Westminster College Offers 150 $74,000 Young Presbyterian Scholarships
In 2002, as Westminster College celebrated its 150th Anniversary, the Board of Trustees took a serious look at the question of what it means to be a PC(USA) related college. As a result, the decision was made to offer up to 150 scholarships, worth $17,500 annually, to outstanding PC(USA) students and offer them a way to continue to grow in faith and leadership while on our campus.
"We determined that Westminster College can best serve, in the words of our Presbyterian founders, by providing for the mental and moral education of young men and women who are stand-out church members in the eyes of their pastors," according to former Westminster College President R. Thomas Williamson, whose father was a Presbyterian pastor.
The scholarships are given to all PC(USA) congregations, in essence, to award a student of their choosing who meets the qualifications.
Selection criteria for the Young Presbyterian Scholarship is based on the student's grade point average of 3.5 or higher, and recommendation by their pastor. One scholarship recipient is permitted from a congregation each year. Pastors must send a letter of recommendation to Westminster by Oct. 31, and prospective students must apply to Westminster by Nov. 15.
Williamson added, "This program offers churches an opportunity to make a significant difference in the lives of young people by nominating a member of their congregation to receive a four-year $68,000 scholarship."
Westminster College is enjoying a record amount of interest from prospective students. Westminster has set records for applications for four straight years, and limits its incoming classes to approximately 350 students from an inquiry pool of nearly 20,000.
For more information, contact David Rhodes, dean of admissions, at 1-800-942-8033, or Carey Anne Meyer LaSor, coordinator of the Young Presbyterian Scholarship Program, at 724-946-7365. For information about Westminster College, visit http://www.westminster.edu/
For religion students and others who are pursuing a career in the ordained ministry, christian education, or other church vocations.
The following list of scholarships and other awards, including the description of the criteria for awarding each, is taken from the 2001 edition of Westminster Undergraduate Catalog, pp. 44-60. Important criteria and restrictions (eg. class standing, QPA, major, vocational plans) are highlighted in bold type. Where Class standing is mentioned, we should interpret this as referring to the class during the academic year in which the award will be received (which will normally be the year following the one in which the names are submitted). Any exception to this will be duly noted.

In today's mobile market where over 25 phones are being launched on a monthly basis it has become very difficult for the consumers to make a choice between different models. The latest buzz is the Google's own Android which kicked off in the fourth quarter of 2008 with its Cupcake (1.5) has moved to Honeycomb (3.2) awaiting its new version in the fourth quarter of 2011, Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0). Android has taken over the mobile market with over 2,50,000 downloadable applications out of which 70% of the applications are free.
Autem, Nokia is trying to retain its market value with its ancient old-Symbian operating system. Despite of being an open source market, people have lost interest in Symbian majorly due to its high pricing, old interface, processor speed and user friendly issues. Nokia is not the only brand using symbian, other mobile giants like Motorola and Sony Ericsson have also launched their symbian phones but none of them emerged to be successful. Symbian 60 v1.00 was launched in the first quarter of 2007. Since 2007, symbian has only launched 4 versions. Currently Symbian^3 can be seen in a few Nokia phones like N8, C7, C6-01 with the latest being Symbian Anna which can be seen in the touch and qwerty input Nokia E6. Nokia is trying its level best to compete with google and has been facing loses over 212 million pounds.
In this highly competitive and growing market of mobile industry, people want to invest money in the latest device with a fast processor at the best price available. Nokia has been facing loses over the past two years because of a major drop in sales due to its high pricing, thanks to Symbian. But thankfully Nokia has realized it lately and here we have a brand new version, ANNA. It is equipped with an enhanced browser experience with a much awaited, landscape qwerty input. The browser offers a faster performance and is expected to be very user friendly. But there's a big difference between marketing and reality. Google Android offers the latter.
For all the buzz that Android gets from developers, its success owes more to handset manufacturers than to open-source developers. The list of manufacturers include giants HTC, Samsung, Motorola, Micromax, Dell, etc. The Android platform has much more to offer at a very affordable price. Low budget android phones like Samsung Galaxy series and Motorola Charm are offering tough competition to the high end phones of Nokia like C7 and N8. These android phones offer a very high processing speed (800 MHz) at half the price of what a symbian^3 offers. The approximate price of a Nokia C7 is 17000 INR whereas a Samsung Galaxy pop costs only 8000 INR, making it a budget phone. High end Android phones like HTC Desire, Nulla Ericsson Xperia Play, LG Optimus 2X and the Samsung Galaxy S2 offer high definition graphics with inbuilt GPU offer a very rich gaming experience to its users. Android has raised the hopes of all mobile fanatics with its innumerable apps which has brought internet to the fingertips of the consumers.
So people, if you are planning to buy a new phone check out the features including camera, touch interface, processor speed of the various android phones available in the market but then if you are a Symbian fan, go for Anna.

The Aliens Take Over Boone Trail Elementary School Did the aliens take over Boone Trail Elementary School? Well on January 26th 2012 Boone Trail Elementary School had a 3-5 Literacy Night to remind kids that reading is out of this world. This was from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. in the Boone Trail Gymnasium. The theme for the 3-5 Literacy Night was space. Lots of people came and they had lots of fun! They had activities for the kids to do. Like making there own unique constellations. Two people from the North Carolina Museum of Life and Science came and showed the kids many constellations like the big dipper. They brought a blow up dome that the kids could go into to look at the stars. For snacks the kids could have Capri-suns and Moon Pies! They raffled off door prizes for the kids. A bunch of them were space books. We all hope that this event helped kids remember that reading is out of this world. |

Alpha & Omega Ministries Apologetics Blog
Calling the MSM---Anyone Home?
09/26/2012 - James White
Dan Wallace just posted this:News flash: Harvard Theological Review has decided not to publish Karen King¹s paper on the Coptic papyrus fragment on the grounds that the fragment is probably a fake. This from an email Dr. Craig Evans, the Payzant Distinguished Professor of New Testament at Acadia University and Divinity College, sent to me earlier today. He said that Helmut Koester (Harvard University), Bentley Layton (Yale University), Stephen Emmel (University of Münster), and Gesine Robinson (Claremont Graduate School)all first-rate scholars in Coptic studieshave weighed in and have found the fragment wanting. No doubt Francis Watsons comprehensive work showing the fragments dependence on the Gospel of Thomas was a contributing factor for this judgment, as well as the rather odd look of the Coptic that already raised several questions as to its authenticity.Now, that doesn't mean the saga is over for two reasons: 1) the fragment could be rehabilitated by the release of further relevant information concerning its provenance, and 2) the MSM is far more interested in posting stuff that is against Christianity than corrections and retractions.

Letter | Stormwater runoff needs more attention
December 17, 2012 · 9:35 AM
Mercer Island is a small city and because of its restriction to the island, it will never be a large city. However, in the 12 years that I have lived here, there have been huge changes to the physical structure of the downtown, with highrise buildings replacing one- and two-story structures. The watercourse that runs through downtown is the most polluted on the Island. Yet, I do not see any plan to mitigate stormwater runoff from downtown.
It is much easier to plan for and implement stormwater flow reduction before buildings are built rather than try to retrofit years later. In European cities and in American cities, green solutions to stormwater runoff and pollution are much cheaper to build than alternative gray structures.
With much downtown construction yet to come, Mercer Island should require green stormwater solutions for all new buildings in the downtown area and any place large buildings are constructed on the Island, including our schools.
Urban forests help reduce stormwater runoff, yet our tree ordinances only apply to trees in critical areas. Large trees provide more ecological services (per Seattle Times http://seattletimes.com/html/localnews/2019878659_oldtrees11m.html) than small trees, yet we allow them to be cut down by homeowners without restriction, except in critical areas.
I want to see Mercer Island better plan for our urban forest and stormwater runoff. There is a good article on case studies of how other cities, albeit much larger, are planning for urban forests and managing stormwater at: www.americanforests.org/our-programs/urbanforests.

Traffic is expected to be disrupted in Marpole Friday morning when the Musqueam Indian Band leads a protest march related to an ongoing land dispute.
The band plans to march from the Safeway parking lot at 70th and Granville and walk south to a piece of private property on Southwest Marine Drive, near the Arthur Laing Bridge.
That is the property where intact remains of two adults and two infants believed to be ancestors of the Musqueam were discovered earlier this year during preparation of the site for a 108-unit condominium project. The band wants the remains covered up and the property turned into an interpretive public park.
Friday marks the 100th day of the band's protest outside the property owned by Gary and Fran Hackett, who are working with Century Group HQ Developments Ltd. to develop the site.
"I would apologize to motorists for the inconvenience but I would ask them to blame the provincial government," said Cecilia Point, organizer of the protest, which begins at 9:30 a.m.
The concern the Musqueam have with the provincial government is over its refusal to rescind two permits issued to the developer last year to proceed with the project.
In June, the province amended one of the permits to order the developer to stop work in a small section of the property where the remains were found.
The government, however, continues to extend both permits in two-week increments while the developer and Musqueam continue to negotiate a settlement on the land.
The Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations told the Courier in an email the "permits are only being extended in two-week increments because of the ongoing negotiations between the property owner and the Musqueam on purchase price."
If a deal is not reached, Point said, the band is worried the developer will go ahead with the condominium project. The protest will continue until a deal is reached, Point added.
Bob Ransford, a spokesman for the property owners and developer, said his clients have outlined their costs to the Musqueam and calculated what they believe is a reasonable settlement.
Ransford said they are focused on selling the land and awaiting a financial offer from the band, which was promised to them this week.
"We haven't heard anything," he said Wednesday. "I'm surprised they are planning an action [Friday] because I don't know how that relates to what they told us."
The band held a similar protest march in May followed by demonstrations outside the Mountain View cemetery and a blockade of the Arthur Laing Bridge for almost three hours.
"The community may decide to block the bridge but that's not our intent for now," added Point, noting the Vancouver Police Department was notified.

IT'S BACK. For the third year running, Big Sky's early season pass sale is discounting Adult Unlimited Gold Passes by 40%. And Juniors ages 11-17 can save up to 60% when their 2012/13 pass is bought in conjunction with an Adult Gold Pass. Prices include a $799 Adult Gold Pass, a $599 College Gold Pass, and a $299 Junior Gold Pass. At the Biggest Skiing in America, that's a screamin' deal. Broken down, adults pay about 20 cents per skiable acre (there are 3,832 at Big Sky alone), around $5 per day if you ski every day of the season, and the break-even point for buying a pass is just 10 ski days. For Juniors, the breakdown is even better. The sale only goes through April 30th, but buying now gets you free skiing for the last two weeks of April 2012 as well. That includes skiing during spring events like the annual Pond Skim on April 14th.

DeKalb CEO Burrell Ellis said an idea to change the current balance of power in the county government is "silly."
The issue is "really silly when [we've] got issues like jobs creation, and transportation improvements, and getting people back in their homes," said Ellis, in his third year as DeKalb's CEO.
"We have much more pressing issues," Ellis said. "The real issues that we've got to resolve are issues regarding how we can get our citizens back to work, helping them protect their homes and to continue to deliver the services to them."
The county's Board of Commissioners is considering a resolution that would ask the legislature to create a charter commission to re-examine the county's CEO-commission form of government.
The "delineation of powers between the executive and legislative branches of DeKalb County government has been an ongoing source of conflict that has impeded the efficiency and effectiveness of the county government," the resolution states.
Commissioner Lee May said DeKalb's government is not a balanced form.
"It's a heavy, heavy CEO form of government," May said. "If the CEO wants to do something that is completely against what the [commissioners] wants to do, he can.
"We've seen so many instances where the CEO—and not just this CEO, but previous CEOs—have completely gone against the will and desires and legislations of the board and done what they wanted to do.
May said an example is the recent process for choosing projects for a proposed one-cent, regional sales tax.
"A super-majority of commissioners signed a letter asking for the CEO to take all of our transit dollars, split it in half and subdivide them between Clifton corridor and I-20 [proposed projects]," May said. But Ellis did not present that idea to the transportation roundtable that determined the funding allocation for the projects.
Among the options for changing the form of government are continuing to tweak the CEO-commission form of government and setting up a commission-county manager government similar to those in the rest of the counties in Georgia, May said.
"It's not about getting more power," May said. "It's about having a more balanced approach to government. It's about removing some of the politics."
Commissioner Kathie Gannon, who said she believes the county has good checks and balances, said the form-of-government issue "distracts us from our job."
"It's difficult to get our work done," said Gannon, adding that several of her fellow commissioners have been posturing for a change in the form of government for the past three years. "It seems like it is something that needs to be looked at because the commissioners that want to be in charge keep bringing [up the issue].
"I think we have entirely enough power," she said about the commissioners.
Gannon said she is concerned about putting a Republican-controlled state legislature in charge of the task of studying the county's form of government.
"This is not the time to do it," Gannon said. "We've got a Republican legislature and the [county] delegation is in turmoil."
Ellis said the form-of-government issue is not a legitimate, resident-driven idea.
"This is not an issue that the citizens of DeKalb County have cared about," Ellis said.
"You haven't heard [people say], 'We don't like our form of government. We don't like having a CEO that gets invited to the White House and gets invited to shape national policy with the president and vice president of the United States.'"
Instead, Ellis said the resolution, which he did not see until it appeared on the board's Oct. 11 agenda, is "a waste of time by certain commissioners."
"This is an issue that, about every six months or so, certain members of the commission raise just so they can have access to more power," said Ellis, who served for eight years on the Board of Commissioners, including five as the board's presiding officer.
Ellis said DeKalb County's form of government makes it a progressive county.
"Those large, urban counties that are known to be progressive, forward-thinking, successful, efficient, bringing jobs and opportunity to their people….have a county executive form of government," Ellis said.

The brims are made of plastic rescued from the packaging for a dress shirt. Other possible sources are plastic spiral notebook covers (not the cardboard ones, though) or blister packaging if the product is big enough to have about 6" x 4" of flat (or gently curved) plastic. The smaller brim would probably fit on a plastic milk or juice jug.
The orange one has a zipper on the crown under which you can put any kind of Sekrit Surprize. The zipper was part of the neckline of the original shirt, which I cut to fit. I also like to put pockets on the crown, as I did with the brown one.
This tutorial shows the construction of the brown hat as I'd already made the orange one. However, the technique is almost exactly the same for both, just the pieces are slightly different sizes.

You can of course also use yardage. You need about 2 or 3 square feet for either hat, which is usually not more than 3/8 of a yard. One shirt would be plenty, I used two only because I wanted a contrast.
I suggest using a lining so you don't get bits of thread in your hair whenever you wear your hat. If you have enough, and it's not super heavy, you can probably use your main fabric. An old t-shirt works well too.
I mentioned the plastic for the brim in the intro. You need some of that.
Finally, you need about 4 or 5 feet of quilt binding, which is like very wide seam binding, an inch wide. It's available in packages of 3 yards in any fabric store. You can substitute another piece of fabric the same dimensions as the band, but I find quilt binding is easier and faster.
Finally finally, you need thread and a sewing machine. No special stitches are required, any old sewing machine will do.
I wish I could sew but many of my gender is missing that gene.
Good instructable.
Shouldn't the carpenter's rule be stated "measure twice and cut once"?
I made me one from some awesome fabric I just *had* to have when I saw it in the store. I think I'm going to redo my chuckies in the same stuff. lining is small yellow checks
I also made one for my brother and one for my daughter.
the green one was heavy woven stuff that was a bit hard to work with, the blue a shirt my daughter couldn't wear because ithe fabric was uncomfortable on her skin, ok as a hat though! That fabric forced me to use interfacing for the first time, as it was a bit light and floppy for a hat on it's own.

Joseph M. Cychosz @ on
Chnge "no comment" on review
See discussion from one of our contributors:
Hi, Joe.
Question. When I went to my nanoHUB page, I found one review/comment. I
clicked it on, and the review was from you: "No comment." Is there a chance
that could be removed?
Email sent to Jim explaining that this was a rating only without comment.
I see, Joe. I knew there was a valid reason for it, but to go to a "review"
and find "No comment" was a bit on the negative side?
Best, Jim
I suggest we perhaps change "no comment" to "rating supplied without comment".

A former restaurant manager elected to become Warren police chief, despite having no law enforcement experience, began his new job this weekend.
New Police Chief John Semertgakis graduated from the police academy last Friday. On Saturday, he was sworn in. And by Saturday evening, he was already on patrol.
It's a police department of one, and the former restaurant manager said despite it being a bit overwhelming, he is ready to go.
"I am chief. I am patrolman. I am dog officer and all," said Semertgakis.
Semertgakis said as a kid, he never dreamed he'd grow up to be a police officer.
And after living in Boston and then Manchester, moving to the small town of 900 was a change for him. But, after living in Warren for the past seven years, Semertgakis said he is truly home.
"I didn't take this job to do it for a year. I plan on doing this for a long time," said Semertgakis.
The police chief job in Warren opened up after the former chief lost his job and people started looking for a replacement.
"(I) didn't think about it seriously until the position became open," said Semertgakis.
Semertgakis was elected in March, but in title only. He had to complete the police academy before he could take on all the responsibilities as chief.

Health Information
Type 2 Diabetes in Children
Healthy meals, physical activity, and weight control can help prevent diabetes or can prevent or delay complications if your child has diabetes. A registered dietitian can help you build a healthy meal plan for your child. Your doctor, exercise specialist, or certified diabetes educator also can help your child find ways to become more physically active.
Weight loss is appropriate Reference if your child is overweight and he or she has reached adult height. In some severe cases, weight loss before your child reaches his or her full adult height may be needed. See the Reference Interactive Tool: What Is Your Child's BMI? Reference
Having a blood sugar level that is higher than normal but not yet at the level of diabetes (Reference prediabetes Opens New Window) increases a child's risk for type 2 diabetes. If your child has prediabetes, eating a healthy diet and increasing physical exercise may make his or her blood sugar return to a normal range and possibly prevent type 2 diabetes. Your child will still need to see a doctor regularly to check for signs of the disease.

Home · Departments · Finance · MSF · Admissions · The Admissions Process
Only applications that are completed by each deadline will be considered for admission. Applications missing supporting documentation will not be reviewed until the next admissions deadline.
Complete the online application at ApplyTexas. Be sure, when you get to the screen requiring you to choose a semester, that you choose "Summer 2013". The application includes information required by the University of Texas as well as specific information required for MSF applicants. When your application is complete, you will be given the option to submit your application and essays either together or separately.
Pay your application fee. The application fee is $65 for U.S. citizens/permanent residents and $90 for international applicants. Payment of the application processing fee may be submitted electronically via MasterCard or Visa if submitted on the ApplyTexas site. If you do not pay your application fee on the ApplyTexas site, you will receive an email message after submitting your online application which will include instructions for making payment to The University of Texas at Austin directly. Payment options will include Discover, MasterCard, electronic check, or electronic funds transfer. Please note that The University of Texas at Austin does not accept Visa. If you wish to pay by Visa, you should pay your application fee on the ApplyTexas site. We highly encourage you to pay your application fee online. If you choose to pay your application fee by money order (in U.S. dollars), please mail your money order to the Graduate and International Admissions Center. Please note that applicants who have previously attended The University of Texas at Austin will also be assessed a $10 transcript fee through What I Owe.
Statement of Purpose Essay and Optional Essays. You may do this at the time of your initial application. If you choose to do so, we suggest you write and edit your essay responses in a plain text editor such as Microsoft Notepad, and then copy and paste the text into the essay text box. Your statement of purpose essay must be no longer than 120 eighty-character lines of text (including spaces and blank lines). The optional essays should be limited to 200 words.
If you opt to submit your application and essay separately, you will need to log back into your ApplyTexas account and select the "My Essays" tab to submit your essay. You will receive e-mail instructions for doing this once you have paid your application fee.
You may view the Statement of Purpose essay, as well as the two optional essays at the MSF Application Essays page.
Three letters of recommendation. When you complete the "Employment, References, and Honors" page of the online application for admission, you will be asked to provide the names and email addresses of your recommenders. Be sure that their email addresses are current and accurate. In addition, on the "Custom University & Major Specific Questions" page, you will be asked to decide whether or not you will waive the right to view your letters after they are submitted. After your application for admission is submitted and received at The University of Texas at Austin, and your application fee is paid, the Graduate and International Admissions Center (GIAC) will send email messages to your recommenders and ask them to visit a website where they can complete an online questionnaire and upload the recommendation letter. Please note that your recommender will be informed whether or not you have waived your right to view his/her letter of recommendation. After you have submitted your online application for admission, you can log into the application status check to monitor the status of your pending requests for references, resend the Request for Reference email to your recommenders, or add a new recommender.
If you are unable to provide an email address for a recommender, you may have the recommender return the recommendation form and attached letter to you in sealed envelopes with their signatures across the seal, and you can include the letters in a mailed packet to GIAC. Please note that submitting a hard copy instead of an online recommendation can significantly delay the processing of your application, so it is highly recommended that your recommenders submit an online recommendation.
Once your application is submitted and your fee paid, you will receive an email from the Graduate and Admissions Center with directions for uploading your supporting documents. Emails will also be sent to your recommenders with directions for submitting their letters online.
Once your application is submitted and your fee paid, you will receive an email from the Graduate and Admissions Center with directions for uploading your supporting documents.
Transcripts: Submit a copy of an official transcript for each college or university attended. After you have submitted your online application and paid your application fee, you will be able to log in to the documents upload page to upload a copy of your official transcript(s) in the form of a .pdf file. TIPS: Most colleges and universities will not supply an official transcript in a .pdf version. You will need to obtain an official transcript and scan the hard copy into a .pdf document. You will be able to upload only one .pdf document per school. International transcripts written in a language other than English must be submitted in their original language together with a complete and official English translation. You should redact (mark out) the Social Security Number (SSN) anywhere it appears on your transcript before creating the .pdf and uploading it. The GIAC website provides additional information about transcripts and detailed instructions for uploading the .pdf of your transcript(s). Applicants who attended The University of Texas at Austin will not be required to upload a copy of a UT-Austin transcript but rather will be assessed a $10 transcript fee through What I Owe.
Standardized Test Scores: Send official GRE or GMAT scores, as well as TOEFL or IELTS scores if required. The UT Austin code for submission of GRE scores is 6882. The GMAT code is 396-44-45. International applicants must submit official test scores for the Internet-based version of the TOEFL or IELTS unless they are from an English-only speaking country or have earned a four-year bachelor's degree in an English speaking country. Please contact GIAC if you have questions about waivers.
Please note that it can take several weeks for scores to arrive at UT and become an official part of your application. If your official scores have not arrived before the application deadline, your application will not be reviewed. Even if a testing agency reports that a score has been sent to the University, it may take some time to show up in your application file, so be sure to leave plenty of time for scores to arrive.
Resume: After you have submitted your online application and paid your application fee, you will be able to log in to the documents upload page to upload your resume in the form of a .pdf file. Please keep your resume length to a maximum of two pages.
Departmental Application (Applicant Snapshot): Submit your Applicant Snapshot using the same process as the resume submittal. Choose "Department Application" on the dropdown menu to upload it to the correct place. You may download a copy of the profile here. A note to those of you using a Mac: you must use Adobe Reader to read and complete the file, or your data may be corrupted when you re-upload it to applytexas.org.
Your applicant profile has a place for you to submit self-reported GMAT or GRE scores. Please wait until after you have completed these exams to submit this document.
Monitor your status: You can monitor the status of your application using the "My Status" page. If this page indicates any items are outstanding, your application will not be processed. Remember that the MSF Admissions Office is unable to assist with delays in score reports and letters of recommendataion and you must leave ample time before the deadlines for your scores to be reported and letters to be received.
Admissions Interview: Interviews are granted on an invitation-only basis, when the committee feels it needs additional information about an applicant. If the committee wishes to interview you, a member of our staff will contact you to set up the interview.
Admissions Decisions: Once a decision has been made, you will receive an email from GIAC requesting that you check your admissions status. Admitted candidates will also receive an email from the program office with additional information.
Merit-based fee assistance: Decisions regarding financial offers will be made shortly after admissions decisions. If you are given an award you will receive a separate email outlining the details of that award. Students who receive fee assistance have until April 15 to accept or decline our offer.
Offer acceptance: When you are admitted, you will receive an offer letter. Please sign and return this letter to our office as soon as you reach a decision.
Deposit: A $2000 deposit is required within 2 weeks of accepting an offer of admission. When you accept our offer, you will receive an invoice outlining the deposit due date as well as the tuition and fee payments required for the remainder of the year.
Official Transcripts: If you are offered admission, you will be required to submit official transcripts before you can enroll in classes. Information about the procedures for submitting transcripts can be found here.
Vaccine requirements: Students new to UT will be required to submit some medical documents. Specific requirements can be found at the UHS Incoming Students page.

Folcroft mayor fails in attempt to veto passage of 2013 budget
FOLCROFT — An attempt by Mayor Bob Frey to veto the borough's 2013 budget and its accompanying ordinances was thwarted when Solicitor Raymond Santarelli said Frey did not properly comply with borough code and take action within the required 10 days.
Frey said the budget was adopted on Dec. 18 and on Dec. 28 he signed a letter of veto and attempted to deliver it to borough hall, only to find that the municipal offices were closed.
He said borough code states that the paperwork was to be sent to him by certified mail or handed to him personally with an explanation.
Council President Susan Ropski said Frey was handed a manila envelope with the budget and ordinances inside on Dec. 18, to which Frey acknowledged, adding that he was not told what was in the envelope.
Frey said he also called Ropski on Dec. 31 to inform her of his plan to veto.
The 2013 budget was adopted Dec. 18 by a 4-3 vote. The three Republican council members said they voted against the budget because of a $400,464 bill that is due to be paid to the county for replacement of the sewer system under the recently replaced Grant Avenue Bridge.
The $400,464 bill was not included in 2013 budget projections.
On Feb. 15, 2011, when current Republican Councilwoman Marianne French was president, the borough entered into an agreement to reimburse the county $122,646 for the replacement of the sewer system under the bridge. After the approval of the 2013 preliminary budget on Dec. 4, French noticed there was no line item indicating the repayment of the funds, which are due the county in 2013.
French said she contacted county Public Works Director Dennis Carey, who told her the borough now owed a total of $400,464, due to various work order changes.
French, during the Dec. 18 council meeting, read a letter written to the county by Wilson on Aug. 30, stating borough council and other officials were apprised of the situation. Continued...
Members of council, the financial director and engineer said they were not aware of the letter sent by Wilson and not one council member admitted to having been consulted, even though Wilson publicly stated that he had discussed the matter with "some council members."
Cindi Frey, wife of the mayor, questioned council about who knew of the situation and did not receive a response.
Frey, on Tuesday night, again questioned council, asking for a show of hands to indicate how many council members were not aware of the letter sent by Wilson. Frey's persistence sparked the ire of Ropski and the two women engaged in a heated exchange. Frey said as a taxpayer she and the other residents deserved a response.
Leaving Frey and residents in attendance stunned, Ropski said she was not addressing the matter, abruptly adjourned the meeting and exited the council room.
Following the meeting Mayor Frey said he was not sure what his next move will be in reference to the veto situation.
"I know one thing," he said, "I don't feel comfortable with this budget."
Councilman Jason McGuigan said it was not the intention of the mayor or Republican council members to be difficult, but they were very concerned about how the borough will pay the bill to the county.
"It is our responsibility to put together an honest budget that will reflect what bills we have to pay," said McGuigan. "We can go back and forth on technicalities about when this $400,000 bill is coming and all we want is to be shown how we are going to pay for it. We were told by Cliff Wilson that we were going to go to war with the county, and that's not going to happen. We were told to pay for it with liquid fuel money, which can't be done."
Ropski, earlier in the meeting, said council will address the $400,000 bill, but first invoices and work orders must be examined.
"In my mind this is not a bill that we owe right now," said Ropski. "I need to know how the county came to that figure."

GM moving Chevrolet Impala to Detroit plant
The redesigned Chevrolet Impala will join the Volt and Malibu on the assembly line at the General Motors' plant in Detroit.
General Motors said Wednesday that it will build the next-generation Chevrolet Impala at its Detroit-Hamtramck assembly plant, adding 2,500 jobs.
The current Impala is built at GM's plant in Oshawa, Ontario. The next version is expected to go into production in 2013 or 2014.
GM said it will add two shifts at Detroit-Hamtramck for the Impala and the previously announced plan to build the Chevy Malibu. The tooling and equipment for the Impala will require another $69 million in investments.
In April 2010, GM said it would invest $121 million in the plant to support Malibu production.
The Detroit-Hamtramck factory also makes the Chevrolet Volt. GM said last week that it plans to ramp up Volt production to 60,000 next year, from an earlier plan to produce 30,000.
"We're doing this because we're confident in consumer demand for the great vehicles we're going to be building here," GM North America President Mark Reuss told workers at the plant.
Wednesday's announcement is part of a GM plan, spelled out two weeks ago, to invest $2 billion in 17 plants in eight states. Among the plants getting additional investment: Bowling Green, Ky., home of the Chevrolet Corvette; and powertrain plants in Toledo, Ohio, as well as Flint and Bay City, Mich. About 4,000 jobs are being created or retained at those plants, GM has said.
"Given the competitive nature of the auto industry in the United States, the bar for success is placed very high," Joe Ashton, UAW vice president of the GM department, said in a statement. "The members of UAW Local 22 soar over the bar every day by demonstrating their flexibility, hard work, and their intense focus on the customer."

Hello Everyone,
I am a stickler for matching colors to certain projects. I want to crochet a afghan with the Baltimore Ravens in mind. The black, gold and white is no problem, but the purple is the thing that is driving me nuts. Would anyone know what the name of that particular purple is? Would anyone know of a yarn site that would carry it? A few years ago there was a site where a lady had gone and matched all the NFL team colors, but either I didn't save it or the site doesn't exist anymore. Would anyone know the site that I am referring to?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Lagavulin for me
The single malt whiskies from Lagavulin are amongt the world's smokiest with thick lapsang souchon enveloping the palate without remorse. One of the trio of Ìleach distilleries gracing the isles South-Easterly shore, each sharing a characteristic peat smoke as well as being Scotlands most pungent and perhaps most revered. In 1816, the Lagavulin whisky distillery was founded by John Johnston.
Surrounded by dark peat bog and drawing its water from the Solan Lochs, Lagavulin sits at the head of a bay and not far from the ruins of Dunyvaig castle. The best-selling Islay single malt scotch until 1998, when it was overtaken by the neighbouring Laphroaig, Lagavulin is currently experiencing problems in meeting whisky demands. The recent difficulties stem from a few decades when working conditions were decidedly lax; a two day working week led to very low production and it was not until 1981 that a five day week was finally instated.
Lagavulin holds claim to Scotlands slowest distillation with five hours for the first distillation and a further nine for the second. Despite the pungency of the single malt, there is a certain smoothness to the palate which many attribute to the leisurely rate of distillation. The heart of the Lagavulin range receives global acclaim and there have been almost no independent bottlings. Currently as much as 98% of the spirit is earmarked for maturation as a single malt and Diageo have included Lagavulin in their Classic Malts range.
I was introduced to Lagavulin at a wake in Dunkeld (which is a lovely place), it remains one of my firm favourites, both for taste and sentimental reasons

Well I am lucky enough to live in an area containing Booths stores so at the moment there is a lot of single malts on offer at £5-10 off. I have a highland park for less than £20 but could have gone for a laphroag 10yro or... Well I can't remember them all but even some of the more priceyones they sell are now less than £30!. Anyway I got the highland park on MOndya (god i hope its was monday because if it was tuesday half a bottle gone is rather too much considering its price. Think I'll get a grouse for those nights I want a drink drink and not those where I want to savour the flavour. Perhaps that way it works out cheaper. Jura is cheap and a fw islay ones too. Bad memory or I'd let you know what is on offer. Or perhaps the memory was lubricated away by something.
Not a big malt drinker and have a cold at the moment so perhaps that is why I drank a bit too much of it. That and the fact I measure the amount by the heigh up the glass and only after I have drunk a few realise that the glass is a very wide tumbler.
What is a good malt BTW, not a really expensive one but one that is reasonable but basically good? I have tried ardbeg, highland park laphroag talisker but only a bit and a few others such as glenmorangie as a kid and glenfiddich as a kid including a special glenfid one me Dad got from a rep.
Well tonight I will be alternating betwen tea and rybena (with hot water for its vit c as I am feeling ****) and later on more highland park.
Just remembered a few years ago when I started geting whiskeys (before that I drank rum nit the cheap stuff but the single estate stuff when i could find it). Recycling is fortnightly and there were a few leading up to xmas that had about 5 or 6 bottles of mostly grouse with some single m alts in it! is that bad? plust the usual wine and beer bottles. That is just for me.

STEP 2: Use a scrap piece of paper to trace and cut out the correct size and shape to fit your jewelry base. Then, trace that onto another piece of paper and cut it out as a "window."
July 22, 2011
Dimensional Magic
As you know, I have a crafty love affair with Mod Podge. It's like duct tape, you can find a million uses for it! From Noah's crafts to my own projects, I feel like I'm constantly applying it. {Wish it smelled better!}
Anyway, there's a semi-new and very exciting Mod Podge product out there...Dimensional Magic.
Like its predecessors, it can be used in a variety of ways to accent all kinds of different projects, but my favorite use for it is in jewelry making. I had seen several pictures and posts where other people had done some very cool things with it and was just itching to try it myself. Here's my first attempt:
sheet music or your choice of decorative paper
ring base {available for $3.99 at Michaels}
Mod Podge Dimensional Magic
scissors, pencil
STEP 1: Choose your decorative paper or sheet music. I actually downloaded mine for free. You can use basically anything, but if you want lots of little notes and both clefs, you should look for classical music designed for piano. Since I started playing the piano at the age of 3, music is very meaningful to me and I wanted to choose something that I had a connection with rather than a random piece. I selected my very favorite classical piece to play, Chopin's Waltz in F minor, Op. 70, No.2. I learned it in college under the instruction of an amazingly talented professor and I just love the sound of it.
STEP 2: Use a scrap piece of paper to trace and cut out the correct size and shape to fit your jewelry base. Then, trace that onto another piece of paper and cut it out as a "window."
STEP 3: Trace the window onto your sheet music or scrapbook paper. This allows you to see just what will be in the oval, rather than trying to guess.
STEP 4: Cut out shape and use a thin coat of regular Mod Podge to adhere it in the jewelry base.
STEP 5: Fill base with Dimensional Magic and let dry for at least 3 hours.
At this point, I realized that it was going to be tricky finding a way to sit the ring down and let it dry while remaining flat...here's what I came up with. ;)
The hardest part was being patient and not touching it while it dried...
Here's the end result!
Because it was just thin regular computer paper, when the Mod Podge made it wet, it picked up some of the pattern from the back of the ring itself...see the gray dots? But you know what? I love that! I think it adds texture and some antique-ness to it. I chose not to tea stain the music because I didn't want the yellowed look, but I really like the effect this gave.
I. love. it.
I have a new obsession.
What do you think? Should I add some of these to Etsy? Of course, now you know how to make your own...:)

One wouldn't think buying a new car would lead to someone becoming depressed. But a new study commissioned by Kijiji Autos suggests otherwise.
In fact, they've coined a new term to describe the issue: Depreciation depression.
"It's a pretty interesting subject," said Scott Neil, head of Kijiji Autos in Canada. "No one else in the market was looking at it."
The online advertising site, which helps private sellers and dealers alike market pre-owned vehicles to millions of Canadian buyers, decided to investigate why people choose to purchase used. They also wanted to understand how vehicle buyers felt about new vehicle depreciation.
An Ipsos Reid poll conducted in September surveyed more than 1,000 Canadians, all of whom were asked about vehicle depreciation.
"We wanted to find out what people knew about depreciation, and how it made them feel," Neil said.
Depreciation, simply put, is the loss of a vehicle's value over time. And, according to the research, nine out of 10 Canadians acknowledge a new car loses about 15 per cent of its value the moment it leaves the dealership lot.
Some buyers would seem to be OK with that figure, happy to be the first owner of a brand new vehicle — and enjoying the entire experience.
Others, however, view the experience entirely differently. According to the Ipsos Reid poll, 30 per cent feel annoyed by depreciation, 18 per cent feel sad, 16 per cent feel upset, 8 per cent feel mad about it, and six per cent get depressed.
So, if buying new is a depressing thought, the option is buying used.
According to the survey, when looking at expenses such as maintenance, insurance and vehicle payments, a buyer could expect to save about $114 a month buying used as opposed to new.
And, not all vehicles depreciate as quickly or as much as others. For example, Neil suggested that there is a perception that domestic automobiles depreciate more rapidly than imports. In some cases, that's not true.
Cars with lower rates of annual depreciation, measured between 2010 and 2011, included a 2010 Cadillac Escalade at six per cent, while a 2008 Honda Pilot was at eight per cent. Both are respectable figures, and a lower number is always better.
Vehicles that depreciated the least include the Cadillac Escalade, as well as model year 2007 BMW X3 at five per cent and 2000 Buick Century at eight per cent.
Buying used, whether from a private seller or a dealer, means doing a bit of investigating to ensure receiving the best value for the money. These tips were suggested by Kijiji.
• Shop locally, and be sure to meet the seller or visit the dealer in person. Also, attempt to determine the vehicle's history, and ask to see a Used Vehicle Information Package (UVIP), and if available, a CarProof Vehicle History Report.
• Hire a technician to perform a professional inspection. While no one is infallible, the inspection might help shine a light on any deficiencies.
• Go in cold. Try to arrange the test drive when the engine is completely cold, as it should give a good indication of how the car starts, regardless of how long it's been parked. It's also always interesting to test drive a car when it's below freezing outside to see how quickly the engine warms up and begins providing heat.
• Inspect the car yourself, and check it inside and out. This is a great way to get to know the vehicle, and to find any issues with worn materials, tire treads, or rust that may need attention. If anything requires remedying, pointing the issues out to the seller may help in price negotiations.
• Consider the mileage and the age, and budget for repairs. Vehicles today are built to last much longer than vehicles built decades ago. However, you may need to consider some maintenance, such as timing belt replacement, when a vehicle has accumulated over 100,000 kilometres.
• Be sure to take the car for a test drive, and endeavour to go further than just around the block. How does it handle various road surfaces, does it clunk going over speed bumps, are all of the electronics — including windshield wipers — working as they should?

Looking to get on the courts today, Wednesday! E-mail me and let me know, up for playing doubles if you know other partners to play with, but love singles too!
I have a 13 yr old son who is very talented, yet still a little new to tennis. I played in high school (1977-1980), but that was a long time ago, and he needs someone his own age - or maybe a little older - to hit with on a regular basis. He's taking lessons, totally loves the game, and has a lot of competitive experience from many years of travel baseball. I am hoping he will decide he like tennis better because with each passing day I am hating the youth baseball scene a little more. we are in the Hilliard School district near bradley H.S.
