Is the Firestorm Against Chik-Fil-A Justified?
With Chik-Fil-A's recent announcement that they support a traditional marriage they have under a firestorm of serious proportions. It was surprising to see that so many people were unaware that a Christian company, that is closed on Sunday's, is a proponent of traditional marriage.
However, with that aside, are the attacks warranted? Does Chik-Fil-A deserve such harsh actions against them. The mayor of Boston has banned them from the city. Boycotts have been planned. People have taken up arms against Chik-Fil-A. Do they Deserve this?
Aug 4 2012: I don't think that the mayor has the power to ban a company in Boston, but if he can then I don't think it's justified by Chick-Fil-A's comments.
However, all other instances of anti or pro Chick-Fil-A demonstrations are completely warranted. Chick-Fil-A has become a conduit for people to express their opinions on marriage equality. In my opinion the CEO of Chick-Fil-A made a very bad business decision by expressing his opinions to an audience (his customers) in which at least 50% disagree with him.
On another note this is a truely beautiful example of the freedom of speech. Even someone like me who is strongly opinionated on this issue can see that.Aug 2 2012: Andrew Wiggin from Ender's Game??? :O
It's really hard to say for me, so it's yes/no for me.
Yes, because people are realizing that if they go eat at Chick-Fil-A, they're basically giving more money for the company. The company is then using that money gained to support no gay marriages, which is something that people are against. So in their power, people decide to boycott Chick-Fil-A and cut off their power supply.
No, because I wanna simply go to a restaurant for its food, not for its political beliefs. Chick-Fil-A has good chicken sandwiches, and I should support them for making good chicken sandwiches.
However, here's what I think will happen. I went to Wendy's the other day. I noticed they had a Chicken Sandwich on their menu that looks JUST like the Chick-Fil-A one, though not nearly as good. So if other restaurants out there start having the same stuff as Chick-Fil-A, Chick-Fil-A will be screwed. Because these other restaurants support gay marriages AND they offer the same food. So why should people go to Chick-Fil-A anymore?Jul 31 2012: It seems most people have pretty much the same idea.
Can he believe and say what he wants? Yes
Can a city stop them from coming there based on this? No.
It kind of seems like it has been blown way out of proportion.Jul 30 2012: Well, I think as from an economic standpoint, it was very unwise. I'm not sure if it was the company which came out with a statement or a high up employee which does make a difference. I thought the company's latest response was a very diplomatic response that resembled "we are not getting involved in this; let the politicians fight this one out." The company received much criticism and a lot of bad publicity. That is just bad for business.
That being said, the company can think what it wants. If they support a traditional view of marriage, no one can really change that. A company, like an individual, can think what it wants to. If it expresses its views and angers customers, then its profits will probably suffer. The idea that the company could be banned from a city is rather absurd. As someone already points out, the city isn't going to ban the company. A company can express whatever view it would like, but it will have to deal with the public's reaction.Jul 29 2012: It's fully justified against the owner yes, but if this ends up hurting the employees then it may need rethought, surely not every employee agrees with the owner.Jul 29 2012: This is a difficult question to answer. I'm not sure what grounds for being "justified" is. A lot of people feel very strongly about this issue. Those who support traditional marriage (disclaimer: I am guessing here) feel that their religious/moral values are being threatened by the possibility of same-sex marriages. Those who support marriage between any two humans not presently married and greater than some age (trying to be as board but specific as I can with this categorization) feel that basic human rights are being violated. Given those feelings, any national organization is bound to be under a firestorm from one side or the other. If the reasons behind those feelings are true (and people on both sides think that they are backed by some truth), then such demonstrations are completely justifiable. I would imagine that where you fall on this issue affects how you answer this question (whether or not the firestorm is justified).
Aug 1 2012: The only problem is that one side isn't backed by truth at all on this issue. The idea that someone else's definition of marriage somehow impacts your own is complete and utter nonsense, and the people spreading this nonsense know it, they just want to drum up anger and hatred.
Aug 1 2012: I certainly agree that one side (being against "gay marriage") is wrong. However, someone from the other perspective may believe that we are inviting G-d's judgment / condoning a grave sin if "gay marriage" is allowed. I highly doubt that anyone spreads an idea that they don't believe just because they want to drum up anger and hatred. That may be the outcome of their behavior, but I disagree with what you charge as the motivation. If that is an expression of frustration on your part with what you perceive as obstinacy from those against "gay marriage", I can sympathize. However, I don't think such misplacement of motivations is productive, they just stoke further "anger and hatred" from those that disagree with you.
Aug 1 2012: Fair point... I think what I really meant... is that... One can only spend a limited amount of time on TV and in the media. One can only spend so much time on political causes. To call yourself Christian, and then dedicate time to those issues, rather than other much more pressing concerns of the poor and the unfortunate, is pure hypocrisy.
Chik Fil A could have spent its time and energy, feeding poor people chickens, or giving free bibles out at a homeless shelter. They could have organized a charity event, for something productive, and gotten good press... Instead they chose this issue.
In doing so they have proven that this is not about their faith, which would suggest much more productive means of helping one another... It's an outlet for anger they already experience with a group growing in self respect, that they don't like. This anger may also stem from gods wrath and judgment, but it is anger nonetheless.
Spending time, money, and energy, on the gay rights issue, is not an act of faith, it's an act of anger. There are much more positive, and healthy ways someone can influence their community, and the bible is a book that will suggest a few.Jul 29 2012: Boston Mayor Tom Menino has no such authority and has made no such attempt to ban a legal business from his city. All he has done is written a letter to Chick-fil-A expressing is opinion.
Jul 29 2012: The way I read the story he was attempting to block their attempts from starting a Boston branch. However, I may have misinterpreted. Thank you for pointing out that error.Jul 29 2012: Anyone, who has spent millions of dollars opposing same sex marriage... While people starve... Should read the bible. I'm not even a fan of the book, but it has better morallity in it than that.
"It is easier for a camel to fit through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to get into heaven"
Chik-Fil-A is stupid, and it should spend the money it makes selling chicken... making and raising... better chicken.
That said. It's a free country, if they want to misinterpret a 2000 year old book to justify being judgemental pricks, who watch children starve... That's their right.
Jul 29 2012: Your argument defeats itself, while you yourself misinterpret the actual text.
Indeed the Bible states as you say, "It is easier for a camel to fit through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into heaven" (Matt. 19:4). However, the actual meaning of this passage is that the pride and a love of riches that the typical rich man posses makes it very difficult for him to give fully their lives to Jesus.
Furthermore, your assertion that, "Chik-Fil-A is stupid, and it should spend the money it makes selling chicken... making and raising... better chicken" is in itself a judgement. Also, I fail to see the evidence that they have "spent millions of dollars opposing same-sex marriage". Do you perhaps have evidence of this? Assuming that they have spent those "millions of dollars", are not advocates of same-sex marriage guilty of the same crime? With what I believe, millions of dollars spent on advocating same sex-marriage, children are starving. In your own words, "While people starve... Should read the bible. I'm not even a fan of the book, but it has better morallity in it than that".
Jul 29 2012: That is exactly how I meant the quote. I think it is very difficult for any human being to use their wealth in an efficient way, in order to truly help the least among us. If I believed in heaven that would be the path to it, in my book, and, in my interpretation, the book of Jesus.
Spending said money on same sex, or anti same sex marriage, is an inefficient use of resources for being a good human being. Ignorant, may have been a better word than stupid. They don't seem to understand what they are, and what people come there for.
They admitted to donating to numerous organizations which then ran ads against prop 8 here in California. I think "Speaker for the Dead" is a better book than the bible personally... but I don't understand how people who call themselves "christians", spend so little of their money feeding and helping poor people. I mean, especially if you own a chicken restaurant, there has to be easier ways for you to use your money to feed the hungry... Hint... Think chicken.
Jul 30 2012: I can agree with you on one point. I cannot believe that there are so many people who call themselves Christians, yet do so little to live up to the standard. That being said, traditional marriage is a Christian value. Again your argument is a contradiction. You criticize Christians for not following their beliefs then criticize them, yet again for standing up for their beliefs.Jul 30 2012: I do not criticize them for standing up for their beliefs, I criticize their non sensical and self destructive priorities. Every dollar a christian spends fighting gay marriage while children starve, makes the entire christian faith look weak, petty, and childish.
Also... traditional marriage in the eyes of government, is not a christian value. Jesus didn't say anything about government interaction with sexual relationships. Marriage, in the government sense, is a simple contract, which has nothing to do with the sacred union between a man and wife in the religious sense. That is why the argument is petty and childish.
Finally... fighting to opposed the rights of an individual based solely on your perspective of their behavior... Is called a judgment. I don't remember JC being a big fan of those things.
Aug 1 2012: I do agree that there should be more done for the children, but you are merely using it as a distraction and moving away from the actual topic at hand. If you want to talk childish, let us talk of the hypocrisy that is occurring. For a group of people who demand tolerance they are sure intolerant of others. It is incredulous to believe that the same people who want that freedom of choice are infuriated when another group uses their freedoms.
My argument is not whether or not homosexual marriage is acceptable, but rather is this uproar appropriate or not. The childish response has left me baffled. If they want to stand up against real intolerance, then stop buying oil. Some countries that make up OPEC put homosexuals to death. If someone wants to protest, protest that. I will join that fight. I will go to the streets for that fight. I will not condone an attack upon a group who decided to speak their views.Aug 1 2012: It's not a distraction it's a matter of identity. If Chick Fil A, was actually a Christian organization, it would have better things to do with its money than fight gay marriage. There are much greater tragedies in the world. It infuriates me that these people call themselves Christian while being horribly judgemental pricks who waste their money helping no one.
It would infuriate me even more if I actually considered myself a Christian. Of course people stopped shopping there when they decided to waste screen time talking about this nonsense. Why would you shop there? Why wouldn't you buy a chicken sandwich somewhere else? There's plenty of places that sell chicken and don't waste their time telling you gay people are going to hell. What they did was legal, they have a right to do it... and it was stupid, and it's going to cost them business. Capitalism baby, stupid companies are supposed to go out of business.
People don't protest OPEC because oil gets them to work every day, or their family starves... A chicken sandwhich is easier to resist.
Aug 7 2012: "There's plenty of places that sell chicken and don't waste their time telling you gay people are going to hell". This statement has revealed your ignorance on the subject at hand. Please provide an official picture/link of Chick-Fil-A saying that homosexuals should go to hell.
"People don't protest OPEC because oil gets them to work every day, or their family starves... A chicken sandwhich is easier to resist." So in effect this statement means that those protesting Chick-Fil-A are not real activists. It is easy to protest Chick-Fil-A, that much is true, but to what end? What have they accomplished, but to be able to say to themselves that they did a good deed for the year. Roark was right, altruism does not exist. If it did, Chick-Fil-A would probably do more for the impoverished than they already do, and these so called protesters would be fighting the real evil, not some pseudo evil that they have constructed to feel good about themselves and not inconvenience themselves.Aug 8 2012: I can happily meet you there. That's true, they don't specifically say homosexuals are going to hell. They do support a church that does, so in some ways I would suggest you're arguing semantics. I on the other hand, did say that as emotional propaghanda, simply because I don't understand what anyone thinks they have to gain from this issue.
I could not reconcile a belief in Christ with what these people are doing... and so the issue really pisses me off. That's not a valid rationed argument though. "Really pissing me off", is not always objectively incorrect, though I may wish it was.
Aug 8 2012: Well seems we found some sort of common ground here. If you would like my view on the homosexual marriage debate here it is: As a Christian I cannot support homosexuality, however that being said, it is ludicrous for churches to say God hates homosexuals. The majority of Christians believe those people who claim that are actually insane. Leviticus 19:18 says "'Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against anyone among your people, but love your neighbor as yourself." Thus any Christian who says otherwise is not a real representation of Christ and lack the understanding to go out and proclaim his name.Aug 9 2012: I just think we can both agree that there are better causes that a Christian can direct their time and money to fighting, than homosexuallity. Correct?
I can definately agree that there are much better causes for human rights activists to fight for, than putting Chik Fil A out of business.

Workplace Relationships
Because so much time is spent with fellow associates at work, it is imperative that you are aware of your reactions, always choosing to treat others with consideration, respect, and honesty. "Treat others the way you wish to be treated" is something we learn early on, and it still applies. Respecting rank, dealing with conflicts, and taking responsibility are all part of maintaining positive workplace relationships.

As House Republicans gather in Colonial Williamsburg this weekend, it's easy for them to despair and for Democrats to appear gleeful.
After all, Mitt Romney got walloped, the GOP lost Senate seats instead of gaining them, and their House majority is smaller and more fractured. And that's leaving aside the much-discussed demographic changes that threaten to swamp the national party in the years ahead just as the Pete Wilson tough-on-immigration '90s begat the crushing of the Republican Party in California. (See Larry Sabato on the GOP's woes here. My colleague, Ron Brownstein, has been on the case for a long time, including here.)
As always, though, there's hope in despair—seeds of renewal amidst the rubble. No one should sugarcoat the problems of the GOP. But as Democrats discovered in the early 1990s after losing their third presidential election in a row, or the GOP did after Barry Goldwater's landslide defeat in '64, there is a chance at a second chance if the party is willing to recalibrate.
Bill Clinton's '92 race was launched on fertile ground (a weak economy, the end of the Cold War, a third party candidate that fractured Republicans). But he famously trimmed the Democratic Party's sails on issues like the death penalty and welfare, which had been crushing the party. (The tide has turned again on the death penalty, but that's another matter.) In 1968, Richard Nixon bridged the defeated Goldwater wing of the GOP with the more traditional elements and had other things going for him (social turmoil, the George Wallace third party bid).
Today's Republicans can count on some good trends in their direction, even while the demographic tide shifts against them. And if they can recalibrate, a la Clinton, they'll be in even better shape. Herewith, seven reasons that the Republicans shouldn't despair:
1. The economy's getting better, but it's still kind of lame. The Federal Reserve has said that it'll keep interest rates low through 2014. That is not an encouraging sign about unemployment, which remains stubbornly high even as housing, retail sales and other indicia look better. Republicans can't count on the economy to lift them out of the cellar in 2014 any more than it did in 2012, but it's still likely to be a boost to them more than to Democrats. And, of course, the national debt will be on its way to $20 trillion by 2016.
2. The sixth year of a presidency is usually bad. Clinton's Democratic Party picked up some House seats in 1998 because of reaction to the impeachment mess. But throughout the 20th century, the sixth year has generally seen a big loss like the Democrats in '66 (Lyndon Johnson's term was effectively JFK's second) and Bush in 2006. Again, this isn't enough to count on, but "Obama fatigue" is likely to set in.
3. Rubio offers a way out on immigration. As George W. Bush and even the much-maligned Gov. Rick Perry have shown in Texas, there's a way for Republicans to garner enough Hispanic votes to stay in the game. (Why the culture of Texas and New Mexico has given rise to more Republicans who know how to navigate Hispanic politics than, say, Arizona and California, is a topic worth a book.)
If Republicans can recalibrate their position on immigration enough so that they move away from Romney's disastrous "self-deportation" to some kind of pathway to legal residency, they'll have gone a long way toward solving their problems. The conservative base may still entertain the fantasy that millions of illegal immigrants can be nudged and cudgeled into leaving Milwaukee for Monterrey and get back in line. But the sooner reality sets in — and it hasn't yet — the sooner the party can come up with some kind of response to the Democrats. It won't be enough to win a majority of Hispanic votes, which are motivated by issues beyond immigration. But they don't need a majority of Latino votes, only a percentage of them high enough to give them an overall majority.
Marco Rubio, R-Fla., offers a way out. The senator's position on immigration reform is similar to Obama's and hasn't gone much further than broad principles. If he ever actually draws up legislation, it's sure to create more obstacles to gaining legal status than do the president's ideas. But by coming up with an idea that creates a pathway out of the shadows, Rubio's given the Republicans something they can take to Hispanic voters and use to distance themselves from the self-deportation rhetoric of the Romney campaign. Indeed, even Paul Ryan seems to get this having embraced Rubio's ideas. If enough Republicans can be brought along then it's potentially the kind of cultural breakthrough that could help them enormously come election time.

You are never too young to start thinking about your future.
Those are the words of 13-year-old Eddita Pessima, a seventh grader at Lakelands Park Middle School in Gaithersburg.
They are also words of advice students from across the county heard at the Preparing for Success Fall Forum held Nov. 17 at Montgomery College in Rockville.
Eddita and her friend Yenyfer Alites, 12, also a seventh grader at Lakelands Park, were having lunch halfway through the daylong seminar sponsored by the Montgomery County Women�s Bar Foundation.
�This is a great opportunity to see what you can be when you grow up, so I went for it,� Eddita said.
Students from all county high schools, public and private, were invited to attend. About 170 students attended the forum, which is planned for girls but included a handful of boys. Even some middle school students who heard about the forum from their school counselor attended.
�We don�t turn anyone away,� Savage said.
Saturday�s seminar was the 12th annual Preparing for Success event.
Circuit Court Judge Katherine D. Savage has been involved in the program since the beginning.
�I do it because I love this population of high school-age kids.� Savage said. �It�s important to give [them] concrete things as they go through high school.�
Workshops offered during the day taught students how to get a job and keep it; how to dress for a job; cyber-safety; looking at community college and beyond; and a presentation of �Fun & Amazing Jobs.�
That workshop included presentations from a veterinary technician from the National Zoo, courtroom clerks, a deputy sheriff and women business owners.
�We want to go beyond the usual doctor, lawyer,� Savage said.
Marenda Kyle, 15, a junior at Gaithersburg High School, said she tries to take advantage of every opportunity to help her prepare for the future.

1 (16 ounce) package

1 tablespoon
olive oil
1 teaspoon
minced garlic
red bell pepper, chopped
2 bunches
asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1 inch pieces
1 cup
chicken broth
1/4 cup
chopped fresh basil
salt to taste
1/2 teaspoon
3 tablespoons
1 pound
grilled chicken breast strips
1 1/2 cups
grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup
pecan halves
Fantastic spring time dish! It does work best to keep the pot covered when you add the chicken stock and also when you add the remaining ingredients. This way there is some liquid left when you add the parmesan and you don't need to add any more chicken stock. I will definately make this again!
I found this recipe to be bland. I actually put a tablespoon of freshly minced garlic and everyone thought it could still use alot more. I also thought some red pepper flakes could have helped. I gradually added the parmesan cheese and it didn't blend in very nicely. I thought the pecans were a nice touch, but they kind of freaked my sister out when she thought it could possibly be a hard piece of chicken. I think the next time I would make it without the chicken, maybe just toss the parmesan on at the end rather than trying to blend it in and definitely add more spices.

This was very easy and very good. I woud alter next time in a couple of ways - a little red pepper flakes and I would substitute pine nuts for the pecans. The pecans were interesting but pine nuts seem better suited to the dish.
Probably my favorite main-dish recipe of all time. I often make it with chicken sausage instead of grilled chicken strips, and it is always such a hit. Sam's Club sells a chicken-spinach sausage that is perfect for this recipe. Enjoy!
Really liked this recipe. My husband, who really is picky about his chicken dishes, thought this was great. I did substitute pesto in place of the basil leaves, as I did not have fresh basil and the stuff at the store looked a bit less than fresh. Turned out great. Thanks for a super recipe.
Great dish- family loved it! Used Havarti cheese instead of parmesan- it melts better, and toasted the pecans while I was grilling the chicken
Awesome! Absolutely the best dish we have made from this site. I would not change anything. Next time I might try breaking the pecans up so that I get more in every bite. Also we roasted the pecans in the oven before adding them but it would be good even without the nuts.
Great dish! Only used 1 bunch of asparagus and added mushrooms.

Fort Point at Presidio in San Francisco, CA
Presidio B&W #17
Straight out of camera. Developed with Olympus Viewer for distortion control and preservation of that "Olympus look", but this was shot in black and white right off the bat, not a conversion. Could have increased the contrast a little and let the highlight overblown a little for dramatic effect, but decided it's fine the way it is.
Presidio B&W #6
Straightened and cropped to 2x3. Used Lightroom's built-in black and white preset (desaturation), otherwise, pretty much as shot.
Presidio B&W #18
The original out-of-the-camera version was too flat looking, despite the subject is anything but flat..., so I increased contrast level to show the light and shadow. Ironically, the original was shot in B&W just for that very reason. Maybe next time I should shoot it with a film with ultra low dynamic range (Fuji Velvia 50?) instead of digital.
Presidio B&W #13b
A hallway inside the Presidio. F11 version. This version permenentaly replaces old version.
Presidio B&W #25
All the archways provide a nice glimpse of the Fort's court.
Presidio B&W #19
Golden Gate Bridge as seen on the roof top of Fort Point.
Presidio B&W #20
The same stair from Presidio B&W #18, but from another perspective.
Through the Window
As shot, straight out of camera. RAW developed by Olympus Master, ported back to Lightroom for tagging and filing. Cropped to 8x10 for print.
Presidio B&W #3 (recropped version)
Recropped, but still shaped like an eye.
Presidio B&W #15b
Another shot of the same scene. This time in landscape format.
Presidio B&W #30c
Through the Window 2
Through a rather dirty window....
Presidio B&W #16b
Just slightly different from 16a. Changed the position from where I was shooting from so there is no obstruction from above to block the view. The eye shape is still the main point here (like most of the shots from the series). Converted into B&W but no other post-process.
Presidio B&W #24a
This was the original vision. Shot #24b just to be safe. The concept of this version is to leave a lot of white space to have that empty feeling. Lighthouse is kind of shy in the corner. Converted into B&W, otherwise, no process.
Presidio B&W #30a
The Time Capsule (new process)
Fort Point has many blind corners like this that could bring you back to its root as a defensive structure.
August 29, 2011 new process.
Presidio B&W #14
A great place to look at Golden Gate Bridge, i think.
Presidio B&W #29
Presidio B&W #12
This shot gave me a lot of problems. I was shooting for that curve created by the stairs. Apparently I can't use AF because it'll just focus on the lit part. I couldn't use a tripod either..., so it's a little bit challenging. I shot many of them. This one turns out to be the closest to what I wanted to do.
The Window Is the Eye to the World 2b
I liked how the window light just glowed in the nearly pitch dark recess, so I took this photo to show the light. The face of the arch was pitch dark and the wall on the right is pretty much Zone 1 (nearly pitch dark). If it wasn't very overcast that day, the window light would easily overblown in the final photo. Fortunately I brought my tripod with me so after some adjustment (I found it's best shooting around about a little more than 2 feet off ground) here it is. The dirt on the window, if I am not mistaken, is actually red colored "green algae." There are plenty of them growing on Fort Point's walls. Post-processed to reproduce faithful color to my naked eyes.

Awesome animation events at the Samuel Goldwyin Theater
This past week I had one of the best times ever in Los Angeles as there has been an ongoing tribute to animation at the Academy Awards Samuel Goldwyn Theater.
An ongoing Chuck Jones tribute with original art. A tribute to Ray Harryhausen with original art. Two events, one dedicated to voice talent featuring June Foray live with a stellar panel of voice artists and the next night a major tribute to Chuck Jones with 9 of his films shown back to back on a big ass 40ft wide screen in 35mm.
Both nights the place was packed. A couple thousand people easy and Chuck Jones' event was sold out. You could go up and shake hands with many of animation's top stars and we had a blast. I mean a real great time! I got to sit in an audience of people who were still laughing at June Foray's jokes and voices and Chuck Jones' cartoons. There was a spectacular video showing never before seen Walt Disney doing voice work on a Mickey feature. This video also showed the live talent and how the animators incorporated the live talent into their character animation. I would have paid phat money to see this video and hope it comes out on DVD.
There were people at the event as young as 2 years old to 100 years old. It was better than going to a theme park and the exhibitions are free and the two events only cost $5. I would have paid ten times that much.
I met many people in the industry and got first time handshakes with folks I've come to know here on AN.
Charles, you should have been there. AN got much respect when I mentioned it to people.
This whole week has been neat for animation in my neck of the woods. Just found out tonight my pal Matt Senreich of "Robot Chicken" got himself another Emmy Award! Tomorrow night is another "Cartoon Dump" show. This summer has definitely inspired me to keep on keeping on as an artist.
If you can, get to the exhibit at the Samuel Goldwyn Theater before it closes Sunday the 22nd.
Re: Awesome animation events at the Samuel Goldwyin Theater
Wish I could make that one, Greg. Nothing I can say would accurately convey the intensity of that desire.
However, for right now I'm gonna have to settle for reading and re-reading your account of that night, the details of which naturally had me salivating. I know the day is coming when I won't need to miss too many of those particular nights.

HERSHEY - The Kane country teams finished the season at the state meet in Hershey on Saturday.
Taylor Beimel, Kristen Boyer, Avery Colson and Jon Gelsick all competed in the event, and all would have fine races in the final race of the year.
In the girls' AA race, it seemed as though the competition was an exercise in deja vu. Homer Center's Angel Piccirillo, national elite and Villanova-bound athlete, would win the race as a repeat of last year. Elk County Catholic's Kennedy Weisner also repeated a second-place finish. Finally, not to be outdone, St. Marys' Adair Genocro finished third overall, another repeat from last year's race.
Beimel was Kane's first finisher in 21:06 a season best, and good enough for 71st place. Boyer, who was making her first appearance at the state meet, finished in 156th with a time of 22:10, a personal best. Both Kane competitors started out conservatively, which made for difficult transitions through the massive hoard of girls clogging the narrow runways of the state course. Beimel and Boyer both passed numerous runners in the final stretch to close out solid races in good positions.

Miramichi has a long history of men working the logs on the river. The logs fed the many pulp and lumber mills along the river. In the past there were several pulp mills and many lumber mills. Today, there are no pulp mills and just a few lumber mills still operating.
Miramichi is now a destination for people who enjoy festivals all summer and several in the winter, socialising and shopping keep this place busy.
Come enjoy 'Life on The River' - Welcome to the Miramichi.
We are located in the Chatham area of Miramichi New Brunswick. The Officer's Quarters Hostel is located on the Old Military Base, in an area known as Curtis Park. Our Building is a large structure that housed the "Single Officers". The building is a sturdy structure with large rooms suitable for the officers. We have done a lot of updating of the rooms and the rest of the building but the flavour is still there.
We are offering, "The Officers Lounge" complete with a sitting area for TV, Sports Games and for movies. As well we have a Pool Table and a vending machine available for your use.
Laundry / Kitchen / BBQ may be available -
The building is very quiet and I believe that you will have a most peaceful sleep.
Today there are River Boat Tours; River Tubing, Kitchen Parties, Bens Fast food Diner (operating since about 1927 in the same building) Brian Mulroney ate here in his college days here (his sons mane is Ben –any connection?); historic towns; old buildings; live evening music in the park with old time dancing at Ritchie's Warf in Newcastle area; various Festivals year around. There is a massive Basilica dominates the Chatham skyline (worth a look); as well as the huge Centennial Bridge spans the wide Miramichi River; a wide spectrum of historic buildings, and people that have been here for generations; as well you can explore the many other unique things that make up this predominantly Irish settlement, known as the 'Irish Capital of Canada'.
Set in some of the finest backwoods possible, easy access to the area and a good kicking off place for outdoor adventure. Hiking in summer; Nordic Skiing and snowmobiling in winter.
Miramichi is also the home to the Water Bombers that help protect the forests of New Brunswick.
Miramichi is home to an NBCC campus; and soon the old college "St. Thomas" returns to Chatham after several decades of being absconded by Fredericton.
Dorm Rooms - $20/night/bed - There are four bunk beds per room. Bedding and towels are optional for an extra of 7.50 for the week (or less)
Private Rooms - 25/night/person (based on double occupancy) = 50/night for the two. These rooms are nicely decorated and with either a double antique bed or with a queen sized bed. The rooms are complete with linen, pillows, towels and soap.

• Cars have plenty of paved parking
• RV's and tents can use the lawn area ($10) per night; kitchen and bath use included
Located near Highway 11 (Bathurst - Moncton Highway)
As you approach Miramichi from the Moncton direction you will watch for the Irving and the Tim Horton's on your left.
If approaching from the Bathurst direction, go over the huge Centennial Bridge and proceed about 2 kilometers. Watch for the Tim Horton's and the Irving on the right.
Turn between the two businesses' onto Maher Street. Drive about 4 blocks and watch for Cole Crescent on your left (you will also see a HOSTEL sign on the lawn). Turn left onto Cole Crescent, we are immediately on your right.

Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.
Examples: 1/16 inch = 62.5 mils; 1/32 inch = 31.25 mils

Midnight Movie (2008)
At a run down theater in a sleepy suburban town, a group of friends attend the midnight screening of a 1970s cult horror film. These unsuspecting teenagers are unaware that the director and star of the movie made a bloody escape from a psych ward five years earlier and may still be on the loose. As the midnight movie begins, the kids heckle the old black-and-white scenes. But, they are jolted when the killer butchers one of their friend--on screen! They soon realize that the killing is not a prank. They are locked inside the theatre and the killer from the movie is after them! Caught between reality and the screen's flickering shadows, are they becoming the unwilling stars of the very horror movie they are watching?

ICBA Supports Efforts to Overturn 1099 Reporting Requirement
Washington, D.C. (January 25, 2011)-The Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA) today announced its support for bipartisan efforts to eliminate an ICBA-opposed tax burden from the health-care reform act. Bipartisan House and Senate legislation would eliminate an unpopular rule dramatically expanding IRS reporting requirements for small businesses.
"ICBA thanks lawmakers on both sides of the aisle who are working to eliminate unnecessary tax burdens on community banks and other small businesses," said Jim MacPhee, ICBA chairman and CEO of Kalamazoo County State Bank, Kalamazoo, Mich. "Forcing even more paperwork requirements on these Main Street institutions would have disastrous consequences for our nation's economic recovery."
The health-care reform act of 2010 included a provision requiring businesses that pay another individual or business $600 or more for goods or services to issue Form 1099s beginning in 2012. Several measures in the House and Senate have been introduced to eliminate this new requirement following an outcry from small businesses on the excessive regulatory burden it would pose.
"Community banks and other small businesses are the engines of our Main Street economies," said ICBA President and CEO Cam Fine said. "ICBA has vigorously opposed the 1099 reporting requirement. We're pleased there is bipartisan support for eliminating this onerous tax reporting mandate and we look forward to working with Congress to overturn it."

Hang tight!
Recipe by Judy
"This is a nice rich mac and cheese. Serve with a salad for a great meatless dinner. Hope you enjoy it."
Watch video tips and tricks
8 ounces
uncooked elbow macaroni
2 cups
shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1/2 cup
grated Parmesan cheese
3 cups
1/4 cup
2 1/2 tablespoons
all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons
1/2 cup
bread crumbs
1 pinch
Very creamy and yummy. If you think your sauce is too runny before pouring it over the macaroni, it's not. I was very nervous that my sauce was not thick enough, but once I poured it over the macaroni and baked it, the dish turned out wonderful!
I agree that a dash of dry mustard is missing from this recipe. Also, if you realllly want a rich taste, try substituting half of the milk with evaporated milk. The evaporated milk gives Mac & Cheese an amazingly rich & creamy taste. Other than those two things, it's pretty good!

I have to laugh at the one who rated this 1 star for the fat and calories... who makes low cal mac & cheese? :) This is a great recipe. Prepare yourself for a heartattack on a plate but well worth it. I added onion powder, garlic powder, paprika and used crumbled ritz crackers as the topping. I thought the sauce was too runny when I poured it in the pan, but as the others said, it really thickens up when in the oven. My 2 year old loves it as do we. We accompanied it with steamed broccoli for a little healthy upswing.
Rave reviews at my house. Can only give 4 stars though as I followed someone else's tips on reducing milk to 1/2C. Adding 2C evapo. milk and 1/2C sour cream. I decided to double the recipe so that we would have leftovers the next day. I put half the mix in one casserole dish and the other in another dish. Baked one and stored the other un-baked one in the fridge to be put in the oven 1/2 hour before dinner the next day. Do not worry that the sauce seems runny when you add it to the noodles. It thickens up A LOT! Right after the cheese melts add it to the noodles and you're in business.
Rich & Creamy. Looked a little bland, so I added minced garlic (1 tbsp), dry mustard powder (1/2 tsp)& used fresh shredded romano instead of parmesan (if you do use parmesan, use fresh shredded, if you use the grated Kraft kind in the shaker, sauce wont be smooth). Show patience with the roux. If yours came out lumpy, you didnt cook roux right or long enough (stir constantly when cooking roux)
I had to try this recipe ever since I read the rating critizing it for being loaded with "fat" ie CHEESE... Duh, that's what Mac and cheese is about!! I made it with large elbow macaroni so the sauce got all inside the pasta... thru in an extra 1/2 inch slice of Velveeta and some white pepper, and jazzed up the crumbs by mixing the crumbs, melted butter, paprika, onion powder, salt & pepper and then sprinkling over the top. Very good "old-home" taste!!
Very good! Everybody went back for seconds. The youngest male in the house (age 21) insisted on taking a bowl to go while his girlfriend took him to buy a couch (LOL!).
The parmesan cheese made the consistency ever so slightly grainy and I might skip this ingredient next time.
This is an amazing base recipe. I boiled the noodles in 1:1 chicken broth and water, added ham and used only one cup of cheddar and added a cup of mozzerella. Wounderful!

The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
Views: 195
This past weekend the Tampa Bay Disc Sports Club held it's Fun N Sun Tournament in Clearwater Florida. It was a great event. We added six extra holes making it a 24 hole par 72 course. There were 120 players and some real great weather, food, disc golfing and fun. The best part of the weekend had to be Ken Climo, our local hero, shooting an unbelievable round with twenty-three consecutive birdies finishing twenty-three down in the second round. He finished fifty-seven (57) down overall for the weekend. That twenty-three down, of course, is the new course record at North East Coachman Park. Thanks Ken for a great show and for helping the club during and after the event.
He was shooting like a true Champ... Said to be a 1100+ rated round... got to see him in action all 3 days.
