Frequently Asked Questions
Why do trees need to be trimmed?
Ameren Illinois trims trees to minimize the likelihood of safety hazards and power outages. During high winds, strong thunderstorms or snow or ice storms, limbs and even whole trees can fall on electric lines, tearing down energized lines and equipment. Broken limbs can cause outages just by making the right kind of contact with electric lines and equipment.

 Usually, when homes are built an easement is granted at the time of development that allows utilities the ability to access and maintain their equipment. Ameren Illinois may therefore hold easement rights on the land on which power lines and poles are located. Ameren Illinois requests landowners not to encroach on the easements with trees or buildings that may disrupt the operation of the lines.
Why did you trim so much of my tree?
Faster growing trees will require more clearance than slower growing trees. Smaller, slower growing trees will require less trimming and are more suitable to be planted closer to electric lines. Ameren Illinois takes into consideration what type of species the tree is, how fast the tree will grow, how close it is to the electric lines, and the type of voltage running through those lines. The required distance between vegetation and power lines varies from line to line depending on the voltage, local ordinances, tree characteristics and the tree owner.
Why don't you trim less and come back more often?
Ameren Illinois contracts with more than 300 tree-trimming crews who work year round on Ameren Illinois easements. In determining our maintenance cycle, we consider our objective of providing safe, reliable service, as well as the costs involved. The costs of maintaining the electrical system, including tree-trimming costs, are recovered in our rates. It's a balance of providing you a safe, dependable electrical system while keeping costs within reason.
Why can't you shape trees while trimming them clear of lines?
The directional pruning method we use is endorsed by the International Society of Arboriculture. Directional pruning, also known as "lateral trimming," removes only those branches that conflict with power lines. Rather than cutting limbs back to unsightly and unnatural stubs, branches are pruned back to the center of the trunk where trees normally shed them. Future tree growth is directed away from the power lines.

 Directionally pruned trees are less susceptible to disease and insects, and the overall structure of the tree is stronger and more resistant to high winds and ice. Although the shape has been altered, it is recommended over topping or rounding of trees, which tends to promote quick re-growth of small, weakly attached shoots.

 We work to provide you with safe, reliable power, and we have a responsibility to do that in an environmentally sound way.
Why can't you put the line underground?
In older neighborhoods with overhead lines, placing lines underground is difficult and expensive. Many trees are already well established. Placing power lines underground would require Ameren Illinois to dig into the roots of the trees, possibly causing immediate harm and making them susceptible to disease.
How can the public help to reduce the frequency of outages?
First, understand that our tree trimming service is an integral part of our goal to provide you with safe, reliable electric service.

 Second, try to keep an open mind when our line clearance crews explain why trimming is occurring.

 Third, by allowing our contractor to use the proper trimming techniques your trees remain healthy, and the regrowth from the tree will tend to interfere less with power lines.

 Finally, if you are planting new trees, remember to plant the right tree in the right place. See our Tree Planting Tips for more information.
How does Ameren Illinois decide when to prune?
We have a routine maintenance program for trees and brush growth around power lines. In cases where tree conditions are worse, a line that begins to show an unusual number of tree-related outages may be trimmed sooner than originally anticipated.
Can I prune trees myself?
Never attempt to prune trees near power lines yourself. Only qualified line clearance tree contractors are allowed to work within a minimum of 10 feet of high voltage lines. If there is any question, call Ameren Illinois at 800.755.5000 for an inspection of your tree and line situation.

 Service drops - the lines that deliver electricity from Ameren Illinois power poles to the customer's meters - are relatively low voltage (typically 120/240) and are not normally pruned by Ameren Illinois' contractors. Trees near this line are the property owner's responsibility. See an illustration that includes information on service drops.

 If you are concerned about tree growth near your service drop you may call and schedule an appointment to have your service drop disconnected in order to have the trees near this line trimmed safely. Please call Ameren Illinois at 800.755.5000 to request a service drop disconnection. We recommend that you hire a professional tree service to do this trimming.

 Phone and cable company lines, those usually found in the lowest position on a pole, do not have clearance requirements, because they do not carry any significant electrical current.
Can Ameren Illinois recommend a company in my area for tree work away from power lines?
We cannot recommend a particular company, but we do encourage homeowners to make sure the company they choose has a qualified arborist on staff, is insured for personal property, liability and workman's compensation, and is affiliated with an arboricultural organization.
What if I have a complaint about your tree trimming policies or procedures?
If you live in Ameren Illinois' service area, you may have received a letter and a Tree Trimming Guide about tree trimming in your area.

 You do not need to respond to the notice, but if you have any questions or concerns about the work to be done, please call 800.755.5000.

 If you live in Ameren's Illinois service area, you may have received a post card about tree trimming in your area.

 You do not need to respond to the notice, but if you have any questions or concerns about the tree trimming work to be done, call Ameren Illinois at 800.755.5000.

 Complaints received by Illinois municipalities or unincorporated areas will be addressed through Ameren's Public and Legislative Affairs area and legal counsel in accordance with provisions of paragraph (3), (4), and (5) Section 8-505.1, as amended, of the Illinois Public Utilities Act.
I know about your programs to trim trees - do you also have programs that support planting new trees?
Ameren Illinois has supported a number of programs to promote tree-planting and public education:

 The Ameren Illinois Environmental Connections Program provides grants for selected projects that enhance the environment in communities Ameren Illinois serves.

 This program awarded approximately $40,000 in grants to community organizations in the Missouri cities of Caruthersville, Dexter, Mexico, Boonville, Prairie Home and Excelsior Spring, along with the East Central Region of the Missouri Community Forest Council. The Illinois cities of and in the Illinois cities of Alton, Harrisburg, Carrier Mills, Peoria, Galesburg, Bloomington and Edwardsville, along with the Southwestern Illinois Regional Forestry Council were also awarded grants. Communities that received funding in previous years include Eureka, Jefferson City and Lake Ozark in Missouri, and Carbondale, Mattoon, Salem, Petersburg and Taylorville in Illinois.

 Ameren also contributes $25,000 each year to Forest ReLeaf of Missouri to sponsor Project CommuniTree - a pioneer 10-acre nursery operating in Berkeley, Mo., where trees are grown for planting on public property and on land owned by nonprofit organizations.

 Individuals, organizations, community groups and municipalities are eligible to apply to Forest ReLeaf for the trees, which are available on a first-come, first-served basis each spring and fall. Recipients are asked to care for the trees for at least three years after planting. (For more information, call toll-free 888.4.RELEAF or in St. Louis, call 314.533.LEAF.)

Can you offer any advice for planting trees to avoid being in conflict with power lines?
If you are planting a tree, keep these hints in mind:

 Avoid planting trees directly beneath power lines or too close to electrical equipment. This will help guarantee healthy growth in a safe area.

 Consider planting trees of a slower growth or limited height variety, such as crab apples, hawthorns, ornamental pears or cherries.

 Check for overhead and underground utility lines before working on trees.

 For more information on tree planting, request a copy of Ameren's tree planting brochure.

Kayli Vee Levitan's best tea spots in Cape Town
Taking time out for yourself in Cape Town can take many forms. You can take a walk on the beach, enjoy a spa treatment, tuck into gourmet food and wine or sip on a perfect brew with a few sweet treats to delight you at high tea. Often the perfect way to catch up with friends or loved ones, high tea not only offers an afternoon of exciting new teas and treats that delight the eyes and palate, you can also enjoy all of this while admiring the splendour of your surroundings. I sampled a few high teas on offer around the city and found a few gems.

GREEN BAY, WI (LEARFIELD-WSAU)Safety Morgan Burnett appears to be the next Green Bay Packer in line for a long-term contract. C-B-S Sports says the Packers are trying to quote, "hammer out" a deal with Burnett – who was one of just two N-F-L players to be on the field for every defensive snap last season.
He led Green Bay in tackles with 123. Burnett is in the final year of his rookie contract, and is scheduled to make just over one-point-three million dollars.

Bryan Bussert, Tax Manager at
Baker Tilly, provides the following information:
Do Not Shred
1. Charitable contribution letters or acknowledgement documents provided by recipient organization should be reviewed upon receipt (to ensure they include required language for income tax deduction) and retained for at least 3 years
2. Retirement plan transaction statements which summarize rollovers or conversions should be kept indefinitely
3. Investment confirmations or statements which reflect cost basis (i.e., purchase price) for investments, including closing/settlement statements for purchases of real property, should be retained at least through the end of the 3rd year following the sale or disposition of the investment/property
4. Tax returns should generally be kept as long as available, secure space will permit; that being said, income tax returns should be retained at least 3 years, but preferably 6 years (due to IRS audit time frames), and gift tax returns should be kept indefinitely, as the estate representative will need at death
5. Individuals with businesses should keep indefinitely records related to inventory, capital purchases (e.g., machinery, equipment), leases, contracts, insurance coverage, and financial statements
6. Enduring documents (e.g., wills, trusts, deeds, life insurance policies, marriage certificates, divorce decrees, business formation documents and agreements with business partners) should rarely be destroyed
1. Bank, brokerage, and other general statements can usually be shredded after retaining for 3 years, unless needed to substantiate certain deposits or payments, cost basis of investments, warranties, or some other purpose
2. Many bills, invoices, deposit slips, canceled checks, receipts, and other sales and expense records can be destroyed after keeping for a 3 year period
3. Tax documents such as W-2s, 1099s, 1098s showing deductible/creditable mortgage and/or educational expenses, Schedule K-1s, or other items which may show tax withholding should be kept for at least 3 years, although some of these documents (e.g., K-1s for investments) may be retained longer for alternative uses
4. Medical and dental expense statements can generally be destroyed after 3 years, unless needed for a non-tax purpose, including treatment or insurance reasons
5. Pay stubs can be shredded after 1 or 2 years, assuming there are no discrepancies when reconciled with annual Form W-2

What The Papers Say - 26 June
More transfer talk in Wednesday's papers.
The views on this page are taken from the local and national media and do not necessarily reflect the views of Everton.
Everton are unlikely to pursue any interest in Spartak Moscow winger Aiden McGeady, according to Wednesday's Liverpool Echo.
The Republic of Ireland international had been linked with a move to Merseyside earlier this week but the Blues are now claimed to be exploring alternative options. Japanese playmaker Keisuke Honda's name is again mentioned, while recruiting a defender and a goalkeeper are said to be Roberto Martinez's priorities.
In the same article, former Blues boss Howard Kendall believes that Everton fans will enjoy watching the attractive style of football that Martinez will implement next season.
A move for Honda is also touted in the Daily Mail. The 27-year-old is being considered as a replacement for Marouane Fellaini should the Belgian depart Everton this summer.
Meanwhile, the Daily Mirror is reporting that Wigan striker Arouna Kone has rebuffed the chance to join Norwich City and Swansea City in preference of a switch to Goodison Park. The Ivory Coast international, who is also a target for West Brom, is believed to have a £6.5million release clause in his contract. The same story also features in the Daily Mail.

David Caldwell In the News
David Caldwell has a proven track record representing you.
When the Olive Blvd. Transportation Development District failed to deliver on its promises, David was featured standing up for fiscal responsibility in Fox 2′s You Paid For It report by Elliott Davis on November 21, 2010.
Straight ahead on You Paid For It, a dream project in West County becomes a nightmare. Why an Olive Blvd. beautification may cost tax payers $9 million for one mile of work.
A troubled West County beautification project with an ugly price tag for tax payers. We head to Creve Coeur to shine a bright light on this deal in tonight's You Paid For It.
This beautification project was supposed to transform this stretch of Olive Blvd. in Creve Coeur from just a dull, dry road to a shining example of tax dollars at work. Instead officials are stuck trying to regroup and figure out just which way to proceed on this beautification dream that's turned into a nightmare.
I talked to Creve Coeur Mayor Harold Dielmann. He also sits on the board in charge of the projects.
Elliott Davis: What was the initial budget?
Mayor Dielmann: $5 million
Davis: So what do you anticipate it's going to cost?
Dielmann: $9 million
Davis voice over: And how much beautification would you now get for that $9 million?
Davis: How many miles of this road are you improving?
Dielmann: Approximately a mile.
Not only will this deal cost almost double what it was supposed to, it's several years behind schedule. And some of what was promised may not happen. A mile of Olive was supposed to be widened. That may not happen now. The median down the middle of the street is iffy.
Creve Coeur resident David Caldwell says you were supposed to have new lighting all along Olive along with the new sidewalks.
Caldwell: They have torn down streetlights that they have not put in money in the project to replaces.
Davis voice over: Caldwell criticized the plan when it was first rolled off the City Hall drawing board saying it was ill-conceived, ill-planned, and under-funded.
Caldwell: I don't think they engaged the proper amount of professional input.
The project is funded through an Olive Transportation Development District or TDD. Sales taxes generated from businesses and customers in the area were put into a fund to pay for the beautification. Things went wrong from the get-go. They couldn't widen the street as planned. That affected the new sidewalk. They found they couldn't bury the unsightly utility lines after all. And everything ended up costing more than the city thought.
Dielmann: The whole project has changed totally since its begin and that's why it's behind schedule and over budget.
Davis: Somebody didn't do all their homework.
Dielmann: We did our homework, but when you change the rules it changes the project.
Still the mayor is confident the city will eventually be finished with the project- with a lot more time and, of course, a lot more of your money.
Davis: Right now you see it as a failure?
Caldwell: Yes, I see it as a failure.
Davis: You think overall this thing has been a good deal for tax payers?
Dielmann: Yes, they're going to have a nice road when it's all done.
Davis: How do you answer critics who say this project has been a disaster?
Dielmann: Well, it hasn't been a disaster …(cut off)
To have your say here's the person to call- Creve Coeur Mayor Harold Dielmann- 314-432-6000. Tell him what you think. After all, You Paid For It.
So much to say and so little time to say it- and then it gets edited. That's a fact, not a complaint. We thank Elliot Davis for covering this matter. He listened to both sides and did his homework. Mayor Dielmann and CCV have plenty of time and opportunity to make their case without being on TV. Mayor Dielmann would like to explain in detail the problems caused by MoDOT and the delays caused by the I-64 shutdown, among other things. And we would have liked to have heard the completion of his explanation why the project was not a disaster, which was cut off in mid-sentence. Probably he would point out a few things which did get done. CCV would like to talk more about the sidewalk to nowhere and the high overhead cost of doing anything via a TDD. Some would like to talk about the timeline and all the political misdeeds of the project, such as the eminent domain threats and anonymous mailers which disrupted the city for months.
Creve Coeur residents deserve complete transparency on the Olive TDD now, as the city officials who sit on the TDD board recently pushed through yet another plan to downsize the project and keep spending money. There is approximately $2 million of the original $5 million which has not been spent. Ward 4 Council Members Laura Bryant and Jeanne Rhoades wrote in the November Creve Coeur Newsletter, Given these recently acknowledged problems, along with the lack of funding and necessary right-of-way, it may be high time to seriously consider an exit strategy for the Olive Blvd. TDD, and look for a way to best utilize the remaining funds, pay off all bonds and then shut it down. CCV agrees. If $3 million has been spent, and spending another $2 million is just a step along the way to spending $9 million- and we will bet anything that it will go higher- is that what Creve Coeur residents want to do to get, as Mayor Dielmann says, a nice road when it is all done?

Abba Macarius said, "If we remember the evil that others have done to us, we shut down our ability to remember God."
There are many ways to misunderstand the Christian faith – certainly far more ways to get it wrong than to get it right. One of the deepest misunderstandings of our culture is the popular concept of Christian morality. The history of this is its own complex story – how Christians ceased to know the inner life and created an externalized form of Christianity. When I think on these things it seems to me that reality is often quite the opposite of what people imagine to be the case.
It is imagined that a Church which engages in a great deal of ritual (such as the Orthodox) is concerned only with externals – when, in fact, it is precisely in such a Church that the inner life receives the most attention. Ritual is not an end – but a means.
On the other hand, it is imagined that Churches which disparage ritual are inherently more concerned with the inner life, when nothing could be farther from the truth. There is a psychology of moral thought – but no proper understanding of what actually constitutes the inner life. Christ did not die in order to introduce us to psychology.
Rightly understood – the moral life is an inner obedience to the commandments of Christ through union with Him. In the teachings of the fathers such an inner life is not a matter of following rules, but is a manner of seeking true existence. To live out of communion with God is to live a false existence – one that is verging on non-existence.
This raises the importance of the inner life and the state of the heart. To be angry is more than breaking a rule – it is a breaking of communion and a dalliance with death. To remember the evil that others have done, as St. Macarius has noted, is to hinder our remembrance of God. In the words of St. James, "The anger of man does not work the righteousness of God" (James 1:20).
The same could be said about other sinful states of the heart – envy, lust, greed, etc. These are not actions or thoughts which violate rules – but states of the heart that violate our very existence. Between conformity to the image of God (by grace) and hell – there is no middle ground.
Those who have known this and understood it in their deep heart – have spared no effort to find salvation and healing in Christ, who alone can restore the heart to its proper state. The ritual of the Church is nothing more than learning how to rightly honor those things that should be held in honor. It is a gradual resetting of the heart.
No amount of analysis, study or meditation can substitute for the proper healing of our heart – nor can the intellectual acceptance of certain ideas. Such an "inner life" is still life on the surface.
St. Macarius offers this statement on the heart:
The heart itself is but a small vessel, yet dragons are there, and there are also lions; there are poisonous beasts and all the treasures of evil. But there too is God, the angels, the life and the kingdom, the light and the apostles, the heavenly cities and the treasuries of grace—all things are there. (H.43.7)

The quote by St. Macarius is so true! It is also an indication of how wrong we are to believe we are better than others and ignore that someone who has done wrong is capable to find healing and salvation, whilst us, who might perceive ourselves as righteous are also capable of letting the "dragons" lay waste on our hearts!
Thank you, Fr. Stephen, for such an important reminder. It's easy to be focused on the rules and stay distracted from the state of one's heart. This is just exactly where our enemy wants us to be.
Father, bless.
Thank you for this clarification and reminder.
Thank you Father for this post, it was much needed for me at this time. A question for you though: How do we begin to forgive the evil done to us, and to repent of our resentment, when that evil is as serious as murder or abuse? Practically, how can we even begin to cleanse our hearts of these things and find God in the midst of the dragons of the heart?
I am reminded by what our priest instructed us to do on forgiveness Sunday. Ask forgiveness of each other but do not offer it to each other in response to the asking.
My forgiveness is a weak, ephemeral business, rooted mostly in the passions, unlike the forgiveness of Christ which goes to the very root. Can I accept that God is at work, attempting to heal and redeem those who have wronged me, however hideous their sins and crimes may be?
In accepting that God is truly merciful to all I can begin to repent with the hope of forgiveness. If I do not beleive that God has forgiven someone else, why then should my heart acknowledge my own sin? Am I not rather likely to become the servant with the one talent who says "I knew you were a hard master….."
Fr. Stephen, could you explain a little of what the heart is? I suspect that popular Christian culture has trivialized the word "heart," just as it has the word "person." So when you speak of the heart or the inner life, I think I lack the background to understand the word with anything like the fullness you intend it to have.
This is a wonderful post. I appreciate your defense of the Rituals of the Church.
To Reid about the Heart:
In the Glossary to the Philokalia I found the following, which may or may not be helpful – I hope it will!
Heart (kardia): not simply the physical organ but the spiritual centre of man's being, man as made in the image of God, his deepest and truest self, or the inner shrine, to be entered only through sacrifice and death, in which the mystery of the union between the divine and the human is comnsummated. 'I called with my whole heart' says the psalmist, that is, with body, soul and spirit' (John Climacus, The Ladder of Divine Ascent, step 28). 'Heart' has thus an all-embracing significance: 'prayer of the heart' means prayer not just of the emotions and affections, but of the whole person, including the body.
In a 2002 interview in the journal Road to Emmaus, in which he also touches on prayer, Metropolitan Kallistos says "As to the question of the mind in the heart, I would not recommend people to start by thinking about that. I would say, start with the Jesus Prayer itself. Do not think about 'Where is my mind, where is my heart?' … Think rather about Jesus… Concentrate on the actual saying of the prayer and all else will follow from that in the way that God wishes and when He wishes."
Jane's quotes are quite good – I could not improve on them. Generally, it is the truest part of ourselves – but this is something that we do not normally know, because our true self is "hid with Christ in God." Thus, as Bishop Kallistos says, we begin with prayer and keeping the commandments and calling on God – and being steadfast in the sacraments of the Church. In time, as we grow in Christ, we begin to know more and more of our true heart, or even, as Fr. Sophrony describes it, "the deep heart." It is not the emotions, not our thoughts, but deeper than these. The great tragedy is that modern man does not know that he has a heart – our "anthropology" is extremely shallow in the modern world. We've become fairly reductionist, so that we have a caricature of what it is to be human. Christ is not only God, but is also the example of what it is to be fully human. Thus we turn to Him and call on His name, and He will make the heart known to us as we are patient and humble. And by patient I mean something that may well take years. This is rare patience in the modern world.
We begin by offering to God our will. As Fr. Thomas Hopko says, sometimes we have to say, "I want to want to…" Only grace can do these things in our hearts. What we have to learn is how to dispose ourselves to the grace of God. Thanksgiving, humility, patience – these are key.
Fr. Stephen and Jane, thank you for your answers.
Fr Stephen,
How can one begin to learn real humility?
Thank you.
The best answer I could offer would be to begin by striving to give thanks in all things. Fr. Sophrony said that thanksgiving and humility are the same thing – to be humble is to live being aware that everything we are and have is a gift and not of our own making. When we refuse to give thanks we are wrapping ourself in pride and offering our judgment (and condemnation) of God's gifts. It is a way that leads to death. I have known a man who gave thanks to God for all things – and I never saw him waver. It was a great and profound experience to know such a person. In hindsight I am amazed at the humility that allowed him to tolerate me, even when I was a young man, courting his daughter.
I wish you would collect all these posts into a book. (Oh, yeah, on top of being a priest, especially at this time of year…). I would bookmark this post!
I should add, in addition to many, many other posts.
I have a proposal sitting with Conciliar Press. It would not be all of these posts, but based particularly on the Two-Storey Universe series. Thanks for the encouragement. Perhaps one with simply the posts would be possible sometime as well.
Dear Father, bless!
Being a bibliophile, I will look forward to seeing your writings in print (on paper that is). So true what you say about it being a fallacy to equate formal Liturgy with externalism; I have many friends and family members who think this way as I once did also. I now know that true Liturgy, if approached correctly (and even many times when it is not) is what liberates me from externalism.
I'm running (stumbling, but running) to Pascha with joy, Father. Pray for me that I may cultivate a heart that is truly thankful in all things. Christ is in our midst!
I came to find this through a discussion with Protestants on the emergence movement, one in which I have been attempting to defend my own Latin Rite traditions, only to find an EO priest prove to me once again that mine is not the only church with Apostolic Authority.
This is the best defense of the Sacraments, and description of the orthodox Catholic life, that I've ever seen! Keep it up, and happy Pascha Fr. Stephen!

Dozens of animal advocates in DeKalb County are seeing red when it comes to the state of the current animal shelter, and they pressured county leaders to do something about it on Tuesday.
The group, Advocates for DeKalb Animals, wants the county to build a new animal shelter with $2.75 million in federal stimulus money on a 5-acre piece of land adjacent to the Peachtree-DeKalb Airport in Chamblee.
"Last November when Brookhaven incorporated, they lost federal stimulus money that was to go to a precinct there. That money has been attached, $2.75 million, has been attached to the peachtree-Dekalb Airport site for a new shelter," said Barbara Davis of the Advocates for DeKalb Animals.
The group claims that the current shelter off Memorial Drive, is killing extremely high numbers of animals. They specifically cite that over 3,000 animals were killed at the shelter last year alone. They say a newer, bigger facility would reduce that number.
Some commissioners in the past have voiced concern over the location of the proposed new site, which has delayed a vote on the issue.
"The location that the task force has recommended is on the northern part of the county and the question really is how much do we want it to be more centrally located, more neutral,' said DeKalb Commissioner Lee May.
The county appointed an advisory board to look into the matter about a year ago. After looking at more than 100 locations, ranking them on price, size, and other factors, it recommended the PDK site.
"It is closer to the communities that are interested in animal welfare issues, interested in volunteerism, interested in adopting pets," said Sonali Saindane, chairperson of the advisory board.
What has animal advocates infuriated, is that not only did the advisory board recommend the PDK site but they say the county gets that stimulus money if it builds the shelter there. That has critics questioning the commissioners' motives for what they see as a delay in making a decision.
"I'm not worrying about the animals so much anymore, I'm worrying about the people, the citizens of DeKalb County and how they're being jerked around. It's just not right. It's a game, There's a hidden agenda here," said Patricia Singer.
Some residents say they're concerned that if this continues to go back and forth any longer, they might lose the stimulus money all together. When May was asked about that, he said the commissioners would not let that happen.
The county tabled the vote until June 11.

Add Joel Parkinson to the long list of Kelly Slater's rivals....in Joels very own backyard.
After barely losing to Parkinson for the 2012 ASP World Title, Slater began his 2013 campaign by unseating his new nemesis on Wednesday in a record book 40-minute final round of the Quiksilver Pro Australia; the two best surfers in the world traded near-perfect rides in pumping thick hollow four to six-foot surf. This was Slater's 52nd world tour win and his fourth win at the world-famous sand-bottom point break of Kirra on Australia's Gold Coast.
"It was an amazing day, congratulations to Kelly. This is why we surf, this is why we compete," Parkinson said in defeat....
The Surf n Sea Women Pipe Pro presented by San Lorenzo...yes the Bikini girls were having fun in the sun and the Athletes showed there best! The waves were very cooperative with 3-6 foot waves consistently through-out the day. The girls pushed there waves all the way to the inside and were in peak critical pockets and drops. Catch results inside.
ARE YOU KIDDING? Slater blows away our collective imagination. Story coming. The Quiksilver Pro Gold Coast presented by Land Rover, the opening stop on the 2013 ASP World Championship Tour (WCT)

RED BULL JAWS, Paddle at Pe'ahi enters the final week of its holding period today, with the last day being next Friday, March 15.
Since December 7, 2012, the event's 21 Invitees have been ready to activate for this one-day big wave paddle-in event - the first of its kind to be held at Jaws, on Maui, Hawaii. However, an optimal day of surf with wave face heights in the specified range of 30 to 50 feet, out of the NNW with light winds, has not presented itself. There have been a handful of invaluable warm-up days for the surfers, but the required size and/or quality standards ultimately fell short thus far.

The following is a forecast and not 100% confirmed and be refined Monday.
We believe there will be a good swell the first days of the holding period and are predicting we will complete all three
days of surfing by thursday...GO HERE
The level of talent on the ASP World Tour has gotten so good that it's basically come down to who ever gets the best waves wins the heat. I know, it sounds cliche, and to a point it's always been like that, but for a moment there it seemed like performance was trumping wave selection.
Based on the last couple of rounds of the Quiksilver Pro, as far as I can it, it seems the whole judging criteria and formula for winning heats has gone back to the Damien Hardman-era of solid surfing on the best waves. Don't get me wrong, I am a big fan of stylish power surfing, but I'm also a huge fan of progressive surfing. At the end of the day the best guys should be able to do both.
Tyler Wright has claimed the 2013 Roxy Pro Gold Coast presented by Land Rover over Sally Fitzgibbons (AUS), 22, in punchy two-to-three foot (1 metre) waves at the primary venue of Snapper Rocks.
Event No. 1 of 7 on the 2013 ASP Women's World Championship Tour (WCT), the Roxy Pro Gold Coast enjoyed a down-to-the-wire finish today with Wright and Fitzgibbons going head-to-head in a fiercely-fought Final.

|Implications of the cosmic ray spectrum for the mass composition at the highest energies
|D. Allard1N.G. Busca1G. Decerprit1A. Olinto1, 2E. Parizot1
|The significant attenuation of the cosmic ray flux above ~5 × 10^19 eV suggests that the observed high energy spectrum is shaped by the so-called GZK effect (GZK: Greisen-Zatsepin-Kuzmin). This interaction of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) with the ambient radiation fields also affects their composition. We review the effect of photodissociation interactions on different nuclear species and analyze the phenomenology of secondary-proton production as a function of energy. We show that, by itself, the UHECR spectrum does not constrain the composition of cosmic rays at their extragalactic sources. While the propagated composition (i.e., as observed at Earth) cannot contain significant amounts of intermediate mass nuclei (say between He and Si), whatever the source composition, and while it is vastly proton dominated when protons are able to reach energies above 10^20 eV at the source, we show that the propagated composition can be dominated by Fe and sub-Fe nuclei at the highest energies, either if the sources are very strongly enriched in Fe nuclei (a rather improbable situation), or if the accelerated protons have a maximum energy of a few 10^19 eV at the sources. We also show that in the latter cases, the expected flux above 3 × 10^20 eV is very much reduced as compared to the case when protons dominate in this energy range, both at the sources and at Earth.

INDIAN RIVER COUNTY -- The Visiting Nurse Association of the Treasure Coast was selected as one of Indian River County's 2012 best places to work by Workforce Solutions for the fourth consecutive year.
The VNA's educational programs, benefits and associate wellness initiatives were cited as contributing factors in being selected for this honor.
"The VNA cares for those that care for others. Our higher associate satisfaction leads to higher patient satisfaction, which is the core of our business. I am proud of our associates for making the VNA a great place to work," said Joyce Baldrica, VNA's president and CEO.
The VNA and each participating company was required to complete a 40-question survey that allowed their employment practices to be analyzed by the consulting firm Personnel Dynamics Consulting in Fort Pierce.
The data was measured on such parameters as: turnover, growth, employee training and development and promotion rates; employee evaluations and feedback; percentage of employee injuries; diversity of management; benefits offered and average increase in pay.
The Best Places to Work is a national program that was developed to provide a confidential forum for local employers to participate in evaluations of various local workplace best practices and programs. It provides an opportunity for employers to compare themselves to others of a similar size and serves as a valuable tool for business and human resource planning.

Q. Design is comprised of a mother/daughter team. Marilyn started out as I Do Draperies in her own home back in 1995 although she had been making custom draperies for many years before that. I Do Draperies became We Do Draperies when it rented an industrial space in October of 2000. After a year in that first industrial unit, We Do Draperies had grown to need 2 industrial units and moved within the same complex to accommodate in late 2001. Lindsay came on in October 2002 and the business had functioned and thrived strictly manufacturing custom drapery and accessories until January of 2012.
Q. Design is the outcome of striving to truly understand the needs of designers, decorators and homeowners when it comes to window coverings. There was a gap in the market for a quality driven workroom combined with resource centre for fabric, hardwares and blinds to truly make shopping for window coverings easy and elegant. Marilyn and Lindsay came up with a plan. Let's renovate our space to fill this gap and provide a full service, one-stop shop for designers, decorators and homeowners when it comes to custom window coverings, bedding and accessories. With the help of one of our best clients, Elizabeth Metcalfe Interiors and Design, we put the physical manifestation of those needs into a design plan and then made it a reality with the help of KWP Renovations. It took a little over 2 months but the space now reflects the fulfillment of our goals to provide "Designer window coverings from start to finish!".

GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) - University of Wisconsin Green Bay has hired local attorney Joseph Nicks to be the independent investigator that will look into complaints concerning men's basketball coach Brian Wardle.
Meanwhile, a second complaint involving verbal abuse was filed late last week.
UWGB Spokesman Christopher Sampson says the local media attention and events nationally factored into their decision.
"It was really important that the university to move forward on the basis of an investigation that is seen as thorough, unbiased and third-party, neutral" Sampson said.
But regardless of the Rutgers University incident, Sampson says UWGB would have proceeded the same way.
Sampson says players are not obligated to talk with investigators, but are encouraged to do so.
Sampson says Nicks will have access to any players, staff and information needed for the investigation.
The final report will likely be released. But Sampson says for confidentially reasons, UWGB players and staff identities may be redacted.

ALF Movie In The Works
Watch out "Ted," there's another wise-cracking furry little guy possibly headed to the big screen.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, 80's sitcom "ALF" is being developed as feature film. The movie will reportedly be a mix of CGI and live action.
The TV series – about a sarcastic alien (with an appetite for cats) who crash lands on earth and lives with a suburban family – aired from 1986 to 1990.
Puppeteer Paul Fusco voiced the title role on the original TV series and is reportedly expected to lend his voice talents to the character on the big screen.
A writer and director have reportedly not been attached to the project.

There, I said it.
Vagina. Awfully medical sounding, isn't it?
My five-year-old calls it a vee gee.
Maybe if state Rep. Lisa Brown (D-West Bloomfield) had said it that way on the legislative floor she wouldn't have been stifled by the house speaker.
Vee gee. It's cuter.
Rep. Brown was opposing abortion legislation on Wednesday that would make Michigan one of America's most restrictive states for the procedure.
At the end of her speech, Rep. Brown let 'er rip: "Finally Mr. Speaker, I'm flattered that you are all so interested in my vagina, but no means no."
On Thurday, she was informed that she had been censured and was not allowed to speak, on the grounds of bad language and poor manners.
She should have said vee gee.
However you feel about the abortion issue, I don't know anybody who backs the speaker's decision to take away Rep. Brown's right to speak. This isn't about abortion. It's about the right to express one's mind.
If House Speaker Jase Bolger (R-Marshall) can't handle the rough-and-tumble language of modern politics, he ought to try another line of work. Perhaps as an instructor at a debutante finishing school.
Here is yet another example of our politicians wasting time, embarrassing themselves and conjuring up divisive issues while Rome burns.
How about the roads, Mr. Speaker? Home foreclosures? Public schools? They're a mess and that's what we sent representatives to Lansing to fix.
My five-year-old will go to Catholic school next year because the public schools are in disarray.
Catholic school. Not exactly a citadel of the pro-choice movement, but a better place, I believe, to prepare her for the grownup world.
When my daughter becomes a woman, if a man treats her like Rep. Bolger treated Rep. Brown, I will expect my daughter to take that man aside and tell him to kiss her a--.

It took a team effort, including a neighbor who happens to be a country superstar, to save a horse that took a terrifying fall Thursday into the Harpeth River.
The horse tumbled 15 feet into the water when a rain-soaked riverbank gave way in Franklin.
Misty looks like any other 15-year-old horse, and she will likely make a full recovery, but the Appaloosa was up against terrible odds after venturing too far from home.
A horse and its owner always have a special bond, and now they share the amazing story of survival.
"I went to Florida five years ago and rescued her," said owner Janet McCormick.
McCormick said Misty wandered too far through the back field on her Franklin property and got in trouble when the riverbank gave way.
"Oh, yes. It was very upsetting. Very, very stressful," McCormick said.
After losing her footing, the animal wound up tumbling about 15 feet, with only her head sticking out of the water.
"I'm just glad it wasn't as cold as it has been," McCormick said.
Perhaps the weather helped save the day, because the river has not yet frozen over this winter.
Country star Luke Bryan, who lives nearby, was boating the Harpeth and spotted the horse. He stopped and, along with a friend, alerted the family and rescuers.
"It was a blessing. If they hadn't been going down the river in the boat, I wouldn't have known that she'd fallen in," McCormick said.
It took a team of about a dozen people several hours to free Misty from the chilly Harpeth.
Plan after plan seemed to fail until something finally worked.
"They had to halter her, and with some straps and a tractor and a lot of manpower to get her pulled out of the mud and get her back on the shore," said Doug Brightwell, with Williamson County Animal Control. "It's nice to have a happy ending to a story, especially to one that could have turned out so much differently."
After a lot of rest Friday, Misty seems fine. Aside from a little limp, you would hardly know anything happened.
Of course, McCormick said she won't soon forget.
"You can't thank anybody enough for taking an interest and being so helpful and genuine," she said. "And it's a blessing to have good neighbors."
The county's emergency management and rescue squad also assisted in the team effort to save Misty.
An equine veterinarian told McCormick said her horse seemed a little sore but should make a full recovery.

The latest winner of our "favorite world record that we didn't know existed until 10 minutes ago" award (previous winners include "most rotations hanging from a power drill" and "most live rattlesnakes held in a mouth") is most definitely the highest plunge off a waterfall taken by a kayaker. And - would you look at that - the 20-year record was just impressively broken by Canadian Jim Coffey, when he (intentionally!) went over the 60-foot-tall Cascada Truchas in Mexico. Flanked by his trusted safety guy (who has one of the most trustworthy beards imaginable) and a cameraman named "Cheeks," Coffey takes paddling around in a tiny boat to heights it's never been to before. PUN INTENDED.
The drop is immortalized in the (hopefully intentionally) hilariously named Cross Strokin' video, above, and begins approximately 11 minutes in. Jim rolls up to the falls and slides painfully slowly over the lip. His form going over is questionable ("headfirst" wouldn't be our preferred approach), but he emerges victorious and the holder of a record that lots (or at least some) people will possibly know about.

BOSTON (AP) — Massachusetts energy officials have awarded $3.7 million in grants to fund scores of clean energy projects in 20 cities and towns.
The Department of Energy Resources recently announced the Green Communities Competitive Grants.
The grants go to designated "Green Communities" that pledge to reduce their municipal energy consumption by 20 percent.
Energy and Environmental Affairs Secretary Rick Sullivan says a "clean energy revolution" in Massachusetts is happening largely because of good local decisions. He says the grants will help continue that work.
The grants are funded through proceeds from Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative auctions, during which electricity generators pay for carbon dioxide allowances. Those costs are passed on to ratepayers.
Projects funded by the grants include $200,000 toward a streetlight upgrade in Bedford and a $250,000 streetlight replacement in Newton.
