Mayor Marchione, members of the Redmond Rotary, City officials, and staff accepted an award from King County Executive Dow Constantine on May 24, 2012 for restoration of the Anderson Park picnic shelter. A grant from the Redmond Rotary and the City's Heritage Restoration and Preservation Grant program helped the restoration project take place.
Detailed efforts in accordance with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards and Guidelines for Preservation, Rehabilitation, Restoration and Reconstruction Projects restored this structure using techniques that represent those of the shelter's original construction. By matching wood type and ring-count and by using hand tools to work the wood, the contractor created an authentic representation of Redmond history while helping to support park visitors today and in the future.
Additional information:
Continuing the National Preservation Month celebration, regional experts in historic preservation, adaptive reuse, and sustainable architecture presented to property owners of historic properties on May 14, 2011.
The City of Redmond established a Historic Preservation program in 2000.
The program includes:
In 2006, the City was nationally recognized as a Preserve America Community by then-First Lady, Laura Bush. The "Preserve America" initiative was a White House and now a National Parks Service program to encourage and support community efforts to preserve America's cultural and natural heritage. Preserve America initiatives include: a greater shared knowledge about the nation's past; strengthened regional identities and local pride; increased local participation for preservation of the country's cultural and natural heritage; and support for economic vitality of American communities.

Home-Prepared Dog Food – How to Make a Balanced Diet
Home-prepared diet guidelines: You don't need a spreadsheet or a degree in nutrition to feed your dog a complete and balanced diet.
Over the past few months, I have offered diet critiques that tweaked good home-prepared diets in order to address health concerns – or simply to optimize the diet. To do this, I analyzed the diets and compared them to the National Research Council's guidelines for canine nutrition. I want to be clear, though: I don't believe this is a requirement for feeding a homemade diet. Just as with the diet you feed yourself and your family, feeding a wide variety of healthy foods in appropriate proportions should meet the needs of most healthy dogs.
Problems arise with how this description is interpreted. Too often, people think that they're feeding a healthy diet when key ingredients may be missing or are fed in excess. Here are specific guidelines to help ensure that the diet you feed meets your dog's requirements.
Complete and Balanced
It's important that the diet you feed your dog is "complete and balanced," meaning it meets all of your dog's nutritional needs. It is not important, however, that every meal be complete and balanced, unless you feed the same meal every day with little or no variation.
Home-prepared diets that include a wide variety of foods fed at different meals rely on balance over time, not at every meal. Similar to the way humans eat, as long as your dog gets everything he needs spread out over each week or two, his diet will be complete and balanced.
A human nutritionist would never expect someone to follow a single recipe with no variation, as veterinary nutritionists routinely do. Instead, a human would be given guidelines in terms of food groups and portion sizes. As long as your dog doesn't have a health problem that requires a very specific diet, there's no reason you can't do the same for your dog.
Keep in mind that puppies are more susceptible to problems caused by nutritional deficiencies or excesses than adult dogs are. Large-breed puppies are particularly at risk from too much calcium prior to puberty.
Following are guidelines for feeding a raw or cooked homemade diet to healthy dogs. No single type of food, such as chicken, should ever make up more than half the diet.
Except where specified, foods can be fed either raw or cooked. Leftovers from your table can be included as long as they're foods you would eat yourself, not fatty scraps.
Meat and Other Animal Products: Should always make up at least half of the diet. Many raw diets are excessively high in fat, which can lead to obesity. Another potential hazard of diets containing too much fat: If an owner restricts the amount fed (in order to control the dog's weight) too much, the dog may suffer deficiencies of other required nutrients.
Unless your dog gets regular, intense exercise, use lean meats (no more than 10 percent fat), remove skin from poultry, and cut off separable fat. It's better to feed dark meat poultry than breast, however, unless your dog requires a very low-fat diet.
Raw Meaty Bones (optional): If you choose to feed them, RMBs should make up one third to one half of the total diet. Use the lower end of the range if you feed bony parts such as chicken necks and backs, but you can feed more if you're using primarily meatier parts such as chicken thighs. Never feed cooked bones.
Boneless Meat: Include both poultry and red meat. Heart is a good choice, as it is lean and often less expensive than other muscle meats.
Fish: Provides vitamin D, which otherwise should be supplemented. Canned fish with bones, such as sardines (packed in water, not oil), jack mackerel, and pink salmon, are good choices. Remove bones from fish you cook yourself, and never feed raw Pacific salmon, trout, or related species. You can feed small amounts of fish daily, or larger amounts once or twice a week. The total amount should be about one ounce of fish per pound of other meats (including RMBs).
Organs: Liver should make up roughly 5 percent of this category, or about one ounce of liver per pound of other animal products. Beef liver is especially nutritious, but include chicken or other types of liver at least occasionally as well. Feeding small amounts of liver daily or every other day is preferable to feeding larger amounts less often.
Eggs: Highly nutritious addition to any diet. Dogs weighing about 20 pounds can have a whole egg every day, but give less to smaller dogs.
Dairy: Plain yogurt and kefir are well tolerated by most dogs (try goat's milk products if you see problems). Cottage and ricotta cheese are also good options. Limit other forms of cheese, as most are high in fat.
Fruits and Vegetables: While not a significant part of the evolutionary diet of the dog and wolf, fruits and vegetables provide fiber that supports digestive health, as well as antioxidants and other beneficial nutrients that contribute to health and longevity. Deeply colored vegetables and fruits are the most nutritious.
Starchy Vegetables: Veggies such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, and winter squashes (including pumpkin), as well as legumes (beans), provide carbohydrate calories that can be helpful in reducing food costs and keeping weight on skinny and very active dogs. Quantities should be limited for overweight dogs. Starchy foods must be cooked in order to be digestible by dogs.
Leafy Green and Other Non-Starchy Vegetables: These are low in calories and can be fed in any quantity desired. Too much can cause gas, and raw, cruciferous veggies such as broccoli and cauliflower can suppress thyroid function (cook them if you feed large amounts). Raw vegetables must be pureed in a food processor, blender, or juicer in order to be digested properly by dogs, though whole raw veggies are not harmful and can be used as treats.
Fruits: Bananas, apples, berries, melon, and papaya are good choices. Avoid grapes and raisins, which can cause kidney failure in dogs.
Grains: Controversial, as they may contribute to inflammation caused by allergies, arthritis, or inflammatory bowel disease (IBD); as well as seizures and other problems (it's not clear whether starchy vegetables do the same). Some grains contain gluten that may cause digestive problems for certain dogs. Many dogs do fine with grains, however, and they can be used to reduce the overall cost of feeding a homemade diet.
Grains and starchy veggies should make up no more than half the diet. Good choices include oatmeal, brown rice, quinoa, barley, and pasta. White rice can be used to settle an upset stomach, particularly if overcooked with extra water, but it's low in nutrition and should not make up a large part of the diet. All grains must be well cooked.
Some supplements are required. Others may be needed if you are not able to feed a variety of foods, or if you leave out one or more of the food groups above. In addition, the longer food is cooked or frozen, the more nutrients are lost. Here are some supplements to consider:
Calcium: Unless you feed RMBs, all homemade diets must be supplemented with calcium. The amount found in multivitamin and mineral supplements is not enough. Give 800 to 1,000 mg calcium per pound of food (excluding non-starchy vegetables). You can use any form of plain calcium, including eggshells ground to powder in a clean coffee grinder (1/2 teaspoon eggshell powder provides about 1,000 mg calcium). Animal Essentials' Seaweed Calcium provides additional minerals, as well.
Oils: Most homemade diets require added oils for fat, calories, and to supply particular nutrients. It's important to use the right types of oils, as each supplies different nutrients.
Fish Oil: Provides EPA and DHA, omega-3 fatty acids that help to regulate the immune system and reduce inflammation. Give an amount that provides about 300 mg EPA and DHA combined per 20 to 30 pounds of body weight on days you don't feed fish. Note that liquid fish oil supplements often tell you to give much more than this, which can result in too many calories from fat.
Cod Liver Oil: Provides vitamins A and D as well as EPA and DHA. If you don't feed much fish, give cod liver oil in an amount that provides about 400 IUs vitamin D daily for a 100-pound dog (proportionately less for smaller dogs). Can be combined with other fish oil to increase the amount of EPA and DHA if desired.
Plant Oils: If you don't feed much poultry fat, found in dark meat and skin, linoleic acid, an essential omega-6 fatty acid, may be insufficient. You can use walnut, hempseed, corn, vegetable (soybean), or high-linoleic safflower oil to supply linoleic acid if needed. Add about one teaspoon of oil per pound of meat and other animal products, or twice that amount if using canola or sunflower oil. Olive oil and high-oleic safflower oil are low in omega-6 and cannot be used as a substitute, although small amounts can be added to supply fat if needed. Coconut oil provides mostly saturated fats, and can be used in addition to but not as a replacement for other oils.
Other Vitamins and Minerals: In addition to vitamin D discussed above, certain vitamins and minerals may be short in some homemade diets, particularly those that don't include organ meats or vegetables. The more limited the diet that you feed, the more important supplements become, but even highly varied diets are likely to be light in a few areas.
Vitamin E: All homemade diets I've analyzed have been short on vitamin E, and the need for vitamin E increases when you supplement with oils. Too much vitamin E, however, may be counterproductive. Give 1 to 2 IUs per pound of body weight daily.
Iodine: Too much or too little iodine can suppress thyroid function, and it's hard to know how much is in the diet. A 50-pound dog needs about 300 mcg (micrograms) of iodine daily. Kelp is high in iodine, though the amount varies considerably among supplements.
Multivitamin and mineral supplements: A multivitamin and mineral supplement will help to meet most requirements, including iodine and vitamins D and E, but it's important not to oversupplement minerals. If using the one-a-day type of human supplements, such as Centrum for Adults under 50, give one per 40 to 50 pounds of body weight daily. Note that most supplements made for dogs provide a reasonable amount of vitamins but are low in minerals, and so won't make up for deficiencies in the diet. Be cautious with small dogs; I've seen some supplements that recommend the same dosage for 10-pound dogs as for those weighing 50 or even 100 pounds. In those cases, the dosage is usually too high for the small dogs and should be reduced. Products made for humans are also inappropriate for small dogs.
Green Blends: Often containing alfalfa and various herbs, green blends may be especially helpful if you don't include many green vegetables in your dog's diet. You can also use a pre-mix that includes alfalfa and vegetables, such as The Honest Kitchen's Preference. Note most pre-mixes also supply calcium, so you should reduce or eliminate calcium supplements, depending on how much of the pre-mix you use.

Hi Mary, is it too much to ask you to send me a recipe for a balanced diet. I will cook it. I find so many of them confusing, I need it written out in so many ounces of this, or a pound of that.
I understand if you can't.
My girl is 13 pounds, not very active. She just turned 11 years old end of February.
If you can I thank you very much if not I understand.
Thank you

Hi would it be possible to get a recipe from you? I have a 10 month old golden. We are trying to switch to grain free for him because of stomach issues.
- 3 Christine Potter { 01.14.19 at 9:22 am }
Hi! I have a beautiful golden girl. She is 4, weighs about 75lbs. I have been feeding her Royal Canine. I believed this was great dog food. I am so upset with ingredients list. May I have a recipe. I understand for lean meats and such. She gets a very dry coat in winter. Vets in my including mine. Have no recommendations for nutrition. Even human drs do not agree. Thanks Chris and Molly.
- 4 Linda Seekins { 03.20.19 at 1:45 pm }
We have a lovely 10 month old male Golden Retriever. he currently weighs 80# but is not overweight just a big dog. I would like to feed him homemade dog food. Can you send me a recipe that will supply him with the necessary nutrition?
- 5 pat { 03.20.19 at 7:08 pm }
I am no longer feeding home prepared since Taurine Deficient Dilated Cardiomyopathy is becoming more prevalent. Join the Facebook group by that name to learn more about feeding your golden.

Donald Trump's Ugly Attack On Arianna Huffington
Blog ››› ››› MATT GERTZ
This morning, regular Fox News and CNBC guest and Mitt Romney surrogate Donald Trump tweeted that Huffington Post founder Arianna Huffington "is unattractive both inside and out. I fully understand why her former husband left her for a man- he made a good decision."
Trump makes weekly guest appearances on Fox News' Fox & Friends and on CNBC's Squawk Box. He often uses those appearances to offer baseless conspiracy theories about President Obama. Indeed, CNBC.com has noted that Trump "has been at the forefront of the 'birther' movement -- those who question whether Obama was born in the U.S."
Shortly after Trump's appearance on CNBC this morning, the program hosted Huffington, who criticized the Republican National Convention for devoting insufficient attention to job creation.
Last year Fox News relentlessly promoted his claims that President Obama was not born in the United States. Earlier this month on CNBC, Trump used an appearance to claim that Mitt Romney should only release his tax returns if Obama releases his college transcripts, echoing a right-wing conspiracy that those documents indicate that he attended college as a foreign student.
UPDATE: In a subsequent tweet, Trump says of Huffington, "if you knew her and the phony Huffington Post you would understand" the harshness of his attack, and promises "more to follow."

Tina, Dax, Amy, and More TV Stars Celebrate Their Small-Screen Success at the NBC Upfronts
The NBC upfronts were packed with TV's hottest celebs in NYC yesterday. Christina Aguilera, Tina Fey, Joel McHale, and more were on hand for the event, which announces the network's small-screen schedules for the Fall season. Christina was there, along with Carson Daly, to promote The Voice, and she sat down on The Today Show this morning to talk about what attracted her to the judging job. Jenna Dewan was on hand for The Playboy Club, which also stars Eddie Cibrian, and she hung out with his wife, LeAnn Rimes, before the big press day. Pregnant Tina celebrated the renewal of 30 Rock, as did Parks and Recreation's Amy Poehler and Aziz Ansari. Amanda Peet talked up her new comedy with David Walton and Jeffrey Tambor, Bent, and shared that she will most likely bring her two daughters to the set when filming recommences. Christina Applegate stepped out following the January birth of her first child to chat about Up All Night with Maya Rudolph and Amy's husband, Will Arnett. Dax Shepard, Erika Christensen, and Lauren Graham represented Parenthood, and Nick Lachey made the quick trip to the Big Apple for The Sing-Off before heading back to LA.

CSS Zen GardenMay 07, 2003
With a few caveats and a bit of apprehension, I present to you my latest pet project: The CSS Zen Garden. (also available on it's own domain)
Inspired in roughly equal parts by Chris Casciano's Daily CSS Fun and rant (of which I strongly share the same opinion), the recent Hack Hotbot contest, and an independent idea I've had stuck in my head forever, I finally committed to creating this. I think it's needed. Even if it's not, I think it'll be fun.
Now for the caveats: Macs are quirky little devils, aren't they? I have it on good word that some of the designs work jes' fine in Safari and IE for Mac, while others do not. Having no Mac testing machine at the present time presents a bit of a problem in squashing those bugs. One of them is still a bit weird in IE5/Win, but I'm fixing that soon. Basically, my caveats boil down to: my CSS is valid, the browsers are a bit grumpy. We'll work out our differences.
The goal was to hit some important milestones: I wanted to create a page that allows for some wildly different CSS designs, while coding valid XHTML 1.1, valid CSS, and conforming to Section 508 and AAA accessibility guidelines. Time will tell how successful the former is, but the technical requirements were met.
Anyway, enjoy. I hope to address to quirky browser incompatibilities ASAP. Special thanks to Paul and Kris for the Mac screenshots.
Reader Comments
Very nice indeed. Thanks for the inspiration! I too see problems with 'stormweather' in Mozilla. Currently Moz 1.3b on win2k. Screenshot by mail if you want.
stormweather has problems in my Win/Phoenix nightly build, but otherwise everything is beautiful. One other nit: whouldn't the links to the different versions be better as a ul?
Mmmm. I hate to admit it, but I love the bloodlust design. It's the kind of design that can make graphics designers sit up and get excited about CSS. It kind of reminds me of the experimental designs from the Age of Tables & Fonts.
Stormweather is my next favorite. Altogether, lovely designs, all of them. Now, if you don't mind, i'm going to go sit in the corner and weep silently at my humbled design skills :-)
But it works in K-Meleon, another gecko-browser, so who knows?
Once again Dave, super nice job on the ZEN GARDEN project — very elegant. When I get a chance I'll have to take some time and crank out my own CSS and zap it your way. Things look pretty good in Safari and IE5 Mac. If you need any screen shots or Mac checks just let me know.
P.S. FYI Dave the link in the menu bar on Mezzoblue to the Zen Garden is going to the pocket site not the Zen Garden site.
Thanks all for the great comments! I'm very encouraged by the response I've been getting so far. I was a bit worried that I'd be eaten alive for some of the Mac quirks, and it seems that newer versions of Mozilla are having issues. Stormweather as a whole is quite the problem spot… I think I'd better look into that one.
And I think it's okay to like 'Blood Lust', Sherif. ;) I'm rather fond of that one too, mainly because it's completely different than what I'd normally do. I'm quite interested in seeing what kind of submissions I end up getting. I hope this project can substantially raise the bar for CSS design.
Thanks for the note, Jemaleddin. That one does seem to be the biggest problem spot, since neither IE/Mac or Safari like it right now. Pity, too, since I think it's my favorite right now.
I checked it in Moz1 and Netsape 7 and both are cool, so I guess it's a Phoenix quirk in this case… odd that a Mozilla derivative would disagree with the others.
Wow, nice work. There are a few small problems in Safari, but you know, it's still gets the point across, and small glitches aside, they are still usable. I'll check it on my PC at work to get the full effect.
safari = beta
Nice work. A great example of the power of using CSS and how it can be manipulated gracefully.
great job! nice and inspiring… i enjoyed your humble "black sheep" comment on web-graphics.com. nice to see a graphic designer that's not an arrogant jerk.
[off to come up w/ my own … ]
First off ALL the pages are extremely visually attractive. It's almost impossible to believe that the little bit XHTML ended looking so nice. But what shocked me more was when the styles were turn off. The page rendered perfectly, everything was structured correctly and in its place.
While many site use CSS+XHTML most look like crap with the styles off or viewed in a browser like lynx. Content that is supposed to be at the end of page ends up somewhere in the middle and long lists of text are often lined at the bottom. I'm a big supporter of proper HTML first CSS second and the demonstration page demonstrates that beautifully. It doesn't even make an attempt to cater to a particular medium making perfect sense on screen or in print (or in audio for that matter). Bottom line wonderful demonstration all around.
Good to see such a cool idea – and damn fine execution – is getting the response it deserves!
A little healthy competition and a truckload of zesty submissions could really change the tone of "The CSS Debate" when folks see what you can DO with CSS instead of repeatedly being told why they should do it.

Are you ready for the next-generation video game console wars to heat up? Sony is all set to unveil the long-rumored follow-up to the PlayStation 3 today starting at 6pm Eastern, and we'll be there liveblogging and covering it from all angles, of course. Before things get going, though, we thought it would be worthwhile to look at what the rumor mill has been saying about Sony's next system, and we'll offer some analysis of what's likely to be revealed today—and what's likely to stay secret for a little while longer.
Price and release date
Price and release date are the biggest unknowns, and they're least likely to be discussed publicly today. Sony didn't reveal the details of the PlayStation 3's launch until the May 2006 E3 show. The Xbox 360 wasn't priced until August 2005, and the international release dates weren't confirmed until that September. The release date and price for the Wii and Wii U were both closely guarded secrets until press events less than two months before their November releases. February is just too early to expect confirmation.
So we're left with rumors. The system is widely expected to be available worldwide this holiday season, but Edge is reporting that distribution concerns might push that back to early 2014 for Europe. Price is hard to gauge without knowing just what kind of hardware the system will be packing, but it's a pretty safe bet that Sony will do what it can to avoid the "FIVE HUNDRED AND NINETY NINE US DOLLARS"-style mockery it received last time around.
Hardware specs
This is another area we shouldn't expect too much in the way of details today. Console makers tend to play this information close to the vest in public, prerelease roll-outs, partially to let the games speak for themselves and partially to avoid using technical jargon that many laymen will misinterpret anyway. We might not get confirmation on the precise hardware configuration until the system is actually in our hands.
That said, various reports based on development hardware and anonymous insider sources all seem to be converging on the same basic set of facts: an eight-core, x86-based CPU running at 1.6Ghz, an AMD "Southern Islands" level GPU, and 4GB of RAM. Whatever it is, the hardware is supposed to be powerful enough to run games at 4K resolutions, or full 1080p games in stereoscopic 3D (the PS3 is limited to 720p 3D).
Sony is also widely expected to introduce a new, more advanced PlayStation Eye with its next system, possibly integrating Kinect-style 3D body tracking to match Microsoft. It's hard to say if this will be an integrated/packed-in bit of hardware or just an optional accessory, but we're leaning toward the latter.
Now that multiple leaked pictures have removed most of the mystery surrounding Sony's supposed redesigned controller, it would be a bit silly for Sony to continue playing coy and not simply publicly unveil the "DualShock 4" today. Expect talk of the touchpad, motion-tracking light, built-in speaker, and redesigned thumbsticks, but also expect one or two surprises that weren't revealed in the leaks. Also, don't expect that the final, consumer controller will look exactly like the development prototypes. Anyone remember the PS3 boomerang controller?
This should be the focus of any big console unveiling, and it probably will be today. It seems pretty likely that we'll see a few new games from Sony's internal studios announced for the PS4 today (even if they aren't shown as anything more than a logo). New Uncharted and God of War games seem like immensely safe bets, as well as a new Gran Turismo that uses the PS4's power for ever more detailed and realistic car porn (hopefully this one won't take forever to actually be released). A new shooter to continue the Killzone or Resistance franchises also seems pretty likely, even though neither of those exclusives carry as much weight as they used to. A new Singstar game will be a huge draw for European audiences as well.
Sony will also probably trot out a few selected third parties to talk up the power and promise of the PS4, but predicting just which ones is a little harder. Big names like Electronic Arts and Ubisoft have been frequent guests at previous PlayStation press events, and both likely have next-generation games they've been itching to show off on new hardware (such as Watch Dogs, perhaps?) I wouldn't be shocked if some engine makers are on hand to show off their next-gen tech as well; Konami's Hideo Kojima is set to present his "photo-realistic" Fox Engine at March's Game Developer's Conference, but today's event could be a good preview for that. And what of Singularity, the game that's seemingly behind the singularityps4.com domain name Sony recently registered? Will it be the next game from David Cage's Quantic Dream?
Don't forget dark-horse game predictions. If Sony really wants to make an impression, it will announce that the oft-delayed The Last Guardian has been moved to the new system and will be available at or near release. Personally, I'm hoping for a new Crash Bandicoot game to launch the PS4. It's just about time for the eight-year-olds that grew up with those titles to be nostalgic, right?
Sony has been extremely tight-lipped about its plans for cloud-gaming service Gaikai, for which it paid $380 million last year, but we can probably expect that silence to end today. Gaikai recently registered Web domains for ps-cloud and PlayStation-Cloud websites, and the Wall Street Journal recently reported that streaming technology would play a key role in the new system, so make sure your Internet connection is up to the challenge.
One obvious use for the Gaikai service would be as an extension of PlayStation Plus that lets players stream a wide selection of classics from previous PlayStation systems, without the need for a lengthy download or emulation. This would help solve what many see as a problem with traditional backwards compatibility on the next PlayStation, thanks to its rumored x86 chipset. There's an outside chance we could see some sort of Netflix-style subscription service to get all-you-can-eat PS4 games, but an à la carte model for these titles seems more likely.
Used game blocking
Technology to block the play of secondhand games seems to be the hot rumor surrounding the next generation of systems, and it will likely remain so after today. Even if Sony is planning to put up some sort of wall to block the used-game market, it's not the kind of thing it would trumpet from the rafters so far from launch, given the seemingly inevitable consumer backlash.
But will Sony actually do it? Well, the company patented a method for blocking secondhand game sales without an Internet connection, but that doesn't really prove anything other than "we're thinking about it." There's some hearsay about SCEA President Jack Tretton saying Sony was "totally opposed" to blocking used games, and most industry watchers seem to agree that Sony won't pull the trigger. Still, there are a few that seem just as sure that the company is determined to finally kill off the GameStop business model.
The name
Even though we've been casually calling this system the "PlayStation 4" in our coverage for a while now, Sony has never actually officially acknowledged that product name. After naming the past three PlayStation's sequentially, jumping off the bandwagon for number four would be a little unexpected. Then again, the Vita could have easily been the "PlayStation Portable 2" and... it wasn't. The codename Orbis does have a nice ring to it...
And the rest...
I'd be surprised if the press is allowed hands-on time with the in-development demos at this early date. More likely, we'll get a lot of video footage and a chance to look at a proposed shell for the system and the controller behind glass.
The presentation is scheduled to last two hours, which leaves plenty of time for unexpected bloopers. Internet remixers will be keeping a keen eye out for this year's "Giant Enemy Crab."

A packed house of firefighters waited anxiously Monday night, Jan. 14, moments before Lancaster County Council accepted a federal grant to boost manpower in the county's fire service.
Council chambers was packed before the vote with row after row of volunteer firefighters, fire chiefs and fire service members, many with their respective fire department logos emblazoned on their shirts.
INDIAN LAND – Blessed with an abundance of streams and rivers crisscrossing miles of rolling forests and rich farmland, Indian Land was once prized by the Catawba Indians and early settlers for its natural resources, including its wildlife.
Though it's easy to forget with all the suburban growth of the past decade, those rich forests off Indian Land's main corridors are still home to an amazing range of wild game – including some species you might not expect to see so close to home.
The recently concluded Ward Faulkenberry Memorial Christmas Basket fund provided assistance for many local families who have fallen on tough times.
In its last report, HOPE in Lancaster had received $8,700 in donations, which goes toward food for Lancaster County families in need.
The nonprofit organization manages the drive, which has just wrapped up its 53rd year.
HOPE staff decided to extend the donation period this time until mid-January. In years past, it concluded at the end of December.
Details surrounding the alledged attack of a woman at a house party earlier this month remain unclear, as investigators continue to interview witnesses.
Officers responded at 3:53 a.m. Jan. 2 to a home in the 300 block of Elm Street about a loud noise complaint, according to a Lancaster Police Department incident report.
When they arrived, officers saw several vehicles leaving the area, though there were still several people inside the home.
There's been a delay to the start of the 2013 tax season.
Because of new federal legislation enacted Jan. 2 in response to the "fiscal cliff," the Internal Revenue Service won't begin processing individual income tax returns until Jan. 30.
In typical years, the process starts around the middle of the month.
A contract newspaper carrier for The Lancaster News was arrested this week after investigators concluded he lied to them about an armed robbery.
Leon Caskey, 45, 422 Gay St., was arrested Thursday, Jan. 10, and charged with filing a false police report, according to a Lancaster County Sheriff's Office press release.
The charges are related to a report Caskey filed Jan. 6 saying he was robbed at gunpoint by two men.

ROCK HILL – More than 58,000 new residents and $427 million in additional revenue.
The numbers jump off the page as economists discuss the projected impact of extending Dave Lyle Boulevard from Rock Hill into Lancaster County.
A special presentation on the matter was held Thursday evening, Jan. 10, at Winthrop University. Economists at the university's College of Business Administration unveiled statistics from their study that analyzed how the eastward extension of Dave Lyle would greatly affect retail in the region.

Transportation studies and local government plans are tops on Lancaster County Council's agenda for its first meeting of the new year, Monday, Jan. 14.
Monday will be first official meeting for recently elected council members Brian Carnes (District 7), Bob Bundy (District 3) and Steve Harper (District 5).
Council will first hear a briefing on the possibility of Lancaster County joining the Rock Hill, Fort Mill Area Transportation Study, also known as RFATS.
A Lancaster man was arrested after deputies say he threatened another man with a shotgun Jan. 5.
John Edwin Wright, 45, 3850 Happy Trails, was charged with pointing and presenting a firearm.
According to a Lancaster County Sheriff's Office incident report, a deputy responded about 5:16 p.m. that day to the report of a man with a gun inside 522 Collision, 3060 N. Rocky River Road.

In a recent poll nearly two thirds readers said that when buying a printer their first consideration is the cost of replacement ink cartridges.
It's a sensible approach: in almost all cases of long-term printer ownership, the life time cost of purchasing consumables will be greater than the initial cost of the printer, and often the cheapest model in the store will prove to be a more expensive purchase. Of course, a lot depends on how often you are going to use the printer, and for how long.
When asked 'When buying a new printer, which factor is your main priority?', 59 percent of respondents to a poll - in association with kodak - chose the response 'Price of replacement ink cartridges.
When buying a printer, it is important to consider he TCO (total cost of ownership), or the cost of replenishing toner and other consumables over the lifetime of the printer. Most manufacturers quote a 'page yield' estimate for their ink cartridges, which is the typical number of pages you can expect to print before the cartridge runs out of ink.
You can use the page yield to calculate the average cost per page and you'd be surprised to find how much this can vary from one printer to another. But printer manufacturers have been known to produce favourable figures: always check figures to get the true low down. According to research you can view at www.printkodak.co.uk, Kodak All-in-One printers have the lowest ink replacement costs in the UK.
The second biggest group of respondents, 14 percent, chose the option: 'Price of the printer'. This is a sensible option only if you are intending to purchase a printer as a short-term investment, or you use your printer only rarely. There are occasional bargains to be had with older models or in the sales, but be sure to investigate the TCO so you can make an informed decision.
Other factors that matter to PC Advisor readers when choosing a printer are print quality, with 13 percent choosing this option, connectivity features - the choice of 8 percent - and ease of setup and use, which was selected by 6 percent.

And utilizing him in the 2nd line role where defense is pretty much secondary, because you rarely see the other team's top line and they rarely burn their best checking line on you, is perfect for Jumbo because if there has ever been a component of his game that seemed to be lacking, it was in his own end.Farhan Lalji wrote: A 3 headed demon of Hank-Thornton-Kess at center would be deadly.
I don't think teams would have a clue what to do against a Canucks team that put those 3 guys down the middle and added wingers like Higgins, Dank, Bur, Booth, Hansen, and Raymond.....yes even I will say that a guy like Thornton would really make Raymond a $2.5M steal.
The other interesting thing - is that if the Canucks were to hypothetically acquire Joe Thornton............and face the Boston Bruins again in a cup final, we'd have a guy that would probably want to "stick it" to Boston just as much as we do.
Having said that - assuming that San Jose would want to go into rebuild mode, what could we possibly offer the Sharks to entice them?
I'm guessing that it would involve atleast Schneider, Tanev, and Schroeder........minimum.
Speaking of Schneider - it's what I really like about the idea of *possibly* using Schneider as trade bait. Although Schneider is going to be an amazing goalie (if he isn't already), it's a guy like Schneider that could definitively land us that "big fish." The Rick Nash's, Shea Weber's, and Joe Thornton's of this world. Maybe Luongo can do that as well, but I'm just not sure.

How cute are these stars.. those of you who know me, know how much I love love stars, especially when they come in sets of 3- how cute would these be to share with friends, sisters or co-workers this Holiday Season?? I am going to have to give them a try...
- 3/4 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup confectioners' sugar
- 3 egg yolks
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1 1/2 cups ground roasted and salted pistachios
- Cherry jam
In a small bowl, combine flour, nutmeg and cardamom. Gradually add to butter mixture, beating until combined. Beat in ground pistachios. Cover and chill for 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

This past weekend, actor Michael Clarke Duncan lost his battle.
He was only 54 when he passed away at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center where he had been staying for two months while recovering from a heart attack he had in mid July. Had it not been for the help of former Apprentice contestant Rev. Omarosa Manigault, who performed CPR on him, he might have died that night.
According to TMZ:
Sources involved in Duncan's treatment tell us … on July 13 the actor went without oxygen for more than 5 minutes before Omarosa was able to re-start his heart with CPR. We're told 5 minutes is the outer limit before permanent damage is likely. Duncan's decline was slow but steady. First it was a kidney problem, then the pancreas, then extremely high blood pressure, and so on, until his body just shut down.
His passing came very suddenly. We're told his fiancee, Omarosa Manigault, was with him in his hospital room in Los Angeles and left for a short period of time. When she returned … he had died. Omarosa's mother was with him when he passed.
Omarosa, who was planning to wed Michael Clarke Duncan in January 2013, has released a statement through her rep:
Omarosa Manigault is grateful for all of your prayers and asks for privacy at this time. Celebrations of his life, both private and public, will be announced at a later date
She also tells Radar Online:
'I am devastated! I lost the love of my life!'
At 6'5″ and 300 pounds Michael had become Hollywood's favorite gentle giant through his roles in movies like 'The Green Mile', 'Armageddon' and 'Kung-Fu Panda.'
He will be missed.

Violence flared again in southern Kyrgyzstan Monday, after authorities raided an Uzbek village, killing at least two people and wounding 23 others.
Kyrgyz officials say the operation in the village of Nariman was launched to look for suspected criminals and weapons. But rights groups say police carried out the raid near the city of Osh in response to the killing of a police officer last week.
Witnesses say a gunbattle erupted after security forces moved into the village. At least seven people were detained, and rights groups say several people were beaten.
The south remains tense following clashes between ethnic Kyrgyz and Uzbeks that began June 10 in the cities of Osh and Jalalabad, and killed an estimated 2,000 people. Some 400,000 people have fled the violence, with many Uzbek refugees still fearful of returning home.
During a visit to the south Monday, interim leader Roza Otunbayeva pledged to go ahead with a June 27 referendum on a new constitution despite the continuing state of emergency in the region. She said any delays will lead to further instability.
Turkey and Kazakhstan on Monday backed the vote plan and said they would offer their support to Kyrgyzstan.
Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu discussed the situation in Kyrgyzstan with his Kazakh counterpart, Kanat Saudabayev, and Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev in (the Kazakh capital) Astana. Davutoglu said the two countries plan to prepare joint actions to provide help to Kyrgyzstan immediately following the June 27 referendum.
The interim government has blamed deposed President Kurmanbek Bakiyev and his supporters for causing the violence, but he has denied any involvement.
Mr. Bakiyev was ousted in an April 7 uprising that killed 85 people. Many of his supporters are based in the south.
Meanwhile, international humanitarian aid continues to arrive in Kyrgyzstan. The United Nations World Food Program said a plane carrying food rations for 30,000 people arrived in Osh on Monday.
Some information for this report was provided by AP, AFP and Reuters.

May 15, 2008
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - Lindsay Gottlieb, formerly the associate head coach at Cal, has been named the new head coach of the UC Santa Barbara women's basketball program, Director of Athletics Gary Cunningham announced Thursday.
Gottlieb, who becomes just the fourth coach in program history, will be formally introduced at a press conference Friday morning at 11:00 a.m.
"Lindsay Gottlieb is an outstanding basketball coach and a great fit for UC Santa Barbara," Cunningham said. "She has been an important part of several very successful programs and, considering her experience, I have no doubt that she will help our program continue its tradition of success. We all look forward to working with Lindsay in the pursuit of excellence."
"Our UC Santa Barbara community is absolutely thrilled to welcome Lindsay Gottlieb as our new women's basketball head coach," said Chancellor Henry T. Yang. "We take great pride in the long and sustained achievements of our women's basketball program under the legendary leadership of Coach Mark French. We confidently anticipate an exciting new era ahead under Coach Gottlieb, who comes to us with a proven track record of leadership and success. My wife, Dilling, and I look forward to joining our Gaucho fans at the games to cheer for Coach Gottlieb, our coaching staff, and all our outstanding student athletes."
After helping turn Cal into one of the premiere programs in college basketball, Gottlieb replaces Mark French, who announced his retirement last month. UCSB's all-time winningest coach posted a career record of 438-200 and guided the Gauchos to 13 Big West Conference Championships and 12 NCAA Tournament appearances in 21 seasons in Santa Barbara.
Gottlieb takes over a Gaucho squad that went 23-8 overall last season and returned to the Big Dance for the first time since 2005.
"I am absolutely thrilled to be the next head women's basketball coach at UCSB," Gottlieb said. "I am very excited and I look forward to building on the great tradition that Mark French has established here. This job is one of the true gems in the women's college basketball world because of the program's success, the tradition, and the community support. I feel extremely honored for the opportunity to lead the program going forward."
Gottlieb comes to Santa Barbara after spending the last three seasons as an assistant at Cal, where she helped guide the Golden Bears to an overall record of 68-28 (.708) over that span. In her first year as associate head coach under Joanne Boyle, Gottlieb helped Cal register an impressive 27-7 mark last season, which set a school record for wins. The Bears earned a third consecutive NCAA Tournament berth and advanced to the second round where they upset by George Washington, 55-53.
The Scarsdale, N.Y. native worked with all aspects of the program during her tenure at Cal, including recruiting and scouting and served as the team's academic liaison. Gottlieb was an integral part of the development of the Golden Bears' post players and worked extensively with Devanei Hampton and Ashley Walker, who were both named State Farm/WBCA honorable mention All-Americans in 2007-08.
Cal posted its first winning season in 13 years in Gottlieb's first year on the staff in 2005-06 and the Bears qualified for the Big Dance for the first time since 1993. In 2006-07, Gottlieb helped Cal to an overall record of 23-9 and the Bears earned another bid to the NCAA Tournament after posting their best-ever Pac-10 finish at 12-6.
Prior to her arrival at Cal, Gottlieb was an assistant coach under Boyle for three seasons at the University of Richmond, where she helped lead the Spiders to three straight 20-win seasons and a postseason appearance each year. In 2004-05 Richmond finished with a 23-8 overall record and earned the program's first NCAA Tournament berth in 14 years. The Spiders qualified for the WNIT in 2003 and 2004.
Before joining the staff at Richmond, Gottlieb served as an assistant coach at New Hampshire in 2001-02, under head coach Sue Johnson. She was also an assistant coach for two years at Syracuse alongside Marianna Freeman and obtained additional coaching expertise with the Westchester Basketball Association AAU program and Kutsher's Sports Academy.
Gottlieb graduated from Brown in 1999 with a bachelor's of arts degree in political science and earned her master's degree in philosophy of education while at Syracuse. After playing for Brown she was a student assistant coach during the 1998-99 campaign and received the Team Heart and Soul Award in 1999.

Jon Weisman on the sad–okay, infuriating–turn of events for the Dodgers:
I haven't been at Dodger Stadium in the past week, and I'm also familiar with no-shows dotting Dodger Stadium in the best of times, but there have been too many reports to ignore from longtime Dodger watchers that things had really changed. I've been a passionate skeptic of fan boycotts, but even I have to concede that there was a statement being made here. More and more people just didn't want any part of this.
The thing is, it hasn't been an organized boycott, not on any widespread level. It's been people on their own coming to the conclusion that life was too short to waste on a franchise in this condition.
This includes people like my father, who chose during the offseason not to renew my family's season tickets for a 30th season. It also includes the people who typically would improvise their ticket purchases after the season was underway.
That's not to say Dodger Stadium was or would be empty. Some still show up because they love the team through thick and decidedly thin. The game's pull remains strong. I myself have been trying to figure out when to get my kids to their first game of 2011.
But things haven't been this low at Dodger Stadium before, have they? I think back to 1992, the worst team in Los Angeles Dodger history playing against the backdrop of a city torn by riots, and there was not such bitterness over the state of ownership.

Two councils have asked the Government for £1 million to fund a long-term flood prevention plan to protect thousands of homes and businesses near the Surrey county border with London.
Last month, Surrey and Croydon councils, plus Tandridge Council, the military and Environment Agency, built four temporary reservoirs in Woldingham to prevent Caterham Bourne floodwater from affecting the Kenley waterworks that serves thousands of nearby homes and businesses.
Now, the two councils, with support from the Environment Agency, have asked the Department for the Environment to give £1 million from a flood relief pot to build up to four permanent reservoirs to last several decades.
Two of the permanent reservoirs could be built near Woldingham, with the others likely to be nearer Kenley. Council experts will start work on detailed designs and locations if funding is approved, but no date has yet been fixed on a Government funding decision.
Councillor Mike Fisher, leader of Croydon Council, said: "Despite everyone's hard work there are some residents and businesses still counting the cost of damage to property and loss of trade. However, the situation would have been far worse if the waterworks had failed. This would have put tens of thousands of homes at the risk of loss of fresh water and would also have increased the likelihood of even more severe local flooding.
"The team responsible for managing the recent situation proved through various temporary measures how effective the use of reservoirs can be. Putting in permanent solutions has to be our next priority as we have a responsibility to protect the safety of local people."
John Furey, Surrey County Council's Cabinet Member for Highways and the Environment, said: "We're working hard to keep the residents of Surrey safe, and we hope the Government will fund our long-term plan with Croydon to build on the success of our temporary reservoirs."
The reservoirs slowed and diverted enough water so the A22 between Whyteleafe Hill and the waterworks was re-opened on Monday, 10 March.
