Entertainment behind the scenes
Forget "Blonde on Blonde," Dylan now rocks a blond wig for Santa
Back in the 1960s, when Bob Dylan came out with albums with such elusive titles as "Blonde on Blonde," fans dissected his lyrics for every shred of meaning they could find. What does it mean?
Surely some of his hardcore fans will be applying the same microscope to his music video for "Must Be Santa," just released on Monday, in which the rock icon sports a blond wig as he carouses at a wild Christmas party. Why blond? Why switch from a white hat early in the video to a black hat later on. What does it mean? Who knows.
It's probably better to just enjoy the video for the wild, bohemian party it looks like, and leave the image dissection to someone writing a master's thesis. Click here for a link to the video, which shows Dylan at the center of the kind of Christmas party just about anyone would like to attend. The crowd is dancing, singing and jumping around, and there's even a little fisticuffs for everyone's entertainment, as a party goer runs away from another man, throws things at him and swings from a chandelier before crashing through the window. Who knew polka music could lead to such crazy happenings?
Of course on the mysterious blond angle, Dylan has gone blond before, as the Reuters photo to the left shows, when Dylan appeared at the Sundance film festival in 2003 and his normally brown hair looked about the same shade of blond as that of actress Jessica Lange.

NEW ALBANY — Following five years of hard financial times and difficult cuts, the New Albany-Floyd County Consolidated School Corp. board of trustees on Monday took a moment to celebrate a budget back in the black.
Fred McWhorter, chief business officer, said instead of dipping into cash reserves to balance its budget by the end of the year, the district has a positive balance of more than $381,000.
"It's taken a lot of hard decisions, a lot of cooperation from everybody — administration all throughout the corporation, [the] teachers association, all the different employee groups. Everybody came together and it got accomplished."
McWhorter said a lot of decisions by the board and the administration led to a positive balance, including paying off pension bonds and lowering debt obligations and refinancing middle school bonds, giving the district $4.2 million in interest savings.
But he also said some of the cuts in the last five years also included elimination of retiree insurance. Teacher layoffs and school closures were also part of cost reduction plans.
Those cuts, however, were legislative directives. State and federal appropriations for 2013 were more than $4 million less than they were in 2008.
Joy Lohmeyer, president of the district's teachers' association, said while some of the cuts hurt teachers through layoffs, freezing wages and other means, it took cooperation from her organization to help the district right its finances.
"The understanding with that is when they move forward and as monies are available, we'd put that back for salaries and that sort of thing," Lohmeyer said after the meeting. "We'd also look at reinstituting teaching positions that have been cut. As an association, we're very supportive of bringing back teachers for music art and P.E. Our bargaining team has worked hard with the administrative team, there's been a lot of research back and forth and our salaries are low compared to corps of our size. But we're hopefully moving toward that now that the corporation is back in the black."
Without relying on rainy day funds to balance the books, McWhorter said that fund ended with $5.1 million in 2013, more than 10 times its balance in 2008. But he said by paying off its 2008 unfunded liability of more than $34 million, it really helped some of their financial woes.
"That's the equivalent of getting rid of the Social Security deficit for our district," McWhorter said. "That's gargantuan."
Mark Boone, board member, said 2013's budgetary end shows the district is "doing more with less."
"You had a plan and you stuck to it, which meant it was a good plan," Boone said. "Everybody came to the table, all of our employees, and bargained in good faith. We took ownership and accountability, but when you look at how we got there faster than we thought."
He said as finances have gotten better, pools have reopened in schools and supervised instruction in art, music and P.E. in the elementary schools has come back. He also said through partnerships with outside organizations, more elementary sports are making their way back, too.
He said the cooperation of teachers and other district employees was appreciated, too.
"I applaud teachers and people in the buildings for not stringing these guys up four years ago when they started talking about cuts," Boone said. "They gave them time to see if this works. It's really easy to be critical when things get painful, but this is pretty exciting. We should celebrate this."Roger Whaley, board member, suggested the board pass a resolution recognizing the administration, board, teachers association and all employee groups for their resolve in taking care of the financial issues. The move passed unanimously.
But McWhorter said just because there's money leftover doesn't mean the district can stop exercising care.
"It's important that we keep our financial situation in check," McWhorter said. "There's already been a mad dash to say 'how can we spend surplus?' It's actually harder when you have money than when you don't have money because everybody has a different opinion on how you can spend it."

Letter of the Day: A right to fear

A right to fear
EDITOR: The U.S. Senate spoke with a clear voice when it voted down measures to ban assault weapons and high-capacity gun magazines and expand background checks. The senators who voted to defeat these measures sent a clear message. Rather than support the safety and security of the American people and the 92 percent of Americans who want some kind of control over the proliferation of assault-style weapons, they chose to support the National Rifle Association and firearms makers.
Clearly, these legislators have decided that re-election is more important than ensuring the safety of Americans. Their reason for defeating these measures is that they support Second Amendment rights, but what about the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? What about Gabrielle Gifford's right to a complete brain? What about the Sandy Hook victims' right to live?
In this new America that our legislators are creating for us, we are guaranteed new rights. We have the right to live in fear of the next massacre. We have the right to worry that it might be our office, our school, our family, our friends. We have the right to live in fear. Is this the America we want? Is this America?

So I went down to NC for a couple of days to build a welding table with my Dad. It turned out pretty nicely all things considered. We needed more practice on our MIG welds, but constructing a 4×4 foot table proved to be good exercise. We added a small 26 inch long extension off one side that will be my Dad's cutting area where he'll slot in steel strap for cutting with his plasma cutter and or Oxy-Acetylene torch if he ever goes that route. So that was a pretty solid few days of work. At the metal shop in Brooklyn I'll have a slightly different tack for building a base for our kitchen counter. My plan there is to build metal brackets to go around the 3×3″ wooden legs and then finish the skirt with wood and hanging drawers. Zoe's aunt has a bed that will replace ours as I'll be cutting up the bed frame I build to use for the legs.

Journal Sentinel TV and film critic Duane Dudek looks at life on the small and big screen, and some of the cool stuff on both.
WITI reporter dances at fatal fire assignment
The thin line between news and entertainment got a little thinner Friday when WITI-TV (Channel 6) reporter Angelica Duria was roped into performing a promotional-type dance video while on assignment at a fire scene in West Allis where three children died.
The video featured Duria and the giddy "Wake Up News" team - anchors Kim Murphy and Shawn Patrick, reporter Laura Langemo and behind-the-scenes personnel - all doing a twitchy dance called the Dougie, based on a hip-hop song.
Duria filmed her part while at the fire scene, and the others were in the studio. Videos of each of them were edited together and posted on the station's website and Facebook page Friday morning not long after Duria reported on the fire for the "WakeUp News" broadcast.
"The Fox 6 WakeUp Crew has a blast doing the Dougie," the cutline to the video reads.
"We're going to go clubbing with Angelica on the weekend," says Patrick during the video.
The video was still online early Monday. (Update: The link to the video now says it is no longer available.)
Also on the same WITI website and Facebook page were various fire related stories, including the arrest of the mother, reaction from an aunt, a police press conference and about how neighbors were "devastated" by the tragedy.
The news stories about the fire on the websites invariably drew comments from saddened and outraged viewers. The dance video, meanwhile, was recommended by almost 300 likely amused viewers who were unaware of its connection to the tragedy.
The question of what "devastated" neighbors might have thought if they looked out their windows and saw Duria dancing near the scene clearly never occurred to anyone.
Sources said reporters and photographers from other news organizations also at the scene witnessed the dance being filmed and wondered about its appropriateness.
Duria, generally a reliable and productive reporter, did a vigorous version of the dance alongside a WITI van parked about one-half block away from the home near S. 77th and W. Hicks streets, which had been roped off with crime-scene tape.
Bystanders heard no music being played; she was likely listening to the song through an earpiece. A WITI news photographer with Duria at the fire scene filmed the dance.
Chuck Steinmetz, WITI president and general manager, said in a statement:
"We have been working to make parts of FOX 6 Wake Up more fun and spontaneous - especially near the end of the show as we transition into 'Real Milwaukee.' We have tried to involve all of the crew and staff."
"While I personally received multiple positive comments from viewers about the segment - one person specifically thanking us for getting their day off to a fun start before going to work - we never intended to offend anyone. If we did, we certainly apologize."
The incident is an extension of two trends: making morning news shows more casual than evening newscasts of record and needing to fill more hours of local newscasts with content.
Increasingly, reporters and anchors interact with the audience on social media during broadcasts and behave informally in an attempt to create a personal bond with viewers that translates into ratings.
A previous incident with Duria went viral when she complained while reporting in the field about a snowstorm that winter "sucked" during the "Real Milwaukee" talk show.
That program's hosts gave her a standing ovation.
But that was a spontaneous outburst that probably reflected what some viewers felt.
This quirky promotional video of the news "crew" having "fun" was pure image management, something manufactured to attract attention.
That no one thought twice about enlisting a reporter on assignment in their reindeer games suggests an indifference to the distinction between news and entertainment.

All of Milwaukee's local stations are awful when it comes to the news. Thank God for PBS here. I prefer watching BBC World News which is on twice a night. BBC offers a half hour program with no commercials and real content and real reporters who are intelligent unlike our local yocal news teams with their nauseous personalities and even more nauseous news stories.
A new low. It's bad enough when reporters stick microphones in the face of anyone who will talk at the scene of a death; worse when they ask surviviing relatives how the death affects them; but to dance at a death scene.....disgusting.
This article assumes that the public takes the media as a serious source of news to begin with. Why would we think this is a travesty? We have an abortion doctor who is responsible for the mass murder of born alive children with no serious coverage. But, they think we want to see all this 'Hyped up Hollywood' garbage. Gone are the days of true reporting and the seriousness of the 10 o'clock news. It's just a media circus now.Hide replies
QTMom66 for the win!
And they wonder why their viewing public doesn't take them seriously.
I agree with goofball Patrick being called giddy but are some people just looking for fault. I agree the timing was bad for a dance in that area but......
Suddenly, as viewers, we're supposed to be outraged at "an indifference to the distinction between news and entertainment"? Local "news" crossed that lines decades ago. Disgusting? Maybe. Insensitive? Certainly. Surprising? Nope. The thin line between news and entertainment was obliterated long ago. Let's not start pretending we suddenly care about it now. Fail, Dudek. You're part of the problem whether you think you are or not.
There is a time and place for everything. This was not the place nor the time for jocularity. A complete lack of respect. Yes, this is not a well to do family that are victims in this tragedy, they were just three innocent children with their whole life ahead of them, but they do deserve respect At some point in time she will do a story and condemn some police officers for not showing enough respect for some street urchin that just robbed someone, ran, fought with the police and cursed them. They always do. The hypocrisy that goes with media elitism.
Looks like from the timing of the posts the "Dudek is a hack" and "this is no big deal" crowd doesn't crawl out from under their rock until after 10:00 am.
Meantime, the JS has this story listed on their homepage as a "hot topic". Pot calls kettle black.
So Madison communist mysogynist Sly Sylvester can make fun of the Lt. Governor's cancer, and then refer to her committing a sexual act, and there's crickets chirping in the media. Did Duane Dudek do a special on that?
Here a reporter does a dance on air, and it's a big deal.
What, is that area now hallowed ground? Were the neighbors gathered around?
Lighten up, kids.Hide replies

Robert Rankin Walker never made the cover of Rolling Stone, and he's fine with that. But the rock guitarist and vocalist and record label president is delighted to be back performing in Imperial Beach this weekend.
Walker used to be part of a band called Caffeine that formed in San Francisco and toured parts of the western United States in the 1990s. For a day job, he worked at Heyday Records.
Without commercial success, the band broke up years later, and Walker rose through the ranks to eventually buy the record label and become president of Heyday.
Today Walker said he works with members of bands like The Church, The Surfaris, known for their hit Wipeout and Tommy Tutone, best known for his song 867-5309.
On Saturday, Feb. 2, Walker will be back in IB to play at Crystal Cove Cocktails from 7-10 p.m.
Old Mar Vista High School classmate Daniel Goycochea organized the Crystal Cove show, and Walker looks forward to playing a show that's more like a big party with friends and old classmates than a concert.
"One thing I'm excited about in playing in IB is there are people who knew me before my Caffeine days or Heyday days, and most of them don't even know where I've been or what I've done," he said.
"When I was in my 20s, I took my music really seriously, writing music and everything, and now I'm 44 and I just want to have a good time."
Walker will play some of his original music, surf and rockabilly songs and covers of songs by John Mayer, Coldplay and other bands.
Caffeine didn't reach superstar status, but he called the band's bad fortune a blessing in disguise, giving him the opportunity to work with different musicians and a variety of projects.
"Here I am 16 or 17 years later, and I may never have been a rock star, and that's fine with me because I continue to work with all sorts of different people," he said. "And I've been able to work on TV, commercials, video games, sound effects, and I don't think I would ever been able to do all that if I was in a band."
After high school and before becoming part of Caffeine, the Mar Vista High School graduate and former IB lifeguard moved to Tijuana for a few years and performed with the band The Undecideds in Tijuana and at the U.S. Open Sandcastle Competition.
The son of a music teacher, Walker played the accordion and piano as a child but today plays the guitar.
Instead of producing music, after music downloads changed the record industry, Heyday focuses more on private shows.
Big influencers of his musical style growing up were the radio station 91X and music by Depeche Mode and The Cure, he said.
A love of the water and surfing also influenced his taste in surf and rockabilly music, he said.

FLOYDS KNOBS — Providence shut out Oldenburg Academy 2-0 and Forest Park 1-0 in overtime at Saturday's Class A Floyd Central Semistate to earn its first state final berth.
A year after a crushing 2-1 defeat at the hands of Covenant Christian in the semistate championship, the young 15-6-1 Pioneers came back to finished the job on Saturday.
"We felt the heartbreak last year," Providence senior Brent Hesse said. "That gave us more motivation to get back and get to the state finals."
"It's every freshman's dream your senior year to get to go to the state finals with a chance to win," Providence senior Evan Hollkamp said. "It's unreal right now."
Providence coach Brandon Rogers said he isn't sure if this year's team could have come through two hard-fought games without last year's squad getting to the semistate.
"Last year's team paved the way for us," Rogers said. "The fact of the matter is we had been here. We weren't going to settle for just making it here. Our goal all year long was the state finals and a state championship. It's not over yet. I can't stress that enough."
The Pioneers will face top-ranked Guerin Catholic (17-2-3) at Carroll Stadium on the campus of IUPUI in Indianapolis at 1 p.m. for the state championship next Saturday. Guerin, which is located in Carmel, beat No. 2 Fort Wayne Luers 2-1 in overtime to reach state.
"It's going to be a really tough game," senior goalkeeper Jeff Wiles said. "[Guerin] is going to give it their all and that's what we need to do, too."
"We're in the state finals now and anything can happen," Hesse added.
After a 9-6-1 regular season, the Pioneers have outscored seven postseason opponents by a combined 20-0.
"I would not have thought we could have gotten to this point with all shutouts," Rogers said. "It speaks to our upperclassmen stepping up."
"That's the biggest difference between this year's team and last year's team," senior Brett Hesse said of the Pioneer defense. "This team will play great defense non-stop for the full 80 minutes. I knew our defense was great, but I didn't know [seven straight shutouts] was possible."
The Providence boys now join the girls' program as state finalists. The Pioneer boys went to Indianapolis the last two seasons to watch the girls play and win a state championship in 2011.
"After seeing what they did, we were thinking we can do this [and] we should," Wiles said. "Now they can come watch us and support us like we did for them."
"We're showing that the whole, entire Providence soccer [program] is great," Hesse said. "Great for both the boys and the girls. Now we have a chance to do what they did."
The Providence boys were supposed to eventually add to the Pioneers girls' accomplishments. However, with such a young roster, it wasn't supposed to be until next year at the earliest.
"With our freshman class coming in, I thought we were two, three years out," Rogers said. "But the fact of the matter is these guys came together at the end of the season. My seniors stepped up and started taking on leadership roles. It was an awesome display of soccer."
After more than 83 scoreless minutes, it was a Forest Park mistake that punched the Pioneers' ticket to the state finals.
After another Providence attack appeared to be fruitless, Ranger junior Cole Henke tried to blast the ball out of the Forest Park box. Instead, the ball ricocheted off the back of teammate Austin Broom and into the goal.
"Both teams had chances and that's just the way things happen sometimes in the game of soccer," Rogers said. "You work to get opportunities and hope one gets in. Our boys were there on the goal putting pressure."
"Soccer's a weird sport sometimes," Hollkamp said. "Anything can happen, but we'll take it."
Both teams had several opportunity throughout the first 80 minutes to take the regional title in regulation. However, Wiles and Ranger keeper Blake Altman each made key second-half saves to keep their teams alive.
With 18 minutes remaining, the Rangers' dangerous attacker Spencer Stermersheim had a breakaway, but Wiles made the save of the day to keep the match scoreless. Six minutes later, Wiles stoned Stermsheim again.
"He's playing so tough," Rogers said of Wiles. "He's like a brick wall back there. I can't say enough about him. We can rely on him, without a doubt."
"Jeff came up big the whole year," Hesse said. "During this postseason, he's been amazing."
With 10 minutes left in regulation, Providence freshman Connor Vanhook had a breakaway, but Altman came up big and pushed his shot wide of the goal.
The Pioneers were able to score two goals in the final 20 minutes to pull away from Oldenburg Academy and advance to the semistate championship with a 2-0 victory in the semifinal round.
Providence had the best of the possession in the first half, but scoring chances were even at 5-5 in the opening 40 minutes. In fact, the Twisters had the best two chances to score in the first half, but Wiles made two fabulous saves in a five-second span to keep the them off the board.
Following the contest, Wiles said one of the shots partially crossed the goal line before he was able to scoop it up. The ball must go completely over the line for a goal to be counted.
The second half was completely dominated by the Pioneers. They out-shot Oldenburg 10-0 and put six of those shots on goal. However, at the 20-minute mark, the game was still scoreless.
With 20 minutes to play, Providence junior Logan Rauck attacked Twister keeper Jeremy Kelnhofer down the left side. Kelnhofer stopped Rauck's initial shot, but Vanhook got the rebound and fed Rauck in the box.
The Pioneer junior wouldn't miss a second time. His shot went by Kelnhofer and into the net to break the scoreless tie with 19:28 on the clock.
"That was all Connor," Rauck said. "It was a simple 1-2."
With 2:56 left, Vanhook made sure Providence would make its second straight Class A Final Four appearance with a bloop over Kelnhofer's outstretched hands that gave the Pioneers' an insurmountable 2-0 advantage.
Last year's semistate finals team was led by a pair of stars in Pierce Crawley and Andrew Wimp. Rauck said the young Pioneers were happy to make their own mark.
"We were able to work together as a team," he said.

Google has confirmed the rumors of a Panda refresh happening over the weekend.
Google said this refresh started rolling out on Friday, June 8th and has an impact of less than 1% of search queries in the U.S. and about 1% worldwide.
As I said, the search forums took notice to major changes in the search results, specifically impacting sites that were originally hit by the Panda update. I reached out to Google this morning for a confirmation and they have confirmed the update.
Previously, Google pushed out Panda 3.6 on April 27th, about 6 weeks before this update. Google tends to do Panda and even Penguin refreshes every one to two months.
For more on Panda update, see our Panda update category.

The Meridian Star
A 31-mile pipeline from Meridian to Kemper County is delivering treated wastewater to the construction site of the new lignite power plant.
Mississippi Power is purchasing the city's effluent water for the plant that is expected to be completed by May, 2014.
During a tour of the facility on Wednesday, Jay McFarland, chemical products manager at the Kemper facility said the 75-acre reservoir will be up to capacity in a few months. The water has been flowing for about two weeks.
"This is our primary and only water source for the plant so the primary use is going to be for steam production. It is a steam plant," McFarland said. "We'll bring the water in, we'll treat it and make it quality water that we can use for steam. We will also use it for cooling equipment and cooling processes."
The pipeline starts at Meridian's wastewater treatment plant on the east side of the city, he said, and took just over a year to construct.
Mayor Cheri Barry said the purchase of the city's water will bring about $144,000 a year to the city's coffers.
"I'm so pleased that we have the partnership with Mississippi Power," Barry said. "It's bringing economic development and revenue not only to the city of Meridian but those partnerships are building economic development throughout East Mississippi."
The reservoir is about 35 feet deep at its deepest point and ducks have already been spotted on it.
See Sunday's edition of The Meridian Star for more details and a construction update.

Democrats in the Erie County Legislature plan to recommend a surgeon and professor to serve as a Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority commissioner.
Legislature Chairwoman Betty Jean Grant, a Buffalo Democrat, will seek a vote to recommend Dr. Wesley L. Hicks Jr., a head and neck surgeon, to fill a vacancy on the NFTA's Board of Commissioners. If approved by the full Legislature on Thursday, the recommendation would go to Gov. Andrew Cuomo for an appointment.
Hicks is chairman of the Department of Head & Neck Surgery at Roswell Park Cancer Institute and is a professor at the University at Buffalo School of Medicine and Biomedical Services.
The Democrats, in a resolution submitted to the County Legislature, cited Hicks' "solid credentials and a deep commitment to our region," as well as his "energy and enthusiasm for the appointment."
If his nomination is approved by Cuomo, Hicks would fill a commissioner's seat left open after James J. Eagan resigned to become secretary of the Democratic State Committee. The remaining term would expire in June 2016.
Hicks was one of three people interviewed last week by a Legislature committee for the position. Former Council member Jeffrey Conrad, director of Erie County Center for Employment Opportunity, and Margaret A. Murphy, an attorney and former city court judge, also interviewed for the post.

NORTH ANDOVER – The Board of Selectmen is responsible for governing the town, including reviewing the budget, hiring and evaluating the town manager, approving licenses and sometimes revoking them.
In North Andover, the job description goes a bit further. A selectman is expected to help cook and serve the annual holiday breakfast at the Senior Center, which is offered to the volunteers who serve on town boards as well as municipal employees.
The selectmen, along with the town manager and other department heads, cook the eggs, sausages, hash browns and other food the night before, according to Selectman Rosemary Connelly Smedile, who after a dozen years on the board has helped prepare many a holiday breakfast.
The breakfast will be served Dec. 14, from 7:30 to 9:30 a.m., at the Senior Center, 120R Main St. Holiday music will be played and there will be a raffle for Christmas trees.
The trees are donated by various businesses in the town and the proceeds of the raffle will go to the Senior Center, Smedile said.
Asked who the best cook is among the members of her board, Smedile said that honor would probably go to Donald Stewart.
"Even when he wasn't on the board, he would come in and help cook the breakfast," Smedile said. Stewart may face some serious competition from the newest selectman, however.
The family of Richard Vaillancourt, elected to the board last March, owned and operated Val's Diner on Main Street for many years. Val's was a popular venue for breakfast and political banter.
As the newest selectman, Vaillancourt will be expected to wear a "funny hat" while serving guests, Smedile said. Town Manager Andrew Maylor, who will soon complete his first year on the job, pitched in and helped serve the breakfast on his first day of work, she said.
The tradition of the holiday breakfast probably goes back 18 to 20 years, according to Smedile.
"It's great fun," she said.

Amresh Kumar, Ph.D.
Assistant Professor | Marketing
Did you ever wonder what supermarkets and other stores do with the information they collect whenever you swipe your loyalty card while making purchases? I originally was a computer science software programmer, and I now use that experience and my math background to quantitatively analyze consumer behavior.
Most companies use such data for supply-chain accounting. But a lot of them surprisingly don't use it to drive marketing decisions. If you stock 40,000 items and want to make room for some new products, it's not as simple as removing some of your lowest sellers. That's because the people buying them actually might be your most profitable customers. So I've developed marketing dashboard metrics that both indicate how each product influences the sales of all other products and identify a business's best customers. You can then conduct psychological analysis to understand why they come to your store and determine how to get them to become brand advocates who bring in more people like themselves. The results can lead to a very effective marketing strategy.
I also regularly write a journal and online blog—and require my students to do something similar by writing a brief, weekly journal entry about their observations of marketing and human behavior. My students who work as sales clerks in retail clothing stores have noted, for example, that the more confidence they exude when they make clothing recommendations, the more clothes their customers buy. Another realized that despite the many soda brands and flavors available in supermarkets, she had only tried less than six—an accurate reflection of the fact that only a handful of sodas account for the overwhelming majority of sales. You never know how getting in the habit of thinking this way might in the future lead to a worthwhile business idea.
Finally, I tell my students marketing isn't just advertising, sales and celebrity endorsements. Even if you are not in a marketing-related job, you will always have to market yourself.

EDITORIAL: Budget cuts, then raises?
Months after 1-cent tax effort, cities give raises to employees
Budgets for the cities of Powell and Cody took an unexpected turn this spring.
After voters were asked to provide more tax revenue last fall, both cities then found enough money to give raises to employees.

While crisp, bright American flags fly in Cody's Field of Honor this week, old tattered flags will be formally retired in Powell.
EDITORIAL: Community health center in Powell?
Questions remain, but center may better serve area residents
Being "in-between" often creates headaches for residents seeking health care.
Babies, children and elderly residents can receive care through various state and federal programs. Low-income residents who lack insurance can turn to the Heart Mountain Volunteer Medical Clinic.

Meeting next month to plan dedication
As America honors men and women who died serving in the U.S. Armed Forces on Memorial Day, Powell is ensuring the legacies of local heroes are preserved for years to come.
EDITORIAL: Dialogue should be encouraged at public meetings
At two recent public meetings, officials avoided public comment on separate issues that clearly mattered to local residents. Ignoring the elephant in the room may be easier, but even when the elephant seems especially big, we believe it's better to confront it head-on.

When Ray Koterba offered to help his grandson Kole find a job, he immediately knew who to ask.
He wanted someone who was honest, with integrity and impeccable character. He wanted someone who had compassion, one who pours their heart out and someone who could turn people around with harsh, gentle comments, like a father should.
Koterba, who for many years was Rock Hills director of housing and neighborhood services, turned to Derrick Lindsay, 44, manager of the Showmars restaurants at the Galleria and on Herlong Avenue.
Koterba had met Lindsay under a difficult set of circumstances several years ago as Lindsay and others questioned if the city was doing all it could for minorities.
Koterba suggested Lindsay take an Inside Rock Hill course to learn more about the city. When Lindsay finished the course he returned to Koterba and told him he had been too quick to judge. He didnt have all the facts, and he apologized to Koterba.
Lindsays action impressed Koterba so much that to this day Koterba, father to three grown sons and a grandfather, boasts, I would adopt him if I could.
Its not the first time Lindsay has reached out to help others.
As a Showmars manager, Im a counselor, a friend, a mom, a dad, youre everything and you give advice on everything too, including school and religion, Lindsay said.
His advice hasnt been limited to a work setting. He has gone to schools to talk to students and traded his suit for gym clothes to help young children. One of his most endearing qualities, Koterba said, is that he wants to improve people, people others have thrown away. He wants to turn them around, make them do something substantial with their lives.
But to help others, Lindsay first had to help himself.
He was one of a family of five kids growing up in Rock Hill. His mom raised her children, and his dad, Jerry, worked in the mills, doing every job possible so that when layoffs happened, they couldnt lay him off, Lindsay said.
Lindsays childhood dream was to go to college, join ROTC and then the Air Force. The dream always ended with Lindsay blasting off the deck of a carrier, flying an F-16.
It didnt happen. I wasnt focused, he said.
After high school his dream became playing in the NFL. At 6-foot, 5-inches and 275 pounds and a top speed, he claims, of 4.8 seconds in the 40-yard dash Lindsay was convinced he was just a phone call away from the NFL.
He played semi-professional football for the Charlotte Blast until he blew his knee out during the fall of 1997.
I wasnt going to the NFL, he said. I needed a career. I had to humble myself.
At the time he was working full-time at a Winn-Dixie warehouse and part-time for Showmars.
His dad told him to stick with the full-time job. Lindsay asked him how many times his parents went out for dinner now that their children were grown. His dad said sometimes four or five times a week. The son decided to act on his dads actions, not his words.
Humbling himself meant going to the people who had offered to mentor him and asking for their help. Previously, when they offered assistance, Lindsays response was, If I want to flip burgers, Ill go to McDonalds.
While Lindsay would ultimately flip burgers, he decided at first to specialize, learning how to cook and prepare a perfect fish plate. He worked at Showmars restaurants at the Galleria, at Plaza Fiesta, at Eastland Mall in Charlotte and at one in Monroe, N.C.
His mentors included Geoge Couchell, founder of Showmars, and Konstantine Zitsos, the companys current CEO.
Zitsos would give Lindsay a list of 20 things to do, wait awhile, and ask him how much Lindsay had accomplished and give him 20 additional tasks.
When I told him I hadnt done them, he told me, Youre in charge, learn how to delegate, Lindsay said. I learned quickly.
He also learned from a distance, by watching how others did their jobs.
He kept waiting for Showmars executives to send him to formal management classes. But in January of 1998 Zitsos handed him the keys to the Galleria restaurant and told Lindsay he was in charge.
I felt lost, Lindsay said.
Lindsay described his management style at the time as everything was a nail and I was the hammer.
Like previous times, Lindsay listened, watched, learned and humbled himself.
His tests included customers reactions when they asked to speak to the manager. In some instances, the customers didnt believe Lindsay, who is black, was the manager.
You have to have a thick skin, Lindsay said. I call it the wet-dog syndrome; you just have to shake it off.
Now that Lindsay is managing two stores, hes learning to balance his time. What he wont sacrifice is quality. He asks his staff, Would you feed this to your mother? If not, you dont deserve to serve it to the customers.
Sometimes he takes a turn in the kitchen, usually on the fish side. I cook with passion and I want my plate to be the best-looking plate, he said.
Now, when he talks to others he reminds them that its not will life throw you a curve ball, its when. So you need to have plan A, plan B, even plans C and D, he said
And, he said, it takes the right work ethic and the right attitude. Hard work doesnt bother me, he said, adding with a smile paperwork does.
While he no longer has the speed that almost got him to the NFL, he still has the instincts of a left tackle, the blindside blocker for the quarterback, the protector who makes things happen.
A lot has been set on my shoulders, he said. Ive got broad shoulders. Failure is not an option.

Team USA had an exciting weekend. World medals were won, Olympic journeys continued, and athletes battled through the Warrior Games presented by Deloitte.
Eleanor Logan and Erin Cafaro took the silver while Taylor Ritzel and Caroline Lind claimed the bronze Sunday in the women's pairs event at the World Rowing Cup in Belgrade, Serbia.
The top-four World Cup finish qualifies Logan and Cafaro for the 2012 Olympic Team. They have until May 30 to accept the berth or the event will be included at the 2012 Olympic Trials June 11-14 in West Windsor, N.J.
Julie Nichols and Kristin Hedstrom finished sixth in the U.S. lightweight women's double sculls.
The finish qualified Jones and Masters for the U.S. Paralympic Rowing Team, pending final approval by the U.S. Olympic Committee.
Dana Fink finished third in the arms and shoulders women's single scull.
Anna Tunnicliffe and her Team Maclaren crew Molly Vandemoer and Debbie Capozzi won the 2012 US Olympic Team Qualifying Regatta by defeating Sally Barkow and her Team 7 Match Race crew Elizabeth Kratzig Burnham and Alana O'Reilly. Tunnicliffe defeated Barkow in the "first-to-six-wins" final match-up, which was held in Weymouth and Portland, site of the 2012 Olympic Sailing Regatta. With the win, Tunnicliffe, Vandemoer and Capozzi were selected for the 2012 U.S. Olympic Sailing team, pending confirmation from the U.S. Olympic Committee. The Olympic Sailing Regatta will be held July 27 – August 12, 2012, in Weymouth and Portland, located on the southern coast of England, approximately 120 miles southwest of London.
Navy Lieutenant Brad Snyder stood out in the track and field competition Friday and again in swimming Saturday, the final day of the Warrior Games presented by Deloitte at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs.
"I'm not really at a place in training where I'd be setting top times, so to be able to do that in this stage of the Games is really reassuring," said Snyder, who will compete at the U.S. Paralympics Swimming Trials in June.
After dominating the visually impaired category of track and field Friday, Snyder said he did so while trying to save energy for swimming.
Snyder, with his brother Russell as guide, took gold medals in the 100- and 200-meter dash and the 1,500-meter run.
The Marines led the track and field medal count with 12 gold, 10 silver and seven bronze medals. Sgt. Nicole Adams won the women's 1,500 open by about 14 seconds and took silvers in the 100 and 200.
The third annual Warrior Games was a competition for more than 200 wounded and injured U.S. military members, along with United Kingdom Armed Forces teams. For complete results, click on http://www2.teamusa.org/US-Paralympics/Military/Warrior-Games-presented-by-Deloitte/Competition-Results.aspx.

Nate Thompson had given the United States a 4-3 lead with less than four minutes left in the game, but Canada forced overtime when Duncan Keith scored with 1:39 left in regulation.
The United States plays Slovakia Monday, Belarus Thursday, Kazakhstan Friday, Finland May 13 and Switzerland May 15.

The Visa Championships also determine who goes to the U.S. Olympic Trials June 28-July 1 in San Jose, Calif.

A pair of Bronx cousins charged with bank robbery after Wednesday's hold up at a Yonkers bank are suspects in bank robberies in Rockland County and were planning to hit at least three more banks in New Jersey over the coming weeks, according to law enforcement officials.
Rockland County District Attorney Thomas Zugibe said the arrests of Michael Johnson, 35, and Andre Johnson, 29, stemmed from an investigation that started in Rockland County after bank robberies in in 2011 and . Zugibe said multiple warrants had been obtained so police could listen in on communications involving the Johnsons and GPS tracking devices were being used to follow their movements.
The investigation launched by police in and led to involvement by the and the . Zugibe said evidence gathered by the investigation and Wednesday's arrests by State Police has been turned over to the FBI for the prosecution of the Johnson cousins.
"This was a very successful operation which started out in Rockland," Zugibe said. "This is a telling tale of the need for our intelligence center."
State Police said their Special Investigations Unit based in White Plains arrested Michael Johnson Wednesday morning as he was leaving his home. Proceeds from Wednesday's robbery of a Key Bank branch in Yonkers were recovered, police said.

Long gas lines will be a New York fixture for the foreseeable future.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo said fuel shortages will continue into next week, but said more supply is flowing and expects the gas crunch to abate by the weekend.
"There are continuing issues with the fuel delivery and distribution system," Cuomo said at a Sunday press breifing, adding, "We do believe it is a short term problem."
He predicted overcrowding on mass transit Monday because of the gas shortage.
Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-New York, said FEMA has earmarked gas shipments and generators for 120 gas stations in the region.
"My wife was waiting 2 ½ hours for gas," Schumer said. "She called me every half hour asking, 'What am I doing about it?'"
The governor promised 36 million gallons of gasoline delivered to New York terminals. But deliveries have been complicated by the fact that several gas stations are still without power. He also said the anxiety of locals lining up for fuel as well as hoarding is playing a role.
"For now patience is required," Cuomo said. "Now is not the time to be using the car if you don't have to."

Latest Phil Hersh article. Reads:-
The same problems re poor TV coverage exist in Europe as well. The ISU needs to start sorting these problems out, as its killing figure skating.As another figure skating season begins in earnest Friday with the first of seven senior Grand Prix events, a sport that has been sliding slowly out of general U.S. consciousness will be losing traction among even its hardest-core fans.
The pricing and programming dispute between Universal Sports and major distributors including Comcast, Time Warner and AT&T means some two-thirds of the 100 million U.S. cable / satellite / telco home subscribers no longer can get live coverage on their TV or computer of the Grand Prix, World Championships and most other figure skating events.
That also affects subscribers to icenetwork.com, U.S. Figure Skating's web site, which previously streamed Grand Prix events live.
This week's Skate America in Kent, Wash., is an exception. Through the end of the 2012-13 season, Universal owns U.S. rights to everything but Skate America and the U.S. Championships, both belonging to NBC. Universal has cut deals with Dish Network and Direct TV, which account for about the other one-third of home subscribers, but its programming is shown on those distributors' premium sports tiers – further limiting the audience.....See it now. After that, skating is pretty much out of sight, out of mind for U.S. viewers the rest of 2012.

Lockport Union-Sun & Journal
Lockport Union-Sun & Journal — A perfect Sunday afternoon for the family is right in your own backyard, as Equi*Star hosts its annual open house on Fuller Road in Burt on July 28. Bring the whole family for an afternoon of food, fun, activities, a basket auction and a chance to see the sprawling ranch that helps so many special needs children and adults in Western New York. There's something for everybody and admission is free, so saddle up and head down to Equi*Star.
The whole family can enjoy summer fun at the Equi*Star Open House, even if you don't ride horses. The kids can get up close and personal with the beautiful animals that inspire their riders and maybe even take a pony ride. You'll definitely want the family camera along at the beautiful ranch.
The event takes place from noon to 5 p.m. and features a pulled pork dinner, live music, pony and hay rides, petting zoo, a pie-judging contest, 50/50 split drawing and 25-cent games for the kids. There is a great basket auction and winners need not be present, so drop by and take a chance on some wonderful prizes.
Back by popular demand are trick rider Leah Hunt and her horse Silver, from Prairie Star. Equi*Star students will participate in drill team demos from 3 to 4 p.m. to showcase their skills. One student has been working with Equi*Star's personal pony, Missy, and a wagon. Lucy, the bigger pony, will pull her cart for another student.
"It's a wonderful way for folks to see how determined these riders are," said volunteer Sandy Klinger. "They are very excited about performing."
The entertainment begins with Reunion at 12:30 p.m. The Barker Community Band performs at 2 p.m. and Leo Smith will lend his vocal talents throughout the afternoon. Dottie Ryer and the line dancers are on tap as well. If you're baking up fruit pies with the local harvest, bring a pie by 2 p.m. for the 2:30 p.m. judging. Everybody is welcome, young and old, farmers and city slickers. The ranch is located at 2199 Fuller Road in Burt.
In addition to the pulled pork dinner, visitors can buy cold drinks, hot dogs and baked goods throughout the day. Bring a chair or blanket, or grab a hay bale, and plan on spending an afternoon on the beautiful ranch. Admission and parking are free, making it an affordable family outing.
Many people still do not know what the Equi*Star program is about, or how they can become involved and support it. If you come out to the open house, you'll meet the folks who hold this volunteer organization together.
Equi*Star was founded in 1994 by Miriam Smith. Miriam was a returning college student majoring in human services when she interned at a therapeutic riding center. This experience inspired her to launch her very own program specifically for people with disabilities.
The program started with one horse, a handful of volunteers, and a few riders. Equi*Star called a few local stables home before an area was purchased in Burt. With a lot of community support, the wooded area with hardly any access and a little old barn began to morph into the property you see today.
Every year, Equi*Star seeks the expertise of volunteers as they continue to improve our facilities. An indoor arena was added and allows lessons to continue in all kinds of weather. More pasture fencing was installed to corral the growing number of therapy horses needed to fulfill their needs.
For a person with disabilities, therapeutic horseback riding is much more than just riding around the ring. It is a way to discover a whole new world of adventure, freedom and responsibility, dignity and achievement. It provides an overwhelming sense of accomplishment for everyone involved, the riders, volunteers, parents and instructors.
Equi*Star is a non-profit organization that enables individuals of all ages with special needs to experience the thrill of horseback riding. The mission has been to enrich the lives of people with disabilities through equine related activities. They provide therapeutic riding lessons for children and adults with varying conditions, such as Cerebral Palsy, developmental delays, Autistic Spectrum Disorders, Trisomy 21, anxiety, and much more.
Therapeutic riding is recognized by the American Occupational Therapy Association and the American Physical Therapy Association. Research shows that students who participate in therapeutic riding can experience physical, emotional and mental rewards.
The group's website at www.equistartheranch.org has photos, brochures, and all information needed to become a part of the jewel in the community. Volunteers are always welcome and no experience is necessary. There are opportunities to help, which don't even involve horse contact, such as fund-raising. Volunteer coordinator Janice Chapman would love to talk to you, so give her a call at 772-2156.
The feeling of being a part of this amazing group is the real reward for the many volunteers and staff who brighten the lives of others. For information call 778-8249 or visit the website. See how you or your group can donate items on their wish list, from bug-repellant to apples for the horses. Saddle up!

The page looks real deal, but it's not. It's a scam known as "scareware." And the bad guys have found a modern way to make it popular again.
"You can see it looks like real anti-virus software from a legitimate company, in this case, it's coming from my social network," said Tim Rains from Microsoft.
Rains tells me that the scam starts with emails containing links that appear to be from popular social media sites.
"When I click this link, it doesn't actually take me to my social network or my inbox. It takes me to a different site. And that different site is going to try to download malware onto my system," said Rains.
That malware will slow your computer down and send you pop-ups with messages to scare you into emptying your wallet.
"Your computer is infected or it has a bunch of security vulnerabilities, just enter your credit card number here to get rid of the infection," said Rains.
And once you give the fraudsters your information, the cycle begins.
"They'll send the credit card information off to the people doing the attack. It will also look for personal information on the system, game keys, any kind of information that they can actually sell or trade to criminals online," Rains said.
This scam is so successful because people continue to fall for it. So don't click on links from unknown senders. And make sure to guard your computer, much like you would your house.
"Running a firewall is just like locking your doors to make sure people can't come in," said Rains. "Running anti-virus software, that's just like running an alarm system".
If you're going to have a computer, anti-virus software is a necessity, but that doesn't mean you have to pay a ton for it. Check out Microsoft's website. They offer free downloads and malware scans.

heyboova118 weeks agoTook me a minute to figure out the exact reference.
How about adding "A Coodle Doodle Doo!" somewhere.
armyofrobots118 weeks agoI was thinking have having each of their "chicken" calls over them. Thanks for the feedback!
I'd order 2 immediately :D
(even though the shipping outside the USA is expensive)
but please make it in another color, black, blue, grey... :D
this yellow does not work for me ^^
mbecks114118 weeks agoGive it text and i'd love it!
heyboova118 weeks agoYou bring up a good point about the color too.. I know it wouldn't be arrested development without the orange, but I don't know if I would want to wear an orange shirt. Maybe the silhouettes could be orange? I don't know.
I think it's even better without the text because anyone who knows AD will know what it is, and you can't put how hilarious they are into words :D
but okay, if it has to be orange just make it a tiny bit better shade, this one looks sth between yellow and brown :shrugs:
I so waaant this shirt :D
or maybe what heyboova said, if the t-shirt was, for example black, the orange print would stick out pretty kewl :)
or make the t shirt blue, as an hommage to Funke :D
oh, no, now I want a separate Tobias Funke tee :D
armyofrobots118 weeks agothat's a good idea making them orange and making the shirt black. Thanks! I'll rework it when I get home from work and post it.
Thanks again for the feedback!
yost.117118 weeks agoReally like it, but I feel like it needs some text as well. I also agree that it needs to have orange in there as a tribute to the show. And if you are going to change the color, maybe make it white and orange because the show was known for being one of the only shows to cut away in a white out. But I think I would buy it no matter what, good job!
KaseymcKasey118 weeks agoLOVE IT. I'd buy it as is. Careful with the text, it might turn weird. I agree with yost about the white and orange. Def white and orange.
I still can't think of any text that would be good enough for this :D
@armyofrobots: thanks for rethinking the color :)
kruschel118 weeks agoLove it.
circusbass117 weeks agoLove it.
yost.117117 weeks agoText could mess it up, but I think it needs something with one word or two just to emphasize the fact that they are all doing their chicken dance/taunt
NinjaStart117 weeks agoI really like it! My suggestion is to add the respective "Caw-Caws" but to make the text very small and angled towards the heads.
Masokissed117 weeks agoOh I love it. And I agree with NinjaStart about the chicken calls. Man I want this shirt.
Lanargh115 weeks agosoooo, how long until this gets printed? :D :D :D
it doesn't look like it's going to be printed. It's been 3 weeks now and I haven't heard anything.Oh well, I tried. Thank you guys for the feedback and support. I haven't had the chance to do the black with orange characters. When I do, I'll make sure to post it here.
I also reworked it a bit. I fixed Lucille's leg and made her arms not so long.
okay. Some asked for text, some didn't. But here it is, orange on black with the title. I don't want to add the chicken calls, I think they'll be too small to read and will just add noise. I also made it to the proportions on 11x17, so it's a little large. It'll be smaller if made into a tee, with less empty space.
and here it is without text on white. OPTIONS!
ponyace115 weeks agoI think it looks terrific on black. No strong opinion either way on text or not. Would probably buy that version either way!
NinjaStart115 weeks agoI really think you should rethink adding the "Caw-Caws" because, even if it is too small to read, it will still look like noise lines coming from their mouths. I think the design would be great on orange. But if you don't like that, I think the white would be good too.
Lanargh115 weeks agoI like the orange on black :)))
I still think the text isn't necessary, but it's okay, I guess.
For me, it would be ideal with no text att all or only the "caw-caws"? I'm not sure.
Anhow, resubmit it, maybe there's still a chance with the newer version:)
my favorite is the black silhouettes on the orange shirt, but that's just me. I don't mind wearing a loud orange shirt. Haha.
and although I don't like to wear white, I think it looks pretty nice on white.
Maybe I'll resubmit it again after a bit, I don't want to flood teefury with the same design.
yost.117115 weeks agoI like it better with the writing. I would prefer and orange shirt with white, but I am cool with the other way around too. I have been waiting for a chicken dance design and this is really good

The blade is deployed by either the thumb stud (spring assist) or you can push the button on the spine of the knife and it opens automatically.

For Immediate Release: May 30, 2012
Former Lauderdale County Business Owner Sentenced for
Tennessee Sales Tax Evasion
Ripley, Tenn. - On May 29, 2012, Lauderdale County Circuit Court Judge Joe H. Walker III, sentenced Carolynn Reeves, age 58, to one year probation and ordered her to pay full restitution to the state. The sentencing was a result of Mrs. Reeves' guilty plea on May 17, 2012, to one count of Sales Tax Evasion in violation of Tenn. Code Ann. Section 67-1-1440, a Class E Felony. The Tennessee Department of Revenue's Special Investigations Section conducted the investigation that led to the guilty plea and sentencing of Mrs. Reeves for sales tax evasion.
Mrs. Reeves is the former owner of Chisholm Lake Store in Halls, Tenn., and Country Girl Steaks in Ripley, Tenn. Now that the criminal case is concluded, additional civil taxes, penalties, and interest may be due the state.
"When sales tax is collected from the public and not remitted, it is a breach of the public trust and a crime," said Revenue Commissioner Richard H. Roberts. "The Department of Revenue aggressively pursues criminal sanctions and demands accountability for such actions."
This case was pursued criminally by the department in cooperation with District Attorney General D. Michael Dunavant's office. Citizens who suspect violations of Tennessee's revenue laws should call the toll-free tax fraud hot line at (800) FRAUDTX (372-8389).
In addition to collecting state taxes, $2.0 billion of local sales and business taxes were collected by the department for local governments during the 2011 fiscal year. Besides collecting taxes, the department enforces the revenue laws fairly and impartially in an effort to encourage voluntary taxpayer compliance. The department also apportions revenue collections for distribution to the various state funds and local units of government. To learn more about the department, log on to www.TN.gov/revenue.
