I Screwed My Shala's Sweet Daughter
Thursday, June 24, 2010
Hi ISS readers, I think all you know me. For the new readers, at first I introduce myself. I am Moni, late 40 and 5'-7". I was born in a middle class Bangladeshi Muslim family and serving in a public organization.I'm married and having two kids. My whole life is lustful indeed.
As I gained some practical experience about sex at my childhood, I became a sex-maniac and whenever I got chance I tried to fuck any aged girls or women with many tricks without applying force or at least to peep the uncovered boobs and pussies from hidden places when they change costumes.
I always find the chance to touch teats and breasts of sleeping girls or women. I think always believe "sex is one kind of art". So I want to share the real stories of those incidents of my life with yours. I assure you that every tale will give you a full satisfaction.
In the year 2007, I was posted in Jessore. I had to visit Khulna very often for my official tour. My shala (brother-in-law) Mr Quddus was residing in Khulna with his family. He has two kids, one son and one daughter. At that time his son Nantu was about 5 years and his daughter Sonali was about 17 years.
Sonali was studying in a college. Sonali's mother Amena is very conservative lady, she never comes in front of me. My shala Quddus worked in a ship and he often stayed in the sea. Maximum days Amena stayed alone with her children, she had a maid servant who slept in Amena's room and guarded her. When I went Khulna, I resided at my shala's house, Amena also hosted me nicely. Because the days I stayed she felt relaxed from anxiety.
For long 2 years I visited Quddus's house and his daughter Sonali gradually grew up in front of mebut I never look at her with bad intention. Sonali also very free with me and we had a friendly relation between us and that was fair and holy. But on the 12th May 2007 the whole structure broke.
As usual I went to Khulna on May 11 for 5 days tour. I reached there at the afternoon and the day was extremely hot. Quddus was not at home. The house had three rooms, one used as master bed room where my shala and his wife slept with their little son and other one was used my Sonali, the third one was the guest room and I always slept there.
I couldn't sleep well for the whole night and at the dawn the heat became reduced and I slept deeply. When I woke up it was 8 am, usually I wake up at 6 am. I went the bathroom and washed and then I entered into Sonali's room.
Sonali was reading on the bed leaning forward, her elbows were rested with the bed and she sat like a frog. I wished her and she raised her body by resting on her palms on the bed. She then didn't change her night dress and the night gown's top button was unbuttoned, otherwise it was deeply low cut. For that Sonali's 32 size whitish breasts were fully visible till their mushroom-head shaped black nipples.
They were hanging nicely. My heart was throbbing and I was amazed to look that, I stared at her breasts. Sonali noticed me and she understood the case and descending her head she looked at her chest and saw that her breasts were fully visible. She soon grabbed the upper part of the gown and hid her breasts and looked at me.
She smiled at me and told to sit. I sat there and told her "you have grown up." She shyly smiled and told "now I am studying in college, really I have grown up, can you realize now?" I laughed and left the room.
I was busy in the whole day for completing my official job and returned in the afternoon. As well as I went to sleep after lunch, in the dining table once I looked at Sonali exchange the glance and smiled. In the mid-night about 2 am the electricity went. The environment was so hot that it was impossible to stay in the room. So I went out from the room. I felt thirst and went to the dining table and drank a glass of water. When turned, I saw Sonali was coming out from her room. I asked her "could you too not stay in the room?"
She told "it is unbearable, in this hot weather the electricity goes." Then again she told "Fupaji (uncle), let's go on the roof, gentle breeze is blowing there." I agreed "okay, let's go." She told "let me get the key of the garret first, may it is lying on my table." She entered into her room and soon returned and told that the key was found.
We went upstairs and Sonali unlocked the door of the garret and we rode on the roof. She locked the door again. Really gentle sweet wind was blowing, my body became cool. There was a brick-wall about 2 feet high at the middle of the roof. I proposed Sonali "let's sit there." I sat on the wall and Sonali sat beside my left side, I got a scent from Sonali's body which was so sexy.
I asked her "how your mom is sleeping in her room?" She informed "they have rechargeable fan, otherwise there is a verandah adjacent the room, they can sit there, and sufferings are only for me." I solaced her "don't be silly, you are only daughter of your parents, they always take care you."
The environment became sadly, so Sonali laughed and told "leave it, now told me how you enjoy your tour?" I kept my left hand on her shoulder, my left palm rested on her left shoulder. I told "tell about yours, how is running your study, college?"
Sonali gladly answered "fine, I am enjoying my college, new college, new friends, new environment, new teachers." I added "new boyfriend, yes?"Sonali denied me, "no Fupa, I have no boyfriend, because my complexion is black." Sonali was not really black, she had slightly dark complexion but with prominent eyes and stiffed nose her appearance beautiful.
I told "no no, you are not black but you are so beautiful to look at". I advanced my left hand forwards and my wrist rested on her left shoulder. My palm hanged from her shoulder just above her left breast. I again asked "swear me, have you not any boyfriend?"
I forwarded my hand again, now my elbow rested on her neck and my palm hanged over her left breast. Sonali laughed and told "yes, there is one, but he is very innocent."She again added "do you know, my friend Joyeeta tells I look like Kajol." She was giggling. I told "nothing wrong, she tells the truth, you are really beautiful.
I swung my arm and my fingers rubbed her left nipple,she wore night gown, so she didn't wear bra. Sonali shivered like she got an electric shock. I asked "what happened?" Sonali gave a blow on my left thigh and told "really you became very naughty." I again swung my hand to and fro and then rubbed with more press. She didn't response, so I gathered more courage and I rested my palm on her left breast and slightly grabbed.
My finger tips touched Sonali's breast's base, I felt soft muscle. I applied pressure on my elbow, her body closed with mine.I asked Sonali "have he kissed you." She turned at me and gave some blow with her fist on my chest and told, "Fupa, you are so wicked".
When she returned again, my fingers held her whole left breast. I acted as pulling her towards me pressed on her breast, my fingers dipped in the soft muscle of her breast. Sonali didn't hesitate or obstruct me, I got the courage to grab her breast. I told "your lips are so nice that, when I see, willing to kiss." She told "you have kissed me earlier many times."
I told "that was on your cheek or forehead with affection but now I willing to kiss on your lips with love, do you know love kisses are always be on lips?" She giggled "Fupa, you have been very naughty, I see, you are very dangerous man for girls, God knows how Fupu (my wife) tackles you?"I didn't waste more time, I grabbed Sonali's left breast and pressed forcefully. She shouted in low tone "uhh, slowly, it hurts." I laughed "okay, okay, I am now pressing softly."
I grabbed her both the breasts and began to squeeze. Sonali relaxed her body with mine, she turned her body oppositely to give me easy access to grab her breasts. I held her face hand kissed on her lips and suckedherjuicy lips. I raised her gown at her throat and then I again grabbed her voluptuous breasts and began to squeeze.
The bare breasts were so soft and round, there was no light in the dark night, though I could see its black tiny nipples. I descended my head and took one breast in my mouth and began to suck. Sonali began to moan AAAHH AAAAHH AAAHHHH AAAAHHH AAAAHHH AAAHHH AAHHHH IIIISSSSHHHHH UUUHHHH. Gradually she laid on my lap. In the meantime my penis erected and became hard like an iron mast. When she laid my penis poked on her back.
Sonali grabbed my penis and began to press tightly. I showed her to move her hand up and down. It was obstructed by my lungi, so she raised my lungi and grabbed my bare penis and began to move her hand up and down. She caressed my circumcised penis head, I was kneading her breasts with more pressure but that time it was not hurting.
After few minutes Sonali took my penis into her mouth and began to suck it, at a time she handled my penis. I stretched my hand and reached at her pussy. She wore nothing under her night gown. I felt sparse pubic hairs at her pubic area. I inserted my finger into her pussy crack, I felt her clitoris, it was slippery with her pre cum. I leaned my body over her and laid her on her back I astride on her body and rested on my foot.
At that position I inserted my penis into Sonali's mouth for sucking and touched my nose with her pussy lips to sniff the vagina's sweet sexy aromaand thenI began to lick her young pussy. I got saline test at her clitoris, her pussy was covered with sparse but long pubic hairs, it felt like fiber of the palm in my mouth. I rubbed and caressed her clitoris and she whimpered in ecstasy.
After about 10 minutes or so I got up and sat on the wall again. I raised Sonali and stood her at my face to face. Then she astride on my thighs. I held my penis and set with her pussy hole. Sonali herself grabbed my penis and set at her pussy hole and gave slight press and my circumcised penis head popped into her pussy.
Then I grabbed her shoulder and gave a sudden pressure downwards. She screamed and I felt my penis shoved about half-length into her pussy. She was a virgin and her hymen had torn just now. I felt a warm stream oozed at my groin and balls. I realized that her pussy was bleeding and I halted for little moment. She was shivering and hugging me.
I kissed on her face, lips and sucked her tongue. After few minutes Sonali herself moved and raised her waist about 2 inches and again pressed downwards. Her pussy lips touched my pubic area, this is the full length shoved into her pussy. I felt her womb at my penis head. Her tight pussy wall grasped my penis tightly.
Then Sonali began to rise upwards and lowered downwards. I was kneading her breasts and kissing her. After about 20 minutes Sonali began to moan and hissed AH AH AH AH AH AH AH AHH AHH AH AH AH AH AH AHHHH AH AHH AH AH AAH AHHH AHH AHHH AHH AHH AUU AHA UIIISSSHHH SSSIIISHH IIIIIIIIIISSSHHHH. I asked Sonali "how you are feeling?"
She smiled "unprecedented, I am living in the heaven, please hugged me tightly, I am dying in joy." I hugged her tightly; I realized that she reached at her orgasm.Within two minutes she began to churn her waist and I thought her pussy is a mortar and my penis is a pestle and she stirred something with it.
Sonali held my penis tightly with her pussy wall and spurted her semen, which oozed from her pussy and drenched my balls and groins. In the meantime the electricity came and Sonali went to bathroom. I went my room and saw that my lungi was drenched with blood.
Next night I couldn't sleep and hoped that Sonali must come to my room. At about 1 am when I just went in nap I heard a sound and woke up. I saw Sonali was entering my room, soon she came to my bed and told "why I have to come your room? Can you not go to me?
Remember, from tomorrow night you will awake me." I laughed and told "okay okay, need not to take a pique at me, now let's enjoy." Then I hugged her and after pre course I fucked her. After that when I went Kulna I passed a nice time with Sonali, nobody knows."
Now she is staying in abroad for her higher education. She often phones me and banters like "my dear hero, I feel very lonely here, really I miss you. When I think you my vagina becomes wet. When I will return, I want you for a full day and night." I laughed "okay dear, return fast."

The loss of cornerback Lardarius Webb to a season-ending torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee is a blow to the Ravens defense. It also could impact the team on punt returns.
Webb had teamed with Jacoby Jones for that duty, and although he handled just six chances – half of what Jones has undertaken so far – Webb was a sure-handed option.
Now the Ravens are left with deciding how to fill the vacancy. For now, it appears that Jones will be the primary returner and free safety Ed Reed can complement him, but the team could also turn to a pair of rookies in Asa Jackson and Bobby Rainey.
In the preseason, Jackson finished with just one punt return for 40 yards, but he had an 85-yard return against the Detroit Lions on Aug. 17 nullified by a holding penalty.
"Being in the return game is something I've always liked and something I've always prided myself on," said Jackson, the organization's fifth-round choice who has been deactivated for every game thus far. "It's something that I can bring to a team. So now that I'm looking more like I can get that opportunity, I'm excited and I'm ready."
Rainey led the team in punt returns in the preseason with eight and averaged 6.8 yards per return. Rainey said proving himself on special teams has been a priority of his.
"I've been getting a lot of reps at punt returner since Webb went down," Rainey said. "But we'll see how it plays out."
Special teams coordinator Jerry Rosburg was reluctant to specify who would be replacing Webb, but he said ball security and explosiveness are two characteristics that will be high on his list.
"We went all the way through preseason, and Bobby Rainey had reps, Asa Jackson had reps, Ed Reed is one of the most sure-handed guys in the National Football League, and we have Jacoby," Rosburg said. "So we'll miss Webby, but we have other guys that can step up and fill in."

New Car Review
2014 Chevrolet Silverado WT: Overview
Pros: Well-priced; handsome new styling; tough truck for tough jobs
Cons: Almost no equipment; low-rent interior; some cheap plastics
What's New: The Chevrolet Silverado is completely redesigned for the 2014 model year to offer new styling, new engines and improved capability.
The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado comes in several trims, ranging from the base-level Work Truck trim to the luxury-oriented Silverado High Country. This overview focuses on the Work Truck, a stripped-down commercial-oriented model aimed at fleet shoppers or drivers who need a truck that can take abuse.
That means you shouldn't expect too many features from the Silverado Work Truck. Indeed, you'll find only the basics: air conditioning, power locks, cruise control and an AM/FM stereo, for instance. There's no CD player, no auxiliary jack for an iPod and no satellite radio. Base-level trucks don't even use cloth seats, as vinyl is standard instead.
But the tradeoff for that lack of equipment is reasonable pricing. The Silverado WT starts around $26,500 with shipping, making it one of the least-expensive full-size pickups you can buy. Opt for a double cab and you'll pay around $30,600, while 4-door Crew Cab models start around $34,700 with shipping. Those prices are on par with rivals such as the Ford F-150 and Ram 1500, though the Silverado's driving dynamics and updated interior give it the edge over both of those vehicles.
For drivers who can't live with only the basics, Chevrolet offers a few optional extras. You can add in a CD player, for instance, and GM's OnStar telematics system. Same goes for SiriusXM satellite radio and a center-mounted touchscreen. And Crew Cab models even offer available navigation.
Under the hood, the Silverado WT uses a 4.3-liter V6. That's the same engine size as last year, though Chevrolet says the engine itself is all-new. It boasts 285 horsepower -- an increase of 90 hp from last year's model -- and 305 lb-ft of torque. Fuel economy is 18 miles per gallon city/24 mpg hwy with 2-wheel drive or 17 mpg city/22 mpg hwy with 4-wheel drive.
For shoppers who want more grunt, the Silverado WT also offers a new 5.3-liter V8 that makes 355 hp and 383 lb-ft of torque. That engine costs around $1,000 extra and returns 16 mpg city/23 mpg hwy with 2-wheel drive or 16 mpg city/22 mpg hwy with 4-wheel drive.
The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado WT is a great pickup for drivers who don't want -- or need -- all the bells and whistles. If you're driving to job sites, hauling machinery and visiting construction zones, this may be the truck for you.

Gallery: Things Men Say That You Should Believe
Oh, men. So simple…so straightforward. And yet so many of us like to think that when they say things like, "it's over," what they mean is, "it's over, unless you can convince me otherwise."
I wish that this was just a cruel cliche, but I've known too many women of all ages (myself included) who, upon hearing certain words come out of men's mouths, twist them and turn them until they become something different, something new, something bursting with rainbows and possibility!
But generally, it behooves both parties in any relationship to take their partners' statements at face value. Besides, if someone is deliberately saying things they don't mean, that's called "manipulation," and that's a whole other gallery. So here are some things that if you hear from the lips of a man (or a woman, for that matter), you should accept:

Oprah Winfrey's New Dog Sadie, a Cocker Spaniel
Sadie Makes Her Doggy Debut on Oprah!
I was pretty anxious to sneak a peek at Oprah's new pup, and was so jealous of my mom, who got to catch Sadie's national debut on East Coast time. Well, everyone, her cuteness is well worth the wait. Although the pooch was named Amanda in the shelter, Oprah's calling her new Cocker Spaniel Sadie. (That name change should be no problem if she follows my tips on the subject.) Seems like the puppy was struggling to adjust in her new, very loving home but looks rather content now — see for yourself in the video below!
Even though Oprah brought out Sadie's three brothers who are all available for adoption at PAWS Chicago, there are nearly 2,000 adoptable Cocker Spaniels and cocker mixes available on Petfinder.com across the country.

THE QUEEN could lose sovereignty over Australia if Scotland becomes independent, according to a top solicitor.
David Denton SC, a senior counsel and adjunct professor of law at Victoria University in Melbourne, has urged constitutional monarchists and republicans to "renew the debate on Australia's future constitutional framework with some urgency" as "an independent Scotland may yet create an Australian republic".
Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond has pledged to retain the Queen as head of state of an independent Scotland.
But Mr Denton believes Scottish independence could create "an Australian constitutional vacuum" if the United Kingdom that existed when the Australian federation was agreed in 1900 ceases to exist.
Writing in Melbourne-based newspaper The Herald Sun, he said: "The UK itself is the sovereign state under international law. It was under this single UK that we Australians agreed to federate in 1900 under our constitution.
"The Australian constitution is unequivocal in that it united the Australian people under the crown of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and (now) Northern Ireland."
He said any alteration in the law touching the succession to the throne "requires the assent of the parliament of Australia".
He added: "If the Parliament in Westminster wishes to pass legislation to facilitate a matter touching on the succession to the crown of a new-fashioned UK (as it must inevitably become) then the parliament of Australia must give its consent to this as it will affect the law of Australia, not the least of which is our constitution and our states.
"The United Kingdom (that) Australians agreed to federate under will no longer exist. A UK which is de jure separated is not the UK for Australian constitutional purposes.
"It is possible to envisage an Australian constitutional vacuum existing if our UK ceases to exist.
"Whatever is to happen, it seems that it is no longer a matter for Australians to simply await a re-agitation of the republic debate after the passing of the reign of Queen Elizabeth.
"She may shortly not even be Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland nor, therefore, the Queen of Australia."

We knew that beta testing was going on, and there wasn't a thing we could do about it. It has been 11 years since the last Diablo game, and the scrutiny on the upcoming sequel has been fierce. So when rumors began that Blizzard was planning a beta test, fans rejoiced. When it was announced that the beta was officially on the way, and would debut sometime between June and September, fans rejoiced harder. Then when a private beta for employees and their friends/families was announced, the rejoicing became a bit more subdued. "Meh" seems like a good word for it.
But that is all in the past, and Blizzard has begun sending out invites the beta. It is still a closed beta, and only those that have actively signed up have a shot at an invite. If you are one of the lucky ones, the key will be sent through Battle.net to your email.
But even if you don't receive an invite, it is good news for fans of the game. There is still no official release date, or month, or quarter, or release year for that matter, but this is a good step towards the retail release of the game.
Many rumors have suggested that Diablo III would be out in time for Christmas, but there has been no confirmation of that. With BlizzCon scheduled for later next month, it would make sense to announce it then–assuming that the beta runs smoothly. In other words, the stars may be aligning for a December 2011 Diablo III release.
One potential snag is that Blizzard seems to have plans to bring the game to consoles as well. If so, that could delay the release further. Of course, that is always assuming that the PC and console versions will release simultaneously, and there really is no reason the think they will.
So for now, here's hoping that the beta runs well. If not, the game could be pushed back until next year. Or the year after. Or the year after that….

Consensus Report
Ocean Noise and Marine Mammals (2003)Ocean Studies Board
Each report is produced by a committee of experts selected by the Academy to address a particular statement of task and is subject to a rigorous, independent peer review; while the reports represent views of the committee, they also are endorsed by the Academy. Learn more on our expert consensus reports.
For the 119 species of marine mammals, as well as for some other aquatic animals, sound is the primary means of learning about their environment and of communicating, navigating, and foraging. Ambient noise and its potential impacts have been regulated since the passage of the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972; however, public awareness of the issue has escalated in the past decade when researchers began using high-intensity sound to measure ocean climate changes and stranding of beaked whales occurred in proximity to U.S. Navy sonar use. This report reviews sources of noise in the ocean environment, what is known of the responses of marine mammals to acoustic disturbance, and what models exist for describing ocean noise and marine mammal responses. Recommendations are made for future data gathering efforts, studies of marine mammal behavior and physiology, and modeling efforts necessary to determine what the long- and short-term impacts of ocean noise on marine mammals.
Key Messages
- Addressing the challenge of both short- and long-term effects of ocean noise on marine mammals is a difficult problem and will require a multidisciplinary effort between biologists and acousticians to establish a rigorous observational, theoretical, and modeling program.
- Although the few documented cases of direct impact on individuals have raised awareness of potential population impacts, no measures exist of marine mammal population effects from ocean noise.
- Currently, data regarding noise produced by shipping, seismic surveying, oil and gas production, marine and coastal construction, and other marine activities are either not known or are difficult to analyze because they are maintained by separate organizations such as industry database companies, shipping industry groups, and military organizations.
- Each characteristic of noise from anthropogenic sources may differentially impact each species of marine mammals. The complex interactions of sound with marine life are not sufficiently understood to specify which features of the acoustic signal are important for specific impacts. Therefore as many as characteristics as possible should be measured and reported.
- Efforts must be made to measure ocean noise in marine mammal habitats. Until these habitats are fully known and described, it is reasonable to begin a long-term monitoring program in coastal areas and areas close to known marine mammal foraging, migration, and breeding areas.
- Federal leadership is needed to (1) monitor ocean noise, especially in areas with resident marine mammal populations; (2) collect and analyze existing databases of marine activity; and (3) coordinate research efforts to determine long-term trends in marine noise and the possible consequences for marine life.
- Fish use sound in many ways that are comparable to the ways marine mammals communicate and sense their environment. The effects of anthropogenic noise on fishes and other nonmammalian species, including their eggs and larvae, are largely unknown.
- Identifying reliable indicators for anthropogenic sources will provide an additional modeling tool and predictive capability that will be particularly useful in areas where long-term monitoring may be difficult or impossible.
- Little is known about long-term trends in ocean noise levels.
- Marine mammals themselves may be significant sources of ocean noise, although possibly in localized areas over limited time periods.
- Short-term responses of marine mammals to anthropogenic noise sources have been documented to a limited degree; however, long-term effects of marine noise on the behavior of marine mammals have received less attention.
- Simulation models that predict the characteristics of the noise (frequency content, mean squared level, peak level, pressure time series, etc.) and their effects on marine mammals may assist in understanding and mitigating harmful effects of marine noise on mammals.
- Stress indicators may be one useful marker for long-term effects of anthropogenic noise on marine mammals.
- There is a surprising lack of information regarding the global distribution of marine mammals. Migration routes, breeding grounds, and feeding areas are known for relatively few species.
- There is an indirect relationship between strandings and the use of multiple mid-range sonars in military exercises in some nearshore beaked whale habitats.
- Two technological improvements of current tags are needed: (1) increase the duration of long-term data-gathering tags from months to multiple years to observe annual behavior cycles and migration patterns, and (2) extend the duration of high-resolution tags from hours to days to gather more data on daily behavior and environmental cues.

Derby Cocktail
Benedictine is one of those products which often is gathering dust at most bars across the country. Typically they will even have just a bottle of "B&B" instead of Benedictine, which only shows that they don't really know how to use this product. So I am always on the lookout for great cocktails which can illustrate the value that Benedictine can bring to a drink. There are a few different cocktails going by the name of "Derby", but the version I show here is one which I think is an excellent drink to introduce people to the potential that Benedictine provides.
2 oz bourbon
1/4 oz Benedictine
dash Angostura Aromatic Bitters
Stir with ice.
Strain into a cocktail glass.
Garnish with lemon twist.

I really enjoy benedictine with Rye and Bourbon. It works well as a replacement for rich simple syrup in drinks like a Mint Julep for instance.
Here in New York State, we are lucky to have Benedictine readily available. One thing we can't find is Amer Picon, but that's anther story altogether.
Garretto 28 Apr 2009

My guess is that in your travels you're able to acquire a bottle of Benedictine here and there when needed. I say this because I really love the stuff and if here in AZ it wasn't available due to the whim of some bureaucrat I'd be enraged! All those great bars in the Seattle area, do they have to go buy it in Portland?
It's a great ingredient! I love the Vieux Carre and La Louisiane you introduced me to via The Cocktail Spirit. Also, the Bulls Manahattan by Dale Degroff is a fantastic use of Benedictine.
I shall try the Derby, like it, and savor each bottle of Benedictine.

Bars here in WA can still "Special Order" Benedictine, although they either have to order an entire case, or wait until there are enough "Special Orders" from other bars stacked up so their store can order a case. There are some bizzaro laws up here.
I fortunately picked up a couple bottles when I heard they were "delisting" it, and I also know how to use my web-browser, so it won't be difficult to restock when I run out :->
Garretto 28 Apr 2009
12:08 pm
I am familiar with this "web-browser" you speak of. This is where AZ laws get "bizarro."
My family tried to ship some wine to us from a winery out of state and they had to ship it to a liquor store for us to pick up, they couldn't ship it directly to our door.
For this reason I have never considered (or had the need to due to the availability of most booze) ordering liquor on line. This law may have changed for all I know.
It is bizarro that in WA you can have booze delivered to your door via mail, but can't pick up a bottle of gin at the grocery store.
Glad to hear you have a convenient method of acquiring your Benedictine.
You certainly have better bars in your neck of the woods regardless of the State's grip.

Thanks Robert!
I enjoyed this one, but in fairness I am already a big fan of 'monastery' liqueurs. I also love the Derby variation found in Ted Haigh's fantastic book 'Vintage Spirits and Forgotten Cocktails' which he in turn sourced from Trader Vic's 'Bartender's Guide' (1947 version).
This one employs (I've adpated it slightly):
1 oz Bourbon
1/2 oz sweet vermouth
1/2 oz orange curacao
3/4 oz fresh lime juice
and 1 mint leaf thrown in the shaker.
Shake & Strain into a chilled coupette garnish with a 'slapped' mint leaf. Delicious!

Hello Robert,
I know the same recipe (just 1/2oz of simple syrup more) called a American Sazerac, i drank this cocktail and the original sazerac, with cognac(many time, maybe too many to be in thesame nite), the original has no rivals!!!!
By the way i know a recipe for a derby cocktail:
2 dash Peach bitter
2 spring fresh mint
1 glass (50ml) Dry
Shake and Strain in cocktail glass (Henry Craddock, The Savoy cocktail book)
The Brown Derby cocktail
50ml Bourbon
25ml Fresh Grapefruit juice
10ml Honey Water
Shake n Strain into cocktail Glass(The craft of the cocktail, Dale DeGroff)
i didn't try ur recipe yet but i will soon, i love MAKER'S MARK

Great drink!
I also think that fresh rosemary and cardamom (tincture) play very well with Benedictine. Give it a try, I recommend!

Holding Bourbon as a favourite, whilst still not having found the perfect cocktail to truly appreciate Benedictine, I am very excited by this drink. Maybe this will open my eyes to such a historic product. Celebrating its 500th year, its definately one I would like to be using more frequently.

Robert and Co., I feel your pain! I'm up in Ontario, Canada and whoever runs our government-run liquor stores should be FIRED! I've been harassing them for a year and they JUST stocked Luxardo Maraschino! Hahaha!

Question, Sir: When you're doing a long spiral twist, like the one in this drink, what do you consider long enough? Until the channel knife cuts through? (Which would have to be, then, wouldn't it?) Or what? 3 Inches (looks like what you have here)? 4? Twice around the lemon? 7 inches (Looks impressive as hell to me.)
Just curious. Early engineer training before my mixological avocation arose will tell.
Robert Hess 11 Mar 2013

Length of Twist… here, you raise a very good question, as well as a good point. Technically, everything you do to a drink should be specifically designed to improve the drink, or at the very least not damage it in any way. The citrus twist is a garnish which actually provides a certain level of enhancement, specifically through the essential oils which are imparted. Too energetic of a twist, on the wrong drink, can overpower it with too much citrus oils. To meager of a twist, or one which has been precut and stored, can not add enough for what the drink actually needs.
Usually, the twists I use on the show, are done with a channel knife, and I typically try to get enough so that not only are enough oils imparted into the drink, but the spiral is long enough to provide an eye appealing twist.
As you experiment at home, I might recommend trying a few different lengths and see at what point you think the essential oils are getting properly balanced within the drink, and then also try something more robust and see at what point it drives it off of the cliff.

Can you really put a 1.2-litre petrol engine in a vehicle as big as a Nissan Qashqai and expect it to be any good? Well, yes, you can. The latest Qashqai has established its bona fides and the turbocharged 1.2-litre engine can manage a respectable 115PS, which will be more than enough for many customers. The affordable opening price isn't going to hurt either.
What do you think of when we mention a 1.2-litre engine? Chances are that you'll form a mental picture of an underpowered city car; something joyless and cramped that will instantly have you pigeonholed as the worst sort of penny-pincher. If, on the other hand, we were to mention a new Nissan Qashqai, the image would be altogether happier. That would be about having a sleek-looking crossover parked outside your house, filled with clever tech that would probably make you a rather cool mum or dad. Believe it or not, these two sections of the Venn diagram do intersect in the shape of the Qashqai 1.2 DIG-T model. Car manufacturers have become a whole lot better at engine downsizing in recent years, understanding how to utilise turbochargers not only to add power but also to attain decent fuel economy and emissions figures. If you thought this Qashqai 1.2 DIG-T was merely in the range to give Nissan a low price to trumpet in their promotions, think again. It's here on merit.
As you might well expect at this price point, you don't get all-wheel drive but then neither do most Qashqai customers. Around 85 per cent of all Qashqais will be sold running a front-wheel drive chassis and it makes sense. It's more efficient, more cost-effective, easier to package and most target customers don't need all-wheel drive anyway. As for the changes made to this revised model, well on the face of things, not much has altered in terms of drive dynamics, though Nissan insists that under the skin, modifications to the suspension, damping and steering systems have resulted in a more refined on-the-road experience, plus refinement's better too. The 115PS engine has a bit to it and thus equipped, this Qashqai will skip to 62mph in 11.3 seconds and run onto a top speed of 115mph, so it's unlikely you'll feel embarrassed in the outside lane. Peak torque is made between 2,000 and 4,000rpm thanks to the turbocharger, so it's not as if you need to rev it like crazy to make respectable progress. That always used to be the recipe if you fitted a small engine in a big car but things have changed for the better. Okay, so this is never going to be a vehicle where you overtake just for the fun of it, but motorway cruising is relaxed and refined and handling is assured thanks to the standard Chassis Control system. This uses Active Trace Control to improve stability through bends by braking the inside wheel while Active Ride Control also stabilises the car this time over bumps that could cause the car's body to pitch slightly forward and backwards. The ingenious double-piston dampers already put the Qashqai a step ahead of its key rivals in terms of ride quality. There's also a dual mode steering system which changes the weighting of the electrically-assisted rack when you select the Sport setting.
As part of this model's mid-term package of upgrades, it gets a smarter look featuring a completely revised front end, including the latest Nissan 'V-motion' grille. The headlamps have also been revised with a new version of the 'boomerang' Daytime Running Light signature. At the rear, the car's instantly recognisable 'boomerang' light motif is extended across the whole lamp, and now includes a contemporary 3D lens effect to enhance the signature shape. There are changes in the cabin too, where an improved layout, higher-quality materials and more advanced technology feature. The 'NissanConnect' infotainment system features a smarter user interface and also new is a D-shaped multi-function steering wheel with premium satin-chrome inserts. It features a new four-way controller for the combimeter display, for more intuitive use and less 'eyes off the road' time. The new range-topping Tekna+ grade includes new seats trimmed in high-quality soft nappa leather and a new option for music fans is a BOSE seven-speaker premium sound system. Practicality is as good as ever, with reasonable space in the back and decent headroom thanks to a relatively low seat height in the back. Boot space is 430-litres and load space flexibility is enhanced by a dual-floor system designed to provide a flexible and versatile load space.
Expect prices for this 1.2-litre engine to start at around £18,000 and top out at around £24,000 for the range-topping model. That's right, this engine is offered in all trim levels, from starter Visia grade and then progressing through Acenta, Acenta Premium, Tekna and Tekna+. That should give you a clue, if clues were indeed required, that this engine isn't just a cheap way of luring you into a showroom. Even the entry-level model gets a decent bash at the equipment list, being furnished with cruise control, a stereo with USB and Bluetooth, heated body-coloured mirrors, air conditioning, stop/start and hill start assist. It also gets the usual safety features like ESP stability control, ABS brakes with electronic brakeforce distribution and front, side and curtain airbags. Safety-wise, there's an 'Intelligent Emergency Braking' system that features Pedestrian Recognition, plus 'Rear Cross Traffic Alert', to mitigate the risk of low-speed impacts when reversing out of a parking space, is now available on Qashqai for the first time. The car continues to be offered with Traffic Sign Recognition, Driver Attention Alert, Intelligent Park Assist, Intelligent Around View Monitor, Blind Spot Warning and Lane Departure Warning. And buyers will now be offered the option of 'ProPILOT' autonomous drive capability. Controlling the steering, acceleration and braking in a single lane on highways, this will provide consumers with more control of their vehicle and a more confident drive, plus greater freedom when they want it, whether during heavy traffic congestion or high-speed cruising.
It's often the case that 'small engine in big car' results in some surprisingly terrible fuel economy figures but the Qashqai 1.2-litre's decent amount of torque means that you don't need to gun this powerplant hard to get going. This results in very respectable figures of 50.4mpg on the combined cycle with emissions of 129g/km. As well as fitting stop/start systems, reducing engine frictional losses, optimising gear ratios and reducing weight where possible, Nissan has also devoted a great deal of attention to the Qashqai's aerodynamics. With a drag co-efficient of 0.32, it cleaves the air very well for a relatively high vehicle. From the elements on show such as the roof spoiler with winglets, to those hidden away like the flat floor design, there's some clever thinking at work here. Another innovation making its debut on the manual-boxed diesel Qashqais is an Active Grille Shutter system. This closes off airflow through the radiator when not needed. The grille shutter automatically shuts at speeds over 18mph and only opens if sensors detect that the engine needs cooling.

PCP (Personal Contract Purchase) a simple cost effective way to buy your new or nearly new
You choose the car, the deposit, how long you want the contract to run for and the mileage you intend to do. You will then receive a quote for fixed cost motoring for the length of the contract. At the end of the contract you have a choice to either buy the car outright for an agreed lump sum (the GFV or final balloon payment), or hand the vehicle back to the lender.
Hire Purchase allows you to take ownership of a car once all payments are made.
This is one of the most popular methods to buy a new vehicle. You pay an initial deposit, then pay off the balance in monthly payments over an agreed period of time, when the payments are complete the car is yours.
One of the main benefits with Hire Purchase is the ability to buy a high value vehicle on
monthly payments.
Hire Purchase allows you to tailor your finance package as deposit, length of time and monthly payments are all flexible.
Personal contract hire is very similar to normal contract hire, but is exclusively for
private individuals. This
is one of the most common form of leasing.
With a personal contract hire agreement you take control of a car for a contractual period � usually referred to as the �lease period�. You will make fixed monthly payments for the duration of the contract � when the contract expires you will simply return the car and take out a new personal contract hire lease. PCH means you never have to worry about resale values of your car.

The Redwood Area Hospital invites all community cancer survivors to join in celebrating life at the 19th annual cancer survivors picnic.
The event is being held June 4 from 5:30-7:30 p.m. in the Red-wood Area Hospital education room.
The Redwood Area Hospital invites all community cancer survivors to join in celebrating life at the 19th annual cancer survivors picnic. The event is being held June 4 from 5:30-7:30 p.m. in the Red-wood Area Hospital education room. The picnic is a chance for cancer survivors, caregivers, family members, friends and healthcare professionals to join together to show life after a cancer diagnosis can be meaningful and productive. "Let's join together and show the community that surviving cancer is an attitude about life and living each day to the fullest," said Cindy Moldan, registered nurse with the Redwood Area Hos-pital Cancer Care Center. "We will also recognize the contributions of their families, friends and healthcare providers." The picnic will include Subway sandwiches, beverage and utensils furnished by the hospital. Guests are invited to bring a dish to pass if they wish. Entertainment at the event is going to feature Annie's Amazing Aprons, a presentation of aprons from past to present. "The idea that aprons shield us and offer a layer of protection and hope is a great one to share with cancer survivors," said Moldan. "No matter where you are in your cancer journey we can all use someone or something to protect us from harm." Major advances in cancer prevention, early detection and treatment have resulted in longer survival, and therefore, a growing number of cancer survivors. However, a cancer diagnosis can leave a host of problems in its wake. Physical, financial and emotional hardships often persist after diagnosis and treatment. Anyone living with a history of cancer, from the moment of diagnosis through the remainder of life, is a cancer survivor. More than 11 million Americans are now living with and beyond a diagnosis of cancer. In the United States, almost half of all men and one third of all women are expected to be diagnosed with cancer at some point in their lives. Learning about this disease is crucial, be-cause many forms of cancer can be prevented and most cured if detected early. For more information, call Moldan at the Redwood Area Hospital at (507) 637-4512 or visit www.redwoodareahospital.org.

Citizens academy to dispel myths, offer insights to Warwick Police
For the second time this year, the Warwick Police Department (WPD) is welcoming residents to take part in its free, eight-week Citizens Police Academy.
The academy runs from Sept. 12 to Nov. 6 and will primarily be held at the Warwick Police Department Headquarters at 99 Veterans Memorial Drive, with a few off-site visits, every Wednesday from 6:30 to 9 p.m.
The objective is to offer the people a glimpse into the hands-on training police officers follow on a daily basis, while building a stronger bond between the department, its residents and the business community.
"We talk about a little bit of everything," Lt. Michael Gilbert said during an interview last week. "When people leave, they have a better understanding of what we can do with the tools we have because it's not like CSI. Some of the stuff you see on those TV shows is very accurate; it's just not completely accurate. One of our goals is to educate people and get rid of some of those myths."
For example, said Gilbert, "You can't take a blood sample, put it in a magic computer and get an answer in five minutes like they do on TV. It just doesn't happen. The results aren't instant."
Officer Steven Nelson, a community police officer for the WPD, is the coordinator. He lines up the instructors, which are all skilled members of the WPD, and puts together the curriculum.
Among the topics that will be covered, are forensic evidence such as blood spatter analysis and fingerprinting, regular uniform patrol, detective work, community policing, an instruction on the Bureau of Criminal Investigation, plus other divisions and special units like the S.W.A.T. team, emergency vehicle operation and a lesson on firearms handling and safety at a shooting range.
The class ends with participants joining officers on a ride-along.
"They can actually get in a police car, go out there with officers and respond to different calls," Gilbert said. "They don't get to interact or get out of the car, but they can see what a car stop or disturbance looks like to get a real life feel of what they've been learning about."
The academy is geared more toward citizens, as opposed to individuals looking to getting into a law enforcement career. Essentially, it's mostly about educating residents, said Gilbert.
"Some of the feedback we get is, 'I really had no idea that you didn't have this or that you do have that,'" he said.
At the last class, which took place in the spring, Gilbert said participants were shocked to learn that the department recently acquired two K-9s. They didn't realize the WPD didn't have them for a few years.
"They thought we had them all along," said Gilbert. "Well, our K-9 officer retired two or three [years] ago and we didn't have a dog in the city working for us. People were sitting in the class going, 'You mean to tell me we haven't had a K-9 in the city of Warwick?' The answer was, yes. We haven't had funding and those dogs are about $10,000 apiece for the training and everything else that goes into them. When things got bad, they had to be cut."
Additionally, he said the biggest benefit the academy offers the community is a better appreciation of what the WPD does. Moreover, it helps the department, as citizens learn how to be a good witness if they see a crime or accident. Overall, it builds a better partnership.
"People are more likely to call us and report crimes when they've had an opportunity to take this class," said Gilbert. "They have a better understanding of what we do and they can share their information with officers. We can also get some feedback from these classes about [what] concerns or complaints they may have."
No matter what, said Gilbert, people who take the class always enjoy it. He said the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive.
"They tell their friends and family, 'You've got to sign up for it. It was great. I had no idea it would be so much fun,'" said Gilbert. "Whether it's a kid who's 20 or someone who is 70, they can both do it – male or female, physically fit or not physically fit. There are really no limitations."
The academy is free of charge to Warwick residents and/or employees who are at least 18 years old, with no criminal histories. The deadline for applications is today. Class size is limited to 30 participants.
For more information about the academy, contact Officer Nelson at 468-4373 or email@example.com.

Speeches & Statement
Ryan's Opening Statement: CBO's Budget and Economic Outlook
Opening Remarks, as Prepared for Delivery
Hi, everybody—and welcome. Well, first I want to thank Director Elmendorf and his team. We appreciate your taking the time to meet with us today. You've put together a very informative report. It does a great job of laying out the challenges we face.
My main takeaway is this: We still have a lot of work to do. This year, we're going to run a deficit of $514 billion. Now, that's less than last year's—but it's nothing to brag about. In fact, the deficit will start growing in just two years. By 2022, we will be running trillion-dollar deficits again—even though we will be taking in a historically large share of revenue. That's because spending will be growing twice as fast as revenue. So over the next ten years, we will add $10 trillion more to our national debt—for a grand total of $27 trillion. It's hardly time to start congratulating each other.
Now, I was glad that we passed the bipartisan budget deal last year. It was a firm step in the right direction—but only a step. We need to do more—much more. And it's déjà vu all over again—because we know what the problem is. Autopilot spending and interest payments are driving our debt. Interest alone will quadruple over the next ten years. And Obamacare is clearly part of the problem. It adds trillions of dollars in government spending. And it's made things worse for our economy and for working families.
By 2017, CBO projects people will be working fewer hours—precisely because of the incentives created by this law. The effect will be severe—as if 2.5 million people had stopped working full time by 2024. Between 2017 and 2024, overall labor compensation will also decline. And these changes will disproportionately affect lower-wage workers. Translation: Washington is making the poverty trap that much worse.
Your report points out some of the weak spots in our economy: low investment, high unemployment, people leaving the workforce. If we got our act together, we could start paying down our debt and give our economy the certainty it needs. Tax reform, regulatory reform, and energy development—I believe all these could create jobs and increase take-home pay.
I want to highlight one point. This report says the debt gets worse, and we have slower economic growth compared to the last forecast. But what is particularly troubling is CBO's projection of labor-force participation. CBO says that about half of this decline is attributable to the aging of the population—most notably the retirement of the baby-boom generation. But CBO also says that government policies, especially the President's health-care law, are discouraging work. Washington is making this problem worse. This does not have to be our fate. We need to reverse this decline.
So I consider your report a call to action. We know what the problem is. We know how to fix it. And I believe we can work together to get it done. The debt won't take care of itself—it's up to us. We must take action now.
So I want to thank you once again for the report and for your time today. I look forward to hearing your testimony. And with that, I want to recognize the ranking member, Mr. Van Hollen, for his opening remarks.

Brinson Paolini fired four rounds in the 60s en route to claiming a maiden professional victory at Le Vaudreuil Golf Challenge, in just his third start on the Challenge Tour.
The American kept his cool in the heat of the final day at Golf PGA France du Vaudreuil, carding a solitary bogey in his final 54 holes en route to an impressive score of 19 under par, at the end of a week disrupted by the weather.
For much of the final day it had looked like Sihwan Kim would be the recipient of the trophy at the inaugural staging of this event. However his four shot lead with 18 holes to go evaporated after the turn, and a three putt bogey on the last cost him a place in a play-off, as he fell into a share of second place alongside Spain's Adrian Otaegui.
Paolini was clearly overjoyed with his victory though, and it comes as no surprise for a man who has enjoyed great amateur success the other side of the Atlantic.
He started the week playing on invites and unsure where he would be teeing it up next, but this triumph sees him earn full playing rights on the Challenge Tour for the rest of the year. He is also now handily placed to kick on and perhaps earn a European Tour card come the end of the season.
"It is an incredible feeling, I don't think it will sink in until tomorrow to be honest," explained Paolini. "To get a win in my third start as a professional is something that I could not have even dreamed of happening, so I'm very happy.
"Switzerland was my first event and I finished second and was in contention there, which did a lot for my confidence, to know that I can play and compete out here at the highest level. I always enter tournaments trying to win, but it is whether you believe that you can win or not, which is a different battle. But I believed I could this week, and I'm just very grateful and fortunate to be here."
Paolini has been decorated throughout his amateur career, achieving great success in his four years at Duke University before his graduation last month, and being used to playing two rounds in one day proved useful to the Virginia native.
"I thought playing the rest of the third round on top of the final 18 was an advantage for me," said Paolini. "Coming from college golf we play 36 hole days a lot, and so I thought that could help. That's how I approached it, and when I came out and birdied my first two holes this morning, that set the tone for the day, and I was fortunate to keep it going.
"I normally don't look at leaderboards, so I checked after we finished the third round, but not at all in the final round until I two putted the 17th for par, which was when my caddie turned to me and said that I might want to take a look. When he said that I knew we had a good chance, and my goal was to make eagle down the last, which I thought would be good enough for a play-off. I was fortunate therefore that a birdie turned out good enough for me to get the win."
Le Vaudreuil Golf Challenge Champion could not keep the smile from his face upon being presented with an impressive first professional trophy, and upon the realisation that he now has a place to play for the rest of the year.
"I have no idea what my schedule will be going forward, as before I was just trying to get a few starts here and there, so it is an amazing feeling to know that I have status here and have somewhere to play. I've got a good chance now of perhaps getting my European Tour card too, which would be incredible, so I'll sit down tonight and figure it all out."
Through nine holes of the final round, and for much of the second and third days, it had looked like the trophy would end up in the hands of Kim, who led by at least four strokes at numerous points.
However five shots dropped round the turn saw the Korean fall a couple of shots behind the leading players, and although he bounced back with birdies at the 15th and 17th, a costly bogey at the last saw him lose out.
"I'm pretty disappointed with my back nine," admitted Kim. "I started hooking it a bit and was trying to compensate, so I was doing a lot of things that I shouldn't have been. I missed a bunch of greens, and didn't make too many putts, but I gave myself a chance and it just wasn't my day. Maybe next time.
"I knew that there were so many birdie holes out there, so I just had to focus and perform, but it just didn't happen. I felt the nerves a little bit, and then with the wind the course was a lot tougher, but congrats to Paolini. He played a great round today, and he deserves it."
Alongside Kim in a share of second place was Otaegui, who carded three birdies on his front nine en route to the top of the leaderboard as Kim dropped back. However a card bereft of red numbers on the final nine holes, as well as a bogey at 14, saw him finish one shot shy of a play-off.
England's Philip Archer (67) finished in a tie for fourth in France, thanks in part to two consecutive eagles from the seventh on Sunday, the same mark as Dylan Frittelli (68), Daan Huizing (68) and Duncan Stewart (68), all of whom finished at 17 under par.
Edouard Espana (72) played in the final group alongside Kim, and he finished as top Frenchman, in a tie for tenth at 15 under. Meanwhile compatriot, and amateur, Clément Sordet finished two shots further adrift after a stunning albatross on the par five 12th, his third hole of the final round.

Lorain County Common Pleas Court judge Kosma G lavas is expected to issue a written ruling Sept. 5 based on arguments presented by both sides Aug. 22. The hearing was scheduled nearly a month ago after Glavas declined Anderson's request for judgement in the case without a hearing. Anderson is seeking an injunction against mayor John Higgins, city council, treasurer Kathleen Litkovitz and auditor John Dunn to prevent them from naming the Cleveland law firm of Squire, Sanders and Dempsey as bond counsel. On the recommendation of Higgins, council appointed the law firm to sell $500,000 in bonds for the renovation of city hall at a July 14 council meeting. Anderson contends state law gives him the authority to name a bond counsel while Higgins and council claim they have the right because of Anderson's inexperience in handling bond matters. In addition, Anderson said he favors the Cleveland law firm of Calfcc, Halter and Griswold, which he said will cl Squires, Sanders and Dempsey. Council said it pre! firm because of previously satisfactory dealings with the company. Higgins, council members and other administrators named in the suit have been angered by it and a letter sent to them by Anderson prior to the July 14 council meeting. The letter warned of pending legal action by Anderson against them if they approved Higgins's recommendation. Many said they regarded the letter as a threat. Keeping tabs: city hall callers will get personal attention from mayor's line by GLEN MILLER News-Times reporter There arc days when mayor John Higgins and his secretary Sally Cornwcll gel a bad case of "telephonitis." It's nol lhat ihey mind answering the calls, but often the phones just don't stop ringing from the time they walk into the office until 5 p.m. Their call count is accurate. Corn- well keeps a record of every one, including who called and when. Usually, the mayor's office gets between 25 and 35 calls a day. But between them, they've answered as many as 63 calls in one day, most of them complaints, questions and even demands for instant service — by the mayor himself. Less than half are city business. Many residents don't know who or where to call, so they often use the mayor's office as a kind of a "call for action center," sometimes a sounding board. Some calls involve questions or complaints about city services. Although they can be frustrating, Higgins doesn't mind them as much as he does those he can't help resolve or over which he has no control. Take the time a woman called to complain that there was a rambunctious raccoon in her backyard. She demanded that Higgins — not the police, fire department or a county animal control officer — come over and get rid of it "right now." Higgins recommend calling an exterminator or the county animal control officer, although a mischiev ous thought did cross his mind. "Sometimes, what you're thinking and what you say arc different things," he explained. "I thought well, maybe I better take another one over to keep it company." That would have been politically incorrect. And then there was the time a woman called to complain something was dead in her house. A few things ran through the mayor's mind, one of which he wisely didn't ask. "1 wondered about when the last time was she saw her husband, but I didn't know if she was married and I never want to be offensive to people," he admitted. He didn't ask. Instead, he advised her to call the Amhcrsl police. He never did find out what caused the smell. At least 20 calls a week are requests for other phone numbers people can't find in the telephone directory or arc loo lazy to look up, like the numbers of ihe street or water departments. They arc listed. Often, callers want to know the name of so and so in the Ohio Attorney General's Office, the county commissioner's office or even the U.S. capitol. Cornwcll tries to keep a complete up-to-date list of phone numbers of key county, state and federal offices, but not every government employee. "If we did, we'd have to have a Rollodex six feet round, maybe more. You'd have to have something you could turn with a crank," CONTINUED on page 2 Mayor John Higgins fields one of dozens of calls, both unusal and unusual, received at his office daily. If his secretary can't answer the phone, the mayor often grabs the ringing line himself. Ladies lounge in luxury every two years by GLEN MILLER News-Times reporter Every two years, nine Marion L. Steele High School alums leave their husbands at home and their worries behind for a week of reminiscing, sightseeing, card playing and enjoyment of each others' company. Since 1993, Amherstonians Sylvia Kovach Zilch, Lani Cen- drosky Hart, Anne Firago Harmych and Marsha Hution Dun- lop have been taking seaside vacations every two years with five women who also graduated with them in the Class of '63. They are Pal Kocsis Kinzer of Lorain, Donna Miller Prichard of Lima, Judy Godspeed Willard of Versailles, Ky., Karen Chum Norris of Columbia, Md., and Jane Plott Cobos, of Bryan, Texas. The trips started in 1993 with a gathering in Ocean City, Md. after the women decided all the work and effort they put into organizing a 30th high school .reunion wasn't worth it, especially when the turnout was small. | It was disheartening to say the least. "We just got burnt out and decided we didn't want the hassle The nine classmates gather ip front of a marina at Camden, Me. while sightseeing near Booth Bay Harbor. From left in the top row are.Donna Miller Prichard, Lani Cendro- sky Harj, Pat Kocsis Kinzer, Marsha Hutton Dunlap, Jane Plott Cobos. At front from left are Anne Firago Harmych, Judy Goodspeed Willard, Karen Chum Norris, and Sylvia Kovach Zilch. any more bul enjoyed being together because wc all have something in common," Zilch explained. 1 The solution has become" a tradition lhal has lifted their spirits and eased their minds. The nine women, who decided they wanted lo stay in close touch, thought it would be better to lake vacations together. . Husbands are forbidden..They stay at. home, work or do the house work, according to Zilch, the owner of Zilch Florists. "None of us want our husbands on these trips because they arc an escape from real life and act as therapeutic renewals for us," she adds. "(There's) nobody to wait on or answer to." So far, the vacations have been to seaside resorts every other year. In 1995, Zilch says they laid in the sun, loafed, shopped till they dropped and played poker into wee hours of the morning in a rented beach condo al Top Sail Beach, N.C. This July, they shopped again, went sightseeing and look a windjammer cruise while visiting Booth Bay Harbor, ME. Two years from now, they'll be sightseeing in Galveston, Texas. Some day, they plan to take an inland vacation, but that's four years in the future when Zilch thinks more of them arc likely lo be grandmothers. So far, only three of them — Dun- lab, Prichard and Norris, are. They haven't started to plan for the 2001 vacation, although a few have wjsh lists. Dunlap kind of likes the idea of venturing to the Sedona Valley near Phoenix, Az. but will settle for the ocean. "Everybody seems to like the water. It's relaxing but we're CONTINUED on page 3 A planner could aid in city's future by GLEN MILLER News-Times reporter The need to control growth, update cily development codes and secure grants for revitalization and other projects has prompted the city to consider hiring a consulting planner. Pending city council approval, mayor John Higgins said he hopes to contract with a Lakewood planning service within the next month. He will introduce his plan lo council al its Sept. 8 meeting. The need for a planner is long overdue considering the city's growth and need to updaic its building or zoning codes, some of which are outdated, he explained. Rather than hire a full-lime or part-time planner, Higgins hopes to save money by contracting for one on an as-needed basis. "It's kind of a try-and-see thing," he explained. 'This way, we can see just how busy he is and how much demand there is for his services before we consider something in the future." Higgins said neither he, council members or other administrators are experts on planning, grant writing or how to update city codes, some of which he thinks are "obsolete." A person with grant writing skills is badly needed. Avon Lake, a comparably-sized city, has received more than $2 million in stale, federal and private grant money while Amherst has received 533,000 this year. "No one here has the expertise. If you don't dot all the I's and cross all the T's, they'll get pitched out just on form alone," Higgins said. The grants will provide money for revitalization, including the renovation of the second floor of city hall and older downtown buildings. Changes in development codes are equally important because those which regulate zoning and planning within the cily have not been significantly updated since 1973. Amherst has been growing steadily since 1990, but Higgins said no major effort has been made to control development by updating zoning. Even though new home construction in the city appears lo a have slacked off, the revisions arc needed to ensure proper development To dale, home building within the city limits is aboul 40 percent less than last year, according to the cily. "We wanted things to be more controlled. A planner is the person who can give us advice on how to accomplish this," Hjggins said. The decline in home building is partially due to an Octr^er 1996 to April 1997 ban that was initiated in an effort to update city storm water drainage control plans. Higgins said he has no idea how many homes and new businesses may be built in the future now that the ban has been lifted. Currently, the planning commission only deals with the traffic impact of development. Higgins thinks it should do more because factors such as sewers, utilities and fire control also need to be. considered. Sewers are especially important.

ENC Episcopalians to choose new bishop
The Rev. Clifton Daniel III, bishop of the Episcopal Church�s East Carolina diocese since 1997, has resigned to become bishop provisional of the diocese of Pennsylvania. His resignation becomes effective Feb. 28.
�I do love and treasure our Diocese of East Carolina and count it as a privilege to serve as your bishop for these years,� Daniels said in a statement posted recently at the diocese�s website. �I have confidence in the leadership of the standing committee going forward and in the skills and abilities of a wonderful and dedicated staff at Diocesan House.�
Since the diocese has no coadjutor, or deputy bishop with the right of succession, Daniel�s vacancy will be filled by a church election. In the interim, a six-member standing committee of Episcopal priests and lay members will handle the diocese�s day-to-day affairs.
The diocese will form a search committee to screen candidates. A new bishop will then be chosen by an assembly of priests and lay delegates from Episcopal parishes from across the eastern half of North Carolina.
Daniel graduated from UNC in 1969 and earned a master of divinity in 1972 from Virginia Theological Seminary. He was ordained in 1973 and served parishes in Kinston, Ahoskie, Dayton, Ohio, and Bristol, R.I., before being elected bishop coadjutor of East Carolina in 1996. He became full bishop the following year.
In Pennsylvania, Daniel will serve the diocese which covers the city of Philadelphia and four surrounding counties, with more than 22,000 members and 155 congregations.

Carrie Underwood and Mike Fisher are one step closer to tying the knot.
A rep for the country singer confirmed to Access Hollywood that she is engaged to her NHL star boyfriend.
"I'm happy to confirm that Carrie Underwood is engaged to Mike Fisher, and the couple couldn't be happier," the rep told Access.
As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, the singer said she was at first hesitant about being set up with the Ottawa Senators center.
"We had a friend, one of my band members was trying to hook us up," she said during an appearance on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" in November. "He was like, 'I have this guy for you,' I was like, 'Oh, that's great. What does he do?' 'He plays hockey.'"
Carrie also noted during the interview that dating someone long distance has its drawbacks.
"I love Canada, but that is a long distance relationship," she explained, "We see each other more than people think we see each other. We don't go out publicly, we just do our thing."
The couple has yet to set a date for their big day.

UFC Super Bowl Weekend 2014 Card Headlined by Dominick Cruz vs. Renan Barao, Jose Aldo vs. Ricardo Lamas
("Let's keep it goin' for Paula Sack, folks. She's beautiful, talented, *and* she can burp the alphabet in two languages." / Photo via Getty)
The UFC confirmed last night that UFC 169 — the promotion's Super Bowl Weekend card that's scheduled for February 1st, 2014, in Newark — will be headlined by a pair of title fights in the bantamweight and featherweight divisions.
In the main event, bantamweight champion Dominick Cruz will emerge from a 28-month hibernation to face Renan Barao, the interim champ who's been steady wrecking fools in Cruz's absence. UFC president Dana White has "made it pretty clear" that if Cruz has to pull out of this title unification bout with another injury, he'll finally be stripped of his belt and Barao will be named the official champion.
In the co-main event, 145-pound champ (and Barao's Nova Uniao homeboy) Jose Aldo will attempt to make his sixth UFC title defense against top contender Ricardo Lamas, who's 4-0 in the UFC including stoppage wins against Cub Swanson and Erik Koch. Aldo is coming off his four-round shredding of Chan Sung Jung at UFC 163, which gave the Brazilian his 16th consecutive victory overall, as well as a broken foot.

Reliable passive fire protection for proper productivity and quality
The Sakhalin-I project is a consortium that produces oil and gas on Sakhalin Island as well as offshore from three fields, Chayvo, Odoptu and Arkutun-Dagi, in the Okhotsk Sea (located in the Russian Far East). A production-sharing agreement was concluded between the Sakhalin-I consortium, the Russian Federation and the Sakhalin municipal government. The consortium is managed and operated by Exxon Neftegas Ltd (ENL). In 2003, the first Sakhalin-I well was drilled. Six of the world's ten record-breaking extended-reach drilling wells have been drilled at the fields belonging to the project. On 27 August 2012, ENL beat its previous record by completing the Z-44 Chayvo well. This ERD well reaches a total depth of 12,376 meters (40,604 ft.), making it the deepest well in the world. The project is estimated to cost a total of USD 12 billion, which makes it the largest direct investment from foreign sources in Russia.
Quick and productive
Sakhwest, one of the contractors for scaffolding, blasting and fireproofing on site, initially opted for PITT-CHAR® XP intumescent coating according to Exxon Neftegas's project specifications. Their plural component sprayer was not able to provide good productivity or quality because of harsh on-site conditions. Sakhwest therefore looked for a reliable sprayer that would help reduce start-up times, boost productivity and provide more efficiency while spraying. Proper technical assistance and training were also essential. Graco proposed XM PFP (Passive Fire Protection) technology as a solution for material applications. Since Sakhwest was also seeking to reduce the costs of possible quality failures, the key benefits for the end user were a local support network and availability of spare parts. Russian-speaking support by Graco played a major role in the final decision.
Expectations met
The operators noted the ease of operation. The results therefore fully met the customer's expectations. After proper unit adjustments and additional training, PITT-CHAR® XP material was heated up relatively quickly and the fan could be opened less than one hour after start-up (even in cold weather conditions). "Ultimately, XM PFP enabled us to achieve a better performance rate, while at the same time keeping the quality consistent with no additional issues", states Vadim Dolgov, Chief Specialist at Sakhwest.
Development of the Sakhalin-I project
It is estimated that the fields will yield 2.3 billion barrels of oil and 17.1 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. Current oil production is calculated at 250,000 barrels per day. The wells extend more than five miles underwater from the Sea of Okhotsk to the Odoptu oil reservoir. Future project plans call for the further development of natural gas resources in Chayvo that are not associated with current oil production. These development plans will call for the drilling of additional gas wells and the expansion of existing onshore and offshore facilities. This project will result in expanded gas sales to domestic and export markets.
