Planning Board to Review Tree Canopy Conservation Bill
The Montgomery County Council will hold a public hearing on the bill Jan. 17.
Rhe Montgomery County Planning Board is expected to review on Thursday a tree canopy conservation bill proposed by the Montgomery County Council in November.
Bill 35-12 would protect existing tree canopy, create a fund to plant new trees, and "establish procedures, standards, and requirements to minimize the loss and disturbance of tree canopy as a result of development," according to the language proposed.
Planning staff has recommended that the Planning Board support the bill with amendments.
The county council will hold a public hearing on Bill 35-12 on Jan. 17 at 7:30 p.m. at the Council Office Building, 100 Maryland Avenue, in Rockville.

What is the council proposing? Has anyone noticed how the wetlands "preserve" is being dug up behind the library on Century?

Are you talking about this? http://patch.com/A-sVsr

Yes. I am glad the wetlands is being preserved but I am concerned about the uprooting of wild grasses and the huge amount of dug up soil. It is hard to believe the birds and water animals are just hanging out waiting for everything to
be back in place. I think the wetlands area will be smaller than it was and much less wild.

WESTON RANCH - The Cougars found a way to get the job done. Still mathematically alive for a playoff spot, Weston Ranch (2-2, 4-3) defeated Valley Oak League rival Lathrop Spartans at Friday's homecoming game, 15-6. "Lathrop always plays us tough," said Cougars coach Mike Hale, who was spotted with an early 2-0 lead thanks to a safety. The Spartans (0-4, 0-6) were pinned back to their end zone on their ...
An action-packed 3-3 tie felt like a win for both Manteca High and visiting rival Sierra at Guss Schmiedt Field Friday night.
Manteca faces a must-win situation in Sonora on Friday, when the Buffaloes tangle with a squad just as desperate for a victory.
The Manteca and Sierra freshman football teams traded three-touchdown scoring runs, but it was the former that came out on top of a resounding 32-20 victory at Daniel Teicheira Memorial Stadium last Thursday.
For four quarters on Friday both Manteca and Sierra high school sophomore teams battled in Valley Oak League action, but when time was complete the two clubs were tied 13-13.
Anthony Cota laughs last. Sierra's star running back accounted for all five of his team's touchdowns and churned out 222 rushing yards on 22 carries as the Timberwolves rolled to an emotional 35-26 victory at Manteca High's Guss Schmiedt Field. Manteca still leads the all-time series, 12-6. Cota started his high school career at Manteca but transferred after his freshman year. He returned to his old stomping grounds as a sophomore on ...
LATHROP – In what would have been a Lathrop High School Homecoming miracle, the Spartans did their best to pull off the unthinkable but couldn't come close in a 42-0 Valley Oak League loss Friday to the Oakdale Mustangs.
RIPON – The Indians were locked in a dog-fight of a homecoming game battle against Hughson.
Sierra's freshman football team fired on all cylinders in its crosstown confrontation at East Union last Thursday.
There was no mistaking the more dominant team Friday as the Sierra Timberwolves followed an impressive win over the Oakdale Mustangs with a one-sided blowout of the visiting East Union Lancers.
For the better part of the Manteca-Weston Ranch freshman football game the squads played close in an intense Valley Oak League match up. The Buffaloes held an ever so slim12-8 at the intermission.
It only took Manteca 3 minutes and 40 seconds to start celebrating its first touchdown, but Weston Ranch had no desire to be a Homecoming blowout. The Cougars showed a bit of resiliency yet still fell to Manteca High 34-6 Friday.
The Sierra High Timberwolves made plenty of the right reads at Friday's homecoming game against East Union.
SALIDA - Modesto Christian capped the school's 50-year anniversary celebration and Homecoming festivities with a fireworks show immediately after Friday's Trans-Valley League showdown with Ripon.
Andrew Brown has had his fair share of success throughout his brief varsity career, but his performance Friday in a 50-14 win over Denair is not something even Ripon Christian fans have grown accustomed to.

Are there any instruction available for this module? Does the tracking coded need to be inserted into the site's HTML template or does this get done to every page dynamically by the module. I've tried various combinations, but my site does not get tracked.
Sorry if this issue has been covered in other posts, but I can't seem to find any information on the the site.
Hi Deano,
Have you got the module published on every page of your site? Have you filled in all the parameter fields for it? Do you have a clicky account? (silly question probably)
Also, can we get the link for the site so we can see if hte code is being loaded correctly?
Hi Daniel
Yep, got an account, published the module on every page(I currently also have the tracking script at the bottom of my template file too. Will this cause a conflict? It wasn't working without it either)and filled the parameters with the details provided by get clicky. My site is: swsixteen.com. I can create an admin account for you and PM you the details if you want to look at the backend.
Thanks for the speedy response, it's refreshing to get prompt feedback from a forum, especially when you're not a paying member.
PS I'll be happy to make a dontation to the site or upgrade my membership if I can get this sorted ASAP.:)
Hi Deano,
doesnt appear to be published from the source code. could you drop me a pm with the details
I can see the code you inserted into the template, but I can't see the get clicky code from our module.
Have you published the module in a visible module position?
Turn the title on and see if you can see the title.
An account would be great thanks. Much easier to test than to guess. ;)
I better hurry and fix this then if you will upgrade!
I had this published in the debug module area, but I've now repositioned it at the top module of the template, which appears on every page.
Only just done this so not sure if its made any difference yet
Have PMd login details to yourself and Richie yesterday and again to you today. Please let me know if you get them.
I got them and checked it out.
Once I moved it to the right module position it appeared fine.
Does your template even have a top or debug module position?
Also, when entering the name of the JS, don't put the .js extension, it get's added automatically.
Hi Daniel
Thanks for the help. Stats are showing now. The template does have a top and debug module position, but as it's working fine in the position you've used I'll leave it there.
For the record, does the tracking code need to be inserted into the template or does the module negate the need for this? May be a stupid question but I'm very much a newbie at setting up websites.
Looking forward to using more of your components and tutorials with my new membership.
I'll be sure to mention your sterling service in my review of this module.
Best wishes
Hi deano,
Glad you got it working.
To answer your question; yes, ninja clicky negates the need to put the clicky js in your template.
The only stupid question is the one not asked! :)
Please don't hesitate to ask when you aren't sure about anything at all to do with Joomla.
Like Mark said any question is fine.
We understand that everyone is a newbie at some point. No one was born knowing about Joomla ;)
The module will put your tracking code in yes, just make sure it is published on all pages you want to track.
Great that it's working!
By the way, the review you mentioned would be greatly appreciated.
You can either post one on our site if you look at the bottom of the community menu at the Customer Testimonials link.
Or you can put one on the JED.
Thanks a ton!

A Bassinet & More
Mums call our service, "a real Godsend". Hiring a hospital-style bassinet provides you peace of mind when Bub arrives home. It is the perfect height,safe, mobile,hygienic and serves as a Bed, Bath and Change Table all-in-one. It is familiar to Bub, Mum and Dad and is the most practical, convenient way to keep your precious new bundle of joy close to you anywhere in the home environment. Best of all you don't have to buy it - you hire it. We deliver to and pickup from your own front door. Please see our website for more info.The two most common words I hear from Mum's to describe our service is "Fantastic" and "Godsend". They tend to call the service fantastic and the bassinet a godsend. I wish I knew how to communicate this in a way that it didn't sound like we are blowing our own horn or "up ourselves". This really is the honest heartfelt feedback that I get on a daily basis.
Mums love the convenience of the bassinet. How it goes everywhere, the height and not having to bend over to pickup bub - especially the Caesar mums. Being able to see their baby through the sides at a moments notice is also important to them. And having bub up where dogs can't get to it and little siblings hands aren't disturbing it. One mum called it her mobile nursery. When it comes time to give the bassinet up it is the mum's that have to wean themselves of it - not so much the bubs! Visit Website

Pitchers throw live batting practice, hitters a little flummoxed
The first day that pitchers throw to hitters during a live batting practice session is always a little entertaining (if you're a pitcher), a little befuddling (if you're a hitter) and not at all telling as to how these guys will perform in another five weeks (if you're the manager).
Pitchers have a four-day head start on position players, and while that might not seem like a long time, it is. Pitchers have had a head start, getting their arms loose, throwing bullpens and slowly getting back into a (very preliminary) rhythm. Hitters, no matter how well-conditioned they are when they show up to camp and how much they've been hitting in the cages over the winter, are nowhere near where they will be in a few more weeks in terms of timing and simply shaking off the rust.
Fifteen pitchers threw live BP: LHPs Fernando Abad (pictured above), J.A. Happ, Sergio Escalona, Wandy Rodriguez, Wesley Wright; and RHPs Jeff Fulchino, Arcenio Leon, Wilton Lopez, Jordan Lyles, Brandon Lyon, Brett Myers, Lance Pendleton, Aneury Rodriguez, Fernando Rodriguez Jr. and Henry Villar.
The Astros will have similar workouts throughout the week, and next Sunday, in anticipation of the first Grapefruit League game the next day, will play an Intrasquad game. These usually run 5 1/2 innings and will likely be the first time the team plays on the main field at Osceola County Stadium.
Did you know? Hitting coach Mike Barnett was Michael Jordan's hitting coach at AA Birmingham in 1994. Barnett recalled how focused Jordan was, no matter what the task at hand: "That type of competitiveness, that type of work ethic, he was just a joy to work with every day."
General Manager Ed Wade, on what has surprised him about camp:
"I just think the whole tone and tenor has been very, very positive. I think part of it flows from the staff and the attention to detail as regard to the schedule, and Millsie preaching energy to the staff during the eight o'clock meeting before they ever go out onto the field to interact with the players. Let's keep the energy up. I think a lot of it flows from the approach they've taken. It hasn't been a case of any particular player standing out. It's a case of the guys collectively looking like they understand why they're here and having fun in the process."
The final Houston version of Astroline will take place Wednesday at Buffalo Wild Wings on Gray St. in Midtown, beginning at 7 p.m. CT. Our old buddy Phil Garner will join Milo Hamilton for the full hour and they welcome your calls (713-212-5874). The show is open to the public and will air on the club's flagship station, 740 KTRH. The show will also be streamed live on astros.com and will be available in the archives on the site soon after the broadcast.
There is a twist to this Wednesday's show: Astroline and Buffalo Wild Wings will be hosting a silent auction benefitting the Wounded Warrior Project, a fundraiser geared toward raising awareness and enlisting the public's aid for the needs of injured service members. Participants can purchase a $10 ticket, which entitles them to six traditional or eight boneless wings and a beverage. In addition, these guests will receive a ticket to participate in a raffle of one autographed item. The silent auction, which will contain many Astros autographed items, will be open from 6 to 9 p.m. CT.
On to the photos…

Disneyland Paris Celebrates 20 Years of Magic, Laughter and Dreams
From April 1, 2012 onwards, Disneyland Paris will be celebrating its 20th anniversary, in sparkling, colourful and magical style. Europe's leading tourist destination will be donning extra special lights and colours to celebrate its anniversary in a fitting manner.
20 Years of Magic
On April 12, 1992, Disneyland Paris opened its doors to thousands of impatient guests for the first time. 20 years have gone by 20 fairytale years, 20 years of enchantment, 20 years in which the dreams of millions of adults and children have come true.
These 20 years of history have been marked by major events including the opening of must-see attractions such as Indiana Jones and the Temple of Peril (1993), Space Mountain from the Earth to the Moon (1995) and The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror(1) (2008), as well as the opening of a second park, Walt Disney Studios Park, in 2002. In addition to the variety of attractions, shows and parades such as The TarzanTM Encounter (2000), Disney's Fantillusion (2003) and Disneys Once Upon a Dream Parade (2007) have left thousands of people with lifetime memories.
Every day, more than 14,500 Cast Members are at work on stage and backstage to provide our Guests with unforgettable memories.
2012: An Explosion of Magic, Lights and Colour for Disneyland Paris' 20th Anniversary
Throughout this exceptional year, there will be lots of surprises and new features, providing an explosion of magic, lights and colour. This amazing event is not to be missed!
From April 1, 2012 onwards, the Disneyland Park will be hosting "Disney Dreams!", an amazing night-time show, "Disney Magic on Parade!", a brand new parade, and "Meet Mickey Mouse ", a moving meeting with Mickey Mouse backstage in a music-hall theatre.
Walt Disney said: "Dream you life in colour, it's the secret of happiness." From April 1, 2012 onwards, the Disney Dreams! show will dazzle guests after dark with thousands of lights, colours and magic, thanks to never-before-seen special effects, showcased at Sleeping Beauty Castle. Peter Pan's shadow will play tricks and carry guests off through the greatest Disney stories and the worlds of dream and magic.
This breathtaking, all-new show, specially created for the 20th anniversary, will transform Sleeping Beauty Castle every evening, combining images, lasers, enormous water fountains and firework effects to create an explosion of colours and a totally new and unforgettable experience.
Magic is the watchword as the parade is transformed in honour of Disneyland Paris's 20th anniversary celebrations. New music, new floats, a new choreography and new characters will provide guests with a completely new experience. The parade will be even more romantic and fairytale than before, celebrating the most magical of Disney characters with Disney Magic on Parade!
During this special meeting, Mickey Mouse will welcome guests in a rehearsal room full of amusing props and his favourite costumes. Everyone will be able to take a photo with him, amid a sumptuous theatre decor. The magic will be at work during this brand new meeting for all the family.
Walt Disney dreamed of bringing to life the fairytales he enjoyed as a child, with a theme park for children and adults where they could let their inner child out again, and where children and parents could have fun together. To build this enchanted kingdom, he enlisted a team of experts, all with the same level of attention to detail and the same desire to bring to life the wonderful world of Disney films. After 20 years of enchantment, Disneyland Paris is still fuelling the dreams of young and old alike.
If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together.......
there is something you must always remember.
You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
But the most important thing is, even if we're apart...... I'll always be with you.
Winne the Pooh - A A Milne
A friend is a hand that is always holding yours,
no matter how close or far apart you may be.
A friend is someone who is always there and will always, always care.
A friend is a feeling of forever in the heart.

BY BONNIE PRINGLE - The Gasparilla Island Water Association, Inc. has called a special meeting of members for Thursday, April 5 at 5 p.m. in the Boca Grande Community Center Auditorium.
The official notice of the meeting, along with a proxy for those who cannot attend, was mailed out this week.
The News - Featured News
Hughes Gallery will be hosting a one-woman show for internationally celebrated portrait and representational artist, Gwenneth Barth White. Gwen's list of portrait clients includes royal families, leaders of industry and commerce, banking, government and diplomacy, as well as children and family groups.
Gwen is the current Vice-President of the oldest pastel society in the world, in France; a distinction no other American has ever had in that society.
She will be exhibiting a group of oil and pastel paintings, many inspired by our local beauty, On Friday and Saturday, March 9 and 10, with her reception from 1 to 7 p.m. both days.
BY MARCY SHORTUSE - When island resident Cal Groton went to have a small red mark on his leg checked out, he had no idea how many life-changing decisions would come before him in the next few months.
It all started with that little red mark in February, 2011. Dr. Russell Samson, a doctor with Sarasota Vascular Specialists, saw Cal in his office and asked if he would attend a screening at the Community House. He signed up and paid for the ultrasound and other tests that go along with it, then got the shock of his life.
As if the great food and music weren't enough, the 2012 Taste of Boca raised more than $31,000 for the Harry Chapin Food Bank of Southwest Florida. This brings the total amount of "Taste" donations over the last decade to more than $250,000.
Blanche Johnson, one of the coordinators of the event, said that an extraordinary thing happened this year to bring that total up a bit more.
"An anonymous person entered Hudson's Grocery, saw the Harry Chapin brown food bags and asked about them," she said. "That person gave the ladies at Hudson's $500 cash for the food bank, but the gentleman refused to identify himself."
It is a time for fun, a time for comaraderie, a time for food and drinks and a big, happy sleepover.
It's also a time for quiet reflection, a bit of sorrow, and lots of anger directed at one word: Cancer.

FRIDAY, May 14, 1869.The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR commanded order at 9 o'clock, and directed the reading of the minutes of yesterday.
Mr. JOHNSTON, of Montgomery, demanded a call of the Senate. And it being taken discovered but 32 Senators present and answering to their names-as follows:
Messrs. Andrews, Armstrong, Beardsley, Bellamy, Bradley, Case, Caven, Church, Cravens,Eliott, Fisher, Fosdick, Gray, Green, Hadley, Hamilton, Henderson, Hess, Hooper, Jacquess, Johnson of Spencer, Johnson of Montgomer, Kinley, Morgan, Rice, Reynolds, Robinson of Madison, Robinson of Decatur, Scott, Stein, Wolcott, and Wood-32.
Pending the roll call-
Mr. BRADLEY, as the names of the resigned Senators were severally called, announced that their absence was due to the fact that they had resigned on yesterday, and their resignations had been accepted by the Governor.
Mr. JOHNSTON, of Montgomery, stated that Mr. Denbo had received a letter from home which made it necessary for him to leave last night, and he had requested this to be said to the Senate when his name should be called.
When the roll call was completed-
The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR announced the number present, and stated: "there is no quorum present."
Mr. GRAY moved that the absentees be sent for.
Mr. CHURCH asked if these Senators resigned the same day that this Constitutional Amendment was ratified.
Mr. GRAY said we have no knowledge of their resignations except the independent statement of the members themselves.
Mr. MORGAN in reply to Mr. Church said: We have no knowledge of the 15th amendment having been ratified and of course cannot answer his question.
Mr. BRADLEY raised the point of order that it is necessary to know who the absentees are before we send for them.
Mr. GRAY. You have stated who they are.
Mr BRADLEY made his statements on this floor as the peer of every other Senator. I have stated it from my own personal knowledge that those Senators who I named have resigned their office and are not Senators nor members of the General Assembly. All others who absent without leave should be named and then writs can be issued for their arrest.
Mr. CRAVENS. The Senator from Laporte [Mr. Bradley] assumes to say who are the absentees. The roll call shows who they are, and that is the only evidence we have. The Senator very properly rises and says certain Senators have resigned. That is his opinion, and no doubt he states what he supposes to be true. But we cannot act on his statement. We must act in an official capacity; and we don't know that he has a power of attorney to speak for them or in their behalf. In the absence of official evidence, we should go on in the discharge of our duty under the Constitution, and that is to send for absentees-those who the roll call shows to be not present.
Mr. GREEN. We have an authorized agent to speak for these men if they have resigned, and that is the Governor. And when they do resign he will report it here. The Governor is the agent and not the Senator. We can not have it go upon record on his say so.
Mr. BRADLEY took issue with the Senator from Tipton, and insisted that the Governor is not our agent-he is not the agent of this Senate. If the Senate will not take the statement made here, he desired that a resolution may be adopted; calling upon the Governor to state whether or not the Senators have resigned.
Mr. FISHER. Suppose they had just been elected, came in without credentials, and he rose and stated that they were elected, would that justify the Senate in recognizing them?
Mr. BRADLEY never made such a statement. "Sufficient for the day is the evil thereof."
Mr. GRAY. We have but one evidence of the condition of the Senate on any question, and that is the record. The record shows that these gentlemen are members still. There is nothing on the record to show that they have resigned, and I claim that they are members of this Senate, and will remain so until the record shows different. The record is the evidence that must govern the Senate.
Mr. JOHNSTON of Montgomery. The law requires that these resignations shall be handed to the Governor and not to the Senate. The resignations have been handed to the Governor, and it has been so announced in the Senate. It was announced yesterday by the Senator from Jefferson (Mr. Cravens) that he saw 11 handed in. It is the duty of the Governor to make known to the Senate that these resignations have been handed in, and if he neglects his duty, does that make these men Senators?
Mr. BELLAMY. If there are any members claiming seats on this floor, they had better appear. If there are none, we are the constitutional body, and, have the power to go on and do business, or we are not. I send up the following resolution and - ask that it may be read for information:
Resolved, That thirty-two Senators having answered to their names, that being two-thirds of all Senators elected claiming seats on this floor, there is a quorum present to do business, and that we proceed accordingly.
page: 234[View Page 234]Mr. BELLAMY was of opinion that we are a Constitutional body, and, in order to test the sense of the Senate upon the subject, moved that further proceedings under the call be dispensed with, in order that we may hare an opportunity to consider this resolution.
The yeas and nays thereon being demanded, they were ordered and taken, resulting-yeas 24, nays 6.
The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR. Proceedings under the call are dispensed with.
Mr. BELLAMY now offered his resolution.
Mr. HOOPER raised the point of order that it is not in order to entertain the resolution, as the call of the Senate, as well as the result itself, shows there is no quorum present.
Shall we without cause-and now I submit it is without cause, for there is no important legislation that will justify as in resorting to this extraordinary measure. What bill is there before the Senate that requires that we should resort to anything of this kind? We have passed the appropriation bills, and the Constitutional Amendment has been legally ratified by this Senate, and that is out of the way. Now why go back upon the uniform practice and precedents of both branches of this Legislature ever since the adoption of the present Constitution and trample under foot all these precedents and usages adopted and recognized in our State all this time simply for the purpose of branching out in a new field and giving our opponents the decided advantage of this question. We are now within the law-within the law and the Constitution. Now I say let us remain there. Let us not go outside of this safe ground. You give the minority the advantage over us the moment you undertake to trample under foot the Constitution and pass laws in violation of its plain provisions. It seems to me every reason appeals to us, and impresses itself upon us with force that we ought not to depart from the usual practice and established precedents in this direction, and if we do we give the minority an advantage over us they can not otherwise have. The principle of safely, as far as the party is concerned, laying aside every other consideration, ought to admonish us to keep clearly within the provisions of the Constitusion. I think to legislate in direct opposition to the plain provisions of the Constitution we enter upon most dangerous ground, and give the opposition a very great advantage over us. I trust the Senate will reflect upon this matter. There is nothing to be gained by it.
Mr. CHURCH. I would ask the Senator if he don't think it about time we should establish some sort of custom that will stop this breaking or attempting to break a quorum.
Mr. HOOPER. I admit there ought to be something done in that direction.
Mr. BELLAMY (interposing). Is not the Senator's time up?
The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR. I did not take notice.
Mr. HOOPER. I only wish to say that the policy set up by this resolution - the attempt to legislate in this way-will amount to nothing. The only way by which this evil can be prevented is to make a proper amendment to the Constitution. Your attempt by proceeding in violation: the Constitution to stop this matter will be like throwing chaff before the wind. I repeat as my last suggestion, and I hope Senators will remember it, that there is nothing to justify or furnish an excuse for this course proposed to be pursued. If there was a measure at stake in which the great interests of the people of the State would be involved, it might be offered as soon plea of justification, but there is not one. We have passed all the important measures as far as the Senate is concerned. Then I say, let us keep on safe ground, within the clear provisions of the Constitution, and go forward in the discharge of our constitutional duties.
Mr. WOLCOTT. Mr. President. The Senator who has just taken his seat, and to whose discussions I listen with great respect, has not done himself justice. He has assumed his own opinions to be correct, and adduced no reasons to show why the views of those who differ with him are incorrect. As to the gravity of this action I differ with him in that respect, He says that this Senate has passed all the important laws; but how does the Senator know what important exigencies may arise before we can amend the Constitution? According to his statement, if we are no longer a legislative body, it will be two years before a measure proposing to amend our State Constitution can be introduced, and it will require two other years in order to have it acted upon by a succeeding Legislature, and two more for the vote of the people, so are liable for six years to come to be constantly interrupted in legislating the most important interests that may arise affecting the welfare of the State. The gravity of the situation demands action - I do not say wrong action-but we should adopt remedies if we have them the emergency so great.
Now we have very respectable authority for this action. The construction which has prevailed in Congress in relation to the organization of both Houses of Congress page: 235[View Page 235] since the foundation of the government. It has ever been held, as was shown in a letter written by the Vice President [Hon. Schuyler Colfax] and printed in the Daily Journal of this city some weeks ago, that the body consists not of fixed numbers, but of the qualified members belonging to the two houses, and that such number was variable according to election, or vacancies created by whatever cause; and as the number varied, by usage, the quorum varied, and majorities varied. While I think that is a precedent entitled to the highest respect, yet it is not absolute authority. The provisions of our Constitution do not materially differ in language from the Constitution of the United States. I read from the Constitution of the United States: "The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each State," etc. That language is construed to mean only that the Senate of the United States is to be composed of so many that is the maximum number. And when vacancies arise, they are to be filled by those entitled to fill them,if they see fit. Nor is the construction of any previous Senatorial body in this State absolute authority for us. We are as competent as any previous Senate to decide this question. I admit that we have the authority against is since the State Constitution went into effect, but there never before has arisen a cause for critical examination of the subject; but if there had been, that does not preclude an adverse decision. How often a statutory provision, having gone before the courts, has been decided one way, and on review has been decided differently? Are not we as competent as any court to construe a constitutional provision affecting the organization of this body? Of course we are. Now, I maintain that when the Constitution of the State of Indiana through a constitutional and legal provision of law says that the Senate shall consist of fifty members, it does not mean arbitrarily fifty, because that same Constitution provides for existing vacancies and consiquently recognizes a varied number in the legislative body as composing that body. As these number varys then according to the language of the Constitution a majority will vary, and a quorum will vary. I submit in the language of this resolution that we are qualified and compentent (being a quorum), to transact business.
Mr. GRAY. I do not intend to make a speech, because this question has been discussed here at length and I do not suppose anything I might say will change the minds of Senators. I look upon this as a grave question. I will go as far as any Senator in the direction of the resolution, except when it comes in conflict with my oath, and that I must be allowed to judge for myself. I must keep this in view that for eighteen years we have required twenty-six votes to pass a bill, and why? Because we consider that the Senate consists of fifty members. And the idea in my mind was that the Constitution required it, because when a bill receives twenty-six votes if every senator was in his seat it could not be defeated, and therefore reflects the will of a majority of the people of the State. I hold that the Constitution acts upon the presumption that the people will elect Representatives, and when it says that the Senate shall consist of fifty members, the presumption of the Constitution is that the people will elect fifty. Now, if a majority of the members present are to constitute a quorum, we must surrender the principle that it takes twenty-six votes to pass a bill, otherwise we might have a quorum to consist of less than twenty six votes, and that would be a quorum unable to do business. I shall consider that the Senate consists of the number of members fixed by law-fifty-and that the Constitution means two-thirds of that number constitutes a quorum to do business. Without going further into the argument, I shall vote against the resolution. I shall vote against it because I know that it is intended to lead to something else-that this Senate is to go on and enact legislation, and I can not consider any act or bill passed with only thirty-two members present, as legal and constitutional.
Mr. STEIN. I shall favor sustaining the decision of the Chair. This is a different question from that presented at the organization of the Senate. I think the people have a right to the opportunity of being represented, and if their agent resigns they are without representation. If a quorum breaks, or if any resignation occurs their constituency have a right to a chance to be represented. I do not think we have authority or precedent to go on and consider ourselves a Legislature. Besides, I do not see any use to enter into any adventure at this late hour, when no good, and probably a great deal of mischief may be done by it.
Mr. BRADLEY. Senators refer to the Constitution without reading it properly. The Consitution does not fix the number of Senators or Representatives. It only fixes a limit. It says the House shall not exceed one hundred members, and the Senate shall not exceed fifty members. It also provides that the number shall be fixed by law. That law, passed in pursuance of the prorision of the Constitution, has as much effect as the Constitution itself. Then the law says the number of Senators shall be fifty. The Constitution provides that two-thirds of each House shall constitute a quorum to do page: 236[View Page 236] business. It also provides that a less number than a quorum may do certain acts. Those acts are specifically set forth. Now what is a House? Some Senators argue that it is the number of Senators present. That is certainly not correct, because the law says what the House is. In the Senate it is fifty. The Constitution says that two-thirds of that number shall constitute a quorum; and by implication, at least, less than two-thirds shall not constitute a quorum. But Senators say another provision of the Constitution provides that a majority of all the members elected shall be requisite to pass a bill. Now they don't consider that according to its letter, because it may happen that only twenty-five will be elected, and no one will contend that a majority of that number can pass a bill. But the Constitution means a majority of all the Senators elected according to law shall be requisite to pass a bill, and the law says fifty shall be the number. Any other construction of the Constitution would lead us to that pointed out by the Senator from Randolph, which is called a reductio ad absurdum, because if there are only twenty-six Senators actually elected then fourteen could pass a bill; hence that is not the meaning of it. It means a majority of all the Senators that may be elected according to law. The Constitution further says that when there are vacancies they shall be filled by special election. Provision is made in the Constitution for filling these vacancies, so that the requisite number may be had to constitute a quorum and to enact a law. Hence I think there is no authority for action by a less number than two-thirds of the whole number, or for enacting a law with less than one-half of the majority of the whole number. Reference has been made to the action of Congress. That was an extreme case, and could be justified on no other ground than emergency, and that can not be taken in connection with the case before the Senate.
The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR. The Chair sustains the point of order, that the resolution cannot be entertained.
Mr. HOOPER and Mr. JOHNSTON of Montgomery, severally made ineffectual motions to adjourn.
Mr. HOOPER was at a loss to know what Object Senators can have in view by remaining here when it is manifest we can do nothing. The President of the Senate has ruled uniformly, and the ruling is undoubtedly correct, that we can do no more business without a quorum such as the Constitution recognizes.A message from the Governor was announced at the door, transmitting the names of members of the Senate who have presented their resignations.
Here a lengthy discussion ensued as to the propriety of receiving any message from the Governor while there is no quorum present; in the meantime, a call the Senate was had, which discovered but 32 members answering to their names.
The message having been read for information-
The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR decided that under the circumstances- it having direct reference to a quorum of the Senate-it is proper to be received.
It is as follows:
Hon. Will. Cumback, President of the Senate:
I have the honor to inform the Senate through you that the following named members of the Senate have on this, the 13th day of May 1869 presented and delivered to me their resignations as members of the Senate of the State of Indiana, to-wit:
- Thomas G. Lee, Senator from the counties of Shelby and Bartholomew.
- Ochmig Bird, Senator from the counties of Allen and Adams.
- Robert Huey, Senator from the counties of Jay, Blackford and Grant.
- J. M. Hanna, Senator from the counties of Clay and Sullivan.
- Charles B. Laselle Senator from the counties of Cass and Falton.
- Elijah Huffman, Senator from the counties of Ohio and Dearborn,John M. Humphreys, Senator from the counties of Green and Owen.
- W. S. Turner, Senator from the counties of Davies and Knox.
- William W. Carson, Senator from the county of Allen.
- Thomas Gifford, Senator from the county of Franklin.
- W. F. Sherrod, Senator from the counties of Orange, Crawford, and Perry.
- William Taggart, Senator from the counties of Brown and Jackson.
- George V. Howk, Senator from the counties of Clark and Floyd.
- William Smith, Senator from the counties of Huntington and Wells.
- W. H. Montgomery, Senator from the counties of Pike, Dubois, and Martin.
You will please present this communication to the Senate.
CONRAD BAKER EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, Indianapolis, May 13,1869.
Mr. CRAVENS now asked the privilege of introducing the resolution offered by the Senator from Switzerland (Mr. Bellamy.)
The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR-Senator from Switzerland offers the following resolution-Mr. Bellamy having corrected it so as to read:
Resolved, That thirty-two Senators having answered to their names, that being two-third of all Senators elected, claiming seats on this floor-a message from the Governor having been read showing that sixteen Senators have resigned their seats-there is a quorum present to do business, and that we proceed accordingly.
Mr. JOHNSTON, of Montgomery. It is not in order to introduce a resolution.
The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR The chair decides that the resolution is not in order.
Mr. CRAVENS, in no spirit of disrespect, took an appeal to the Senate from page: 237[View Page 237] the decision of the chair having supposed what the decision would be from rulings heretofore.
Mr BELLAMY signified his willingness to join in the appeal.
Mr CRAVENS presented the following appeal:
A call of the Senate was ordered, and thirty-two senators having answered to their names, further proceedings were dispensed with. The message of the Governor announcing that sixteen Senators had resigned their seats was read. The Senator from Switzerland offered the following resolution, [here insert]; and the chair ruled it out of order. From that ruling we respectfully appeal to the Senate.
The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR. The question is: shall the decision of the Chair stand as the judgment of the Senate?
Mr. BRADLEY moved to lay the appeal on the table.
The motion was rejected by yeas 8, nays 24-as follows:
YEAS-Messrs. Bradley, Gray, Henderson, Hooper, Jaquess, Johnston of Montgomerv, Morgan and Wood-8.
NAYS-Messrs. Andrew, Armstrong, Beardsley, Bellamy, Case, Caven, Church, Cravens, Eliott, Fisher, Fosdick, Green, Hadley, Hamilton, Hoss, Johnson of Spencer Kinley, Rice, Reynolds, Robinson of Madison, Robinson of Decatur, Scott, Stein, and Wolcott-24.
Pending the roll call-
Mr. GRAY, when his name was called, said he did not want to accomodate the resigning members by divulging the fact that there is no quorum present. He voted to sustain the decision of the Chair "aye."
Mr. WOOD, when his name was called, was understood to say that he was one of those who entertained the opinion that it takes 34 members to constitute a quorum; consequently he voted "aye."
So the motion to lay the appeal on the table was rejected.
Mr. JOHNSTON of Montgomery. There is no quorum voting.
The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR. The Chair decides, as far as this question is concerned, that they have the right to determine whether there is a quorum or not. I leave it with the Senate.
Mr. HOOPER. Mr. President: I do not desire to make any factious opposition to this resolution. It seems to me that we are now about to take a step we will have reason to regret, and I can not consent that toe vote shall be taken without entering my protest against it. Now, I have a clear conviction in my own mind that we can not do any legislative act without a quorum. Nothing that was said in the discussion of this question yesterday evening (in caucus) has changed my mind upon this question. The strong argument made in favor of the n of the fifteenth amendment, was really outside of our State Constitution. a matter the Constitution of the United States regulated; and it was placed more particularly upon that ground. But this question derives no support from that source, because the question of what constitutes a quorum depends entirely upon our State Constitution, and it does seem to me that the matter is so plain there can be no mistake about it. It provides that two-thirds of each House shall constitute a quorum to do business; and the other provisions in the Constitution all go to confirm this. It expressly provides that without a quorum we can do certain things, and can do nothing else. And what are they? Simply that we can meet and adjourn from day to day and send for absent members. If the other provisions left it in doubt at all so it was an open question, it seems to me this direct provision settles it beyond all controversy, and our duty is plain, definite and clear; and the only thing we can do is to adjourn from day to day and send for absent members. Entertaining this opinion in regard to this matter I must vote to sustain the position of the chair.
Mr. ROBINSON, of Madison, thought the Senator had spoken beyond his time.
And then came the recess till 2 o'clock.
Mr. RICE offered a resolution authorizing the Lieut. Governor to draw his warrant in favor of O. M. Wilson for the sum of $100 for the calendar of titles of bills prepared by him at the commencement of the present session.
The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR said the trouble about entertaining the resolution is that the record shows we have no quorum. It has been decided all the morning that we can do no business without a quorum; and we have got a message from the Governor, audit goes upon the journal, showing that we can not have a quorum. The Governor's message informs us that we are left with less than two-thirds of the members of this body, and that fact is on the journal.
The following message was received from the House of Representatives by a Clerk thereof:
-I am directed by the House of Representatives to inform the Senate that the House has concurred in the engrossed amendments of the Senate to House bill No. 311"A bill making specific appropriations for the year one thousand eight hundred and sixty-nine."On motion of Mr. GREENE the Senate took a recess for half an hour.
When the LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR resumed the Chair-
On motion by Mr. WOOD-
The Senate adjourned till 9 o'clock tomorrow morning.

Dealing With Domestic Violence: Does the Heart Heal Battle Wounds?
Every other day you wake up thinking of another excuse to tell your friends and family. How do I distract them this week? Next week it won't be the same. He was just angry. I provoked him, that's all. You go through a mental check list of things to avoid so you won't set off the switch that moves his fist forward, making you his main target. You've become his human punching bag.
At first everything was great. He listened to you. You went out all the time. He made you smile and forget everything. Then, like a twig, he snapped and you find excuse after excuse as to why he is the way he is. Rationalizing YOUR actions, instead of pointing out his own. I love him, you continuously tell yourself. I know he loves me. He hasn't always been like this. He just gets angry sometimes.It starts and goes on for weeks. Weeks turn to months and sometimes years. Until you run out of excuses. There's only so many walls you can run into. So many games you can attend that balls find their way to your face. How clumsy can you be that you're constantly falling down stairs? You'd rather make yourself look weak, than him feel small.I've seen it so many times, heard too many stories to count. Women who react too much with their hearts that they forget to think with their heads, to realize what's really going on around them. For some, it may be generational. They've seen it throughout their lives and think it's the norm; they know nothing else. For others, either love is truly blind or they don't know their self worth to care about anything other than just having someone.But how long can a relationship like this last? How many times can you talk yourself back into a bed with someone who doesn't value you enough to keep you from turning black in blue from the brutal force of their fist?
How do you talk to someone whose heart is so caught up in a situation, that they've lost their head and sense of self? Have many of you ever been in or tried to help someone get out of such a destructive relationship?

Illinois, Indiana to pair for guns summit
CHICAGO (AP) — Hoping to address the flow of guns across state lines, Cook County Sherriff Tom Dart plans to host a guns summit in Indiana later this week, his spokesman told The Associated Press on Sunday.
Law enforcement authorities in both states were invited late last week to "a productive and long overdue discussion on this issue that is critically important to our states and our communities," according to the letter from Dart.
The event will be held Friday at the public safety facility in Gary, Ind., Dart spokesman Frank Bilecki said. Those invited include Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy, Gary Police Chief Wade Ingram and Lake County (Ind.) Sheriff John Buncich.

Rare and lovely are moments in which we learn something new about ourselves. I never expected to learn anything new about me, today. And then I did.
The Stop and Type Books co-hosted Mark Bittman tonight on his tour for The Food Matters Cookbook. I went mostly because he's Bittman and I've been reading his work as long as I've been reading about eating. He would tell me about the catastrophic state of our diet and food system, he would encourage us to eat fewer cows and chickens, he would laud The Stop's fine work (with good reason). I'd return home, self-satisfied - consciously or not – with my mostly plant-based diet as I cooked dinner.
This didn't happen.
Instead, Mark Bittman taught me that I'm a cook.
Cooking is buried so deep within my hungry stomach that I forget it's there. In all the ephemeral bits that make up Maria, cooking is the constant. Do you remember when David Foster Wallace's old fish said to the two young fish swimming along — "Morning, boys. How's the water?"
The cooks at our family restaurant didn't push away a curious little girl. My mom gave me her wooden spoon and her trust to stir the tomato sauce. Now, I imagine dinner as I comb market stalls on Saturday mornings.
And the two young fish swim on for a bit, and then eventually one of them looks over at the other and goes: "What the hell is water?"
I've never felt gratitude that I just cook. It takes a lot for me to remember that cooking every day to feed myself is not the norm. It isn't that most North Americans just don't cook. Many can't cook – never having been taught basic skills to follow a recipe – let alone to see dinner in raw ingredients. Most non-cooks are not lazy or too busy or lacking discipline.
I made sense of this last night, finally, as I listened. "Cooking is easy!" I say. But I'm wrong. To someone who has never turned on a burner, or bought fresh produce, or learned the basics of storing food, or honed proper knife skills – cooking is hard.
I want to remember this. When I cook from heart or create a recipe, each time I suggest an "easy substitution" for an ingredient, as I help a friend cook dinner, and always as I feed others. I want to consciously not assume. I want to remember that it's easy for me, but for me this is water.

text: The Show Catwalk Fashion Shows Autumn/Winter 2012-13 Ready-To-Wear Iceberg 24 February 2012 Jessica Bumpus THE Iceberg girl won't go anywhere without two things in particular this season: her blunt rock 'n' roll fringe and her equally rock 'n' roll shaggy coat. If there's one look she's going for, it's the I'm-with-the-band look – and heck, you never know, she might actually be in the band at this rate too. Founded in 1962 by Silvio and Giuliana Gerani, at the original core of the label is sports and knitwear but it's come a long way since then and ended up in the hands of the founders' son, Paolo Gerani, who has been at its design head since 2000. Adopting a Marianne Faithful approach to dressing, the girls came down the catwalk all mini knitted dresses, coats and dramatic jackets perched upon their shoulders (fast becoming the only way to wear one's coat or jacket next season), and pointed, slightly crazy (but we're going to call them cool), sunglasses leading her way. And her favourite colour this season? Why it has to be blue, cobalt blue.SEE THE ICEBERG SHOW ARCHIVE

Adapted from Washington post.com Flight Crew chat conducted weekly by the Travel staff of The Washington Post:
Q: My wife and I have about a seven-hour stopover in Seattle this June. What do you recommend that we do? We'd like to have an enjoyable meal.
A: Check out Pike Place Market for sure. Go to the Space Needle if you must, but I skipped it with no regrets. Not to be missed, though, is the adjacent Chihuly Garden and Glass, which is spectacular. And you really ought to do the Theo Chocolate tour. There's a lot of great food in Seattle, but two places we enjoyed were Serious Pie and Chan.
Q: My friend and I, both in our 60s, have decided to finally make a dream happen — a week in Paris. We've never traveled internationally before and wonder whether we should seek a hotel/air package, work with a travel agent or do it ourselves.
A: You could conceivably do this on your own, but if it were my first time traveling outside the country, I might go to a travel agent for help in finding the best rates for both flight and hotel. A travel agent can also advise you about which part of the city to stay in and recommend restaurants, tours, etc. Plus, an agent will be on call and can help out during your trip in case anything should go awry.
Q: My local Volvo dealer is pushing the idea of picking up a new car in Sweden. They'll pick up the plane tickets — for two — and one night in a hotel. Is this a good deal?
A: It sounds like an adventure in the making, so if a Volvo is the car you want, I'd consider it. It could be really fun. I was initially a little skeptical about whether it's a good "deal," thinking that the manufacturer must have figured out a way to make this worth its while. It may be figuring it into the price of the car, for instance. But an article by MSN Autos would indicate that this is generally a pretty good deal and that people who've taken these trips seem happy. There are a few cons, though: It can take a couple of months between the time you order the car and pick it up in Europe, and then many weeks before it gets delivered to you in the States.
Q: We're taking my mother-in-law to Fort Myers, Fla., for her 80th birthday over Martin Luther King Jr. Day weekend. She's reasonably active for her age and can walk around, but long hikes are out. We'll be at a nice place with a pool, but I doubt that the weather will be that warm. Do you have suggestions for activities to do or sites to see within a two-hour drive?
A: There's actually quite a bit in Fort Myers: The winter homes of Henry Ford and Thomas Edison are big attractions there and worth a visit. Another historic mansion is the Murphy-Burroughs House, the former home of a cattle rancher. The downtown is a historic district and pretty to walk around in. In nearby Naples, there's the Naples Zoo, plus terrific shopping. Farther afield, you're within two hours of Big Cypress National Preserve and the Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary, with its 2.25-mile boardwalk.
Q: My mom wants us to take a trip together to Montreal and Quebec. I'm trying to figure out what would be easiest and most budget-friendly: fly to Montreal and take the train to Quebec; fly to Vermont and rent a car; fly into Montreal then back from Quebec; something else? She would love to stay at the Fairmont Le Chateau Frontenac in Quebec if we could find a deal.
A: Look into flying to Burlington, Vt., and renting a car. The drive is lovely, with lots of cute places to stop between Burlington and Montreal and lots to see on the drive to Quebec. On the Chateau Frontenac, you're in luck; they're running a 120th-anniversary deal. Rooms start at 189.30 CAD (about $192) through June, in honor of the hotel's 1893 inauguration.
Q: In the spring, my family is traveling to Costa Rica. I know that we shouldn't leave our passports and wallets in our hotel rooms, but carrying them with us may be impossible given the ziplining, swimming, surfing, etc., we'll be doing. Should we just leave the documents in the hotel safes?
A: Yes, the safe is the, er, safest place for your valuables. If you don't have an in-room safe, the front desk should provide one for your belongings. Keep on hand, though, a bit of cash and some identification. Also, jot down all emergency numbers for your credit cards (so you can cancel them should they be stolen) and make a copy of your passports.
Q: We're hoping to visit Yellowstone and Mount Rushmore. We don't mind flying into a major city that's a day's drive away. Which one has the best airfares and rental car prices?
A: I would fly into Salt Lake City. It's a 6½-hour drive, but it takes you through some of the most beautiful country on Earth. We were there last year and can't wait to go back.
Q: We're researching travel to Germany this summer for our family of four. How do we find special deals?
A: Flights to Europe have become expensive again, and that's not likely to change anytime soon. Try using an aggregator like Kayak, which lists the fares of multiple airlines, from cheapest to more expensive. Also sign up for some fare alerts from various airlines — Lufthansa, American, Icelandair — and maybe you'll hit pay dirt.
Q: It seems that it's cheapest to fly to Europe from JFK this summer. Are there reasonable drive-park-fly options near JFK?
A: There are lots of park/fly options near JFK. Another option is park/sleep/fly, which can be even cheaper and more convenient if you have an early flight. You stay at a hotel for a night, and parking is included in the rate — even if you leave your car for, say, a week — and much more affordable.
Q: What's your opinion of the promo cards that European cities market via their tourist boards? They offer free public transport and discounts to museums, restaurants, etc. Are they a good value?
A: This question will have a different answer for every person and every destination. Compare the prices on the card versus what you'd pay for each attraction. Are there things you really don't care about seeing? Then it might not be worth it. I'm a little more inclined toward free public transport options. When you're abroad and fumbling with foreign currency, that's a big plus.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Exceptional drought conditions and the danger of wildfires linger across Oklahoma as summer comes to an end.
Associate state Climatologist Gary McManus (mac-MAN'-us) said Friday that long-term rainfall is needed statewide to replenish lakes and soil moisture.
The U.S. Drought Monitor report released Thursday shows 42 percent of Oklahoma in exceptional drought - the worst rating - and 53 percent in extreme drought - the second worst. The monitor's forecast is for drought conditions to persist through mid-December.
Oklahoma Forestry Services spokeswoman Michelle Finch-Walker says those conditions make for an ongoing fire danger - even though recent rains have turned plants and grasses green. She says the overall condition of the foliage remains very dry and susceptible to fire.
The official start of fall is at 9:49 a.m. Saturday.

Spending long hours in the car this summer? You can make getting to where you're going as much fun as when you finally get there!
Play these games to make the time pass quickly. When everyone in the car plays with you, it's hilarious and exciting!
Print these ideas and try them the next time you are traveling:
The Alphabet Game
Everyone in the car looks for letters of the alphabet on billboards and signs. The game begins with the letter A and continues through the alphabet.
The word must start with the letter (except Q and X, which are OK anywhere). For example, if you find the letter "A" in the word "area" on a sign, you say the letter and the word: "A—Area."
Don't get discouraged if someone gets a few letters ahead of you. When they get to Q, you'll catch up quickly!
Does it grunt?
The Animal Game
One person thinks of an animal. The others take turns asking questions to figure out what it is.Answers can only be yes or no. If the answer is yes, that person gets to ask another question. If the answer is no, then the next person gets to ask a question.
The person who correctly guesses the animal gets to think up the next one.
You can also change the game slightly to things found in your school, in your house, or wherever you are.
Similar to The Animal Game is Spy...
