That is a yummy looking tea.

The American Legion auxiliary #42 met to fill the boxes to be sent overseas on Wednesday. The boxes were stuffed completely full with a new fleece blanket, Christmas candy, personal items and letters, magazines,pictures and calendars. The packages need to be in the mail by Dec. 4 to arrive in time for Christmas in Iraq and Afghanistan.
At the recent Veteran's Day program at San Rafael Junior High, Principal Garth Johnson challenged the students to each contribute a dollar to the Operation Home Support project. So between Veteran's Day and Dec. 1 the students brought in $130. Jan Hess, project director picked up the money from Principal Johnson. She said they are so thankful for the interest the students have taken in the project. Another side note to the Veteran's Day program came when art teacher at the school donated $100 to the Operation Home Support program in the name of her sister Nancy Martinez. Martinez will receive a nice card from the ladies auxiliary to thank her and her sister Jackie Weihing for their generosity. Janet Damron is also involved in the project her dear friend Shirley Michell, known fondly "Grandma Frickert" is more than 80 years old and lives in the Salt Lake area. She knits hats for soldiers each year and this year has knitted more than two dozen hats to be included in the care packages.
Everything for the soldiers is stored within ziplock bags and then included in the box. The soldiers reuse these bags to store their personal belongings to keep the sand out of their things.
The Orangeville scouts have also become involved in the project. They wrote a personal letter to each of the soldiers which also included a picture of the individual scout. The scouts wanted to do something nice for the families left at home during the holidays without their loved ones, so they enlisted the help of their scout leader Lisa Jewkes and they purchased the supplies to make a pumpkin roll for each of the families. Scout leader Jewkes will do the baking for the scouts and the scouts will deliver the treats to the families of the servicemen.
Several of the ladies showing up to package the gifts brought in more donations from themselves and other contributors. The monetary gifts help to pay for the postage for the items and to buy items for future packages. Several volunteers said they would take a package home and mail it themselves to help out even further with the project.
They began the project of Operation Home Support in April of 2004. They send packages to soldiers overseas who are residents of Emery County or who have loved ones in the county. People submit the soldiers names and addresses to the auxiliary and they take it from there. They have served hundreds of soldiers since the beginning and currently have nine soldiers on the list for the Christmas packages.
They send out six-seven packages a year at holidays and Veteran's Day to each of the soldiers.
Some of the soldiers they have sent to are on their second or third tour of duty and some of them have arrived safely back home.
Random packages without names cannot be sent and homemade baked items cannot be sent. A soldier's name must be on the package. The auxiliary has been involved in a number of fund raisers to get funds to mail out the items. They have held bake sales, yard sales and other events. They also place donation boxes out to collect the items to send. Some of the items include packaged goodies, music CDs, socks, pictures, books and other items the soldiers need.
The boxes are filled to capacity and ready to mail.
They include a personal letter to the soldier in each box. The letters are written by the ladies in the auxiliary. They have received many thank yous from the soldiers who have received the boxes. One picture had the soldier holding the box he received with a big smile on his face. The ladies try to include different items in the boxes each time.
The Christmas boxes include a fleece blanket the ladies made with the initials of each soldier on their blanket. Some of the soldiers don't ever receive any letters or packages from home. Hess said many of the soldiers they send to, share their boxes with the other soldiers.
"I know they appreciate what we are doing and what we are trying to accomplish. This is a very rewarding project. We appreciate all the help we have from the volunteers," said Hess.
Those currently serving in war zones with connections to Emery County include: Richard Larson, parents, Chuck and Vicki Larsen, Ferron; Jason Swegle, wife: Stacy Swegle and mother-in-law Joy Bloomer, of Ferron; Jesse Thompson, mother, Deanna Thompson, Castle Dale; Ryan Stream, parents, Steve and Carol Ann Stream, Huntington; Dustin Nielsen, parents, Shane and Laurel Nielsen,Castle Dale; Jason Larsen, parents, Russell and Kathy Larsen, Castle Dale; Robert Sterbutzel, Don and Jean Morlan, Ferron, mother and father in law; Anthony Ritzdorf, wife, Brooks Ann and mother in law, Ann Behling of Ferron; Skyler Carpenter, grandson of Ron and Joanne Carpenter of Huntington.

Air Force personnel charged with tracking space debris in orbit to ensure that it doesn't interfere with operational satellites will begin using a new suite of automated equipment later this year to perform the complex task, reports Philip Ewing at DOD Buzz.
Air Force Chief of Staff Norman Schwartz said recently that the service plans to replace the nearly 30-year-old manual system used by personnel at the Joint Space Operations Center (JSPOC) with the first increment of the new system toward the end of 2012.
The next-generation tracking apparatus, known as the JSPOC Mission System, will feature improved processing of sensor observations that track approximately 22,000 manmade objects in orbit, the story said.

The only problem with the little ghosties is that they are very filling! One can of coconut milk makes enough whipped cream to ghostify two mini tarts or one big one, but then you can only eat a little sliver of tart before you're super stuffed. Doing only a small little cluster of ghosts in the center of the tart is a good alternative! Enjoy!

Thank you for the super video! Now if only I could magically get my mixer from Madison to Seattle.ReplyDeleteReplies
You might be able to use a whisk... but then your arm might just fall off! :DDelete
Awesome tutorial, River! I'm digging the tunes, too. Thanks for all the hard work you put into it!ReplyDeleteReplies
Thank you! I hope the video helps those who can't get their coconut milk to cooperate. I must have listened to a million songs trying to find what I wanted - in the end they all started to sound a like! :DDelete
Love the video (my fave part is the finger through the hole--ha ha!!). I think I see the problem. . . I don't have a kitchenaid, so I'm whipping with a hand beater, and I'm just not getting that kind of stiffness/volume. It's like a creme fraiche texture. . . pourable, not pipeable. Did enjoy the song, too, though! :DReplyDeleteReplies
It's a wormy finger! :DDelete
You could be on to something! This was the first time I used my big mixer to make this (I needed something hands-free so I could control the camera.) I always use my hand mixer which is actually WAY more powerful. If your mixer is not as powerful as my fairly weak stand mixer (it's actually a Hamilton Beach, not a Kitchenaid!) then that could be the problem! In case you are interested, my super powerful hand mixer is a 5 Speed Cuisinart Power Select. I don't see that one on Amazon.com anymore, but they do have a 7 speed.
Thanks, River. I'm going to try this again! I refuse to be beaten down by coconut cream! (or beaten up--? just beaten). ;-)Delete
Good luck - and just so you know, your whipped coconut cream from Sweet Freedom is actually lighter and tastier! I wish I could whisk you away to my kitchen so you could test-drive my mixer! Haha haha *snort*Delete
Oh, BTW, I did use Thai Kitchen, full-fat organic. . . still didn't work for me. :(ReplyDeleteReplies
There goes my theory!Delete
Aw, this is such a fun video tute, River! I love the wonky ghost that magically disappears only to be replaced with a better shaped ghostie!ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks, Mandee! Poor wonky ghost didn't make the cut! :DDelete
Great video. How much powdered sugar would you recommend?ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks! It depends on how sweet you want it to be. Two tablespoons of sifted powdered sugar is enough for me, but you can always taste it and keep adding more until you're happy with it. The more powdered sugar you add, the stiffer the whipped cream will be!Delete
So cute! I mean scary! Nice video. I love the exaggerated hand movements, haha.ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks! Melodramatic hands - I have them! :DDelete
What a cute video! I never made coconut whipped cream. WHY?ReplyDeleteReplies
Why indeed! I think you need to make some now! :DDelete
ahhh! that was the cutest video ever! I'm making a chocolate pie today. those ghosts are definitely topping my pie. yipee!ReplyDeleteReplies
Thank you! I hope you have fun decorating your ghostly pie! Save me a slice? :)Delete
Thanks so much for making this, River. I super thoroughly enjoyed watching it I need to try straight away. I'm thinking trifle with ghosts on top? I dunno, but I've never made trifle before either and it sounds good!!!ReplyDelete
You're so welcome, and I am so glad you enjoyed it! Trifle with ghosts on top sounds perfect! Will you save me some? :)Delete

Mine was drippy too. However I think it is because my fridge wasn't SUPER cold. I'm going to put it in the freezer next time to totally separate the liquid from the fat.ReplyDeleteReplies
Good idea! I made some Strawberry Santa Hats today using coconut whipped cream and it wasn't quite as firm as it usually is, but I did use a different brand that I was trying out. It's called "Golden Star". It made more cream, but it was pretty soft. Making coconut whipped cream is such tricky business!Delete
I would like to make this cream to frost a cake for a birthday; I will definitely have to move the cake to carry to the party, is there a chance that this cream will get runny?Replies
I wouldn't risk it because it is a very soft cream. Would it be a big hassle to take the cream in a bowl inside a cooler and frost the cake when you get there? Then you could just bring a whisk to fluff it up and a spatula to cover the cake when you get to the party. If you sweeten it with powdered sugar you will get a firmer cream than if you use maple syrup or another liquid sweetener. Good luck!Delete

"I got these in my normal size. The toe opening does not expose much of your toes unless your toes are very long, which is why I only gave these a 4 instead of 5 stars. With that said.. they are very comfortable (the heels are not as high as listed in the product description- mine measured about 3.875" instead of 4.25". I love the rich teal suede. The upper part of the shoe fits like a glove so I'll probably keep them. I have more than a dozen pairs of shoes from Levity brand- quality is superb as usual."

Class is always in
Robin Brownlee
July 11 2009 12:48AM
The name Joe Sakic and the word "class" have appeared in the same sentence countless times since Burnaby Joe's retirement announcement on Thursday. In this case, the term doesn't begin to describe him. It's an understatement.
After sneering, moaning and lecturing about what a me-first person Dany Heatley is this week, it was an interesting emotional intersection for me when I sat down to think about Sakic bidding farewell.
Sakic's NHL career speaks for itself and has been well-documented since he made it official he's hanging up the blades after 20 NHL seasons. He's a sure-fire hall-of-famer. The numbers, all of the personal awards and the Stanley Cup rings are on the record for all to see. He was a special player.
Having known Joe since his first season with the Swift Current Broncos in 1986-87, I can tell you without any reservation, he's an even more special person. That's saying something.
Framed by all the talk about Heatley, specifically the criticisms I and others have offered in terms of his selfishness and sense of entitlement -- I'm not sure I'd be any different had I been a millionaire by the age of 21 -- Sakic's virtues seem even more vivid.
In a sport that's filled with wonderful young men when compared to other pro leagues, Sakic stands out as one of only a handful of players I know who isn't one iota different today than he was when he was a kid riding the bus to and from Swift Current.
For all the millions of dollars he's made, for having earned a place in the record books as one of the greatest players to skate in the NHL, Sakic is very much the same guy today as he was 20 years ago. Of the players I know, I can only put a handful -- Mark Recchi and Jarome Iginla, to name two -- in the same category.
Class? The epitome of it.
Taking the time
There are lots of NHL players who give greatly of themselves in the communities in which they live. Oilers captain Ethan Moreau was honoured for his good deeds this season when he was named recipient of the King Clancy Award. The list of nominees for that award is a long one.
Sakic is one of those players who believes in giving back, who makes an effort, who realizes he's lucky to be healthy and wealthy and famous and that he can make a difference.
While I can't do the moment justice in words, I'd like to share a snapshot from three or four years ago at the Pepsi Center that tells you something about Sakic.
On this trip to Denver, a little fellow from Edmonton -- I want to say his name was Matthew -- who was a staunch Oilers fan, met up with the team at the arena for the morning skate. The little guy, he was six or seven, had bone cancer in one of his legs.
Wide-eyed, just as you'd expect, Matthew had his face pressed up against the glass watching the Avalanche skate. I made a remark to Colorado PR man Jean Martineau about Matthew and asked if it might be possible if he could get a signed puck or something from somebody like, say, Joe. Jean said he'd pass it along.
A couple minutes later, Joe, who'd been off the ice awhile and was on his way home, poked his head out of the dressing room door. He spotted Matthew and motioned to me with one finger -- not that finger -- as if to say, "Just a minute."
Not long after, Matthew was quietly guided down a hall to a room wear Sakic was waiting. No cameras. No reporters. Nothing on the record. This wasn't a photo-op. Joe introduced himself and shook Matthew's hand.
To say the kid was beaming is to understate. Joe spent at least 10 minutes talking to him, He handed over a signed photo, personalized of course, and a puck and some other stuff.
I'll never forget the look of joy and excitement on that little boy's face when he walked back down the hall as Joe headed the other way. Never.
That's Joe.

Sakic to come out of retirement and play for the Oilers (e5)
July 11 2009, 01:14AM
@ Junk:
He and Stevie Y were my favs growing up. Sakic always seemed like he had ice water running through his veins during games. His press conference got me chocked up because I've never seen him loose his composure.
Thanks for the story, it doesn't surprise me, but it's too bad when a sport looses one of its good guys.
Favorite player of all time. I grew up watching him play in Quebec. Followed him to Colorado where I watched him win that cup in the phenomenal story that was the playoffs in 95-96. He was a champion, even if we dropped the ball in Turin. He lead us to gold and lead us to so many points in hockey. It was incredibly difficult to see him retire as he was an idol and role model to me.
One of the greatest of all time. Burnaby Joe, yo.
I think one of the classiest moments in hockey was after the Avs won their second Cup in 2001. Joe, having already won a cup and having had then chance to hoist it himself, turned and gave the honour to Ray Bourque.
As both a Sakic fan and a Bourque fan, I must say I got rather choked up to see a display of class like that.
One of the greatest moments in NHL history.
I remember his goal against NJ in the finals, between Stevens legs and top shelf on Marty. Truly one of the best goals I've ever seen and Joe made it look so effortless.
July 11 2009, 02:06AM
Some guys are just born to be great at whatever they choose to do with their lives. The rest of us are just lucky if we can witness it.
"Canada trying to hang on and get a break, it's gonna be a break! It is Joe Sakic ... scores! Joe Sakic, scores! And that makes it 5-2 Canada! Surely, that's gotta be it!"
I will never forget him in that game.
One of the best ever. I remember a game at rexall this year, they were having a ceremony for something and they sent Ryan Smyth up instead of Joe. I couldnt believe it. They sent a money grabbing crybaby loser like that instead of one of the best of all time?? Of course Ryan was booed.
Thanks for sharing Robin...character can and should never be underestimated in any walk of life.

Amen, sister... ;)
I lived in Vancouver from 2000-2002 and I worked in Burnaby and in and around Vancouver in general. Everyone who I met who asked where I was from would ask about the Oilers and then ask me what I thought about Burnaby Joe. Finally after that they would ask me my thoughts on the Canucks. That's the kind of impact Joe has had on his hometown. He wasn't even playing for his hometeam and locals still we're prouder to talk about him then they're own team. I also had the pleasure of driving on Joe Sakic Way in Burnaby many times (near the Burnaby 8 Rinks arena) where the Nuck's would practice. Congrats to you Burnaby Joe! A great ambassador and from all accounts a great guy!!
July 11 2009, 07:55AM
In the old Funk & Wagnalls under "class"... Mr. Joseph Sakic. Thanks for being a great Canadian Joe!!
As a hockey player in Colorado I could not stand this guy, because he and Forsberg would walk all over us in our own barn at will. To the same sort of degree or even higher of a degree than Modano and Zubov.
Lets face it. This guy was one of the top Oiler killers of the past 12 years.
But since he is a nice guy amd a Canadian I guess we can give him an Oilersnation pass and some kudos for a great career.
But, they still pissed me off on most nights they were here.

lol, but i bet if on one of those nights, you were able to meet him. (parking lot, whatever) you would have left with a whole different outlook.
farewell sakic, you ARE one of the best and the game will miss you.
It's nice to hear that some of these guys actually realize what playing pro sports is, and what it does for them. Sakic always seemed to be a person who understood and loved the honor of playing the game, not just for the money, and doing whatever it took to win.
The fact that he spent his entire career with one nHL organization speaks volumes about his character.

You're right. With somne people you could argue that gesture was a made-for-TV moment, but that's not the case with Sakic. He was always happy to share the spotlight with somebody else. Off the ice, he was kind, polite and generous, and it was no act. He was the same guy when the cameras were off and the reporters were gone as we was when the public eye was on him.
July 11 2009, 10:21AM
Thanks for the story, Robin.
He's going to be missed, even by people who wished he'd just skip games in Edmonton.
July 11 2009, 10:24AM
Thanks Robin. I've always felt Sakic was a player it was impossible to hate. That's saying something considering he played on the same team as both Claude Lemieux and Patrick Roy. The sport is a little worse off now that he's gone, I think.
How long until he is in a management position? Assistant GM in Colorado by next year I imagine.
July 11 2009, 10:38AM
Maybe they can recruit Sakic to run an orientation camp for new players like they have in the NBA. Apparently, theirs involves Bill Russell coming in and trying to convey the message to not be dumbasses. Who knows, maybe a kick in the pants and being told to stop being selfish by Sakic may have made a positive difference on old whatshisname.
Well said Robin, well said. The game has lost a great ambassador. It is too bad that he had to go out riddled by injury.

One memory of Joe Sakic that I'll never forget was when he stood up for his linemates and beat the crap out of Doug Gilmour during an Avs vs. Hawks game.
And looking at those old hilights of him in a Nords jersey wearing #88 was a nice trip back into memory lane. Mr.Klutch himself will be missed. Their is only one Joe F*ckin' Sakic!

"Canada trying to hang on and get a break, it's gonna be a break! It is Joe Sakic … scores! Joe Sakic, scores! And that makes it 5-2 Canada! Surely, that's gotta be it!" I will never forget him in that game.
Vintage Bob Cole. A "Henderson-like" game by Sakic indeed.
Please forward to Mr. Heatley @ #69 Brokeback Mountain, Kelowna B.C.

Oh, I totally agree! hxxp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dd2SB51EQzw
"How ya like them apples, Gilmour?" haha.
Remembering Joe Sakic and Steve Yzerman makes me even angrier at Peter Puck for trading away Gretzky. Not every club has had the good fortune to land a true "franchise player"... DAMN YOU PETER!!!
When I think of Joe Sakic it reminds me of a beer comercial: My name is Joe, and I am Canadian
July 11 2009, 11:52AM
say it aint so joe
@Brownlee Did that little boy Matthew make beat the cancer? I hope so.
Joe Sakic is an incredible hockey player and obviously when the GM of the Avs is almost brought to tears, tells you the type of person Sakic was.
Heart, character, class and always showed up. The epitomy of an NHL superstar and he's Canadian which makes him even more special. You never heard a thing from Sakic or his agent demanding trades or more money. If there was anything regarding contracts or situations out there, it was kept very low key. He didn't whine about his playing time, didn't go to the press about his coaches, team mates or what he's not getting. Sakic just went out and played the game. True professional in every sense of the word.
The NHL needs more players like Joe as his class of player is a slow, dying breed in the NEW NHL.
Farewell Joe and thanks for the memories!
I wonder if now that he is retired he will come out and address the Graham James scandal.
I do not think he was one of James' Boys (although there was one maybe two that remained unnamed), but he was on that team and must know something.
He has never addressed the situation publicly, but after what Sheldon Kennedy went through in life it would be nice to hear from Joe on the matter.
Amazing hockey player, but even more importantly, amazing person. We'll miss seeing Joe on the ice, but wish him luck in all of his future endeavours!

Wow..Peter Pan (or should I say Tinkerbell?) go back to Neverland!

When it comes to players like Sakic and Yzerman I think that all fans wish them well,these guys are class acts they take the time to talk to fans and are level headed,there are many players in the league that could learn alot from Sakic and yzerman. It is to bad that once some of these guys join the show, they get a case of swollen head syndrome.
Jonathan Willis wrote:
He's going to be missed, even by people who wished he'd just skip games in Edmonton.
Amen to that. I would always cringe when the puck came within five feet of Sakic in the slot as it always seemed to find a way to get onto his stick. His shot was unmatched in the game from the top of the circles in.
Question: Yzerman or Sakic. Who ranks higher all-time in your books?

Tough question. I'd probably go with Yzerman, as his defensive play tips the balance.
July 11 2009, 06:06PM
@ Homie: Sakic. Joe was better in the last five year of his career than Yzerman was. That's the difference, for me.
Glad to have you Joe! You will be missed.
@ Mike76:
james preyed on fringe guys not superstars.
Sakics billet is famous in the WHL and as far as surrogate mothers go.....a grizzly bear wouldnt hold a candle to her if someone (james included) messed with one of her boys.
Sakic was pure magic in junior... you think the oil got hammered by him.. try being the saskatoon blades. Pure class, no dive in the glass after a big goal, but rather.... Ive been here before and Ill be here again calm..... the way it should be IMO.

Military History Buffs recently scoped out Mt. Vernon on a cold, windy day. We had not visited the site in more than 25 years when we were given a tour of the house on a school field trip. By intention, the house hasn't changed much and, to their credit, the Mount Vernon Ladies Association convinced the federal government to purchase land across the Potomac from Mt. Vernon in order to preserve the historic view. (Imagine how disconcerting it would be to tour this meticulously preserved 18th century house and then have your historic frame of mind jarred by 21st century, cookie cutter housing developments just across the river from the back yard!) The historic interpreters do a formidable job of telling you what colonial life was like and what kind of plantation owner George Washington was. You learn about how he liked to work at his desk, where he slept, how he treated his slaves and how close he was to Mrs. Washington. And you learn all of this through artifacts. Which is nice. But it tells you little about the leadership trajectory of General Washington, the challenges he faced as the Revolution leader and the legendary accomplishments he achieved in that War and as our nation's first president.
Then, we walked into the new Visitors Center and were blown away. Not only is the building well integrated into the landscape of the grounds, but it achieves what artifacts and the house never could. We slowly walked through the path of the exhibit (we didn't want to miss anything!) that guides you through the life of George Washington and, through images, sounds, interactive touch screens, and surround-sound videos, we really became acquainted with the man, the General and the President. We got to know him intimately – at various ages and stages in his life. We experienced George Washington. We look forward to going back in the spring and the summer to explore the distillery, walk the grounds and to go through the exhibit again! And what is amazing to us is that this museum and historic house has been funded by several generations of determined women (the Mount Vernon Ladies Association) who underwrote the entire project with private dollars!
So, why can't the Navy do this? We've been to Pensacola – hats off to that facility and organization that has made the National Museum of Naval Aviation publicly accessible and a true educational experience, taking advantage of the latest in museum technology and best practices. The Air Force has a great museum in Dayton. We can't say enough about the inspirational and educational new Marine Corps Museum in Quantico. And we hope that the new Army museum will be first rate, although its planned location in Belvoir is problematic. But, what about the Navy? Aside from Pensacola, why can't the rest of the Navy museums get into the 21st century? They need to have fewer glass exhibit cases, musty uniforms and inoperable cannons. They need to have more exhibits like the ones in Pensacola and the USS Midway museum that give visitors of all ages a taste of the Navy experience – both past and present. Let visitors actually feel what it was like on a submarine with no air conditioning in World War II. Challenge people to explore a swift boat and give them a view of what the Navy crew might have seen along the banks of the Mekong Delta. Give kids a chance to really feel how hard it is to train to be a Navy SEAL. That's what will give visitors an understanding and an appreciation for the Navy.

NOT IT! We actually had a unit that included Arthur, and by the time it was over, I never wanted to hear that aardvark again.ReplyCancel
@K—good question….ReplyCancel
I thought Arthur was a bear of some kind…
I took the hit but I couldn't finish it :-\
Recorded in a crowd, some singer sings the theme song of a kid cartoon.

Midday music festival and some Wyclef knock off starts the gentle strummings of a PBS theme.
Wyclef 2.0 sings about how everything is wonderful wonderful everyday everyday.
White girl down front seems to recognize the song, lifting her Caucasian limbs to the sky.
Wonderful wonderful everydaaaaay
Bromaine Lettuce in the back tears up thinking about a childhood lost in the streets of Whapackanetta and let's out a guttural call of the frat boy:
Wonderful wonderful everydaaaay
Wyclef 2.0 tells the audience he loves when people sing along. Only Caucasian arm waver and Bro v Wade seem to know the tune.
Wonderful wonderful

Cocoa! How's come you only show up here?ReplyCancel
Most of the kids in the unit thought he was either a squirrel or a bear.
@Violet, anthropomorphism is a long-held tradition in fantasy literature. One of the working theories is that humanizing an animal gives kids (and adults) an easier access to understanding differences. Bears are scary, but who is scared of Yogi Bear? Pigs are dirty, but what about Miss Piggy? Big dogs are scary, but who is scared of Clifford the Big Red Dog?
One thing I did like about Arthur was the adult references (ala Pixar) and guest stars. Yo-yo Ma, Alex Trebek, Niel Gaiman (swoon!), Alan Cumming, Philip Seymore Hoffman among many.ReplyCancel

By GARY ARRINGTONSports writer
At the Huntington City October City council meeting, the new Huntington City fire station was the topic talked about the most. Although construction work is progressing now, the fact that the construction is more than two months behind schedule is a hot topic.
The construction firm, Valley Builders out of Gunnison, blames the metal building manufacturer for the delay. The City Council acknowledges that company's role in the delay but blames the general contractor since they should control their sub-contractors.
Councilman Travis Larsen stated that the contractor on the fire station has an $800 per day penalty in the contract for every day they go over the contracts finish date. The penalty could be for thousands of dollars. The city attorney is reviewing.
Councilman Jerry Livingston reminded city residents that the city ordinance on vehicles or recreational vehicles such as motor homes or travel trailers should not be parked on city roads for longer than 72 hours. This is especially true during the winter when snow will need to be plowed.
Livingston also stated that several sections of sidewalk around town have been removed and replaced where those sections were either sunken or severely cracked. He also reported that several new blocks of curb and gutter are finally going in.
Mayor Hilary Gordon reported that city employees reroofed the city shop building and they saved the city thousands over having it done by an outside contractor. The roof needed replacement now as many sections of shingles were gone and the wood was exposed.
The council also agreed to put in a small building at the dumpster site for city employees that are working there. Since hiring an employee to work the site, the dumpster site is looking good and people are generally following the rules.

Paul Brach Lecture Series: Jessica Rath
ART: "Jessica's sculptures, photographs and installations investigate intimate points at which human intervention has changed the course of the natural world. She questions the naturalist's, artist's and scientist's drive to contain and beget beauty within the landscape, whether in the cultivated ground of agriculture and in our own backyards. Sublime and haunting, the work evokes a kind of grace found within survival and diversity at a molecular level. Recent solo exhibitions include Jack Hanley Gallery, NY; Pasadena Museum of California Art; Ben Maltz Gallery, Otis College of Art and Design; and the Torrance Art Museum. She has received many awards including a Center for Cultural Innovation Investing in Artists grant, Durfee Foundation ARC (Artist Resource for Completion) grants, a Metrolab Commission Grant, and the Bridge Residency Award from Headlands Center for the Arts, Sausalito, CA.
Jessica was born in Charleston, West Virginia and grew up in the southern Missouri Ozarks and Vermont. She received a BA (1990) in Sociology from University of Missouri, MFA (1996) from California Institute for the Arts and studied at School of the Art Institute in Chicago. Jessica works in Los Angeles, where she has resided for 18 years."

In a nearly unanimous vote at its town meeting Monday night, the town of Amherst chose to opt-out of a controversial federal immigration program called Secure Communities. The vote ensures that requests to hold undocumented immigrants by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency, or ICE, will not be honored by the Amherst Police Department.
Secure Communities is an effort by ICE to remove undocumented immigrants who pose a threat to national security or public safety. Under the program, ICE can make a request, called a detainer, to hold a suspected illegal immigrant. It can also run background checks to identify the immigration status of an individual after an arrest. Jeff Napolitano, a principal supporter of Amherst's resolution, says the town's participation in background checks is federally mandated.
"What isn't out of the town's hands, and what was declared yesterday, was that the police department will not honor requests to hold undocumented immigrants."
In a statement, Ross Feinstein, a spokesperson for ICE said that though ICE has not sought to compel compliance among local police, "Jurisdictions that ignore detainers bear the risk of possible public safety risks."
Amherst Chief of Police Scott Livingstone says he is fully supportive of the resolution, though his department has never received an ICE detainer.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
In the December meeting of the school board there were a number of football players there in support of their football coach Jim Jones. Jones has been the football coach for a number of years. He took three years off to rest and now has been back coaching the last couple of years.
These football players are due to lose their coach from an unwritten policy that coaches cannot be administrators, or administrators can't be coaches. Coach Jones became the principal at Canyon View Junior High beginning with the current school year. Canyon View is a small junior high school. This past football season, Coach Jones only missed eight hours of school due to football.
Football has a shorter season than most sports and with only one game a week. Practices take place in the summer and after school. Coach Jones has had a very supportive coaching staff. They take care of the junior varsity and sophomore games. On game days the assistant coaches ride on the bus with the team members and Coach Jones drives the equipment trailer, so he doesn't have to leave as early.
Canyon View is a school of less than 190 students. Each of these students are important and their academic education is very important. I think you can take care of a school and take care of a football team, too. I would much prefer a principal who has the ability to interact with students.Seeing a coach on a football field makes the coach very human. I would rather see a principal out coaching than sitting in an office somewhere waiting to retire.
Sometimes when teachers move from the classroom to the administrative office, they lose touch with students. I guess I can say this as I have had five students move through the Emery School District and have seen a lot in my many years of having students and working with teachers.
I don't think it hurts a thing to allow Coach Jones to continue to coach. The most prevalent thing we heard that night was if Coach Jones is allowed to continue to coach then where does it end. This would set some kind of precedence, if he is allowed to coach. It doesn't make sense to me, to take a coach with his years of experience and bench him, just because he is now in charge of a tiny school. It would make more sense if he was the principal of a large high school with thousands of students, but get real, this is a small junior high in Emery County.
I would think if there isn't a policy anywhere that says you can't coach and be an administrator, then there needs to be a clearly written and spelled out policy. There was a vice-principal at the high school who coached high school softball. Why was that OK?
It seems a little crazy that the last few people who have been through the administrative endorsement process are also coaches. One of them took the girls basketball program and led them to two state championship games in as many years and things look good this year, too. This same man was just recently named the Emery baseball coach and his assistant is also one of those future administrators. But, under the current system, these coaches will likewise be benched, if they seek a higher administrative position at a school. Granted, basketball takes you away from a school, more than football does and the season is longer.
So, that's why I think we need a clear written policy. It can't be just a verbal agreement. Why are we training coaches, just so we can lose them when they become principals in future years.
So I think we need some rules and guidelines. There are rules and guidelines pertaining to everything else. Why not this. When Coach Jones was being interviewed and considered for the principal at Canyon View, it was explained to him, that he would have to give up coaching baseball for 2009 and could finish the 2008 football season, but could not coach after that. That sounded OK at the time, but now as the reality has set in, and the possibility of not being able to coach arises, then Coach Jones wonders why also. He was able to fulfill his duties as a principal and his duties as a coach and neither of which suffered. His ability to coach and his experience with the kids and bringing out the best in his players is something that we as a county and school district, should not want to lose.
Why are we training our coaches to be administrators just to lose them as coaches. I think administrators and coaches are important, but I think there can be a balance and some reason involved in the selection process. If a coach cannot, absolutely cannot coach then it should be written in stone, it shouldn't be something hypothetical out there, that can be ignored or enacted when convenient. If it is entirely impossible and unworkable, then say so, get it in writing. Don't let these students suffer because they don't know who their coach is going to be and they don't understand all the mumbo jumbo involved.

Canada defeats Puerto Rico at Olympic qualifierLONG BEACH, Calif. (May 8, 2012) – Toon Van Lankvelt of Rivers, Man., scored a game high 16 points Tuesday as Canada dumped Puerto Rico 25-19, 25-20, 25-13 at the Olympic qualifying tournament in men's volleyball.
Canada improves its record to 2-0 in round robin play and will face world number-five Cuba for first spot in its group and a bye to the semifinal on Wednesday at 9 p.m. (EDT). The tournament champion earns a ticket to the 2012 London Olympics.
''It's nice to get these wins, we're only going to get better,'' said middle blocker Steve Brinkman of Bowmanville, Ont., playing in his 213th international match for Canada. ''We are really finding our rhythm and are excited about the rest of this tournament.''
Although Canada is ranked 18th in the world and Puerto Rico 17th, the Canadians dominated the match with a strong blocking game. Led by Van Lankvelt and Brinkman with six points on the block each, the Canadians outblocked their opponents 15-3.
''Our blocking system continued to work well tonight,'' said Canada's head coach Glenn Hoag. ''It really frustrated Puerto Rico. Our guys stayed concentrated and respected the game plan. There was some concern with our service game, but overall I'm really pleased.''
Schmitt continued to fire missiles on the attack adding 14 points for the Canadians while Libero Dan Lewis of Oakville, Ont., displayed amazing ball control and retrieval abilities.
''Dan is our leader on defence,'' said Hoag. ''He really keeps it organized and he was really well concentrated tonight and had a super game.''
Brinkman likes the consistency on the Canadian team.
''Every year we are finding it easier and easier to find our game early in the season,'' he said. ''The training we have done with this group over the last couple of years has really paid off. I've been with some great Canadian teams, but this group I feel is something special.''
In other matches, Tuesday, Cuba defeated the Dominican Republic 25-15, 25-21, 25-15 and Mexico beat Trinidad and Tobago 25-18, 19-25, 25-21, 25-22. The U.S., played Costa Rica in Tuesday's late match.
The first place teams in each group get a bye to the semis while second and third cross over in the quarterfinals on Thursday.

Ok characters will be 1st level. Hmmm, I didn't think they started off at 1st in that adventure, but more or less we will run through T1 Village of Hommlet first then the Temple part.
Also roll 4d6 & remove the lowest die for stats. Max gold starting. Also max hps as well.
Also Spike, can you send me your house rules for half-orcs? As I'll let them buggers in as player characters.

Here's a blog post by some other dude who likes halforcs and has some common-sense character guidelines that seem to fit the spirit of S&W quite well. >> http://dndborderland...-orc-class.html
Lemme know what you think, and I'll dice her up tomorrow.
PS think this over...half-orc thief-wannabe. I made her two years ago for a Labyrinth Lord thieves'-guild type game set in the "City Stake of the Unvisible Ogre-Lord" (City-state of the Invincible Overlord) setting. I'll dig around in the charsheet reliquary tomorrow and see if she turns up.

I think I'm gonna go get the pdf printed at Staples later this week. I did a online test it'll cost me about 19.00 bucks to get a softcover with a spiral binding printed up. If I hit ReaperCon 12 next year seriously thinking about running a S&W game sometime over the weekend.
thanks for the links Spike. I was also thinking about what you said about the half-orc, maybe a give a option of -2 to either Cha or Int, but offset that with a +2 to Str or Con. I'm not sure. Also in the version I have (May 11 printing) they treat non-humans as multi-class characters. Here is the page discussing this:
A Quick Historical Note
The rules of the Original Game are exceedingly unclear about the details of how some multi-classing operates. Swords & Wizardry treats each multi-class in the same basic fashion, which is certainly not the only possible interpretation of the Original Game rules.
Multi-Classed Characters
Dwarfs and Elves may have more than one class at a time, called �multi-classing.� Each race has certain allowed combinations for player characters. Halfling and Human characters may have only a single class. Multiple classes are written with a slash as a separator, as are multiple levels. For instance, a dwarf Fighter/Thief may be level 6/7 (listing the Fighter level and then the Thief level).
Humans cannot be true multi-class characters, but can still be dual-class characters. See the earlier sidebar, �Dual-Classed Human Characters,� for details.
Hit Dice
Multi-class characters begin with a single hit die. Each multi-class hit die is calculated by rolling the appropriate die for each class and averaging the result. A multi-classed character is limited to a total of 9 hit dice no matter what combination of classes is used. After reaching 9 HD, the character gains only 1 hit point per additional level.
Abilities and Limitations
The multi-classed character acts with the abilities of both (or all three) classes at one time, and is also subject to the limitations of each class at once. Therefore, although a Fighter/Thief can choose to wear armor of any kind, the character cannot use thief skills while wearing any armor heavier than leather. In addition, an Elf cannot cast spells while wearing non-magical armor, although magical armor does not inhibit spell casting (that�s for Elves only, by the way).
Saving Throws
The saving throw of a multi-classed character is the best available one from the character�s multiple character classes.
Experience Points
Any experience points received are divided evenly among all the classes of a multi-classed character, even when the character can no longer advance in one or more classes (in which case, those XP are simply lost). You still need to keep track, though, because it may be important for when you gain more hit dice (see below). Multi-classed characters do not receive bonuses to experience points, regardless of their Attribute scores.
Level Advancement
The abilities of a class are gained as soon as a new level is achieved in that class, but a new hit die is not gained until the character has advanced a level in all classes. In other words, a
dwarven Fighter/Thief would not gain a �Thief� hit die at level 1/2; instead, the character would receive a second multi-class hit die (the averaged result of the roll of a d8 and a d4) after reaching second level as a Fighter also.
If a multi-classed character reaches the point where one class is "capped," and the character cannot advance in that class any more, the character still only gains a new hit die when both (or all three) levels would have been reached. For example, an elven Fighter/Magic-User reaches 4th-level Fighter and 4th-level Magic-User with 10,000 XP, when the Magic-User experience reaches 5th level. Now the player rolls a new hit die, rolling a d8 and a d4 and taking the average of the result. When the character later reaches 16,000 XP, normally that would mean gaining a level as a Fighter. However, since an Elf is capped at 4th level as a Fighter, there is no result. When the Elf reaches 20,000 XP and becomes a 5th-level magic-user, the new hit die is rolled. (It is still an average of rolling a d8 and a d4.) For the sake of example, if somehow the Elf had lost XP in the Fighter class, reaching 10,000 XP in the Magic-User class (4th level) without first reaching 8,000 XP (4th level) as a Fighter, then
the Elf would not gain an additional hit die until reaching 8,000 XP as a Fighter. This situation is not likely to arise.
Thou I think half-orc will be treated like halflings & just have 1 class. When you think of half-orcs you think of brute strength, hard to kill, not bright, ie fighters
Also this open call for players will stay open till we get enough players to play. I'm thinking 4 or 5 will do it.

I'll get going on that character sheet after the game. Basically the character I'm imagining is a typical halforc street thug who is aspiring to be a thief, even though she usually ends up being the one who stands watch while the others clean out the loot. Good STR, reasonable WIS and CON, decent DEX, enough INT to keep her from chasing her own tail (even if she is gullible enough to believe the other guys when they told her she had a tail), and CHA to wreck a train.
But first....HOCKEY!

Looks good. Also you have a riding horse but it's down to it's last legs & such.
I noticed in the rules that they allow the halfling to either follow the fighter or thief class. I'm thinking about doing that with the half-orc as well. While they might not be a "iconic" thief it fits them.
Also this is for anyone. I'm also looking into adding the druid to the classes you can be as a religion called the Old Faith/druidism is pretty prominent in the starting village & factors into the adventure as well.
Just deciding whether I want to try & make it up myself or use a website I found that has it.

She bought him from a man named Barry Getman who is a reputed horse-thief. The horse's name is (or so she was told) Winnie.
And thanks for the multiclass consideration. I may get her a level of thief at 3rd. At this point, she's just an ambitious hooligan.

Months of hard work has paid off for spelling champion Kunal Sah. Sah is a seventh grade student from Green River High School. He competed and won at the school, district and is now the region champ.
Along with this championship he will advance to Washington D.C. to compete in the National Spelling Bee on May 31-June 1. The district spelling bee consisted of students from Emery, Carbon, Grand and San Juan counties and was sponsored by the Emery County Progress and Sun Advocate newspapers and the Southeast Educational Service Center.
Three Emery County students participated including the champion Kunal Sah from Green River, Jaecee Bird from Cleveland and Marilyn Malan from Ferron.
The spelling bee was held at Green River High School. Five spelling activities were held beginning with the build a word competition, boggle competition, geo-spelling, paideia words and spelling rules and the main event spell down.
The words were provided by Scripps and no pre-study of the words was allowed. The commentator would ask the student a word and the student would repeat the word back and then spell the word. If a contestant missed a word, they were eliminated from the competition, but when the contestants were narrowed down to two; then the contestant has a chance to spell a missed word correctly and then if they do so they will also need to spell a word of their own correctly to win the competition.
The words weren't easy and included: quadruped, journalism, academia, foreign, receipt, musician, condition, suspicion, physician, inertia, duodenum, ganglion, delicious, partial, endocrine, vacuum and many others.
Kira Simpson from San Juan and Kunal Sah were the last two spellers. Kira misspelled the work-calefactory and Kunal spelled it correctly. He was then given the word impeccable which he spelled correctly to win the competition and the trip to Washington, D.C.
"I feel really good about this competition. I practice two-three hours each day and my Dad tests me about once a week. The competition in Washington is May 31-June 1," said Sah.
Simpson said, "I don't like studying that much so I'm glad Kunal is going."
Eli Beck from San Juan finished third in the competition.
The prizes were awarded with each contestant placing in an event and receiving an award. Also competing were: Edwin Juan from Montezuma Creek, Destiny Brasher, Sally Mauro, Shylie Richardson, Helper Jr. High, Albert Jeffs, Sally Mauro and from Grand, Kamron Call, Brooklyn Richards and Delaney Roberts.
Kunal is the son of Kanhai (Ken) and Sarita Sah of Green River.

Super Cute
"These shoes are a little narrow, but they are still comfortable. The graffiti on the outside and the orange soles are the best part. They are so cute!"

The CARE (Campus Assessment, Response and Evaluation) Team is comprised of campus responders that include Public Safety, Counseling, and Health Services. They meet weekly to discuss behavioral incidents and concerns occurring on campus, discuss, plan, and implement intervention strategies, and provide consultation to the Vice President for Student & Economic Development regarding students who are at risk of harming themselves or others.
Members come to the team with experience in managing health, behavior and safety aspects of the Campus experience and may therefore spot trends and set up early intervention services as they evaluate behaviors from a variety of campus perspectives. The Team shall facilitate interventions; suggest referrals to appropriate offices, or request mental health assessments.
The team provides an early intervention resource for SUNY Broome's faculty, staff, and students to consult on student behaviors of: distressing, disruptive or threatening behaviors of concern.
To make a CARE Team referral, please contact Counseling Services in SS210 ext. 5210, or Public Safety at ext 5782, 5183. Referrals can be made via email, but it is best to have direct contact with a person if possible. If a situation requires immediate attention, please call 911 (9911 if using a campus telephone).
If you feel there is an immediate threat, call Public Safety at 607-778-5083. You will be asked for basic information about the student, how to contact you (in case the CARE Team has follow-up questions) and for a description of the incident or behaviors that prompted the referral.
You are the CARE Team's best resource because you may be familiar to the student. If you are comfortable doing so, tell the student that you are concerned and ask if he/she is ok. In many cases, students will indicate that he/she could use some help and you can refer them to the SUNY Broome's Counseling Services at 607-778-5210.
CARE team members evaluate the information and make a decision about whether the student should be assessed/interviewed. Reporting is the most critical step.
The CARE Team provides students with confidential, respectful, proactive support, while offering resources and balancing the educational needs of students with the mission of SUNY Broome Community College.
You do not have to make this determination. The most critical step is that you report the concerning behavior by calling one of the following CARE Team members:
If another campus resource is more appropriate, the CARE Team will refer the student and handle the transfer of information.

The lush green gardens of Lookout Point Lakeside Inn welcomed the wedding of Aaron & Shannon on May 8. Following the rains, the gardens are bursting forth with new growth. The calm and happy couple beamed throughout the ceremony. Shannon carried the vintage family Bible, given by her mother and carried at her own wedding years ago. A nice touch! Congratulations and best wishes,
