MCPS Planner Talks Overcrowding In Bethesda Schools
Housing trends in the Great Recession, not new apartment development, are what's behind surging enrollment numbers and over capacity schools in Bethesda's three school clusters, the Montgomery County Public Schools director of long range planning said Monday.
Bruce Crispell, who made a presentation and answered questions at a Western Montgomery County Citizens Advisory Board committee meeting, also said he did a survey of 3,632 high-rise and mid-rise units in downtown Bethesda in October and actually found fewer school-aged children than a Planning Department-generated formula would indicate.
Crispell, who spoke with us in November, said he found 74 elementary school-aged children attending MCPS schools, 43 middle school students and 54 high school students. That works out to a ratio of 20 elementary students per 1,000 units, well below the 42 elementary students per 1,000 units that Crispell and MCPS have assumed to determine which schools need additions and which clusters need boundary changes or new schools.
"I know the skepticism when I quote these rates. It seems awfully low," Crispell said. "But [these units] are expensive. When a project is using structured parking, the land is extremely valuable. That really raises the cost for that development and that project."
Many residents have expressed concern that MCPS is under-projecting enrollment growth, which they say leads to situations like the current one at overcrowded Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School. The school system is awaiting funding for a school addition that would be done in 2017, just 15 years after the entire school was modernized and enlarged.
Enrollment at the 1,665-student capacity school is projected to hit 2,099 by 2016. The addition would provide for a capacity of 2,400.
"This [Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School] cluster has been the most stable place in the county in terms of no boundary changes since the 80's and no enrollment growth of this magnitude," Crispell said. "But this was a sea change."
The sea change started in the economic collapse of 2008, Crispell said. Kids who previously went to private schools enrolled in MCPS, with a net of 700-800 students leaving private schools for public ones in the peak years of the recession. Last year, that number was down to a more manageable 200, Crispell said.
Crispell said full-day kindergarten, which the state required MCPS to install in 2006, also played a role in the large elementary school population boom in the area, as did less job mobility and fewer families moving out of the county because of it.
All nine B-CC cluster schools are over capacity, though Somerset Elementary School only by one student. Crispell distributed projections at the meeting that showed all but one of those schools would be under capacity by 2017 because of the anticipated building of 944-student capacity Bethesda-Chevy Chase Middle School and planned additions or modernizations for B-CC High School, Bethesda Elementary, North Chevy Chase Elementary, Rock Creek Forest Elementary and Rosemary Hills Elementary.
Some elementary school boundary changes, a process that can anger parents more than existing overcrowded schools, will also go into effect within the cluster.
The Walter Johnson High School is currently in better shape – Walter Johnson is under capacity this school year. But the numbers are projected to grow with just the approved projects of the White Flint Sector Plan. Crispell said a big concern is accommodating the development in White Flint, which would feed to the Walter Johnson cluster.
Crispell projected 9,800 total new housing units over what's expected to be a 30-year buildout of the new White Flint, enough to merit the inclusion of a new elementary school in the 2010 Sector Plan. Walter Johnson, with a capacity of 2,274, is expected to hit the 2,400-student mark in 2018 and the 2,500-student mark in 2022. A modernization was completed in the school in 2010 and a new wing was added in 2012.
Walt Whitman High School faces a similar number crunch. It is 90 students over its 1,828-student capacity now and is projected to hit 2,000 students in 2016. Thomas W. Pyle Middle School in the cluster is projected to hit 200 students over capacity by 2014 and Wood Acres Elementary School is 217 students over capacity this year. Planning for an addition to Whitman will begin next year and the completion of an addition at Bradley Hills Elementary will alleviate some enrollment stress at other schools.
Fritz Hirst, a committee member and member of the Rollingwood Citizens Association in Chevy Chase, asked Crispell about projecting new student population from the Chevy Chase Lake Sector Plan. Depending on the status of the Purple Line, development proposed for new zoning in that area could generate around 2,000 new housing units.
Crispell said MCPS can not provide input into land-use decisions. He only incorporates projected students from planned apartments once each individual project is approved.
Hirst suggested changing that policy to frontload some of that forecasting, especially in the case of major Sector Plan rewrites such as in Chevy Chase Lake. Opponents of certain aspects of the Chevy Chase Lake Plan approved by the Planning Board have argued too much development there will overburden the already overcrowded B-CC cluster.

Gobekli Tepe History Rewritten
Well over 20 years ago I watched our government murder 17 little children and their families at a church near Waco, supposedly to save them from an accused child molester. I was outraged. It was not the first or last time the government lied to us. 50 years ago I took an oath to defend the Constitution when I volunteered for Vietnam. That same government lied about the Gulf of Tonkin and 48,000 of my brothers died. The Press covered for the FBI and BATF and demonized a church. As my first club became the Bandidos and my second became the Hells Angels I knew the government lied. I did three things. I started my Free American Magazine which had national distribution, my radio show and the Militias. I was lumped into an anti-government category by Jewish anti-white propaganda organizations who used my name to try and frighten Americans to prevent me from exposing their tactics and their banking scams. I still do that two hours a day using my show. I did start the Militia in New Mexico in the office of the Governor, Gary Johnson. Hardly a terrorist plot. And although they were successful in closing down my magazine after an attempt on my life failed, I am still here doing the same show with new guests from all over the world. firstname.lastname@example.com www.freeamerican.com

Massachusetts woman sentenced in drunken driving fatality
Auricelli Braga pleaded guilty to killing Sara Escudero
A 32-year-old Stoughton woman has been sentenced to two years in jail after pleading guilty to killing a woman while driving drunk without a license last year.
Norfolk District Attorney Michael Morrissey said Auricelli Braga pleaded guilty Wednesday to motor vehicle homicide while operating under the influence and driving without a license. Another six months will be suspended during five years' supervised probation. Morrissey said Braga also faces federal immigration deportation proceedings after she completes her jail term.
Prosecutors said Braga's blood alcohol was .12 percent, one and a half times the legal limit, when she hit 64-year-old Sara Escudero of Canton.
Morrissey said Braga was driving home early on the morning of June 24 after being at a Boston night club and visiting a friend.
Nine members of Escudero's family were in court for the sentencing.

Hi Beth,
That's a pretty specialized request - I've posted a message on Facebook to our followers in Miami, so maybe something will come from that, but in case it doesn't, perhaps some tips on moderating groups might help?
With this in mind you might find this page useful:
http://www.bookbrowse.com/bookclubs/advice/index.cfm/fuseaction/moderating_meetings plus some of our other book club advice pages that you'll find linked from the top of that page.
Have any other visitors reading this experienced similar problems with their book club conversations going off course? If so, would be great if you could share tips on how you get things back on track again!

It's a problem that can happen in any group! Sometimes getting "off track" can really enhance the discussion and bring it to a deeper level. For the leader, it becomes a judgement call. More often it just winds up being a frustration for the group and the discussion rolls out of control. When that is the case I hear my self saying: that's interesting, but.... Or, getting back on topic....
As leader, I am not shy about keeping the discussion on track!
When everyone starts talking at the same time I let it go for maybe a minute -- then I say quite loudly: HEY! (silence falls quickly!) You are all leaving me out of the discussion -- I can't hear any of it!

It's been interesting watching the discussions develop in BookBrowse's new book club section as it has made me question what getting off track actually means. For example, one of the most popular topics in the discussion about "The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks" is "Do you always thoroughly read consent forms before signing them?" While in the discussion about "The Help", "Is racism inherent or taught?" has proved a hot topic.
I wonder whether your group would consider these sorts of conversations on or off topic? I think one could argue that they are off topic in the strictest sense because most of the responses are commenting on personal experiences/opinions rather than connecting these to events in the book; but I would argue that they are very much on topic in light of why many of us read (or at least I do) which is to use books to add to our experiences and test our own preconceptions.
What do you think?

MOSCOW - Lawyers for three members of the feminist punk group Pussy Riot are contesting their convictions in the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg.
Maria Alekhina, Yekaterina Samutsevich, and Natalia Tolokonnikova were sentenced to two years in prison for their irreverent "punk prayer" in Moscow's main cathedral last February against Vladimir Putin's return to Russian presidency. Samutsevich was later released on appeal.
The complaint filed Wednesday alleges the group's conviction violates four articles of the European Convention on Human Rights guaranteeing freedom of speech, the right to liberty and security, the prohibition of torture and the right to a fair trial.
The conviction on charges of "hooliganism motivated by religious hatred" has sparked global outrage, drawing attention to Russia's intolerance of dissent under Putin.

You know, after what happened the other night while I was watching Supernatural, I think I've finally made my peace with the hiatus. It's been well-documented that I am a wuss, so enjoying this show has always been a bit of a stretch for me (although Jared and Jensen have helped me overcome my phobias just enough to keep watching...hmmm, Supernatural as therapy. Who knew?)
Has anything weird ever happened to you while you were watching something spooky? To date, I've had two freakish coincidences. One was when a light on the show started to flicker, Sam and Dean gave each other the significant "a-ha, demon presence!" look and my power went out shortly therafter. But since I was watching TV during a major thunderstorm, the electrical outage wasn't exactly a mystery worthy of calling Bobby. Then there was the time I was watching the first season DVDs with my husband after the kids were in bed and supposed to be asleep. We were right at the beginning of "Home," where a single mom moves into the Winchester's old house. Almost simultaneously, the girl on the television told her mother that there's "something in my closet" and my OWN daughter showed up in our doorway blurting, "there's something in my closet." (I admit, that freaked me out enough that I made my husband go check because I wasn't about to!)
But here's my latest. (And while I'm sure someone with a background in how televisions and DVD players work could explain this scientifically, I cannot. Big coward that I am, I'm just glad I wasn't alone.) A girlfriend was over who has only seen a couple of episodes before, so of course I pulled out my DVDs. We'd been watching late into the night and everyone else in the house was asleep. We half-heartedly commented that we should probably turn it off because it was so late, but then we talked ourselves into one more episode. In the middle of the episode, the picture went wonky--first it was staticky, then it went completely green (which is a new one on me) although we could still hear Sam and Dean discussing that what they had on their hands was a ghost problem, which of course meant digging up the bones. So I stood up, told her I was sorry that we didn't get to finish the episode, but that it was probably for the best since we both had to be up in the morning. I popped out the DVD to put away and all of the sudden, Sam and Dean appeared on the television, digging up a body (no sound, but the picture was clear as day.) I looked from the DVD in my hand to my friend, who brightly announced, "Gotta go!" I was right on her heels, hitting the TV remote over my shoulder as I left.
I realize this isn't on par with, say, my couch levitating or Zuul the gatekeeper appearing in my fridge, but watching two people dig up a grave on my TV after I'd already removed the DVD was sufficiently bizarre enough that I think I'm ready for a break from watching creepy shows. Say, from now until nine p.m. on Friday, September 24...

It's been a very busy summer, and the past couple of months seem to have passed by in a flash. So why does it feel like it's been FOR-EV-ER since the Supernatural finale aired? I'm ready to see what happens in season six!
That said, I have found other obsessions to pass my time over the summer.
1. I believe it was Natalie who said she loved Haven. I know MJ has been watching it too. This is the best summer series I've seen this year. I love the characters, the setting, the weirdness of what's going on, the wondering what "the troubles" are.
2. Warehouse 13 (one of the creators of which is Jane Espenson, who has worked on many of my other favorites like Buffy, Battlestar Galactica, Caprica and Gilmore Girls) is just a hoot to watch. I love the concept that they protect some of history's most dangerous artifacts, and I like the twists they come up with -- like that H.G. Wells is a woman! Eddie McClintock, who plays Agent Pete Lattimer, is going to be at Dragon*Con, so I'm going to try to see him speak. His character is a riot. And I love the character of Claudia Donovan, the essence of geeky cool.
3. I got a newer model TiVo which allows me to stream from my Netflix account. Every one in awhile I find a show that so sucks me in that I go on a crazy viewing binge because I absolutely MUST know what happens next. Though it's not supernatural/paranormal in nature, over this past weekend I started watching Spartacus: Blood and Sand and watched the entire first season in three days. I can't wait for season 2, which won't be out until sometime next year! Wah! There's fighting (I'm a chick who likes a good battle movie), lots of hot gladiators (hello, Spartacus and Crixus, I'm looking at you), that underdog element I so love, and a forbidden love story to root for. I'll just have to satisfy myself with fan vids until new episodes become available on Netflix.
4. Counting down the days until Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins comes out. This is the final book in the trilogy that began with The Hunger Games, and I can barely wait to see how it all turns out. And which boy Katniss will choose. :) Only two more weeks to wait.
5. Waiting for my own book, Winter Longing, to hit store shelves, which happens tomorrow. I've been fortunate to get some good reviews, including an exciting one in Publishers Weekly.
6. Looking forward to Dragon*Con. I'm having a costume made. I'm going to be dressing as Kahlen Amnell from Legend of the Seeker.
How have you been passing your Supernatural-less months?

In The Ausiello Files CW report from the recent press tour, Dawn Ostroff says she hopes Supernatural will go on for more than one more season.
Various sources, including here announce Sebastian Roché (Fringe) as a guest star on Supernatural. (He tweeted that he was in Vancouver doing the show.)
Wanna wallow in envy? Check out the teaser trailer for "Supernatural: The Animation" at Warner Bros.' Japanese site for the project. Click the "Trailer" box on the right. They did a great job with Sam and Dean! I wish this wasn't only being released in Japan...
Portrait Magazine (scroll down a little and look on the right, "September Cover") has a poll to see who we want featured on the September cover. Tom Welling is way ahead of Jensen Ackles, and Jared Padalecki doesn't seem to have a chance. Voting goes to August 15.
While casing some Torchwood news, I discovered that John Shiban, writer for such great Supernatural episodes as "Tall Tales" and "Folsom Prison Blues," will be writing some Torchwood eps in the upcoming season.
Check out Matt Cohen's Playboy Fragrances ad campaign. Click to play, then click "Cast of Characters" to watch him talk about seduction. :) (Safe for work!)
Zap2it has an in-depth article about Jason Manns and how his friendship with Jensen has affected his music and movie career. No new info for those of us who follow Jason for his own sake, but some interesting quotes nonetheless. :)
We'll close with a cute vid of Jim, Misha, and Jensen:

There are private jets, and then there are Gulfstreams.
In an opaque world filled with eight-figure price tags and anonymous clients, Gulfstream has managed to transcend the business-aviation industry and become a pop-culture icon.
Companies such as Bombardier, Embraer, and Cessna all build world-class business jets, but none have become engrained in pop culture quite like Gulfstream and its G-series jets. After all, no other business-jet company has been the subject of a pop song that hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to sample the Gulfstream experience when the airplane maker invited me and several other journalists to visit the company's headquarters in Savannah, Georgia. Our chariot for this trip was none other than a new Gulfstream G550, worth a cool $61.5 million. Business Insider provided financial compensation to Gulfstream for the trip.

"I never want to stay in a motel again," said Gerry. "We started out telling people we were staying in a hotel, and it was great. Then, as time went on, it became a motel, and then it became a FEMA motel."
Gerry and his wife are just one of 70 families staying at the Best Western Mill River Manor in Rockville Centre thanks to the Federal Emergency Management Agency's Transitional Sheltering Assistance Program, funding for which is set to end on Jan. 26. Gerry, a resident of Oceanside, gave only his first name in the interest of protecting his home, which has been unoccupied since Hurricane Sandy ravaged the area on Oct. 29.
Mike, a resident of Island Park who also requested anonymity, joined Gerry in the hotel lobby last Thursday to watch a New York Knicks game. The two said that watching sports together, and with other husbands staying at the hotel, while their wives have that time to unwind in their rooms, gives them a chance to escape the realities of post-Sandy life for a few hours.
"We relieve our tension through football, basketball, here in the lobby," Mike said. "When you come from a house, it's hard to stay in one room with a cat, a wife and a husband."
Both men said that they haven't received much money from their insurance companies to cover the repairs to their homes. Gerry said that what his insurer has offered his family is just a fraction of the total cost, and Mike said that the $17,000 he received as startup money was spent in the first day.
"All the money I've been putting into my house and my credit card," Mike said. "And everything is pretty much maxed out. My credit cards are running out … my retirement savings are running out."
Gerry added, "This is not what I anticipated as saving for a rainy day."
Adding to their financial challenges, Mike said, his wife had lost her job working for a doctor in Long Beach as a result of the storm, and both men said that they need to be around their houses almost every day to oversee the repairs.
"I wish my house was condemned," Mike said. "It would have been easier if it was condemned rather than destroyed. I wish it would have burned down."

On March 21, 2013, the Tee To Table team played in the Florida's Natural Charity Classic ProAm.
Nicole Vandermade, a first year tour professional, was picked to play with Tee To Table team.
Nicole displayed a great deal of patience while playing with us "out of season golfers" that day and did a great job in carrying us through a majority of the day.
The 2013 season is Nicole's first full season the Symetra Tour after graduating from the University of Texas in 2012 with a degree in Kinesiology.
As a former Texas Longhorn golfer, one of my first questions was if she knew Jordan Spieth, another Texas Longhorn golfer making his way in the PGA this year.
Nicole had some great things to say about Jordan and wished him well in the PGA.
Nicole spends her time in the Orlando area throughout the year and finds time to visit home in Canada when she can.
She has found that the Orlando area is the place to train and spend time with Sean Foley working on her game when she can.
After getting to know Nicole throughout the day, I believe she will be one to watch throughout the season and in the future.
Some interesting statistics:
- Winner of four events on the amateur circuit.
- Competed twice in the LPGA CN Canadian Women's Open (2009, 2011).
- Competed in the 2010 U.S. Women's Open Championship.
- Competed in three British Amateur Championships (2009-2011).
- Recorded seven top-10 finishes in collegiate play while at the University of Texas.
- Finished tied for 10th at the 2009 Big 12 Women's Golf Championship.
- Named to the 2009 Big 12 Women's Golf Championship All-Tournament Team.
- Winner of the 2011 Betsy Rawls Longhorn Invitational.

Tee Time with Nicole:
Deanna: Describe what it was like playing college golf and how has it prepared you for today?
Nicole: Playing college golf was an absolute blast. I would not trade the experiences, friendships, and lessons learned during that time for anything in the world. Coming from a small town in Canada, living in a big city Austin, TX was quite a change for me.
I was introduced to Mexican food (which is now a staple in my diet- don't know how I lived without it) and also had to learn how to minimize my road rage during rush hour traffic (I used to think heavy traffic was when it took an extra 5 minutes to get across town).
I grew up playing several different team sports, so playing team golf in college was a very natural feeling for me.
I had a great time with all of my team mates and have so many great memories.
Winning with Big 12 championship my junior year was probably the biggest highlight. However, being a collegiate athlete is about so much more than just playing your sport. It is about time management, self-growth, learning how to deal with people, how to keep yourself healthy, among other things.
The skills I learned while in college have really helped me since I turned pro.
Deanna: What are your short term goals?
-Maintain an under par scoring average
-Win multiple Symetra Tour events in 2013
-Win Symetra Tour money list
-Gain full status on LPGA Tour for 2014 season
-Play in the CN Canadian Women's Open or Manulife Classic in 2013
Deanna: What is your favorite food? Of course, I have to bring the food element in.
Nicole: I have always been a lover of food, so it is really hard for me to narrow down what I would say my favorite food
would actually be.
My favorite types of food are Italian, Mexican, and Thai.
My favorite dishes are veal picatta, chicken fajitas, and Pad Thai.
Deanna: How do you believe woman's golf has changed?
Nicole: I think that women are more competitive and are driven to be the best. A big change in women's golf and women's athletics in general came when Title IX was introduced (equal funding for both men's and women's sports in college). This was a huge deal for women's athletics because it forced many schools to start up women's sports teams.
This gave more women the opportunity to pursue their athletic career after high school and was instrumental in helping women's athletics get to the point it is today.
Deanna: What's your day-to-day life like during the season? How is it different during the off-season?
Nicole: During the season day-to-day life is pretty structured.
The week starts by driving to the city where ever the tournament happens to be that week and check in with the host family I am staying with. The next couple days I am busy playing the golf course, getting used to the course conditions, and making final tune ups in my game. There is usually a pro-am and dinner one night of the week as well. Once the tournament rounds come I trust the work I have put into my game and try to just go out there and play.
When I am not in tournaments I spend most of my time at my home course working on my game.
This could mean playing some competitive matches against my friends to simulate the pressures of tournament golf, or dropping a few balls in the trees to practice shot making, or keeping the driver in the bag to work on my longer irons and getting comfortable hitting my 3 wood and hybrid off the tee.
When I do head to the practice range, I spend the most amount of time working on fundamentals like alignment, posture, and ball position.
This fall has really been my "first true off season", as previous years I was in school and never really had an "off season."
This past fall, I looked back at the year and spoke with my coach about what I struggled most with and what I need to improve on to come back as a more complete player. After doing this review, I developed a game plan to follow. I spent most of my time working on technique and mechanics with my coach and making the changes feel natural. This means I spent most of my time practicing, and not a whole lot playing.
I also spent 4-5 days a week in the gym working to improve my fitness. I also had the opportunity to play some pick-up basketball, tennis and got together with some friends that I normally would not have time to see.
Deanna: What is your favorite course to play?
Nicole: My home course Brantford Golf and Country Club and Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland are tied for my favorite courses.
Deanna: What golf tips do you have for ladies of all playing levels?
Nicole: Have fun.
Try spending a little time on the practice range.
Set small goals for yourself (like make a certain amount of birdies a round, or hit a certain number of greens) and focus on reaching those goals. Once you attain the goals, keep setting new ones.
Golf is about challenging yourself and having fun while doing it!

The Palestinian minister in charge of the struggle against the Israeli separation wall and settlements died Wednesday shortly after a physical confrontation with Israeli soldiers in a village just outside of Ramallah.
Witnesses told the Palestine Monitor they saw an officer from the Border Police head-butt Minister Ziad Abu Ein before striking him in the chest. Others said Abu Ein was hit the butt end of a rifle and kicked.
Abu Ein was taking part in a symbolic olive tree planting action, part of a coordinated struggle of the Palestinian villages of Turmusiya and Al Mugheir against the illegal settlement outpost of Adei Ad, which has stolen vital farming land from both.
Abu Ein and a group of nearly 100 demonstrators were confronted by a group of nearly 30 Israeli soldiers and border police. An image published by Reuters news agency shows a Border Policemen grasping Abu Ein by the neck. Minutes after the confrontation, the minister reportedly fell to the ground clasping his chest. He died on the way to the hospital.
It is not yet clear what caused his death.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas described the attack as "a barbaric act which we cannot be silent about or accept." Abbas announced three days of national mourning, threatening to cancel the Palestinian Authority's security coordination with Israel. He said he would take "necessary steps" after an investigation into Abu Ein's death is carried out.
Shortly before his death, Abu Ein spoke to a group of television reporters while standing amidst a group of Israeli soldiers.
"This is the terrorism of the occupation, this is a terrorist army, practicing its terrorism on the Palestinian people," he told the official Palestine TV. "We came to plant trees on Palestinian land, and they launch into an attack on us from the first moment. Nobody threw a single stone."
Stores and restaurants around Ramallah closed Wednesday afternoon in protest over the minister's death.

NEW YORK -- It may not qualify as a revolution, but after years of relentless bad news in the ratings, NBC has opened the new television season with some positive signs.
The network has been in fourth place in the ratings for eight straight years. Through the first two weeks of the new TV season, it is the only one of the top four broadcast networks to see its viewership increase compared with last year, according to Nielsen, the company that measures television audience.
Sunday night football leads the way, as is often the case for NBC. "The Voice" was the most-watched reality show last week, beating veterans like "Dancing With the Stars," "Survivor" and "The Amazing Race." The thriller "Revolution," heavily promoted during the Olympics, has opened the season as NBC's top scripted show.
While third in the ratings race last week, NBC won among viewers ages 18-to-49, the demographic where it concentrates its business.
"They're off to an encouraging start," said Brad Adgate, a television analyst for Horizon Media.
They're nowhere near hits, but new NBC comedies like "Go On" and "Guys With Kids" already reach a larger audience than critically-praised cult favorites "The Office" and "30 Rock." New management at NBC views some of those older comedies as niche players, and wants shows that will appeal to more people.
Once the crown jewel of the network's comedy lineup, the Emmy-winning "30 Rock" opened its final season with less than 3.5 million viewers. Only Brian Williams' "Rock Center" newsmagazine and the comedy "Up All Night" had smaller audiences for NBC.
NBC said it was delaying the scheduled Oct. 19th season debuts of the comedies "Whitney" and "Community." The network said it wants to concentrate its promotion on other shows and see more about how the season shakes out before rescheduling them, and that the delay is not a sign that it is losing faith in the comedies.
CBS was the most-watched network last week, with "NCIS" beating pro football as the most popular program.
CBS averaged 10.4 million viewers for the week in prime time (6.6 rating, 11 share). ABC was second with 7.7 million (5.0, 8), NBC had 7.5 million (4.7, 8), Fox had 5.3 million (3.2, 5), the CW and ION Television both had 1 million (both 0.7, 1).
Among the Spanish-language networks, Univision led with an average of 3.5 million viewers (1.9, 3), Telemundo had 1.1 million (0.6, 1), TeleFutura had 580,000 (0.2, 1), Estrella had 150,000 and Azteca had 80,000 (both 0.1, 0).
NBC's "Nightly News" topped the evening newscasts with an average of 7.7 million viewers (5.3, 10). ABC's "World News" was second with 7.3 million (5.0, 10) and the "CBS Evening News" had 5.7 million viewers (4.0, 8).
A ratings point represents 1,147,000 households, or 1 percent of the nation's estimated 114.7 million TV homes. The share is the percentage of in-use televisions tuned to a given show.
For the week of Oct. 1-7, the top 10 shows, their networks and viewerships: "NCIS," CBS, 18.87 million; NFL Football: San Diego vs. New Orleans, NBC, 18.31 million; "60 Minutes," CBS, 15.96 million; "The Big Bang Theory," CBS, 15.18 million; "NCIS: Los Angeles," CBS, 14.91 million; "Person of Interest," CBS, 14.58 million; "Sunday Night NFL Pre-Kick," NBC, 13.75 million; "The Voice," NBC, 12.55 million; "Dancing With the Stars," ABC, 12.38 million; "Two and a Half Men," CBS, 12.33 million.
ABC is owned by The Walt Disney Co. CBS is owned by CBS Corp. CW is a joint venture of Warner Bros. Entertainment and CBS Corp. Fox and My Network TV are units of News Corp. NBC and Telemundo are owned by Comcast Corp. ION Television is owned by ION Media Networks. TeleFutura is a division of Univision. Azteca America is a wholly owned subsidiary of TV Azteca S.A. de C.V.

First National Bank in Mt. Washington robbed
Last Thursday afternoon, February 28, police were called to the First National Bank on Wyoming Street in Mount Washington for a report of a robbery.
Police spoke with the security guard who reported two black men entered the bank dressed in all black clothing. One suspect approached him carrying a firearm and told him to "get to the ground."
The security officer complied with the demand and the suspect robbed him of his money.
A bank employee who reported the suspect actor went from teller window to teller window demanding money. The employees complied putting an undisclosed amount of cash in a black bag with stitching on it.
The suspects ran out of the bank in an unknown direction.
The suspects were described as small black men with thin builds: 5'10", 150 pounds, dark complexion, wearing a black hoodie sweatshirt, black jacket, black pants, black ski mask, black gloves and a white, blue and red plaid shirt; and, 5'8", 160 pounds, black hoodie sweatshirt and black jeans.
Patrol units did a perimeter search but didn't see the suspects. No one was reported injured during the robbery.
Anyone with information regarding this incident or can identify the suspect in the photo is asked to contact the Pittsburgh Police Robbery Squad at 412-323-7151. Callers may remain anonymous.

Overtime myths can circulate in any line of work, and the restaurant industry is no exception. Some of the most prevalent myths deal with wages and overtime. As an employer, it is vital that you don't fall for these myths because they could lead to unnecessary disputes, lawsuits or compliance penalties.
An Employee Can Waive the Right to Overtime
Sometimes employers get the idea that if an employee is willing to work longer hours and waive overtime, it works out well for both of them. However, under the FLSA (Fair Labor Standards Act) , when an employee who is not an exempt employee (not a manager, executive, etc.) works overtime (over 40 hours in a workweek), employers must pay the employee for overtime. A workweek can begin or end on any day that the employer designates.
In fact, an employee, who waived overtime, actually has the legal right to turn around and sue the employer for overtime pay.
An Employer Can Compensate an Employer in Other Ways than Paying Overtime
Another myth is that an employer can compensate an employee who works more than 40 hours by giving the employee extra time off called compensatory time or "comp time." Employers cannot compensate in ways other than paying overtime. The FLSA requires overtime work to be paid at a rate of not less than one and a half times the employee's regular pay rate.
An Employer Does Not Have to Pay Overtime for Unauthorized Overtime Work
It can be frustrating for employers who instruct their employees not to work over 40 hours and discover that unauthorized work was done. Employers may feel justified in not paying the employee overtime. However, overtime work must be paid, whether it was authorized or not. Employers can devise other ways to penalize employees who work unauthorized over their 40 hours but they cannot deny them overtime pay.
Legal Representation for Employers
When you have questions about overtime, wage and hour or other employment issues, it is wise to consult with an experienced employment law defense attorney. Stephen Hans & Associates has assisted employers for more than two decades with employment issues.

Not much done this weekend. I had been meaning to bathe the boy for several weeks now; I finally got around to giving doggie a bath today.
I added a pull handle to the second gate, and finished staining whatever wasn't stained. We've had sporadic rains over the past week so no chance of having the staining done any earlier. One day I would like to rework that second gate and get it to look better.
It's been crazy busy for me at work, mainly because I haven't been able to make my schedule due to lack of experience which then leads to false starts and re-work. So I do what I call thrashing about: a lot energy and effort, but nothing to show for it.
This coming up week, I will challenge myself to show up at work an hour earlier than my usual. (My usual is rather late.) I cannot begin to tell you how big a challenge this is for me. I am a very deep sleeper. In fact, I am often groggy at random times throughout the day. I can and have slept through my alarm clock. At one time I had two alarm clocks ... that was interrupted after hurricane Ike came through and resulted in the house being topsy turvy. My current alarm clock is an old cell phone. I have to vary the tones every so often so that my sleeping brain doesn't adapt to it. Anyhow, y'all wish me luck.

Dog food got really expensive.
I used to be able to get an actual 40 lb. bag of dog food for just under $40. Then they maintained the price and dropped the quantity (to maybe 34 lbs.--I can't recall) so that I'd pay the same amount of money for less food.
Last week I bought the biggest bag - now 28 lbs. for $48 (almost $52 after taxes).
That's 30% reduction in quantity plus 20% increase in price ... sounds like dog food went up 50%.
What if an emplyee goes to the boss and said, "May I have 20% salary raise and drop my productivity by 30%?" But then again, that might be happening to some employers already over the course of history.
I'd have to seriously rethink this food thing. It wasn't intended to be a luxury. It was an investment in the dog's health, to hopefully reduce the risk of a larger vet bill. Right now the cost of flea treatment and heartworm prevention - for a big dog - is already a lot of money, in the sense that you'd best save up for it.

second gate
Sunday, August 16, 2009
Success proves elusive on the second gate. Right now it is functional; the gate opens and closes and latches. To clear the slope, I decided to leave a huge gap at the bottom of the gate. The gap is conveniently the rot board. I made the rot board removeable. Screw eyes on the posts support square bend hooks on the rot board. The gate has to be opened wide to allow the board to be lifted off the hooks on the hinge side.
Right now the gate is out of plane with the latch post. The gate sticks out at the top and sticks in at the bottom. I'm guessing that if I loosen the frame screws and reshape the frame, I might can get the gate to line up better. It's just a guess. I may have to loosen the screws on the pickets too. Maybe some weekend when I have the time, I will experiment. There is still some staining left to do. I'm also not too happy with the uneven gap at the bottom of the gate, but oh well. Other things require my attention.
Since this is a secondary gate, I made no provisions to be able to open it from the outside. This time I did not make the hinges plumb but opted to allow them to follow the post. By luck, the weight of the gate swings it open on its own when unlatched. This is a good thing, reducing the likelihood that the gate would accidentally swing closed when in use and thereby locking you out. I used three butt hinges (like you see on your doors in the house) instead of gate T-hinges so that they wouldn't be as obvious. They squeak a little, telling me that they aren't lined up perfectly. But it's probably okay; I can open and close the gate with little effort.

fence saga continues
Tuesday, August 04, 2009
I've seen whole fences go up in two days: first day all the posts are set, second day everything else. They look good too, all lined up and straight.
In my case, it's been more than a month and I still haven't finished the little section of fence I'm working on. I do stain all my wood before I put them up, and that takes time. Digging the new holes was definitely a challenge. Yesterday I finally took down the old section of fence that the new construction replaces.
Yes, there is a gap between the new fence side and the old corner post. That's because I wanted my fence span to be around 6 feet. I'll deal with that later.
Next up is the gate. I'm still mulling it over. The section of fence is on a slope. As the gate opens, it has to clear higher ground. I can either leave a large gap at the bottom, enough to clear the higher ground, or do something else.

ACCESS has unveiled the next major version of its Linux-based mobile software platform. The ACCESS Linux Platform (ALP) 3.0 brings a significant user interface overhaul with support for rich visual effects. It also boosts interoperability by delivering LiMo compliance.
ALP was developed by PalmSource, a software company that split from Palm in 2003 and was subsequently acquired by ACCESS in 2005. ALP's PalmSource legacy makes it sort of a spiritual successor to the original PalmOS, but it's important to note that ACCESS is not related to Palm and that ALP is not related in any way to the Linux-based platform that Palm is developing today.
Hardware advancements and more powerful chips, such as TI's OMAP3 series, make it possible to create interactive user interfaces that support sophisticated visual effects and animation. ALP's new user interface takes advantage of these next-generation mobile hardware capabilities and OpenGL ES to facilitate richer interaction. It uses the Clutter toolkit, a GObject-based scenegraph system that is also used by Nokia's Maemo platform and Intel's Moblin platform.
ALP 3.0 is designed with clean separation between application logic and presentation so that carriers and handset makers can make extensive customizations to the look and feel of the platform.
LiMo compliance is also another major improvement in the new version of ALP. LiMo is a coalition of prominent software vendors, handset makers, and mobile carriers that are collaborating to develop interoperable Linux-based platforms for smartphones and other handheld devices. LiMo provides its own preintegrated platform stack and also provides a baseline for interoperability between derivative third-party platforms. ACCESS has contributed a significant number of components to the LiMo stack. ALP 3.0 is the first version of ALP that passes LiMo's certification test.
"We remain committed to setting the standard for mobile Linux devices, and ACCESS Linux Platform v3.0 is the next step in our technology evolution," said ACCESS co-CEO Tomihisa Kamada in a statement. "The flexibility, modularity and openness of Linux make it ideal for mobile operators to deliver customized services--and our ACCESS Linux Platform v3.0 and ACCESS Linux Platform mini products make this customization easy to develop and market to consumers."
When ALP first emerged from PalmSource several years ago, the mobile platform landscape was very different. Back then, the preintegrated Linux options were pretty limited, Symbian was still a proprietary operating system, and Apple hadn't yet launched the iPhone. Today, there are a growing number of open source mobile options that can be used without licensing costs. User expectations have also been entirely redefined by the iPhone user experience, which has put enormous competitive pressure on conventional platform vendors.
To play a major role in the rapidly growing smartphone market, ACCESS will have to produce a top-notch software platform. ALP 3.0 is a big step in that direction and the user interface improvements are definitely impressive.

Homeless woman set on fire in Los Angeles as she sleeps on bench
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- For more than 10 years, the homeless woman slept on the same plastic bus stop bench at a busy intersection in the San Fernando Valley, no matter how cold it was or if it was raining.
The 67-year-old, described by one church volunteer who saw her regularly as the "sweetest lady on the street," was nestled in her regular spot early Thursday when the unthinkable happened: A man came out of a nearby drug store, doused her with a flammable liquid and set her ablaze.
She was taken to a hospital, where she was listed in critical condition.
Witness Erickson Ipina called 911, and police arrested Dennis Petillo, 24, a short time later. He was booked for investigation of attempted murder and was held on $500,000 bail. It wasn't immediately known if he had retained an attorney.
"He just poured it all over the old lady," Ipina told reporters at the scene. "Then he threw the match on her and started running."
Police provided no possible motive and released no details on Petillo. The victim's name also was withheld.
LAPD Deputy Chief Kirk Albanese told the Los Angeles Times it was unclear whether Petillo spoke to the woman before he allegedly set her ablaze.
"There was no incident or dispute or clear motivation for this horrific attack. He did not know his victim. It defies explanation," Albanese said. "He is not of sound mind. ... The motive is mental illness."
The attack shocked nearby residents, and later Thursday about a dozen people held vigil around the charred bench, urging motorists to honk their horns in support of homeless rights. One sign placed on the bench read, "Our Prayers to Violet," believed to be the victim's first name.
Tej Deol, 31, who resides at a nearby sober living house, said the woman made the bench her home and often could be found sleeping there after sundown. He said he saw her Christmas Eve, getting ready to eat some soup.
"I told her, 'Merry Christmas and happy New Year,' and she said she was doing good," Deol said. "She was so kind. She was happy to have someone talk to her."
Thursday's incident was at least the third in Los Angeles County since October where people were set on fire.
Last week, a 55-year-old man was seriously injured when he was torched as he slept outside a doughnut shop in Norwalk. Two months earlier, Long Beach police said Jacob Timothy Lagarde, 27, threw a lit Molotov cocktail at a man who had been waiting for his father outside a store. Lagarde has since been charged with attempted murder and five other counts.
Los Angeles police are investigating whether Petillo might be tied to any other similar crimes, but at this point detectives don't believe he is, Cmdr. Andrew Smith said.
As the number of flowers and candles around the scorched bench grew Thursday, people who knew the victim tried to comprehend why a woman who seemed so benign could be so viciously attacked.
Robert Wyneken, 75, who volunteers at a nearby church that serves meals for the less than fortunate, called Violet the "sweetest lady on the street." He said she was quiet, independent and resourceful.
Wyneken said she supported herself by recycling cans and didn't like to panhandle. He said there were efforts to get her housing and in contact with family, but she wouldn't have it.
"I just think she had something in her life where she wanted to be alone," he said. "She didn't want to be a burden to anybody."
Wyneken, Deol and others said they were deeply troubled by what had happened at the bus stop.
"The guy who did this should spend the rest of his life in jail," Deol said.
Steve Williams, 62, who identified himself as a homeless veteran, said he is aware of the dangers of sleeping on the street but that it's difficult to find space at nearby shelters, especially at this time of year.
"We are all human. No one should be treated like that," he said.

A warning: this week the number of wicked new sounds is in inverse proportion to the number of mangled analogies used to describe them. All this means is that there is quite a lot to get giddy about.
Single of the Week!
Sad Day For Puppets - 'Sorrow, Sorrow' (Sonic Cathedral)
I will not lie, it is easy to become disheartened and not a little bored when you have been sent free records for heaps and ages and they still will insist on arriving at your house with words like 'SORROW' written on them - twice - in black, capped alphabets. And it's not like Indie isn't trying, it's done its hair and it is wearing a nice winter coat that makes it look all handsome. 'Hi, can I come in?' it salvos - but you have the door on the chain; stubble-chopped Pop is in the dining room with its boots on the table, it is drinking Cinzano and eating all your peanuts one at a time, flicking them up in the air and catching them in its flushed and rashy mouth. 'Do me a favour, love,' it bellows from its perch, 'Whajoowanna havvim rand ere fowar?' And it would nearly be right - I mean, 'SORROW, SORROW' is a fine title when misery is your bedfellow, boss and brethren, but sometimes the world isn't like that. Sometimes it is made from blindingly primary yellow roses and buttered white, hot toast for every - snatched - repast.
However - and how lucky for we - 'Sorrow, Sorrow' is not a wallow; it does not want to drag us through hedges leafed with torment, and it does not want to show us the first edition Camus it once bought in a Parisian back alleyway. Because even though it wants to sing us a song about trying and failing to get rid of its demons, it wants to make said song sound like angels; angels that are dipped in honey, the sort of honey that unlocks locks.
The door swings, Indie smiles. 'Pop darling, I think it's best if you go.'
Toro Y Moi - 'Still Sound' (Carpark)
Having wisely dispensed with the waft, Toro Y Moi is backbackBACK this week and he is bringing the bass with him like he had it in his pocket all along; the sly old dog. In many ways, this is the bounciest of toyshop balls made manifest, with a bassline of irresistible vim and verve providing a sturdy climbing-frame for all the noodle to lark about on and hang off of with one arm. All you need to know is that it is lush to hear sounds like this from one like him, it seems to indicate there is something in the gameplan about racking up points by demonstrating he has range; and that not all chill-some, girly-boy vocals need to be backed or accessorized with cascading rainbow reverb and foggy production and kaleido-synths. Well done Toro Y Moi, you have made us a funk workout! We didn't know you had it in you but it is all very hurrah.
Young The Giant - 'Apartment' (Young & Lost Club)
Young The Giant's lead singing man has one of those voices I am afraid to say I find impossible to resist, there is a lot of tasteful yearn going on. And though I hate to make a point of saying anything is beautifully composed or recorded, 'Apartment' really is, it has FM written all over it but it stops short of ANFEM or EPIC because that would be dread, I couldn't forgive it. Big Indie like this often gets overlooked for being comfortable enough in its own skin to give you all its bulged arteries with both barrels – a mixed metaphor I make no apologies for because I like their single, I would play it in a CAR and me and my best girlpals would sing it LOUD even as our boypanions were reaching for their Kraut compilations and thereby making us wonder a) why we brung them in the first place and b) if we can ditch them at Newport Pagnell.
Visions of Trees - 'Sometimes It Kills' (Moshi Moshi)
Visions of Trees' videothing is mega modern, it has concrete hoodlums and well bad drugs and fights and that. I think this is a bit of a shame because 'Sometimes It Kills' is accomplished and wrinkle-free graceful pop that doesn't upset any horses but isn't any less boring for its breathy meandering. Hopefully the title does not refer to a doomed romance in which someone got themselves deaded by trying to have Too Much Fun in an unorthodox and illegal fashion - because that would lend this the air of a needy soap opera when Visions of Trees don't sound like they really need those kind of gimmicks. In the end, this is not a record that will make anyone say 'When I heard 'Sometimes It Kills' in 2011, my life changed irrevocably and forever,' but I suspect I may be a bit greedy in expecting every single seven to do this.
Okkervil River - 'Mermaid' (Ltd 12" on Jagjaguwar)
Okkervil River do not believe in neat starts – I mean, why start a song with a laser-sighted intro when you can spend at least thirty seconds tuning up and making cursory plonks at instruments because you are a REAL BAND. And though 'Mermaid' is not as fizzy as a fillum with Darryl Hannah and Tom Hanks in it; and despite my aversion for ack-making music this week, lord only knows 'Mermaid' is darned affecting. In tenor, it is not unlike Smog's absolutely tremendous 'Vessel in Vain', so do be warned, this is almost guaranteed to put you in a ponderous mard of pondering ponder. But a very classy mard all the same. I think it is really and actually a song about pulling a dead lady out of some water. OH SWEET JESUS OKKERVIL RIVER, JUST NOT TODAY, ALRIGHT? I MEAN, IT'S MONDAY.
Young Magic - 'You With Air' (Carpark)
Sometimes you walk into a room and it is all you can do to keep up forward momentum, please not this, not all these messy people, not now, Dog. 'You With Air' is a bit like that, it is gloopy and treacly and there are children in a playground playing high-spirited, kiss-based chasing games as they try to work out what the point of men and women and bothtogether is. Young Magic is dead set on stopping you from thinking about anything else while you listen to his single, he is absolutely determined you look into his eyes and his alone - and the whole excursion is furious, intoxicating. Mostly it is the boom of the synths that have had all their plastic stripped away; his keyboards are made of wire wool, I think. To listen to this is not unlike putting plugs made of bumble bees into your ear canal; it is sinister, furry, too unsettling to be cute but overall a strange and heady pleasure. Ace.
Cold Mailman - 'Pull Yourself Together And Fall In Love With Me' (Lazy Acre Records)
Cold Mailman's People wrote to me with a plea for romance, they are absolutely sure this is the song the people of indie should send to their dearhearts if they really want to win them next week. So while everyone else is playing Competitive Couples in vile Pizza Express-o-likes up and down the land of Britayne, maybe you could be the dude who proffers this, wrapped in the finest ribbon you can purloin from Lewises, and accompanied by a postcard that is either kitschily amusing or romantically old - because when something is well old that automatically makes it good. I always think hedging your bets is a good idea, so a Magnetic Fields lyric with a slight prickly double meaning could serve you well here. As for the single, I am happy to report that it is – all smart-arsery aside – the softest of peaches, being a deftly written twinkle of a pop tune that should convince the hardest of hearts. I am also quite smit with the idea of any song whose central tenet 'Fall in love with me, right' is given in the form of a polite command. I have never taken well to being told off or bossed about - but when it sounds this damnably romantic, I hardly mind at all. Delightful.
Wendy is on Twitter, here. This week she has been mostly formulating an unpublishable treatise on Age of Adz - the general thrust of which seems to be that Sufjan Stevens finally made it because he finally had a proper shag. Vulgar.

Inner Top Interview do's and don'ts
The Do's
- Do ensure that you have the chronology of your career from leaving High School to your current role. If you have gaps in your career then state the dates and the situation. We understand that things happen in people's lives over which they have no control (and if you chose to have a three year sabbatical in a tropical paradise then we are, frankly, quite envious)
- Do have a brief CV with everything laid out clearly and concisely over three to four pages and then have a second document where you flesh it out with more detail, particularly in your more recent roles
- In the fuller document do demonstrate the breadth of your experience but be concise, the longer CV should ideally not be more than six pages long
- Do think about the achievements you have had during your career and provide a concise and meaningful list of bulleted points
- Do provide an idea of the scale of your staff and financial responsibility in each role
- Do use Microsoft Word as the document format (if we have to grapple for fifteen minutes with a document that defiantly refuses to open without the intervention of the IT department, it does not make for a good start to our relationship with you)
- Do leave off a front page with your name on it. We know that everyone does it and yes, it does look nice, but it is unnecessary. If just a few trees are saved every year by us not having to print that one unnecessary page, it will have been worth making you crossly switch to your document (which is in Word isn't it?) and delete the front page
- Do use a confidential e-mail address to communicate with us
The Don't's
- Don't have graphics or special effects on your CV. We once received a migraine-inducing CV from an outstanding individual. It had a colourful border which moved and flashed like a takeaway restaurant sign. A good CV could be passed over because of such clutter
- Don't leave off the early part of your career, so you moved 10 times between the age of 24 and 30, you are not alone. If information appears to be missing, we get paranoid
- Don't use obscure or ancient computer formats. The recipient of your CV is under pressure. When the message 'unknown format' comes up, it is severely frowned upon. Microsoft Word is the way to go.
- Don't password protect your document and expect us to phone you for the password. Use a confidential e-mail address which you can get on the internet
Once you are on our confidential database we will be able to match you up with potential opportunities as they arise.
Don't be offended if you are not invited for a face-to-face meeting with us. Keep in mind that as an Executive Search Firm we are client driven. Our ability to assist you is based on the positions that we are appointed to work on. We will not take up your time (and, admittedly, ours) and meet with you unless we have a definite role that we would like to discuss with you. We will make contact with you directly when a position arises that we feel will be suitable and of interest to you and take things from there.
Interview Tips
- STAR methodology: Situation, Task, Action, Result. Questions which are best answered using this methodology will certainly appear to test your actions in certain situations. Come up with good examples from prior experiences.
- Ask questions: make sure you have prepared a list of questions you would like to have answered.
- Show respect: listen to your recruiter, be friendly, positive and show interest.
- Tip: send a thank-you email after the interview. You can confirm your interest for the vacancy and say your enthusiasm for the position has increased. This will definitely distinguish you from other candidates.

I know that it is possible to send an e-mail alert after an event/trigger.
I lost the thread wrt the e-mail agent. Are there any specific requirements

it was the latter)?
Are there other pitfalls/tips to watch out for when getting SQL server to

Gary Busey has filed for bankruptcy, The Associated Press reports.
The actor, known for his Academy Award-nominated performance in 1978's The Buddy Holly Story (and his hard living), has listed more than $500,000 in personal debts and less than $50,000 in assets.
Cheers & Jeers: Wife Swapping with the "stars"Though he did not state a reason for Tuesday's filing in Los Angeles, his manager said that it will provide Busey a "new and clear path" to personal and career success.In early January, Busey, 67, appeared in an episode of ABC's Celebrity Wife Swap. He was on the second season of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew and the fourth season of Celebrity Apprentice, besides starring in the films Point Break and Lethal Weapon.
