Emery County Commissioner Jeff Horrocks, along with Jim Gordon, supervisor of the Emery County Ambulance Service, approached the Ferron City Council with a request to partner with the ambulance service. As explained by Commissioner Horrocks, this move would require Ferron City to pay a third of the cost to train any emergency medical technicians from Ferron City.
"We recently moved the ambulance service from the jurisdiction of the Sheriff's Office to become a stand alone entity," said Commissioner Horrocks. "We have had problems maintaining EMTs to run the service. We are asking each of the communities to partner with the ambulance service and asking them to pay one third of the cost to train an incoming EMT. The cost to train one EMT at the basic level is $650. We are asking you to pay one third, the ambulance service will pay one third, and the trainee will be required to pay one third of that cost.
"Our suggestion is to require the trainee to pass the certification test at the conclusion of the training and also be required to sign a contract to serve for a period deemed appropriate by the city. We are suggesting a period of one year. If a person who is already an EMT is willing to recertify for the ambulance service, we will also pay for the recertification," said Commissioner Horrocks. He also added the time for the State to approve to have classes is 30 days, and they are working to have that time waived so classes may begin as soon as possible.
Commissioner Horrocks went on to say, "Some changes in the ambulance service have already taken place. We now have a scheduling and supply coordinator in each town. We did not send any of the EMTs to the conference this year because we are saving the funds to bring in instructors and the EMTs will be paid to attend these classes for their hours in training. Sue Copinga has been hired as the county training officer and she and Jimmy are holding training sessions each Thursday around the county. It takes 120 hours of training for a person to certify as an EMT at the basic level, and 100 hours of training to recertify," concluded Commissioner Horrocks.
Gordon said, "Things are changing on the national level and those changes are coming in July. We are trying to be ready when they come."
Before the council discussed the issue of partnering with the ambulance service, Ferron City Councilman Garrett Hansen asked about a rumor to take the ambulance out of Ferron due to the lack of a sufficient number of EMTs to run. Commissioner Horrocks said that is only a rumor and there are no plans to remove the ambulance from Ferron. The council approved to partner with the ambulance service for the training of new EMTs.
In other actions taken by Ferron City Council, it was approved to become involved with a project being undertaken by the Utah Association of Conservation Districts to mark each of the storm drains in the cities. Daniel Gunnell of the UACD said the markers are being ordered and a number is needed for those cities wishing to participate.
These markers are to be placed by each drain and contain information concerning what materials are appropriate to be put down the drains.
"These markers have reminders on them that anything that goes into the storm drains will end up in the water supply or on a nearby farm. This could possibly be an Eagle Scout project," said Gunnell.
The council approved to participate in this program. The UACD will pay 60 percent of the cost and the city will be required to pay 40 percent of the cost. Labor cost for the installation can be counted as the city's portion of the project.
The council approved to appoint Randy Nielson, the fire chief, to sit on the fire service district board. It was also approved to donate $100 to the Miss Emery Pageant to be held July 11 at the Emery High Auditorium.
Beginning immediately, the city will advertise to hire a full time maintenance person. The job description will be reviewed and updated for this position.
Councilman Trent Jackson announced the restaurant at Millsite Golf Course is now open. Marv and Elaine Garrett are running the Snack Shack and it will be open Thursday through Sunday. He said the new baseball fields are nearly ready for play, the bases will be installed soon.
Councilman Joe Trenery informed the council he had attended road school. He also received NIMS training and certification. Clean-up at the fairgrounds in preparation for the junior livestock show will be held July 6.
Councilman Mike Behling requested council feedback concerning the automated water meters. This project needs to be placed on the agenda for action and budget placement. Mayor JoAnn Behling instructed Councilman Behling to select a portion of the city and secure the numbers to bring to the council for consideration.
Councilman Hansen asked Commissioner Horrocks about the county wide animal control ordinances being discussed. Commissioner Horrocks explained the county is advertising for a county animal control officer and will conduct interviews soon. This county officer will work during the daytime which will enable city personnel to be called during nighttime hours. The county is also working to adopt countywide rules and penalties for animal control.
The next Ferron City Council meeting will be held June 11 at 7 p.m. at city hall.

The Details Are in the Tobacco: Preparing for Our Sitting Bull Production
I recently wrote about the research around an upcoming SOF program exploring the spiritual legacy of Sitting Bull. We've zeroed in on some possible voices for the show, including Ernie LaPointe (pictured at right), Sitting Bull's great-grandson. Ernie lives in the Black Hills of South Dakota and Krista will be interviewing him at his home in late October.
One of the reasons why Krista wants to conduct the interview in Ernie's home is because she'd like him to show her things — photos, relics, memorabilia — that are evocative of Sitting Bull's memory. I needed to find out what artifacts he has so I asked if he could give me a rundown. But as soon as the word "artifact" tumbled out of my mouth, Ernie said I would need to speak with his wife, Sonja. From what I could understand, Ernie follows the traditional Lakota way, and therefore does not talk casually about people who have passed on.
Ernie's wife, who is German, explained that when Krista comes in October we'll need to bring a gift of tobacco. "Not a pound, just a little," she said. Ernie will use the tobacco as an offering to his ancestors when he asks their permission to discuss their lives and memory. Sonia also mentioned that if anyone on our production team is "on her moon" (in other words, menstruating), Ernie won't be able to present certain sacred objects. Apparently Ernie has a prayer room in his house with a sign on the door that reads something like: "Do not enter if you are on your moon."
We've already started talking as a production team about the tobacco: How much should we bring? What kind? Should it be presented in a pouch or a tin? As an associate producer for this show, I'll be following up on on these kinds of details in the weeks to come.

St. Paul's Letter to the Hebrews 9:11-14
Prokeimenon. Mode Plagal 1.
Psalm 11.7,1
You, O Lord, shall keep us and preserve us.
Verse: Save me, O Lord, for the godly man has failed.
BRETHREN, when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation) he entered once for all into the Holy Place, taking not the blood of goats and calves but his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption. For if the sprinkling of defiled persons with the blood of goats and bulls and with the ashes of a heifer sanctifies for the purification of the flesh, how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify your conscience from dead works to serve the living God.

Canada loses opening match at European Continental Cup
KETTERING, England – Canada's national men's sitting volleyball team lost its opening round robin match Monday to Ukraine at the 11-country European Continental Cup. The set scores were 25-9, 25-7, 25-16.
The Canadian team, ranked 19th in the world to fifth for the Ukrainians wasn't pleased with its opening performance.
''We didn't come ready to play today,'' said national team coach Ian Halliday. ''We will address some things as a team and begin to make changes starting tomorrow (Tuesday).''
"It's disappointing the way we played today,'' added Canadian team captain Austin Hinchey. ''Against a good team like that you have to compete hard for each point and we didn't do that today."
Canada and Ukraine are in pool A with Bosnia-Herzegovina, Brazil, Britain and Kazakhstan. Pool B teams are Azerbaijan, China, Egypt, Russia and the U.S. The top four teams in each pool in the round robin advance to the playoff round.
The Canadians face Kazakhstan and Bosnia-Herzegovina on Tuesday.

Are quant funds back to stay? That's the very question asked by Morningstar's Greg Carlson in a piece published today that highlight's the misfires by funds that use quantitative stock picking models during the bear market that ran from October 2007 to March 2009.
According to Carlson, the seven quant funds tracked by Morningstar are on the comeback trail. Through the end of 2012, the group – which include the Bogle Small Cap Growth Fund (BOGLX) and the AQR Momentum Fund (AMOMX) had beaten 70% of its respective peer groups, on average, for the trailing three years.

: We are building a new house, and our plumber informs us that he cannot install a cast iron tub in a certain 2nd floor bath due to the location of the floor joists. He says that the tub drain sits on top of the joist, and that he cannot cut it to accomodate it. He recommends a steel tub, stating that a steel tub has a different drain location. Is this true? Any other suggestions? I would much prefer a cast iron tub.

classy clutch
"I bought the champagne color. It looks very classy, feels soft, and it can hold a lots. I can put my camera, wallet, phone, keys, and a lipstick in it. The downside is that if you ever get this clutch dirty, it is hard to wipe clean. Also, the long strap that comes with the clutch traps my hair and hurts me, when my boyfriend walks next to me, his arm hairs got trap in the strap as well and it actually pulled off a few. And just like other clutches that are designed the same way with the opening on top, when you open the clutch things will fall out, i will have to make sure I have one hand holding the side of the clutch and the other hand reaching for my phone every time. But overall with this price, this clutch looks expensive and excellent for pairing with any formal looks."

Jason Gregor
February 06 2013 01:15PM
Yesterday Ralph Krueger suggested he is contemplating making a switch amongst his top two lines for tonight's tilt v. Dallas.
Which move makes more sense? Turns out it wasn't what many were thinking.
Will he move Sam Gagner between Taylor Hall and Jordan Eberle, and slide Ryan Nugent-Hopkins between Nail Yakupov and Ales Hemsky, or will he stay with the duos he liked at the start of the season, Eberle with RNH, Gagner with Hemsky and swap Yakupov and Hall?
I think both moves would have merit.
The Hall/Gagner/Eberle trio had success last year, most notably Gagner's 8-point night against Chicago. Hall and Hemsky are the two best forwards right now at backing off the defenders on the rush, so keeping them on separate lines makes sense.
Right now Nugent-Hopkins has shown he is better defensively than Gagner. While RNH isn't producing like Gagner, 9-game point streak, he has shown remarkable improvement with his defensive zone coverage. If you put RNH between Yakupov and Hemsky, they likely won't be eaten up 5-on-5 like the 64/89/83 trio was.
Also, putting RNH with the Yakupov, who has been the best shooter early on, could lead to more offensive chances. The great news for Krueger is that he's the first Oiler coach in a decade who has six legitimate offensive players that he can rotate through his top-two lines.
Krueger could also throw Yakupov with RNH and Eberle, and give them better matchups, while putting Hall with Gagner and Hemsky and give them the harder minutes. Hemsky has faced the top defenders for most of his career, so he's used to it, and right now Hall's overall speed and strength make him the hardest to defend amongst the young kids.
Nugent-Hopkins will not play tonight. There will be some switching of lines and positions, but it will involve Mark Arcobello and Ryan Smyth.
Arcobello will have one of the best opportunities any player has had for his first NHL game. He'll play between Hall and Eberle, while Smyth will move to centre with Lennart Petrell and Darcy Hordichuk on his wings.
RNH is listed as day-to-day, and according to Krueger if this was a playoff game he'd be playing. Krueger said they expect him to play Saturday in Detroit. His shoulder is bothering him, not sure which one, but after a hard hit in OT v. Vancouver the Oilers have elected to rest him.
The Stars roll into Rexall looking very different than last year. They have lots of new faces, young and old, and it will be interesting to see how they and the Oilers match up.
Alex Goligoski is a healthy scratch. He hasn't played as well as the coaches would like, so he'll take a seat upstairs.
- Devan Dubnyk is tied for 7th in SV%, .925%, with goalies who have started at least five games. He has faced the most shots in the NHL at 295, and along with Jimmy Howard, Mikka Kiprusoff and Jonathan Quick they are the only goalies to have started every game for their team.
- The Oilers are 30th in shots against. They are allowing 34.4 per game. They are 24th in shots for with 27.4/game, which ranks them 29th in SF/SA ratio at a woeful -7.
- The positive for tonight is that the Stars are 30th in SF/SA ratio at an awful -9.2. The Stars are only averaging 24.6 shot per game while allowing 33.8.
- Smyth, Petrell, Lander, Gagner and Paajarvi will rotate on the penalty kill.
- Yakupov tweeted out a pretty neat picture of him and Jaromir Jagr. "Nail10_1993 : That was 2004 -Jagr played in Russia , in Lockout time . And it's me 11 years old Boy :) Good eh ?)))) "
- Yakupov is excited to play one of his idols tonight.
- Krueger wouldn't say for sure who would be on his first powerplay unit, but you will likely see Arcobello slide in to Nugent-Hopkins spot. I'd look at putting Ryan Smyth on the first unit in place of Shawn Horcoff, because they need to try and win the faceoff and he is good in front of the net.
- The Stars have been shorthanded a league-high 50 times this year. They were preaching discipline this morning, and admitted they are leery of the Oilers powerplay. The Oilers are 2nd in PP goals, 12, and 3rd in PP% at 28.6. The Stars PK is solid at 11th, but their PP only has 4 goals on 33 chances and sit 27th at 12.1%.
- Hall fought Roussel in the minors this year, and Stars analyst Darryl Reaugh called him mini-Pepe today, a Claude Lemieux reference. Roussel is great at getting under people's skin, and isn't afraid to drop the gloves to protect himself. Look for him to try and fire up the Oilers tonight.
GAME DAY PREDICTION: The Oilers are without three centres, and since most expect them to lose tonight, they will do the opposite and win, 3-2.
OBVIOUS GAME DAY PREDICTION: The Oilers will struggle in the faceoff dot, and Smyth will have the best percentage.
NOT-SO-OBVIOUS GAME DAY PREDICTION: Early in the 2nd period, Arcobello will saucer a cross-ice pass to Eberle who scores his first goal in five games. Right after he scores Roussel will give him a cheap shot in the back. Arcobello skates in and jumps Roussel. They drop the gloves and Arcobello takes a few heavy shots. While sitting in the penalty box, they announce the goal and Arcobello's assist and the big screen shows Arcobello in the sin bin, nose leaking with a huge grin. The crowd loves it and gives Arcobello a standing ovation.
February 06 2013, 03:07PM
Not every kid selected is going to pan out. There's likely to be a future support player in this bunch, don't you think?
All three of the past entry drafts the Oilers have went hard after netting more than one of these lottery kids. Seguin and Hall in 2010. Hopkins and Larsson in 2011, and this past summer they went hard after both Ryan Murray and Alex Galchenyuk. Desperate times call for desperate measures.
Less than 50/50, the player selected first ends up being the best player in that draft class.Hall and Hopkins arrows seem to be pointing sideways rather than up this season, don't you think?
February 06 2013, 03:13PM
I hear you. Honestly I think the Oilers will be fine in the sense that their core is pushing them forward. They are trending up (hard to be worse than the past 3 years) and if Whitney is replaced with a legit top 3 Defenseman the Oilers will be in really good position.
I dont think they will be a Columbus/Florida type team because those guys whiffed on their top players or never took them in bunches. The Oilers are too skilled to be bottom feeders forever, but you are right. They wont be cup contenders without legit NHL players throughout their lineup.
If Nuge wasnt hurt there would still be 7 players who played on the Barons, 1 Rookie from russia, and a Goalie in his 1st year as the starter. That is a lot of inexperience. Those same guys 2-3 years from now have a chance to dominate though. Until then if all of them are playing in the NHL we have to assume there will be issues.
February 06 2013, 03:53PM
The old lady guarantees an oiler win tonite and her voodoo is strong. She says they will try harder to prove themselves.
February 06 2013, 03:54PM
I think the Nuge is gonna be a band aid .
First game with real adversity. We all hope Acro does well and my guy tells me he will be fine.
Oil show lots of intensity, and you know Dallas smells Blood.
Nordic line pots 2, Hall and Hemmer with singles in 4-2 Oil Win.
Speed once again boys. Dallas is not the swiftest team.
Whitney 2 assists and a scrap.
Come on big man , we need you.
February 06 2013, 04:25PM
Anybody have any idea what kind of speed this guys has?
February 06 2013, 04:26PM
The plan all along is to finish last draft first........nothing has changed.
Then when we get to the podium.....Tamby will select the smallest fastest player he can find.

Oilers lose 5-2. Goals by Yakupov and Whitney.
If we somehow have the 1st pick again this year, I keep the pick, take McKinnon and trade one of the other guys for the players we need. There is no way you can take a pass on McKinnon and I don't think any team would offer enough to trade that pick away.
Aren't you a little tired of the same old song n' dance on repeat.
The same things were said about Hall in 2010; Nuge in 2011; and Yakupov in 2012
What are we going to say the year after that? Can't pass up on McDavid, man he's gonna change this team around.
Were proving that high draft picks are not the only answer, quality serviceable NHL players are needed to surround those picks 'cause they cannot do it alone.
@ Time Travelling Sean
My words may seem like I feel the sky is falling, but I really don't. Other than the Calgary game, I'm quite happy with their play thus far. Its management's lack of managing that has us in a situation where it could very well fall.
This team needs to have a very good record over the next 8 games, as 6 are at home...and then the dreaded Brier Road trip begins which will be hell, let alone if we struggle for the rest of February.

So hes slow? Gagner slow or Hordi slow? or is he taking slomo
Anybody have any idea what kind of speed this guys has?
Speed is NHL Caliber, I was at a game in OKC this year and he was the best player on the ice.
Measure his heart , not his height. Look at the dwarf on Buffalo, who wouldn't want him ? Not saying he is that talented, but there have been many small guys make it big. The unfortunate part is Our Oilers have too many smaller players.
My guess is we will be pleasantly surprised as will Ralphy, well maybe not him , he knows what Acro brings thats why he called him up to the Show.

NSOGDP With the teeny boppers dancing in the aisles to Beyonce, the lights will go out. Hordichuk will sneak over to the Dallas bench looking to ambush Ott.

No, No, he's August Musger slow. X3
For everyone saying the sky is falling, we are still in a playoff spot, and we have a winning record.
What was that stat? All teams last year in a playoff spot through the first 10 games made the playoffs? You'd think that would be better for us during a shortened season.
Some may say it is unsustainable, to be continuously out shot and outplayed 5v5 and still win, but if Florida can do it, so can we.
Oilers were 8-2-2 outta the gate last year. We definitely didn't make it.
Here's hoping it's gonna be one of those games where we are so depleted, we are expected to lose but somehow come out with a win.
Go Oil!

Ya didn't he try checking a 6'5" guy in the minors. First time he just bounced off and then second time he took the big man out??? That's the kind of player this team needs. May be small but plays big.
February 06 2013, 04:57PM
One man's adversity is another's opportunity. Arcobello could not have scripted a much better chance than he will get by playing on the first line tonight. I know I'm not alone in saying that I hope he makes the most of it.
Obviously, we are really thin in the middle right now but I actually think that Smyth could benefit from a move to C on a more permanent basis. He has already been taking a few faceoffs pretty much every game and doing alright. He is solid defensively and I would rather see him move the puck to other, quicker players and crashing the net for rebounds. The last few games Smyth has had some room down the wing but he doesn't have the speed or the shot to provide any threat whatsoever.
I think the Oilers will surprise tonight and win despite their banged up lineup. 2-1 Oilers, goals by Eberle and Hemsky. Arcobello with an assist. GO OILERS GO!!
Step right up and see your Edmonton Oilers! Now, without centermen!
Who needs centermen to win a game?
Read something similar about the line ups
February 06 2013, 06:34PM
I completely agree, but I'm not sure if this is that year or if a serious run at winning would be better suited for next year.
Yak wont be a rookie, some bigger contracts come off the books (others kick in), Dubnyk is more established, etc.
I think they want to see what this team can do largely as it is and then make the necessary changes in the summer. That's what I would do, anyway.
& @ Ron Burgundy
The Hot a stove was talking about Steve Weiss and I thought about how adding a player like that would be a huge problem-solver for the Oil. They could buy out Horcoff's contract this summer and run Nuge, Gags, and Weiss as your 3 C's.
But I agree with you guys that '13 is a season for improvement, while '13-'14 they need to go for it. Ie, adding a player like Weiss or a top Dman should be done through free agency without costing an asset, as opposed to dealing our 1st rounder and an up and comer on a good contract like Paajarvi just to hopefully finish in8th.
February 06 2013, 06:39PM
It was a typo...27.4 shots/game...They are -7
cool. I thought I was missing something.
And lordie we have a chance!
February 06 2013, 06:50PM
Well, now we see what kind of depth OKC can give us... I wonder if Tambi will cash in a defnceman (Peckham or Plante) for maybe a depth centre to get us through?
February 06 2013, 07:21PM
Well, now we see what kind of depth OKC can give us... I wonder if Tambi will cash in a defnceman (Peckham or Plante) for maybe a depth centre to get us through?
Then later we can trade the depth centre for a depth D-man. Or we can just bring up a Baron for a "cupa". Steady as she goes in my opinion, that's part of development, giving these Barons a look see at the big league.
February 06 2013, 07:57PM
Yakupov == Beauty
February 06 2013, 08:35PM
There is no justification for personal attacks. Period.
I Agree and have had his back too many times ....
No Chris Cuthbert - fantastic.
So another center down? What was that about voodoo....?
February 06 2013, 10:06PM
Can they get rid of Potter? Any other defenseman would be an improvement. The guy makes the worst give aways. He makes me remember good things about Grebeshkov.
February 06 2013, 10:20PM
How many 1st round picks do we need, is our entire top six former first rounders, and three of them were the first name to be called?
Skill is not the issue anymore, functional size and serviceable depth are.
Unless the goal is just jersey sales, but sooner or later winning needs to be the only priority.
Sorry, but this is going to sting a bit.
This years draft is loaded with elite center's, the kind that dont come around very often.
I understand you as a fan wanting to win but what did you expect? to go from 29th to the playoffs? completly unrealistic.
The Oilers need a lot more skill, the need it in the bottom six, they need it in the top six.
How do you prepose you get that skill?
Players like Gagner, Petry,and Hemsky will help to get that skill, since you can only draft one elite player, then you draft and move.
this year the Oilers can draft there center and move one of those players mentioned for need.
with Klefbom showing up next year good chance a player like Petry can also be used.
the Oilers need a lot of skill.
February 06 2013, 11:00PM
That sit in the press box sure did Whitney a lot of good. He looks as slow and lethargic as he has all season. Lots of try in this year's squad but the game is a lot tougher when you don't have the puck. Taylor Hall seemed to be the only guy who could win a faceoff out there.
@Clyde Frog
February 06 2013, 11:03PM
Someone needs to teach these guys how to clear the zone. I miss the days of Staios bouncing it off the glass and out. At least it made it over the blueline.
Yammy Jagr is a Fun Sponge!
Tough one, But we need to look at- No Horcoff- No Fistric- No Jones No Eager- No Belanger-Lost Lander, I have to believe somewhere in there, we win this game if these gents are in the lineup. No Lander probably would not be, but i am sure Jones would have 2-3 goals [maybe] by now and one of them cold have equated to a victory.. I dunno.
Whitney- Wow, thats all i can say.
I felt bad about the Whitney benching, but I'd would be mad if they don't sit him next game. Hell, Bobby Baun on a broken leg could of defended that. Jagr is a world class player, but at times but he's slow. Ryan was beat to spot by a 41 year old. He's to slow to get pucks, he's not physical enough to defend, and he can't keep up with and old man.
Whitney is this years Barker, he's costing games and points.
February 06 2013, 11:19PM
Think that OT goal by Jagr is a good example of Dubnyk getting tired. Unobstructed view of the shooter/puck and he sits there, hoping the puck just hits him. His glovehand must've went to sleep on him on that opportunity. Zero wins in his last four starts.
Oilers must be paying a price for mouthing off at the refs. More often than not they're on the short end of breaks from the officials.
I can't believe I'm going to say this but, I'm starting to feel really bad for Whitney, its got to be killing him inside.
I just can't get over how off his game is.
At the same time Krueger cant keep putting him out there.
He's a bloody train wreck.
Also, I know it's completely obvious but Hall is a beast right now. Him & Hemsky are all over the ice & it's a good thing. Good thing they're at least healthy.
Half the team is injured; I mean what is this 2010?
Trade Whit's before nobody wants him.
Well another loss - 4 in a row.
Whitney - well documented already. He looks as bad as he did that first Vancouver game where the puck was in the corner and he couldn't turn the proper way to retrieve it. Cue Holmstrom retirement speech.
Hall was awesome - again. Could have done without the btw legs as I think he he would have scored on the backhand. But was best Oiler.
Arcobello - welcome to the NHL. Now you know why these guys do all that endurance training like they do! A step behind the play (sometimes 5 steps). A lot to ask of you and loss is not on your head.
Dubie - Agree he was getting fatigued. Most minutes in NHL and most shots! Cue Habi.
Upside??? Well until the Emergency Room gets emptied we are going to be lucky to keep getting these Loser points.
Help . . . .
He has a .925 save percentage in his last four starts. I'm not sure you can ask more from your goalie getting you to OT three times in four games while getting badly outshot most nights.
The reason this team has zero wins in four games is because of the lack of scoring. Only 1.75 goals per game in the last four. Hardly Dubnyk's fault this team can't score right now.
Sorry, I meant a .932 save percentage...accidently counted the empty-net goal against Colorado.
You're easily impressed. Anyone can see Taylor Hall is frustrated by the way this seasons started. He may have a few points but he's fighting the puck as well as trying to just stay on his feet. Taylor Hall himself i'm sure would admit he's not happy with the start to his season. How far off base do you feel i am on this?
All the Oilers forwards should consider wearing those clear foot/skate gaurds like Smid wears. Have to think they would've saved Belanger and Lander some grief.
I thnk you are correct. He knows that the Oil will be fighting between 7th and 14th and the point differential will be +/- 6 points. So every point counts. Right now I am sure he is saying we have given back at least 4 pts and he wants it to stop.
But given the injuries and line-up situation this team is in a world of hurt short term.
February 07 2013, 12:21AM
The bottom line is that the oil have won 4 and lost 6.
There is no top line. Hall and ebs can't finish and the Nuge has not been himself. Until the top line stops trying creative nice plays and starts taking the puck to the net the oilers will lose.
Arcobello was a failed experiment and Yak and MPS should not be out together in ot.
February 07 2013, 12:24AM
Sorry, I meant a .932 save percentage...accidently counted the empty-net goal against Colorado.
If we don't count the first period against the Sharks it was .951. That .020 difference could be attributed to being tired in the later stages of games. That .020 difference may have cost the club 2 or 3 points in the last week, no?

Brass tacks……. tired or not tired, the Oilers are not scoring enough for any goalie.
Would it make a difference if Khabibulin or Dubnyk were in net?
Scoring under two goals a game it wouldn't be.
By an inch or by a mile............really doesn't matter.
February 07 2013, 01:01AM
@Walter Sobchak
True that,
But after 10 games in 2 1/2 weeks i do see his effort tailing off in the later stages of games.
February 07 2013, 06:46AM
Yikes, the Oilers are looking lottery teamish right now.
The combination of the Oilers Hall and Eberle being snake bit in conjunction with all the centers on the IR is not making me very optimistic either at the moment.Just sayin. I do like that the team has not folded its tent and gone to ground. They are battling and eventually some of those chances have to go in. Ebs missed a golden opportunity last night.Hall the PS the game before.
The one factor that we all seem to discount is that the quality of the goaltending we have faced early on has been absolutely amazing. We are seeing across the league alot of low scoring games. Scotty bowman commented that you better make the most of your PP because 5 vs 5 there ain't going to be heck of alot of scoring. We are seeing that across the league.
Lander? bruise? Next? The beneficiary in all this is the guys down in OKC and Stockton and those guys looking for a PTO. The Oilers are on every agents speed dial right now.
When do the Oilers make a move for a center?
February 07 2013, 08:06AM
how long until we sign Jason Arnott? He's still available right? At this point why not.
February 07 2013, 08:44AM
1 Regulation win in 10 games - that is the most telling stat... throw in all the arguments why blah blah blah...it is still only 1 regulation win in ten games at that is atrocious.
because another thing about a youth movement - is cockiness and they where filled to the rim in it all of them Hall, Nuge, Eberle after treating the AHL like every game was an all star game they tried to bring that to the big show.
look at every game - you will see extra passes, nifty dance moves, crazy shots and TURNOVERS like no one has ever seen.
Yakopov - is still on cloud 9 - big eyed and shell shocked that he is in the NHL that is understandable but also making blunders.
The only two young guys that have come in - punched in to work and punched out are Justin Shultz and Devan Dubnyk. Calm - settled and ready for the next game.
Yes losing centres suck and yes Ryan Whitney is absolutely struggling after reconstructive surgery on both his feet,
but even more the reason for everyone to keep it simple, put the puck in the corner, crash the net and score ugly.
So after 10 games - I hope thats enough for the young guns to get the wake up call and realize settle down - play hockey. Ultimate job is to win games not razzle dazzle for the oooohs and aaaahs.
Who is playing hockey right now - Gagner, Hemsky, Shutlz, Dubnyk, Hartikanen, Petrell, Petry, Smid
The rest can come back from hollywood anytime now, we need you.

I suppose you can look at it that way, but they also only have 3 regulation losses in 10 games. When a team is in a slump, you have to still collect points which is what the Oilers have done thanks to Dubnyk and the Gagner line.
Hope the others can get going soon. Not only the top line, but others have to start contributing as well. Only 3 goals in 10 games from forwards outside the top 6.
But I agree with most of what you are saying except for Yakopov...sure he makes some mistakes but 5 goals and 8 points in 10 games for a rookie is outstanding.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
Monument Valley was the host school for this year's event. Clayton Long and Griselda Rogers were the masters of ceremony. The program was the 33rd annual and highlighted 57 outstanding students.
Chancellor Joe Peterson from USU Eastern welcomed the students to the campus. He said he loves this area and region. "You may go away for awhile, to further your education; but, come back. This area needs you. You are learning Schwarzeneggers and we need you back to create and sustain our region. We are proud to host this event and hope you feel very much at home here."
Doug Wright, superintendent of the San Juan School District spoke to the Sterling Scholars calling them all winners. He told the scholars they have so much potential. He likened the scholars to Simba of the Lion King, when he was born he was held up for all to see. He had great potential. Superintendent Wright quoted the lyrics from the song, The Circle of Life. "From the day we arrive on the planet and blinking, step into the sun, there's more to see than can ever be seen more to do than can ever be done; there's far too much to take in here. More to find than can ever be found, but the sun rolling high through the sapphire sky keeps great and small on the endless round. It's the Circle of Life, and it moves us all through despair and hope, through faith and love till we find our place on the path unwinding In the Circle."
"There are many paths in life, some that lead to greatness and others to mediocrity," said Superintendent Wright. He quoted from the Robert Frost poem, "The road not taken." He said there is always a road not taken. Make the best of the road you're on. He shared a Yogi Berra quote and he said "when you arrive at a fork in the road take it."
Each of the students prepared a portfolio outlining their subject and the work they have completed in the subject area along with opportunities they have had to serve their community. The judges interviewed each of the nominees and reviewed their portfolios. Along with a pin, certificate and a $600 scholarship award, winners become eligible for scholarships at the universities and colleges in Utah.
Cassidy Augustine from Monument Valley read a tribute to parents, teachers and all those who have helped the students get ready for the competition.
The music sterling scholar Jake Carpenter played an original musical composition. Christian Johnston the sterling scholar for speech and drama presented a dramatic selection from Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde.
After the awards were presented, Brock Johansen the CEO of Emery Telcom, one of the sponsors of the event congratulated the students. He said the purpose of education is not just to teach students facts, but to teach students to think. "You are just starting your education. You have a long ways to go. Many doors will be open to you. I challenge you to get as much education as possible to better yourself. Congratulations," said Johansen.
Other winners this evening included: Chantz Richens-English from Carbon; Madison Alleman-social science from Carbon, Mary Rice, general scholarship from Grand, JoeCee Heil, business and marketing from Carbon; Jessica Pyatt-from Grand, winner in visual arts; Lexus Lathan, winner in family and consumer science from San Juan.

I've been reading a book titled Second Language Reading Research and Instruction (University of Michigan, 2009). In the book, Neil J Anderson (Brigham Young University) in his article "ACTIVE READING: The Research Base for a Pedagogical Approach in the Reading Classroom" talks about how comprehension fails when a person reads too slow. He says that researchers have found out that the minimum speed is about 180 words per minute, and that below that rate comprehension fails. We need to have a goal of at least 70% comprehension or better (comprehension = being able to understand and remember) to consider ourselves a successful average reader.
Randall Buth made a post on his blog about this back in 2011 "The Need for Some Speed in order to Read" http://www.biblicallanguagecenter.com/speed-to-read. This is a thread some may want to read and chime in on. There is also chart for timing yourself on Acts 23:1-11 to self-test how fast a person can read.

Skip to comments.Jennifer Griffin: What laser capability did Benghazi team have?
Posted on 11/04/2012 4:34:00 AM PST by maggief
Sources who have debriefed the team that was at the CIA annex the night of the attack in Benghazi say that the CIA operators from the Global Response Staff, or GRS, were equipped with Mark 48 machine guns and had two types of laser capability. Each weapon had both a passive as well as a visible laser that could be used against the Libyan attackers.
Fox News has learned the guns were fitted with PEQ-15 lasers. The passive laser is not visible to the naked eye but can help team members identify hostile forces when the shooter is wearing NODS, or Night Observation Device attached to their helmet. The visible laser system places a red dot on the attacker and warns the attacker not to shoot, encouraging them to flee the scene. US troops often use the visible laser to scare children or other civilians who find themselves in the middle of combat activity. When civilians see the laser they often back off in order not to be shot.
The GRS team that was present at the CIA annex provided security for the CIA station, as they do around the world. They are highly trained in countersurveillance, close target reconnaissance and in depth reconnaissance. Enemy fighters have learned in Afghanistan and Iraq to use their cell phones to follow or intercept these passive lasers without having night vision or NODS.
(Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...
So, if I'm understanding you right, because military forces were being readied for use in Benghazi, the President WOULD HAVE HAD TO BE ASKED FOR PERMISSION FOR MILITARY FORCES TO GO INTO LIBYA AND SINCE NONE WERE SENT, HE MUST, I SAY AGAIN, MUST HAVE DENIED THE USE OF AMERICAN MILITARY FORCES BEING SENT TO ASSIST AMERICANS IN BENGHAZI. There is no other possible explanation for why no American military forces were sent to rescue the 30 Americans under attack in Benghazi. Is this how you see it?
Yes, basically.
Now, President "Voting Present" might set up a phalanx of yes-men to keep generals with urgent requests from even finding him.
But the way the system is set up, as soon as the alarm from Benghazi goes out, the QRF in Germany (or anywhere the designated QRF is located that day) is put on alert, and even without orders from Washington, would be moved closer to the crisis to be ready faster when the POTUS gives the order to launch the rescue mission.
For Reagan or either Bush, this would have happened in real time. In the same span of minutes, the QRF in Germany (or whereever it is) is heading to C-17s or C-130s. They have contingency plans for exactly this scenario.
For Reagan or Bush, they might not even have needed to pause in Sicily, because they would have ordered them to head directly to Benghazi. This is one of their primary missions: to rescue a besieged American outpost under attack.
But if Obama pretends not to know, or not to hear, all he needs to do is NOT issue execute orders for a rescue mission with CBA.
He granted CBA for the OBL mission in Pakistan, he grants CBA when we put armed drones into Yemen etc to kill terrorists. He knows the deal.
But if he fails to grant CBA on 9-11-2012 for a Benghazi rescue mission, it can't get off the ground, because it can't enter Libyan air space.
The CIA assets in Tripolie (same distance to Benghazi as Sigonella) can be used on the orders of the acting ambassador or CIA staion chief, because they were already "in country" and not bound by the need to obtain CBA.
The 100+ Force Recon Marines in Sigonella should have arrived in Benghazi before the six CIA shooters from Tripoli, with F-16s and F-18s over Benghazi an hour earlier yet. But they can't move unless POTUS affirmatively grants CBA and hands down execute orders for the MILITARY rescue mission, using forces outside of Libya.
He never granted CBA, or the White House would have shown the world copies of the orders. Then he could totally blame the military for failing to carry out his orders.
The logic prism says therefore no CBA was granted.
Yes, I know. My comment was strictly about this article and the lame defense the Obamites are making to avoid responsibility for their massive FUBAR ACTS.
You have answered your own question. The 'timeline' spin and the eyewitness accounts obviously do not coincide. Thus, the blocking of FN from the 'briefing'...

There are three scandals here...
Denial of requests for security were a dereliction of duty. The lies and misdirection about the "video" after the attack were fraud and malfeasance under the color of authority. The inaction during the attack was something more than that.
The failure to act during the attack is the direct equivalent of desertion IMO.
ONE man had the authority to act that night.
ONE man deserted his post!
EXCLUSIVE: CIA operators were denied request for help during Benghazi attack, sources say
0bama was MIA. 0bama Is A Deserter!
This is the Tweet I've sent to every @TalkingHeadNewsPerson I can find.
@TalkingHead Obama did not grant Cross-Border Authority for a military rescue. CBA is the key to #Benghazi. PJMedia http://tinyurl.com/ctc3786
Very hard to get the word out. I thought PJ Media and Breitbart covering cross-border authority would do the trick. It seems to have stalled out. I keep hoping to hear about it on TV, haven't yet. I tweeted @AmbJohnBolton, he is going to be on FOX at 1210 eastern to talk about Benghazi. I hope he brings up CBA.
Great reporting.
OK. But only the President has the authority AND THE RESPONSIBILITY to order military forces into Libya to rescue the Americans under attack. I'm trying to reduce Obama's wiggle room on this. And he is wiggling like a big old worm.
Panetta and Dempsey and Ham and Hillary and Petraeus had the authority and responsibility TO ASK that military forces be sent into Libya, but they did not have the authority TO ORDER military forces into Libya. That order could only come from Obama. So these five can use legalese and say they never turned down a request for military assistance because only Obama could give the order. And he could try to legal out of it by saying he never turned down a request for military assistance to Benghazi, he just ignored it or postponed the decision. BUT IT WAS HIS RESPONSIBILITY TO GIVE THE ORDER TO SEND MILITARY FORCES INTO LIBYA. HE CAN'T EVADE HIS RESPONSIBILITY. He asked to be President. As a matter of fact, he's working pretty hard now to keep his job. He wants the power and prestige and benefits of being the President, but he doesn't want the responsibilities. That is just more evidence of what a dirty little money-grubbing Democrat grifter he is.
Foreign country + military op = POTUS approval.
It's so obvious even Homer Simpson knows the score.
We keep hitting it. It's all we can do.
Here's our freaking problem and it doesn't go away after an election...
Looks like the Benghazi CIA could have used one of these:
"US Army to fly Switchblade 'kamikaze' drones (airport defense against UAV attack?)"
Weighing less than two kilos, the drone is small enough to fit into a soldier's backpack and is launched from a tube, with wings quickly folding out as it soars into the air, according to manufacturer AeroVironment.
Powered by a small electric motor, the Switchblade transmits video in real time from overhead, allowing a soldier to identify an enemy, the company said in a press release last month.
"Upon confirming the target using the live video feed, the operator then sends a command to the air vehicle to arm it and lock its trajectory onto the target," it said.
The drone then flies into the "target," detonating a small explosive.
AeroVironment Switchblade
I tweeted @AmbJohnBolton, he is going to be on FOX at 1210 eastern to talk about Benghazi. I hope he brings up CBA.
That is on right about NOW!
Dammit! If he said anything about CBA I missed it.
This link works:
"U.S. Army orders its first batch of suicide drones"
Soldiers who fly hand-launched drone scouts to spot enemies on the battlefield may soon get a deadly robotic device capable of also delivering a knockout blow. The U.S. Army has ordered its first batch of small suicide drones that are capable of launching from a small tube, loitering in the sky and then diving at a target upon command.
The backpack-size "Switchblade" drone and its launch tube give individual soldiers a new level of precise control over an explosive weapon. Rather than calling in supporting artillery fire or airstrikes, soldiers can simply launch the Switchblade from out of sight, confirm a target on a live video feed from the drone, and then command the robotic device to arm itself and fly into the target at high speed.
See also the link below, which I will put up as a thread:
That is so cool and I am so glad to be retired and not have to worry about things like this. All we had to worry about was making sure the spears were sharp and the troops had decent sandals.
I agree and I enjoyed reading you piece.
See new FR thread on the Switchblade backpack kamikazi micro-drone already combat tested in Afghanistan:
Yes, I agree with all of that, and it all fits my withheld-CBA theory as well.
I saw Bolton also, not a word on CBA. Yet.
Very frustrating. One word about CBA from someone like Bolton is all that is needed. Once that basic concept is out in the mainstream of the narrative it will douse every lie and excuse that 0bama has or could come up with. McCain or Graham could do it. No doubt Graham is aware of it being on the Senate Intelligence Committee and being a JAG officer.
That point is THE ONLY RELEVANT POINT there is until it is recognized and understood nationally. Everything else is a side issue until that occurs.
So, how close is the nearest chemical weapons site to the consulate? There are no armed drones over Libya except for the armed drones watching the chemical weapons sites in Libya.
Yeah, I got it now. What a tangled web we weave.
Gen. Hunt (Ret.) and former CIA operative Mike Baker mentioned that the Military did not get permission to enter into Libya.
Points made:
1. WH knew in short order that the consulate was under attack.
2. WH had almost immediate eyes on the ground.
3. There was a very handy dandy map that showed where the F16s and the AC-130s were, where Delta Force was, etc. It conveyed how close our Military was to Benghazi. Most people don't have a clue were Libya is vis a vis Sigenalo.
4. The Military did not get permission. General Hunt, "All you needed was the order to "GO" and they were not given it." Mike Baker nodded in agreement. (That is as close as you have gotten Travis McGee.)
5. Mike Baker and General Hunt cannot understand how the Military and the intel operatives can process how the WH can say they did not have enough info to allow a go order. They had a glutton of info.
6. Delta Force was moved from Stuttgart to Sigenalo, Charlie Co. 1st 10th Special Forces Group and Marine forward area support team were ready to go. Judge Jeanie reiterates that they did not get permission from the WH and that the military "doesn't need to pack their bag they just hit it."
I think you need to email Judge Jeanie. She's pretty bright and on our side. She communicates well and I think you can get her to say "Only Obama, the POTUS, can give a CBA." So far, the retired Generals and CIA operatives cannot clearly communicate that ONLY THE POTUS CAN GIVE A CBA ORDER. (sigh)
Obumber had a front row center seat.
He personally sentenced over 30 people to die by denying them help.
He didn't think anyone would have the audacity to disobey "STAND DOWN" nor does have any understanding of the bravery of men like those at Benghazi. But for those two heroes, over 30 people would have died at the hands of the Traitor in Chief...who issued his death sentence and then went calmly bed, having an early flight to Vegas to meet.
He answered the red phone in the middle of the night.
He's not a 'deserter' - he's a TRAITOR and should be tried as such.
Her show site does not have the Hunt/Baker segment yet.
Programming note - live Hannity show on FNC tonight at 9:00 pm.
He turned his back on his post and walked away. I'd call that a deserter.

Do you ever feel like your searches are steered by "The Man Upstairs". My bad, it should be "Man or Woman Upstairs" but anyway, you know who I am referring to. During the last 6 months, there have been far too many coincidences that I have come across or signs that have popped up while I have been doing research.
This is something I wrote about two months ago as part of my genealogy journal, that I've been keeping. My journal just describes how these events, details, bits and pieces of information that I find, have had an impact on my life. Well anyway, here's goes....
While Researching Mortimer Mitchell and Family.....
All I can say is, Oprah is so right. Whatever you call God or believe God is, he sends you signs constantly to help you on your way. I think the beginning of my journey happened when I saw the image of my great grandmother Ophelia in my grandmother's house. Once that happened, the seed was planted to research and find out who were these people who came before me. I just didn't know that the seed wouldn't take root until I started really searching two years ago.
It didn't take long to get to Mortimer, since I had a lot of good information provided by my mother and my late grandmother. Ophelia to Rosa to Mortimer...one death certificate led to the next and then the next. However, for a year I was led to follow through on other branches of my family tree. The shift started in January of 2011 to dive deeper....to get more information on my main line. To flesh out these names I started to hold oh so dear. I started to look at Google Maps to look at where Riverdale, NC was in comparison to New Bern. I went over old directories and reviewed Mortimer's name next to his son Alfred, listed as farmers in the 1880 Chas. and Emerson Business Directory for New Bern. I was just drawn here. I didn't know why. I started to look at East and West Fisher Rd on the map and I recalled that my great great grandmother Rosa's sister, Mary, married a David Sampson who was affiliated with some Fisher brothers from the area. Kind of figured out that David Sampson was probably their half-brother growing up alongside the other Fisher boys in the family store. Then my cousin and godmother Melba who is also, descended from this line, became increasingly sick with cancer brought my attention back to Morehead City. My cousin Melba passed away on March 22, 2011 from throat cancer. The following week, for some reason I check the Find A Grave web-site. I hadn't been on it in awhile, so I say what the heck. It was late---after 11 pm, almost ready for bed and Bam! There they are the graves of Frank and Ophelia Bryant...their huge monument as plain as day in front of me. Whoah, right. I can't believe it. I send the researcher a huge thank you for posting the picture.
I just wanted to send you a personal thank you for posting the picture of Frank and Ophelia Bryant's grave. I hadn't been on Find A Grave for awhile and what a wonderful surprise to find today. Thank you so much. Are you a relation? Thanks again.
The following morning Tuesday, March 29th, 11:49 am
Thank you I am not related but spend half the year here. It is a very pleasant cemetery and I have spent some time this Winter taking pictures and adding memorials that had not been added yet.
Mojo 8
Wednesday goes by--still so thankful to have a picture of Frank and Ophelia's grave.
Thursday night--drawn back to Find A Grave. Bam! I first lay eyes on Caroline Bryant's grave(Frank Bryant's grandmother) ...then I look further there's Cesar Jones and Mary Jones (Alexander Jones's parents) and there are others. I am beside myself. I tell my husband. He can't believe it.
I write again to Mojo 8
Okay, you are starting to freak me out here. But something in the cosmic universe sent you to photograph my peoples' graves for me. Caroline Bryant that you added on 3/31 was one of my 3rd great grandmothers. I know you said you were taking pictures this past Winter and you just uploaded them. Do you recall if this grave was close to the Jones graves. I am in shock right now. Also, do you recall if you may have come across an unmarked grave on the Bryant plot. I contacted the cemetery sometime ago and they did not have a record for a Rosa Jones--that was Ophelia's mother but they said it was probable that she was buried in the area where her daughter lies. Wow, again so many thanks.
It's too much...just too much to take in at once. Each image I try to take in and I try to comprehend what has just happened. I look at the date for when Ophelia and Frank's grave was uploaded to Find A Grave. March 21, 2011, the day before Melba passed away.
A sign? Yes. Am I listening Lord? Yes. The Lord works in mysterious ways. Pay attention folks when he sends you a sign.
Just my way of sharing with family, friends, and anyone who will listen, the things that I have learned about my ancestors with a little bit about myself and my own little family in the mix.

"As you are aware, the girls basketball team from Emery High took the state championship in the 3A region. To honor them, Castle Dale City would like to make a resolution honoring them and give them the key to the city," said Mayor Neal Peacock.
Tayler Jewkes, Blayr Jeffs, Jessica Murray, Taylor Mann, and Brooke Jensen, along with Coach Steven Gordon, accepted the key to the city, and listened to the resolution Mayor Peacock read in their honor. The resolution proclaimed March 11, 2011, the team's day.
A public hearing was opened to receive input concerning changes to the animal control ordinance for the city. Mayor Peacock and Councilman Jeremy Jewkes have been working through the ordinance making wording changes and other small corrections. Mayor Peacock read each of the changes, along with the original wording and explained the reasoning behind the change.
One resident asked if the county commissioners were aware of the changes being made. Mayor Peacock informed the resident he has discussed the changes with Commissioner Laurie Pitchforth and she is OK with them. Another resident questioned the use of computer chips as identification for dogs. Councilman Jewkes explained the committee is still discussing the issue of rabies vaccination and licensing information being added to the chips and they have not come to any conclusions. The amendments were accepted by the city council.
Dr. Glen Jensen, from Emery Animal Health, asked the council to consider making a dog park somewhere in the city. "I know you are trying to improve things in Castle Dale, and I think a dog park would be a good thing for the town," said Dr. Jensen.
Jensen went on to explain the benefits of a dog park. He said the socialization of animals together is very helpful for them and their owners. He also said a park just for the dogs would go a long way to restricting dogs in areas where children play as this could potentially present safety and health concerns for the children.
"Dogs need their own space," Dr. Jensen said. "Successful dog parks are a great asset to a community." He suggested a location in Valley View subdivision where there is lawn already planted and the site is fenced. To start a dog park at that site, only a few items of agility equipment, along with bags and garbage cans would need to be purchased. Dr. Jensen added, "My staff and I would also like to hold free classes in the dog park. We would do obedience training and puppy classes."
Mayor Peacock stated he has had discussions with Dr. Jensen about this idea and he thinks it would be a good thing to think about. Mayor Peacock suggested the council give this idea study and consideration before beginning the process. "We will need to hold a public hearing and gather the public's comments and other information. We will try for May 12 for the public hearing and I would like the council to come to April's meeting prepared to give your ideas and suggestions," said Mayor Peacock.
Kerry Lake from the city planning and zoning reported they are working on the general plan for the city. Fire chief Richard Herring reported the burn window will be April 16-May 14. Burn permits can be downloaded from the city website and brought into City Hall prior to burning.
Council person Kollette Cologie reported the city Easter Egg hunt will be April 20 at 5 p.m. She also reported the Hope Coalition will be conducting a mock disaster at Emery High School on April 7 beginning at 8:15 a.m. It will be a staged traffic accident and is meant to show students the results of car wrecks.
Councilman Brad Giles reported he is working on the bids for the road repairs to be completed throughout the summer in the city.
The next city council meeting will be April 7 at 7 p.m. in city hall.
