools, you'll have a couple of separate, one-on-one interviews; at others, you'll be interview by a panel. You may be the only applicant in front of a panel (this really seems like an inquisition), or you may be joined by other candidates.
- Stress Interviews -- Stress interviews can take a lot of different forms, but their main characteristic is that the interviewer puts you in a position where he or she can observe how you act — and how you speak — under pressure. Proponents of stress interviews argue that they get you to drop your carefully studied "med school interview facade" and reveal what you're really like. Typical tactics include asking questions about sensitive or controversial topics, delving into extremely personal matters, rattling off a series of game show – like trivia questions, or showing disapproval — through challenging remarks or negative body language — at almost everything you say. Remember to contact the The Knowlton Center for Career Exploration to schedule a Mock Interview to practice before the real thing!
Statistics from top U.S. medical schools show that schools are demanding higher MCAT scores and undergrad GPAs. In 2011, there were a total of 41,017 applicants for medical school and about 42% matriculated. (AAMC). For Denison graduates (Class of 2011) 22 applied and 8 matriculated or 36% In 2011, the National GPA for applicants was 3.43, for Denison applicants, 3.35. For those accepted, the national GPA was 3.61, for Denison, 3.56. The national GPA for matriculated applicants was 3.61 and for Denison applicants 3.56.

오 기름에 튀기지 않아 죄책감을 덜어주네요! 짜지만 치즈맛 제대로 납니다. 맥주랑 와인이랑 콜라랑 마구마구 먹어주는 거예요. 가끔은요...

I bought 5 different flavours and opened them all up at the same time just to try each flavour. This is my second fav next to the sea salt & vinegar. So yummy. Sour cream & onion was out of stock but I think I'm going to really like those and can't wait to try them next!

Crisp, light, flavourful and decidedly more-ish. Please god don't let the Japanese customs put this on the banned list...

Love the taste will buy again
Not really sure about these...
Posted by Reviewer3138033 on Sep 23, 2011
These do not taste like potato chips. But, they do not taste BAD or anything. They have a texture sort of like a really crunchy mini-rice cake, but with a sort of potato-y aftertaste to them. It's a very odd "chip".
My least fave popchip flavour
Posted by lucygoosyxo on Apr 04, 2012
I like all the popchip flavours, but these would be my least favourite. They seem overly cheesy and salty. I much prefer the original or pepper flavours.
Not really..
Posted by Reviewer3302472 on Aug 08, 2011
I'm a huge chips fan, and was so excited to try something healthier than normal chips. Sadly, this doesn't come close at all. The taste is flat, and the consistence is weird. Also it tasted a bit like it has been burned slightly. I tried two different seasonings, but I didn't like either of them at all. The calories aren't really THAT important to me, so I'd rather get 100 more calories per 100g chips, just so I can enjoy greasy, regular chips! :p

Becoming a pilot
Cherishing a dream is admirable and important for young people who want to become pilots, but education and training is vital for this career. And doing well at school is the most important requirement for a future in the world of aviation. Nature has designed humans to live and move on the ground and we have developed a set of characteristics suitable for this purpose. Flying is not a natural condition for humans. Learning to fly therefore means adapting to "unnatural" situations, which often go against our instincts and the way of reasoning that make us human. To succeed, you need particularly strong and enduring passion and determination throughout a journey that starts in the flying school classroom and continues in your professional life, flight after flight.
Are we humans or superheroes?
The image of the "superman" pilot must be relegated to the pioneering age of aviation when courage was valued over knowledge and flying was about exploration and discovery. Today, flying primarily means being able to accept iron discipline and follow certain rules strictly, constantly and without exceptions. These rules have implications not only in your working life but also often in your private life too.
In the classroom
I would not recommend one school to attend over another: during my career I have met thousands and thousands of pilots, each with their own experience and own cultural baggage, some coming from a military background, others from civilian life with an infinite range of academic qualifications from universities and higher education institutions in Italy and around the world. But they all had one thing in common: an unshakable passion for flying.
Personally, I think that your attitude while you are there is more important than the school you attend. Determination in studying, desire, curiosity and delight in learning new and different subjects come from the individual and not the school attended.
Perfect sight is (not) needed
The pilot's profession is governed by international regulations known as JAR FCL 3 (medical part of a pilot's license), which can easily be found online.
Generally speaking, for civilian pilots some tolerance is allowed regarding sight, provided that it can be corrected with lenses. Basically, the sight requirements are: sight no worse than 7/10 for each eye provided that you reach 10/10 with both eyes with corrections. The myopic component cannot be more than -3 diopters. These figures are, however, approximate because the values change according to the type of medical certification you wish to obtain (first class, second class, etc.), but, in any case, you will find all the characteristics needed in JAR FCL 3.
A career as a pilot
A career as a civilian pilot in Italy starts with enrolling in a flying school (Aeroclub); the minimum age for enrollment is 16, but you need to have passed your 17th birthday to obtain your first license. To enroll on a flying course, you need to pass a medical examination at one of the three Air Force Istituti di Medicina Legale (forensic medicine institutions) in Italy (Milan, Rome and Naples).
At flying school, you start off with a theory course, generally lasting 6 to 8 months, with around 180 hours in total of teaching on the following subjects: principles of flight, aerodynamics, general principles of aircraft, human performance and its limits, meteorology, navigation, aviation regulations, operating procedures and communications. At the end of this first period, students take a theory exam to assess their learning.
After passing these first theory exams, the practical instruction phase begins, leading to exams involving various flying tests. To take the practical exam, the regulations require students to have flown for at least 45 hours, 25 of which with dual controls with the instructor on board, 10 solo hours (without instructor) and 10 at the instructor's discretion. After the first 10 hours of flying with dual controls (with the instructor), you get the student pilot certificate. The certificate allows you to fly solo, without passengers, when authorized by the instructor who must, however, be present at the airport.
License to fly
Having passed the exams, you start preparing for licenses and qualifications, which are awarded through government exams organized by the Ente Nazionale Aviazione Civile (ENAC — the Italian Civil Aviation Authority). Generally, the theory exams are written multiple-choice tests whereas the practical exams involve flying with an examiner authorized by ENAC.
- PPL — Private Pilot License: license that allows you to fly in Italy and abroad on a not-for-profit basis. It is intended for those who wish to fly for pleasure, who need to travel quickly from one place to another or for sport or tourism purposes.
- CPL — Commercial Pilot License: This license can be obtained with additional training, after the private pilot license, and allows pilots to be paid for their flying activities. This is the license that allows pilots to fly for payment as a captain or co-pilot on civil aircraft. The license immediately below it qualifies you exclusively to pilot aircraft with non-paying passengers. To obtain the CPL, as well as holding the PPL license, you need to speak English (which is not necessary for the PPL) and to have flown for at least 150 hours. In addition, the flight rules change from VFR to IFR, with the resulting qualification for instrument flying. The advantages of this license range from the possibility of flying, as a captain or co-pilot, an IFR aircraft with two or more engines, working as a commercial pilot, and being able to fly outside of Italian territory. To get this aviation license and enjoy the benefits, you need to be passed as fit in "1st class medical examinations" by one of the Italian Air Force medical centers. These medical examinations have to be passed annually.
- ATPL — Airline Transport Pilot License: this is the flying license that qualifies you to fly as an airline pilot. After the ATPL there is a further course known as Type Rating that involves pilots specializing on a specific aircraft (you need the ATPL for this). Normally, after they have gained around 1000 hours of flying experience and have got their ATPL, pilots are hired by an airline which funds the Type Rating. Having passed this last course, holders of this license can handle aircraft used to transport passengers on scheduled or charter services.
Having obtained the various licenses and qualifications, a civilian pilot can work in general aviation or for an airline.

I found your web site and read about the home owner loking for the pipe and access through the basement floor. My question relates to the trap and rough in pipe. My builder left about two inches of pvc pipe above the concrete with rubber caps on the toilet and shower drain. When I remove the rubber caps, I don't smell any sewer fumes. Do the builders plug the lines or should I assume that the traps are working?
