OKLAHOMA CITY — The Republican members of the Oklahoma congressional delegation offered the following statements concerning the recent 'Fiscal Cliff' legislation:
Senator Inhofe:
U.S. Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.), a leading Senate conservative, joined a bi-partisan group of Senators in voting to avert a fiscal cliff and delay sequestration for two months. In a late night vote of 89-8, the deal permanently extends Bush tax cuts for a majority of Americans, prevents a death tax increase, and fixes the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT): "While this deal to avoid the fiscal cliff is not perfect, Senate Democrats have caved to making permanent the Bush tax cuts for 99 percent of Americans," said Inhofe. "The deal will cement the tax cuts for individuals making less than $400,000 a year or $450,000 for families, and permanently fix the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Even though President Obama wanted to extend the death tax exemption only up to $1 million, this deal extends the exemption for up to $5 million, $10 million for couples. As I have travelled around Oklahoma, it has been clear to me that this is the single most important issue for our farmers, ranchers, and family owned businesses. "One of my greatest concerns about the fiscal cliff has been the devastating cuts that would happen to our military due to defense sequestration. This deal avoids those cuts for two months to allow for a better solution. While I would like to have sequestration addressed, I am hopeful the deal's two-month delay will help us better prioritize deep spending cuts while protecting our military and national security. "The deal also includes an important one year extension of the farm bill, and extends for one year provisions that prevent doctors from being forced to take rate cuts for treating Medicare patients. "I do not agree with the deal's extension of unemployment benefits for another year or that it only achieves a small deficit reduction. I look forward to negotiating more spending cuts when we deal with the debt limit increase. Even though President Obama wanted that included in this deal, we are wisely waiting to address that separately so that we can have better spending cuts. After four years of Obama running up $5.3 trillion in deficit spending, any deal to raise the debt ceiling must be contingent upon making significant cuts to get our fiscal house in order. "This deal should be seen as a victory for conservatives as it achieves for the first time in decades a bipartisan agreement for permanent tax cuts for a majority of Americans. These tax cuts will help to restore certainty and encourage economic growth."
Senator Coburn:
"While this bill is far from perfect, it does prevent massive tax increases while making tax cuts permanent for 99 percent of Americans. Congress and the president, however, have a lot of work to do to address our long-tern spending problem. Our debt – which is 120 percent of our economy if you count federal, state and local debt – is still the greatest threat to our national security. We will never address that threat until Congress and the president acknowledge that the only way to save entitlement programs is to change them."
Rep. Sullivan: No statement
Rep. Lucas:
"I am pleased the House passed H.R. 8, The American Taxpayer Relief Act on Tuesday, which provides permanent tax relief for families, farmers, and small businesses and prevents an enormous tax increase on all Americans. Specifically, this bill locks in place current tax rates for middle class families, provides a permanent patch for the alternative minimum tax (AMT), and holds down the death tax for farmers and ranchers. It postpones the sequestration, which would have caused harmful cuts to our national defense during a time when we are still fighting a war in Afghanistan. Further, this bill provides a one year extension of the 2008 farm bill, which gives agricultural producers certainty and allows the Agriculture Committees in Congress to continue working on a five-year comprehensive farm bill. "This legislation is only one step in the process of solving Washington's spending problem. Now it's time for the President to work with Congress to address our $16 trillion dollar debt and find responsible, commonsense ways to cut spending and grow our economy. I will continue to work with my colleagues in the House of Representatives in this effort and protect hard-working American taxpayers."
Rep. Cole:
Congressman Tom Cole (OK-04) released the following statement after the House approved the Senate-passed fiscal cliff agreement to extend and make permanent low tax rates for individuals earning up to $400,000 per year and families earning $450,000. The legislation delays devastating military cuts for two months and prevents numerous other damaging tax policies including an increase in the Alternative Minimum Tax. "This agreement is far from perfect, but preventing the largest tax increase in history and making tax cuts permanent for 98 percent of taxpayers is a major victory for American workers and for the economy. "While I would prefer a combination of tax cuts and spending cuts, passage of this bill lays the groundwork for significant spending reductions in the coming weeks. With tax rate increases off the table, President Obama and Senate Democrats will be forced to confront reality and accept spending and entitlement reforms. "Passage of permanent tax relief ensures that the upcoming budget debates will be solely focused on spending restraint. Congress will have three significant opportunities in the next three months to reduce the deficit when we debate the debt ceiling, the across-the-board sequestration cuts, and the government funding bill that expires in March. The fiscal cliff is certainly not the last debate we'll have over spending, but it is the last time President Obama will be able to threaten massive tax increases to avoid addressing the real causes of our debt."
Rep. Lankford:
"Tonight, the House of Representatives passed the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, commonly known as the fiscal cliff bill. I could not support this bill. While the fiscal cliff was a real threat to our economy, the mushrooming debt is an even greater threat to our future. At the end of the day, our debt is not a Democrat or Republican problem, it is an American problem, and it will require significant spending restraint to resolve. Unfortunately, the bill that passed tonight does not move us forward toward solving the $16.4 trillion national debt that looms over every American. There were very strong and compelling reasons to vote either way on this bill, and I have great respect for my principled colleagues who voted for it. This bill made the tax rates permanent for the first time in over a decade, providing certainty for our economy. The Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) trap was fixed, the dairy subsidy was fixed, the irrational congressional pay increase was stopped, and many of the other tax issues were adjusted for those in poverty through the middle class. But the bill also further burdens Medicare providers, increases tax subsidies in a time when we are trying to simplify the tax code, and increases federal spending by several billion dollars. For years the President has consistently called for a balanced approach of spending cuts and tax increases, while House Republicans have rightly pointed out that Washington has a spending problem, not a revenue problem. Unfortunately, this bill lacks the "balance" required to address our long-term fiscal issues. No amount of taxation can pull our nation out of debt. Even with tonight's tax increase on "the wealthy," our deficit for 2013 will still be at or over one trillion dollars for the fifth year in a row. For our children's sake, I hope the President will actually follow through on his promise to work with Congress to restrain spending in the coming months. This means actual, immediate spending cuts, reforming unsustainable entitlement programs, and overhauling the cumbersome and complicated tax code. I have personally spoken to Speaker Boehner, who is committed this year to propose and pass meaningful solutions to get our fiscal house in order and put us on a path to solve our national debt. Tonight was only one step in a long journey. Please continue to email, call, and utilize Twitter and Facebook to voice your comments and concerns on this or any other legislative issues."

In which tradition? the ACROD/Carpatho-Russian version is absolutely stunning. Easy to sing as well, congregational singing, not choir singing. Let me see if I can find the resource.
I think the difference between the transliteration of the Slavonic and the chant (linked from the top of the page) is that the chant is actually in the Slovak language. While Slovak and Slavonic are indeed closely related, they're not the same. I believe Deacon Tony put the chant link there to showcase the melody.
Hello,Concrete things from the patronage church website:Instead of Razumejte it sounds like shu-day-something.At the end instead of Jako s' nami Boh, it sounds like lay-bo snami bo.I don't understand the Cyrillic alphabet, so I really don't know what the non-transliterated text is saying.
I know the Ukrainian text:"Z namy Boh, rozumijte, narody, rozumijte, narody,I poklonyajtesya, bo z namy Boh."The English translation:"God is with us, understand, peoples, understand, peoples,And worship, for God is with us."That's all... simple.
Here are the Slovak words you are hearing:S nami Boh, čujte, všetky národy a kajajte sa, lebo s nami Boh!
The sheet music and the transliteration is in Church Slavonic. The MP3 at the top of that page is in Slovak. So, same words but different language.
I believe this is actually a Compline prayer from the Prophecy of Isaiah that is used throughout all the year, not just during the seasons of Advent and the Nativity.
This translation of "S'nami Boh, Razumejte jazyci" is curious to me as the Greek has the word ethnoi and its translation as jazyci rather than narody seems different.
You forgot kneel for God is with us ....... poklonyajtesya = poklonajtese=kneel stashko
The Church Slavonic "языци" is completely equal to the modern "народы".
Stashku, brate, "poklonyatysya" in Ukrainian means "to worship" or "to bow." The verb for "kneel" in Ukrainian is "klyachyty." (In Russian, it's "preklonyat' koleni.")
huh? The patronage church link is Carpatho chant, prostopinije. It's fine. The ACROD has a booklet that is awesome for S'nami Boh.
How does someone learn Church Slavonic these days? The most I can find are grammars, but nothing like a course book. Even the grammars that I know of are more focused on historical linguistics rather than reading a church text for understanding.
I never learned it, but our liturgy and all other actions, and all the prayers are in Church Slavonic. So I can't speak it (except for prayers and phrases I know by heart) but in generall I understand it. I suppose many catholics have similar situation with Latin.
My daughter took Old Church Slavonic last year at Harvard, I'll forward your question to her.
What language is this hymn usually chanted in?
Hello,No one has answered my last question, yet - it was probably overlooked between all the more useful information provided - and thank you all for it.What language is this hymn usually chanted in?
Nektarios, here are the two links that my daughter sent me on my request about the Slavonic teaching aids they used:http://www.amazon.com/Church-Slavonic-Grammar-Horace-Lunt/dp/3110162849/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1196386334&sr=1-1http://www.utexas.edu/cola/centers/lrc/eieol/ocsol-0-X.htmlThe first one is a book they used as a principal textbook, and Maryana (my daughter) says it's pretty technical and difficult. The second is an online resource; she says it's good for people who just want to obtain some knowledge in Old Church Slavonic, without much technical-linguistic load.
Ahhhh, that Western accent... People who do not routinely speak Slavic languages just cannot pronounce this "sya" syllable properly! There is NO "i" sound in it, not even the shortest "i." The vowel conveyed by these two Latin letters, "y" and "a," in Slavic languages is ONE sound, neither the "y" ('i"), nor the "a," but "ya." (In the Cyrillic alphabeth, of course, there is an appropriate letter, which looks like the Latin R reflected in the mirror. )
If anyone is still interested, I found a mp3 of S'nami Boh in Slavonic. It's taken from a set of records made in the early 1970s to accompany the Papp Irmologion.
Thanks, Schultz! He chants "pokoryajtesya" (obey), while I believe Ukrainians sing "poklonyajtesya" (bow, or worship), but that's close, anyway.Ahhhh, that Western accent... People who do not routinely speak Slavic languages just cannot pronounce this "sya" syllable properly! There is NO "i" sound in it, not even the shortest "i." The vowel conveyed by these two Latin letters, "y" and "a," in Slavic languages is ONE sound, neither the "y" ('i"), nor the "a," but "ya." (In the Cyrillic alphabeth, of course, there is an appropriate letter, which looks like the Latin R reflected in the mirror. )
These were actually made in Czechoslovakia for the Greek Catholic Eparchy of Prešov, so you're hearing the Rusyn pronounciation (of probably a most decidedly Slovak dialect). I've heard it said before, though, that Rusyns pronounce that letter different than other Slavs.
You mean "Stara Slavans'koho" (Church Slavonic), right?Ung-Certez
Properly speaking, Church Slavonic is cerkovnoslavjanskyj jazyk, po cerkovnoslavjansky. But in everyday speech nobody really says that. In Carpatho-Rus' they say po slovjan'skŷ or staroslovjan'skŷj jazŷk -- "old Slavonic" -- even though technically "Old Church Slavonic" and "Church Slavonic" are not the same thing.

Sangamon County sheriff candidate Wes Barr said that if elected, he�ll increase the amount of training for new sergeants and lieutenants.
Barr, who retired from the sheriff�s office last year with the rank of lieutenant after 28 years in law enforcement, is running in the March 18 Republican primary against the current undersheriff, Jack Campbell. Barr, who spoke to The State Journal-Register�s editorial board Thursday, said the department needs to change the way it trains sergeants and lieutenants, who serve as supervisors for the patrol deputies.
�Right now, when somebody is promoted from deputy to sergeant, their training is that they have another sergeant ride with them for a week or so. Then they are out on their own,� Barr said. �I think we can do a better job.�
If elected, Barr said he would add to the current training and also have supervisors go through a formal, in-house training session that would cover the labor contract the deputies are operating under and other policies and procedures. The sessions also would cover the overall vision the sheriff and senior commanders have for the department.
Barr said any cost for the training would be minimal.
Campbell, interviewed later at another event, said the command staff has talked about expanded training for supervisors.
�As a sergeant, you are expanding your work as a deputy,� Campbell said. �That�s why we didn�t have an official training program in the past. But we certainly have talked about it. � It�s something we would like to look into.�
Barr also talked to the editorial board about his plan to allow military veterans without college credit eligibility to apply for sheriff�s office jobs.
Now, an applicant has to have a minimum of a bachelor�s degree or 60 semester hours of post-secondary education and at least two years in one of the branches of the military; or 60 semester hours of post-secondary education and have worked as a full-time sworn law enforcement officer for at least two continuous years.
Barr does not have a college degree, but did serve three years active duty in the Marine Corps.
�A lot of the skills they learn in the military are very applicable to law enforcement,� Barr said. �Life experiences can give you an education that doesn�t necessarily have to come out of a textbook.�
Campbell, who has been with the sheriff�s office since 1992, said he has no intention of changing the current standards of retiring Sheriff Neil Williamson.
Meanwhile Thursday, Campbell got the endorsement of the Sangamon County Farm Bureau, which said its political involvement committee made the decision after meeting with both candidates.
�Jack has been a longtime advocate of ensuring that our members in rural Sangamon County are given the protection and representation they deserve,� bureau president Larry Beaty said in a news release. �He has been an integral part of a team effort to utilize the resources of our organization to maximize the effectiveness of law enforcement at all corners of the county. We believe that his credentials, personality and commitment to the function of the sheriff�s office make him the best candidate for the job.�

Who do you support for Governor in Pennsylvania in 2010?
Posted in the East Bangor Forum
#1 Oct 11, 2010
We need a good governor that is not going to tax us to death
#2 Oct 11, 2010
We don't need a mini Rendell.
Tom Corbett gets my vote.
#3 Oct 11, 2010
Loose stool gets mine!!!!!
#4 Oct 11, 2010
Tired of big spending dems.
#5 Oct 11, 2010
Stool doesnt charge that much
#6 Oct 11, 2010
Tom Corbett is the only candidate whom is actually qualified to lead the State of Pennsylvania. We don't need any more budget showdowns or closing of State services due to childish games at the Governors mansion like we have had under Ed Rendell.
Tom Corbett has an A+ rating from the NRA, where his opponent has a B+ rating from the anti-gun group CeaseFirePA.
#7 Oct 11, 2010
An A+ rating from the NRA qualifies you to be governor? I can see it as a qualification for Attorney General, I guess, but I thought it took more than an NRA endorsement to make a good governor.
I guess it all depends on what you think is important. I like that Onorato held the line on taxes in Allegheny County. The Corrections and Public Safety Budget, home of Attorney General Tom Corbett, increased 3.4% 2010-11 over 2009-10.
#8 Oct 11, 2010
Dan Onorato has claimed he would use the Governors mansion to ram through sweeping gun rights restrictions in PA. So it's not so much about Tom's awesome rating and record, but more Onorato's plans to strip you of your 2A rights if he gets elected.
#9 Oct 11, 2010
Check out this easy to follow chart:
Since: Mar 10
Location hidden
#10 Oct 11, 2010
I have some questions about the chart Ron. First, who put this out? Second, I love the use of citations for Oronoto's answers, but where are they for Corbett? Third, the section on reporting lost or stolen guns, etc... If your gun was stolen, and you didn't report it...and it was used in the commission of a crime locally...and there's no prints...and they run the serial number...guess who's door the police are coming to...yours. I agree with the reporting of lost or stolen guns, that way if it used in a crime and you had a report filed, you're in the clear (of course if the cops wanted to be a pain they'd still visit).
#11 Oct 11, 2010
It was put out by Tom Corbett for Governor. TC's references are public record.
I don't believe lost-and-stolen is a bad idea, but I do think local restrictions are a terrible idea. It would create an impossible to manage patchwork of laws across the commonwealth which would be a burden to comply with. There are 53 counties, imagine if some didn't allow semi-automatic guns, others didn't allow concealed carry. It needs to be uniform as it has been for many decades.
These are just some reasons I am against Onorato and will be supporting Tom Corbett for Governor.
#12 Oct 11, 2010
It's funny how everyone wants everything.....but nobody wants to pay for it! Tax us to death indeed! Dan gets my vote!
#13 Oct 11, 2010
My God.......all you care about is guns??? No wonder this country is going to Hell fast!!! Never knew God or Jesus was into guns! Glad to see everyone has their priorities straight! You do know that you have a much better chance of being killed by or killing a loved one when there is a gun in the house, than you do in stopping the boogieman don't you? I'm sure that most of you would soil yourselves right before you were killed (while failing to ever actually get your gun) if you ever had to exercise your so-called second amendment rights to protect yourselves. Remember, Freud (and others) would say that men try to compensate for short comings in other areas (you know what I mean) with guns! Oh, and yes, by all means shooting defenseless animals makes you a man too!
Guns???? That's what you care about???? God help you & God help the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania!
#14 Oct 11, 2010
I don't want everything. I work for a living and don't need a handout from the Government. Figures someone on AOL in 2010 would be voting for Dan.
#15 Oct 11, 2010
Guns do feed families. It's called hunting. Not everybody can afford to eat at McDonalds everyday like you do. Those defenseless animals are called food.
You preachy know-it-all types are extremely annoying. Way to go.
#16 Oct 12, 2010
It doesnt matter who you want in any office, The upper class politicians "put" who they want, where they want, when they want. It has been that way for over 100 years!
the other fact, is whoever runs in any party, says one thing while running, and every one of them when elected goes right against what they said and does the opposite.
they are ALL lying, cheating, backstabbing politicians, its a pick your best poison at election time.
#17 Oct 12, 2010
Be careful not to say anything negative about Corbett are you will have no-neck Tony knocking at your door!
#18 Oct 12, 2010
Unlike you, I don't want everything given to me or others at tax payers expense so I'll cast my vote for Corbett.
#19 Oct 12, 2010

Casual comfort
Houses continue to be more luxury filled yet the formal dining room comes and goes in popularity, and the same is true with the eat-in kitchen. It's come and gone, but mostly it's been gone – for a long time. But now, homeowners are looking for that cozy convenience again. Having an eat-in kitchen just makes sense.
Eat-in kitchens make dining easier with fewer trips to and from the kitchen to the table and isolates preparing and eating food to a single room. Besides saving space, it's more convenient to move plates directly from stove to table. And since everyone gathers in the kitchen anyway, it just seems more practical to stay and eat there, too.
Eat-In Styles
There's more than just one style of eat-in kitchen. The standard is a table in the center, but there are other styles, too. Booths have become trendy and offer the option of keeping everyone together in the kind of seating everyone goes for first at a restaurant. Kids and adults alike love booths for their intimacy and cushy comfort. Perhaps their best quality after their cozy appeal is that booths can be a real space saver in the kitchen. Because booths are typically anchored on one side to a wall, that leaves more precious floor space available.
A table attached to one end of the island is another option for eating in the kitchen. This kind of dining arrangement keeps the dining in the kitchen but out of the way of busy cooks. Often a piece of stone can be attached to the end of an island at table height for dining. An eat-in kitchen can also be situated on an island or the ledge surrounding the cooktop or sink. If meals are fast and your family has to eat on the run, bar style dining offers the best arrangement for fast serving and clean up, especially if the counter is set against the kitchen sink.
If there's room for a full size table in the center of the kitchen, it's critical that the cook has ample room to get to the stove, sink, refrigerator and preparation areas without having to walk around the table. Another consideration is foot traffic. For safety, eat-in kitchens need enough room to accommodate a cook and someone passing behind as well unobstructed pass-through space around the table.
Social dining
An eat-in kitchen offers a charming, old fashioned way to reconnect during mealtime. It's also a way for the cook to stay involved with guests and family members as the meal is prepared. So more than just practicality, the eat-in kitchen offers homeowners a way to socialize together, and there's nothing wrong with a little more togetherness.

I am grateful for the fact that my mother-in-law is indeed coming up to visit and I'm free to lose my mind.
There is something quite liberating about the holidays; despite deadlines looming on a work load of projects that needed to be completed as of yesterday piling up high enough to require oxygen assistance to reach the peak, I am grateful for the fact that my mother-in-law is indeed coming up to visit and I'm free to lose my mind.
Way back in October the original plan was for her to come up and spend somewhere around a month with us. Now, I'm not sure what dunderheaded buffoon (me) suggested that idea (me) but eventually my mother-in-law realized that spending a month at my house would actually mean she'd have to put up with me for that entire month, and graciously (frantically) suggested a much shorter period of time.
Her suggestion? Two days.
We countered her suggestion in our own gracious manner — by calling her crazy, of course — and eventually we all came to a consensus that she would come up to visit for one week. That broke down to four days of travel — driving down to pick her up and then back down to drop her off —and four days and five nights of actually holiday visitation.
Wonderful, right?
We thought so too until my mother-in-law realized that she had accidentally agreed with something that made sense and immediately set about to rectify that situation
My MIL: Are you sure you don't just want me to come up for two days?
Us: No, mom. We do not want to drive four days just to have you come up for two days. We miss you and we want you to visit for longer than that.
My MIL: What about my dogs?
Us: Well, you can either bring them or board them.
My MIL: I can't board them!
Us: Then, we'll bring them.
My MIL: Well, that's too much trouble.
Us: Then, we'll board them.
My MIL: I can't board them.
Us: Then they're coming.
My MIL: Where will they stay?
Us: The carport at night and in the back yard during the day.
My MIL: What if they need to get out during the night?
Us: Someone will have to go let them out into the backyard for a bit and then put them back in the carport.
My MIL: There's no door for them to open?
Me: You didn't give me enough notice to tear down a wall and build a doggie door, mom. Sorry.
My Wife: (Punching me) MICHAEL! Mom.. they'll be fine. Someone can go let them in and out.
My MIL: You built them a door? How nice!
Me: No, I didn't build them a door.
My MIL: (Sounding disappointed) Then I guess I'll board them.
Us: Are you sure?
My MIL: It's the sensible thing to do and it won't stress out my poor pups.
Us: Okay. Let us know the estimate because we're paying for it. It's our present to the dogs.
My MIL: Okay.
And that's where we hung up with all our problems solved. Everywhere we looked there were bluebirds singing and rabbits dancing with joy at the love that we all shared as she came to a…
Wait. Is that the phone? It's 11 at night!
My MIL: I've thought about it and I want the dogs to come…
Me: Can I stay at the kennel instead?
And that's where all of this is at the moment; nowhere. I think my mother-in-law is coming up for a week. I'm not sure whether or not her dogs are coming with her. I'm not sure if that's going to cost me a small fortune or not, either way. I'm not sure of this. I'm not sure of that.
I'm not sure of anything other than the fact that I have lost my mind. If anyone reading this sees my mind — it's a small, grey frightened thing that likes comic books and jazz — please tell it I miss it and that it's welcome to come back after the holidays.
I won't need it until then.

Wrought iron railings and a matched pair of formal, stone columns are framed with brightly colored blossoms in precisely laid out flowerbeds. Slate stepping stones add a touch of whimsy with their staggered placement – go ahead, no one will object if you give in to treasured memories of hopscotch.
Unabashedly rustic and with roots planted deep in the traditions of hospitality found throughout the Great Southwest, there's an easy-going sense of welcome to this wooden entryway. Matched hurricane lamps suspended on either side light the way at night and cast a glow on the desert plants that grow with apparent spontaneity on either side. Brick pavers extend toward the inner courtyard, inviting all to enter here in friendship.
Tranquil and elegantly simplistic, there's a Zen-like sense of mystic to these gates. What secrets lie beyond the wooden slats? Absent are handles, pulls, or other apparent opening devices. Perhaps one need only present a pure heart to discover where these gates may lead.

Most religious, fearing interference with the natively developed liturgy and customs, did not want union with Rome.
Never completely suitable to either side, Roman authorities sometimes raised objection to Josaphat's Orthodox actions.
... a dissident group, supported by Cossacks, set up an anti-Uniat bishops for each Uniat one, spread the accusation that Josaphat had "gone Latin," and that his followers would be forced to do the same
I think you can say ~ In the Name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit and post with charitable and prayerful intentions.
Thank for the 2 versions - most interesting to hear both sides.Like Mor, I too have been banned, so when I saw Serge's original post this morning I was grateful for the elightenmentLet the education continue
You're welcome.<<I was banned from yourcatholic.com too with no explanation.>>Are they afraid of someone speaking the truth?<<It's ironic that the Poles would claim (St) Josaphat>>
Before WWII, L'viv was in fact Lw+¦w, a Polish-majority city, which may partly explain why it is a (the?) center of Ukrainian nationalism/separatism today - it is not Russian historically except perhaps in the Middle Ages. Before WWI it was in the part of Poland ruled by Austria and sometimes was called the German name Lemberg. Metropolitan Andrew (Sheptytsky), head of the Ukrainian Catholic Church and living in that city, was a Polish count (German Graf) in the old Austrian nobility. Which is perhaps why he was able to get away with being as Eastern-oriented (and friendly to the Orthodox) in the Catholic Church as he was for his time.
Metropolitan Andziej Szeptycki (Polish spelling)!
QuoteMetropolitan Andziej Szeptycki (Polish spelling)! I think you missed an r: Andrziej Szeptycki. It's still a zh sound in the middle of the word. (Probably really the same as the Czech letter r with a caron mark over it - rzh, like in Dvor+ÃÂÂk, a sound so hard even a lot of Czech kids can't say it right.)
Dziekuje barzdo.
and his body was supposedly found to be incorrupt;
Orthodoc,Thank you for your reply! Yes, I am well aware of the discrepancy, it is not the first time that I have seen it. Which is precisely why you should read the book on Saint Josaphat's life by Fr. Demetrius! It is well researched. Saint Josaphat was a convert to Catholicism.Yet, that does not invalidate that Saint Josaphat was a holy man. I am more than willing to read any biographies that the Orthodox Church has printed on Saint Josaphat's life. (*) Would you be able to provide me with some sources?Remember, Orthodoc, that discrepancies exist regarding the reason for the Theotokos' apparition to protect the city of Constantinople. Was it to protect the city from a disease or from invaders? Which one is true? Does that mean that the Theotokos never appeared in the first place? Of course not.You owe to yourself to read the book. If you still disagree, that is your choice, but at least you will be better informed.God bless you, griego catolico
Reply:Saints or Holy men do not plunder churches or murder their inhabitants.As far as history, I prefer to read what was wtitten by the Roman Catholic Chancellor of Lithuania of behalf of the Roman Catholic Polish King AT THE TIME IN QUESTION -Even Catholics urged this fanatic, nicknamed "soul-snatcher" by the people, to come to his senses. The famous letter of Chancellor Lev Sapega, the head of Great Principality of Lithuania, written on behalf of the Polish King, better than anything else characterizes the fierce Uniat Kuntsevich and the unfortunate state of Orthodox victims of the Brest Union. Lev Sapega wrote: (*) [Here's a source I have already given you. It is the letter written by the Roman Catholic Chancellor of Lithuania at that time}«I admit, that I too was concerned about the cause of Union and that it would be imprudent to abandon it; but it had never occurred to me that your Eminence would implement it using such violent measures... You say that you are "free to drown the infidels (i.e. those who have not accepted the Unia - L.P.), to chop their heads off"; etc. Not so! The Lord's commandment expresses a strict prohibition to all, which concerns you also. When you violated human conscience, closed churches so that people would perish like infidels without divine service, without Christian rites and sacraments; when you abused King's favors and privileges -- you managed without us; but when there is a need to suppress seditions caused by your excesses you want us to cover up for you... As to the dangers that threaten your life, one may say that everyone is the cause of one's own misfortune. Stop making trouble, do not subject us to the general hatred of the people and yourself to obvious danger and general criticism... Everywhere one hears people grumbling that you do not have any worthy priests, but only blind ones... Your ignorant priests are the bane of the people... But tell me, your Eminence, whom did you win over, whom did you attract with your severity... It will turn out that in Polotsk itself you have lost even those who until now were obedient to you. You have turned sheep into goats, you plunged the state into danger, and maybe all of us Catholics -- into ruin... It has been rumored that they (the Orthodox) would rather be under the infidel Turks than endure such violence... you yourself are the cause of their rebellion. Instead of joy, your notorious Union brought us only troubles and discords and has become so loathsome that we would rather be without it!» [391]. "Persecution of the Orthodox (raised by Kuntsevich) repeated the horrors of the first centuries of Christianity" [391]. One of them took place on May 22 of 1620 in the Trinity Monastery near Polotsk where local inhabitants gathered to express their indignation at the ferocious persecution of the Orthodox which was instigated by Bishop Kuntsevich of Polotsk. These people suffered a terrible fate: an armed crowd of Uniats surrounded the monastery and set it on fire. As the fire was raging and destroying the monastery and burning alive everyone within its walls, Iosafat Kuntsevich was performing on a nearby hill a thanksgiving service accompanied by the cries of the victims of fire ... [393] At last people's patience gave way, and in 1623 this "Papist and soul-snatcher", as he was called, was killed by the people of Vitebsk who suffered greatly from this fierce Uniat. King Sigizmund III severely punished the people of Vitebsk for the murder of Kuntsevich thereby earning the praise of Pope Urban VIII. Following the petition of the King and Jesuit court-preachers along with the Uniat-Jesuit party, the Pope acknowledged Kuntsevich as "blessed". At that time the Vatican could not call him a "saint" because everybody knew of his brutality, his scandalous disposition and his self-interest. To this testifies the above-cited letter of Chancellor Lev Sapega, a Latin who considered that he disgraced himself even by just corresponding with Kuntsevich. However, in spite of everything the Roman Pontiff decided to glorify Kuntsevich: "Only the Pope desirous of insulting and humiliating Orthodoxy could agree to acknowledge Iosafat as a martyr and thus delude and deceive gullible people. Jesuits-Uniats have even invented various miracles, which allegedly occurred at Iosafat's grave. The clumsiness of some of them may testify to their falsity..." [394] ========Rather than a rewrite of history written centuries later.Orthodoc
I am not yearning to relive something that happened 400 years ago; neither am I the object of your fascination who has been Orthodox for five years, transforming into a rabid zealot.
I have absolutely no idea who Maria Monk is, nor, I think, would I be interested.
And you know, some of the stories concerning the various genocides of the 2)th century were pretty lurid-yet, I would not advise confronting victims of the Turks, Kurds, Nazis, Communists, or Ustashi as "not historically accurate."
However, if you enjoy assuming a very lot without knowing very much, be my guest! You are obvioulsy easily amused.
Quote from: the slave on November 07, 2002, 04:57:37 AMThank for the 2 versions - most interesting to hear both sides.Like Mor, I too have been banned, so when I saw Serge's original post this morning I was grateful for the elightenmentLet the education continue What's with this banning? By whom were you and Mor banned and for what reason? Just a footnote: Polish Roman Catholics claim Josaphat Kuncewicz (note the Polish spelling they use in his surname) as one of *their* own, i.e., POLISH. The largest (Polish) Roman Catholic church in Milwaukee is St. Josaphat's Basilica.For some years I attended a Polish-American Roman Catholic parochial school, where, in Church History, I learned about the "real" St. Josaphat Kuncewicz, i.e., that he was Polish, not Ukrainian, Belorussian, Lithuanian, etc.! Hypo-Ortho
Are there in English any biographies of St. Josaphat Kuntsevich written along the traditional Orthodox anti-Josaphat line which are equivalent to that of Fr. Demetrios in terms of their depth of detail and historiographical integrity?Even a less lengthy support of the claims, one which provides more documentation than Chancellor Sapika's letter, for instance, is something I'd find worth reading. I really want to take seriously the Orthodox claims, but so far I've seen nothing historiographically impressive issuing from those quarters.
Quote from: Bl.

Yes, I too am interested to see if there has been any serious research on the part of the Orthodox Church regarding the claims against Saint Josaphat. So far, I have not seen any.It should be noted that in Fr. Demetrius' book on Saint Josaphat, Chancellor Leo Sapiah severely punished those who murdered Saint Josaphat. That would imply that he eventually believed in Saint Josaphat's innocence against claims of doing violence against Orthodox Christians.
Reply:Though I realize that you and others who accept the supreme authority of the Pope over all Christians will probably at this point not accept anything written by an Orthdox Catholic. However, you might want to acquire the following book by a widely respected Professor of Slavic history -(*) Dimitry Pospielovsky is Professor Emeritus of History at the University of Western Ontario. He is the author of The Russian Church Under The Soviet Regime, 1917-1982v (SVS Press, 1984) and is one of the foremost authorities on Russian Church History.----------The Orthodox Church And The History Of Russia...Professor Dimitry PospielovskyPage 96-97The Polish government could ill afford continuous persecutions of the Orthodox. A war with Turkey loomed on the horizon, and in 1621 the Cossacks presented an ultimatum to the Polish Crown, stating that unless all persecution of the Orthodox Church ceased, they would refuse to fight the Turks. In response, the 1623 Sejm declared toleration of the Orthodox Church and permitted the legimitization of Orthodox bishops and the restoration of their dioceses.But the joy of the Orthodox was short lived. The legalization of the Orthodox Church resulted in a mass return to Orthodoxy of the uniates, particularly in Eastern Belorussia, where the unia had been imposed only recently, and where the fanatical Uniate bishop Josaphat Kuntsevich of Polotsk and Vitebsk responded with bloody attacks on Orthodox households and churches with the help of locally stationed regular troops at his disposal. Even uniate bishop Metropolitan Rutskii in vain called on Josephat to exercise moderation. Then the citizens of Vitebsk rose in revolt, lynched the bishop, and threw his body in the Dvina. A few days later the body was recovered from the water by the Uniates, and Kuntsevitch was proclaimed a martyr-saint, highly revered by the UGCC to this day.Roman Catholic revenge was immediate and brutal. Ten citizens of Vitebsk were executed, the city lost its immunities granted under the Magdeburg Law, and all Orthodox churches, including those situated on the brotherhood lands, were closed and confiscated. Everywhere in the commonwealth, the Orthodox lost the right not only to build but even to repair churches; and Pope Urban VII proclaimed that any Roman Catholic who dared to oppose the use of the sword against the Orthodox would be excommunicated.<snipe>The status of the Orthodox Church after Kuntsevich episode remained so tragic, that Job, the Orthodox Metropolitan of Kiev, secretly appealed to the Tsar micheal of Russia in 1625 to annex Rus' parts of the Commonwealth to Muscovy.----------Orthodoc

On April 2, 2103, Richard Martin leveled some serious charges at Democrats.
To the Editor:
On April 2, 2103, Richard Martin leveled some serious charges at Democrats. It would be useful for Mr. Martin to supply additional detail so that disinterested parties can weigh the merits of his charges. It would be useful if he would supply his sources (radio, TV, internet, newspaper, etc.) and connect them to his statements. "Look it up" is not sufficient to demonstrate the validity of his statements and charges.
Look at it this way. If someone says "the moon is made of green cheese," it is reasonable to expect them to provide verifiable evidence to support their contention.
Hate is like yellow mustard in that it is easy to spread, easy to consume, and leaves a stain.

Brochure | Map Only
This brochure is designed to provide the public with information and a summary of regulations pertaining to hunting and other recreational use on the Walk-in-the-Water Wildlife Management Area. Regulations that are new or differ substantially from last year are shown in bold print. Area users should familiarize themselves with all regulations. For exact wording of the wildlife laws and regulations, see the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission's wildlife code, on file with the Secretary of State and state libraries. This brochure, the Florida Hunting Regulations handbook, and quota permit worksheets should provide the information necessary for you to plan your hunting activities. These publications are available at MyFWC.com.
Persons using wildlife management areas are required to have appropriate licenses, permits and stamps. The following persons are exempt from all license and permit requirements (except for quota permits when listed as "no exemptions," recreational use permits, antlerless deer permits and the Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation Stamp [federal duck stamp]): Florida residents who are 65 years of age or older; residents who possess a Florida Resident Disabled Person Hunting and Fishing Certificate; residents in the U.S. Armed Forces, not stationed in Florida, while home on leave for 30 days or less, upon submission of orders; and children under 16 years of age. Children under 16 years of age are exempt from the federal duck stamp. Anyone born on or after June 1, 1975 and 16 years of age or older must have passed a Commission-approved hunter-safety course prior to being issued a hunting license, except the Hunter Safety Mentoring exemption allows anyone to purchase a hunting license and hunt under the supervision of a licensed hunter, 21 years of age or older.
Licenses and permits may be purchased from county tax collectors, license agents, by telephone at 888-486-8356. or through the Commission's Recreational License Issuance Services (RLIS). A no-cost Migratory Bird Permit is available when purchasing a hunting license. Any waterfowl hunter 16 years of age or older must possess a federal duck stamp.
Archery - 40, no-cost, quota permits (no exemptions) for each of 5 hunts. Muzzleloading Gun - 25, no-cost, quota permits (no exemptions) for each of 3 hunts. Spring Turkey - 5, no-cost, quota permits (no exemptions).
Permit applications: Hunters must submit electronic applications for quota and special-opportunity permits through RLIS. Worksheets listing hunts, application periods, deadlines and instructions are available at county tax collector's offices, FWC offices or MyFWC.com. Quota application periods occur throughout the year beginning April 1; please refer to the hunting handbook or MyFWC.com for specific dates. Worksheets will be available about 2 weeks prior to each application period.
Guest hunters: For each non-transferable archery, muzzleloading gun, general gun, wild hog, spring turkey and mobility-impaired quota permit issued through RLIS, a quota permit holder (host) may take a guest hunter by obtaining a guest permit. A guest hunter must possess a completed guest permit while hunting except the following persons may be a guest hunter without a guest permit: a youth under 16 years of age, a youth supervisor, a mentor license holder or a mentor license supervisor. A host may only bring 1 guest hunter at a time and may only use 1 guest permit per day. The following persons are not considered to be guest hunters: other quota permit holders, non-hunters and exempt hunters (on areas and during seasons that allow exemptions). The host must share the bag limit with the guest hunter and the host is responsible for violations that exceed the bag limit. The guest hunter and host must enter and exit the area together and must share a street-legal vehicle while hunting on the area. The guest hunter may hunt only while the host is on the area. Refer to the quota hunt worksheets for additional information.
Youth and mentor license holders: A supervisor is required to accompany a youth or mentor license holder during any hunt. A youth hunter (less than 16 years of age) must be supervised by a person at least 18 years of age. A mentor license holder must be supervised by a licensed hunter at least 21 years of age. Unless exempt, only those supervisors with proper licenses and permits may hunt.

The budget cuts on March 1 help the rich at the expense of the middle class and those in need of vital services in Kansas: That's most of us and our loved ones.
We all agree that the federal deficit needs to be cut.
• The question is how . . . and who will it hurt.
The Sequester -- the federal budget cuts that take effect March 1 absence action by Congress -- is an example of the super rich protecting their entitlements.
• At the expense of the middle class, children, seniors citizens, veterans, small businesses, the unemployed, and the poor.
Who will pay the price in Kansas?
• Not asking the super wealthy to pay a little bit more by closing loopholes (aka entitlements for the super rich), forces our children, seniors, troops, military families and the entire middle class to bear the burden.*
BUDGET CUT IMPACTS: KANSAS (in 2013 alone).
• Teachers and Schools. Kansas will lose about $5.5 million in funding for education including services for some 7000 fewer students.
• Education for Children with Disabilities
• Work-Study Jobs for College Students in Kansas.
• Head Start and Early Head Start services. Eliminated for approximately 500 children in Kansas.
• Protections for Clean Air and Clean Water. Kansas will lose about $1.8 million in funding to ensure clean water and air quality, as well as another $772,000 in grants for fish and wildlife protection.
• Military Readiness. Around 8000 civilian Dept. of Defense employees in Kansas would be furloughed, reducing gross pay by around $36.7 million in total.
• Army Base operation funding would be cut by about $78 million in Kansas.
• Air Force operations in Kansas would be cut by about $1 million.
• Law Enforcement and Public Safety Funds for Crime Prevention and Prosecution. Kansas will lose grants that support law enforcement, prosecution and courts, crime prevention and education, corrections and community corrections, drug treatment and enforcement, and crime victim and witness initiatives.
• Job search assistance to help those in Kansas find employment and training. In Kansas 11,130 fewer people will get the help and skills they need to find employment in Kansas.
• Child Care. Up to 400 disadvantaged and vulnerable children could lose access to child care -- not only essential for their healthy development but also for working parents to hold down a job.
• Vaccines for Children. Reduced funding means some 1240 fewer children in Kansas will receive vaccines to protect from childhood.
• Public Health. Kansas will lose funds to: upgrade responses to public health threats (including infectious diseases, natural disasters, and biological, chemical, nuclear, and radiological events; about 900 admissions to substance abuse programs, and some 1600 HIV tests.
• STOP Violence Against Women Program: Kansas could lose funds that provide services to victims of domestic violence, resulting in up to 200 fewer victims being served.
• Nutrition Assistance for Seniors. Kansas loses funds that provide meals for seniors.
An annual reduction of roughly 5 % for nondefense programs and roughly 8 % for defense programs.
During 2013, those cuts have to be achieved over only seven months instead of 12 -- which means effective reductions of about 9 % for nondefense programs and 13 % for defense programs.
Here's a sampling of what this means in terms of our safety and security here in Kansas.
• FBI & other law enforcement. A loss of more than 1000 Federal agents, significantly impacting the ability to combat violent crime, secure our borders, and protect national security.
• Customs and border patrol. Over 5000 border patrol agents and over 2750 CBP officers gone. Staffing reductions increase wait times at airports, weaken security between land ports of entry. Average wait times increase 30-50 % at major airports,
• Aviation safety & security. TSA hiring freeze for all transportation security officer positions in March, overtime eliminated, and 50,000 officers furloughed for up to seven days.
• Emergency responders. Reduced funding from FEMA for state and local firefighter positions and emergency management personnel, hindering responses to natural disasters and other emergencies.
• New drug approvals. Delays in new drug approvals.
• Small business assistance. SBA loan guarantees cut by up to $900 million, limiting financing that small businesses need to expand their operations and create jobs.
• Oil and gas permitting. Development of oil and gas on federal lands and waters delayed due to a greatly reduced federal workforce.
• Food safety. 2100 fewer inspections at domestic and foreign facilities that manufacture food products, increasing exposure to food poisoning, and costing the agriculture sector millions of dollars in lost production volume.
• Veterans services. Tens of thousands of veterans lose services that assist them move from active duty to civilian life, including services to help them find civilian employment.
• National parks. Partial or full closures at many of the 398 national parks across the country will hurt many small businesses and regional economies that depend on parks to attract visitors.
• Education. Title I funding cuts eliminated for more than 2700 schools, putting at risk about 10,000 jobs, and cutting support for nearly 1.2 million disadvantaged students.
• Special education (IDEA). Support eliminated for more than 7200 teachers, aides, and other staff who provide essential services to preschool and school-aged students with disabilities.
• Head Start services. Services eliminated for approximately 70,000 children; small businesses, local governments, and school systems have to lay off over 14,000 teachers and other staff.
• Social Security services. Reductions in oversight designed to ensure benefits are paid accurately and to the right people, and substantial delays in processing disability claims.
• Senior meals. 4 million fewer meals for seniors from Meals on Wheels and other programs that serve seniors with chronic illnesses affected by diet, and frail, homebound seniors.
• Nutrition assistance for women, infants and children. Approx. 600,000 women and children dropped from WIC (March through September, 2013); at least 1600 state and local jobs lost.
• Child care. 30,000 low-income children lose access to child development programs and many families those this crucial support in order to work.
• Rental assistance. Reductions in funding place about 125,000 families at immediate risk of losing their permanent housing.
• Emergency unemployment compensation. Benefits cut by nearly 11 %, affecting long-term unemployed individuals and their families while they search for another job. Note: Economists estimate that every dollar in unemployment benefits generates $2 in economic activity.
• Homelessness programs. Over 100,000 formerly homeless people, including veterans, lose their current housing and emergency shelter programs, putting them at risk of returning to the streets.
• Mental health and substance abuse services. Over 373,000 seriously mentally ill adults and seriously emotionally disturbed children won't receive needed services, leading to increased hospitalizations, involvement in the criminal justice system, and homelessness.
• AIDS and HIV treatment and prevention. 7400 fewer patients have access to life saving HIV medications; approx. 424,000 fewer HIV tests conducted - increasing future HIV transmissions, deaths from HIV, and costs in health care.
• Tribal services. 3000 fewer inpatient admissions and 804,000 fewer outpatient visits, undermining needed health care in Tribal communities.
Adapted from: Impact of March 1st Cuts on Middle Class Families, Jobs and Economic Security: Kansas
* There are various definitions of who is in the middle class, but generally are families earning an adjusted gross income under $200,000 and above $75,000. See, e.g., "Defining the Middle Class" (1-24-2008), FactCheck.org

http://www.audiodharma.org/series/16/talk/3019/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;When discussing the sources of conflict—inner and outer—the Buddha pointed to a type of thinking he called papañca. This term is often translated as "conceptual proliferation," but a survey of how it's discussed in the Pali Canon shows that it has less to do with the amount of thinking and more with the way thinking is framed. This daylong course will focus on understanding what papañca is, how it happens, when it has its uses, and how the need for it can eventually be overcome.
I have not listened to the whole series yet, but Ven Thanissaro explains why he does not use the PTS translation "diffuseness", or the Nananada translation "conceptual proliferation", but prefers to use "objectification".

Authorities: Missing U of New Hampshire student is dead; suspect charged, search ongoing
DOVER, N.H. (AP) — An actor and martial arts instructor is charged in the death of a 19-year-old University of New Hampshire student who disappeared last week. The girl's family is pleading for her to be brought home.
Law enforcement officials say they believe Elizabeth "Lizzi" Marriott is dead. Assistant Attorney General James Vara says the search for the body of the marine biology major who volunteered at the New England Aquarium, is continuing.
Twenty-nine-year-old Seth Mazzaglia, of Dover, was charged Saturday with second-degree murder.
He is scheduled to be arraigned Monday.

County Emergency Medical Service (EMS) staff have made progress in their plan to increase the number of emergency, life-saving defibrillators available across Kiowa County.
County Emergency Medical Service (EMS) staff have made progress in their plan to increase the number of emergency, life-saving defibrillators available across Kiowa County.
"We can show up with an ambulance full of paramedics, but the two things that can save lives are early cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and early access to defibrillation," said Kiowa County EMS Director Chad Pore. "It used to be that only trained professionals were able to deliver this type of quick response, but these machines put that ability into the hands of regular people."
Pore and his staff of first responders have been pushing for an increase in automated external defibrillators (AED) in public buildings.
AEDs are portable medical devices that attempt to detect and correct both cardiac dysrhythmia, a life-threatening irregular beating of the heart, and cardiac arrest.
They are smaller than the normal defibrillators and designed for use outside of traditional medical facilities by untrained, or under-trained people.
Like their larger equivalents, AEDs deliver either a single or a series of electronic shocks to the heart in an attempt to correct irregular heart patterns.
"If someone goes into cardiac arrest, any person can grab one, open it and follow the simple steps," said Pore. "And just as important, the device will analyze and determine if a shock is necessary."
All AEDs approved in the United States give audio cues, including where to place and how to place the electric pads. They also advise users of safety precautions and whether additional CPR is necessary.
At the conclusion of the International Guidelines Conference on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care (IGCCRECC) in 2000, members published an overwhelmingly positive consensus report on the use of AEDs.
"With reported survival rates of up to 49%, public access defibrillation has the potential to be the single greatest advance in the treatment of pre-hospital sudden cardiac death since the invention of CPR," wrote the report.
While there have been reports of dangerous flaws in AED systems, including manufacturing errors and recalls, most medical professionals agree that AEDs can and are saving lives.
The U.S. Department of Labor Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the government agency that oversees workplace conditions, lists AEDs as an "important lifesaving technology."
A 2004 study, published in the New England Journal of Medicine, found that survival rates were nearly double when early responders were trained to use AEDs.
The same study, following about 19,000 volunteer first responders, found that in nearly all cases, untrained responders were able to operate an AED correctly.
Pore said EMS manages and provides maintenance to most, if not all of the AEDs in the county, though they are not required to do so.
They can be privately owned, but require maintenance, battery replacement and upkeep.
"We decided we were going to monitor and maintain them to make sure they were up-to-date with batteries and patches," said Pore.
About 20 AEDs are now available in public buildings in Greensburg, Mullinville and Haviland.
There are AEDs in the Kiowa County High School, Kiowa County Senior Center, Kiowa County Courthouse, Kiowa County Commons and The Big Well.
The Kiowa County Sheriff's Dept. has two AEDs available in on-duty vehicles at all times. The Greensburg Police Dept. also has AED in its cruiser.
There is an AED at the Cenex station in Mullinville, The Haviland Clinic and The Haviland Grade School. Both the Haviland and Mullinville Fire Dept. have AEDs as well.
"It's good that we know they are there," said Pore. "We want to work with emergency dispatch in the future so if someone calls 911, they know where the nearest AED is. If someone goes into cardiac arrest, they will be able to direct them to the nearest AED."
Pore said they have recently replaced 17 AEDs at various locations in the county at a cost of about $1,422 each.
"We were able to get them at a discounted rate because we were buying so many of them and one of our part-time EMS guys, Dwayne Billinger is a salesman for the company," said Pore.
The Lions Club purchased an AED for the Kiowa County Senior Center. Billinger donated two AEDs, TransCanada donated $3,000 to the project and McCownGordon Architects, the Kansas City-based builder, donated an AED to Kiowa County High School.
The Kiowa County Health Department also donated two, one each for the Kiowa County Elementary School in Greensburg and the Haviland Elementary School.
EMS, the Sheriff's Department and the City of Greensburg also purchased AEDs for their personnel.
Pore also said the Greensburg Recreation Department and United Methodist Church bought AEDs for their buildings. "And we're working on more," he added.
County EMS will also have a table at the upcoming Kiowa County Health Fair.
"There have been some changes in CPR," said Pore. "The consensus now is compressions only, fast and hard. We'll have a booth. We'll do 2-minute CPR training and we'll give demonstrations on the AEDs."
Billinger met with school officials last week to give a demonstration to teachers and staff and a demonstration at the Kiowa County Senior Center is upcoming.

WASHINGTON — The company that handled a background check on National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden allegedly defrauded the government by submitting at least 665,000 investigations that had not been properly completed, and then tried to cover it up when the government suspected what was going on.
That company is U.S. Investigations Services (USIS), which has offices in Boyers, Butler County, and Grove City. It is based in Falls Church, Va.
The number of investigations, the Justice Department said today in a civil complaint, amounts to 40 percent of the cases that the company, USIS sent to the government over a four-year span, continuing through at least September 2012.
In response, the company said that integrity and excellence are core values at USIS, which has 6,000 employees.
USIS was involved in a background investigation of Snowden in 2011, but his particular job doesn't figure in the lawsuit.
The government said that USIS engaged in a practice known inside the company as "dumping" or "flushing." It involved releasing uncompleted background cases to the government and representing them as complete to increase revenue and profit.
The government paid the company $11.7 million in performance awards for the years 2008, 2009 and 2010, according to the Justice Department court filing.
USIS senior management "was fully aware of and, in fact, directed the dumping practices," the government complaint said.
Beginning in March 2008, USIS' president and CEO established revenue goals for the company. USIS's chief financial officer determined how many cases needed to be reviewed or dumped to meet those goals, the complaint added.

non-sport cards and card collecting.
(part 4)
Test Issue - a preliminary offering issued as a test to see if a product would be accepted by collectors.
Tobacco Card - typically from the early 1900s, these were cards issued with tobacco products. The most famous of which is the "T-206" Honus Wagner card.
Traded/Update Set - a set issued after the original issue primarily featuring rookies or players who were traded since the original issue came out.
Trimmed Card - a card reduced in size from when it was issued, usually to hide an imperfection such as damaged edges or corners. Trimmed cards usually have very little value but in some cases such as the 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle, even trimmed cards can go for thousands of dollars. The most famous 'trimmed' card to date is the T206 Honus Wagner purchased by Wayne Gretzky. The card was actually too large and was trimmed down to it's proper size.
Unauthorized Issue - a card release which is not licensed by a league, a player's association, or by a player.
Variation - a card that was printed by the manufacturer in two or more different ways.
Wax - a universal collecting term for factory-sealed packs or boxes. The term "wax" most often refers to sealed material that was originally released in the early 1990's or back -- a time when packs were wrapped and sealed in wax paper wrappers. It can casually reference modern era packs or boxes that no longer use actual wax paper.
HARTLAND STATUESHartland produced it's first baseball statues back in the early 60's. Sports Collectibles Digest stated that the 1960's Mickey Mantle Hartland is the single most popular plastic sports statue ever produced ! In 1988 Hartland created their 25th Anniversary Editions which, except for some very minor details, were identical to the original.
Hartland partnered with America's leading hobby-periodical publisher, Krause Publications, to create the SCD Authentic series offering the original 18 as you've never seen them with each statue dramatically different from prior releases. They are amazingly beautiful and exquisitely detailed in their road uniforms with painted pinstripes and wood grained bats making them a unique collectible opportunity for both veteran collectors and Hartland newcomers alike.
Limited to only 2,500 pieces each, these statues are BRAND NEW, MINT and in THEIR ORIGINAL BOXES !!!
