Cascade Valley Hospital tests readiness | SLIDESHOW
ARLINGTON — The scenario was potentially life-threatening. Eight sailors from Naval Station Everett were transported from the scene of a toxic chemical spill on base to a portable decontamination tent outside of the Cascade Valley Hospital in Arlington.
Fortunately for all involved, the scenario was only a training exercise, named "Reliant Cloud," whose purpose was to test the emergency response readiness of personnel from Navy Branch Health Clinic Everett, the city of Everett's police and fire departments, and the Cascade Valley Hospital on Wednesday, July 25.
For the eight enlisted sailors who laughed about being "volun-told" to take part in the exercise, it was educational and even refreshing to be moved through the two sides of the portable decontamination tent, the one side for patients who can still walk on their own, and the other for patients who need to be moved via stretcher.
In spite of hospital personnel's concerns that the initial blasts of water had been too cold for their first few simulated patients, all of the sailors agreed that the warm water and even the scrubbing brushes had felt pleasant.
As many Cascade Valley Hospital personnel as Naval Station Everett sailors were available to run through the exercise on site, and the various nurses and technicians concurred with Tammy LeBoeuf, the radiology technician who supervised the exercise, that it proceeded smoothly enough to encourage them for how they might handle the real thing.
"We're always on standby with Naval Station Everett," said LeBoeuf, who noted that Cascade Valley Hospital not only stores equipment that's suited to such situations in emergency preparation trailers, but also within the hospital building itself, which also includes a decontamination shower that's permanently installed as part of the emergency room. "If this really was a mass incident, our trailers and tent would more than likely be stationed in front of the hospital, rather than in back as they were in this exercise."
LeBoeuf praised her team members for suiting up and scrubbing down their patients not only quickly, but also thoroughly, which is no mean feat when you can't actually dress yourself.
"They made sure one another's suits were as secure as they would need to be in a real situation," LeBoeuf said. "You can't just zip yourself up in these suits, because you also need someone else to tape you in."
In an actual event, decontamination personnel would only be able to remain in their suits for half an hour each before trading out, but "Reliant Cloud" went so briskly at Cascade Valley Hospital that even the more restrictive limit of 15 minutes per decontamination worker in hot conditions was never reached.
"We always check everyone's vitals before we strap them in, because we don't want them to have medical emergencies of their own while they're helping others," LeBoeuf said. "If they need to tap out, they just pat themselves on the head. It's not just one department at the hospital that contributes staff to this team, either."
Of the team members that were assembled on July 25, only two hadn't previously participated in the quarterly training exercise, although it was LeBoeuf's first time running the show.
"We've gotten more familiar with the equipment as time has gone on," said registered nurse Carole Faulkner.
"We're much more organized now," said Carole Rhinevault.
"We were short a few people, but we improvised," said LPN/OB Tech Ardis Fureby.
"This is a really good crew, and these drills are really helpful to the outside community," said LeBoeuf, who pointed out that chemical decontamination is no mere hypothetical scenario for Cascade Valley Hospital, which treated patients who were accidentally exposed to tear gas in Darrington last year. "The more we do them, the better we'll be."

Having covered the major trends and events of Asia's property markets in the last year as evident in news and analyst reports from around the globe, from both the established markets and emerging markets perspectives – it's now time to take a peek into our crystal balls, and see what the spirits, oracles and visionaries of global real-estate are predicting will take place in the coming year of 2013.
The Big Picture
Generally speaking, since recovery in the US seems to be on a very mild slope, and the Eurozone is still deeply mired in debt, as previously mentioned – all indicators seem to point to the fact that Asia will continue to be favoured by global property investors world-wide, as it was in 2012 – although with less fervour than in 2012, mainly due to curbs and cooling measures placed on major economies in the region such as China, Singapore and Hong-Kong, which will most likely act as buffers, to try and prevent super-heating in those markets – with the result being that South-East Asia, and in particular Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand, are being hailed these days as favourite destinations for capital flow.
The virginal and unstable nature of these markets, however, comes at a price, as covered extensively in last week's post, and with a clear and flashing neon sign of "Caveat Emptor" – Buyer Beware – for all but the most well-established and localised players. And while a luxury pad in Bangkok might be a nice little trophy asset for high-net-worth individuals, with an all but guaranteed capital growth potential tag attached – one would do well to think carefully before putting their hard-earned money into a new mid-market residential development in the city, considering the vast numbers of empty apartments these freshly built condos seem to be sporting these days, as one reader testifies.
Major Highlights
Japan continues to be the speculation-wary global investor's cash-flow haven, with its super-safe, reliable tenant base and world's highest rental yields – whether capital growth will remain stagnant, as it has been for the past two decades, or whether inflation and growth will indeed return to the world's third-largest economy, as many seem to believe will happen this year, still remains to be seen.
China, now stable and more promising than ever, with what seems to be an increasingly in-control regime in full swing, and fears or uncertainty and rampant corruption slowly receding, will also draw major capital this year – although the sheer size of the country and language/cultural barriers dictate that deal-mining in Asia's "top-dog" economy remains a huge and time-consuming task.
And what everybody and their dog seems to agree on is that Indonesia, and in particular its capital of Jakarta, is the winning bet for the upcoming year – this in spite of the fact that the previous "boom" in the country, which took place about a decade ago, did not end well, and left projects unfinished, billions of dollars in investments lost, and a sharp drop in occupancies, which Indonesia has only began to recover from in the last year or two. Nevertheless, the jury appears unanimous in its vote that, this time around, things are bound to be different.
As always, time will tell – all we can do in the interim is take a closer look at –
The Drill-Down
Price Waterhouse Coopers' Bet – Japan, Australia & Distressed Markets
In their comprehensive analysis labelled "Asia-Pacific Trends in Real-Estate, 2013", the world's largest accounting and professional services firm highlights Japan, and in particular Tokyo, along with Australia, as the preferred destination for property investment in the up and coming year – mainly due to lack of confidence in other markets, beset with uncertainty throughout 2012. The general global opinion being that Japan has finally "bottomed out", and that Australia has a severe lack in local capital to accommodate its' bustling property market, alongside the assumption that institutional investors will continue showing increased interest in real-estate, are the two major causes underpinning this prediction, according to the report.
More opportunistic investors, according to PWC, will find their share of distressed opportunities in both markets as well, as well as in China, and also in logistics and senior housing projects all throughout the region. Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and China's secondary cities are also hailed as attractive, albeit far more speculative, possible moves for the year.
Jones Lang Lasalle's Bet – China & Indonesia
The Asia-Pacific offices of US based commercial property giant JLL also see Indonesia and China, particularly Jakarta, Beijing and Shanghai, as where the money will go this year, with other emerging markets in South-East Asia taking central stage again. Pointing out that Singapore has narrowly escaped recession in the last quarter of 2012, and surprisingly placing far less emphasis on Japan, Hong-Kong and Australia, except on the retail front, the company also points at India, and particularly Pune, as having potential – although, unfortunately, even JLL, heavily vested in the sub-continent, did not fail to mention the country's lack of transparency and regulation as a major turn-off for its clients world-wide.
The company does place SOME emphasis on prospects in Australia, and in particular the Brisbane "fringe" (outer CBD) office market and Sydney industrial developments – all in all, however, the company's general advice regarding the land down under, in contrast to PWC's opinion, is that 2013 will bear the mark of oversupply, with tenants being able to pick their price almost everywhere across the continent, barring Perth, the capital of Western Australia, where demand remains high. This sentiment has been echoed by local Australian property analysts, who claim that Victoria state government and developers are concluding to increase supply in Melbourne, one of Australia's largest cities – courting overseas investors in lieu of local capital (echoing PWC, but drawing a different conclusion altogether) – this in spite of a lack of demand and a bubbling property market, which sees many contracts fall through prior to completion, due to the gap between asking prices and official evaluations.
In the Philippines, where JLL is also strongly active, representatives mention an oversupply of residential units, as well as a strengthening local currency, diminishing the purchasing power of overseas Filippinos, normally big players in the market, as potential activity dampeners.
Knight Frank's Bet – Thailand, Indonesia and China
The UK/NYC global real-estate consultancy firmly believes in the prospects of capital cities Bangkok, in Thailand and Jakarta, in Indonesia, where they predict a 10-20% rise in prices for 2013, as well as in Beijing, China's second biggest city, where they forecast a 5-10% increase – this in sharp contrast to Shanghai, the country's capital city, where they believe prices will drop by approximately 5%.
Knight Frank also advises to steer clear of Hong-Kong, where an imminent property bubble is destined to burst in the coming year or two, and Singapore, due to the strict regulations, cooling measures and curbs implemented, and the fear of more of the same to come, as prices stubbornly continue to creep upwards, albeit slowly, in two of the world's most expensive property arenas.
And Now For The Bad News
Not everyone, however, sees the Asia-Pacific region through the same rose-coloured glasses. A US firm under the umbrella of Chase International, as well as various, smaller and independent analysts, claim the Asian property boom scenario is all too familiar – and that the current atmosphere is much like it was in 1997, prior to the "great Asia financial crisis", which was also spear-headed by a booming property market – then turned into a huge slump that resulted in a major economic downturn all around the region. In their opinion, buyers, who have done well on their investments in 2009-2011, are again losing sight of supply and demand, investing in potential and speculative profits which may or may not occur as a result of urbanisation and an assumed continued crisis in the West – losing sight of sure and tested strategies such as rental returns and long-term capital growth potential in the process.
And almost everyone seems to agree that Vietnam and the Philippines, in particular, are two of the countries that should be avoided for the time being – the Philippines, as mentioned in previous digests, due to its rapid and unsustainable growth, as well as problematic social infrastructure, and Vietnam due to lack of regime and policy stability.
That's it for our three-part yearly summary – hope you enjoyed it. From next week we'll return to the usual weekly news compilations and reporting. As always, would love to hear your thoughts, here or in private correspondence. 🙂
Here's to a lucrative and profitable 2013 – Happy Investing!!!

2008 Tablas Creek Vineyard Esprit de Beaucastel Paso Robles (half bottle)
Producer: Tablas Creek Vineyard
Style: Red Wine
Grape Type: Rhone Blend
Origin: California
Region: Central Coast
Appellation: Paso Robles
93 Points | Stephen Tanzer's IWC - November/December 2010
($50; 38% mourvedre, 30% grenache, 26% syrah and 6% counoise) Bright red. Enticing aromas of raspberry, potpourri, licorice and fresh herbs. Lush, broad and sweet but structured, with an exotic candied fruit quality giving this dense, well-constituted wine plenty of early sex appeal. Finishes sweet and spicy, with a fine dusting of tannins and outstanding length. This is already delicious but has the balance to age.

Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease, which affects a large number of older adults. Many older adults with OA are physically inactive, which can contribute to reduced functional capability, quality of life, and an increased risk of falls. Although hydrotherapy is often recommended for older adults with OA, less is known about aqua fitness (AF), a widely available form of aqua-based exercise.
Purpose: To compare the effect of an AF program and a seated aqua-based exercise program on a range of functional measures and quality of life among older adults with OA.
Methods: Thirty-five older adults with OA were allocated to an AF group or an active control group who performed seated exercises in warm water for 12 weeks. The primary outcome measure was the timed up-and-go (TUG) test; other measures included step test, sit-to-stand (STS) test, handgrip strength test, 400-m walk test, Arthritis Impact Measurement Scale-Short Form (AIMS2-SF), and Falls Efficacy Scale-International (FES-I).
Results: FES-I scores improved significantly in the AF group compared with the control group (P = 0.04). Within-group analysis indicated both groups significantly improved their 400-m walk time (P = 0.04) and that the AF group significantly improved its step test right (P = 0.02) and left (P = 0.00) and the AIMS2-SF total score (P = 0.02). No significant change in TUG, STS, or handgrip strength was observed for either group.
Conclusions: Aqua fitness may offer a number of positive functional and psychosocial benefits for older adults with OA, such as a reduced fear of falling and increased ability to perform everyday tasks.

Mayer Hawthorne announced on his Twitter account that he'd be serving up a free song every Monday leading up to the release of his first major-label album.
Called #MayerMonday, the free-music-each-week tactic was popularized by Kanye West in the run-up to his "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" album.
Hawthorne's first free tune this week was a remix of "A Long Time." Earlier this month, he released the video for the song, which is the first single from "How Do You Do." For the remix, he again teamed up with tourmates Chromeo; they'll be stopping by the Majestic Theatre on September 26.
Check out the song below.

To the Readers' Forum:
In some countries if you, as a foreigner, cross into another country's boundaries by mistake, you're trespassing, and automatically you're sent to prison.
In America, an illegal is entitled to certain things: free healthcare, jobs (til the employer gets caught), free education, and now free scholarships if you go to the right colleges, like Berkeley in southern California.
I could see why the 200 they're giving scholarships to would be "assets" to our country: cheaper labor namely. I don't care, these people need to be tossed in jail until they're deported, treated the same way our people are when we're treated as illegals in another land. Then maybe the millions we save by not providing them free healthcare in the hospitals could be utilized somewhere else.

UMass riot after loss 'troubling'
AMHERST - University of Massachusetts-Amherst officials have pledged to move quickly in taking disciplinary action following a riot after the football team's defeat in Friday night's national championship game.
Eleven people, including 10 students, were arrested in connection with a riot that occurred after UMass was defeated by Appalachian State 28-17 in the NCAA Division 1 title game in Chattanooga, Tenn. Two police officers were injured.
More than 1,800 students began moving into the plaza of the Southwest residential area shortly after 11 p.m., about 10 minutes after the game ended, according to the university. A riot ensued, and order was not restored until 1:50 a.m.
The students who were arrested face charges of disorderly conduct and failure to disperse.
Michael Gargano, vice chancellor for student affairs and campus life, said alcohol and substance abuse were significant factors leading to the riot. He said discipline to be meted out to the offending students may include expulsion and loss of this semester's academic record.
"I'm outraged and terribly disappointed in the students involved in this disturbance," Gargano said in a statement.
"Whether they were active participants, urging on lawbreakers, or being bystanders, they in some way contributed to what transpired. This type of behavior hurts the majority of our students, who are studying and preparing for final exams and are at the university for all the right reasons."
Campus spokesman Edward F. Blaguszewski, who last night did not have the names of those arrested, said police were pelted with bottles, cans, rocks, trash cans and bicycles. A number of small fires were set, and windows along the plaza were smashed.
More than 60 officers in riot gear responded to the scene, including officers from the UMass, state and Amherst police. One UMass officer and one Amherst officer suffered what were thought to be minor injuries....

GRAND RAPIDS, MI – In the 1996 film, "Shine," about the life of pianist David Helfgott, the artist struggles to play Sergei Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 3.
Actor Geoffrey Rush, as Helfgott, says in the film, "It's a mountain. The hardest piece you could Everest play."
Whether it's really the toughest of all time for piano and orchestra is open for debate. But the 40-minute work that pianists admire, respect and sometimes fear is near the top of everyone's list of hard-to-play works.
Pianist Andrew von Oeyen joins the Grand Rapids Symphony this week to play Rachmaninoff's Third Concerto, one of the most technically challenging works in standard repertoire for piano soloist and orchestra.
Von Oeyen has made several past appearances with the Grand Rapids Symphony.
"He's very good, very appealing, both on and off stage," said music director David Lockington. "I'm really excited to do the Rachmaninoff with him."
Lockington leads the Grand Rapids Symphony in an all-Russian program on Friday and Saturday in DeVos Performance Hall.
The second half of the features Modest Mussorgsky's brief Prelude to his unfinished opera "Khovanstchina," and Peter Ilych Tchaikovsky's "Capriccio Italien," a fantasy of Italian folk melodies.
"There's a nice build through the concert's second half," Lockington said. "The orchestra will end with Borodin's 'Polovtsian Dances' as a showpiece."
Borodin's "Polovtsian Dances" are from his opera "Prince Igor," a four-hour production seldom performed in the United States. The Metropolitan Opera in New York City, however, opens a production on Feb. 6 with nine performances over the next four weeks including a live broadcast as part of its "Live in HD" Series on March 1.
American audiences, however, are familiar with several of the melodies were adapted for the 1953 musical, "Kismet," most notably, "Stranger in Paradise."
The Classical Series concerts this week open with the piano concerto that Rachmaninoff wrote in 1909 especially to play on his first concert tour of the United States.
One of four piano concertos Rachmaninoff wrote, it was the composer's favorite.
A pianist blessed with unusually large hands, Rachmaninoff played with power as well as with clarity and precision and was considered one of the world's greatest pianists of his time.
The pianist to whom the work was dedicated, Josef Hofmann, may have been the greatest of all. But the Polish pianist refused to perform the concerto in public, saying his hands weren't large enough to play it, though there may have been other reasons, too.
The Third Piano Concerto is one of the two works – the other was Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No. 1 – that pianist Van Cliburn played in 1958 to win the first International Tchaikovsky Competition, an event that rocketed the 23-year-old Texan to international fame, receiving the first and only ticker-tape parade in New York City ever given for a classical musician.
Andrew Von Oeyen, a California native, who grew up near Malibu, surfing, swimming and kayaking, last was in DeVos Hall to play Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 4 with the Grand Rapids Symphony in October 2005.
But the First Prize winner in the 2001Leni Fe Bland Foundation National Piano Competition has appeared many times in West Michigan, most recently with violinist Sarah Chang for St. Cecilia Music Center's Great Artist Series concert in October 2011.

Von Oeyen, 34, was one of several pianists featured in the PBS-TV documentary, "In the Key of G," highlighting several Gilmore Young Artists. Von Oeyen's segments were filmed in Grand Rapids in 2004 as he rehearsed and performed Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 3 with the Grand Rapids Symphony during its four-concert Beethoven Festival in the DeVos Center for Arts and Worship.
"They really filmed us for days and hours on end," Von Oeyen said following the documentary's debut in May 2005. "They took so many minutes of us playing and talking, it must have been an enormous task to decide what to do."

son, missing him and striking her once, police said.
No information regarding an arrest was reported.

Last month, actor John Goodman helped spread the word in New Orleans about "The Monuments Men," in the form of a red-carpet screening at The National World War II Museum of the George Clooney-directed World War II drama. Now, the film's publicity tour is taking Goodman to a slightly bigger stage.
Goodman will be appearing on two national talk shows Thursday night to promote the film.
First, Goodman will appear with his mostly A-list "Monuments Men" castmates at 10:35 p.m. CST on ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live." Appearing with Goodman will be Clooney, Matt Damon, Bill Murray, Cate Blanchett and Bob Balaban.
Then, Goodman will make a solo appearance on "The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson." That show, which airs locally at 11:35 p.m. CST on CBS, will also feature a separate interview with "That Awkward Moment" and "Need for Speed" actress Imogen Poots.
In the meantime, you can find out more about "The Monuments Men" -- based on the true story of a team of U.S. soldiers tasked with rescuing works of priceless art during the war -- in the featurette at right. You can also check out the "Monuments Men" trailer here.

Kia Ray
I've been seeing these on the road for a while now and was wanting to get a closer look. Sometimes we like to go visit car showrooms and pretend to be interested in buying. Unfortunately the salesmen need to work on their manners, but I'm not whinging here – this is about the Ray.
My first impression is that it looked like Hyundai had captured a Nissan Cube and a Nissan March/Micra, interbred them and raised the offspring on kimchi. Which is to say, it's a slightly malnourished rip-off of the Cube; the wheels are noticeably smaller, it's smaller inside and I'll be the engine is smaller.
And yet, the inside room of the Ray is surprisingly good. It breaks through that thinking that if you want a small car (ie. small engine = small fuel bill) then you're going to be cramped, if not in the front seats, then definitely in the back. The Ray's front and back seats are both super-roomy. Big windows, and even the driver's position is really upright and at a good elevation. The generalisation is that there's a bunch of 'soccer mums' who get 4WDs because they want to be able to see out properly and not feel monstered by other 4WDs on the road—maybe the Ray will address this because of the car's overall height.
I don't know what it drives like or what the top speed is but considering I don't even drive cars at all, it hardly matters. Often the korean companies will do this—see something that another country has made (in this case, Japan & the Cube) then set out to make a cheaper version. And the usual outcome for me is that I look at them as being inferior but in this case it seems to have worked. We once went and took a look at the Nissan Cube, and when you see them on the road you kind of think – hey, small car. But then seeing it up close and sitting in it and it's, how do I say this, huge. And apparently the Cube has an engine in it with a bit of oomph—which is to appeal to young folks in western countries. With the Ray's smaller engine and even less oomph, (also, I'm pretty sure there's no option for a manual, it only auto transmission) it probably won't do well in Australia/America even if it was released there but Europe: more chance. But for city driving, like here in Seoul, it's perfect.
It's pretty amazing that they (_they_) can make 1litre petrol engines that work these days. Full electric engines that make Jetson car noises not far away.

Flavia Pennetta arrived back at Arthur Ashe Stadium and had one question: "Where is it?"
She couldn't wait to see the most recent addition to the photos of past champions displayed at the U.S. Open. It's been almost one year since Pennetta affixed her name to that list, yet as she returned to Flushing Meadows on Friday, that moment felt much longer ago than 12 months.
The 2015 U.S. Open final was not only when the 33-year-old Italian won her first major title. It was also when she announced to the world that she planned to retire.
"I had the chance to say to everyone in the perfect moment in the perfect way," Pennetta told The Associated Press...

Both sides in ex-Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick's restitution case are going to the "Good Book" for help.
Defense attorneys and prosecutors are evoking Old and New Testament scriptures in filings with the state Appeals Court.
Prosecutors wrote "All things should be done decently and in order" from I Corinthians in a Feb. 26 answer to Kilpatrick's appeal to the higher court to postpone his arraignment on probation violation charges.
Kilpatrick failed to meet a $79,011 payment toward $1 million in restitution to the city.
The Detroit Free Press reports that defense attorney Michael Alan Schwartz quoted Psalms Wednesday in a response: "Yet he, because he is full of compassion, forgave their sin and did not destroy; many times he turned away his anger and didn't rouse all his wrath."

But doesn't meet with provincial counterpart
Federal Justice Minister Peter MacKay speaks at the Delta St. John's Hotel & Conference Centre on Monday afternoon. — Photo by Joe Gibbons/The Telegram
Justice Minister Peter MacKay was in St. John's Monday to hold consultations for a
federal victims bill of rights, but he didn't meet with his provincial counterpart, Justice Minister Darin King.
MacKay acknowledged that since the provincial government runs the justice system, he won't be able to do anything without the help of the province.
"How we will go about this will require careful co-ordination with the provinces. It will require adopting best practices from across the country to see that information is in fact shared," MacKay said.
The Conservative government is promising to introduce federal legislation creating a victims bill of rights in the fall session of the House of Commons.
"Victims want to be able to work within a criminal justice system that treats them with courtesy, with dignity, and allows them, at the very least, to emerge from the system feeling that they have a system that's sensitive to their needs," MacKay told reporters before the start of closed-door consultations with members of the legal community in St. John's.
A spokesman for King said that the two ministers couldn't find time in their schedules for a meeting.
The spokesman for King said that the province will wait to see what the proposed federal legislation looks like before the provincial government decides how to handle it.
"This legislation has been discussed at recent federal-provincial-territorial justice ministers' meetings, including the most recent one in April," the government spokesman said.
"While the concept of such a bill of rights certainly has merit and would undoubtedly impact the justice system in Newfoundland and Labrador, we would not be in a position to fully comment until we actually see the draft legislation. We do expect to provide formal input in the coming weeks and we also expect the Bill of Rights to once again be discussed among Justice ministers at upcoming meetings."

- Tory crime agenda dealt a blow
- CETA arguments 'stupid': minister
MacKay was asked by reporters who will pay for additional services and costs that may come as a result of the bill of rights; he said it's too soon to say.
"That's cart before the horse. Let's see what the legislation looks like. Let's see what new, if any, responsibilities will be required within the system," he said.
Representatives at MacKay's meeting included the Newfoundland and Labrador Law Society, the RNC, the NL Sexual Assault Crisis & Prevention Centre and the Coalition Against Violence.
Several groups present declined to speak to The Telegram, saying they were mainly there to listen to what MacKay had to say, and not so much to offer their perspective.
Connie Pike, with the Coalition Against Violence, said she thinks a victims bill of rights is a good idea, and one that she'd like to see implemented.
Pike said that altogether too often, accused criminals are put ahead of victims in the justice system. She said politicians all need to be committed to changing that.
"At the very least, there should be equivalent concern and attention paid to victims of violence. Right now there's not," she said. "The bill alone is not enough. It's good to have the paperwork done. It's to have the writing. It's good to have the legislation. But there also has to be a political will to drive it and to really make it real for people."

A man facing drug charges turned down a 15-year plea deal and rolled the dice with an Orleans Parish jury, which convicted him Wednesday night of possession with intent to distribute cocaine.
District Attorney Leon Cannizzaro's office said Thursday it will seek to put away Kerry Smith for 30 years to life under the state's habitual offender law. Smith, 35, is scheduled for sentencing Sept. 1.
Smith has prior convictions for simple burglary, possession of cocaine and attempted possession of a firearm with a controlled dangerous substance, all from the 1990s.
Police on patrol in the Iberville Housing Development saw him dealing drugs outside his apartment in July 2009 and found him holding two bags with more than 110 pieces of crack, according to a news release.
In another drug case this week, a jury found Anthony Hankton guilty of attempted possession with intent to distribute cocaine, the DA's office said.
On March 7 a resident approached two New Orleans police officers at St. Charles Avenue and Josephine Street, pointed to Hankton and told the officers Hankton had just threatened his life.
Hankton, a relative of accused murderers Telly and Andre Hankton, ran a block before police grabbed him, patted him down and discovered a bag containing 33 wrapped rocks of crack, the DA's office said.
While on bond, Anthony Hankton, 24, was arrested last month on suspicion of aggravated assault and criminal damage to property. Following the verdict Tuesday, Buras remanded him to jail. A first-time offender, he faces a maximum 15-year prison term at a sentencing scheduled for Oct. 27. Hankton is due back in court Sept. 5 on the charges from last month's arrest.

When the Detroit Pistons began their first of six straight 50 win seasons that saw them get to the Eastern Conference Finals each of those seasons, Piston fans were used to being disappointed.
New Piston coach Rick Carlisle was a rookie head coach and had his work cut out for him in that 2001-2002 season. Carlisle changed starting lineups several times during his first season as head coach, but had Chucky Atkins, Michael Curry and Cliff Robinson as starters for most of the season and the playoffs. Now Michael Curry is the Piston rookie head coach and in charge of the death of the Piston era that brought so much success.
April 27, Washington Post: It's bad enough that the Pistons had their worst regular season in more than eight years, but it was more disconcerting watching that once proud team simply roll over against the Cleveland Cavaliers. In getting swept in a 99-78 whimper on Sunday, the Pistons didn't even bother to muster the energy to wave a white flag. Even worse, they watched Cavaliers fans take over the Palace of Auburn Hills and serenade LeBron James with humiliating chants of "MVP! MVP!"
Tayshaun Prince's eyes appeared to be watering as he watched the final seconds click down. He understood what was happening. Detroit wasn't just losing a game or a series. After reaching the conference finals six consecutive years, winning one championship and making two trips to the NBA Finals, the Pistons, as we once knew them, are done. Bad Boys Part II to just plain bad. The anti-superstar, five-fingers-forming-one-fist movement is officially over.
From 2002-09, the Pistons gave us DeeeTroit Basketball, raucous sellout crowds, Ben Wallace's unkempt Afro, Chauncey B-b-b-billups and his big shots, "Gauransheed" Wallace and his gaudy championship belt, masked man Richard Hamilton running around screens, elastic armed Tayshaun Prince chasing down Reggie Miller and Larry Brown showing how to "play the right way."...
ESPN's Chris Broussard wrote an excellent column about how it all crumbled this season, with Iverson providing no answers and first-year Coach Michael Curry unable to extort confidence from his veterans, most notably Hamilton (The story also had this interesting line about Flip Saunders: "Detroit's management had watched the players blatantly disrespect and curse out Saunders for years ...").
The article from the Post ends with an explanation of why the Pistons could never seem to win a second Title, and the reason for the eventual demise of the team in it's current form.
[T]he reason Detroit was unable to win another championship wasn't necessarily because it lacked a marquee superstar, but more because of complacency, arrogance and an over-inflated sense of accomplishment. After winning the title in 2004, the Pistons didn't display that same hunger that drove them to dismantle the Los Angeles Lakers in that NBA Finals upset. And it showed during some playoff moments (Rasheed Wallace leaving Robert Horry wide open; the Dwyane Wade and LeBron James explosions) when they let down their guard and expected that championship swagger to just kick in... it never did. And ... it never will for that group. But the memories were great, to say the least.
The 'end of an era' has been proclaimed from many media outlets, but it could also mark a new beginning. Joe Dumars has positioned himself in the catbirds seat this summer, being one of only a few teams with the cap flexibility to make major changes without the fear of exceeding the dreaded luxury tax.
Although it is entirely possible for Joe Dumars to totally restructure his team within one year, it's not going to be an easy job. Though Piston fans have to hold Dumars accountable for Joe's moves, or lack thereof. Remember that Joe did not make a move during the trade deadline in February when teams were scrambling to shed salaries. Dumars had the expiring contracts of Rasheed Wallace and Allen Iverson when there were big name players like Amare Stoudemire on the market. Tyson Chandler was also available, and even traded. There is no doubt that Dumars could have made moves before the deadline with those expiring contracts.
So now, after all is said and done, Joe has to make good on that promise of cap space. He has to make the moves that will help turn around a franchise who were were swept out of the first round of the playoffs and had more of the opposing team fans at the Palace than Piston fans as buzzer sounded to end the last game of the sweep. No excuses.

We began in Evanston in 1975. In 1982, a contest was held among local grade-school students to rename the restaurant. We're still using the winning name, The Wiener and Still Champion.
In 2005, a new owner committed himself to bring new energy and new ideas to The Wiener and Still Champion. As a long-time employee of the 30-year old Winnetka / Hubbard Woods hot dog stand M and H Grill (until the restaurant closed its doors in 2003) and after working for a spice/flavor company, Gus has a unique combination of food industry experience and a passion for hot dog stands.
The Wiener and Still Champion continues to serve top-quality products, like all-beef hot dogs, fresh-ground burgers, homemade chili and french fries that are hand-cut from whole Idaho potatoes. And don't miss the more unique items, like our famous Dippin' Dogs (deluxe corn dogs hand-dipped as you watch), country-fried bacon and country-fried gyros.
But, please take note, everything is made freshly for you, in house, when ordered. It might take a little time. We hope you'll be patient.

What ever happened to the AP movie screenings?
Quoting GhostHostJeff, who was quoting Al:I've called the AP line and checked the AP website, but no word on any screenings. Does anyone have any more info?
Lincoln makes way for Disney movies
According to the front page of Miceage.com from Al:
The addition of Voices of Liberty out front this summer has done nothing to help the low attendance at the Mr. Lincoln show. Beginning August 23rd the theater is going to be used for special AP screenings of classic Disney movies on select evenings through October. APs will be able to vote online or at the park for which movies they want to see on the big screen, and then sign up for specific dates and specific movies. The upcoming AP movie nights should be the busiest the 400 seat Mr. Lincoln theater has been in decades.

To the Editor:
On May 7, the residents of Berkeley Heights will be going to the polls in a Special Election to allow or not allow the Berkeley Aquatic's Center to tie into the Berkeley Heights Sewer System.
In their flyer, the BAC states that they are "a great community resource" and that they will provide opportunities to the community. I believe leopards do not change their spots. In my experience with this business, the BAC either didn't permit or actively discouraged their top swimmers from competing with their high school team. They also didn't let the Gov. Livingston swim team practice at their facility. Actions speak louder than words.
At the public forum, the BAC compared themselves to Lifetime Fitness. Lifetime Fitness was a good neighbor during Hurricane Sandy. They opened their facility to non-members to shower, charge up and stay warm. Those are the actions of a "great community resource."
I urge Berkeley Heights residents to vote "No" on May 7.

If the rain and the city wasn't so cold
You wouldn't be here now
Looking for fun
You dreamed of the sun
But woke to thunder clouds
Oh, don't say you won't stay
A little while
I do regret, the times I let you go
And run, wild
Now the wind in the alleys ...low
Haunts just like a ghost
You walk through the door
Asking for more
Treating me just like a ghost
Oh, don't say you won't stay
A little while
I do regret, the times I let you go
And run, wild x 2

Chelsea Butler, Angelisa Dennis and Olivia Crane give Butler's nine-year-old brother Cody Coward a lift.
— Photo by Danette Dooley/Special to The Telegram
Music blared, children danced and cheerleaders showed their moves both on the floor and in the air on Sunday as Memorial University's cheerleading team held a unique event to raise money for their squad and for the Candlelighters Association of Newfoundland and Labrador.
Samsung Canada sponsored the challenge which pits Memorial's cheerleading squad against nine national contenders for a top prize of $2,500.
While there are also prizes of $1,500 and $1,000 up for grabs, cheerleader Angelisa Dennis, who entered her team in the contest, says MUN Cheer is aiming to come out on top.
"If we win the $2,500 we'll use the money to help fund our trip to the nationals in Brampton, Ont. and Cheer Expo in Halifax," Dennis said.
The music party — which drew more than 125 people — was a great way to raise awareness about Memorial's 43-member cheerleading team, Dennis said.
The team currently holds the national championship title. it has participated and volunteered in various events over the past few months including the Terry Fox Run, Run for the Cure and Candlelighters' Night of Delight fundraiser.
MUN Cheer is donating half of the money raised through the dance party to the provincial Candlelighters Association.
The charity provides support and services to families of children diagnosed with cancer. The association stocks a food-and-beverage cupboard for oncology patients and their parents at the Janeway and hosts a weeklong camp for children diagnosed with cancer and their siblings.
"In some form or another we have all been affected by cancer and this is our way of fighting back and coming together to find a cure," Dennis said.
Olivia Crane said volunteering at Candlelighters Association events is an opportunity to meet some of the children affected by cancer.
"We enjoyed helping them before and we loved meeting the children. The money we raise will help send these children to camp," she said.
Sunday's event included a performance by Wonderbolt Circus and a photo booth where cheerleaders, children and others who came out to show their support hammed it up for the camera wearing colourful hats, bunny ears, giant plastic glasses and other costume accessories.
After having their picture taken with Memorial's mascot Sammy the Seahawk, children and toddlers tried to outdance Sammy and the cheerleaders.
MUN Cheer coach Erin Goudie said she's pleased that the team has made it into the finals and thankful to Dennis for entering the squad into the competition.
Samsung Canada provided an audio dock for a playlist challenge at the party.
"And they've given us the sponsors we needed to throw this bash today. To get this far we had to go to the Samsung Audio Dock microsite on the CampusPerks community page to make a profile. We had to get people to support us. We had enough 'supports' to be in the top nine and now we'll be judged on how we did today," Goudie said.
If eight-year-old Cody Coward's reaction to the entertainment is any indication, the cheerleaders pulled off a great event.
He thinks they're really good, he said, after taking off the big wig and a black-and-white striped prisoner's outfit he wore for his picture.
"My sister Chelsea (Butler) is on the team. They did some back flips. They're taking pictures. They're selling cupcakes. They're having a great time. And I know they are going to raise money for Candlelighters."
When asked what Candlelighters means, Cody said he thinks it has something to do with praying.
"And you can help people and cure their disease."
Memorial fraternity Sigma Theta Pi is also among the top nine contenders for the prize money.
This is a corrected version.

Update: Turnpike reopens.
Traffic is being detoured around the crash that closed a 65-mile stretch of the Pennsylvania Turnpike west of Carlisle Thursday.
The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission is reporting the westbound lane of the Turnpike is now closed between the Carlisle Interchange and Breezewood exits due to a multi-vehicle accident.
Westbound motorists should exit at Carlisle, which is Exit 226, then take Route 11 north to Interstate 81 south.
Once on I-81, drivers are advised to travel 58 miles south into Maryland to Interstate 70 west for 48 miles to Route 30 east for less then a mile, and then re-enter the Turnpike at Breezewood, which is Exit 161.
The detour will add about 30 to 45 minutes to the trip, according to the commission.
No injuries have been reported in the crash, the commission reported.

OMG - where WAS everyone? This was a tremendous set of talks, with a small attendance. We were amazed and fascinated by the info and pictures. Bought a book and had it signed. Engaging lecturer, answered lots of questions. We'll see anything else like this Trepany makes available. Thanks for these.

To the Editor:
As a parent who has raised two diabetic children, being responsible for their medical insurance, deductibles and other expenses, I was concerned how the health care reform bill would affect my children.
To get more information, I attended a meeting at the Estherville hospital, where a representative of U.S. Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, was speaking on the then-pending health care law now known as Obamacare.
After listening to his presentation, I talked to him about specifics regarding people with chronic illnesses such as asthma and diabetes, if they are insured under any government health care plan. He explained that they will be "categorized" by the government. I then asked him if that meant that these people may or may not get care, he reluctantly responded yes, that is what it means.
To be put under the government health care plans, all that needs to happen is a change in your current plan. It can be as simple as a change in your deductible. If the company you work for decides to opt out and pay the government fines instead of offering insurance, that puts you into a government-run health care plan.
If that happens to you, be prepared to see restrictions in care. These restrictions will affect people who have Medicare and Medicaid plans as well. These mandates are scheduled to take affect beginning in January 2013.
I am perfectly aware of issues with health care, but having the government, not a doctor, determine the care you will receive is not the answer.

Our opinion: Planning a move
January 30, 2013
Remember stacking dominoes in curvy lines, then tipping one at one end to watch them all fall down in a pleasing way, a sort of brief stab at perpetual motion? Restructuring the Warren County School......
Grantland, not only has Sugar Grove talked of charter but while many in Sheffield are happy about the K-12, many are also upset about it and disagree with the closing of their elementary school. In fact, both AVES and SGES were issues discussed during public comment at the closing hearing.
1 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Grantland, Hufnagel specifically told the board and public at the closing hearing that the administration would not bring this forward unless enrollment declines enough and was projecting 3 years from now. That was only 6 months ago. Enrollment has not changed significantly in 6 months. I can name 4 who have spoke about the issues at WAEC and concerns over its population, including class sizes. Many items on the agenda for the committee meeting were items that the board did not ask for but yet administration brought them forward. I'm not saying to never close South Street, I'm saying that I disagree with the timing. I disagree looking at this for solely monetary reasons instead of looking at the impact to the students.
1 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Ther was already talk of a elementary charter school in Sugar Grove. It surfaced when the dicussion of moving the kids to Russell, and will increase once they relize it will be closing.
2 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Limited: With the sixth graders going back to Beaty, there will be about 100 more kids at WAEC next year with k-1 there. This years K class is bigger than last years, 164 to 146 at South Street. There will always be reasons not to do something - sometimes in life you have to bite the bullet and go. I hate to assume things but bottom line - this has to pass the board by a 2/3rd vote. Hufnagel wouldn't have brought this up if the board wasn't behind him. Which four steps up and stops this?
Oldgran: You're right there has been nothing said against the other schools closing. This inane bickering about what ifs, what might happen when that comes up has to stop.
0 Agrees | 2 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
The TO would like you to believe that the board confirmed this but it was administration, not the board. Administration was reminded during the meeting that the board will make the final decision on this closure. This closure was not suppose to happen until the enrollment declined. The decline has not been significant enough for this to happen. Both schools are full. The class sizes are the largest in the district. WAEC has lunch, playground, overcrowding, safety, and parking/traffic issues. We should not be doing this next year. In a few years, yes. Right now the impacts to the children must be questioned.
2 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
At the closing hearing and following it, there has been complaints of closing the outlying schools.
0 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
I have heard no protests about closing Sugar Grove, Russell, Allegheny Valley, or Sheffield Elementary.
1 Agrees | 2 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
When it comes time to closing the out lying schools, the closing of South Street, along with all the other schools in Warren, will be a distant memory. The protest will start, how dare you pick on us and close our school, we will lose or identity.

Every Saturday on its editorial page, the Gloucester County Times cheers those who make our area a better place in which to live and jeers those whose actions merit derision.
- CHEERS: To fast, fast relief. Kudos to all in the Woodbury Heights area who have united around salon owner Ron Russo and his girlfriend Delia Rodriguez, after a Feb. 26 fire that badly damaged their home and Russo's business. Those pitching in include Capital Bank and Pat's Pizza, resident Rose Yerka, Chick-fil-A, Lambs Road Cathedral in Sewell and New Beginnings Church in Glassboro.
- CHEERS: To some jazzy winners, as suggested by a reader. The Deptford High School jazz ensemble placed first in its initial appearance in the Berklee High School Jazz Festival, which brought 200 units from 13 states to Boston. The ensemble was first in the "Large Ensemble Class 3" category. Congrats to band director Carl Cox and the 17 young musicians.
- CHEERS: To an engaged couple's "Share Your Love" story. Christina Davidson and Frank Tucci of Washington Township — who met at a young widowers' support group — have warmed the hearts of fans in a quest to win a $2,500 David's Bridal contest. Davidson lost her first husband on July 4, 2009, and Tucci lost his first wife on Labor Day that same year. They're slated to wed Oct. 6. To vote for them, visit "Share Your Love" on the David's Bridal Facebook page.
- JEERS: To an apples to oranges comparison. In the crossfire over plans for a Rowan University/Rutgers-Camden merger, Rowan acknowledges that it issued an erroneous fact sheet (though it says it did so unintentionally) that gave Rowan students a 92-point SAT score advantage. Rutgers-Camden included certain disadvantaged students in its figures, but Rowan did not. And, Rowan also shaved 26 points off the Rutgers average. Apples-to-apples, Rutgers scores beat Rowan, 1096 to 1078. Mistake or not, Rowan should be more careful.
- CHEERS: To bringing it home, long ago. We don't know if Milton Keen, 91, of Pitman, is the oldest living former Gloucester County Times print edition paperboy, but as Bob Shryock noted in his March 15 column, Keen has to be close. He delivered what used to be called the Woodbury Daily Times in Swedesboro in the mid-1930s. And even though he's been retired from Atlantic Electric for 34 years, he's spent much of his time volunteering.
If you know of someone or something you would like to nominate for a cheer or a jeer, send the information to Cheers and Jeers, Gloucester County Times, 309 S. Broad St., Woodbury, NJ 08096.

The second shooting occurred around 5 a.m. Saturday, when a man in his 20s was killed on a city street. A woman who was nearby was shot once in the foot, but she was treated at a hospital and released.
The other victim, a 17-year-old city resident, was fatally shot on a city street around 3:20 a.m. today.
No arrests have been made in the shootings.
