Scripture: Acts 16:6 NIV Paul and his companions traveled throughout the region of Phrygia and Galatia, having been kept by the Holy Spirit from preaching the word in the province of Asia.
7 When they came to the border of Mysia, they tried to enter Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus would not allow them to.
Observation: Paul had been clearly directed by the Holy Spirit to travel and plant churches in various cities in the Roman Empire. (Acts 13:2-4) But when it came to the province of Asia, the "green light" turned in to a "red light." The "go" became "stop."
Application: If I claim Jesus as my Lord, then the "red" lights have to be as important to me as the "green" lights. As my Lord, He has the right to tell me when to go and when to stop. He has the right to tell me what to do AND what not to do. To ignore the green light is to miss opportunities. To ignore the red lights is to invite trouble.
Prayer: Lord, thank you for your green and red lights. Thank you for your yellow light directing me to proceed with caution and to be prepared to stop. Holy Spirit, you are my traffic signal. Amen
Pastor Leon
Making friends for time and eternity!

BRADY TWP — A fire at Moraine Camplands gutted seven trailers Saturday afternoon as wind-swept flames ignited them one by one to set off a huge blaze.
Ten fire departments were called to put out the blaze that also destroyed a sport utility vehicle, two golf carts and several storage sheds, and damaged one additional trailer.
No one was injured. The camper trailers were unoccupied at the time, authorities said.
The state police fire marshal's office is investigating but a cause of the blaze was not immediately known.
An official damage estimate was not available but the loss would likely top $150,000, said Rick Black, assistant chief for the Unionville Volunteer Fire Department.
The fire at the campground on Staff Road, about 1˝ miles west of Route 8, was reported shortly after 4:30 p.m.
Moraine Camplands maintenance manager John Bluedorn said the blaze began in one trailer and quickly caught hold of the others.
"It started in the one and just spread," Bluedorn said. "The wind didn't help."
Most of the more than 800 campers who own trailers and lease lots at the site have not yet returned for the season.
Bob Villella of Pittsburgh, a member of the campground association's board of directors, was at his trailer just above a section of the facility known as "Groundhog County," where the fire broke out.
"I came out of my trailer to get something out of my truck and saw smoke," Villella said.
Villella ran a short way from his trailer to get a better look at what was on fire.
He and another camper rushed to help.
"We grabbed garden hoses and tried doing what we could," he said. Some of the others that were nearby followed suit.
"The other campers on site pitched in," Bluedorn said. "If not for all the people running around hosing things down, it would have been a lot worse."
Gusty winds apparently hastened the spread of the blaze by blowing leaves on fire under the trailers.
The Unionville VFD was first to arrive. Then Prospect. Then Slippery Rock. The companies kept coming. In all, 55 firefighters helped battle the blaze.
There are no hydrants at the camp so tankers had to haul water from a large fishing pond several hundred yards away.
Eventually, the blaze was under control.

The Kingston powerlifting team is building momentum and confidence after its first meet win in several years.
On Friday, the Redskins took first place among 17 teams at the Antlers Blue and Gold Classic powerlifting meet. Led by individual champions Joseph Moreno at 145 pounds and Jaime Furister at 123, the Redskins scored 72 team points to put themselves ahead of Heavener's 69 points and Broken Bow's 67.
Head coach John Caraway said the excitement among team members continues to build after solid outings in Kingston's first two meets.
"We're feeling pretty good about it — the kids are excited," Caraway said. "I don't know when was the last time Kingston won a powerlifting meet, but I know it's been a while. These kids are working hard and they're buying into what we're trying to do."
Moreno turned in his best performance to date, according to Caraway. Moreno won the 145-pound class with 850 total pounds, including wins in the squat and bench.

Rated 5 out of 5 by SuzieQ from Great top This looks a lot brighter in person, close to neon orange. Great quality and fits big so I would recommend ordering 1 size down.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bebebliss from Scoop tank in yellow is gorgeous ! The yellow scoop tank is vibrant and classy, and I like the keyhole slit design. I bought the medium which seems to run slightly small yet is very open and allows for good movement. This tank works well for the gym or for causal outings, versatile and goes well with other bottoms, especially with the ruched yellow/steel grey pants.

Rated 5 out of 5 by SewerGal from Vibrant orange I purchased the orange clown fish colour (love that name), and it is even more vibrant in person then displayed here. A neon orange that has just the right amount of brightness. I usually take a size medium in all Bebe tops, but I found this a little tight in the chest (I'm 36D). I went with the large, it is a little loose, but I'd rather have loose than tight. It is comfortable, and cute, with the new material that I think Bebe finally got right for their sports line.
Date published: 2013-06-04
Rated 5 out of 5 by BebeDiva from Vibrant and comfortable This top wears more like a sports bra, so note it is not dressy. It does look like it is in the pic but this is definitely a combo for shorts, casual wear. That said, the top is much more of a vibrant yellow than pictured. Bright, blinding comes to mind LOL. So make sure you are ready for that! I am well endowed and the medium fit me perfect. Looks like these are sold out in my size now! It does say NEON yellow and it is. Works perfect with the new splash of color flowered shorts for this season, and that is what I will wear it with. It is extremely comfortable and I am going to purchase the pink if it is available.
Date published: 2013-04-26
Rated 4 out of 5 by Tamrah from cute top! very cute, luv the design and fits perfectly. gave it 4 instead of 5 b/c i wish the built in sports bra was more supportive

Eagles coach Andy Reid said Monday that there is not a scenario in which he would resign as head coach.
"I'm standing in front of the team and saying these are the things we need to do, one of which is we need to battle," Reid said. "I think [resigning] would be a cop out. That's not how I see things. That's now how I'm wired. I'm not going to tell them one thing and do the other."
At 3-7 and with a six-game losing streak, Reid acknowledged that the Eagles "are letting the fans down, letting the city down." He said he knows how the fans and city feel and would not make excuses for the record. He pointed to turnovers on offense and big plays on defense as a reason for the team's continued losing ways.
"You control what you can control," Reid said. "That's getting better as a football team. That's what my emphasis is. Become a better coach, make sure I'm putting my guys in the right position to make plays, make sure my staff is doing the right things there. That's where all my emphasis is and I don't put my emphasis past that."
Reid also relayed the disappointment level from team owner Jeffrey Lurie, who has not spoken publicly about Reid's status since the preseason.
"He's a competitive guy. Nobody wants to win more than Jeffrey," Reid said. "He's disappointed. I'll tell you that. Rightly so. He feels the same way we do, that we're letting people down in this city."

Dorman's Will Thomas and Christian Maroni and Gaffney's Zach Clary and Thomas Mabry earn state wrestling championships.
ANDERSON — Will Thomas didn't want to go out on a bad note in his final high school wrestling match.
The Dorman senior entered Saturday's South Carolina High School League individual state final already having won county and upper state titles, so anything less than a state championship would not do.
Thomas got his wish, capturing his second straight 4A state championship with a 5-1 decision against Summerville's Chad Wood in the 152-pound weight class at the Civic Center of Anderson. He captured the title in the 145-pound class last year.
Thomas finished the season 48-3 overall and became the first Dorman wrestler to win two state championships.
"It feels amazing," Thomas said. "It makes everything I ever worked for and everything I ever dreamed of really look that much better because I was able to top it off with another one. I was beyond dialed in. I thought about this all week. I didn't care about any other match. I didn't care about anything else. I was going to blow through anybody that got in my way and make sure I had him in the finals because I was out for blood."
Thomas was one of four area wrestlers to capture 4A state championships. Gaffney's duo of Zach Clary and Thomas Mabry, as well as Dorman's Christian Maroni also took home titles.
Clary and Mabry not only won state titles, but both finished the season undefeated. Clary capped off a 42-0 year with an 8-4 decision against Summerville's James Sass in the 106-pound class. The freshman said winning the championship was the perfect way to end the season.
"I've been wrestling pretty much my whole life and working every day thinking about how to get better and contribute more to the sport that I love," Clary said. "It's exhilarating. I put in the work every day. I wasn't going to accept anything lower than a state championship. I also wanted (Thomas) to win as much as I wanted to win."
Mabry earned a 10-6 decision against Beaufort's Trey Arant in the 160-pound class. The junior finished the season 46-0.
"It really hasn't sunk in yet, but in the morning or a few hours from now I think it will," Mabry said. "It's unbelievable really. We have worked hard all year for it. I'll start working hard tomorrow for state next year."
Maroni took the 170-pound class with a 4-3 decision against Hillcrest's Ellison Sanders. The junior said topping the future Citadel Bulldog enhances his confidence for next season.
"It feels great," Maroni said. "It's a culmination of my entire life wrestling. It feels good to go out there the underdog and come out on top. That's the first time I've ever beaten him. He's beat me three or four times. To come out here and do it when it really matters means a lot."
Dorman's Hector Contreras and Boiling Springs' Spencer Thomas placed third in the 120- and 138-pound classes. Byrnes' Cody Simpson also finished third in the 152-pound class, while teammate Charlie Conner was fourth in the 145-pound class.
Chapman's David Korneychuk and Michael Scott took third in the 152- and 170-pound classes in 3A competition. The Panthers' Alex LeCroy placed fourth in the 195-pound class.
Union County's Ethan Pendleton finished third in the 106-pound class, while Broome's Tucker Taylor was fourth at 170 pounds.
Landrum's Josh Jones was edged in a 5-4 decision by Central's Daquan Chappell in the 113-pound class of the 2A/1A final. The Cardinals' Damion Cantrell was third in the 160-pound class.
Chesnee's Kyle Chrzanowski placed fourth in the 120-pound class.

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street: Special Edition (US - DVD R1)
Gabe loves Ms. Lovett's new meat pies, and Ms. Lovett's use of eye-shadow...
After years spent in prison for crimes he did not commit, Benjamin Barker returns to London under the alias of Sweeney Todd (Johnny Depp). Todd arrives to find his wife dead and daughter held captive by the evil Judge (Alan Rickman) that sent him up the river in the first place. Todd opens a barbershop above Mrs. Lovett's (Helena Bonham Carter) Meat Pie Shop, and begins to plot his murderous revenge. With the help of Mrs. Lovett, who uses the bodies of newly slashed victims in her vile pies, Todd takes aim at the Judge, who means to marry his adopted daughter.
Tim Burton has spent the last decade plus churning out entertaining but ultimately shallow and disappointing features. Following the success his two Batman films major studios got the silly idea in their heads that Burton was some kind of action director, and after the implosion of his epic Superman project Mr. Pale Face was given the reigns to a misbegotten Planet of the Apes remake. Though the film wasn't quite as bad as some would have you believe (it did look pretty sharp), its negative reception appeared to some as a sizable nail in the director's tomb. Big Fish represented a different direction for the impossibly gothic director, but the film lacks emotional weight, and depends too fiercely on a typically warm performance from actor Ewan McGregor. Burton's 2005 double shot, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and The Corpse Bride, were a massive disappointment. Both films were surprisingly obnoxious and bland mimicry of the director's previous achievements.
I have a large measure of affection for the Hammer House of Horror take on the Sleepy Hallow legend that Burton tackled in 1999, even though I readily recognize that the film doesn't hold the skewed emotional resonance of Edward Scissorhands or Ed Wood, nor the original visual impact of Beetlejuice. Burton's return to quirky-Goth and musicals with Sweeny Todd wasn't something that sounded particularly challenging for the director on paper, especially considering it would be an adaptation of an already successful stage play (not to mention the fact that the film only came together after another Burton production fell apart).
What Burton achieves with Sweeney Todd is very similar to what he achieved with Sleepy Hallow—an energetic homage to Hammer Horror, Mario Bava, and Roger Corman filmed with few tones beyond black, white and red. Burton doesn't take the effect to the extremes he did on Sleepy Hallow, and allows himself to take on more modern film effects, but he maintains the staged feel. Burton also visually quotes himself throughout the movie, from the attic and basement sets of Edward Scissorhands and Sleepy Hallow) to the costumes and hairstyles of Batman Returns, and touches of Beetlejuice-ian mirth. Critically this type of super-narcissistic behaviour is often suspect, and unintentionally funny (see: Brian DePalma and Dario Argento), but the fact that the material is almost jokingly pre-made for Burton's sensibilities creates a shaky balance.
Sweeney Todd succeeds on more on an emotional level then any Tim Burton film since Ed Wood (folks often forget Martin Landau won a richly deserved Oscar for his work as an aging Bela Lugosi), without sacrificing too much of the dark humour that makes the director's best films so memorable. The mix of humour, horror and melodrama is a hard sell, and until I saw the movie I really wasn't sure that Burton was the man for this job.
Despite Burton's reputation for dark motion pictures, Sweeney Todd and Sleepy Hallow[i] are Buton's only particularly bloody films. The violence here is somewhat cartoony in the way [i]Hollow's was, and the blood itself is too bright to be taken too seriously, but the fetishistic way in which Depp welds his knives and the sentiment behind the violence makes Sweeny Todd the darkest film in Burton's career. The various unsubtle jabs at political subtext (eat the rich) were part of the original myth, but any political subtext in a Tim Burton film (beyond the dumpy heavy handedness of Planet of the Apes) is a cause for minor celebration.
It's just about impossible act subtly while singing, but this highly adept cast manages several moments of genuine drama amongst the booming harmonics and histrionics. The weak link is Jamie Campbell Bower, though I blame the character's flatness more on the writing then on Bower's pretty-face portrayal. Calling the film a 'musical' is almost a misnomer—its' practically a full-on opera, meaning that folks unhappy with the idea of watching a singing murderer will probably remain unhappy throughout the entire runtime. There are very few plot points or character emotions expressed without song, and the few that aren't are sort of jarring.
The news of Paramount's dumping of the HD DVD format was a bummer. I was waiting for two HD releases, and now I'll have to wait for an as yet unmentioned Blu-ray release for both of them. One of those films was pretty obviously Sweeney Todd. Sweeney Todd is, like all Tim Burton's films, a visually sumptuous piece, and the sharp, almost hand-drawn look really lends itself to high definition.
The majority of the film is dark and almost colourless, and this standard definition disc does a fine job of reproducing the deep blacks and detailed, high contrast whites. The film's more colourful scenes (mostly flashbacks and dream sequences) are more hit and miss. Reds look fabulous during the brighter scenes, but displays quite a bit of noise during the deep dark sequences of the finale. Ms. Lovett's fantasy is rather spectacular and clean, but some of the greens and ambers are grainy and lose definition.
It's a musical, the music better sound good. Thankfully this Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack is lush and full of life. The delicate balance between music and sound effects is spot on, the LFE booms without unnecessary vibration, and every note in the amateur singers' spectrum is equally represented. Sweeney Todd is one of only two films in Tim Burton's catalogue that wasn't scored by Danny Elfman (the other is Ed Wood). No one can blame Elfman for not wanting to transcribe someone else's successful score though, and Stephen Sondheim's additions sound rather Elfman-esque anyway. The soundtrack really shines in the rear channels, which are actually augmented with their own instruments in parts, rather then the usual echo track.
Disc one is adorned with a single featurette called 'Burton + Depp + Cater = Todd', which also happens to be the only extra on the single disc collection. This is a sort of meaty and not too placating behind the scenes bit that should satisfy those not thoroughly interested in extra features. More or less everything here can be found in greater detail elsewhere on disc two, so those more interested in the behind the scenes process and the historical history of Sweeney Todd might want to skip this twenty-six minute piece all together in favour of disc two.
The disc two extras begin with a 2007 press conference featuring Burton and all the major actors. In the absence of a commentary track this interview segment gives us a decent glimpse into the deeper working process (besides, anyone that's ever heard a Burton commentary track will know that we aren't really missing anything). The twenty-minute feature is very amusing and far more informative than the usually press conference.
'Sweeney is Alive' is a twenty-minute look at the Sweeney myth and its various incarnations. The general consensus seems to be that there was no real Sweeney Todd in London's history, and that the story is an amalgamation of various factual killers and old wives tales. The story's popularity spiked when it was adapted into a 'Penny Dreadful' novella during the reign of real serial killer Jack the Ripper. The play version and an early film version are also covered here, though various B-horror versions (like Andy Milligan's Bloodthirsty Butchers) are not mentioned. There is a feature length documentary in here somewhere.
'Musical Mayhem' is a more specific look at Stephen Sondheim's stage musical from which Burton's film was adapted. Sondheim (the man behind West Side Story, by the way) himself is interviewed, along with various other members of the original and theatrical productions. This is a good place to pause and acknowledge the spectacular originality of a Grand Guignol horror musical. The twelve minute featurette chronicles the musical's history, Burton's history, and possibly most importantly, the adaptation process. I have basically zero knowledge of the original Tony winning stage version of the killer barber tale, but internet research tells us that there was a lot of adaptation required to cram three plus hours of musical into two hours of movie. From what I'm able to glean the biggest sacrifice was the relationship between Todd's daughter and her would-be suitor, which I see as a good thing. Even as Burton and screenwriter John Logan leave it there's a little too much of these rather bland characters.
'Sweeney's London' is a look at the history of London during the start of the Sweeny Todd legend. Though Burton's film does not take place in this particularly horrifying chapter in London's history (actually it doesn't take place in any real timeframe), the inclusion of this featurette is a welcome one. The narrator mixes the 'facts' of the fictional Todd's life and the facts of life on the bloody and polluted streets of early 19th century, and period appropriate art and maps are mixed with expert commentaries. I don't see the purpose of separating this 16-minute featurette from 'Sweeney is Alive', but it's still a nice dash of history lesson.
'The Making of Sweeney Todd' starts as a total fluff piece, filled out with the usual 'all audience' friendly clips, and back patting interviews ("He's amazing", "She's amazing", etc.). The graphicness of the violence isn't the only thing avoided, the musical aspects are slighted a bit, just as they were in the film's initial trailers. This bit likely played on HBO or something between full frame movies, and includes several bits from the longer and better featurettes.
'Grand Guignol: A Theatrical Tradition' is a perfectly pleasant featurette all about the uber-graphic and ever popular play style that Burton's film and Sondheim's stage musical reference regularly. The piece briefly covers the basic history of the violent and often amoral stage productions, Sweeney Todd's place within the tradition, and features a few minutes of recent Grand Guignol revivals (pretty cheesy). Like the 'Sweeney is Alive' featurette, this one feels like a mere taste of a bigger and better documentary, only running about nineteen minutes.
'Designs for a Demon Barber' is a closer look at Dante Ferretti and Francesca Lo Schiavo's Academy Award winning art design, the set design, and Colleen Atwood's Academy Award nominated costume design. The featurette is told with interviews (subtitled to cover the accents), on-set footage, film footage and production artwork. There is some discussion of inspiration, but surprisingly no talk of Burton and company's self-quotation. Bits of this nine-minute featurette can be seen in 'The Making of Sweeney Todd'.
'A Bloody Business' covers the film's many juicy gore effects. The behind the scenes footage, narrated by the effects supervisor, is pretty thorough for another nine-minute runtime, covering the whole throat chopping process. The sheer volume of fake blood and set plastic wrap (including the camera) is very amusing. This is a probably a good place to mention that my research tells me that Sweeney Todd was slightly cut for its American release. I'm not sure on what specifically was cut, but I know this DVD is not the 'unrated' version, which may be a reason to wait for the eventual Blu-ray release.
'Moviefone Unscripted' is another fluff piece made to sell the film. Burton and Depp sort of interview each other while taking E-Mail questions from Moviefone web surfers. The participants are both charming as all hell, so what could've been a totally lame bit is only kind of awkward. It's eleven minutes.
'The Razor's Refrain' is a series of stills from the film set to pieces of each of the film's major songs, running 8:30. This is followed by a standard flip-through gallery of behind the scenes photos and design concepts. Everything ties up with the original theatrical trailer.
Sweeney Todd is not Tim Burton's greatest masterpiece, but it is his most solid film in a decade. The film is entirely entertaining, fully engrossing, and it tickles the senses without calling ridiculous amounts of attention to itself. It's also the kind of film that will likely grow on even lukewarm viewers over time. This two disc special edition features some great extras, but just about every one of them feels somewhat truncated. I have a slight inkling that a more fully packed Blu-ray disc might be on the unseen horizon, but make no promises.

The Montezuma County commissioners sparred with public lands officials on Tuesday over issues of water rights, grazing permits and federal acquisitions of private property.
At issue were seven parcels - totalling 4,537 acres - in Yellow Jacket Canyon, owned for decades by the Wallace family. They were sold at auction in 2009 and scooped up for $3.3 million by the Bureau of Land Management. The Wallace properties had been inholdings, encircled by public land - specifically, by Canyon of the Ancients National Monument.
With the purchase, the BLM acquired formal title to the water rights attached to two of the parcels. Original rights established by Wesley Wallace in 2005 authorized up to 5.25 cubic feet per second from Yellow Jacket Creek for irrigation, domestic use, livestock or fire suppression, although they were never exercised and remain "conditional."
Roy Smith, a BLM water rights specialist, said he didn't expect the agency's needs to go much beyond one acre foot annually because it has no intention to build a subdivision or irrigate crop fields.
More realistic uses, he added, could be eradicating invasive weeds and reseeding with native plants, pumping water to cattle troughs away from the stream and creating a small reservoir for reactive fire suppression.
This particular water right is superseded by older rights; as such the properties would have lower priority during dry years. However, commissioner Steve Chappell, who lives nearby, said because Yellow Jacket Creek is fed mostly by irrigation return water, it isn't as dependent on snowmelt runoff.
"It hasn't been dry (during growing season) in 68 years," he said. "As long as McPhee and MVI exist, water will be there."
The conversation ran the gamut from esoteric details of water rights law to broader disgruntlement over the large footprint of federal lands in Montezuma County.
James Dietrich, the county's community services director, said about 70 percent of Montezuma County is either public or owned by the Ute Mountain Ute tribe. The figure is dated - it comes from the comprehensive plan drafted in 1996 - but Dietrich said it is still useful as a point of reference. If anything, public land acreage has crept upward since.
Commissioner Keenan Ertel grew especially agitated over this point. Gesturing on a map, he referenced what he calls the "banana" - a diagonal, northwest-to-southeast swath of private land surrounded on each side by the BLM/Canyon of the Ancients, U.S. Forest Service, Mesa Verde National Park and Ute Mountain Ute reservation.
"It's all we've got left," he said.
As public lands are not taxable, the commissioners voiced concerns about lost revenue.
County Assessor Mark Vanderpool said the Wallace holdings, classified as dry grazing land, were most likely taxed at 17 cents per acre, equaling $770 per year altogether.
"Any lost tax revenue, when property goes from taxable to exempt status, is minimal. Quite frankly it is probably offset by (payment in lieu of tax) money. So I see it a bit differently (than the commissioners)," he said Wednesday.
Ertel and concerned citizen Bud Garner - who Ertel defeated in the Republican primary last year - both raised questions of constitutionality.
Federal agencies, they argued, are required to obtain consent from state legislatures before acquiring any land.
This was news to Smith, who said that over a 20-year career, he'd never seen the BLM, or any other agency, approach the State Assembly for such permission.
"I'd like to see it," Ertel replied. "As a county commissioner I don't like the federal government expanding its presence in Montezuma County and taking private property off the tax roles."
Chappell sought to bring the conversation back to the narrower issue at hand. Before it decides how to use the newly acquired water rights, the BLM needs to complete a land health assessment.
"The team is multidisciplinary, with a soil science expert, an ecologist, a rangeland conservationist, a wildlife biologist'. They examine the condition of the vegetation, soil and water sources. Do weeds need to be treated? Are there places with excessive erosion," Smith said. "Then they make a determination of how many head of livestock the piece of land can support without degrading it."
But the personnel and funding available to complete the study aren't immediately available, said Marietta Eaton, Anasazi Heritage Center/BLM Canyon of the Ancients manager.
The commissioners questioned how the BLM could afford to purchase the land in the first place but not round up the comparative chump change needed for an assessment.
Eaton explained that the money comes from different sources. Plus, she said, the local BLM office has several vacant staff positions right now.
Chappell said it should be straightforward to request the needed experts from other Forest Service or BLM offices.
"It bites you when they won't get in gear and get it done," he said Wednesday.
Chappell voiced concern about preserving the ranching heritage of Montezuma County. He was suspicious that the BLM will not return grazing privileges to the former Wallace tract after completion of the assessment. He feared that by the time an assessment is completed, the younger ranchers who might have interest in grazing that parcel may have given up and moved on.
"If you're not careful, you slowly lose your ranchers and it changes the face of your community. I happen to like seeing cowboys driving down the road on the way to summer pastures," he said.
Smith and Eaton said the BLM is not opposed to livestock grazing at all. There are 23 existing grazing allotments within Canyon of the Ancients boundaries, Eaton added, and only two are vacant.
The BLM is supposed to go before the Colorado Judicial Branch's water court in Durango in the next few weeks to extend the conditional water rights for another six years, which Smith said is standard procedure.
Ertel wants the BLM to relinquish the conditional rights and reapply once they've completed the assessment and can say precisely how much water is needed, and for what purposes.
Smith said he would try to reduce their concerns by issuing a new explanatory document with more specific language, but that promising future cattle grazing rights at this stage would be premature.

A former stripper with whom Asim Amran had an extramarital affair testified yesterday that Mr. Amran told her he killed his wife and pointed out where he said he disposed of her remains.
Rukhsara Saffa told the jury in Mr.Amran�s Worcester Superior Court murder trial that she entered into a relationship with Mr.Amran after meeting him in the fall of 2008 at the Lamplighter II strip club, where she worked under the stage name �Fantasy.�
She said she was going through a divorce at the time and Mr.Amran told her he was separated from his wife, Faiza Malik, and was planning to divorce her.
Mr. Amran, 32, formerly of 355 Summer St., Fitchburg, is on trial on a charge of first-degree murder in what authorities said was the morphine poisoning death of Ms. Malik. Her severely decomposed body was found Aug. 20, 2009, in a suitcase near Depot Road in Oxford, off Interstate 395. Police believe she was killed on or about Dec. 31, 2008.
Ms. Saffa, who has a child, said she and Mr. Amran eventually became engaged. On Dec. 31, 2008, she testified, she told Mr. Amran he would have to choose between her and his wife.
Hours later, Mr. Amran showed up at her Worcester apartment with his 3-year-old son and told her, �That�s your son. You have two kids now,� according to Ms. Saffa. She said he later told her his wife had gone to Virginia to stay with an aunt.
On Aug. 16, after she had twice been questioned by state police, Ms. Saffa said, Mr. Amran drove her to Oxford, pointed out where his wife�s body was and admitted he had killed her. She said she turned that information over to police, despite Mr. Amran�s warning that he would kill her and her family if she told anyone.
Under cross-examination by Mr. Amran�s lawyer, Kevin J. Reddington, Ms. Saffa denied that Mr. Amran called her on Dec. 31, 2008, and told her he had returned home and found his wife dead. She also denied telling Mr. Amran to take her car to dispose of the body.
In his opening statement in the case, Mr. Reddington said he expected the evidence to show that Ms. Malik, a native of Pakistan, was depressed over the deterioration of her arranged marriage to Mr. Amran and took her own life.

NIGEL Adkins was not the man to take Saints to the next level.
That is the view of Saints fan Grant Goddard who has written to the Daily Echo in the wake of Adkins' sensational sacking.
Goddard writes: "I do not claim to speak for any other Saints fans but am writing this because I am fed up of current media portrayal of how the club is being run. I am not the only one who feels this way.
Firstly can I say, I was and am still a massive fan of Nigel Adkins, from the moment he was first linked with the job, and saw interviews of how he spoke about our interest, I was sold that he was the man to take us back to the Premiership.
Do I think Nigel should have been sacked? No.
Do I think he was the right man to take us onto the next level? Unfortunately no. As a club we want to attract big names to play for us, and as we don't have the club history of a Liverpool then we need to rely more heavily on the manager to help attract a better level of player. Nigel, while I think the world of him, at this time is not that man.
The sorts of players we have been linked with at times have been two very different areas. Some have been players who we are battling the likes of top 6 teams for, and others are very good Championship players who we are competing with Norwich or Villa for.
And I mean no disrespect to those teams, but I feel our club is trying to aim high than that. I would have liked Nigel to have stayed with us until the summer when the season could have been assessed and a statement of intent to step up a level could have been made by Nicola Cortese in a more media friendly way. However, this is not how football works.
I believe this is a decision that was made months ago, maybe caused by our lack of ability to sign some of the desired targets in the summer, who knows.
While in many ways it does feel sneaky that things have been going on in the background, is this not the best possible change over? Would weeks of "who will be the new manager?" have helped our campaign?
For the people who question Nicola Cortese sacking a manager after a 4-0 win and now a 2-2 draw at Chelsea, would you rather a chairman who panic sacks a manager after a 6-1 defeat to Arsenal?
Plus when you have decided on your new manager, who is to say he will be available when its "media friendly" convenient to sack your current one?
Rumours of a meeting with NC and the first team in the summer have now come out where he stated many were not good enough for the Premiership. You could argue that we have replaced at least 5 or 6 of the regular starting line of last year with better players (GK, LB,RB, a CB, RW?, CF) and still we are only just above the bottom 3.
Where do we honestly believe we would have been without them? And where are the fans "up in arms" for players like Richardson who was excellent for us for two seasons and now barely gets a sniff? NC has had to make a lot of tough decisions over his time with the club, and I for one have yet to see anything that has played out to be a bad move in time.
As the Echo stated in an article over the last few days, Pochettino "will be judged on results & Cortese could end up being praised for it if it goes right". The end of this season and next is where this decision should be judged, but I hope NC is proven to have made a correct, bold call."

Dr. Michele Warmund, MU fruit tree researcher, reminds us that we should treat our fruit trees for scale before the growing season. Control must be made before bud swell with an application of superior soil. In early springs, this spray is often missed as trees will start growing earlier than expected.
According to her, apricot, cherry, peach and plum are generally the first fruit trees to begin growth. Then these are followed by apple and pear. Dormant oils should be applied when temperatures are above 40 degrees F. and its primary purpose is to smother overwintering mite eggs and young scale crawler.
A great resource for those who care for fruit trees is Extension guide 6010, Fruit Spray Schedules for the Homeowner. A copy can be obtained at your Livingston County Extension office in Chillicothe and for more information, contact the Extension office at 660-646-0811.

Medical marijuana technically became legal in Illinois when the calendar flipped to January, but patients won't be able to access the drug for many months.
That's about how long it will take state officials to write the rules related to its growth and sale. And city officials and doctors are being cautious about how they proceed until those rules are released.
The Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Act, signed Aug. 1 by Gov. Pat Quinn, allows for 22 centers where medical marijuana will be cultivated and 60 dispensaries where it will be sold.
Chicago and some suburbs have addressed this issue in case the businesses open within their city limits, amending zoning rules about where they can be and adding requirements for parking.
The Illinois Department of Public Health, Department of Financial and Professional Regulation and Department of Agriculture are drafting the final rules. The groups hope to present the rules to the Joint Commission on Administrative Rules within 120 days of the Jan. 1 effective date, IDPH spokeswoman Melaney Arnold said.
Arnold said the JCAR process - releasing first and second notices, having a 45-day public comment period, etc. - takes a minimum of 90 days, so license applications may not be available until fall. Once the commission approves and adopts the rules, the application process begins.
So state officials are asking the public to be patient. They's also warning residents that it's still illegal to grow, sell or possess medical marijuana in Illinois.
"The day the rules pass doesn't mean a person can get medical cannabis that day," Arnold said. "It will still be a while."
Nearly 40 medical conditions - including cancer, HIV/AIDS and multiple sclerosis - would qualify patients for the drug's use. Eligible patients can buy up to 2.5 ounces every 14 days.
Mayor Jim Gitz said the Freeport City Council hasn't discussed medical marijuana, but conversations have started at the staff level. He also said the group is waiting for more direction from the state.
"We want to know what the rules of the road are going to be," he said. "It's hard to make decisions on zoning and other regulations until we know what the final scheme looks like."
City officials in Rockford and Belvidere echoed Gitz's comments.
Gitz said he hasn't been approached by anyone looking to open a cultivation center or dispensary in Freeport. But he's a fan of being proactive rather than reactive with such a hot-button issue, although he said medical marijuana regulation doesn't top the city's priority list.
"I've been in public life long enough to know these issues will inevitably come our way," Gitz said. "It's incumbent upon on us to treat this as another issue we have to address."
Experts have said Illinois' law is one of the strictest in the nation. Patients can't grow their own and they must have established relationships with licensed physicians to access the drug.
Rockford Health System plans to do internal education for doctors about the rules once they're released, said Dr. John Dorsey, an internist and the health system's vice president of clinical integration, quality and medical staff affairs.
"We want to make sure staff are adhering to the rules and processes," he said. "We can't do a lot of education until we see those rules specifically."
Doctors need to maintain continuing-education credits to keep their licenses, so learning about and evaluating the use of medical marijuana is part of that.
"New techniques and new therapies are changing old habits," Dorsey said. "This particular one is more unique because there are more restrictions and more legal ramifications.
"It's a very good therapy, and it's a very appropriate therapy for patients who have the conditions on the list."

Below are some tidbits on baseball and sportscard collecting.
Visit our web site for more info on vintage and current
baseball, football, basketball, hockey, sports and
non-sport cards and card collecting.
Like all collectibles, some sports cards increase in value and a few can become very valuable. Determining a card's value is based on a number of factors including the popularity of the player, the card's scarcity, it's condition, and demand among collectors. A card can be scarce but if there's no demand for it, it's value may not be to great.
Q: What are some of the ways to collect cards ? There are several different ways to collect cards. For example, you can try to collect all the cards in a given set. Or you can focus on cards of your favorite team or even just your favorite player.
Some people only collect Rookie cards while others only collect cards of Hall-of-Famers. Because of the high cost of vintage sports cards today a growingly popular way to collect sportscards is "Type Collecting".
"Type Collecting" is collecting just one of each "type" (or different issue) made. To keep costs down, on some of the scarcer more expensive issues you can simply add a less expensive "common" to your collection. While on more common or recent issues you can select your favorite player or a card from your favorite team.
No matter how you collect - the key is to have fun !
1959 Fleer Ted WilliamsTed Williams was one of the greatest hitters ever to play the game ! The 'Splendid Splinter' played from 1939-1942 and 1946-1960 all with the Boston Red Sox. He missed 1943 thru 1945 due to military duty when he was a pilot during the wars. For his career he hit .344 with 521 home runs. Ted Williams was one of the biggest stars baseball has ever seen, and his baseball cards remain very popular and valuable.
Ted's rookie card was in 1950 Bowman and he was exclusive with Bowman from 1950 thru 1954. In 1954 he also allowed Topps to make his cards which they did from 1954 thru 1958.
In 1959 Fleer signed Ted Williams away from Topps and assumed the star Ted Williams would be retiring, put out an entire 80-card set of cards highlighting Ted Williams and illustrating his life both in and out of baseball. Williams decided late in the fall to resign for another year perhaps damaging the sets impact. Today these cards remain extremely popular with most of the cards in teh set still quite affordable.
There is one very rare card in this set, #68 picturing Ted with Bucky Harris.
UNFORTUNATELY Topps had Bucky Harris under exclusive contract and
Fleer had to quickly halt production of this card making it a significant
SHORT PRINT. Only a few made it out to the public. This card is quite rare,
hardly ever seen and a plain old simple checklist making it the perfect
candidate for counterfeiting.
Other interesting cards are those that picture Ted with Babe Ruth, Jimmie Foxx, Sam Snead and Jim Thorpe. In addition, cards of Ted fishing or with his airplane are also very popular.

1971 O-Pee-Chee BaseballAlso referred to as OPC or Topps Canada, most vintage OPC sets were near replicas of the Topps cards from that year. Exactly same in design they usually only differed with the addition of French to the backs and some fronts.
To the benefit of collector's OPC made several changes in their 1971 set. The most obvious and useful was a complete redesign of the card backs and the addition of another player photo !

Another difference: Topps cards #202 and #289 were changed to allow the addition of 2 more Expos to the set.
The 1971 OPC set is legendary for its short print run, estimated at perhaps just 5% of Topps' Production. This issue is considered quite elusive, even in Canada.

In what is truly a disturbing story, comes exclusive Terez Owens news that LeBron's teammate Delonte West is sleeping with LeBron's Mother Gloria James..Yes, this is the purported story coming from my source in Cleveland..My source explains the following."My uncle is the general contractor at the Q and has been for the last 7 years. He's good friends with a lot of guys at the Q, including some of the bigger boys in the organization and knows Dan Gilbert personally.My uncle has been told that Delonte has been banging Gloria James (Lebron's Mom) for some time now. Somehow Lebron found out before game four and it destroyed their chemistry and divided the team. I am not making this up, I wish it wasn't true but it happened. ." With Delonte West's checkered past, LeBron can be none too pleased with his teammate and good friend hanging with his Mother… The Cavs definitely looked like a different squad from game 4 on..especially LeBron…coincidence, or did this really just happen? Maybe this is the reason LeBron's leaving Cleveland..-TO
Update: LeBron's lawyer has sent a cease and desist..As I told him I never claimed the story to be true, merely a purported email sent to me..and that's how I presented it. -TO

Obama's refusal to defend laws violates oath of office
Obama's refusal to defend laws violates oath of office
To the editor,
On Jan. 20, 2013, the president will take the following oath as provided in our Constitution: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."
In view of his current tenure, such an oath is nothing but a charade. Article II, Section 3 states "he shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed." He has refused to defend the Defense of Marriage Act and our immigration laws; and has even gone to the extreme measure of directing defense manufacturers to violate the WARN Act, and if they do so, he will have the taxpayers pay for any damages they might incur.
He has approved of hundreds of new regulations, some of which by his own party admissions have usurped the powers of Congress. He has refused to order the prosecution of the Black Panther Party for voting fraud by ignoring the evidence produced by Judicial Watch. He has had no problem in unilaterally changing laws that have been passed by Congress, such as the waivers granted in ObamaCare.
His office and his entire administration have routinely refused to respond within a reasonable time period to the FOl law. That action requires the requesting party to prosecute court action and when the court orders compliance, they use every tactic to delay or refuse compliance. Some of his executive orders, according to some scholars, exceed his powers.
The Constitution states that we are required to "promote the general Welfare." His actions have made it quite obvious that he considers "promote" and "provide" to be synonymous. His failure to lead 51 Senate Democrats to produce a budget in four years has provided him with an open pocketbook to the taxes of our citizens.
He does not hesitate to lie when he wishes, such as informing us, to support his stimulus plan, that there was "no pork barrel in the plan," when one of the foremost architects of the plan was telling us that we should not care about millions of pork spending. If he didn't lie, then it would follow that he did not read the law before signing it, and either is equally incriminating.
We have a president who will govern as he sees fit and one who will ignore any encumbrance to his desired results, so this ritual is meaningless.
Harold E. Wallace

HARTLAND STATUESHartland produced it's first baseball statues back in the early 60's. Sports Collectibles Digest stated that the 1960's Mickey Mantle Hartland is the single most popular plastic sports statue ever produced ! In 1988 Hartland created their 25th Anniversary Editions which, except for some very minor details, were identical to the original.
Hartland partnered with America's leading hobby-periodical publisher, Krause Publications, to create the SCD Authentic series offering the original 18 as you've never seen them with each statue dramatically different from prior releases. They are amazingly beautiful and exquisitely detailed in their road uniforms with painted pinstripes and wood grained bats making them a unique collectible opportunity for both veteran collectors and Hartland newcomers alike.
Limited to only 2,500 pieces each, these statues are BRAND NEW, MINT and in THEIR ORIGINAL BOXES !!!

1963 Fleer BaseballIn an attempt by Fleer to circumvent Topps exclusive rights to baseball cards, Fleer issued their 1963 baseball cards with cookies instead of gum. It is commonly thought that the 1963 Fleer baseball card issue was intended to be a much larger set issued in multiple series but Topps sued Fleer after their first series was released stopping further production. Due to Topps deep pockets Fleer soon pulled the set from the market and cancelled their plans for the remaining series leaving this very, very popular set at just 66 cards plus one unnumbered checklist.
But what a 66 cards !!! The 1963 Fleer Cards are attractive and feature an extremely high percentage of stars. Some of the top stars in the 1963 Fleer baseball card set are Brooks Robinson, Willie Mays, Carl Yastrzemski, Sandy Koufax, Roberto Clemente, Don Drysdale and Warren Spahn.. The set also included 2 very scare Short Prints, Joe Adcock and an unnumbered checklist.
The most interesting card in this set is the Maury Wills Rookie card. Even though Wills started his major league career with the Dodgers way back in 1959 quickly becoming a superstar, his 1963 Fleer card is considered his rookie card ! How is this possible ? Well, back in 1959, 1960 and 1961, Topps did not consider Wills worthy enough to have a baseball card.
As hobby lore has it: Needless to say, Wills was very upset at this slight from Topps. After Wills won the 1962 N.L. MVP award, Topps quickly came a courting but Wills answered with a large "NO". From 1961 thru 1966, Wills prevented Topps from making any of his baseball cards. Wills and Topps finally made up making his 1967 Topps high number short print his first Topps card and also his most expensive card. Adding interest to the Wills baseball card story, Post Cereal released a Maury Wills card in their 1962 set making that the earliest Maury Wills rookie card. Wills was also pictured on a special 1960 Topps card featuring the 1959 World Series. The card features Luis Aparicio stealing 2nd base with Wills pictured trying to make the tag.
Much of the above is true but Wills has said there was no "fued" with Topps and that he simply had signed exclusive agreements with Fleer.

(part 1)
Common - any card which is not short-printed, an insert, a bonus card, or has an insertion ratio. In short, the cards that comprise the manufacturer's basic set.
Condition - the physical appearance of a card/collectible. Centering, corner wear, photo clarity, edges, the presence of foreign material, signs of misuse are the critical components. Along with rarity/scarcity, it is a major factor in determining the value of a card or collectible.
Crease - an obvious paper wrinkle defect usually caused by bending the card [i.e.- the result of being tortured on a rear-wheel bicycle spoke during the early '50s and '60s].
Die-Cut - an insert/parallel card that differs from the basic card by a process of the manufacturer "cutting" portions of the card revealing a special design. Recent issues may also be individually and serially-numbered.
1967 Topps WHO AM I ?NM/MINT to MINT COMPLETE 1976 Crane Potato Chip Football Discs Set.
It's easy to see why the 1967 Topps "Who Am I? set is a favorite of both sports and non- sport collectors. The set's 44 cards feature mostly important figures from world history but what makes this set even more popular was the inclusion of 4 of baseball's most popular players: Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays and Sandy Koufax !!!
The players picture on the front is covered with a scratch-off disguise with silly, exaggerated features like hair, moustaches, hats, noses... and clues to help kids identify the famous person pictured. The backs contained additional clues and instructions to "Scratch off disguise on front to discover Who I Am. Use a coin or fingernail."
Cards with their scratch-off coating intact are worth many, many times cards with the coatings removed. For example, NM/MINT Babe Ruth with the coating is in the $200-$400 range while a NM/MINT Ruth with the coating removed is closer to $25.
