Park improvements and SPCA issues occupied significant portions of an otherwise low-key Porter Town Board session this past Monday.
First District Niagara County Legislator Clyde Burmaster of Ransomville visited to deliver $150,000 in Niagara River Greenway funding, intended to go for planned improvements at Porter on the Lake Park. The funding is part of a $390,000 Greenway appropriation awarded annually to Niagara County as a Host Community Standing Committee member. It was approved this past spring by the Greenway Commission's Host Standing Committee. Of this total, $60,000 will go toward the purchase and installation of new, handicapped-accessible playground equipment geared for children ages 2 to 5 and 5 to 12 at the park.
Other funding will go toward the purchase of Greenway signage inside the park and construction of a 10-foot wide access path to the playground and for nearby parking. Remaining money would go to POTL's capital project fund, toward future park improvement projects, one of which includes a pavilion. "It's the type of funding that Greenway is intended for," said Burmaster, noting POTL's location on the shore of Lake Ontario and the fact that both Porter and Youngstown straddle area waterways.
Other park news that night saw the Town Board approving an upgrade with National Grid for the installation of new lighting at the corner of Dietz and Lake roads and at the park's entrance on Dietz Road. A third lighting fixture is under consideration where Dietz Road ends on the lakeshore. "It's a safety issue out there," commented Town Highway Superintendent Scott Hillman.
Still more news from the session involved attempts by the town to address ongoing service problems with the SPCA of Niagara. Porter, like other towns in the county under contract with the SPCA, has been contending over past months with response problems involving delayed or non pick-ups of stray dogs and cats, plus issues involving the SPCA's care of animals in need. The town remains under a day-to-day working agreement with the SPCA and has been pursing other options.
According to Town Attorney Mike Dowd, one involves the town's possible contracting with an outside independent provider, who would serve the role of a dog control officer and also as a service provider to animals. However the unnamed woman who expressed interest has yet to fulfill town and state statute requirements to carry this out, as they require the individual to serve as an outside associate engaged "in protection for the care of animals."
"It's a real mess," said Dowd, who notes that the SPCA, which serves as the town's dog warden, frequently runs out of space to house strays that are picked up. "Other towns in the county are contending with it likewise" and are considering other options, he added.
Wrapping up:
•The Town Board heard updates from Dowd and from town Engineer Dave Brittain of CRA Associates on the Balmer Road water tower replacement project under consideration by the town. Dowd reported that federal officials were seeking deed information with regards to the Balmer Road location where an older town water tower currently stands.
And Brittain said he was still considering options on what to do with the older unit should a replacement water tower be built. "Overall that has not advanced enough to be considered at this time," said Brittain in response to questions by the board.
•Town grant writer Bernie Rotella informed the board he would be investigating waterfront revitalization grant funding avenues for Porter on the Lake. He indicated that up to $100,000 in grant funding could be pursued under a Lake Water Revitalization Program, with 50 percent matching funds available to eligible participants. Rotella said Youngstown's waterfront benefitted under an earlier LWRP grant improvement. Town Board members approved a resolution for Rotella to pursue the grant.

Hindi is a standarised and Sanskritised register of the Hindustani language. Hindustani is the language of most people living in Delhi, Bihar, Haryana, Rajasthan, Bihar and Jharkhand. The modern standard Hindi language is one of the official languages of the country India. In 1991, 180 million people in the world were speakers of Hindustani Hindi. However, this number included millions of people who were native speakers of related languages but who thought of their speech as a dialect of Hindi. Bollywood songs are also known as 'Hindi film songs'. These songs are featured in Bollywood films. Derided in Western film circles for the song-and-dance routine, Bollywood songs, along with dance, are a characteristic motif of Hindi cinema which gives it enduring popular appeal, cultural value and context. Hindi films are very popular in North-India and routinely played in shops, during train journeys and in marketplaces. Hindi film songs presented in 1931 for the first time by Irani. The second person was Madan, he had 42 songs strung together in the manner of an opera, and later by Indra Sabha which had as many as 69 song sequences. However, the practice subsided and subsequent films usually featured between six to ten songs in each production. The name Bollywood is a combination of Bombay (Mumbai's old name) and Hollywood and it is often used to summarize all movies produced in India. While Bollywood is the center of the Hindi movie industry, movies are made in other regions and local languages as well. Music has been a part of Indian cinema since the first audio movie. "Alam Ara" included seven songs. The movie "Indra Sabha" from the 1932 included 69 songs. This genre is very popular in Indian countries around the whole world not only in the country India. Don't forget, Bollywood isn't Hollywood!

Pentagon Chief: Taliban "Elements" Interested In Talks
Defense Secretary Jim Mattis says some members of the Taliban are interested in talking with Afghanistan's government. Mattis told reporters traveling with him to Afghanistan today that the U.S. is picking up signs that some elements within the terrorist organization are ready to explore peace talks with the government. Mattis said his visit to Kabul is to assess recently increased U.S. military operations and the chances of reconciliation between the Afghan government and the Taliban.
Mattis said the victory the U.S. is looking for after more than 16 years in Afghanistan is a political reconciliation, not a military victory.

Perhaps the best ad I've ever seen on Facebook
Those ads on the right side of Facebook sure are… I dunno, ineffective? The ones I notice are always politically driven and nowhere close to my own political ideologies… that is, until the one I saw today.
You may have once heard that Donation was the greatest nation on earth. That may not be wrong, but it should be pointed out that not only does this ad promise to pay those that donate sperm, but the 'Got Sperm?' slogan along with the sperm as the question mark is positively genius! (Have to wonder if the 'Got Milk?' guy is pissed, though.) I bet this ad does well from an ROI perspective.

Supermodel Naomi Campbell has accused several fashion designer, whom she has not named, of snubbing models from an ethnic background.
The 43-year-old insists some casting agents only want to hire white models and she fears the issue has worsened since she began her career in the industry more than 25 years ago.
Campbell, who co-founded the Diversity Coalition earlier this month to tackle racism in the fashion world, tells Britain's Channel 4 News, "I'm saying the act of not choosing models of color is racist. So … we're not calling them racist, we are saying the act is racist. … What we are asking for is that you are based on your talent, on your beauty, not on the color of your skin."
Campbell insists only 15 percent of models who hit the catwalk during New York Fashion Week earlier this month were of black or Asian, but she appeared more optimistic about London Fashion Week, adding, "I think London will do the right thing."

New Mexico gets some payback
Philadelphia, PA – Congratulations Steve Alford, you and your New Mexico Lobos just lost to underdog Harvard in the second round of the NCAA Tournament, please accept your parting gift of a seven-year, $18.2 million contract with UCLA.
Granted, this didn't take place in recent days, it was a deal struck at the end of March, but Alford is back in the news even before leading the Bruins onto the floor to tip off the 2013-14 campaign in Los Angeles.
Over the weekend, Alford's former employer in Albuquerque announced that it had come to an agreement in principle about the coach's buyout and even though the amount is in the six-figure range, in some minds it is not nearly enough to counter the manner in which Alford handled his transition from UNM to UCLA.
Initially, New Mexico had asked Alford to write a check for $1 million, but the coach balked. The coach was willing to hand over $200,000 instead, but that simply wasn't in the same ballpark. For the most part, the sides have agreed on a figure of $625,000, with some finer details still to be hammered out.
Perhaps the divorce between the two sides would not have been so contentious were it not for the manner in which it played out over a span of barely two weeks during that maddening month of college hoops.
Alford, a high school phenom who was named Indiana's "Mr. Basketball" before choosing to play for Bob Knight and the Indiana Hoosiers, has certainly paid his dues when it comes to steadily climbing up the college coaching ladder. After a brief professional career in the NBA, Alford began his ascent by taking over tiny Manchester College in Indiana, a Division III program, back in 1991.
At Manchester, Alford built a highly successful program that reached its pinnacle with an appearance in the D-III championship game in 1995, the squad finishing second in the nation with a record of 31-1. He finished with a record of 78-29 during his tenure there.
Onto Southwest Missouri State where Alford guided that group to a 78-48 mark and a spot in the NCAA Tournament where the Bears bowed to Duke in the round of 16 in 1999.
Iowa then came calling on the rising star and although the Hawkeyes had a tough time competing in the Big Ten Conference (61-67), Alford still led the program to six postseason appearances and a record of 152-106 overall.
Over in the Mountain West Conference with New Mexico between 2007-2013, Alford raised his visibility considerably. In each of his six campaigns with the Lobos the team won at least 22 games and finished in at least a tie for first in the league standings four times. Nationally ranked this past season, the Lobos again won the MWC Tournament in Las Vegas with victories over Wyoming, San Diego State and host UNLV, but there was still more to accomplish.
An automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament was the reward for the entire team for their efforts in Sin City, but Alford had his sights set on a much bigger prize, one that would fit neatly into his bank account, and the university was more than happy to accommodate.
Just days after taking out the Runnin' Rebels at the Thomas & Mack Center, New Mexico Vice President of Athletics Paul Krebs announced a new 10-year agreement with Steve Alford to remain as the head basketball coach of the Lobos.
"I have said from our first game in The Pit that this was a special place and that it was a tremendous honor to be the head basketball coach at the University of New Mexico. Now six years in, we have built a Top-25 program on and off the court," said Alford of the agreement.
Sounds promising, right?
"There is no other place I would rather coach than at UNM, representing the best fans in the country ... I'm very excited about what we have accomplished in our first six years, and I look forward to building on those successes in the future."
Apparently Alford, who made those statements on March 20, has a different idea of what the "future" is compared to the rest of us.
One day later, the Lobos hit the hardwood in Salt Lake City, UT against the Crimson in the second round of the NCAA Tournament (actually, the first game of the event for UNM) and promptly dropped a 68-62 decision and headed home.
Sure, the end came far too soon for New Mexico in 2013, but the promise of Alford continuing to lead this squad for another decade was still an exciting prospect. The coach has one of the better winning percentages, .663 (463-235), in the game and was clearly the right man for the job in the Land of Enchantment.
That is, before the coaching carousel kicked into high gear as the bulk of more than 40 job openings at the Division I level went up for grabs.
Just days after expressing his love for his team, the school, and the Albuquerque community, Alford had a change of heart. That change was precipitated by the firing of Ben Howland at UCLA, after he failed to live up to the lofty expectations that come with a program that has won 11 national titles.
Under the radar, through back channels, on the down low, however you want to describe the secretive talks, Alford went from being beloved at UNM to someone they would want to throw into The Pit and torn to shreds by actual wolves.
"I don't want anything but success for this program," Alford said of UNM on his way out the door. "Players (UNM), they should be upset, they should be frustrated. I'm upset, I'm frustrated even though I'm very excited and it's a happy day for me and my family, there's some sadness to it too."
Those statements sounded rather hollow however. Disingenuous comments made by a man trying to get out of town without causing civil unrest and remaining in one piece.
Fast-forward to April 2 and Pauley Pavilion where Alford was back with more spin control during his introduction as the newest head coach of the Bruins.
"As I started looking into this opportunity, and it was a very difficult decision, it was a leap of faith, it was a family decision ... I just saw a place that could really help better everything about our family."
I suppose what he is trying to say is that there are new opportunities opening up for his family in a new locale, and not so much that his brood had outgrown New Mexico, but still it came off rather elitist in nature nonetheless. Nothing like pretending to care so much about the people you deserted, and hope that they can look beyond your insincerity.
How can you even begin to trust someone like Alford who claimed to embody all the University of New Mexico stood for, made a significant commitment to the Lobos only days earlier, and then scurried away when he was presented with another opportunity? How do players and fans stay loyal to a coach when the values are not reciprocated?
Congratulations New Mexico for being treated like the ugly step-child in all of this, but at least you've proven that you are the bigger man.

Recently, Friedrich has modeled and sold in limited markets their DIY Mini-Split Heat Pump, Breeze. Just a few days ago, they scaled back their rollout in order to meet customer demand by limiting sales to New York and South Florida. I am torn between two very valid arguments on this product, the HVAC Professional and the Energy Geek in me have compelling points. Please, read both before you provide a comment!
HVAC Professional
Proper Sizing - In order to properly size the equipment, and meet current building code in most of New England, an ACCA Manual J v8 Load Calculation should be performed. Although this equipment is variable capacity, installing the larger option could be a waste of money, materials, and energy.
Equipment Installation - Every HVAC professional knows during installation that vacuuming of the refrigerant lines are required. Moisture can wreak havoc in an HFC refrigerant cycle like R-410A. Non-condensables will artificially raise liquid line pressures, decrease capacity, and raise compressor amperage. Fortunately, the engineers at Friedrich thought of this and provide pre-charged flexible line sets that have quick connect fittings. How long before that check valve hangs up, or wears out?
System Efficiency - A 115V mini-split will almost always use more watts than the same size 208/230V counterpart. This is why a professionally installed system sport SEER Ratings from 22-27! If disconnected following a heating or cooling season, it is guaranteed small amounts of refrigerant will leak out. How long before the unit will not operate, or efficiencies are so low the window unit would have been the better option? Never thought I would have said that…
EPA Clean Air Act, Section 608 – Unfortunately, this ruling that changed our industry for the better almost 20 years ago does not include the restriction of equipment sales including HFC refrigerants, like R-410A. Although sales are not restricted, it is illegal to vent HFC refrigerants into the air.
Energy Geek
Energy Savings - For a homeowner, competent enough to install this on their own, this could mean significant energy savings in both the Summer and mild parts of Winter. Imagine how many window units that historically are operating at 7 or 8 SEER would be removed and hopefully scrapped!
Technology Advancement - Flexible linesets, precharged, and counted on not to leak is a far cry from some of the poor installs completed by less than competent technicians out there. Don't get me wrong, it is much less than 10% that falls into this category. Maybe this is the one thing the HVAC Industry can take away from this attempt of cutting them out of a booming industry? Gone may be the days of bad flare fittings, leaking or kinked line sets, and ripped pipe insulation.
Window Sill Accessory - This goes against everything I can think of as a Building Analyst. Let us offer an accessory that can be installed in a window, already the weakest point in an insulated wall, to which a line set can pass through? What kind of leakage would this cause, moisture pouring in, and offsetting any savings you may have had with the new product? But, in retrospect, how leaky was it with the window shaker in there all last Summer, oh and Winter since we were too lazy to take it out!
Can it be possible to put all of the negative factors aside and trust everyone will be installing this equipment correctly? I can see it now, big box stores renting out DIY install kits and the product being front and center on all of those network television shows. Maybe the idea of making these systems affordable by cutting out installation labor costs could make sense for some parts of the world. Please, I do not want to see them in parts of our country that have power problems and Efficiency Rebate Programs to promote the proper design and installation of systems that can save significant electricity! I would hate to be a Friedrich Dealer in these areas where sales have already begun; I guess things could always be worse…

Some of the many benefits include:
Small Size
Energy Efficient
Cost Efficient
Easy to Install
Flexible Applications
Maximum Comfort
The following quote does not ring true to me
"System Efficiency - A 115V mini-split will almost always use more watts than the same size 208/230V counterpart."
If you can support this statement with independent research I would like to see it.
When I studied electronics we were taught all watts are equal and do the same amount of work regardless of the voltage that delivered them.
The Friedrich units you linked to have the same SEER ratings with different voltages.
I could agree that larger systems may be slightly more efficient than smaller ones.
I could agree that lower voltages systems cost more to install as the larger gage wires required to move the same number of watts costs more.
I could agree that sometimes low cost systems are designed around less efficient parts to hold down costs.
I wanted to send this question a as a private message but I can't without Christopher's permission
I guess I will make a fool of myself in public with my first post.
Let them sell however they like, homeowners will find a way to buy what they want. Manufacturers could void warranty for DIY install, but they would have to analize how many sales they would loose to competitors who do warranty DIY installs.
Government needs to stay out of the whole thing !!!
I meant to add that Friedrich's engineering, marketing and sales also blew it.. they also still use the old 115Vac/230Vac for line voltage... sort of makes you wonder what else they missed.
ANSI stuff:
The standard process started back in 1954... pretty much went nation wide in the 70's... very few 115/230 electrical islands should still exist... except perhaps on a geological island...
Minor corrections, 115Vac/230Vac, was phased out years ago when ANSI C84.x was adopted. US wide standard line voltage is 120Vac/240Vac... although many of us still think 115Vac... its been perhaps 20 years.
While there might be a slight increase in the watts between 120Vac/240Vac, that is likely to be minimal or almost nothing in future years. The line current may double, but the total watts is likely to be nearly the same. The reason is that many of the units are going to inverter based technology - and are likely to be using brushless permanent motors in the future. The days of the permanent split capacitor motors (PSC) are likely to be numbered.
While I'd hope manual J's are done for a house before HVAC is changed, or Manual D and S... those steps are often skipped even by HVAC companies that should know better. Too much competition. I've had friends in relatives that have been victim of the "we just upsize the HVAC" so it works right. Bigger is better aways... until that "jet engine" turns on the first time it is used.
I certainly appreciate the concerns about R-410A, and perhaps when propane and CO2 are used more frequently as the refrigerant -- the resulting accidents may result in tighter restrictions...
One last comment, for many years the consumer electronics repair industry had certifications for repair techs. The goal was to ensure that the consumers were not being ripped off by individuals that had absolutely no knowledge of what they were doing in the back of the TV set, stereo, or early computers. There are not a lot of repair shops left... technology evolved and local neighborhood repair shops closed down. We may not like it, but to be honest - how many on this forum have just recycled an appliance or piece of electronics and not frequented the repair shops? It's a tough chicken and egg problem. The little shops can't get parts, customers buy new items...old units get tossed. Same thing is happening in auto industry. It has happened in the computer/PC industry.... and you are seeing the beginning of it in the residential HVAC industry.
Consumers desperately need options cheaper than the status quo, so at a minimum the creativity of this DIY approach should be applauded. But John Proctor's right. The real issue is that this market isn't innovating fast enough (and to date the Feds have done little to change that). I keep waiting for a disruptor (like maybe a Fujitsu, Google/Nest, even NRG-Solar?) to swoop in and shake things up, but that certainly hasn't happened yet. Friedrich is making this modestly incremental play, but I suspect the pull-back in their roll-out isn't entirely related to volume. Surely they must be nervous to find out what fraction of real world installations don't go as planned.
To answer your question, I lean toward the DIY advocates (I consider low cost to be that important). But before I decide, I'd like to see a pilot study with side-by-side life-cycle cost analysis of these three currently available ductless options:
Then maybe add some form of third-party-verification on top of all three and run the analysis again.
A well-designed research study would go a long way toward settling this good debate you've raised.
Chris I think it is way too risky to think these can be assembled on site by homeowners given the experience in other countries and with professionals in the US. On the other hand we need to fix the problem. There is no reason that "window shakers" have to shake or be inefficient. However the current rulemaking for PTACs and PTHPs is woefully inadequate to push the market. We could build window and wall units that do not have on site assembly with high EERs and SEERs and they are automatically zoned. The problem is that no one wants to push the market.

Nice Job Chris excellent breakdown. Regarding the snap refrigerant lines the might be ok. I can remember when faucets came out with the snap fittings. I thought really how long is this going last before it leaks. I have had a problem with a few but it was my fault. I must admit that ten plus years later I was wrong and they are fine. Lets hope it is the same with those pre charged lines. Also when you look at the picture they have the condenser right next to the window as well. Not the best idea.
I am considering one for my home as
1) our need for AC is light in my climate
2) initial cost is low
3) the slim condenser unit would be perfect as I can hide it from the wife and not have to hear about that big ugly thing
I have also seen jobs where there is no ducting in areas of discomfort and this would be a problem solver.

This past weekend, Sarah and I went on a long walk in the woods at a state park, checked out the restored birthplace of President Herbert Hoover, ate a picnic meal in a beautiful grove, found a bunch of Devonian-era fossils, and played with our children on a playground.
Our total cost for all of this – minus the food we brought ourselves – was nothing. All of it was made free to us by our community and other communities in Iowa.
In the past month, my family has gone ice skating in a public rink, played disc golf, played tennis, played basketball, watched an outdoor concert, and enjoyed a pile of food samples. Cost (beyond stuff we already own)? Nothing.
In the next month and a half or so, my children are participating in a youth soccer league, my oldest may be participating in a youth baseball league, we're going camping for a weekend (probably), going to a couple of concerts, watching at least two parades, eating a ton of food samples and at least one meal, watching multiple live sporting demonstrations and tournaments, playing and eating picnics and exploring and hiking in several public parks, going on a family scenic bicycle ride, and observing the religious practices of several world religions. Cost (beyond stuff we already own)? Nothing.
The amazing thing is that we're barely scratching the surface of what's available to us. The vast majority of the free options we have on hand are discarded without discussion, and quite a few more are tossed aside after discussion. There are still more things to do and enjoy in our community and surrounding communities that are free than we can ever take advantage of.
How do you find all of this stuff? Here are several tactics to use.
Read any and all free local newspapers. They are almost always full of notices of free community events, festivals, parades, concerts, and other things of that nature.
Find your community's parks and rec department's website (and those of towns nearby). Search for your town's name plus the phrase "parks and recreation" in Google. Look at the offerings they have, from bike and hiking trails to parks and organized sporting activities.
Find your community's calendar of upcoming events (and those of towns nearby). Search for your town's name plus the phrase "community calendar" or "upcoming events" in Google and you should find something (provided your town has at least a little size to it). Do the same for surrounding communities. You'll find tons of different activities, from community festivals and parades.
Keep your eyes open. I've discovered many community events by simply examining the bulletin board in local stores or outside the local post office or near city hall. I've found posters for interesting events all over the place, from being taped to light poles to being stuck in our front door.
We've found that, as a family, if we have a long list of free things to do, we eventually find a few that we all have at least some interest in doing, and if it's a free activity that's enjoyable for all of us, that's a big win. We aren't spending money, but we're all having fun.
If you can find fifty free things to do, you only need to have one of them be appealing to you to have something free and fun for you to do.

I love to share about our personal lives and happiness here with others through our photography.

On August 7th Mayor Michael Bloomberg, cautioned his would-be successors, not to capitulate when negotiating pension and health care benefits for city workers. He warned that if city leaders fail to control "unsustainable employee compensation costs, it could find itself trapped in the same 'downward cycle' as bankrupt Detroit" where pension payments to the Police and Fire Retirement System alone have grown to approximately 114 percent of payroll.
Bloomberg also mentioned that existing state laws "has forced the city to continue giving pay increases to employees whose most recent contracts expired three or four years ago, something union leaders invariably gloss over when they demand retroactive pay hikes the city can't afford."
Case in point, as reported in the Rockville Centre Herald last March, an "arbitration panel awarded our police officers two retroactive salary increases of 3.25 percent for 2010 and 2011, among other increases." In the judgment of Village Administrator Keith Spadaro, the arbitrator's decision did not "address our requests for relief from the ever-rising cost of salaries, health care and pension contributions." To expect otherwise would have been foolish. Why?
E. J. McMahon, a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute's Center for State and Local Leadership, addresses this question specifically in a column published back in May. The "compulsory binding arbitration process unduly favors unions and puts to sleep bargaining restraints that logically should apply with absolutely no redress possible."
On June 18, 2013, Governor Cuomo announced changes in the binding arbitration process that gives far greater weight to a municipality's ability to pay and constraints imposed by the property-tax cap limitations. That should be good news. It's not. Why? The following week, two dozen unsettled union contacts, including one submitted by the Rockville Centre PBA, were allowed "carve-out" i.e. revert to a more favorable bargaining platform.
Procedural nonsense hardly! Should we be concerned? You bet! According to the state Public Employment Relations Board, the settlement foisted on the village resulted in unaffordable salary increases while perpetuating costly work rules and benefits. In particular, their report noted the panel's 2-1 rejection of the village's proposals to increase the work year, to curtail severance pay, to reduce vacation and sick allotments, and raise health insurance contributions for new hires. Their assessment: "with overtime and other extras, the village police force received an average annual salary of $141,384 before the arbitration award took place," among the best paid in the state.
Village administrators are caught in a vortex of badly engineered law and political chicanery that goes well beyond tolerable level. A clarion call to bring some form of reality into play continues to be ignored. The City of Detroit has been brought to its knees in its bankruptcy filing, Mayor Bloomberg exhibits unease and the taxpayers of the Village of Rockville Centre will have to live with increases in costs that might have been avoidable. In my next column I'll explain what Governor Cuomo intends to accomplish for cities he identifies as "virtually broke." Stay tuned.

Republican officials abruptly announced plans Saturday evening to scrap the first day of their national convention, bowing to a threat posed by Tropical Storm Isaac, churning toward Florida.
"Our first priority is ensuring the safety of delegates, alternates, guests, members of the media attending the Republican National Convention, and citizens of the Tampa Bay area," party chairman Reince Priebus said in an emailed announcement that followed private conversations involving presidential candidate Mitt Romney's campaign, security officials and others. (Read More:South Florida On Alert; Tropical Storm Isaac Leaves Haiti)
Priebus added that forecasters have predicted that convention-goers "may encounter severe transportation difficulties due to sustained wind and rain" on Monday, the day the convention had been scheduled to open.
The announcement said that while the convention would officially be gaveled into session on Monday as scheduled, the day's events would be cancelled until Tuesday.
That meant Romney's formal nomination would be postponed by a day, from Monday to Tuesday, but the balance of the four days of political pageantry and speechmaking would go on as scheduled.
On his official Twitter account, @MittRomney wrote, "The safety of those in Isaac's path is of the utmost importance. I applaud those in Tampa making appropriate schedule changes."
The former Massachusetts governor campaigned in battleground Ohio during the day, pledging to help women entrepreneurs and innovators who are eager to create small businesses and the jobs that go with them. It was an economy-themed countdown to the Republican National Convention taking shape in a city already bristling with security -- and bracing for a possible hurricane.
"Women in this country are more likely to start businesses than men. Women need our help," said the Republican presidential challenger, eager to relegate recent controversy over abortion to the sidelines and make the nation's slow economic recovery the dominant issue of his convention week.
The former Massachusetts governor campaigned with running mate Paul Ryanin battleground Ohio as delegates arrived in Florida by the planeload. Across town, technicians completed the conversion of a hockey arena along Tampa Bay into a red, white and blue-themed convention hall.
The announcement made the GOP convention the party's second in a row to be disrupted by weather. Four years ago, the delegates gathered in St. Paul, Minn., but Hurricane Gustav, slamming the Gulf Coast, led to a one-day postponement.
In that case, party officials rewrote their script to make President George W. Bush's speech into a video appearance, and to cancel plans for Vice President Dick Cheney to appear before the delegates. Both men were unpopular at the time.
Four years later, there was no immediate sign that Romney's forces would do anything other than squeeze two nights' of platform programming into one. Nor did it appear the postponement would cost them much, since the television networks had already announced they would not be carrying any of Monday's events live.
There was no hint in the announcement of a postponement of plans to evacuate the roughly 2,000 delegates eager to nominate Romney and Ryan as their ticket for the fall campaign.
"Federal, state and local officials assure us that they are prepared to respond, if needed, and the scheduling changes we are announcing today will help ensure the continued safety of all participants - our foremost concern," the announcement said.
"We are also committed to keeping the delegates and guests of the convention well informed about the situation, and we will continue providing updates in the hours and days ahead."

The UN agency also managed to deliver food aid to several communities that had been previously cut off by fighting. But as Syria Country Director Matthew Hollingworth notes, there are many other communities that are still cut off. WFP is gravely concerned about the fate of Syrians trapped in conflict zones.

Eating Disorder Treatment Cost varies. Our team of experienced insurance verification specialists will check your insurance benefits
The treatment cost for an individual at the Fairfax, VA eating disorder treatment center can vary greatly, and it is largely dependent on the type of treatment and the intensity. Eating disorder treatment consists of different levels of care to address the medical, psychological, and nutritional needs of the person seeking treatment. The associated costs will depend on the level of care as well as the type of setting where the treatment is being provided.
Furthermore, the cost of eating disorder treatment can vary based on the amount of treatment the individual will need over time. Research has shown that early intervention and treatment can significantly improve a person's chance of recovery. If you or a loved one is struggling with an eating disorder, it is important to seek treatment as early as possible, which could potentially reduce treatment-related costs over time.
When seeking treatment at our Fairfax, VA Eating Disorder Treatment Center, it is important to know if your health insurance will cover the cost of treatment and whether there is any cost to you. Individual insurance policies vary in regards to specific benefits and coverage, limits, and whether there is any out-of-pocket cost to you. The good news is that most of the individuals and families who seek treatment at our Fairfax, VA Center For Discovery are able to use their insurance benefits to fully or partially cover the cost of treatment. Center For Discovery is a preferred provider with most major insurance companies, which means we are "in-network." An insurance network includes all treatment providers who work closely with your insurance company to provide quality care to health plan members like you. Therefore, treatment with an in-network provider like us is often less costly than it may be with an "out-of-network" provider.
At Center For Discovery, we have an experienced team of insurance verification specialists that will check your insurance benefits, free of charge. When a member of our team calls your insurance company to verify your benefits, they will:
Our team will then clearly explain this information to you and answer any insurance-related questions you have throughout the process.
At Center For Discovery, we are committed to working with you and your family to make treatment affordable. If there is an out-of-pocket cost that might be challenging for you to pay at the outset of treatment, we will discuss financing options to fit your unique financial situation. If you are unsure about the cost of treatment or whether to take the next step, we encourage you to contact us for a free, confidential assessment, and we welcome you to attend one of our many free support groups.
Center For Discovery recovery treatment centers specializes in treating a variety of eating disorders and customizes treatment to the individual. Our Fairfax, VA eating disorder treatment center provides treatment for the following eating disorders:
Anorexia Nervosa
Bulimia Nervosa
Binge Eating Disorder

It was past seven in the evening. I was tired and hungry and badly in need of sleep. My feet hurt from all the walking in my ten days in Morocco. Wearing wedges and clogs while navigating the peaks and troughs of the narrow ancient streets of Fes, and forever dodging raging donkeys was not a good idea. And always, when most things turned out bad, all I could do was retrospect. 'In retrospect, I should have just worn my Skechers with the kaftan even if it would look like the biggest fashion blunder in my lifetime.' In retrospect, I'd rather have a hurt ego and morbid fashion sense than these festering blisters on my feet.
Heathrow Terminal 2 was sleepy at the time I arrived. I was with about a dozen other backpackers randomly perched on plastic airport seats. I was waiting for my bus to Southampton and was about to stretch my leg on top of the rest of the chairs when an English chap whom I earlier saw seated three rows away from me suddenly sprinted and sat on one of the seats, I was forced to fold my legs, my chin on my knees. I leaned against my backpack which now became my backrest although I had intended it to be my pillow had this chap not interrupted the space I had planned to dominate.
'I had seen you crossing the street as you were coming in.'
'Oh yeah? I must have been eye catching?'
'No. You didn't use the pedestrian lane'
'I see. So you must be the traffic police or something?'
'Bloody hell, no, ha ha. I was just telling you what I saw'
'I'm adventurous. I wanted to see who's tougher – me or the Mini Cooper that couldn't screech!'
'Ha ha, you're funny'
'I'm sleepy actually'
'Oh I'm sorry. I disturbed you.
'Yes you did'
'Ugh, that hurt', he feigned hurt by clutching his chest.
'Now that's hysterical' I said as I propped myself, seated upright and leaned against the hard backrest of the chair that was way too angled I could hardly make it support my back.
'I'm Jack', he said as he extended his hand.
'Hi Jack! Hah, that wouldn't sound so good if we met on the plane. You know when people would overhear. I see pandemonium. Hi Jack! Get it?'
He guffawed 'Gawd, you're funny!'
'No I'm not. I'm Eva'.
'Hi Eeeva'
'No, do it the way we do back home, it's short E. E-va'
'Ugh, Ok. I got that. Eva.
It was only when he extended his hand for a handshake that I took a better look at Jack. He was not that tall for an English guy, early twenties (twenty three, he confirmed later). I would have mistaken him for a Maltese. He was short, by English standards, with a mop of curly light brown hair and the freckles on his face. His face was red, the kind of red that told me it was not a tan, and if it ever was, it was not a good one. He was sunburned but he looked benign rather than menacing.
'So where did you get your tan?'
'I just got back from a month in Egypt'
'Do you mind if I ask what you did there?'
'Holidays. And work on the side. I was scuba diving instructor in Sharm-el-Sheikh'
'Wow! Sharm-el-Sheikh!' I exclaimed.
'You've been there?'
'No, but I heard a lot about the place. You don't need a month to get a hang of the place you know'
"Ha ha. Don't tell anyone but I worked there on the side as a scuba diving instructor'
'Wow! Scuba diver. But then you already told me that earlier'
' I said I was an instructor. For my college tuition. Do you always say 'Wow'?'
'Ah ah, no. Only when I'm impressed'
'Anyway, I make really good money out there. Hey, I'm making you a deal. Would you work for me?
'I can't even swim.'
'No, not that. You see, I brought along hookahs to sell to friends. I've got a lot. You can help me sell. Where do you stay?
'Wow. Hookahs! Southampton. I live in Southampton'
'Great, I do not get that area covered. And also, you can help me collect. Not everybody pays on time. I'm planning to expand the business'
'Isn't that illegal?'
"The what? Hookahs? Hell, no!'
'Not that. If I work here, that would be illegal. Did you think I'm on a holiday visa or something. I'm not even a British citizen.'
'Okay. So what. I was a tourist in Egypt but I got to work on the side'
'Wow! Such enthusiasm. In five years your will be known as the Hookah Hawker.'
'Seriously now!'
'Listen Jack, do I look like I have an 'I need a job' post-it on my forehead. I'm on a sabbatical so I have no intention to work. Nada. How much commission am I going to get for each sale anyway?'
'Are you in or what?'
'Hell no! I'm just trying to humor you. Listen, I just got out of the darn immigration with the airport security turning my innards inside out, okay, that's hyperbole, just my Clinique maquillage and eye palette because airport security was looking for joint because I was a solo female traveler who flew in from Morocco and I am seething in anger because they manhandled my make up-kit and my books. Nobody does anything like that to my make-up and books! I still have four months in my visa and I've no plans of cutting it short. I'd rather drop dead than be deported. It's just so un-chic'
'The dropping dead or the deporting?'
"Both actually but I'd rather be dead. At least I'll get flowers that way.'
'Ow ow, wait, that's a nice valedictory but my offer can't be that bad'
'No! Tomorrow when my family goes to Marwell Zoo I'm sure someone will be stalking me and profiling me and now I'm talking to you'
'Listen. Do you mind if I smoke'
'Go ahead. Kill yourself softly'
'Ugh, that's mean. So mean. Want one?'
'Wow, Marlboro lights. Sorry, I don't smoke'.
'Anyway, I'm off to take the 8PM bus to Devon. Here, write me your e-mail. I'll get in touch'
'Ok, if I give you my e-mail do you promise to get the hell out of here?'
'Of course. There's my bus! Yours?'
'Ten o'clock'
'Okay, I'll get in touch'
And in a jiffy he was out of my sight, as he scurried to the door with a huge box of his hookahs and a duffel bag slung on his shoulder on his way to his bus for Devon.
Two days after I arrived in Southampton I got an e-mails from Jack. He was still pestering me about working for him selling the hookahs. Each time I said no. On his last e-mail, he said that if I could not help him sell, could I help him collect?'
And then he had me switching to messenger so we could chat.
'And what makes you think your minions will pay if I collect instead of you?'
'I dunno. I just think they would. You look respectable'
'You mean intimidating'
'Your word not mine'
'It's illegal for me to do that here'
'C'mon. The Chinese do it all the time'
'I'm not Chinese in case you didn't notice'
'You're not?'
'Listen, I'm off again to Sharm-el-Sheikh next week to get more hookahs. You need to help me'
'And again, do I look like a filled out application form because I need a job so bad?'
'No, but you sure could make better use of your time rather than wait for your garbage collector crush every Thursday. Your words, not mine.'
'Ha ha. You remember. I was trying to humor you. Besides the garbage collector does look gorgeous. Like Edward Norton gorgeous'
'Edward who? Anyway, I'm a businessman. I'm in the business of remembering details'
'Oh no you're not. You're a street smart hookah hawker doubling as illegal scuba diving instructor'
'Ha ha. You're sweet words are killing me. Listen I got to go. Talk to you after I come back in two weeks. Cheerios amigos!'
'Wow, Spanish. I'm not Spanish either.'
'You're not?' Ciao now brown cow'
'That's racist!'
But then he was offline.
Two weeks after, the story was all over the news that the seaside resort of Sharm-el-Sheikh was bombed by terrorists. Scores were killed and hundreds more injured.
I never heard from Jack again.

Packers tackle Tony Mandarich (77) and running back Vince Workman (46) are at right. The Packers lost 35-21.One significant difference between these jerseys and the modern version is the number construction. These numbers are silkscreened on.

The Packers would use silkscreened numbers through the 1994 season, although the NFL 75th Anniversary throwback uniforms from that season featured tackle-twill numbers. Tackle-twill was added to the Packers' regular green and white jerseys beginning in 1995.
There's that single gold sock stripe again.

Green Bay Packers return men Charles Wilson (88) and Vai Sikahema (45) await a kickoff from the Minnesota Vikings at Lambeau Field.I'm also struck by the chopped sleeves; by this point, some players had already begun having their jersey sleeves customized for a tighter fit, effectively reducing Vince Lombardi's five sleeve stripes to three (a change the Packers would make team-wide in 1997).
Some players took it even farther:

In the same photo, we can see players with five sleeve stripes, three and none. No wonder the Packers felt they had to take action; the uniforms were threatening to become anything but.

'Tis the season — for strawberries
- Written by 21 Acres
It's been a long, wet spring here in the Puget Sound but with some additional sunny days this year, the Northwest strawberry season is on track. Virtually everyone equates fresh picked berries with the arrival of summer. This sweet, delectable fruit will soon be in abundance.
Why is anticipation so high for this in-demand berry? Shoppers, not just "foodies," are becoming more attuned to the benefits of organically grown farm products and are demanding more flavorful, pesticide and chemical free produce. Strawberries are number three on the list of the "dirty dozen;" a list of foods with the highest pesticide residue compiled by the Environmental Working Group (www.ewg.org). They rank high on the list, in part, because berries are prone to fungus which prompts conventional farmers to spray, leaving pesticide residue. So, ignore those perfectly shaped, flavorless berries commercially grown and shipped in from the south. They've been grown for mass production and bred for size, high yield and color. The locally grown, pesticide free, organic strawberry has higher concentrations of antioxidants and vitamin C than those California wannabes. They may not be as pretty, perhaps a bit odd in shape, but once you bite into one fresh from your market, you'll never want another.
Need to know where to buy organic strawberries this season? Visit 21acres.org for a link to the Puget Sound Farm Guide with information on U-pick farms. Want to enjoy the fruits of someone else's labor? Purchase fresh picked berries at your local farms including Woodinville's Root Connection; Carnation's Oxbow Farm; your local farmer's market; and of course, at the 21 Acres Market, open each week Wednesday through Friday, noon to 7 p.m.
Are you looking for new ways to prepare and devour this versatile berry? Celebrate this seasonal favorite with Chef Emily Moore, in a hands-on cooking class, "Strawberries in Season" on Saturday, July 7 from noon to 3:30 p.m. at 21 Acres in Woodinville. Bring your empty pint jars to be filled with fresh strawberry jams created from syrups infused with herb and flower essences. While the jams simmer students will make flaky buttermilk scone biscuits for strawberry shortcakes to be savored with fresh whipped cream from Duvall's Cherry Valley Dairy and sweet quark from Toucan Tango cheeses. You'll also learn to dry local strawberries for delicious winter treats.
Instructor Emily Moore is nationally recognized for her flavorful creations and artful presentations as former Executive Chef of Theoz and The Painted Table. She has received top reviews from local and regional food critics for her innovative cuisine. Currently Moore is Chef Instructor at Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts in Seattle.

Kipnis finds power to back McAllister's gem

CLEVELAND -- The Indians just needed an opening. Right-hander Zach McAllister was doing his part on the mound, working swiftly and efficiently to keep San Diego's offense in check. His performance bought time for a cold Cleveland offense to warm up.
The Tribe got its chance and took advantage.View Full Game Coverage
Jason Kipnis capitalized on a fielding error by the Padres in the sixth inning, launching a two-run home run that gave McAllister and the Indians all that was required for a 2-0 win in the first game of a doubleheader on Wednesday. The victory sealed a win of the three-game Interleague set at Progressive Field.
"He was good," Indians manager Terry Francona said of McAllister. "He came out of the bullpen with a fastball-changeup combination that was really strong. And he pretty much used it the entire way. That's probably one of the better changeups we've seen him have."
Cleveland's rotation had struggled for most of the past week, but McAllister turned in a strong outing one day after Corey Kluber did the same for the Tribe. McAllister breezed through 7 2/3 innings against the Padres, scattering five hits and ended the afternoon with no walks and seven strikeouts.
Three of San Diego's five hits were doubles, but McAllister sidestepped harm at each turn.
Seth Smith doubled with one out in the first inning, and then watched McAllister induce a flyout from Yonder Alonso before striking out Yasmani Grandal. Alexi Amarista added a one-out, two-base hit in the third, but McAllister recovered with a strikeout against Everth Cabrera and a groundout from Smith. Nick Hundley doubled with two outs in the fifth, but he was stranded when Amarista flied out to right field.
"I was able to get ahead of hitters, and they were aggressive," McAllister said. "Being an aggressive team, if you're falling behind, that works in their favor, because they know you're probably going to be throwing a heater and they can jump right on it. So, if you get ahead and you're able to mix a little bit, it definitely helps out."
McAllister's showing served as a solid comeback from his first outing of the season. Facing the A's in the second game of a doubleheader on April 2, McAllister struggled with his fastball command, yielding three runs on six hits in four innings. McAllister walked four in that start and left after his pitch count reached 86.
This time, McAllister needed only 82 pitches to work through seven frames against San Diego. He registered a first-pitch strike to 20 of the 28 batters he faced and ended the day with 99 pitches thrown.
"You hear it said all the time," Francona said. "The fastball is the best pitch. When he's commanding his fastball, and then when he had the changeup to go with it, it made him really tough."
Amarista and Cabrera reached on consecutive singles with two outs in the eighth inning, convincing Francona to turn to setup man Cody Allen. McAllister received a standing ovation as he walked off the field, tipping his cap to the crowd.
"It's definitely a good feeling to know the fans have your back," McAllister said. "They did today, and it was great."
Allen then finished what the big righty started by striking out Smith to end the inning. Cleveland closer John Axford gave up a single and issued a walk in the ninth, but he held up his end of the bargain, escaping unscathed for his fourth save of the season.
Padres lefty Eric Stults did what he could to keep pace with McAllister, holding the Indians off the scoreboard for the first five innings. Cleveland threatened in the second -- loading the bases with one out -- but Stults got Mike Aviles to pop out and then induced an inning-ending groundout from David Murphy to escape the jam.
"He pitched a really good game," Francona said of Stults. "He can add and subtract. We had a chance in the second inning and didn't cash in. We had a chance to add on, and we didn't. Some of that, you tip your cap to the pitcher, because he did a really good job."
It was not until the sixth inning that San Diego flinched enough for the Tribe to pounce.
With one out, Nick Swisher pulled a pitch from Stults sharply up the third-base line, where Amarista made a slick back-handed grab to snare the grounder. The third baseman rifled the ball across the diamond, but it struck the dirt and evaded the glove of Alonso for an error, allowing Swisher to jog to second base.
One pitch later, Kipnis drove an offering from Stults deep to right-center-field and over the wall. It appeared as though the blast might stay in the outfield, but it carried just far enough to bounce over the top of the wall for a two-run home run -- the first long ball of the season for the All-Star second baseman.
"I left a pitch up," Stults said, "and he did what good hitters do."

Officially, the Texans say that receiver Andre Johnson is being evaluated for a concussion after absorbing a hard hit from Titans safety Bernard Pollard. Unofficially, Johnson most likely does.
The Texans, we're told, didn't make Johnson available to the media after the game, in accordance with league policy. League policy prevents players with concussions from being made available to the media after the game.
Ipso facto (I have no clue whether I'm using that correctly; I just like saying "ipso facto") Johnson has a concussion.
If he does, Johnson won't be able to practice without clearance from an independent neurologist. He'll then need separate clearance to play.
Ipso facto.

Chance for the Freshman to Shine at National Level
NEW HAVEN, Conn. — Freshman Lauren Miller of the Yale women's fencing team will head to Ohio State in Columbus, Ohio, for the Mar. 22-25 NCAA National Championship.
Miller will compete in the foil weapons division. She gained her berth at the National Championship after placing ninth place in foil at the Mar. 11 NCAA Northeast Regional Championship at Boston College in Chestnut Hill, Mass.
It was Miller's first NCAA tournament and what made her accomplishment all the more noteworthy was the fact she returned from injury around two weeks before the competition, according to junior captain Robyn Shaffer.
At the Regional Championship, Miller's record, combined with her overall performance through the dual-meet regular season, qualified her for the National Championship in eighth place among Northeast Region fencers.
Miller is one of four Yalies heading to Columbus for the weekend's NCAA National Championship — three members of the Yale men's fencing team round out the contingent of Bulldogs.
Report filed by James Lu '14, Yale Sports Publicity.
