Reverent remembrances
Sequim and the rest of the nation continued the 143-year-old tradition of honoring fallen servicemen on Memorial Day. Formerly known as Decoration Day, Memorial Day was first observed on Monday, May 30, 1868, when flowers were placed on the graves of Union and Confederate soldiers at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia.
Annually, the American Legion and Veterans of Foreign War Post 4760 lead ceremonies across Sequim with a joint service at Sequim View Cemetery. The American Legion visited the Jamestown Cemetery, Dungeness Cemetery and Blue Mountain Cemetery and the VFW went to Pioneer Park, Zaccardo Cemetery in Blyn and Gardiner Cemetery. Memorial Day is commemorated on the last Monday each May in Washington and most states.

Look! Library Dining Rooms
Everyone loves a great collection of books. When we have visitors, they spend a lot of their time checking out each and every book we have in our collection &mdash there are so many things about the feel of libraries that make us want to stay there forever. So why not combine a place we go every single day, with a place we never want to leave?
Not very many people have a library in their home, but most people do have atleast one book shelf. We love that you can still get the same inspirational feeling of dining in a large library, even if you only have a single book case. Or even an old card catalog works just as well!
We love the fact that library dining can be just as formal as it can be informal. White, or lightly stained book shelves provide a classic, rustic and informal dining experience. Black or dark stained shelves, plus a large light fixture gives the room a dramatic and formal look.
A great source of inspiration is Jonathan Adler's library dining room (Image 9). The white table, green chairs with dark cushions and dark brown book shelves really give it a great dark, dramatic library feel &mdash but but not too dark for dining. The perfect merriment of library and dining rooms.
Thanks to Habitually Chic for providing such inspiration!

a very cool library dining room is featured all through a french movie, "Caché".... it pops up all through it.
I've totally wanted to do this, mainly because our dining room table serves as more of a reading and activity table than an actual place to eat.
I think it's a great way to turn a single-use room, which many people don't even use for that purpose, into a multipurpose one! We have a dining area with a built-in china cabinet, and I've lined the open middle shelf with cookbooks since I don't have anything else I want to put there.
Anyone know who made the floating shelves in pic 7? I love them!
Seems natural to me. My parents dining room is 2 walls of books and 2 walls of windows!
I have a bookcase and a card catalog in my dining room. Didn't realize this was a trend! I might have to try a few more library touches, in this case.
The third pic looks like a Hugh Newell Jacobsen installation. He is the master of bookshelves.
I love some of these (especially the ones with LOTS of books in floor-to-ceiling shelves). I don't know why, but I have always wanted a dining room like this.
I LOVE library dining rooms. Rooms 5 and 6 make my heart sing. I've been saving photos of them for years, hoping some day to create one of my own. Also entry hall libraries.
I just love the room that looks like it has wine storage built in.
I have bookcases in my dining room/kitchen. Almost no books on them currently as it was mainly to be storage for wine glasses and entertaining items.
This is freaky. I've been in the process of turning my own dining area into a library-dining area. I recently picked up a couple of Thonet bent plywood chairs as part of the process (they're comfortable and work well stylistically). This post is just the inspiration I needed to keep up the effort. Thanks!
I have this in my house and love it -- though nothing nearly as grand as these pics. Lovely.
I like the color combination in the last photograph. Does anyone have any idea what color those walls are? They seem very pale purple/gray, but I'm afraid I'd get nasty lavendar pastel if I tried to pick a paint color. And getting just the right green to go with....
I have a large bookshelf piece in my dining area & I love it!
These are great...!

This is a fab idea for all the people who want both but don't have space for it.
One my readers let me know about this post since he read almost the same one on my blog, Habitually Chic, yesterday, http://habituallychic.blogspot.com/2009/12/shhhwere-eating.html. The reason I wrote it was because of the post the day before which was also about library dining rooms, http://habituallychic.blogspot.com/2009/12/design-inspiration.html. I don't think your post was a coincidence considering the timing or the fact that you used many of the same images so I would have appreciated a mention or link to my post. Thanks.
Yikes - looks like some blogarism here. Isn't this at Habitually Chic as well?
I have misssed those headlines that start with "Look!". Glad to see this one. "Look! Creative uses for lint"
I love the last picture, #10, especially because of the insert in the fireplace. What to do with a non-working fireplace is such a constant problem-- I'm surprised this option doesn't get brought up more. It's probably an easy diy if you use some of that foam molding.
Anyone know what the lights are in picture #6 (the globes)?
The lack of source credit to Habitually Chic was absolute Fail. Really, AT. And adding a credit line only after being caught, sans explanation or apology? That warrants a Ph.D. in Fail.
I really hope this "Fail" trend in comments goes away really, really soon.
It has overtaken "meh" as my least favorite, least inspired, and highly annoying comment to read.
btw, rosenatti--
Nice little illustration on your profile page? Did you draw it? Guess so, cuz I don't see any credit line for it.
Actually, Patrick, I did make it. On the South Park portrait page, which is public. Any other questions? By the way, pithy rhetorical questions that fall flat = monumental FAIL.
I just like Mr Dyson's VOICE.
Ah, rosenatti, HIGHLY original then.
Patrick, the question here isn't about the originality of our profile pictures, its about lifting posts from someone's blog without crediting. So if you don't like the word "fail," fine. If you disagree with the opinion I expressed in my post, fair enough. But if you just want to just textually slug it out with me, let's take it elsewhere or call a truce. We're both starting to sound like kids on a playground, which is not so attractive for people of our, er, vintage.
You're not the only person doing the "Fail" thing, so originally, that comment was not aimed specifically at you.
As far as the rest, I enjoy irony. And your original complaint was about originality, and crediting sources. I just thought it was hilarious that your profile pic was what it was.
I am fully aware of the differences, but found the similarity too delicious to pass up without comment.
Ah, but I had permission to make my little rosenatti-as-terrorist image, since the "draw-yourself-South-Park-style app came from the network itself (think of those "draw yourself Madmen-style" pics everyone did for a while). No, it's not original, but it really does look like me. Except my legs are shorter.
But we quibble, we quibble, and I get cranky and hit capslock. Let's call a truce so we can go out, drink too much punch and share TMI with our friends.. You know, the usual holiday stuff.
My dining room houses my library! I adore it there, I browse the shelves (again) whilst eating. It also houses the computer desk, which is less cool, but practical.
I chose to place a floor to ceiling library wall in my dining area instead of a table - because I love books. I am considering adding a table, but don't want a lot of clutter. Great article.
Here is the link to the Cache dining room/library mentioned by a previous poster.

"The card itself was perfect I loved the design the only issue was that instead of delivering to my current address that I had put on the order my order was sent to my old address in New York which was on my profile but not the address I had put to be sent to. Luckily my parents still live there and sent it to me in Louisiana."
"If you want a classy invitation for a gender reveal party, this is it. It's classy, but fun! I came up with a plethora of ideas for the party, surrounding this invitation. Just think: - Chalkboard theme - pink and blue flags - having it on a Sunday - triangle banners throughout.. This invitation really helped inspired me to be creative and hopefully have a successful party! Cheers to tinyprint and the designer of this invitation."
"I loved everything about these cards, great design, easy-to-edit and quality product. I received nothing but compliments from all my guests."
"I picked this invite for friends who don't know the gender of their baby. Used the pearl paper and envelopes, alternated the color of the fonts and made the font size a tad bigger. I couldn't be happier with the results! The parents-to-be loved them too! Thanks, Tiny Prints!"
"Absolutely loved my invitations!!! The quality was great, it was just like I ordered. I would definitely order from here again. Just wonderful!!!"

I would recommend this lamp. It's smaller than I thought but much brighter than it looks on the pictures. It comes with 2 sets of lightbulbs to be used with or without the shades. The shades look very nice and expensive. I've seen some other buyers complain about the assembly process. I've had minor issue because I was careless at the beginning but I figured it out. So here is what you need to have; Small manicure scissors. That is all you need to put this thing together. The crystals are wrapped in individual plastic and the plastic is stapled over the tiny metal circles that the crystals hang from. SO IF you pull it hard, the thin wire circle opens up and unless you have a jewelry making tool you will have very hard time curling the small wire. DON'T PULL ON THE PLASTIC. Instead use the small scissors to cut the plastic and "to open the staple that may be caught against the wire circle". The entire assembly process takes about 7 minutes. The "careful" removal of the plastic wrap over the individual beads takes longer time but it's worth it because the final result looks nice. I've decided to go ahead and get the table version to match it. (if still available) I hope my advice was useful. Good luck :)
This lamp is really stunning and looks much more expensive than it is. It is super heavy, which also adds to the feeling of quality. The drawback is in the assembly. It isn't complicated as much as it is a bit tedious. The crystals are very fragile and a few of mine arrived broken. I am waiting to hear as to whether Overstock can just replace the crystals, otherwise it would be a huge pain to disassemble and send this back. This lamp also arrive with 2 sets of lightbulbs (one to be used with shade, one without) Also, it has a foot switch on the cord which is very helpful on a floor lamp. The crystals are alternating tea or caramel color (but transparent) and clear glass. The shades are more of a light champagne taupe and are not off white. If it weren't for the assembly, I would have given this an even higher rating,
Some of the 'crystals' were deeply carved out, notches. As I wasnt going to return the whole product due to this, I have a flawed product. If the company made it possible to get some extra GOOD ones, with out returning the whole lamp, then I would rate this experience Excellant/100 %. Very easy to put together. A very beautiful lamp! Just what I wanted. Although the picture quality impairs its real beauty.
This lamp is definitely a focal point. I placed it next to my grand piano for lighting. The "crystals" are plastic and attached using very thin wire loops that stretch easily. I think it looks better with the light on. I was hoping to use it without the shades, but the lights were just too bright and I thought the candles looked cheap. The stand is sturdy and the floor switch is very convenient. However, for the money, the overall look is elegant.
This is a fun, statement lamp that gives a terrific accent to a (hopefully) low key room decor. Very shiny and elegant. It took ages to put the lamp together with all the crystals, which was a pain. Fortunately all pieces were in the box. The lamp base is very heavy, providing good stability. For the price it is a very good value.
Lamp arrived quickly and was fairly easy to put together. The crystals weren't as difficult to put together as I thought they would be after reading other reviews. It looks expensive for the price and dresses up my living room.
This lamp is well worth the money and not difficult to put together----just time consuming. It's well worth the effort. It's an absolutely stunning piece and brings a lot of elegance to a room. I'm considering purchasing a second lamp. You will not be disappointed with this purchase. It arrived extremely well-packed and secure. I love it!!!!
This lamp was easily assembled although somewhat time consuming. The crystals are beautiful but fragile. When I placed the floor lamp in my living room it was as lovely as the picture of it online. I would highly recommend this to others.
When we got this assembled (with no help from instructions) it is absolutely gorgeous!! No worries about it ever tipping over-its VERY heavy. It's the most beautiful & well made lamp I believe I have ever seen. Since our new home has an open floor plan, I was trying to tie the rooms together so I also purchased the matching chandelier. They were both well worth the money. Actually, now that I have them & see how well they are made & how beautiful they are, you'd expect them to cost MUCH more than they do. (Overstock.com , I'm not suggesting that you raise the price. LOL). If this is your style, you won't be sorry if you buy this.
This took me a few hours to put together. It was packed extremely well, so unpacking was tedious. The finished product was worth the time, though. This lamp is beautiful when on and puts out a good deal of light. Was missing one small crystal, but that is not noticeable. Overall, I am quite pleased.

- Studio: Paramount Pictures
- Release Date: Jul 5, 2012
- Starring: Katy Perry
- Summary: The 3D movie music event of the summer, Katy Perry: Part of Me 3D is a backstage pass, front row seat and intimate look at the fun, glamorous, heartbreaking, inspiring crazy, magical, passionate, and honest mad diary of Katy. (Paramount Film)
- Director: Dan Cutforth
- Genre(s): Music, Documentary
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 13 out of 24
Mixed: 11 out of 24
Negative: 0 out of 24
Part of Me works hard to prove it's more than a glorified infomercial, and one reason it is more is that Perry has a startling story to tell.
Jul 5, 2012Does Part of Me plumb the depths of her soul? Hardly. As billed, it's a part of Perry she's willing to share.
Jul 4, 2012Seemingly composed in a laboratory from stray bits of Betty Boop, Sailor Moon and Daphne from "Scooby-Doo," pop princess Katy Perry is the closest thing to a human cartoon the music business has produced since Kiss. This is an impression that concert-tour documentary Katy Perry: Part of Me looks to round out and humanize, and it's successful in a number of strange, seemingly accidental ways.
When you see and hear so many fans of so many backgrounds expounding on what "Firework" means to them, you realize that while a song may or may not be for you, it most certainly is for others.
Despite being as garish and manufactured as Perry's multi-coloured hair-don'ts, Part Of Me deserves kudos for allowing an element of unpredictability to intrude upon its tween exploitation and sugary vulgarity.
Jul 4, 2012Part Of Me's hybrid format ultimately proves an uneasy marriage, and does a disservice to Perry as both a performer and a human being by never reconciling what happens in the space between those two lives.
Jul 3, 2012Part of Me strains so hard to make Perry seem at once triumphant but totally relatable that it veers toward a self-seriousness you won't find in her music, image or Hershey's Kiss bra.
Score distribution:
Positive: 15 out of 24
Mixed: 3 out of 24
Negative: 6 out of 24
Jul 5, 2012Fantastic Film, It really takes you inside her life in a whole different way, she doesn't hide anything and is not afraid to be vulnerable. She is a true inspiration.… Expand
Jul 5, 2013I'll be entirely honest, I thought this would be somewhat of a joke. I expected about half of the movie to be actual concert footage (which it was) and the other half to be rehearsed and scripted "behind the scenes" stuff (which it was not). That half was actually a pretty interesting and insightful look into her past and how she got her big break and the behind the scenes footage was very revealing, and not in a perverted way, lol. Obviously if you're not a fan of Kay Perry's music then you probably won't care to watch but if you don't mind it or of course are a fan then it's actually worth checking out.… Expand
Sep 6, 2013There is not enough music and way too much drama, but Part of Me delivers a compelling story about fame, stardom, happiness, the joy of bringing joy to others. Real-life Katy Perry is every bit as cheesy as you would expect, and then some. The concert footage is stunning and basically is what makes the movie enjoyable, unless you are interested in Perry's short-lived marriage.… Expand
Jan 26, 2013Seriously! Seriously! What a documentary, missing the taste of being a movie, the 3D! No, it is not good, TERRIBLE is the word, to my ever lasting surprise, the previous documentary, of that thing called, Justin Bieber, was a better but not good, don't have faith in him that he will become a legend, he will fall, there is no one better than Micheal Jackson, I love you Katy Perry, but this documentary, is not you, your movie about your life should be more entertaining, Sorry but ZERO without any question out of 10.… Expand

She didn't care. That's how employees of a local pet store characterized the owner, who is accused of setting her business on fire with animals trapped inside.
Those employees will be in court on Wednesday morning when Gloria Lee faces a judge for a fire at Prince and Princess Puppies and Boutique that endangered 27 puppies. They said they sensed something was wrong with Lee prior to the fire.
Employees told FOX5 that Lee didn't want to receive any more shipments of dogs, and that the store's phone line and website went down the day before the fire.
Employee Alondra Carral said Lee seemed unconcerned the day after the fire.
"It hurt. It really hurt because I didn't think anyone would have a heart to do that. It's not like it's a stranger, it's the owner of these dogs," Carral said.
Fire investigators on Monday said surveillance video from the store captured Lee and a man setting the store on fire. Police are currently looking for a man named Kirk Bills in connection with the fire, calling him a person of interest.
According to Lee's arrest report, Bills was captured on camera, pouring gasoline around the store and igniting newspapers.
"They stuffed newspapers under the kennels. It really did happen. I was shocked," employee Briana Sciosia said.
Store manager Taylor Hall said she wasn't surprised by Lee's arrest, claiming she showed signs of carelessness prior to the fire.
"She didn't even buy them food when I told her we were out of food. I had to go out of my way and spend money for food for the dogs," Hall said.
While employees said they are upset about losing their jobs and the fact that they haven't been paid in weeks, they said they're primarily concerned with the puppies.
"I have no remorse. I really think she should be put away. Give her [any] charge possible, because it hurts," Carral said.
The puppies are being housed at the Lied Animal Shelter for now.
FOX5 on Tuesday obtained court records showing Lee was charged in 2008 for failing to provide care for animals, and failing to vaccinate them. That case was later dismissed when Lee provided the necessary paperwork.

Minimum wage rises in 8 states
The minimum wage increased by somewhere between 28 and 37 cents an hour on Jan. 1. The debate continues about whether workers are helped.
This post comes from Susan Adams at partner site Forbes.com.
While economists and policy makers on the left and the right continue to disagree about the impact of a higher minimum wage on jobs and the economy, eight states put into effect minimum wage hikes on Jan. 1, boosting the incomes of some 1.4 million low-wage workers in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Montana, Ohio, Oregon, Vermont and Washington.
The minimum wage in those states rose between 28 and 37 cents an hour, adding between $582 and $770 a year to a full-time worker's compensation, according to the National Employment Law Project, a group that supports a higher minimum wage. Those eight states all have laws that require the minimum wage to keep pace with inflation.
Nevada ($8.25) also indexes its minimum wage but the hike only takes effect in July.
On the left, supporters of a higher minimum wage believe that more money in workers' pockets means more consumer spending and a boost in demand. On the right, critics point to studies showing that a hike in minimum wage can hurt GDP growth and reduce job opportunities for the least skilled workers.
There is plenty of data supporting both positions, which makes it tough to judge which side has the upper hand. Example: A study (.pdf file) by three academic economists that came out in late 2010 found that raising the minimum wage did not dampen job creation. The economists looked at data in counties that straddled state lines, where the states had differing wage policies, over a nearly 17-year period. They focused on restaurant workers but looked at other low-wage employees as well. The finding: "no adverse employment effects." Post continues below.
Meantime, a comprehensive two-decade literature review (.pdf file) by a University of California at Irvine economist and a member of the Federal Reserve Board, published in 2007, showed that a hike in minimum wage hurt the job chances of low-wage workers. A separate 2010 paper (.pdf file), prepared by economist Joseph Sabia for the Employment Policies Institute, a conservative think tank, found that a higher minimum wage drove down GDP in low-skilled industries.
Eighteen states and the District of Columbia have minimum wage rates above the federal level of $7.25 an hour. A full-time worker making minimum wage earns just $15,000 a year. (The 2010 poverty threshold set by the Census Bureau was an income of $11,139 for a single person).
One more intriguing change: The Wall Street Journal had a story about the hike in the minimum wage taking place in San Francisco. San Francisco on Jan. 1 became the first spot in the U.S. to have a minimum wage above $10 an hour, at $10.24. Several other cities, including Albuquerque ($7.50) and Santa Fe ($9.92), N.M., also set their own minimum wages.
Anecdotally, the Journalreported that San Francisco businesses don't plan to cut back on employees, but may pass the added costs of the higher wages on to consumers.
Here is a list of states that hiked the minimum wage on Jan. 1, with the amount of the increase and the new wage:
- Arizona, 30 cents, $7.65.
- Colorado, 28 cents, $7.64.
- Florida, 36 cents, $7.67.
- Montana, 30 cents, $7.65.
- Ohio, 30 cents, $7.70.
- Oregon, 30 cents, $8.80.
- Washington, 37 cents, $9.04.
- Vermont, 31 cents, $8.46.
More on Forbes.com and MSN Money:
If corporations weren't so cheap, a minimum wage law wouldn't be necessary. But for many workers, government mandated raises of the minimum wage will be the only raise they ever get.
I don't understand how companies can defend giving the CEO and other executives big pay increases and then claim that it doesn't hurt their business. Strange logic considering any company only has a fixed amount of resources. But if lower level employees earn a living wage and get regular pay increases, that will hurt their business and slow economic growth?
Responding to some posts below: $20 per hour as a minimum wage is a ridiculous idea. That is an annual salary of over $41,000. Depending on your profession and part of the country, that is about the average starting salary for someone who graduates from college with a bachelors degree. Where would the motivation be to spend money on an education and get a job that requires more responsibility and accountability?
Do you still think you are going to be able to get something off of the dollar menu if the person flipping the burgers was making $20 an hour with health and retirement benefits?
You need to get past what you think someone has earned, based on what they did. Its how much money was made overall that counts. Every employee is part of the process that made it happen. Every employee deserves a reasonable proportion of the profit, regardless of the skill level required for their job. Whether its sweeping floors or whatever.
Its all part of the big picture, and it wouldnt work without that part. Thats where the value of their job is. If a factory cant run without someone sweeping the floors, then that floor sweeper is actually pretty important, isnt he.
One thing should be clear to all. Unless most people are working, and making enough over bills to have money to spend, the economy will die.
In reality, the only thing keeping the economy alive is all the welfare and unemployment. Along with those still working of course. But if you removed all the "entitlements", the economy would crash almost immediately, due to the much lower sales across the board. And the added costs for keeping social order. No doubt that would create riots.
The business community has to put people to work making and selling widgets, and pay them enough to buy these widgets. Its that, or a welfare state, and all the costs that go with that. The masses arent just going to go away. The enonomy goes beyond just making a buck. Its how society provides for itself. That basic need must be met.
To Genesisreader :
Removing party' ideologue since neither party looks out for the people; I would like to point out that a living wage doesn't work. If the wages for the group that performs base labor is increased then the price of the goods must therefore, adjust upward. As the price increases we see what is known as inflation. This causes the amount earned by the "Living Wage" to once again be at a deficit of the amount needed to live working a 40hr week. Basically if one works a minimum wage job they must work twice the hours to receive equal money as skilled laborers. The other option is to gain the skills needed to be a skilled labor thus increasing the amount of currency received. to put it in simple terms an increase in min. wage equal an increase in cost of goods or even simpler same problem, bigger numbers.
Part of the problem is that employees are recorded as liabilities on the balance sheet, but not assets. Employees add value to the company, but the value is not measured. So the first thing a business does when things aren't going well is lay off employees or cut pay; the cost of these actions are not considered. We have an antiquated accounting system, and therefore an antiquated economic system.
You make the false assumption I advocate for myself...
Believe it or not, the economic system is a simple mathematical equation. Its very easy to see where the problem is. And its the lack of inflationary protections. And lack of wage policy that has people paid at a certain standard. So they have the necessary monies to be participants in the economy.
Cutting wages is a self defeating process, since you are in a sense, directly cutting the buying ability of your own customers. Henry Ford made it a point of paying his employees enough to comfortably buy his cars, for a reason. One mans employee, is another businesses customer, and vice versa.
You want business to go up next year? Give all your people a raise.
So, 8 states raised minimum wage?
Translation... 8 states raised the cost of living for everyone who makes above minimum wage, thus giving them a pay cut.
8 states kept those who make minimum wage in the exact same financial position dues to the inevitable raise in the cost of living that comes with raising minimum wage...
Way to stick it to the middle class.
I am always amazed at how little understanding the average reader of these articles has of basic economics.
Here is your lesson for the day. Any required increase in wages or taxes is not obsorbed by the company. It is passed along to the consumer.
Oh well, politicians live for the fact that they can play people for the fools they are. Now, don't you regret not paying more attention during your free, public school education?
It is called an entry level job. There has to be a starting point wage for a job. No you are not going to buy a house or a new car on $15,000.00 a year. That is why people have room mates, have the incentive to go to school to better themselves. Nobody says that a person has to make that for the rest of their lives. One of my first jobs as at a car wash. By the time I left there to go back to school I had worked my way up to manager. I was able to buy the house, and raise two kids on what I was earning. As technology takes over more and more of our everyday life, experience and education are going to be even more important.
Besides I am sure that we all have worked with people that are not even worth the minimum wage.
The American economy was at its strongest. When average blue collar workers wages, were 3 times the cost of living. (thats rent,food+bills) That was in the 50's and 60's, and 70's.
Then Reaganomics came along. And wages have flatlined ever since, meanwhile prices have risen 400% or more. Its why blue collar wages now barely cover rent, food and bills.
This is what people are realizing, and things are going to change. The people will elect the person they need to, to make it happen. That you can bank on.

In a news release distributed Friday, Consol Energy announced it would complete the idling of its Fola operations near Bickmore in Clay County.
Idling the operation will do away with 131 surface miners and office employees at the mine and another 16 at the Little Eagle Deep mine. The layoffs will occur over a 14-day period starting on Feb. 14.
"The decision to idle our Fola operations is a difficult one, but earlier this year we began the effort to manage our inventory and to balance coal production with expected utility demand and shipping schedules," said Nicholas J. DeIuliis, president. "We transitioned to reclamation during that period."
The employees who remained with the company were working as the coal extracting operation transitioned to reclamation efforts. Just this June, the first 318 Consol Fola employees were told they would lose their jobs due to the idling.
Reclamation efforts are to continue through mid-summer, Consol predicted.
The company blames the layoffs on "expected February completion of coal processing and shipping from its preparation plant and recovery of equipment and infrastructure from the Little Eagle Deep Mine.
The company also blamed rules from the Environmental Protection Agency that it said has increased surface mining costs and generated uncertainty for Appalachian coal customers.
"Unfortunately, the domestic market for coal remains soft due to weak economic growth and activity and the continued inability of our customers to accept committed coal shipments remains a concern," DeIuliis continued. "We are hopeful that coal markets will normalize in the second half of 2013 and allow us to review the status of our Fola operations."

SAN FRANCISCO — A San Francisco police inspector has filed a federal civil rights suit against the city of Antioch, saying a police officer shocked her with a Taser during a confrontation in her home where she was trying to evict a tenant.
Inspector Marvetia Lynn Richardson, 41, a 14-year San Francisco police veteran who is now on unpaid leave from her job, said Antioch officers broke down her door last year, stunned her with a Taser and then took her to jail when she demanded to write "Tasered" on a citation for resisting arrest.

"We wanted to do a system check on this place and make sure we were dialed in," Helm said, sitting inside Helm's Ale House and Restaurant at the corner of Sixth Street and Central Avenue on Tuesday, July 2. "That didn't happen. It was a stampede."
The space was formerly occupied by El Castillo restaurant, a downtown fixture since 1956 that closed this spring.
"When we opened the door up, we had 40 people here for lunch," Helm said. "Once we opened the door, they never stopped coming through it."
His original ale house at 10th Street and Central Avenue was closed by the city because of structural problems on Oct. 31, 2011. Helm said he immediately began his search for a new location.
"I wanted to stay downtown," Helm said. "I like downtown. I like this town. This is as good as it gets in Tracy. There's good parking and great neighbors."
When he learned about the retirement of El Castillo owner Ray Morelos, Helm acted immediately.
He and Morelos met for 20 minutes and parted with a handshake, and Helm met with the property owner two days later with a lease agreement.
"It was meant to be," he said. "I looked all over this town. Probably looked at 20 to 25 different places, and this just feels right."
After a little more than a month of renovations, the restaurant is open, but Helm still wants to have a grand opening in late July.
Offering a variety of beers on tap, Helm's Ale House and Restaurant also holds a full liquor license and serves lunch and dinner menus that include traditional hamburgers, steaks and hand-cut fries.
The restaurant will be open 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday to Thursday and 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. Friday and Saturday at 600 Central Ave.
A quick look around the restaurant reveals personal touches of Helm and his family everywhere, from his mother's homemade decanters to his collection of public safety patches.
"I want a place where families can go," he said.
There are also several pieces of military history hanging on the walls, including a World War II American flag and an officer's sword that belonged to his father.
The proprietor said he wants to replicate the atmosphere of his first downtown restaurant, which had a reputation as a local "Cheers."
"I just wanted to be a pub," he said. "I wanted to be a place my grandfather took me in New York, Lower East Side, an Irish pub."
Enjoying a couple of cold beers in the restaurant on Tuesday were Tracy residents Joe Trujillo and Craig Steege.
"It's great," Trujillo said about Helm's return. "We missed it — (it's) definitely needed downtown. Good beer, good food, good company."
Sharen Petrig, who co-owns neighboring business Vita Dolce, agreed that Helm's is a welcomed addition to the Sixth Street area.
"We're delighted to have him," Petrig said. "It's a great corner. I think Tracy was ready for it."

I'm trying to figure out something really different to do with leftover roast duck. My first thought was ravioli, remembering a smoked duck ravioli (my roast ducks weren't smoked, but that flavor can be added) I once swooned over at a little Napa Valley restaurant called Mama Nina's. Same idea, but easier, would be lasagna. Another interesting thought is a shepherds pie.
I've done the ravioli before, but not the other two. I've also tossed the cold duck shreds with arugula and a caesar-like dressing and given that the wrap treatment. But that's too lunchy for a chilly fall evening--I want something hot.
Has anyone here done anything interesting with surplus roast duck?

Logan police thought they had safely secured a drunk and unconscious man in an exam room at Logan Regional Medical Center.
An officer even took up station outside the room while writing his report on the man's alleged trespassing, intoxication and public urination.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
But when the officer finished the report and went in to check up on his charge, he allegedly found a male medical staffer performing oral sex on the still-unconscious suspect instead of inserting a catheter.
"It's one of those moments when you say to yourself, 'Really? Wow,'" Logan Police Chief Gary Jensen said Friday. "It's unsettling, to say the least."
Jensen said that late on the night of Jan. 20, his officers had been dispatched to a residence near 1200 West and 200 North to deal with the drunken suspect, who was reportedly refusing to leave the home. Officers arrested the man, who passed out in the back seat of a cruiser en route to the Cache County Jail.
Neither officers nor paramedics were able to rouse the man, so he was transported to the hospital emergency unit and placed in the exam room to be monitored.
When the accompanying officer decided to check on the suspect, "He walked in the room and pulled the curtain back slightly. The officer observed the unconscious man laying on the hospital bed and the male caregiver performing a sexual act on the patient," Jensen said.
The officer summoned hospital security personnel and just after midnight Jan. 21, Hal Lavaun Weston, 46, of Laketown, was detained, questioned by detectives and then arrested.
He was booked into Cache County Jail and later released on his promise to appear before a judge Feb. 13 in 1st District Court.
On Tuesday, Cache County prosecutors formally filed a first-degree felony forcible sodomy charge against Weston.
Calls to Weston's Laketown home Friday seeking comment went unanswered.

OctoCube is a shape modification of a fracture-sliced triakis octahedron, with additional corner and edge pieces added to make the shape fully cubic. The puzzle turns on six axes, much like a normal magic cube. However, when a face center displays eight-way symmetry, that axis can turn in 45 degree increments. This allows the puzzle to shape-shift as well as jumble.Beginning in 2014 hknowstore mass produced this puzzle with body colors in black, white and blue. That was also the point when it received its patent number.

A few dolls, board games and even some race cars were put on a truck and sent to Moore this morning.
It happened back in May but plenty of organizations are still collecting items for those needing them after the tornado struck the town in May. And this morning, KVOO and ToyRelief.com bid farewell to a truck filled with toys for children in Moore.
"It's so gratifying to put smiles back on children's faces," ToyRelief.com member Jim Davis said. "They're so innocent, they don't pick where they live, they don't pick the weather. I know it affects them for many years to come when a tornado devastates their home. We feel like the sooner we can bring that back, the better off they'll be in the future."
ToyRelief.com formed in Indiana back in 2012 when a tornado hit a local town. Davis was in Tulsa on his way to Moore and KVOO had just wrapped up a donation drive to give cash to teachers in Moore to pay for school supplies and other necessities for their classrooms.
Davis and his organization will arrive in Moore this evening.

Dr. Sara Hart, ND has been a practitioner of the healing arts for many years, guided by the dynamic state of balance observed in the natural world, the knowledge of modern technology and the wisdom of ancient traditions. Working for 10 years in home health and institutional settings, the limitations of pharmaceutical based therapies were apparent and a holistic approach to healing was sought. Through apprenticeships and formal study she was able to gain expertise in the field of herbal medicine, homeopathy, physical medicine, acupuncture, nutritional and supplemental therapies.

Healing Dance® has many aspects, all based on the healing power of movement. This 16 hour course is designed to acquaint participants with the Healing Dance.
My love of Watsu® stems from the heart-centered connection I feel with the person floating in my arms. I believe Watsu® is a way of bringing awareness, groundedness and peace into our daily lives. Much more than a "technique" of aquatic bodywork; the surrender and trust, as well as physical flexibility experienced in a session is profound. I incorporate NVC and the unique style of Selwa Said Communication into the class as good communication and ethics are essential to the healing process.
My passion for Watsu has taken me from being a Montessori teacher, and 22 years of being a performance artist using mime, comedy and movement, into the healing arts. This has aided in my flowing style in sessions as well as creating a supportive, graceful, nonjudgmental learning environment in the classroom, adapted to individual learning styles.
Trained with the originators of Watsu & Healing Dance, with over 8,000 hours of Massage study and teaching, co-taught with Harold Dull; creator of Watsu, I bring my knowledge of land massage into my water-healing; ZenShiatsu, Energy Active Craniosacral, Yogasage, Lomilomi, to name a few.
The space of total presence and awareness that the giver provides in WaterTherapy, is the same space we can use to bring peace in our world, locally and globally. I'd love to share this space with everyone.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I customized this program with a custom color to match my wedding colors and chose an edge trim to make it really unique. They turned out perfect!"
"We got a bunch of folks together before the wedding to fold programs, but it was hardly needed as these babies came with a prefold making it a breeze! My only very slight complaint is that we wanted to customize our program a bit with different fonts/sizes but everything other than the titles on each page is in one text box so we had to make a lot of requests to get everything right. But that was a pretty minor complaint in the scheme of things since the designer that worked with us took what we sent and made it better than we could have ever described. We chose this program because it matched our invitations, but on it's own, it's still a beautiful addition to any ceremony."
"was on the verge of a wedding meltdown over putting off programs until the last minute - found the website on the knot put it together on a beautiful design and had it to me in record time! even re-ordered more to ensure everyone gets one of these beautiful programs on our day! quite pricey worth every penny"
"I was able to personalize my program with my wedding colors -- pewter and emerald. They were very accomodating in special requests and helped rearrange the layout several times. Quick response time and completion for a beautiful product."
"Colors were crisp. Design is very simple and modern. Formatting choices may be limited, but design staff willing to adjust for you after order is placed."
