A valid fishing license is required for anyone age 16 and over when angling for any species in Pennsylvania. A trout permit is also required to fish in stocked waters. The following Bucks County waterways are stocked with trout: • Delaware Canal (two sections – Upper Washington Crossing State Park and Lower Washington Crossing State Park downstream to Ferry Road in Morrisville); • East Branch Perkiomen Creek (Branch JAMES O’MALLEY Road Bridge (T-431) downstream through Sellersville) ; • Levittown Lake; Trout streams are stocked • Neshaminy Creek (two sections – Valley Road to Mill Road near Jamison, and from Bucks County Treasurer Kris Ballerini teamed up with volunteers and the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission to the dam at the causeway in Tyler State Park help stock the Delaware Canal ahead of trout season’s opening day on April 3. downstream to the bridge on Route 332); • Tohickon Creek (Dark Hollow Road downstream to mouth); and • Unami Creek (Milford Township Park down- stream to Trumbauersville Road (Route 4051).

  • Board Finalizes Support Staff Contract by Solomiya Syvyk News Editor
    Middle Schools grades 5-8 for 2015-16 year: 6-7 Music Awards: 12 French Students Pennsbury grading experience football game: policy: 5 10 Board finalizes support staff contract By Solomiya Syvyk News Editor After several months of deliberation, the Neshaminy Educational Support Professional Association (NESPA) approved a new four-year contract with the school district on Oct. 24. Negotiations and talks had been going on since May, as the previous agreement expired June 30. In order to minimize costs, the district referred to the primary idea of outsourcing, a process that is included in the finalized deal, which otherwise has largely remained the same compared to the former. Following approximately 100 members of NESPA vocalizing their concerns and petitioning for their jobs at a school board meeting in June, the contract was approved on Oct.28 with a vote of 8 to 1. “From a district perspective, the new contract will help alleviate some significant resources - close to $1.5M in operation cost - that we can use for educational priorities while improving efficiency from a management perspective. From an employee viewpoint, we worked in concert to insure that as few as possible current employees were impacted by the changes, while providing incentives for those that are considering retirement,” school board member Mark Shubin said. Up to 73 union jobs may be outsourced, with a total of 52 replaced from the categories of Transportation, Instructional, Custodial, and Non-Instructional Aides. Every bargaining unit or NESPA OUTSOURCING- Secretary Jacki Gimello and custodian Kevin Huckel (L to R) are members of NESPA, which recently negotiated a contract with the school board in which 73 jobs will be outsourced.

  • Ceramics at the First Baptist Church of America
    Ceramics at the First Baptist Church of America Chelsea Sokolow The First Baptist Church of America 75 North Main Street Providence, RI 02903 (401) 454-3418 The study of Ceramics is a valuable resource in historical archaeology. The examination of ceramic pieces can aid in dating a site, reveal information about trade and production, as well as provide insight into the social practices surrounding an archaeological site. The variations in style and material composition are linked the geographic origin, the production methods of ceramic artifacts, and are indicators of class status in a community. When a ceramic assemblage is created the first step is to identify the artifacts. The three main attributes from which ceramic pieces are identified consist of the paste, surface treatment, and decoration (in that order). The paste is the type of the clay from which the pieces is made. The surface treatment examines the manner in which the vessel has been covered or glazed. The decoration consists of the methods, motifs, designs, and colors used to decorate the piece. (FLMNH) In general, the quality of the ceramic is directly connected to the composition of the clay and the temperature at which it has been fired. As the availability of high-heat kilns and advanced technology grew during the 18th and 19th centuries, the presence of higher quality ceramics also increased. The higher the temperature at which a piece is fired the less porous it becomes, making it more functionally useful. Discovered at the First Baptist Church of America were various types of ceramics pieces including coarse earthenware, refined earthenware, stoneware, ironstone, and porcelain pieces.
