Formerly comatose Mexican immigrant released from hospital
Jesus Cornelio became a lightning rod in the health and immigration debates
Reporters: Steve Nuñez and Forrest Carr
PHOENIX (KGUN9-TV) - According to his wife Evelyn, Jesus Cornelio was not expected ever to wake up. But now he's walking and talking -- and he's doing it at home.
It may or may not be a medical miracle. But whatever it is, it was not supposed to happen. Earlier this month, "pulling the plug" -- taking Cornelio off of life support -- was, according to his wife, an option that doctors had presented. So was the idea of sending him to Mexico for treatment -- an option sometimes referred to in the medical industry as "medical deportation."
Neither will happen.
"I feel very lucky," Cornelio told 9 On Your Side reporter Steve Nuñez by telephone from his hospital room Friday afternoon. Cornelio said he feels very grateful to those who prayed for him. "Thank you. I never give up."
Cornelio's case became a lightning rod for debate in not one but two issues that have dominated state and national political discussion over the past year and a half: immigration reform and health care reform. Cornelio, according to his wife, has legal status but is not insured, nor is he eligible for state-funded health care. She said doctors at Banner Good Samaritan Hospital in Phoenix intially told her that after an aneurysm damaged her husband's brain, he would never wake up. A hospital spokeswoman confirmed to KGUN9 News that doctors gave Ms. Cornelio some difficult options to consider, but denied ever setting a hard and fast deadline.
But Ms. Cornelio refused to give up hope for recovery or to accept the hospital's options. "I just think that everybody deserves a second chance," she said Friday. "They deserve more time no matter what their legal status is. Everyone is human."
Cornelio began to recover slowly at first, but then with increasing speed. Ms. Cornelio calls it a miracle, although it's one she fully expected.
Hospital administrators refused to allow Nuñez to bring a camera into Cornelio's room on Friday. But Cornelio told him by phone that he is doing well. "The doctor said I can have a normal life. I can run like I used to, but I don't know."
Cornelio spent one more weekend in the hospital. But a Banner spokesperson confirmed to KGUN9 News that he was released at noon on Monday.
According Ms. Cornelio, her husband is doing so well that he was able to sit for an immigration interview on Thursday. As a result of the interview, she said, he finally received his green card. She told KGUN9 News earlier that Cornelio had first entered the country on a temporary tourist visa ten years ago, and never went back.
Now that Cornelio is home, he'll need follow up care and therapy. A nurse from Banner will assist with some of that.
But Cornelio and his wife face an uncertain financial future. Ms. Cornelio told Nuñez that she now owes $200,000 in medical bills, of which she has been able to pay about $5,000 so far, in large part because of community donations. Whether the balance will ever be paid -- and if so, who'll pay it -- is not clear.
Ms. Cornelio told KGUN9 News she's hopeful that going forward, she can get her husband on her employer's insurance now that he has his green card.

Walt Holmes rose through the ranks of the law department at Interstate Battery System of America Inc. to take on more than just legal work, and he does it all while following the Golden Rule: to treat others as they would want to be treated.
Holmes, Interstate's senior vice president and chief legal officer, and the legal department at the Dallas-based company feel they run their legal affairs a little bit differently from other large companies. Not only do they blend business and legal duties into their jobs, but they do it while following this companywide philosophy.
The company's mission statement is, "To glorify God as we supply our customers worldwide with top quality, value-priced batteries, related electrical power-source products, and distribution services. Further, our mission is to provide our partners and team members with opportunities which are profitable, rewarding and growth-oriented."
Interstate Batteries, a distributor of batteries and other means of providing power, acts as a middleman between manufacturers and resellers and consumers, says Holmes. The company has about 1,750 employees throughout the United States and Canada, with about 650 of those in the Dallas area.
Annual revenue is about $1.6 billion, though Holmes says that fluctuates based on the price of lead, a major ingredient in batteries.
As SVP and CLO, Holmes has his hands on more than one area of the company's business. He runs the PowerCare division, a group of about 100 employees who provide maintenance and repair service on products in that division. He also bears responsibility for Interstate's roughly 50 company-owned distributorships (40 in the U.S. and 10 in Canada). All that is in addition to the legal work he handles.
Holmes started with Interstate in 1995 as associate general counsel after working for outside law firms and graduating from Baylor Law School in 1990. Within about six months, the company's general counsel started overseeing its operations group and gave Interstate's legal matters to Holmes.
The company named Holmes general counsel in 1997. His job expanded again when he took over human resources in 2001.
Three years later he took over PowerCare and had a mouthful of a title: general counsel, vice president of human resources and PowerCare.
"I was managing the legal functions even at that time by myself and just said, 'I can't do all the things I need to do,' " Holmes says.

What is it about Sophie the Giraffe that's so irresistible to infants? For more than 50 years, bazillions of babies have been soothed and entertained by this simple, natural rubber teether. Perhaps it's because Sophie is soft to hold and easy to grasp? Or because its multiple chewing surfaces provide real teething relief? Or because when baby squeezes its tummy, it produces a happy squeak? Your baby may never tell you why he adores this classic teether toy, but there's no question...he will! See Product Details

Awesome teething toy!,
By Becka Bean
from Waterford, MI
About Me Parent of Two or More Children
Comments about Vulli Sophie the Giraffe Rubber Teether/Baby Toy:
I was skeptical of paying this price for a teething toy, but I had a few friends who raved about Sophie the giraffe, and my 9 month old was chewing on everything like crazy and so unhappy. It arrived in a really nice package, that would be really nice to also give as a gift. I wiped it off with a damp cloth like suggested and handed it over to my baby. She loved it! It seems really durable, it's easy to clean, and my daughter loves it because the shape of the little antlers on its head really seem to soothe her poor gums. She gnaws on it all the time. Totally worth the price.
My daughter LOVES this thing

About Me First Time Parent
My daughter is six months old and she puts EVERYTHING in her mouth. I love that she finds Sophie's feet and ears fun to "chew" on. She even smiles when Sophie squeaks. Definitely one of her favorite toys!
Sophie makes a great gift!
By JaciLee
from Moorhead, MN
A friend gave this to us as a gift for my second's first birthday. It is just too cute though I wish we had gotten one earlier. They make great gifts!
We love Sophie the Giraffe
By Mommy of two
from Tulsa, Ok
This is a great teether. My son was 6 months when we got it for him. It has really helped with his teething. It keeps him entertained for long periods of time.
Worth the money!

About Me Grandparent
Sophie is the best thing we've found for teething because of her soft but sturdy feel. I suggest one for home and one for the diaper bag.

My granddaughter was 3 mons old when I gave her this for Christmas....she loved it from day one and still does....she loves to chew on it ....it is easy for her to hold...and soft rubber so she won't hurt herself.
Best Natural Baby Toy!
By nmettille
from Pewaukee, WI
I absolutely adore this toy. I did not buy it for my first son because of the cost but I wanted it so bad. Instead I bought a bunch of cheap plastic toys and they sufficed. But with my second son I decided to buy it. I shopped around a little bit and found a decent price. Even though I could have bought three or four cheap toys for the price of this one, the cheap toys were not as good of an experience for my little one. The back of the box describes the benefits of Sophie so I won't go into that but everything about this toy is perfectly crafted for a baby. I was slightly afraid that this was going to be one of those toys that I loved, but my baby would have no interest in. But that is not the case at all. My baby adores this toy as much as I do. I think all children should have toys that are made out of natural materials and trading four adequate toys for one great toy is so worth it. I would also like to add that one review asked who liked it more moms or babies. The truth is this is a very sensational and trendy toy to parents right now. But, I am also a child care professional and Sophie is a very educational and stimulating toy. Parents SHOULD love Sophie. This is no Tickle Me Elmo. Sophie is definitely worth the hype.
5 month old LOVES it!

Ok but it needs to be fixed a little
By lalita78
from orlando,fl
They toy is ok, but when my 6 months old daughter wants to chew the ears, she cries because she can't do it with those small ears. The end of the legs are too big and wide for her mouth to chew and she can't, so she gets desperate of the situation. If the product is fixed or made for this kind of infants wil be great. I know that they have two versions of the giraffe. I would love to see a third one with this description. large ears and thin legs
In Love with Sophie
By Nana
from Indiana
My grandson got his 1st Sophie for Easter. He starting teething early and Sophie was perfect for his little hands to hold on to. Unfortunately, his 1st Sophie was lost, so he got his Sophie #2. He loved his Sophie. Then somehow she got lost too!!! Soo, Nana got him Sophie #3 in his stocking and he was thrilled on Christmas!!! Hopefully, we will be able to hang on to this one. They are not cheap, but by far his most favorite toy. He's never had a pacifier; maybe that is why he loves Sophie so much!
Worth $
By 2 kids nuf 4 me
from Charlotte, nc
After seeing this giraffe everywhere, I decided to give it a try despite the expensive price for a rubber chew toy. My 6month old loves it. After a few days, he got the hang of it. Worth the $!
Number 1 toy
By Gram
from Toccoa, GA
This was the favorite toy from 6 to 12 months...great for teething and she so loved it...took it home and it was always with her! Never imagined it being such a hit...worth every penny and then some!

expensive dog toy marketed to babies
By mom of 2 under 3
from cincinnati, OH
I have a 4 month old daughter who has shown very little interest in this giraffe. Maybe as time goes on she will like it, but for now was a waste of money. I'm not sure why this is so expensive, looks every bit like a $4 dog toy. It does squeak easily, so maybe in the future when she can manipulate it better she will have an interest.
best toy ever
By Britty
from Minneapolis, MN
My daughter loves this toy and she has since she was a newborn! It's great for teaching them motor skills, learning how to grab stuff, cause and effect with the squeaker in it, etc. Overall a wonderful toy! she got 2 at my babyshower
Not sure who likes it more: moms/ babies
By BosRunGal
from Boston, MA
I can't say I would have bought this for myself, given the price, but we received two as gifts. My daughter is gradually becoming more adept at handling objects and likes to chew on the head and legs. I was going to return the second one, but after seeing my dog eye it and how much the baby enjoys it, decided keeping a backup wasn't a bad idea!

I'd actually say notch isn't donating enough. He must have a LOT of profit from Minecraft sales, even after sharing with the other developers!
- December 26, 2011 at 7:17 PM

This is a good thing i mean even if he was trolling im happy to see the money that will be going to CHARITY

You know, trolling with charity just make me laugh, well played Notch, well played. XD

Joke's on him. I didn't even pay for my Minecraft account. My friend gave me his! ok...that's not good revenge...
- December 26, 2011 at 7:23 PM
- Jebediah Oldenheimer said...
As before, I will never doubt that Notch is an asshole who got fame by doing one good thing. ONE.
But oh well, that's 8500 bucks for charity, the people who matter still win!
*deep breath*
That's enough for me. - December 26, 2011 at 7:25 PM
- Askaniz said...
Why couldn't Notch assume that he's a brony once and for all so BronyHouble could finally win this?
- December 26, 2011 at 7:27 PM
- CityFlyer502 said...
@Adrian Brony Gah! You beat me to it on the time. As you said, 20 hours left, so there's still time to take action. I know, ultimately this is about supporting a great cause. No matter who comes out on top, we should be glad we gave. BUT WE STILL GOTTA TRY TO COME OUT ON TOP!!
- December 26, 2011 at 7:30 PM
- KouThan said...
Ok with some fast math if 300 people donate 5$ bronies can still beat Notch. But wait to update the amount on the last minute this time.
- December 26, 2011 at 7:30 PM
- Octavia said...
Dayum. lol That must have been a quick and strong last minute surge. There's still some time left too though.
- December 26, 2011 at 7:30 PM
- DeRockProject said...
You guys seriously can't be mad at him for donating a shit ton amount to charity?! Hey! It just means we gotta donate MORE!!!
- December 26, 2011 at 7:31 PM
- Cesar said...
Ok, we need 150 bronies (including myself) to but the indie pack for $20. It gets us up to $10,000 last minute, and hey, $20 for a dozen games. that's an amazing deal right there. DO IT! I DON'T WANT NOTCH TO WIN!
- December 26, 2011 at 7:31 PM
- SassyJazzRazzMaTazz said...
Second place isn't bad but there is still 20 hours left. I wonder if the we close the gap before it all ends.
- December 26, 2011 at 7:32 PM

Currently the humblebrony reads at round $8,200, WE CAN TOTALLY MAKE IT GOOOOOO! I even donated!

How DARE Notch donate to charity.
This was all about winning a competition, not about actually helping with a charitable cause.
Right guys? - December 26, 2011 at 7:34 PM
- naahdude said...
@Jebediah Oldenheimer
And what? The developers/humble bundle don't deserve some money too? - December 26, 2011 at 7:35 PM
- Bronyhub said...
How long do we have to still donate? What timezone is the humble brony bundle and indie bundle running on?
- December 26, 2011 at 7:36 PM
- Jebediah Oldenheimer said...
Oh of course they do.
But I'd rather give my money to a child who hasn't the money to even play games than a developer who makes bank off of his/her/their creation already, in addition to other sources of income. - December 26, 2011 at 7:37 PM
- Altercation said...
Dudes, we can just donate. There's twenty hours left, and if we can just run up a bit more cash, then we'll beat out Notch.
Come on, dudes. This is like... a contest. A contest that no matter which side loses, everyone totally wins. Get those competitive bones in your body up and ready or something. - December 26, 2011 at 7:39 PM
- Tyger said...
@Miss Rarity EXACTLY!!
(Think of it this way, if we get the bronies all riled up they'll donate more. More money for charity and the developers in the long run.) - December 26, 2011 at 7:40 PM
- CloverSmile said...
@Bronyhub http://www.humblebundle.com/
The website itself has a countdown timer, 20 hours 38 minutes as of typing, does not matter what timezone. - December 26, 2011 at 7:40 PM
- Stars said...
sucks to be sniped all of a sudden, but it's good to see so much being donated like this
- December 26, 2011 at 7:40 PM
- Altercation said...
@Miss Rarity
Of course it's about donating to charity/HIB/indie developers.
But you're missing the point.
If Notch turns it into a competitive thing, if we reciprocate, the only thing that will happen is that more donations will flood in (possibly on both sides) in an effort to one-up each other.
Thus the
Making charities into competitions is one of the best ways to actually get people to donate. It turns it into a game, and there's literally no downside to this.
I'm actually pretty good with Notch donating this. After all, another 8000 into the HIB is awesome. But any effort to outdo him will just result in more money flowing into it. - December 26, 2011 at 7:43 PM
- gclaw4444 said...
i'm confused, what is this whole 20 hors left thing, why is their some sort of time limit? Cant we just overtake him anytime?
- December 26, 2011 at 7:44 PM
- Gummy said...
Well then we'll just have to give MORE MONEY AWAY! Muhahahahah yes, if notch wants a race he'll get a bucking a race!

On the page, under the "Can we make your contribution blah blah blah", should I put "@HumbleBrony Bundle"?

Such a good game, such a terrible person........... Darn you to hay, Notch.
- December 26, 2011 at 7:49 PM

On a different note, Notch trying to beat us is awesome. That's a lot of money donated right there. - December 26, 2011 at 7:49 PM
- Dash_Off said...
@I Put On My Thinking Cap That's truw, but Humble Brony only donates 60% to charity.
- December 26, 2011 at 7:52 PM
- Altercation said...
No, you can donate through Paypal at the Humble Brony Bundle website. It's the big "Donate" button on the top right of the page. It'll just count as your own personal donation if you do it through HIB itself. Which is cool, but if you wanna contribute to HBB, then do it through there. - December 26, 2011 at 7:53 PM
- louster200 said...
Well crap! I want this through the HBB. Made it personal, though. Poop. - December 26, 2011 at 7:54 PM

who wants to bet that notch is watching this page going "Dance puppets dance"?
more importantly, who cares? let's win this competition! Everyone wins if we win! - December 26, 2011 at 7:57 PM
- gclaw4444 said...
ok, just found out why their is a time limit, everybody go to http://humblebronybundle.blogspot.com/ and donate.
Also, where is Cupcakes, we need him updating the donation amount minute by minute - December 26, 2011 at 7:58 PM
- AutumnShy said...
Meh, It IS all still going to charity, So this is a good thing.
Let's take just a moment to congratulate ourselves here my fellow Colts, Mares, and fillies alike. Notch may have very well beaten us in the donation amount. But I say when thousands of individual come together and donate what they can, however much they can. That's what this is all about, So some big shot came and one-upped us... We are legion my dear bronies, it's what's in the heart that counts. Not everypony can donate 8k to a charity, but our numbers and kindness will ALWAYS win no matter the case. Seeing how many of you all donated is what makes me proud to be a part of this community, Not how much money we raised. Don't ever let competition cloud our creed, You all are what keeps this fandom alive.
Remember, just because it seems like life is some sort of mission or test, never forget the power of love and kindness my friends.

- mattwhite924 said...
I hoped he would have done this earlier so that we could have gotten a good back and forth competition going. This is still a good thing though, Notch usually doesn't give this much, so us giving got him to give more as well. Win-win for everybody.
- December 26, 2011 at 8:00 PM
- Altercation said...
Already another 850? Awesome. Especially since this has been up for only like... half an hour. Double the current amount donated, and we'll exceed Notch's current contribution.
- December 26, 2011 at 8:01 PM
- maskedmustelid said...
I would say we forced Notch's hand.
And hell, first, second, whatever place we end up - we can still claim credit to his sizeable donation due to *our* combined efforts from raising the bar so high to begin with.
Not that we're content with letting Notch think he's gotten away with it, nosir! - December 26, 2011 at 8:07 PM
- Narwhals1 said...
Dear Princess Celestia,
Today I learned a great lesson about not letting competition blocking out the big picture of the cause. At a time where everypony is donating to charities and bettering the world, and coming together for a common cause, it's wrong to consider out standings as a contest.
We may have lost our top place in largest donation, but when you have bronies and friends alike who all realize how much better some people's lives are going to be because of us coming together and making a difference, then in a way, we've beaten anypony else.
Yours truly,

to anyone that thinks we shouldnt compete with notch, i say this is what compitition is for. People might think compitition is degrading or immature, but this is a compitition of charity (and braging rights). This is the kind of compitition that could only result in a good thing and just because it's a win-win situation doesnt mean we shouldn't try.

Things are going so fast now! I need to send another payment to the Humble Indie Bundle right now; we're less than $500 away from catching up!
You guys are doing an awesome job! :D
And to clarify: The $9203 is across BOTH Bundles, not this one. As in, we've raised $9203 in the last 5 weeks, but we're still needing more funds to hit the top contributor spot on this Bundle, and thus top contribution of all time. So, keep it up guys!! - December 26, 2011 at 8:53 PM

@Stromblad: Not really. That's what was donated for all bundles sofar together. To get top spot on this one we have still a bit to go.
I'm wondering if the donation amount of @notch has a specific meaning. Seems like an odd number.

Sooooo... still our victory! XD

At this point, it comes down to one thing, I think; is it more important that we get the top spot, or that we help raise the most possible money for this charitable cause?
I'm guessing that, at this early hour and with over half a day left on the clock to donate, that Cupcakes Nom is in bed like most normal people. (Not that I'm implying that he, or any of us, is normal. Just that this is when normal people are asleep. =P ) So, a donation update probably won't be happening for another handful of hours. If we want the top spot, we'll hold onto what we have, and keep that amount secret up until as late as we can safely wait before sending in an update, making it harder for notch or anyone else to know what the total to beat is.
On the other hand, if we want to promote the spirit of giving and give things a chance to escalate during the final hours, we should update our total early and often. I've already given what I can afford, as I imagine many others also have, so I don't know if we could keep things going. But then again, if the last few hours are any indication...
Either way, I'm proud to be part of a fanbase that is willing to come together like this, especially when so many of us are likely burned out from the stress of the season, and also quite likely with very little money available to give due to buying gifts for family and friends. That even with those kind of hurdles to overcome, that we still have managed to gather together so many donations... Again, I'm damn proud to be able to consider myself a Brony. - December 27, 2011 at 1:42 AM

Consider another $10 added. Together we can beat notch, and show an entire industry how strong bronys can be!

C'mon everyone, we've got to beat Notch!
...Err, I mean, we've got to win charity!

what if someone *casually* drop the humble brony bundle link to Faust twitter, daniel ingram facebook and other voice actors facebook?
i can't even set up a postepay in 12 hours left è-è - December 27, 2011 at 4:23 AM

So ponies, dare we try for the 10k mark? I think we can make it and showing that were such fine giving ponies would be a blast. ^^
Plus lets face it, 10k makes for a happy round number, and who doesn't love happy round numbers. - December 27, 2011 at 6:46 AM
- Lazuli said...
He's going to watch a "few" episodes of MLP? Yeah, we all know how that's going to end!
Anyway, I still think he could have given a lot more. It feels like he's trying to encourage others to donate more. Or perhaps he just needed an excuse to start watching ponies... I won't feel bad if he suddenly drops a lot more money into it, it is a charity after all, not a competition. - December 27, 2011 at 6:55 AM

Good guy Notch, donates a lot of money, inadvertently prompts bronies to donate MORE money

soo, i know it's old but...
this means notch will have to watch a few episodes of MLP :D he said so xD - December 27, 2011 at 8:43 AM

In the spirit of Luna, as noted by @Cupcakes Nom:
You guys. I freaking love you guys. NOT EVEN 24 HOURS after the call is made, and we more than double ourselves up. If the fandom can find a way to wrangle up about another $3,000, we can more than double Notch himself. - December 27, 2011 at 11:15 AM

I think notch is a good example of the "chaotic good" troll. In this case, he trolls to bring about a good result.

OMG, i love this fan base so much. all you bronys are the greatest group of people I have had the pleasure to be acquainted with.
No matter what happens to this community, the good and the bad, I will always be proud to have known all of you.
I am amazed by your generosity and love, and i will be forever inspired to do my best to show the same. - December 27, 2011 at 11:48 AM

wait if notch was a brony would that mean we still win?
- December 27, 2011 at 11:55 AM

I know its been said before, but I'll say it again..
and it has. really guys, you are THE BEST. - December 27, 2011 at 11:57 AM

@DeusXMachina I couldn't agree more to both those comments.
Also this whole thing would very well make for a very good holiday news story. LOL - December 27, 2011 at 12:22 PM

Man, Notch one-ups us and we respond by DOUBLING the last donation. In less than 17 hours!

Notch: 8,542.00 Dollars
Humble Brony Bundle: 14,238.27
Fuck yea. - December 27, 2011 at 12:48 PM
- TechnoTrot said...
Best of all, it sounds like one final chunk is going to go all at once before the bundle is over, so the final number may be incredibly eye-popping.
- December 27, 2011 at 1:00 PM
- Sothalic said...
Wow, this all happened while I was asleep, this... is incredible. Double the initial donation, so awesome.
I do have to ponder though whenever it was a damn lot of bronies, or one major donation that brought the amount to such an excessive amount. Either way, that's amazing. - December 27, 2011 at 1:09 PM
- ryan7251 said...
I hate the fact LOL made equestria daily take down that article on best wiki of 2011 poll im sure some bronys did not even get to see it....o well looks like we have one win:)
- December 27, 2011 at 1:14 PM
- Gravenstein said...
I knew we'd beat Notch's donation, but I had no idea another $7000 would show up overnight. I freakin love you guys.
- December 27, 2011 at 1:52 PM

Notch is such a badass, I wouldn't be surprised if he decided to pitch in anonymously into the brony bundle as well. Considering he said he's also a fan.

OHIO VALLEY — This month the C8 Medical Panel is expected to announce the protocols for the first phase of medical monitoring available to people in the Mid-Ohio Valley who have been drinking water contaminated with an industrial surfactant. A town hall-style public meeting will be held in Chester on March 26.
C8, also known as perfluorooctanoic acid or PFOA, became the subject of a class action lawsuit against DuPont by thousands of people whose water became contaminated with the manmade substance as the result of manufacturing processes at DuPont Washington Works near Parkersburg, West Virginia. As a condition of a groundbreaking settlement agreement, a panel of independent epidemiologists known as the C8 Science Panel was selected to determine whether or not the impacted population was at greater risk for disease because of the exposure. Findings from the C8 Science Panel determined that there was a probable link between C8 exposure and pregnancy-induced hypertension, high cholesterol, thyroid disease, ulcerative colitis and kidney and testicular cancer. Consequently, people in the Mid-Ohio Valley who have been drinking C8-contaminated water may be eligible for free medical monitoring or personal injury claims.
The C8 Medical Panel, which includes Dean Baker, MD, M.P.H., Melissa McDiarmid, MD, M.P.H., D.A.B.T., and Harold Sox, MD, M.A.C.P, exists to determine what medical screening is appropriate for people who have been drinking water contaminated with C8 in light of findings by the C8 Science Panel.
According to a January court filing, the medical panel intends to announce protocols for initial screening of class members this month with the protocols for ongoing monitoring scheduled to be released in the fall.
Marietta attorney Ethan Vessels is encouraging people who have lived within the impacted communities to understand the process and participate in the screening that is yet to come.
"Everyone who is eligible should definitely participate in medical monitoring," Vessels said.
Vessels is hosting a series of informational town hall meetings for members of the impacted communities who want to understand all the issues facing them and who may have questions about illness or medical monitoring.
Water districts found to be contaminated with C8 include Belpre, Tuppers Plains, Little Hocking and Pomeroy, Ohio and Lubeck and Mason County, West Virginia. The criteria for participation in medical monitoring or filing a personal injury claim is not based on an individual's current place of residence.
Callie Lyons, investigative journalist and author of Stain-Resistant, Nonstick, Waterproof and Lethal: The Hidden Dangers of C8, will be present at the meetings to provide information and answer questions. Lyons has been following the controversy for the past 11 years.
This month, Vessels and Lyons will meet with community members in Little Hocking and Chester.
At 6 p.m. on Tuesday, March 19, there will be a town hall meeting at the gymnasium of Little Hocking Elementary School. At 6 p.m. on Tuesday, March 26, a second town hall meeting will be held at the old Chester Courthouse. The meetings are free and open to the public.

Candlelight Vigil to Remember Victims
By: Stephen Bond
Updated: March 14, 2013
After the news breaks...After the tears fall, after the shock sets in..the grieving begins. Tonight members of the valley community began the remembrance of 4 of their own.
Ed Backus of Mohawk says, "It set in, it set in real quick, and again the reflection is how bad of thing, how bad of a situation it really is."
Over 200 endured the freezing temperatures to reflect and come together as a valley community. And many say they believe the community will be stronger because of these events.
Melinda McMann of Mohawk says, "It's a small community, everybody knows everyone. I don't know anyone doesn't know John the barber, you know I'm sure there isn't a kid in Mohawk that hasn't had their haircut by him. You know and just to show support for him and the other survivors and the families of the deceased."
Kyrstina O'Dell of Mohawk says, "It was...I couldn't believe it, didn't think anything like this could happen to little Mohawk and Herkimer."
Alyssa Pilipovic says, "It shows how much the community actually cares about what happened and wants to see everybody safe and wants to come together and prove to everybody that we're all here for each other."

By the HELP Committee and Havre Public Schools for Havre Daily News
The holidays are upon us, a time of family reunions, parties, shopping and joy. For some, though, the holidays create a set of conditions that may culminate in physical, emotional or financial abuse.
It is important to remember that holidays don't cause family violence. Stress doesn't cause family violence. These factors only increase the likelihood of family abuse or violence in families already at risk or where violence has already occurred.
Exactly what is family abuse or violence? According to the Pennsylvania Alliance for Children and Families, a person may be a victim of family violence if they are subject to any of the following:
Physical abuse: inflicting or threatening to inflict physical pain or injury or depriving someone of a basic need.
Emotional abuse: name-calling, intimidation, threats or other actions or words that cause fear, anguish or distress.
Sexual abuse: rape, unwanted touching, forcing sexual acts, refusing to practice safe sex;
Financial exploitation: stealing, misusing or concealing money or other funds, forcing a change in beneficiary in a will or insurance policy.
Neglect: refusal or failure by those responsible to provide food, shelter, health care or protection for a vulnerable elder or child;
Abandonment: the desertion of a vulnerable person by anyone who has assumed the responsibility for care or custody of that person.
Property abuse: stealing or destroying personal belongings, hurting pets, withholding basic needs such as food and clothing.
As a community, what can we do to help those caught in this terrible situation? The following five R's can make a difference if we all practice them.
Reach out. Be there to listen. Let them know that they have a right to a safe and healthy family. Let them know there are places to go for help and get them connected. The HRDC Crisis Line phone number is 265-6262 and is available 24 hours a day.
Raise the issue. Educate yourself and others so we can help prevent family violence.
Remember the risk factors like family stress and substance abuse.
Recognize the warning signs that a child, family member or neighbor may be in trouble. For more information on warning signs, go online to www.alliancepa.org/familyviolence.html.
Report suspected abuse and neglect.
Each of us can be a force in changing and ending the cycle of abuse and violence. Get to know your neighbor, become personally involved with them and include them in your family activities. Be a role model; show by example that there is a better way to communicate than through violence. Hold violent adults accountable for their behavior and actions and their impact on others.
As surely as this holiday season is a time of hope and renewal and reaching out to those less fortunate than ourselves, it can become a time of hope and rewewal for families caught in the terrible cycle of abuse and violence, especially if, as a community or individual, we reach out to help.
For more information on recognizing and preventing domestic violence, contact Lin Nelson at the HELP Committee and Boys & Girls Club of the Hi-Line at 265-6206.

News Update
Rowlett City Council awards contract to develop upper pressure water plane
By Kenny Green,
Published: Thursday, February 7, 2013 6:36 PM CST
One of the biggest issues the city of Rowlett has struggled with is the lack of water pressure to certain areas of the city. The city hired a consultant to address the issue and it was determined that due to the city's topography, a dual pressure plane system was the only solution.
"In 2010, engineering brought forth a plan to remedy low pressures in portions of the city. After that plan was presented and improved we went back and constructed a temporary upper pressure plane to get the worst areas in better conditions," said Tom Harris, city engineer.
The city completed the interim upper pressure plane in 2012.
The city council approved a contract to begin the creation of a permanent solution in December with the awarding of the design contract for a new elevated storage tank.
Part of the changes will look at the downtown redevelopment area to determine what improvements might need to be made. The consultants have been tweaking the original plan since 2010. As part of the changes to the plan, the new design will utilize existing infrastructure. Some of the previous planning for the upper pressure plane had some of the city's assets going away.
Another change to the plan reduced the size of the secondary plane from the original design. The changes to the plan will reduce the cost of creating the upper pressure plane by $3 million.
Councilman Chris Kilgore asked what the cost would be to increase the pressure to 50 - 60 PSI. The city's consultant indicated it would be significantly more expensive but could not provide a dollar amount.
"We are balancing the pressure on existing infrastructure that is taxed at 45 PSI. I think that is one of the reasons you are seeing the size of the second pressure plane shrink. This meets the TCEQ standard by above 10 percent," said Lynda Humble, city manager.
On Tuesday, Feb. 5, the council approved a contract to allow Freese and Nichols Inc. to continue with the next phase of the project. The next phase is to design and engineer improvements for the upper pressure plane, make improvements to the existing Rowlett Road Pump Station and design a 24-inch water transmission line to be used as part of the lower pressure plane.

Grand Jury Indicts Two Tyler Men
By DAYNA WORCHEL
Staff Writer
Staff Writer
Two Tyler men who authorities say conspired to burn down a Tyler substance abuse recovery center -- so it would not be in competition with another in the city -- have been indicted in the United States District Court, Eastern District of Texas.
The charges in the indictment include murder for hire after one of the men attempted to hire someone to kill his co-conspirator so the co-conspirator would not testify against him, Assistant U.S. Attorney Jim Noble said.
A federal grand jury indicted Daniel Joseph Kubisty, 55, in May, on a charge of malicious attempt, by means of fire, to destroy or damage a building, according to court documents. But on June 6, a grand jury added Edward Jacobs, 44, to the indictment, charging him with solicitation of arson, witness tampering, murder for hire, solicitation for murder and possession of a firearm in furtherance of violent crime, Noble said.
Kubisty and Jacobs have been charged in the June 6 indictment with conspiracy to commit arson and attempted arson, Noble said.
The indictment alleges that between March 10 and March 19, Jacobs and Kubisty conspired with one another to burn the Add-Recovery Center in Tyler in order to gain a competitive advantage for the Methadone Clinic of East Texas, which also is in Tyler, Noble said.
Between May 21 and June 1, Jacobs approached another person about murdering Kubisty to prevent his testimony in the federal prosecution against Jacobs, according to court documents. Jacobs also provided the individual with ammunition and firearms to commit the murder, the court documents state.
If convicted, Kubisty could be sentenced to up to 10 years in federal prison, Noble said. Jacobs is facing up to 30 years in prison, and both may have to pay a fine of up to $250,000.
The bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives is investigating the case, and Noble is prosecuting it.

As regional fears of a spillover from Syria's civil war increase, Israel plans to build a fence along the border with the embattled country.
The announcement came Sunday during Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's weekly Cabinet address, in which he cited the construction of a 230-kilometer (143-mile) fence along Israel's southern border with Egypt.
"We intend to erect an identical fence, with a few changes based on the actual territory, along the Golan Heights. We know that on (the) other side of our border with Syria today, the Syrian army has moved away, and in its place, global jihad forces have moved in," Netanyahu said, according to a transcript of his remarks.
"Therefore, we will defend this border against both infiltration and terrorism, just as we are successfully doing on the Sinai border."
Syrian opposition and government sources have reported that the extremist al-Nusra Front, which the United States has designated as a terrorist group with links to al Qaeda in Iraq, has taken part in some of the fighting in Syria.
Netanyahu also said the Syrian government is "very unstable" and expressed concerns about the possible use of chemical weapons.
Israel seized the Golan Heights, along with the West Bank, Gaza and the Sinai Peninsula, during the 1967 war. The Sinai has since been returned to Egypt.
Israel annexed the Golan Heights in 1981, a move not recognized by the international community and condemned by Syria, which still claims the land.
Chaos from Syria's civil war has already spilled into Turkey and Jordan.
Last month, shells and bullets landed in Jordanian territory because of fighting between government and rebel forces in western Syria. One Jordanian soldier was wounded, Jordan's armed forces said.

The UChicago Advantage: Focus on Early Detection
The positive impact of early detection on cancer mortality is one victory in the war on cancer, yet there is enormous room for improvement. Oftentimes, screening results leave doctors and patients uncertain about what to do next. For some cancers, such as ovarian, lung, and pancreatic, there is no effective screening —the disease is typically found in an advanced stage, when chances of a cure are remote.

As a man, is this something going vegan that I need to worry about?
Hey Madcat,Not sure what you're referring to. Testosterone is rarely affected by diet. Any fluctuations are usually caused by hormonal syndromes or conditions such as hypogonadism, steroid use, or endocrine disorders. Veganism would not affect your testosterone levels, that I know of. Has someone told you otherwise?
Molly Horn
I found this discussion on line about it but thought I would ask the experts.
Oh, perhaps Susan will give an opinion. In all of my reading, I've never seen it mentioned. Internet discussion forums (even this one!) can be rife with misinformation, rumor and ill-informed people passing themselves off as experts, when they are nothing of the sort. I've read a lot of books, but I'm no expert.
Hopefully someone with some letters after their name can lay your worries to rest.
You could always ask your doctor about it, also.
I appreciate your input. I think there are a lot of people with good info even without letters behind their names and you fit that bill.
Aw, that's really nice of you to say. Thank you – that made my day. I often feel like a "fake" because I have a lot of knowledge, but none of those letters to back up what I'm saying. Thank you for such a nice compliment.
Why are you guys arguing like this. We're all on the same side aren't we ??
Never make assumptions. You'll end up being an A**, and the UMP will TION you. -- Coach Smiley -- Fresh Prince of Bel Air
Theodore,You simply must stop posting your anarchistic thoughts to this forum! You're tipping the boat.
Sorry, Molly. I posted without actually reading the messages in the thread.
I've seen so many arguments on internet forums that sometimes, if I want to stay in touch with a particular forum but I haven't got time to read the messages, I just post my standard "peacemaker" message and hope that it fits in. Ninety nine per cent of the time it does, but I guess I got caught out this time.
Apologies once again, and keep up the good vibes.
Oh wow, *lol*
I was totally kidding! I thought you were, too! See, your smart sense of humor got you into?
No harm, no foul, I think, in this case.
No, I haven't joined, but not for being unwilling. I haven't read McDougall's books, so I'd feel weird joining the forum. I know several people on here are members there, though. I think that Lani Muelrath is one of their Admin/Moderator-types, as well.
I agree with you on the "we're all on the same side, why can't we all just get along?" viewpoint? Infighting and nitpicking does nothing to advance the vegan message/cause, and serves only to destroy us in the end.
You're a fine gentleman, Theodore. Thank you for the compliments. This thread, supposedly full of testosterone, has turned out to be quite the ego-boost for me! I struggle a lot with self-esteem issues (though I'm in counseling currently), so I really appreciate your and Madcat's kindness. It is not falling on deaf ears.
I'm a member at McDougal though I don't post often. Wild4Stars there also.
I've always felt that life is a bit too short for controversy. We're all here because we want to achieve great health on a sustainable diet. Why should there be controversy?
That said, there are some people that just can't seem to "get it" without an argument of some sort. And some of those arguments tend to amuse me, so I say, let them at it !! I may even participate if it continues to be amusing!!
Must say I totally enjoy 99% of the people on the PCRM 21-Day Kickstart Forums. I have found most of the threads to be fun and informative.

Hey Molly (and everyone else)
Have you seen this video:
It's a seriously great video about Dr McDougall, and it starts off with the founder of VegSource talking about how his wife was saved from autoimmune disease by reading Dr McDougall's book.
Check it out.

I'm one of those people, to some extent. If someone says something "authoritatively", I'll question it (I try to start out politely, assuming that I'm misunderstanding something). Sometimes it clears right up. Other times, they're stating as fact something that might be fine for them but (a) has little or no solid basis of data and/or (b) might not work for other people. For example, the whole "soy is perfect"/"soy is of the devil" debate. For some, soy IS wonderful. For others, soy IS a health hazard. And there are lots of caveats in between - are we talking fermented soy like tempeh or are we talking edamame or are we talking soy protein isolates? KWIM? So, I'll argue the issue (as politely as possible) until we've dotted i's and crossed t's to make some sense of the whole discussion (whatever it may be) and draw out as rounded a picture as we can of the subject.
And sometimes I need to "argue" a point as a "Devil's advocate" to clear up the subject in my own head by drawing out those who can more clearly state the point.--Deb R
I love a good debate. Sometimes hearing both sides of an argument is the best way to make my own decision on a subject. What is irritating on some of these forums is people who want to put others down for their thoughts or ideas. I don't have patience with people like that. I was on a forum about Osteoporosis and there was one person that was calling another a liar, calling her names, telling her to shut up and get off the boards - all over which style of weight vest was best. It was pretty unbelievable. The moderators eventually shut the thread down and I haven't seen that person on any other threads, I think they may have taken her off. It was vile for a couple days. Even though the other person never responded to the rant, the ranter just kept on and on! Personally I think she needed to be on a mental health forum!
Here at PCRM, everyone seems to be on the same page with similar goals and issues. I have learned A LOT from people on these kick start forums.
You crack me totally up.
Thanks guys for the good laughs and some sort of answer. I guess that's it.
You're welcome Madcat.
I'm just sorry that I wasn't able to offer any, shall we say, scientific advice.
Thanks for the video link, too! I really enjoyed it and it opened my eyes quite a bit.
Not sure how I can apply it to my own diet, as I am being watched for insulin resistance, which means I have to limit starch. But I will try!
