NO. 2 BETHPAGE, N Y., WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 17, 1941 PRICE: 5 CENTS BULLETIN Additional volunteers to serve in all branches of civilian defense work are needed immediately. Women volunteers are urged to register as soon as possible with Mrs. Frederick Kramer administrative head of all volunteers in this community. All regis-trations for any branch may be made at the newly established headquarters of the Bethpage Civilian Defense Council in the fire-house on Stewart avenue, where the council will maintain a 24- hour-a-day service. APPEALS FOR VOLUNTEER SPOTTERS Charles Schwarz, commander of the Archie McCord post American Legion, has made an urgent appeal to all the citizens of Bethpage for volunteers to aid in manning the observation post. The post is being manned by all available members of the legion post but volunteers are needed to augment the stafiF of men now on duty. LEGION TO AID DEFENSE UNITS All American Legion posts of Nassau County were called upon last week by the County Commander S|;ierman Moreland, Jr., to make preparations for a special mobilization to assist the local defense councils. He said that upwards of 4,000 members that are not already engaged in defense work can be mobilized. He also urged all indi-vidual posts to co-operate with the defense council in every way, esptjcially air raid warden services. WARDENS RECEIVE TRAINING Special training of air raid wardens was started on Monday night at 8:15 o'clock in nine instruction centers located in Hicks-ville, Garden City, Freeport, Woodmere, Rockville Centre, Glen Cove, North Bellmore, Hempstead, and Port Washington accord-ing to an announcement by the county defense council. All war-dens are required to attend classes which will continue through-out the week. Fire Department Dedicates Placque To Francis Fox Fi-ancis. Fox, Boy Scout hero who sacrificed his life last Feb-ruary while attempting to save his pal, Edwin Okula from •drowning in a rain filled culvert on Powell's road was awarded a bronze placque by the Bethpage Fire Department in ceremonies held at the school last Friday. The placque which was placed on the wall of the school audi-torium was-unveiled by the Rev-erend Michael J. Hartigan, pas-tor of the 3t. Martin of Tours Roman Catholic church. Father Hartigan also gave a brief speech in which he lauded Francis Fox for his deed. Victor h. Miller, principal of the school, also gave a short address. A group of the firemen represented the Bethpage Firemen at the ceremonies. Fox was awarded a bronze med-al for heroism posthumously by the Carnegie Fund Commission last month. Wonder Homes Tops As An Ideal Christmas Gift Ask Cooperation In Paper Drive All those who hnve ben saving old newspapers and other wastepaper to aid the American Legion in their wastepaper drive are urged to cooperate with the Legion by either writing or phon-ing the Central Fuel Company here In , Bethpage, telling them where the paper is and when it can be picked up, or, if it is possible, by bringing the wastepaper to the office of, the Central Fuel Company. The members of our T • jj;irii; post inc busily engaged tliesci days in helpiiig to safeguard oui country, so if you can cooperate with them in this v it will niake their tasks that much easier. In an urgent appeal issued today James "Hap-py" Norman, chief observer in charge of observa-tion posts stated that 150 volunteers are needed immediately to serve at the observation posts. This work is to be carried on 24 hours a day for the duration of the war, and is one of the most import-ant parts of the national defense program. Ac-cording to a statement by Sher- G.O.P. To Install Newly Elected Officers January 12 Installation ceremonies for the newly elected officers of the The-odore Roosevelt Club have been ^et for Monday, January 12. Those officers who will be in-stalled are Joseph Lorentz, new-ly elected president of the club; Miss Carrie Payne, first vice-president; Buddy Mazzara, sec-ond vice-president; Walter Har-tigan, treasurer; Miss Marie Nor-man, recording secretary; Robert Gillespie, financial secetary; Miss Helen Namn, corresponding sec-retary; Henry Spindler, sergeant-at- arms, and Mrs. Stella Hack-ett, trustee. Girl Scout Council Holds Election The Sidehill Realty Corp. builders of the Wonder Homes located on Bay and Water ave-nues in Hicksville have in this issue of Newsgram devoted one whole page to wish the Grum-man employees and their friends a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. This in itself is proof that the builders of the Wonders Homes are a real out-fit to do business with and it shews the manner in which they do business. Tlie most marvelous Christmas gift you can give your family is a Wonder Home and the down payment would probably not ex-ceed more than you would spend for gifts for the entire family. The least you can do is to visit these homes and see the wonder-ful qualities and values offered for the money. In tinif.s like these it Is most essential for liie defense worker to be near his work. Much trav-eling time and money can be Mrs. Henry C. Ebish was ap-pointed Tegistar of the Mid Is-land Council of Girl Scouts, at an executive meeting of the council at the Nicholai Street school in Hicksville. Mrs. Robert W. Kampschulte of Parmingdale was elected com-missioner to fill the vacancy left by the resignation of Mrs. Edgar Z. Wallower. The council also elected other officers to various posts. They are Mrs. Frederick Whaley, Sy-osset, first deputy commissioner; Mrs. Joshua Tisdale of Jericho, second deputy commissioner; 'Mrs. Elizabeth Delaney. secre-tary; and Mrs. William L. Carter, treasurer. saved by living near to your work. This could be put into a Wonder Home. Many Grumman employees al-ready are the proud owners of a Wonder Home. Their testimony; is proof that these homes are all and even more than Uie builder claiinp. for them. man Moreland Jr. who is at the head of all Nassau County air raid wardens, this work is even more important than the duties of an air raid warden. It is the duty of the observer to spot en-emy planes first and to note their position, number of planes and direction of flight. The observer must then immediately report this information to the Mitchol Field headquarters. The Mitchel Field authorities in turn contact the Nassau County Police head-quarters who in turn flash the signal to the defense councils who relay the signal to our local wardens. It is then the duty of the wardens to sound the alann warning the civilian population. Therefore, it is not hard to real-ize the tremendous task and ut-most importance of the observa-tion posts. • All volunteers must be able to speak English fluently and be able to report or relay messages over the telephone. They must be residents of Parmingdale, Hicksville, Bethpage or Plain-view. Those who wish to and'are able and feel that it is their duty to help protect their fellow citizens and their country to volunteer for this service may contact im-mediately either the Bethpage Firehouse on Stewart avenue or James "Happy" Norman who:-e telephone number is Hicksville 873.

GIFFORD (To the tune of "Notre Dame Victory March") Let's get the Japs on tihe run, Next the Italians, then get the Hun; Let us give them all weVe got, Bring down their planes with every shot.

Frequently Asked Questions / Types of Cancer / Skin Cancers / Melanoma
Last Modified: March 18, 2007
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
I have had melanoma twice in the past 15 years. I have hundreds of moles and have been diagnosed with dysplastic nevi. I live in a state with poor medical resources for my situation. I have gone without medical monitoring for the past 7 years, and my current Doctor is suggesting an aggressive course of biopsies (approx 3 to 5 per month) for the next 12 months. I have heard of mole mapping, and I am having a difficult time finding information about it. I am wondering if it is an effective tool for diagnosis, and if it would be a viable option to take in lieu of such an aggressive biopsy schedule or possibly prior to such a schedule?
Christopher J. Miller, MD, Assistant Professor of Dermatology at the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania, responds:
Mole mapping refers to full body photography to track changes in existing nevi or the development of new nevi. Our pigmented lesion group at University of Pennsylvania (led by Dr. Michael Ming) follows patients with this technique. A photographer is present in the clinic to take numerous photos and close-ups of abnormal moles. These photos are kept in the patient's file for reference at each visit. I use it very selectively in my own clinic, usually for patients that are anxious about their moles or those who have too many to track with notes. Some doctors use computer programs that allow you to zoom in and out of the full body photography to get closer looks than print photography will allow.
Random sampling of 3-5 nevi every month for a year sounds very aggressive. Certainly it is reasonable to biopsy the most atypical nevi on clinical exam. If one of them is read as a melanoma, then additional biopsies may be warranted. If all are read as atypical nevi on histopathology, it would be more reasonable to have regular skin examinations by a dermatologist.
Full-body photography could be very helpful in your case, because you will want to become comfortable examining your own skin for changes in existing nevi. In a patient with innumerable nevi, it's nearly impossible to keep track of changes without photography for reference. If you note any changes, a biopsy is warranted. Your photos will also be helpful for your dermatologist, who will use the photos to help decide whether or not to biopsy.

Sledge Hammer Stories: Out with the Outdoor Room
January 21, 2010Once upon a time… there existed a makeshift home addition known affectionately as the "Outdoor Room". This little room had four wood paneled walls, plenty of windows and, um, well-used blue berber rug.
Upon purchasing our casita we knew our outdoor room needed to be at the top of the Honey-Do list. There was so very much to do though that it eventually fell somewhere between fix plumbing, re-wire knob & tube electrical and replace bathroom. Whew! Our list was starting to get long… But then one sweet summer day (pre all of the above list items), we decided to get moving on our new outdoor space… and visions of bbqing, sipping red wine and laughing with friends around a sweet outdoor fireplace began dancing through our minds.
I can't think of a better way to spend a summer evening… and so the project was on.
Before we could design the perfect space, however, some major sweat was involved in tearing down the entire room (this is where the sledge hammer comes in), ripping up hundreds of bricks & slabs of cement, and clearing much backyard space. BUT… this is sort of what we had in mind when it would be finished:
Stay tuned! And if you really love home makeover projects, wait until tomorrow's Friday Guest Blog by Young House Love – a neat play-by-play of a terrific home renovation by two crafty twenty-something-year-olds. I found this awesome blog while searching for like-minded posts to learn from… and it's been an invaluable resource!

Sail-World.com : British Steel Challenge and Global Challenge at the London Boat Show
British Steel Challenge and Global Challenge at the London Boat Show

Pictured (left to right): Vivien Cherry, Richard Tudor (sailmaker), Will Sutherland, Pete Goss, Ian MacGillivray, Alec Honey (who dropped out before the race), Adrian Donovan, Mike Golding (fireman), John Chittenden and yacht surveyor Paul Jeffes.'
Barry Pickthall/PPL ©
Over 200 people have signed up to attend a 20th anniversary reunion this Saturday for skippers and crew from Chay Blyth's 1992-93 'wrong way' round-the-world British Steel Challenge yacht race, plus the four subsequent Global Challenge races.
The event will take place at the Tullett Prebon London Boat Show on Saturday 19th January, with Sir Chay Blyth attending. Race veterans coming from as far away as Australia, Hong Kong, New Zealand, USA and all across Europe.
It was on Saturday 26th September 1992 that ten 67ft steel yachts set off from Southampton for Rio de Janeiro, on the first 5,300-mile leg of the epic 28,000-mile race. The only other stops for the amateur sailors were Hobart, Tasmania, and Cape Town.
The Daily Mail dubbed the event 'The Mid-life Crisis Challenge' and some in the yachting establishment poured scorn on the project, saying it was foolhardy and irresponsible to send greenhorns into the Southern Ocean west-about around Cape Horn. Chay called the event 'the toughest yacht race ever – an extraordinary adventure for ordinary people.'
It cost £14,850 – or about 50p a mile – to sign up for the whole race – and there was a long waiting list. There was a two-year training programme with some crews enduring Force 10 winds in the English Channel in winter.
Most of the sailors were trained by Pete Goss, later appointed one of the skippers. Goss and Mike Golding are two of the skippers who will be absent from the reunion. The former is currently kayaking around Hobart and Golding is racing up the Atlantic on the final stretch of the solo, non-stopVendee Globe round the world race.
The Boat Show reunion includes plans for an auction of Global Challenge memorabilia, in aid of Save the Children, plus screening of videos from the Challenge events, and a buffet dinner. Two ex-Global Challenge yachts, Challenger 3/Sarah, operated by The Tall Ships Youth Trust, and Catzero, managed by the sail training charity, CatZero, are also at the show on the marina berth M163/4.
The organiser is sailing journalist Barry Pickthall who wrote the book 'No Guts - No Glory' on the event. Barry says: 'We have not managed to track down every crew member, so if you are still in contact with your crew-mates, please tell them, we don't want anyone to miss out!'
Tickets for the reunion are £20, including the buffet dinner, if you already have a boat show ticket, or £30 including the boat show. The Reunion buffet dinner will take place in the Platinum Suite level 3, (follow signs for the BMF/RYA Lounge) starting at 7pm, when the Show closes, and will continue until 11pm.

1. Why buses?
Buses will play a crucial role in the mobility transition in the big and medium rung cities. Cities need well managed, well organised modern buses that deliver efficient public transport services at affordable rates.
Read more
Buses provide the bulk of public transport services in many Indian cities. Its share in daily travel in bigger cities can be as high as 40-60 per cent. Cities are looking at bus transport reforms to reduce auto mobile dependence, congestion, and pollution. Cities like Delhi are setting such high targets as 80 per cent public transport share by 2020, but such a goal can be met only if bus transport is scaled up.

Palma de Mallorca Tourist Attractions
Palma de Mallorca (Majorcan Ciutat), capital of Majorca and of the Autonomous Community of the Balearics, is picturesquely situated on the Bahía de Palma, which reaches inland for some 20km/12.5mi on the southwest coast of the island. This lively city is an important Mediterranean port, the economic and cultural center of the islands and the see of a bishop. It was the birthplace in 1235 of the famous mystic, philosopher and writer Ramón Llull (Raimundus Lullus). With its busy central area, its historic old town and the extensive beaches surrounding the whole of the bay, Palma is one of the most popular holiday resorts in Spain and a good base from which to explore the rest of the island, since Majorca's whole road network is centered on the town.
Above the Old Harbor rises the cathedral (La Seo), a massive sandstone structure begun about 1230 in Early Gothic style but not completed until the 16th and 17th centuries, with three doorways, a beautiful south front (14th century), two 19th century towers and a bell-tower of 1270. From the terrace on the south side of the cathedral there is a magnificent view of the bay.
Cathedral Museum
A doorway on the north side of the cathedral leads into the Cathedral Museum, with three rooms displaying manuscript books of plainsong, altarpieces, a Late Gothic monstrance, sculpture and a variety of other sacred objects.
Cathedral - Interior
The interior of the cathedral, which is entered from the Museum, was remodelled by Antoni Gaudí in the early 20th Century. With its aisled nave rising to a height of 44m/144ft, it covers an area of 6600 sq.m/71,050 sq.ft. It is lit by stained glass windows and no fewer than seven rose windows, the largest of which, in the apse, dates from 1370. In the Capilla Real (Chapel Royal) is the high altar, over which is suspended a gigantic baldachin by Gaudí in the form of a crown of thorns. On the side walls are the tombs of Bishops Berenguer Batle and Guillem de Villanova, who made major contributions to the construction of the cathedral in the 14th century. Behind the Capilla Real are the bishop's throne and, in the Capilla de la Trinidad, the sarcophagi of Kings Jaime II and III.
Diocesan Museum
Directly opposite the choir of the Cathedral is the Bishop's Palace, which now houses the Diocesan Museum, with liturgical utensils, incunabula, ceramics, etc.
Palacio de la Almudaina
Opposite the west doorway of the cathedral is the Palacio de la Almudaina, once the residence of the Moorish viziers and from 1230 a royal stronghold. It is now occupied by military offices and by the Museo Nacional (National Museum). In the courtyard is the Gothic Capilla de Santa Ana.
Below the cathedral is the modern Parque del Mar, on the south wall of which is a tiled panel with a picture by Joan Miró. This leads into the palm-shaded Paseo Sagrera, which runs alongside the harbor. On the right is the Lonja (originally the Commercial Exchange), built in the 15th century in Gothic style by the Majorcan architect Guillem Sagrera.
Consulado del Mar
Adjoining the Lonja is the Consulado del Mar, the old Admiralty Court, with a beautiful Renaissance gallery around the upper floor. It is now occupied by the government of the Autonomous Community.
Mansión del Arte
In Calle de los Apuntadores, a little way north of the Parque del Mar, is the Mansión del Arte, with all Goya's etchings in original copies and works by Picasso.
Paseo del Borne
From the north end of the Paseo a street leads east past the Law Courts (Palacio Berga) and the Theater (Teatro Principal) to the Rambla (Via Roma), the city's second promenade. The flower market is held under the plane-trees here.
Plaza Mayor
Parc de la Mar
Several interesting attractions lay outside the borders of the city proper.
Palma de Mallorca - Huerta de Palma
The fertile Huerta de Palma, to the west of the Palma de Mallorca, is dotted with numerous villages, estates and country houses (Majorcan son). The best known of these houses are Son Vida (5km/3mi west), once the seat of the Marqués de la Torre, and Son Berga (6km/4mi north), which dates from 1776. Near the artists' colony of Genova (5km/3mi west) can be found an interesting little stalactitic cave. There are still large numbers of the characteristic Majorcan windmills in the Huerta.
Bahía de Palma
Portals Vells
The road continues from Bahía de Palma by way of Magalluf, an unfortunate example of the excesses of the tourist boom, to the village of Portals Vells, at the southern tip of the peninsula, with an old cave church in the bay. Above the coast road runs the motorway, which passes close to the Castillo de Bendinat (13th century).
Palma Nova
At Palma Nova the C 719 comes to the Coll de sa Batalla (Battle Pass), where Jaime I's army defeated the Moors. The motorway runs east from Palma to the airport of Son San Juan (10km/ 6mi).
El Arenal
The parallel coast road runs from Palma Nova through a number of old fishing villages and past the extensive sandy beaches of the Playas de Palma to El Arenal, one of the great centers of mass tourism. This stretch of coast is now an almost continuous tourist resort, well provided with hotels, restaurants, shops and places of entertainment.
Cueva de Genova, Genova
Location: Province of Balearics; on Majorca, 4.5km/3mi west of Palma at Génova; entrance beside a house. Features: A series of chambers, with large numbers of delicate stalactites and stalagmites in a variety of colors. Conducted tour.
Red Lightning
On Majorca railroad enthusiasts will enjoy a trip on the old-world train which runs from Palma to Sóller, from which an equally nostalgic tram runs through orange and lemon groves to Puerto de Sóller. Information from the station in Palma or from a Majorcan tourist office.
The resort town of Paguera is becoming more popular due to its three coves and the scenic mountains that surrounding the town.
Majorca - Sierra del Norte
The mountains along the northern shore of Majorca contain many interesting attractions.
The town of Magalluf is known for its long beaches and pine forest.
The airport is located 10km east of Palma
Several events take place across the island.
Fiestas de San Antonio Abad, Sa Pobla
On January 17, the village of Sa Pobla holds a festival in honor of San Antonio Abad.

Duloxetine was first synthesized in the 1980s and subsequently patented in 1991. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) did not approve this drug for the treatment of major depressive disorder and diabetic neuropathy, however, until the third quarter of 2004. This long delay occurred because the drug was initially tested in depressed patients at low dosages of 5–20 mg/day, which were not efficacious. Duloxetine has received approval in most countries worldwide since then but became available in Canada only in 2008. It is also approved in the United States for generalized anxiety disorder and fibromyalgia. Milnacipran was approved in France for the treatment of depression in 1996 but only recently was approved for use in North America for patients with fibromyalgia.

By LYNNETTE HINTZE
The Daily Inter Lake
BIGFORK (AP) - The show must go on.
Bigfork Summer Playhouse owners and producers Don and Jude Thomson have lived and breathed that sentiment for more than four decades. A career in theater brings with it occasional unintended drama.
There was the time, the Thomsons recalled, when a portable stage floor began rolling away during a show under the weight of several male dancers. Someone crawled underneath and strong-armed the set, holding it in place as footsteps thundered atop.
The show must go on.
There was the time a young woman fell through a platform that was missing at the top of a set of makeshift stairs. She fell through and delivered her lines without a hitch.
The show must go on.
And the Bigfork couple hasn't forgotten the young actress with pancreatitis who had to be replaced during the summer season. Later, her replacement had to be replaced.
The show must go on.
Those nerve-racking moments make for good stories, but they're overshadowed by decades of crowd-pleasing productions and a passion for theater that has shaped the lives of hundreds of aspiring musicians and actors who have packed their bags and headed to Bigfork. Many have returned for several summer seasons.
It was the summer of 1964 when then University of Montana Department of Drama/Dance chairman Bo Brown hired Don to design and build scenery during the playhouse's early years. Jude joined the crew as musical director in 1965, the same year she married Don.
The two had met at the university in 1964 when Jude was watching a band rehearsal in the University Theatre and noticed a student building a stage set. The young man was perturbed that his progress was being hindered by the rehearsal under way. That disgruntled student was Don.
They've been in the theater ever since.
After completing his master's degree in theater at UM in 1966, Don was offered his first job in Kearney, Neb., where he taught at Kearney State University in the drama/dance department for six years.
He fondly remembers the road trips from Nebraska to New York City with theater students to watch Broadway shows. Back then, it only cost $100 a person for transportation and show tickets, an immeasurable bargain.
''If kids get the opportunity to see professional theater, it's such a learning experience,'' he said.
Bigfork lured the Thomsons back each summer. Jude noted that her big production during the 1967 season was the birth of their first son, Brach. Her time as a faculty wife was full. In addition to caring for her son, she was a member of the Mother Singers, a parent-teacher association group for which she played piano. Their second son, Gavin, was born in 1971.
After that, it was on to Great Falls, where Don taught at C.M. Russell High School for six years.
The playhouse continued to beckon them, and they answered.
In the mid-1970s they decided to devote their lives to theater and bought the playhouse. The Bigfork Fire Department later deemed the building unsafe for theater productions, so the Thomsons donated it to the city. It was bulldozed to make way for a new playhouse in 1988.
Don grew up in the small town of Harlowton, where Don's parents and grandparents encouraged his interest in theater. He's tackled every aspect of the playhouse - actor, producer, director, set builder and teacher.
Jude, a Kalispell native, has focused her efforts on music, as musical director and piano player for the theater company.
The offseason is anything but down time for the Thomsons. They plan and prepare for the summer productions - four musicals and two comedies - and travel to regional auditions to find the 45 to 50 people they'll need to round out the summer crew. It's a mix of singers, actors, dancers and technical staff.
The auditions are competitive, and it's not always easy to lure young actors and musicians to northwestern Montana. Some fear they won't get enough exposure in a place like Bigfork, but usually they fall in love with both the playhouse and the community.
''When their parents come to visit, they're blown away,'' Don said. ''Some of them buy property'' before they leave town.
''We've seen a lot of talent,'' he added. ''We've been fortunate to have good kids. What they've brought with them has enhanced the theater.''
The Thomsons have well-deserved bragging rights. Thirty playhouse alumni have appeared on Broadway, 10 of them with leading roles.
J.K. ''Kim'' Simmons is one of the most well-known alumni. He's appeared in several movies and is ''on his way up,'' Don said. But every year, he returns to Bigfork for the annual softball game between the theater and the ''townies.''
About half of the crew returns for more than one season. The percentage has gone down a little; the loyalty playhouse owners saw in the 1970s and '80s isn't there anymore, they noted, a trend not isolated to the theater industry.
The Thomsons operate the playhouse as a for-profit business, although a nonprofit children's theater was added four years ago. A scholarship program is an avenue for local theater supporters to donate money.
It hasn't always been easy to make a living running a summer theater, they admit. Jude taught piano lessons to help make ends meet. Over the years their tireless dedication paid off.
This year's lineup includes the musicals ''Chicago,'' ''Grease,'' ''Crazy For You'' and ''Anything Goes.'' The season kicks off with ''Bullshot Crummond,'' a farce set in the 1930s. It's a takeoff on the old ''B'' detective movies and has everything from plane crashes to car chases to sword fights.
The fall production is still undecided, and may give way to renovating the playhouse.
Forty years of summer productions have yielded some great performances. A few of the Thomsons' favorites are the 1977 production of ''Brigadoon,'' the 1982 production of ''Sugar,'' ''Paint Your Wagon'' in 1984 and last year's production of ''Cats.''
"'Cats' was extremely good,'' Jude said. ''It was difficult to do, but it ended up very well-received.''
Knowing how tough it can be to make a living doing summer theater, the Thomsons told their sons to ''stay out of the arts.''
But they couldn't stay away. Both have moved back to Bigfork with their families. Gavin is the playhouse's technical director; Brach directs the children's theater and puts together the music for those productions.

An oncoming train crashes into the truck, killing a driver of one of the cars and one of the engineers on the train, and seriously injuring the other engineer.
This was the scenario acted out Thursday morning by Redmond Regional Medical Center, Rome High School health occupation students and the Floyd County Community Emergency Response Team.
The drill began on Lavender Drive with "patients" being taken to Redmond for "evaluation."
"It helps us make sure we have best practices in place in the event of an actual emergency," said Andrea Pitts, spokeswoman for Redmond. "We look at what we are doing and how we can make it better."
About 50 people participated in the drill.
Vicki Wiles, who leads the Floyd County CERT team, said she participates in about three or four drills in the Floyd County area each year.
She also serves as clerkship coordinator with the Medical College of Georgia's Northwest Clinical Campus and said she hopes to have students from the college participating in the drills in future years.
"From the Rome High School students' perspective, who are interested in health care careers, I think it was helpful for them to see that health care has many moving parts," Wiles said.

My hypothesis: "green" "consensus" shortens life, and political correctness kills.
Neither make quality of life any better, except for the elites that sell the modern day 'indulgences' (and even then, they are so hooked on control, power and money, they still sell out, like Al Gore to Oil-Jazeera.)
'Air quality' 'regulations' make everything you need to live cost more, too. Even cell phone coverage in Southern California, is worse and more expensive because of all the red tape and pointless rules. And with all the fines and fees, the bureaucracy still runs in the red, or worse.
This is a parable, and my favorite analogy of, liberal rage... http://youtu.be/TCDbY_lXS5A
If I were Chik-fil-A I would offer this guy a job; contingent only upon him stopping making these reckless videos of himself. (That's what would show that he has learned anything from the mess he's made.)
That's what I've wondered since this first came up. If you're Chief (insert blank) of anything, why would you allow yourself to get wrangled into a public debate that has nothing to do with the company, that by your mere job title alone, you represent. I don't know why society allows 'journalists' to spin up, into a storm, the passive, interview responses of Chik-fil-A's president.
HOWEVER, once you've seen that storm, and its effect on that business, WHY would you ever actively insert yourself (and inevitably your company name,) into that mess?
I have to say I don't feel sorry that this guy lost his position, and I don't believe, after seeing these videos, that his company wasn't already considering it, before hand.
I am a collectivist. I believe in what is the most humanly best possible, for the most possible humans. I am a collectivist that came to realize that the best thing for the collective is having the most liberty for the individual, coupled with individual responsibility, with government limited to precious few responsibilities and regulation. My favorite brushes have been with my own rage with my own ignorance, as I realize that the most effective way to make someone feel responsibility (for anything) and to seek the best outcome, is for them to own it, and themselves.
Collectivism is always the best possible solution for all of humanity's problems... next time. (Not now, we never get it right, now)
I believe that with freedom from State-sponsored religion should come freedom from State-sponsored atheism.
Maybe it's just me?
I had no idea. Kudos Jef. (Except, couldn't you find a nice Mormon girl? you just HAD to go on TV, and date a gentile.) ((LOL))
On a serious note, (and to add more merely anecdotal conversation,) I only personally know a few individuals who were excommunicated from the LDS Church. One wanted to be bi-sexual at the time, but has had enough, and has rejoined, the other sadly committed suicide.
There are all sorts, and as far as American Pop Culture goes, Mormons are just another part of it, at the coincidental nexus - that just as they "get noticed" on a national scale, it seems they have been left behind with the part of the culture that doesn't like the way the culture is headed. So we are faced with being accepted as fellow crusaders in a quest to preserve what's good about it, by the same type of people, who back when America seemed so much better, would reject us as an aberration. (Which may explain some of the Mormons on the left, like Harry Reid)
I wonder if Jews felt this at the time they were finally being viewed as mainstream America, too?
Is it just me, or does referring to it as the "Batman Shooting" or the "Dark Knight Shooting" just add to the perversion?
They've managed to come up with something that sounds even LESS like something the government should be involved in, and more like something that needs to be left to families, loved ones.
Line them with Korans? Moat of pigs blood? (sorry I'm not in a serious mood.)
To answer the headline: No, but I have lost a conservative spouse to a brain tumor. Literally, my wife got a lesion near her brain stem, and turned into a raging progressive, and she left me, and later was committed to an asylum for paranoid schizophrenia by her mother.
It is a case for taking literally the "liberalism is a mental disorder."
If anything, it will have a "break-even" effect, because of added energy to limit government. No? Wishful thinking? Too much choir, not enough preacher?
I wonder if anything politically, smart or otherwise, can be made from ObamaCare, or shall I say the ObamaTax, having originated in the Senate, rather than the House, in conflict with Article 1, Section 7, of the US Constitution, and the fact that it steals billions and billions from medicare.
This is the type of politics that needs to stay local. In any case, and I don't mean to be mean, but if all the Libertarians I know showed up in bathing suits, the community standards would ban swimsuits, not because of lewdness, but revulsion.
Circuses. People gonna' have 'em one way or another. Sorry to be rude; Spain must be rubbing off on me, and sometimes I get sick of the paradoxical stereotype holding true, that the Spaniards most likely to get along with me as more conservative American, also tend to be more sensitive when it comes to perceived insults towards monarchy. So, usually I hold my tongue on the matter. I don't sense the same restraint here, so...

That being said, For Greater Glory / Cristiada looks like it's going to be a blast, and it is practically non-fiction. Now to see if I can find a theater in Spain that will screen it. · 8 minutes ago
I'm really excited about this film thanks to Member FelicaB who's written a few posts about it.
But I'm curious? Why does this film in particular come to mind when discussing conservative pop culture? · 10 hours ago
Because, back during the World Youth Day here in Madrid, Catholic acquaintances accepted my Mormonism, as co-defenders of traditional family life, and they said it was going to be a great movie. Since then, I've been interested in seeing this movie about the people fighting to keep their religious freedom, against Mexican state-sponsored atheism.

Drive underway for dog park in Westminster
Carroll County (Maryland) residents have launched a drive to build a dog park in Westminster.
Earlier this year, the Board of County Commissioners agreed to set aside land for a dog park, and selected Bennett Cerf Park, located off Route 27, across the street from the Random House Publishing Co.
The county has agreed to provide the space, but dog park supporters will have to buy equipment and maintain the park.
Supporters of the park will be at the Carroll County Pet Expo on June 16, at the Carroll County Agriculture Center, hoping to raise money.
"We have given pamphlets out around different animal places and at various veterinarians," said Laurie Walters of Westminster, one of the organizers of the project, told the Baltimore Sun.
The town of Mount Airy has its own dog park, but the Bennett Cerf location would become the first county-owned dog park. The dog park will be about an acre in size and will be located where the park's tennis courts were before they were removed last year.
Supporters estimate it will cost about $15,000 to get the park ready to open. Initial plans call for building a fence, a double-gated entry and resurfacing the area with grass and stone dust.
"It will be a 'bare bones' dog park," Walters said. "… We won't have, at the beginning, benches or running water."
The park will be restricted to members who pay a yearly access fee, probably around $30. Before becoming a member, owners must show proof of their dogs having and license and proper vaccinations.
Walters first approached the City of Westminster in 1997 about creating a dog park. While the city was in favor of the idea, it had trouble finding a suitable location, she said.
The Carroll Kennel Club has pledged to match donations up to $7,500 through the end of 2012, Walters said.
Supporters of the Bennett Cerf Dog Park project will be at the Pet Expo on Saturday, June 16, from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Those wishing to donate to the project can also write to Bennett Cerf Dog Park, Carroll County Recreation and Parks, 300 S. Center Street, Westminster, MD 21157.

Many cities would feel the impact of losing more than $50,000 in sales tax revenue, but for a town the size of Resaca, it's a staggering blow.
It could be a reality if Gordon County and the qualified municipalities of Fairmount and Calhoun adopt a proposed Local Option Sales Tax (LOST) agreement that calls for a reduction to Resaca's share of the tax revenue from $135,000 per year to $84,000.
"It's a lot of money," Resaca mayor Samuel Allen said. "We have made a plea to the county and the city of Calhoun that we have a new sewer system in the works and we need the funds."
The LOST funds are dispersed to Gordon County, Calhoun, Fairmount and Resaca based upon population numbers, based no prior, state-mandated negotiations.
LOST agreements are renewed every 10 years in accordance with changes in census figures.
Resaca's population decreased during the last decade by roughly 200 people, Allen said. As a result, the town's share of tax revenue would decrease under the new agreement.
Under the previous agreement, Resaca received 1.75 percent of the $8.4 million collected in total LOST revenue. The new agreement cuts that by .75 to the minimum one percent allowed by law.
Though the loss is significant, Allen said he does not expect it to bankrupt the town.
Town leaders will look for ways to offset the loss, he said, which could include enacting business licenses, trimming staff or — as a last resort — raising property taxes.
"When we got into the LOST program (in 2009), we were just glad to get in," Allen said. "Don't get me wrong, we want what's coming to Resaca, but the county and Calhoun have really been good to us and we have worked together."
Resaca Town Council members agreed unanimously on Thursday to approve a balanced budget for the fiscal year May 1, 2012-April 30, 2013 that does not take into consideration the $50,000 shortfall that the new LOST agreement would create.
Members said they would meet again to amend the budget if the new LOST agreement is accepted.
Included in the budget was $18,000 in abandoned money that had been tied up in the courts. The money could serve as some relief to the city if the LOST dollars are decreased. The budget called for $391,580 in total revenue, equal to the total amount of expenditures.
"We want to provide the same services for the people of Resaca that we have been providing," said councilman Brant Talley. "We want to do it economically."
Talley has championed the idea of adding business licenses to the revenue stream of Resaca and he expects them to be a reality before the first of the year.
"There are ways to make up what we would lose in LOST dollars," he said.
Resaca is not alone in its objections to the proposed agreement. Fairmount is set to lose more than 47 percent of its LOST revenue due to a decreased population.
Under the proposed agreement, Gordon County would see a .35 percent increase in LOST revenue and Calhoun's share would go up 2.35 percent, both reflecting increases in population in those areas.
In a meeting between the county and municipalities on Tuesday, July 24, negotiations stalled and Fairmount leaders indicated they would seek arbitration if no equitable agreement was reached.
The arbitration process involves submitting the complaint to the superior court which then assigns the petition to a judge from another circuit who ultimately makes a final ruling.
Allen and the Resaca council members present Thursday said they were unsure if the town planned to pursue arbitration.
State law requires that the county and qualified municipalities reach an agreement within 60 days of July 1, 2012 or submit to arbitration.

Holloman readies to get Raptors, retire F-117s.
The stealth fighter once called the "hopeless diamond" because it's odd radar-dispersing geometry made it an improbable flier is on its way out at Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexico, but it will be replaced by one of the forces' newest gems, the F-22 Raptor.
Although F-117 pilots defend their beloved Nighthawk, which is still flying vital missions, the base's new commander, Brig. Gen. David L. Goldfein, said the F-22 can perform missions done by at least four other aircraft "equally as well, and in many cases, better."
The Raptor can engage in combat with other fighters, execute deep strikes in heavily defended target areas, perform precision bombing missions like the F-117, provide close support for ground forces and more, he said.
"The F-117, like all aircraft throughout our history has a life cycle," Goldfein said. "It just gets old and becomes more expensive to own and operate."
The F-22 will do "the future jobs that we have been called upon to do," Goldfein said, adding that the Raptor will allow quicker planning
Early estimates are that the transition will cost about $54 million, said Maj. John Mihaly, chief of the 49th Fighter Wing Integration Office, which doesn't include the cost of planes or regularly scheduled personnel rotations.
The money mostly will be used to pay for modernization and a few new buildings such as an airspace ground equipment facility for storage and repair work, and a munitions trailer repair facility, which is needed because of the F-22s expanded weapons capabilities, Mihaly said.
In 2007, 10 F-117s will be retired with another 40 going in 2008, "which will retire the fleet here," Mihaly said, and a few "test birds" at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., will be retired in 2008, which will account for the entire Nighthawk fleet.
As it stands, the F-117s are slated to be sent to the "boneyard" at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz. But Holloman officials are working with Congress to find a more cost-effective way to decommission the fleet.
Using the boneyard will require an upfront investment of $5 million and more money each year for security considerations, including patrols and intrusion alarm systems, Mihaly said. The stealth technology, which includes unique geometry and surface coatings, still is considered classified and sensitive.
One possibility that has been discussed is sending the aircraft to Tonopah Test Range Airfield in Nevada, where the Nighthawk was born. "If hangar space is available, that would be great," Mihaly said.
New arrivals
The first Raptor is set to arrive at Holloman in late 2008 with about two aircraft each month until the full contingent of 40 aircraft is in place, which will take about two years. Base officials are working to get a training aircraft in early 2008 so that maintenance crews can familiarize themselves with the new technology.
"The ones we get here will be coming right off the assembly line," Mihaly said of the wing's 40 aircraft. So far, there has not been a deadline set for the wing to be "mission ready."
The unit will have to get the needed equipment and supplies to be mission ready, he said. That includes everything from oil to armament.
Although there always is uncertainty with this level of change, Mihaly said, Holloman appears to be perfectly suited to become home to the Raptor.
"The F-117 and the F-22 are the same size," Mihaly said, "so they can park in the same hangars."
Some hangar modifications will be required, he said, but they can be done at "very little cost." And the experts on what is called "low-observable" technology will still be needed for the Raptor, which also is a stealth aircraft.
"We will be able to transfer most of our maintenance people in place from the F-117 to the F-22," Mihaly said of the approximately 2,000-person workforce. "It's good news for them. It puts them on a career path so theyre on to the latest and greatest technology."
So far, only one pilot has been identified who will move from the Nighthawk to the Raptor. Mihaly, said there will be a few others, but most of the pilots will go on to other assignments.
Some of the equipment can be used on either aircraft, but things such as simulators and engine test cells will have to be modified or replaced, Mihaly said.
Many of the mission support jobs, which include police and civil engineers, also aren't dependent on the type of aircraft flown at the base. In particular, the base security required for the F-22 and the F-117 are the same, Mihaly said.
Other groups, such as the medical group and the Basic Expeditionary Airbase Resources group, which can set up airfields just about anywhere, will be "basically unaffected," he said.
Coming together
Goldfein, base commander, said there are other reasons Holloman is a good choice for the F-22. He points to the central location in relation to Air Force assets in Texas, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico and other states.
"The perfect storm is building here, in a good way," Goldfein said. "In the (geographic) center, the bullseye hits Holloman and White Sands Missile Range."
But it is a partnership with the Army that he is currently focused on. He already is directing planning to integrate the F-22 with the Army's Future Combat Systems program, which includes an evaluation brigade combat team at Fort Bliss that will test and evaluate the Army's newest high-tech weaponry and communications systems.
"FCS and the F-22 are a perfect marriage," Goldfein said. "As we test and develop FCS and bring on the F-22, we will look at how these systems grow together. ... The F-22 with its embedded (communications and electronics systems), will tie into the developing joint operations that will establish the tactics and procedures for what will be used worldwide."
Ideally, the more precise application of firepower made possible by technological advances incorporated in the F-22 will allow ground and air forces to work more closely together and avoid self-inflicted casualties, he said. The precision also will allow combined missions in confined urban environments.
"If that's the way we're going to fight, that's the way we're going to train," Goldfein said. Right now, "the individual elements of training, they're all disconnected."
Goldfein said adjustments would focus on daily activities rather than large exercises or deployments. The first challenge will be to coordinate training schedules and create the communications infrastructure. White Sands would serve as the communications hub, he said.
The forces could be brought together, for example, to practice a combat search and rescue, he said. Elements would include a Predator (unmanned aerial vehicle), airborne radar planes, special forces soldiers and a maneuver unit on the ground, Goldfein said.
The fliers would be responsible for orchestrating the rescue, while the ground unit would execute a "suppression maneuver" to keep enemy forces from attacking the rescuers, he said. Only the ground forces and Holloman fliers would be real, "everything else is virtual," he said.
However, the scenario would not be programmed. Instead it would rely on human operators simulating the air reconnaissance and other elements at remote sites. Such exercises require human input, he said, "because it's a very dynamic situation and you just can't script these things out."

What a difference 3 years in information makes! The -117s, as most of you may already know, did NOT go to AMARG. Instead, they went to a climate controlled hangar at TTR, where, with the exception of a few components, they are maintained in flyable storage. At least one bird has recently returned to flight, although its current status is unknown.
Only one bird was destroyed, in what has now become a very famous photograph on the internet. That was intentionally done, and the word I have received from multiple sources was that the bird in question was NOT in flyable condition before the destruction/aircraft disposition test.
As an aside, since the article mentions it, Holloman is now about to trade in those very same F-22s that they received in 08-09 for F-16s. Once the Vipers arrive on station at KHMN, the 49th Wing will transfer to AETC.
