ALBANY, Ore. — He noticed it first thing and had to laugh. The 2012 Census of Agriculture showed the average age of American farmers has risen to 58.3 years old. Doug Krahmer, a blueberry grower, turned 58 in January.
"This year, oh crap, I'm at the median age," he says with a chuckle. "I'm no longer one of the young guys."
Statistics tell only part of the story, of course. Geography, climate, crop or livestock differences, experience, farming methods and the twists of the market all determine how agriculture is practiced across the country. But in broad strokes, Krahmer fits the census profile of an American farmer: 58, white, male, experienced and successful.
And, certainly in the case of Krahmer and other farmers throughout Oregon, Washington, Idaho and California, thinking hard about what comes next. Sitting still isn't an option.
"I've never been under the misconception that you could stay a smaller size and continue to be viable," Krahmer says. "I've always told my workers and my kids, if we're not growing we're dying. It continues to be true, whether we like it or not."
Fewer, bigger farms
More detailed census information will come in May, but the preliminary data show continuing themes. The number of farms continues to drop, falling to 2.1 million nationally in 2012. That's nearly 100,000 fewer farms than were reported in the 2007 Census. But the amount of farmland acreage dipped by less than 1 percent nationally and the average farm size increased to 434 acres, compared to 418 acres in 2007. That indicates farmers are consolidating and picking up land from people who leave the profession.
The five years between census reports were good ones for many farmers. With prices high, the market value of U.S. agricultural products topped $394 billion in 2012, nearly $100 billion more than in 2007. The average market value produced per farm jumped to $187,093 — almost $53,000 more than in 2007.
California led the way. With only 3.6 percent of the nation's farms, it accounts for about 11 percent of the nation's agricultural production, California Farm Bureau Federation spokesman Dave Kranz said in an email. At the same time, the average California farm, at 328 acres, is 24 percent smaller than the national average, he said.
"That reflects the unusual diversity of crops and growing areas in California, and the efficiency of California farmers and ranchers in producing food and farm products," Kranz said.
The census also shows national trends don't always hold at the state level. Nationally, crop sales value exceeded livestock sales for only the second time, the first being 1974. But the reverse was true in Idaho, where sales of livestock products, especially milk, predominate, said University of Idaho Extension economist Garth Taylor. As recently as 2013, one-third of Idaho's farm gate cash receipts were milk checks to dairy farmers, Taylor said.
Idaho also bucked the trend by adding to its amount of farmland, increasing to 11.7 million acres from 11.5 million in 2007.
In Washington, the market value of ag products soared almost 34 percent to $9.1 billion. While the number of farms fell, as in other states, the biggest drop came among farms where the principal operator's primary occupation was something other than farming.
"We didn't lose as many of those who are full-time farmers," said Christopher Mertz, director of the Northwest regional office of the National Agricultural Statistics Service in Olympia, Wash.
Future of farming
The face of farming is changing, as the number of Hispanic, Asian and African American farmers jumped significantly in the 2012 Census. But the average age of farmers continues to increase — it's 60.1 in California, among the highest nationally — and that poses an ongoing succession issue. More than 1.3 million American farmers, well over half the country's producers, are in the 55- to 75-year-old age range or older.
To some, that's not a critical issue. "When I came out of school, the same thought process was going on, and that was 30 years ago," said Bruce Lindauer, 52, a third-generation grower with about 500 acres of walnuts, pistachios and plums for prunes in Los Molinos, Calif.
"Everyone asks about the future of farming," he said. "It really goes back to the person. If they've got the inclination (to keep their farm going), they're going to find a way to do it."
In his case, he'd like to see his children take over the business someday. But "I don't want to twist their arm," he said.
It's a tough profession for the young to crack. Nationally, there are more than twice as many farmers age 75 and above as there are age 34 and below.
"It's almost impossible for a young guy to get started," said Duane Hubbard, who grows hay, corn, wheat and beans on 500 acres near Ephrata, Wash. "I have two sons. Both want to farm and we can't pick up the acres. They are held by farms 10 times our size.
"The small are getting smaller," Hubbard said. "That's what's happening in our area. I don't want to be whining, but it's reality."
The question of who takes over the farm is one that unsettles families. The Austin Family Business Center at Oregon State University is planning two workshops this year on farm succession, director Sherri Noxel said.
"We want to pull in the 58-year-olds," she said, referring to the average farmer age. "If they are like other businesses we work with, 80 percent want (the farm) to stay in the family, but only 29 percent build a succession plan."
Krahmer, the Oregon blueberry grower, acknowledges he fits that profile, too. One daughter, Crystal Gonzalez, works in banking, but his other two children — Zach Krahmer and Annie Krahmer — have come back into the business. Doug Krahmer says he has a succession plan in his head but has yet to commit it to paper.
In the past five years he's refocused the family business, giving up custom farming work that diverted resources and dropping some of the other crops he grew on the side. Now he grows 521 acres of blueberries and one acre of blackberries on scattered sites in the Albany, St. Paul and Clatskanie areas.
His parents, grandparents and great-grandparents all farmed in Oregon, a legacy dating to 1877. Today, Krahmer has a statewide leadership role to fill as a member of the Oregon Board of Agriculture.
Blueberries have done well, but decisions continue to churn. Should he strive for vertical integration, and do his own processing and packing? He's passed for now on exporting fresh berries to South Korea as some growers do, but keeps an eye on it. Varietal and marketing choices come and go, and right now he's got nearly three dozen pruners at work, shaping the woody blueberry bushes for the coming crop.
"You can't sit stagnant very long in this business," he says, and he smiles at an offered description: You have to be quick on your feet but still maintain a long view. "Yep, yep," he says.
"I wouldn't say I'm the best grower in the world, but it's what I like to do."
And that's something the census doesn't measure.

Police continue to investigate suspicious death of woman in ExeterBy JASON SCHREIBER
Union Leader Correspondent
March 07. 2013 8:38AM
EXETER — The state Attorney General's Office and State Police Major Crime Unit have joined Exeter police in their investigation of a woman's body found during a fire inside an abandoned concrete plant Thursday morning.
The body of the unidentified woman was discovered by firefighters when they arrived to fight a fire reported around 7 a.m. on the second floor of the old City Concrete building at 2 Hampton Road. An autopsy will be performed Friday in an attempt to determine a cause of death.
Senior Assistant Attorney General Susan Morrell, who has been assigned to the case, declined to provide details on the probe. A press release issued by the Attorney General's Office late Thursday called it a "suspicious death."
The grisly discovery prompted investigators to spend much of the day searching the area around the concrete plant, which closed some 20 years ago.
Police wrapped yellow crime-scene tape around a dark gray Hyundai Elantra with New Hampshire license plates parked at the entrance to the plant and later put a tent over the vehicle and tarps around it. Police took numerous photographs of the car, which passersby said was parked at the plant since early Thursday morning.
Fire Chief Brian Comeau said the fire was small and that he wasn't sure how it started. The fire was considered suspicious from the start because it's a vacant building with no electricity.
"It's very early in the incident," he said, referring all further comments to police.
State police arrived at the scene just before 8:30 a.m., followed by investigators from the state Fire Marshal's Office. By late morning, investigators began focusing their attention on a Dumpster located outside the Exeter Recreation Center next door. They appeared to be searching for evidence and at one point placed a tarp over the top. They also snapped photographs around the Dumpster and taped off an area behind a shed on the recreation center property.
State police later began searching a black Honda parked across the street at Access Sports Medicine & Orthopaedics. They spent about an hour inspecting the vehicle.
The scene at the concrete plant startled Angie Estright, who works at Myers Chiropractic Clinic across the street and noticed the fire on her way to work just before 7 a.m.
"I could see flames and smoke pouring from the windows," she said. Estright said she saw fire trucks pulling into the concrete plant as soon as she arrived at work.
Police are known to patrol the old plant on a routine basis, often parking their cruisers at the entrance. "Everybody in the area knows that," she said.
Previous story follows:
EXETER - Authorities are investigating after a body was discovered inside an abandoned concrete plant where a fire was reported Thursday morning.
Exeter police Capt. Bill Shupe said the body was found by firefighters when they arrived at the scene around 7 a.m. at the old City Concrete building at 2 Hampton Road.
Police have released few details about the body found inside the concrete plant. It is believed to be a woman, but no other information has been made available.
The state Attorney General's Office has joined the investigation. "We are aware of the scene and we are sending personnel to assist Major Crime and Exeter police," associate attorney general Jane Young said this afternoon. Young would not provide more details on the investigation.
Police earlier in the day wrapped yellow crime scene tape around a gray Hyundai Elantra parked at the entrance to the plant. Later, they placed a tent and tarps around the car and did not explain how the car may be connected.
Shortly after noon, state and local police remained at the scene. A state police major crime unit truck arrived just after noon. A short time earlier, police appeared to be searching a Dumpster located at the Exeter recreation center and placed a tarp over it. The recreation center is located next to the concrete plant. Yellow crime scene tape remained across the entrance to the recreation center and the concrete plant.
Investigators took numerous photographs of the car after firefighters quickly knocked down the fire on the second floor of the building.
Fire Chief Brian Comeau said the fire was small and that he wasn't sure how it may have started.
State police arrived just before 8:30 a.m. to assist Exeter police in the investigation. The state fire marshal's office was also expected to send an investigator.

Shareholder payout has Market Basket workers worried
By DAVE SOLOMON
New Hampshire Union Leader
A Suffolk County Superior Court judge has cleared the way for a $300 million payout to Market Basket shareholders, a move that depletes 60 percent of the grocery chain's available cash and will forever change how the company operates, according to President and CEO Arthur T. Demoulas.
He was unsuccessful in convincing Judge Judith Fabricant that his cousin, Arthur S. Demoulas, has stacked the company's board of directors in violation of a previous court order requiring that three directors on the seven-member board be independent of the Demoulas family.
Ken Ficek, a 32-year employee who is an assistant manager at the Storrs Street Market Basket in Concord, said employees expected the Boston, Mass., court decision would not go Arthur T.'s way.
"We kind of figured it was going to happen," he said. "Most of us are worried about our profit-sharing. It's kind of up in the air right now."
Joe Lessard, a 20-year employee who is a full-time aisle clerk at the Fort Eddy Road store in Concord, said he can't understand why board members of a profitable, debt-free company want to reverse course.
"It's kind of nerve-wracking," he said. "This is a company that has no debt and they want to go into debt. It's kind of alarming, you know?"
At issue in the lawsuit was the election of Keith O. Cowan, formerly a representative of the Arthur S. Demoulas faction on the board, to one of three seats that is supposed to be held by a director without any family ties. Arthur T. maintains that Arthur S. now controls the board because he controls one of the three directors who is supposed to be independent.
Cowan, a wealthy Georgia-based attorney and retired business executive, has said at previous board meetings that it is the prerogative of the nine family members who hold shares in the company to demand cash. "It is incumbent on the board to help shareholders find the path to liquidity if that is the desire of the shareholders," he said at a July 18 board meeting, as hundreds of Market Basket employees protested outside in support of the incumbent CEO.
Fabricant, in a ruling issued Tuesday, denied the request by attorneys for Arthur T. Demoulas for an injunction blocking the $300 million dividend payment and other actions of the new board, pending the outcome of his lawsuit over Cowan's appointment.
"If Cowan agrees with Arthur S. based on his own independent judgment, then the two will vote the same," she wrote. "The pattern does not indicate that Arthur S. controls him."
Fabricant was not convinced that Arthur T. will prevail at trial, nor did she agree that he would suffer imminent or irreparable harm from the board's recent decisions to issue the dividend, establish a line of credit and hire an executive recruiting firm that many employees fear will lead to the ouster of the popular company president.
"Issuance of an injunction would impose real and substantial harm on the defendants," she wrote. "Aside from delaying distribution of funds, it would deprive defendants of corporate democracy."
A spokesperson for Arthur T. said he is disappointed by the ruling.
"The court's decision is based on the legal definition of irreparable harm," wrote Justine Griffin, senior vice president at Rasky Baerlein Strategic Communications. "But this is a money grab by some of the shareholders and is the very definition of irreparable harm from a business perspective. Taking out 60 percent of the cash on hand from the company will break Market Basket's proven business model, and forever change how the company operates and grows."
The two cousins have been in a struggle for control of the company, built by their fathers, for well over two decades. Arthur T. enjoyed majority support on the board since his appointment as CEO in 2008, until a bloc of family members switched their votes to align with Arthur S. at the company's annual meeting in June.
"Arthur S. Demoulas showed little doubt that with the board reconstituted, his vengeance was at hand," wrote attorneys for Arthur T. in seeking the injunction. The case is now likely to proceed to email@example.com

SMD owner Stephen has several years experience within the tiling trade, creating beautiful tiling arrangements with a exceptional eye for detail which other tiling companies don't possess. This is a really important aspect when tiling any wall or floor as most tiles these days either have a pattern or are slightly embossed and are duplicated within each pack, so it's essential that the tiling pattern flows naturally throughout your bathroom, kitchen, hallway or conservatory. So often tilers place tiles on walls or floors in a regular pattern which can be unbalanced and isn't pleasing on the eye. It takes years of trade experience to gain this knowledge and that's what SMD Tiling Services have.

SAN ANDREAS - An autopsy completed Tuesday confirmed that two teenagers and their father, whose bodies were discovered over the weekend in their Murphys home, died the same way - of gunshot wounds.
SAN ANDREAS - An autopsy completed Tuesday confirmed that two teenagers and their father, whose bodies were discovered over the weekend in their Murphys home, died the same way - of gunshot wounds.
"Cause of death is all going to be single gunshot wound to the head for everybody," Calaveras County Coroner Kevin Raggio said.
Calaveras County sheriff's investigators on Saturday afternoon found Phillip Marshall, 54, dead on the floor inside the front door of his home in the Forest Meadows subdivision. His children, Macaila Marshall, 14, and Alex Marshall, 17, were on a couch.
Investigators said that evidence at the scene showed that Phillip Marshall shot the two children, probably as they slept, and then turned the gun on himself.
The family dog, also dead from a gunshot, was found in a bedroom.
Investigators found a Glock 9 mm handgun in the home and determined it was the weapon used.
The killings have thrown the tight-knit communities along Highway 4 into a period of intense grieving. Macaila and Alex had attended Bret Harte Union High in Angels Camp. A candlelight vigil in their memory is scheduled on the campus at 7 p.m. today.
The children's mother, Sean Marshall, was traveling on business in Turkey at the time of the killings. Raggio said she is expected to arrive in the area soon to claim the remains and make funeral arrangements.
Investigators say they did not find any evidence at the scene to indicate what motivated Phillip Marshall to kill his children.
Crime reports filed in 2008, however, indicate conflict between Marshall and his wife. Phillip Marshall was jailed briefly on suspicion of slapping Sean Marshall's sister, although he was not prosecuted.

The NQ is currently lower than it was exactly a week ago. That was the forecast, but it's not exactly what I had in mind. The market flopped, but by Tuesday it held support, the bears gave up and we've come nearly full circle as far as tech goes. In terms of the Dow we've done even better. The countdown to the all-time high is in earnest. We've reached the point where if you run to get a cup of coffee, the all-time high could be breached.
I'm willing to bet there are more than a few bears who never thought we'd be in this position ever again.
Last week, we had quite a bit of good economic data. You can see it elsewhere but housing and confidence numbers came in better than expected. The hope is the lousy GDP number in the 4th quarter is an outlier due to Hurricane Sandy. However, economists predict the Sequester is going to trim GDP as we go forward and that's the problem. Right now the market is telling us it believes the good numbers are more important than the looming budget cuts. Maybe with the seriously low VIX the market still thinks politicos will come up with a way out. As you know complacency still is the theme of the day. I don't believe that. I wouldn't have thought so but it appears the market can sometimes be a perverse mechanism. As you know, sometimes in earnings reporting season individual stocks go up when they announce layoffs. This could be one of those times.
There's 2 dynamics at work here. First we have the market and then we have the economy. A sidebar is the political commentary that goes along with this event. We just discussed the market; it seems bears gave up once again once prices got to important support. These aren't the same bears from 2008 or even 2001. They are scarred by the events of 2011 and don't seem to have the stomach to push prices below first important support. Then we have the economy and history suggests this sequester is a horrible idea. All you need to do is look at 1936 and 37 to see the advent of Great Depression II. It dismays me to see how many disingenuous pundits rewrite the history of the 30's because so many haven't studied the facts.
The truth of the matter is Roosevelt felt the heat from budget hawks to attempt to bring the budget in line. It put the New Deal and the Keynesian philosophy in jeopardy. In fact, many despise and discredit Keynesian economics to this day. I can't say it's a failed methodology because they really gave up on it before it had a chance to really bear fruit. All I can tell you is New Deal stimulus defeated a lot the spirit of fear prevailing in the early 30's and set the stock market on a 5 year bull market. What is really wrong with that? At risk of being a broken record it was Hoover who determined the best course of action in 1930 was to balance the budget. How did that work out for him?
Everyone knows they have to cut government waste. Why can't you get 20 smart people in a room with a real scissor and cut out areas that are really wasteful? Why can't we get a bipartisan vision for the future of the country? You just can't throw people out of work and expect good to come from it. Austerity has failed everywhere it's been tried. All it really takes is one disaffected worker to go into some school, do the unthinkable and turn the whole country upside down. The problem here is that extreme politics doesn't consider the social cost and implications to knee jerk policy which is what the sequester really is. They came up with some painful cuts because nobody actually intended for it to become law. Well, we discussed it last week.
So where does that leave the market? Just as dysfunctional and complacent as it was a week ago and a month ago. Markets have a perfect right to be irrational and they are proving they could be irrational longer than traders have money to bet against it. Right now the Dow has an excellence chance to get that new high and the SPX is sitting right in the middle of a small degree trading range. I learned a long time ago that the trend is your friend until it is proven otherwise.
We were willing to indulge a pullback until the sequester became reality simply because I've seen dozens of these crisis type situations resolve almost to the day the crisis point becomes a reality. It didn't work out that way this time. However it doesn't change the fact this is March and it's the time of year for the Gann Master Timing window at the seasonal change point to the end of winter. It was always the better probability turn so now that we are so close we'll continue to look for the high later this month.
The US Dollar remains higher and last week it broke through the turbulence of key resistance. It still has moderately higher targets, to about 82.68 and if that breaches we are looking at 83.40. Finally, we have Gold where the XAU is hitting the upper zone of a bunch of Fibonacci based targets from about 133 down to 120. It's finally possible although not yet probable we could see a low in the precious metals.

SAN ANDREAS - The Calaveras County Coroner on Monday identified a woman killed in a weekend vehicle accident between Avery and Arnold as Jessica Fabbro, 50, of Murphys.
The California Highway Patrol reported that Fabbro was driving at an unknown speed east on Highway 4 in her 2002 Honda Civic about 1:25 p.m. Sunday when her vehicle turned northbound directly into the path of a westbound 2008 Honda Pilot west of Red Tail Hawk Road.
The Pilot, traveling 45 miles per hour, collided with the Civic, causing Fabbro's fatal injuries, CHP said.
The Pilot's driver, Cindy Gentile, 53, and passenger Gregory Gentile, 58, were taken to Mark Twain St. Joseph's Hospital in San Andreas complaining of pain. Passenger Bronte Gentile, 14, was uninjured. The family is from Los Gatos.

Gay Marriage and Coming Out of the Closet
A Republican San Diego Mayor reversed his decision to veto gay marriage legislation due primarily to knowing people who are gay, like his daughter and some staff members.
There is power in knowing someone who believes differently. Real power! The gays initiated a campaign where they called on people to come of the closet. Dawkins has done the same. It's time for non-believers to come out of the closet. We are their neighbors, their friends, and their loved ones. We can make a difference if we simply tell people. Think about it: 1/4th of us may be non-believers!
I understand there is a difference between people who don't believe and those who actively argue against Christianity like we do here at DC. Those who argue against that delusion may not want to tell others they're doing this. But I urge all non-believers to simply tell people the truth, that you don't believe, especially to your friends and family. That's the minimum obligation you have, and it worked with this Mayor. Just think about all of our non-believing forebearers who suffered so much that we might have more and more freedoms to speak out. Your difficulties will be minor inconveniences compared to theirs.
Kerry Walker, for instance, claims he's being prosecuted because he's a non-believer who is writing a book against the Christian faith. There is probably some truth to this. If we came out of the closet this type of stuff will not take place as much. Let's try to end it here and now...in this generation.
[Thanks to the Secular Outpost for calling my attention to this].

City of Aurora in process of buying cleaned up water to support development; Alicia Acuna reports on the discovery.
AURORA, Colo. – Parts of the West have been undergoing stratospheric growth and the Front Range of Colorado is no exception.All the people moving here and new construction in areas that were once prairie and farmland, means water managers need to come up with enough water for flushing toilets, watering lawns and so on.
The region is so pressed for this precious resource, one city is spending millions to use water from an old gold mine to meet demand.
The London Mine in central Colorado had been closed for decades.For years, a fault line helped it naturally collect snowmelt near the Continental Divide.An estimated 32-plus billion gallons of water pooled in a basin under the mine.As water came into contact with the mine's minerals, it was contaminated.Runoff from the mine violated environmental standards. It was bankrupt until one company took it over and figured out a way to turn the polluted water supply into a something folks can drink.
MineWater LLC tweaked the plumbing.
The London Mine in central Colorado had been closed for decades. For years, a fault line helped it naturally collect snowmelt near the Continental Divide. An estimated 32-plus billion gallons of water pooled in a basin under the mine. As water came into contact with the mine's minerals, it was contaminated. Runoff from the mine violated environmental standards. It was bankrupt until one company took it over and figured out a way to turn the polluted water supply into a something folks can drink. (Faith Mangan/FOX NEWS)
"We're actually using the water supply opportunity, the economics of the water to fund the clean-up.And that's a big, new thing. That's very unique," says its president, Joseph Harrington.
Harrington is an expert who got the idea after being called in to help clean up after the Gold King Mine blowout in southern Colorado, which unleashed toxic sludge into waterways.
New wells were put in to function like drinking straws, pulling the water up and away, avoiding the contaminants.

The investigation into the shooting of Anthony Martinez by a Southern Ute police officer continued Thursday.
Police were called to a reported assault in the 200 block of County Road 320B in the Candelaria Heights subdivision northwest of Ignacio early Wednesday morning. The shooting took place after Martinez charged the officers with a baseball bat, according to the La Plata County Sheriffs Office.
Martinez was transported to St. Anthony Hospital in Lakewood, where his condition was improving late Thursday afternoon.
The Colorado Bureau of Investigation is leading the investigation with the assistance of the Sheriffs Office. Investigators are conducting ongoing interviews with witnesses, and charges against Martinez are pending until the investigation is complete.
The officer, whose name has not been released, was placed on administrative leave, which is standard procedure.
Anyone with information regarding the case is asked to call CBI Agent Jeff Brown at 375-1646.

Billy Sharp will replace former Sheriff Ted Sexton, who begins work as the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Office's homeland security director today. Sharp was sworn in Monday morning.
A retired law enforcement trainer who has been working as a cold case homicide investigator for the last year is the new sheriff of Tuscaloosa County.
Billy Sharp was appointed to serve the remaining two years of Ted Sexton's term. Sexton began work Monday as director of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Office.
Sharp, 79, is a life deacon at First Baptist Church, where the governor is an active member. He worked with Bentley's security detail during the 2011 campaign.
Bentley will continue to consider other candidates for the job, but Sharp could serve until the public elects a new sheriff in fall 2014.
"He is serving at the pleasure of the governor, he may well hold the position for the rest of the term," said Jeremy King, Bentley's communications director. "The governor is taking the time that's needed now to review candidates and will move forward from there."
Sharp would have to resign before Bentley could appoint someone else.
Bentley's office issued a press release announcing the appointment Monday.
"Billy Sharp has a tremendous amount of experience in the field of law enforcement," Bentley stated in the release. "Because of that, he has the respect of his colleagues, from cadets to veteran officers. Having been an investigator, field agent and eventually a volunteer instructor, Sharp's background in law enforcement will be a great asset to the people of Tuscaloosa County."
Sharp replaces Sexton, who was first elected in 1990 and announced his departure earlier this month.
He is a familiar face at the Sheriff's Office. Sharp has investigated cold cases with the Tuscaloosa County Metro Homicide Unit since his retirement from the Alabama Criminal Justice Center in February 2012. He worked as an investigator, a chief investigator and field agent during his 28 years there.
He was a volunteer instructor with the Alabama Peace Officers Standards and Training Commission for 33 years and trained just about every law enforcement officer who serves in this area. He served in the infantry and Military Police Corps of the U.S. Army during the Korean War.
Working with the state's Criminal Justice Center, Sharp was in charge of the FBI's National Crime Information Center system and state databases, traveling to other counties and helping law enforcement agents who needed access to the databases containing investigative information, such as names of fugitives and stolen property.
Sharp was popular with the law enforcement trainees and emphasized the importance of physical fitness during the courses he taught. He told The Tuscaloosa News during an interview last year that he can bench press between 240 and 260 pounds and do more than 100 push-ups.
Sharp managed a downtown hotel for many years and served as chairman of the Tuscaloosa County Civil Service Board in the 1970s and 1980s.
He and his wife, Jackie, have lived in the same home in Northport for 50 years. They have three children and six grandchildren.

Ted Siefer's City Hall: Candidate Beauchamp declines to discuss his pastBy TED SIEFER
New Hampshire Union Leader
October 13. 2013 12:20AM
In case you haven't noticed the signs and the fliers, or been graced by a personal visit from a candidate, it's campaign season in the Queen City. Of course, name recognition goes far in Manchester politics, and it's debatable how closely the average voter researches the positions and backgrounds of the people vying to be his or her representative.
For example, one would never know from the card being passed out and left on doors by Roger Beauchamp that he was a city police officer for 11 years. Beauchamp is the current Ward 12 school board member who is now running for the alderman seat.
The card notes that he is a son of the West Side, a former state representative, and that he served on the state "Homeless Coordination Commission." For a tipster - who also happens to be a supporter of Beauchamp's opponent, Keith Hirschmann - Beauchamp's career as a police officer was a notable omission.
As it turns out, Beauchamp's police career ended unceremoniously in 1997, when he was dismissed after he was arrested and charged with stalking his ex-wife not long after their divorce. Beauchamp was accused of leaving flowers at his ex-wife's home, parking his car across the street on another occasion, and driving next to her, all violations of the no-contact stipulations of the divorce.
After appealing the criminal stalking convictions, Beauchamp pleaded guilty to two lesser misdemeanor counts of harassment in 1998. Those charges were annulled in 1999 by a Hillsborough County Superior Court judge.
By the time Beauchamp successfully ran for state representative in 2008, as a Democrat, it appears the past charges were largely forgotten or at least forgiven. In 2009, he was elected to the school board.
Beauchamp said he was proud of his professional work - he's now a social worker - and his public service. "I feel I've got plenty of experiences listed, and my record stands for itself," Beauchamp said, referring to his candidate card.
As for his dismissal from the police force and the prior stalking charges, Beauchamp said he had no comment, except to say, "It was an event that occurred in the past."
Hirschmann, who was the Ward 12 alderman from 1996 to 2002, said he wasn't making an issue of Beauchamp's past. "My approach has been to put out a positive message of my own. There are plenty of people out there who would like me to discuss Roger Beauchamp and who he actually is, but that's not my job. My job is to let people know who Keith Hirschmann is."

In June 2012, the union representing Water Works employees rejected a contract extension agreed to by other city unions, which would have entailed a significant hike in their health insurance premiums, from 5 percent to 12.5 percent and then 15 percent the next year.
Now that the aldermen are poised to ratify a new contract for the union, United Steelworkers Local 8938, one has to wonder whether the workers regret that decision. The deal will instead hike their premiums to 17.5 percent, while giving them a 1 percent, non-retroactive raise - the same extended to the other unions more than a year ago.
The agreement means that Mike Roche, the longtime president of the union, will no longer be a thorn in the side of the aldermen and the mayor, as he has been for the past several months, urging the representatives of the city to sit down and talk. In the end, Roche lamented, the talks were hastily conducted by the city's go-to attorney, Matt Upton, and he said the city didn't budge from its initial offer.
"There were no negotiations," Roche said, adding, "so much for the 'me-too' clause." He was referring to the fact that the Water Works union was not offered the same deal as the other city unions in 2012.
Of course, Mayor Ted Gatsas has pointed out that since then the city has had to pay a greater share the health insurance of the Water Works employees, so naturally it would look for even greater concessions on health costs in a new contract.
The deal is not all bad. In addition to the raise, the Water Works employees will be able to accumulate personal days, two hours for each three-month quarter of full-time work.
Still, Roche felt the union got a raw deal, and he said he missed the days when the city had a union negotiator on staff and there was a genuine give and take. The beginning of the end, he said, came five years ago, when unions agreed to reopen their contracts prematurely and agree to concessions.
"That was the camel's nose under the tent," he said. "The city of Manchester may never see real negotiations again. It's hard when you're dealing with an attorney."
It's worth noting that the deal agreed to by the steelworkers union makes the offer reportedly extended to the teachers union - the largest union in the city operating without a contract - look pretty good. That deal would have given the teachers raises based on the rate of inflation, 2.17 percent this year, and the health care premiums would have been raised to 15 to 20 percent.

As was reported in these pages a few weeks ago, political action committees have different interpretations of the city charter when it comes to disclosing campaign finances around election time. The Manchester Police Patrolman's Association, in particular, has not filed reports with the city detailing its contributions to candidates, which it regularly makes.
It may come as no surprise that Alderman-At-Large Joe Kelly Levasseur has taken up the cause to get the police union to comply with the filing requirement. Levasseur, of course, has tussled with the department in one dispute after another, and the feud has been particularly heated and personal with Officer Steven Maloney, the union's president and the guy who would be responsible for filing the report.
Maloney has stated that the union's attorney has advised the group that it's not required to file as a PAC, and it has yet to file a single report with the city, unlike other city unions.
Levasseur's mind is more inquiring than others concerning the police union's campaign spending. It's safe to say the union would like nothing more than to see Levasseur's contenders for the two at-large seats, William Infantine, S. Daniel Mattingly and Dan O'Neil, the other incumbent, edge him out of office. Levasseur has pressed Maloney to release a disclosure report, and he's called on City Clerk Matt Normand to pressure the group to comply with the regulation. He said he intends to raise the issue at the next aldermen's meeting. "The people in charge of enforcing the laws won't fulfill the law requiring one to file a PAC," Levasseur said.

Physical therapists provide care to people of all ages who have functional problems resulting from back and neck injuries, arthritis, neurological disorders, and injuries related to work or sports. Physical therapists are educated to use a variety of different techniques to care for their patients including training in functional movement of joints, muscles, and other soft tissue to improve health and decrease pain. The work of physical therapists varies by type of patient. For example, a patient working to recover mobility lost after a stroke needs different care from a patient who is recovering from a sports injury. Some physical therapists specialize in one type of care, such as orthopedics or geriatrics.
All states require physical therapists to be licensed. Licensing requirements vary by state but all include passing the National Physical Therapy Examination administered by the Federation of State Boards of Physical Therapy. Several states also require a law exam and a criminal background check. After gaining work experience, some physical therapists choose to become a board-certified specialist. The American Board of Physical Therapy Specialties offers certification in nine clinical specialty areas of physical therapy, including orthopedics, sports, and geriatrics. Beyond degree major requirements, you may consider Tarleton State University auditing courses as a complementary elective.

Having said that this module is going to be bare-bones, it will not feature anything fancy. Data layer is practically non-existent, there is just one public control and a single view. However, even for this small functionality, I use the new back-end architecture. I believe this is a good approach, because many of you might want to start with this code to save some time.
If you haven't downloaded the source code yet, you can do it now. I won't explain it, as it is very well commented and strictly follows the explanations in this post.

I decided to not watch another Butler County commissioners meeting, but while changing channels I noticed that a meeting was being televised, so I watched it.
Between the televised meetings and what's reported in the Butler Eagle, it's clear that Commissioners William McCarrier and Dale Pinkerton are trying very hard to turn everyone against Commissioner Jim Eckstein.
Meanwhile, many county residents are on Eckstein's side.
If the commissioners spent their time trying to do something, instead of paying other people to do their work for them, they wouldn't have to raise our taxes.
These are difficult times. We don't need more taxes.
I wish McCarrier and Pinkerton would do their work or get out.
At the same time, I wish Eckstein good luck.

Your home and office, in fact all buildings, have inherent energy blueprints that were created when your building was first built. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a perfect Feng Shui building, because every building has a mixture of supportive and sabotaging unseen energies.The Chinese have a saying...
In Classical Feng Shui…Health & Relationships come first, because money can't buy good health and harmonious relationships. In other words, once you have avoided any negative influences on your relationships and health, then you find ways to improve your Finances. My goal is to advise you how to make the most of the energies possible in your current surroundings and empower you to make better choices of homes or offices in the future.Paperplanes-1158 Unisex Tracking Stylish Summer B014PYV172 Aqua Tracking Sandals Shoes Shoes Gray Orange b3353d5 What does Feng Shui have to do with your religious beliefs?
Some people think that Feng Shui has to do with religious beliefs... or that you must believe in Feng Shui remedies...or set your intention when installing the remedies. There's no doubt that your beliefs and intentions are powerful influences in your life. However, they have nothing to do with managing the existing Feng Shui influences in your daily life.
Classical Feng Shui is a science with the same roots as Acupuncture. Needles are used in Acupuncture to treat the energy patterns of the body to improve your health. Classical Feng Shui uses decorative objects made of the five elements (earth, metal, water, wood, and fire colors) to remedy any sabotaging influences caused by the invisible energies in your home/office. Both of these Chinese sciences have a 5,000-year history of improving lives by working with the unseen energies that have been present since the dawn of time..According to its energy blueprint your building will fall into one of five Feng Shui 'House Types'…
Buildings that are 'Bad for People' or have a 'People Lock' have constant problems with Health and/or Relationships. If you're experiencing continuous Career or Financial troubles, you're living in a 'Bad for Money' building and/or being influenced by a 'Money Lock.'
In most cases, there's a way to release the 'Lock' or cancel out the 'Bad for People and/or Money' aspect to at least make it neutral for you in that area of your life. In other words, once you have installed the appropriate elemental remedy, your building would no longer be holding you back from having...
According to Classical Feng Shui principles your home and office's entire interior is divided into a nine part grid, like a tic-tac-toe grid, and each section has two permanent energies. One influences your Health & Relationships while the other influences your Finances & Career. Each section has the potential to support or sabotage either or both aspects of your life. Therefore, as far as the energies of your home/office there isn't a Wealth Corner in Classical Feng Shui, because any of the nine areas could support or sabotage your Finances & Career.
However, from the day you were born you have a 15˚ magnetic direction that is your personal 'Prosperous' direction. If your house is oriented toward that direction or you are using a door or window in that exact

The art aspect of Classical Feng Shui relates to how you choose to implement the necessary elemental remedy as a beautiful accessory that blends with your decor. In other words, no one notices your Feng Shui remedies, except to pay you a complement on how wonderful your room looks. Remedies that don't blend with your décor create a SHA, which is Chinese for negative effect.
Feng Shui means Wind Water in Chinese and works with Air and Water currents that move Qi, which is the universal life force energy that is all around us. Therefore, all remedies must be out in the open, where the air currents in the room are able to come in contact with them. It's also important that the remedies be changeable from year to year due to the effects of the Annual energy shift.Do your building's Feng Shui energies ever change?
The inherent energies remain the same unless the house goes through MAJOR reconstruction. However, there is also an Annual energy shift in each of the nine sections. Many refer to this as the 'Visiting' energy, because every year a different Annual energy will take up residence in each of the nine sections of your home/office. The Annual energies influences on the permanent energies explain why one year will be better or worse in the same home/office.
Once every nine years the worst energy will visit your entrance and create major problems, such as: Accidents, Fires, Delays, Pain and Major Illness. If your door is painted Red or any other fire color, when that Annual energy visits your entrance... the color acts as a trigger and makes the problems worse. So, please don't paint your door a fire color, such as: Red, Purple, Burgundy, etc.When does your home/office need a Feng Shui update?
You've probably heard of...or celebrated the Chinese Lunar New Year. But did you know the Chinese have two calendars? One tracks the movement of the Moon and one the movement of the sun. Feng Shui and Four Pillar astrology are based on the Chinese SOLAR calendar. Each SOLAR year begins on the 4th or 5th of February, which is the halfway point between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox.
The Annual Feng Shui energies make their shift on the Chinese SOLAR New Year. In ancient China most people didn't have immediate access to a Feng Shui Master for Annual updates. Today, you're fortunate, because you have the option (after your initial consultation) to have an
There are four levels to a comprehensive analysis of the Feng Shui influences in the environment around and within your home or office.
Many consultants only focus on the first and second levels, because they haven't learned how to calculate the Xuan Kong energy patterns and/or your 15˚ personal directions. Only a handful of the 5% of Feng Shui professionals world-wide who can calculate all of your Personal Directions...will take the time to explain them to you.What are your 'Personal Directions'?
All of your personal directions are gender and birthday related, which is why there aren't any one-size-fits-all personal directional influences in Classical Feng Shui. Most consultants work with just your personal Trigram's Paperplanes-1158 Unisex Tracking Stylish Summer B014PYV172 Aqua Tracking Sandals Shoes Shoes Gray Orange b3353d5 45˚ directions, because they have no idea that you have even more powerful personal 15˚ Sport Sandals & Slides directions that can over-ride the influences of your basic 45˚ personal Trigram directions.
In fact, only 5% of all Feng Shui experts world-wide have the knowledge necessary to determine ALL nine of your personal 15˚ directions, including your:
This depends on your Personal Trigram which is also gender and birth date specific. Of your four basic supportive 45˚ Trigram related directions, one is your best sleeping direction. A baby will naturally turn their head toward their best sleeping direction as soon as they're old enough to move. No matter your age, you can sleep like a baby by pointing the top of your head toward a wall (not a corner) in your best sleeping direction. Or at least have a good nights rest by sleeping with your head toward one of your three alternate sleeping directions.
Unfortunately, your 'Lonely Pillow' (which keeps you sleeping alone) can also be in one of your basic 45˚ directions. As a matter of fact, my 15˚ 'Lonely Pillow' is part of the 45˚ that is my best sleeping direction. So, I'm sleeping in my second best sleeping direction.Wouldn't you like to know how to avoid the influences of your 'Consuming' and 'Lonely Pillow' directions?
In addition to advising you how to remedy the environmental influences and inherent energies of your home or office during your on-site consultation, I actually teach you how to find all of your families' (current residents of your home) or management team's Personal Directions in your current location. I'll also instruct you on how to use each person's Personal Directions diagram to locate and manage their 45˚ and 15˚ Personal Directions in any building in the world...for the rest of their life.
However, if you aren't able to have an on-site Classical Feng Shui consultation, you can at least manage the effects of your 'Personal Directions.' For the first time ever, you have the opportunity to order your own Lifetime Keys Personal Directions Self-Mastery Toolbox with all the step-by-step guidance you'll need to identify and manage all of your Personal Feng Shui directions anywhere in the world.
To learn more about your other Personal Directions… or to order your Lifetime Keys Personal Directions Self-Mastery Toolbox – visit www.FengShuiDirections.com today.By now, you're wondering, when is the best time to have a Feng Shui consultation?
Other than when you're choosing property to design a new home or office, there isn't an ideal time to have a Feng Shui consultation. Regardless of whether you own or rent your home…or if you're just moving into an existing building or have been there for years… you're being affected by the existing Feng Shui influences. Therefore, managing the Feng Shui influences of your current home/office is always advisable, whether you've just moved in or have lived/worked there for decades.

In the battle against winter, Mary Shull is a champion
During the recent storms, the 49-year-old Moberly resident traipsed through more than eight inches of snow to reach a client.
Shull has been an In-Home Services health aide at the not-for-profit North East Community Action Corporation (NECAC) for almost six years, and says the work is important as it is rewarding.
"These people mean the world to me," Shull said of the eight clients for whom she cares. "I just like doing what I do."
On Feb. 26, Shull looked out her window to see that her car was buried by snow. Even though she couldn't leave her driveway, Shull called her boss, NECAC In-Home Services Supervisor Brenda Maldonado, to see if there were clients who needed help.
Maldonado told her several other health aides had called in to say they were stuck. Aides attend to clients periodically during the week, but one Moberly client, 97-year-old Ethel Lamkin, is on the list of daily visits. Maldonado told Shull that Lamkin's regular aide couldn't make it because of the weather.
"I said 'I'll be there in a few minutes,' and took off walking," Shull said, even though Lamkin's home was almost a mile from her own. "I made it and I wasn't afraid. I'm not afraid of anything, usually."
"She called and said 'I'm here,'" Maldonado recalled. "She was as frozen as a popsicle, but she was there."
It wasn't the first time Shull has battled winter's wrath. She walked through snow two years ago to reach clients.
"She's quite special," Maldonado said. "She's a hard-working lady. If she has a client who needs service, she'll be there."
On March 1, Shull presented Lamkin with a cake she'd baked in honor of the client's 97th birthday. The mother of two and grandmother of three says she has no plans to slow down.
"God gave this to me," she said. "I love what I do."
NECAC In-Home Services offers clients the chance to receive the care they need while remaining in their homes. Trained aides do tasks such as meal preparation, personal-care services, laundry, respite care and take care of other needs.
More than 250 NECAC aides provide services to 1,200 elderly and disabled clients in 41 Missouri counties. NECAC In-Home Services is state-certified and fully insured.
NECAC is a multi-county not-for-profit social service, community health and public housing Community Action Agency. NECAC contracts with federal, state and local governments, private businesses and other not-for profit organizations to operate and administer self-sufficiency service programs for the low-income, elderly, youth, disabled and disadvantaged population. The agency's Central Administration Offices are located in Bowling Green, with NECAC Service Centers operated in each county.

Jury finds man not guilty using stand your ground law
Staff Report
Man holds car thief at bay with gun until police arrive
Judge rules Florida man did not act in self defense in shootings
NASHUA - A Hillsborough County Superior Court South jury Friday found a Franklin man innocent of criminal threatening with a deadly weapon after a two-day trial.
Craig Moses, 23, was charged in connection with an incident outside an Amherst Street nightclub in May 2012.
Moses' attorney argued Moses was innocent under the provisions of the stand your ground self-defense law passed in 2011. Earlier this month, legislators in Concord voted to overturn the law.
Moses said he and his cousin were assaulted after leaving The Junk Yard nightclub on May 5, 2012.
Although police said at the time of Moses' arrest that he had sustained minor facial injuries and that no one sustained serious injuries in the incident, Moses painted a different picture for jurors.
Moses said he was sucker-punched in the chest, sustaining two broken ribs, was punched in the nose and dazed from a head injury.
He said his cousin was punched and kicked in the head, rendering him unconscious and in a pool of blood.
Moses said a third person in the party drove up and Moses was able to get his .380 handgun, for which he has a license.
In an effort to create space around his cousin, he displayed the gun and shouted: "Back the ... up!"
One of the men Moses warned away turned out to be a club bouncer, Steve Cormier.
Moses was arrested and charged with criminal threatening with a deadly weapon and was later indicted by a Hillsborough County South grand jury.
A conviction under the felony threatening charge carries a sentence of three-and-a-half to seven years in the New Hampshire State Prison.

Bad things happen in life and it's perfectly normal to feel grief and miserable as a result. With depression the grief and misery tends to stick around for far longer than it normally would. In time you realize it's about the only feeling you're familiar with and you've felt it for weeks, months or even a number of years.
You've tried so many times, nothing seems to bring joy and you can't escape the cloud that follows. Depression can feel inescapable. More severe types of depression cause underlying changes in the neurochemistry of our brain. The most effective treatments take time and require changes to our thought patterns, addressing the underlying neurochemistry problems with drugs and looking at how our social lives and interactions can help. Depression is something many face multiple times throughout life. Some types of depression are seasonal and major events can also trigger a relapse. A 2008 study by Spanish Psychologist Luis Pintor and Cristobal Gasto found that 15% of unipolar major depression sufferers experienced a relapse. There is hope and you won't always feel this way, treatments are becoming more effective and research is shedding new light on the underlying causes.
During a major depressive episode your brain undergoes something called ' psychomotor retardation '. It slows down our thought processes, makes routine everyday things incredibly draining, causes procrastination and many other symptoms. It's not your fault, it's part of an illness which requires treatment.
Depending upon the type of depression you may be suffering you'll either feel tired and drained all the time or find yourself extremely energetic and awake at all hours.
One of the symptoms of depression is difficulty in finding energy for day to day life. It can be hard mustering the energy to get out of bed and get dressed, things you did automatically before your depression. This is not a problem of self discipline or simply needing to muscle yourself into duty, it's due to underlying chemical changes in the brain. Beginning treatment itself may seem like an arduous task but making a decision to seek help is an excellent first step.
In every part of the world, in all religions and at all stages of life depression is a relatively common occurrence. According to the world health organization it affects more than 350 million people annually.
According to the University of Washington 80% of people undertaking treatment for clinical depression improve their lives. There are many types of treatments available for varying types of depression.
Depression is a complex but well researched illness. Both your chances and speed of recovery are greatly improved when you undertake treatment.
Like diabetes depression causes underlying changes in our bodies and is not something you can simply 'snap out of'. The most effective treatments focus on addressing problems with our thought patterns, such as with cognitive behaviour therapy and the underlying physiological problems with medication, diet and exercise.
A person with a disability may require special accommodations in order to have equal access to the programs offered by the Housing Authority of the County of Salt Lake (HACSL). The types of reasonable accommodations the Housing Authority of the County of Salt Lake (HACSL) can provide include changes, exceptions, or adjustments to a rule, policy, practice, or service. Federal regulations stipulate that requests for accommodations will be considered reasonable if they do not create an "undue financial and administrative burden" for the agency, or result in a "fundamental alteration" in the nature of the program or service offered. A fundamental alteration is a modification that alters the essential nature of a provider's operations. It is the HACSL policy to provide a reasonable accommodation in housing for applicants, public housing residents, supportive housing clients and Section 8 clients with disabilities who are otherwise qualified for HACSL services. This policy is furtherance of HACSL's goal to provide and develop quality affordable housing opportunities for people regardless of disability and in compliance with applicable federal, state and local law. A person with a disability is one who has:
If you have a disability and require an alternate form of communication including but not limited to, sign-language interpreter or assistance completing forms, you may make a request at any time during the application process or after admission.

Authorities ask for help locating missing Charlestown womanBy DOUG ALDEN
New Hampshire Union Leader
June 28. 2013 5:11PM
CHARLESTOWN - New Hampshire authorities are calling the disappearance of a Charlestown woman suspicious and asking for public help in finding her.
The New Hampshire Attorney General's office says Kelly Robarge was last heard from Thursday morning. Relatives have been unable to reach her and called police Thursday afternoon.
Attorney General Joseph Foster said investigators believe the 42-year-old woman likely suffered severe physical harm and possibly death.
"What we've learned over last 24-36 hours has given us concern for Kelly's welfare and concern whether she's seriously injured or perhaps even dead," said Susan Morrell, senior assistant attorney general. "We are reaching out the public and hoping someone can assist us with information regarding her disappearance and current whereabouts."
Morrell would not say what evidence led authorities to fear for Robarge's safety.
New Hampshire State Police, Sullivan County sheriff's office, state Fish and Game and Vermont State Police are assisting in investigation and search.
