The three-star Hotel Schweiz sits south of Central Station and offers cheap and basic rooms with a few attractive extras.
The hotel's name is a throwback to the hotel's original Swiss owners, and their memory lives on in the hotel's vintage posters of Swiss ski resorts and the Swiss flags hanging on the hotel's exterior (not to mention the Swiss Rivella drinks for sale).
The 25 singles and 33 doubles are on the small side, with new wooden furnishings and a Swiss landscape painting on the wall. The bathrooms are dimly-lit, but perfectly clean.
The Schweiz's main perk is the sixth-floor breakfast room and the wraparound terrace, which boasts a great view. The top floor also has a sauna (with an infrared heating system) and a TV lounge.

A nightmare came to life in Benson Saturday evening as the walking dead took over the Omaha neighborhood during the annual Zombie Walk.
More than 2,000 "zombies" of all ages took part. Organizers say the fun event gets everyone ready for Halloween. "Take their own time to put the effort into it so it's enjoyable for me, too," said Eric Hahn.
The walk raised an estimated $5,000 for the Siena/Francis House homeless shelter.

Perhaps these men, the Rolling Stones, should not be here, at this time in their lives, doing this – doing it so well and so scarily. It is a Friday afternoon, late April, in a rehearsal space the size of a large garage, on the outskirts of Burbank, California. Keith Richards, the band's rhythm guitarist, stands just a few feet in front of white-haired drummer Charlie Watts, who is following intently as Richards plays the intricate and foreboding opening pattern of "Gimme Shelter" with the delicacy of a man edging through hell. When Richards begins the pattern again, Watts joins on drums, just a shadow behind the guitar's beat, and lead singer Mick Jagger moans a high-pitched spooky howl, sounding like the ghost of a future you never want to see arrive yet can't wait for. Then the whole band – Richards, Watts, guitarist Ronnie Wood, bassist Darryl Jones, backup singer Bernard Fowler and keyboardist Chuck Leavell (who is playing with one hand, as his other tries to staunch a steady nosebleed) – bears down on the song with a menacing roar. Jagger paces back and forth in front of the others, in cat-feet movements, making eye contact with nobody, looking at some space beyond the room's walls – that the band sounds capable of battering through – as he sings his mortal plea: "Oh, a storm is threatening/My very life today/If I don't get some shelter/Oh, yeah, I'm gonna fade away." This song is Jagger and Richards' best collaboration in dread – a vision of ruination and a benediction of mercy. In this room, on this afternoon, it also works as a reminder that, in the moments of creating something so frightening and liberating, these men cannot afford to escape their fellowship. In this space, they have to work together and help one another. "The individual components of the band," says producer Don Was, "merge into this one thing that is the Rolling Stones, and when it merges, man, it's really powerful. When you stop hearing the parts and you see the forest from the trees, it's a huge, powerful entity."
Inside Rolling Stones 50: Rare Photos of the Band's Career
The occasion is a rehearsal for the Stones' first major tour in six years, following a handful of concerts in Paris, London, Brooklyn and Newark, New Jersey, in the fall of 2012, commemorating the band's 50th anniversary as a performing unit. Last year's shows and the present tour both amount to an extraordinary milestone, for various reasons. Few musical units of any sort survive, much less prosper, with its core membership (Jagger, Richards and Watts) intact. As Watts pointed out to me, the only other major band of the past century to enjoy such longevity was Duke Ellington's, which the jazz pianist led from 1924 to 1974 – 50 years – though there was no lasting core membership during those decades.
The math in all this means that the musicians in the room are in their fifties to seventies and are playing a volatile sort of music that's commonly regarded as the province of the young and defiant. In the early and mid-1960s, the Rolling Stones represented attitudes, looks, desires and resentments – and in turn were reviled, condemned, targeted for legal persecution and even, at times, banned. ("Not usually the ingredients for longevity," Richards says.) Though the Stones have aged, and though much has changed in the past 50 years, they remain the most definitional band that rock & roll has produced. They continue to play music with tenacity and a sense of risk, as if it's still possible to upset the world around them with sound and rhythm. They have made that collective determination into an ongoing defiance, despite the dismay of some critics and even peers. "You know, they're congratulating the Stones on being together 112 years," John Lennon said in 1980, not long before his death. "Whoopee!" Yet here the Rolling Stones are, in 2013, playing with an uncanny unity as they embark on what will possibly be their most anticipated series of musical performances since the epochal treks of America in 1969 and 1972.
They will, of course, be well rewarded for their efforts. Ticket prices for these appearances range from around $150 to more than $2,000. In April, Kid Rock told Rolling Stone, "We're all over-paid. It's ridiculous. People stopped going to concerts because they can't afford them! The Rolling Stones are charging $600. That just makes me speechless. I love the Stones, but I won't be attending."
The Rolling Stones Offer Plenty of Surprises in Los Angeles Tour Kickoff
At one point, I ask Jagger if he worries that there's an incongruity between the band's lucrative success and its early renegade image. "Well, I don't know," he says. "I don't really want to go . . . that's like an endless, sort of commerce versus art, rebelliousness and, um. . . ." Richards doesn't dismiss the subject out of hand, but it also doesn't seem to nag at him very much, either. "From my point of view," he says, "it's like this: We say we want to put a Stones tour together and people come to us with proposals. And these proposals are all basically the same. We actually did push down the prices a little bit. We took the lower offer, in other words. But, um, it's the price of the market. I don't really know. I don't have much to do with it other than I would like people to get in, to be able to afford to get in, without sort of starving their babies and all. And that's about it."
Despite the tour's commercial prospects, Jagger – who approves every detail on any tour – had doubts about this venture as recently as early 2012. "Basically," he told Rolling Stone, "we're just not ready." When we talk in L.A., shortly before the tour is about to open, Jagger says, "Well, I said that because we were being offered so many things, the Olympics and stuff, and it was a really good way. . . ." He pauses, then doubles back. "It was true, they weren't in shape to do it. That was a good excuse for me to turn down all these things." But the problem wasn't just preparedness.
The band is notorious for occasional discord and intrigue, stretching back to the group's early years, when guitarist Brian Jones floundered in his attempt to take the band's leadership as Jagger and Richards emerged as the Rolling Stones' creative force. In later years, it became evident that Jagger and Richards no longer always saw eye to eye about the band's purposes, and Richards' legendary keenness for heroin and alcohol threatened to rout the band's chances.
Keith Richards on His Remarkable New Memoir, Life
In 2010, Jagger and Richards' relationship was strained to the brink when Richards published his acclaimed autobiography, Life. He said some brutal things about his friendship with Jagger, and about the singer's personality, in Life's pages, and Jagger was hurt and angered. Richards, anticipating the arrival of the Stones' 50th anniversary, later contacted the band's members and said, "Hey, boys, I'm getting itchy. Anybody feel like it?" But Jagger wasn't willing to shrug off Life's insults so easily.

Hard to Be an Atheist
Nonbelievers struggle to find their own ways to respond to 9/11, and to promote a non-religious patriotism.
Inundated With God
"The attack on America has brought out America's religious colors. The result is that it's true what they say. God is everywhere. On our billboards, in our newspapers, on TV. In fact, the way President Bush presents it, God is even a confirmed and universally accepted entity. The message of Americanism today is: you're not completely patriotic unless you sing 'God bless America.'
"The national religious fervor may stir up the American spirit, but it also leaves the Atheist and the Freethinker way out in the cold. The non believer is inundated with god in everything we see and hear. We, as a society, react with horror to stories of racial hatred towards Arab Americans. But no one seems to care how the Atheist feels. Non-believers are just as moritified and angry about senseless terrorism and genocide. But the nationwide turn to the supernatural is, in effect, a collective and official repudiation of Atheistic values and the non-believers' rights as American citizens. It seems to confirm a statement once made by former President Bush: "I don't consider Atheists to be American citizens."
"Must non believers retrench into foxholes until Americans rediscover their senses? Is there anybody out there who's willing to publically account for the nonbeliever's response to the terror attacks, and the value of a godless contribution to America? Atheists and Freethinkers are just as much Americans as everybody else. We're not out to tear down America's ethical and moral foundation. No matter how religious this country wants to be, all we want is an America driven by logic and rational thought."
Too Much 'God Bless America'?
"Anyone else tired of seeing 'GOD BLESS AMERICA' all over the place? I wish people would stick to 'America the Beautiful' or something similar. If there were a God, he/she/it certainly DIDN'T bless us!"
"I now cringe every time I hear politicians saying 'God Bless America' or other religious statements. I don't remember seeing/hearing as much "god speak" during the Gulf War. Nor do I remember our local politicians invoking god/prayer during any other recent local crisis--it's always been 'people are in our hearts and thoughts'--not 'lets take a minute to pray to god for people'. I think the President should unify the U.S. based on it's citizens love of family, home, freedom, democracy, and country, not their love of or belief in god."
"I still don't know what I need to get me through this. And if invoking god or a belief that he/she/it ever has, is currently or may sometime in the future bless America helps others get through it... I'm really tempted to let them have it. It isn't hurting me. When/if it starts to (I'm a little afraid of seeing theocracy develop because we're fighting people who claim their god has identically blessed them), then I'll make some noise about it."

I sent an email asking some questions to a few of the churches nearby. A few in Iowa City look good, but I'm actually not that close to most of them, and with traffic, it would be a bit of a pain.
Good luck!
Thanks for this suggestion- I think I am going to visit them on Sunday. I've never been somewhere with a female pastor, so that may take some getting used to; but her email response to my questions was fabulous. Even to the point that she answered about abortion with "I think most of our members would view abortion as a tragedy, but understand why some women may choose that option". Which is pretty much how I've always summed up my pro-choice views (even if the church isn't pro-choice, the pastor certainly doesn't seem anti-choice!).
I am not good in new situations, or with strangers, either. If you are going to find a Catholic church, I would recommend the earliest mass. When I was in my teens, I used to go to 6:00 mass...........way less fuss then.
Good luck.
You could also try services at a local University. They are generally a more liberal less traditional crowd.
DH - and that's just my opinion
comedy skit, "Northern Conservative Fundamentalist Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1879, or 1912?" Funny stuff.
Chiming in here.... I know some Catholics who have switched to the Episcopal Church (which is also a Protestant church), as the doctrine is very similar. I was also raised Catholic, and quit going to church when I was in college and then about 10 years later I went back. It was a very conscious decision for me, made after a lot of thought and some prayer. The parish I found, and still attend 25 years later, is a very post-Vatican II church with some liberal views, though we are still, of course Catholic, and we have been blessed with very pastoral priests, some of whom have become good friends of mine. We have a number of ex-priests and ex-nuns who are members, a number of divorced and re-married folks, and I have seen a few folks who I know are gay, as well. This would not necessarily be true of every Catholic parish around here, of course. So my advice is also to look around. You may want to visit some of the churches around and see what the worship and daily life is like. I, too, thought I would just be able to hide in a dark corner the first time I went. But our worship space is very non-traditional and there actually was no place to hide. So, give some of the area churches a try. If they are not welcoming and friendly, well that may give you an answer.
On the other hand if you want to try a different church, personally I would look at the beliefs professed by any given congregation. Of course it's important to feel at home with the group you join, in terms of being welcomed and so on, but it's not just a social club, so you should be able to agree with the creed that is professed. Some things are critical, others are not so critical, and you have to think about that and maybe talk about it with someone who you respect. Think about the things that are critical to you, and see what the church community defines as most critical.
Good luck with it....
Even among Catholic churches, attitudes vary, depending upon the focus of the pastor and the parish council. My home parish used to be very liberal under our previous pastor, but he passed away suddenly and his replacement, while still a nice man, is much more rigid in terms of doctrine. I've had a lot of trouble with some of his homilies, the emphasis on politics and the intolerance he advocates toward issues that affect me. (He actually told the congregation that we should not attend gay weddings because it is against the laws of God and supporting a non-traditional marriage makes us and advocate of sin.) So I've been heading over to the other Catholic church in town where the pastor seems more liberal and inclusive. I've also liked what I seen of the Church of England services when I've been across the pond. I don't know how close the American Epsicopal version would be but I think if I were to leave the Catholics, that's where I'd head first.
I'd rather be thought of as absolutely ridiculous than as absolutely boring.
I suggest trying an Episcopal Church. I think of it as a more liberal (and accepting) Catholic Church.
"Michelle would never be caught with sausage grease staining her Vera Wang." - rfisher
Within almost every "mainstream" religion you will find both commonalities and a wide range of attitudes that can be tied to the local leadership (and may change as the leadership changes). Just because you feel welcomed and comfortable at one church or parish, you shouldn't necessarily expect that feeling to extend to another church or parish of the same religion.
Doing some research before attending a service would be a good idea but may not tell you everything - sometimes it comes down to how you are greeted at the door. I can attest to that from my own experience.
In addition to the activities and outreach that may mirror your interests, you might also want to consider things like music - are you a "traditionalist" who prefers an organ (and a robed choir) or are you happy with less traditional music (perhaps guitars and drums) accompanying worship? Do you prefer a quiet service without any music at all?
In the Episcopal Church in the US and in the Anglican Church in Canada we have experienced "break away" congregations and/or priests who claimed to be "bible-based" and used that as an excuse against things such as same-sex marriage/blessing, female priests, etc. They have affiliated themselves internationally (and within countries) but distanced themselves from the national church and from the Anglican Communion (worldwide).
FYI, generally speaking, within the Anglican tradition (i.e. coming from the Church of England which originally broke away from the Roman Catholic Church after a disagreement between King Henry the 8th and the Pope of the day regarding a desired divorce) we do not consider ourselves protestant (i.e. coming about from the Protestant Reformation) but catholic. We respect leaders of other faiths including the "Bishop of Rome" (the Pope).
Good luck in your quest - I hope you'll find a place that "feels right".
Can't skate but love to watch
Looking at these other churches, it is really weird to find how much the pastors individual views are what is being taught, since there is either no central authority, or it is much looser than what the RC church has.
I've found a second church that sounds like it is worth looking into. Overall, it sounds more conservative than the first, but it is much closer to my house, and the pastor tells me that their message is very non-political, which I think is good. I mean, I am looking for a Christian church; I can't expect them to be far end liberal.
Just did a quiz on beliefnet.com it said I should be an Orthodox Quaker...
Finding a church that is a strong fit for me might be tough.
Ditto on the recommendations for Episcopal churches. The liturgy is remarkably similar to the RC liturgy, and that's one feature of worship that's important to a lot of RCs/Episcopals/otherwise liturgical folks. UCC and PCUSA (NOT Presby Church in America) are also in the liberal spectrum and gay friendly (though that stance is officially more recent with PCUSA). But yeah, in all these churches you'll find a range of stances/beliefs as far as the faith goes. In the Episcopal church you have one major bishop (Spong) who doesn't even believe in the resurrection and questions whether Jesus was divine (and my response is, "so why are you involved in a Christian church," but that's a whole other discussion) and people who are very traditional/orthodox/"Bible bashing" and everything in between.
I think the other idea posted upthread--see where churches are involved in the community and whether they take on issues or work with charities that are dear to your heart.
There are some who really disdain the idea of "church shopping" and contend that you stay with your local church forever and ever, amen. Then there are others who are all, "geez, that espresso bar was really subpar" or "I don't like the way the Sunday school teacher dresses" and change churches constantly, but there's gotta be a middle ground somewhere. Nothing's going to fit perfectly, but if you can find a place that feels right to you--and by that I mean not only does it meet your needs BUT there's also a place for you to serve--then yay.
(And yes, there are so many different flavors of Baptist, I can't keep track. Also many different "Brethren" types. Very confusing!)
I don't go to church so this is not a personal knowledge... but my understanding is that Unitarian Church is one of the most accepting.

My husband and I go to different Lutheran churches, both ELCA. His is a large downtown church that is on the liberal side and has a membership of folks who are generally well-educated and financially stable. Both contemporary and traditional worship services are offered and the music is polished and of a high standard. My church is small, is liberal, and has a membership ship with a substantial number of folks on "society's edge." We barely get by. The music is . . . well, we try! My kid's prefer the smaller, less polished church.
Speaking as an Anglican (Church of England/Episcopalian) I think I am fairly liberal in my feelings but totally traditional in my choice of services. When my church (attended since childhood) switched entirely to contemporary services, I stopped going. I was never comfortable with the whole, shaking hands, Peace be with you, part - to me it comes across as phoney, but I also always considered myself Protestant, not Catholic, regardless of what the Nicene Creed says. We've had female ministers for probably the last 30 years and all but one of them I liked very much. The one I didn't care for was the one who changed all the services to contemporary. My friends suggested I shop around for a new church too, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.

Paul Ranger went missing from teh Tampa Bay Lightning in October 2009, for personal reasons. It's been reported that Ranger is back in professional hockey now.
Stamkos didn't see the end of the Hurricane's game, but maybe there's a bright side to his misconduct penalties.
Last year everything was new for everybody, from ownership to the players, everything was new. I got in the dressing room and, I mean, I felt like I was traded somewhere else. There were all different people. It was an experience. I think we learned a lot from last year, and coming back this year, everybody is motivated. I don't think it was acceptable what happened last year. Guys are determined to change it and turn it around.Vinny Lecavalier -- in a Q and A with Damian Cristodero of the St. Pete Times.

Lady of America Women's Fitness Club spreads female-focused wellness across the nation by furnishing each of its franchise locations with equipment and classes designed with women's bodies in mind. Each locale stocks a strength-training area with machines sized specifically for the feminine frame, and ellipticals and stationary bicycles help to chisel gams without transporting users across state borders. Instructors conduct such group classes as kickboxing, belly dancing, and Zumba aboard a floating aerobics floor, whose softened surface diminishes stress on joints. Throughout each facility, personal trainers patrol public zones to acquaint guests with exercise gear or host one-on-one sessions. Depending on the location, clubs might also include complimentary onsite childcare, brow dabbing, and amenities ranging from infrared saunas to manicures.

Founded as a sanctuary for flowers, birds, and their admirers, Pinecrest Gardens has flourished into a family-friendly retreat that entertains visitors with horticultural exhibits and artistic events in a scenic setting. Spanning 4.3 acres of forested wetland, the gardens harbor more than 1,000 rare and exotic plants, including a 100-year-old coco plum tree, orchids, and a banyan tree that spreads across three-fourths of an acre. Waterways full of fish snake through these plants, their inhabitants impatiently pursing their lips at visitors for handfuls of food.
Pinecrest Gardens offers other entertainment opportunities for youngsters, who can splash around in the water playground, spot wildlife at Swan Lake, or play with potbellied pigs at the petting zoo. In addition, the 500-seat outdoor Banyan Bowl offers concertgoers pristine acoustics and cool evening breezes along with complimentary views of the stars.

Thanks so much for looking at our post! Update: We had two pups, but one went to someone else already....One gorgeous 1 year old Ridgeback pup are looking for transport from roughly the Plano Tx area to Springfield Mo or St Louis Mo. Not sure how many miles that is as the crow flies, but this dog are being threatened to go to a miller if we don't pick her up. Any part of that transport would be welcomed!
She is very sweet! Thanks! Mary Malinowski 262-483-6964 Ridgeback Rescue of the US

In 1964 a Corporation was formed for the purpose of founding and developing a community for vacationers and for year-around residents ...a community to be called Pine Ridge, a name based on the fact that the area had always been called Pine Ridge going back for decades. It was an area for all of Bushkill's residents who owned livestock; for here was where they sent their livestock to graze. Also it was a haven for the hunters of Bushkill, Easton and Allentown areas; for here is where they would hunt deer but more particularly for the black bear.
All our area had been called Pine Ridge as far back as anyone can remember. The land was called Pine Ridge when the Schnoonovers came into its possession. It was called Pine Ridge when Mr. Suter bought it and used it as a hunters lodge. Therefore it was Pine Ridge land before Pine Ridge, Inc. bought it and proceeded to develop it into our present community. All in all, it can be said that we have a name that is geographically and historically fitting.

Monday's child is fair of face, Tuesday's child is full of grace, Wednesday's child is full of woe, Thursday's child has FAR TO GO!..........
Oh yeah, I have far to go, and so do most of the rest of us. It's hard not to lose focus and start to slip up. It's hard to stay motivated after 6 or 7 months of effort. It's frustrating to see the scale going in the wrong direction when you are on a one way street. The 10 days of the non-challenge challenge are coming to an end and there are no measurements or fireworks to mark the occasion. We don't seem to have decided what comes next. Maybe it's too soon. Maybe it's unfair to ask one person to cheerlead us across a finish line. Maybe we need time to find our own motivation. Maybe if we need someone to take charge we should rotate it around the group. This is worthy of discussion.
Meanwhile I suggest that we keep up a daily post. It gives us a place to meet and report what's happening that day alone without jumping all over the board. We do still have far to go and we need to do everything we can to help ourselves and our friends keep moving in the right direction.

I'm the child that works hard for its living. Is that Saturday? It's funny I thought I taught my children all the nursery rhymes but I never taught them this one. I don't even remember what day of the week they were born on.
My weigh in this AM, a new low:
Fasting blood glucose 98
I'm not sure that's a real weight because I normally drink a pint of water just before bed to prevent cramps. A pint's a pound the world around. And I woke up with cramps this AM not having done that last night. So there may be a slight rebound tomorrow, but at last I am out of the 218-220 yo-yo.
I struggled toward the end of the day yesterday. I had eaten more calories than usual at lunch which left not enough to satisfy my hunger at dinner and after. But I starved through it.
It may be that webmd calculates my metabolism at higher than it is even though I picked the lowest activity level. I'll keep checking for a while.
That blood glucose level is normal despite the fact that yesterday I forgot to take my morning diabetes pill until 4 PM and therefore had to skip my dinner pill. I am definitely making progress against diabetes.
I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.-Philippians 4:13
You are making great changes and your body is responding the diabetes is getting better thats a huge bonus you must be on the right track ... keep at it Go Sharon Go wow

I don't think I had ever heard any part of that poem before Kim mentioned it that first time.
Anyways, weighed myself this morning, just to find out the damage from a week of non-weighing. 192.
Helping a friend move tonight. Had two peaches for breakfast. Mmm.
Starting weight: 198 Current weight: 191
Anyway, here's some trivia about it....
Lyrics[edit >Common modern versions include:
Monday's child is fair of face,Tuesday's child is full of grace,Wednesday's child is full of woe ,Thursday's child has far to go,Friday's child is loving and giving,Saturday's child works hard for a living,But the child who is born on the Sabbath Day Is bonny and blithe and good and gay.[1> Origins[edit >This rhyme was first recorded in A. E. Bray's Traditions of Devonshire (Volume II, pp. 287—288)[2> in 1838 and was collected by James Orchard Halliwell in the mid-nineteenth century.[1> The tradition of fortune telling by days of birth is much older. Thomas Nashe recalled stories told to "yong folks" in Suffolk in the 1570s which included "tell[ing> what luck eurie one should have by the day of the weeke he was borne on". Nashe thus provides evidence for fortune telling rhymes of this type circulating in Suffolk in the 1570s.[3>
There was considerable variation and debate about the exact attributes of each day and even over the days. Halliwell had 'Christmas Day' instead of the Sabbath.[1> Despite modern versions in which "Wednesday's child is full of woe," an early incarnation of this rhyme appeared in a multi-part fictional story in a chapter appearing in Harper's Weekly on September 17, 1887, in which "Friday's child is full of woe", perhaps reflecting traditional superstitions associated with bad luck on Friday - as many Christians associated Friday with the Crucifixion. In addition to Wednesday's and Friday's children's role reversal, the fates of Thursday's and Saturday's children was also exchanged and Sunday's child is "happy and wise" instead of "blithe and good".

Your sugar levels look good too. that's great!
Skipping your diabetes pills, and NOT having a bad reaction.... can you IMAGINE doing that before this branch of your journey? Gads you've made progress.
So happy for you!

Judy, I'm in whatever challenge you come up with. Must make up my mind today if I'm going to go for 145 or not.
Morning weight: 149
Breakfast the usual, 1/2 C. old fashioned oatmeal, skim milk, walnuts, blueberries
Lunch: romaine and baby spinach salad, catalina dressing, apple
Dinner: chicken breast, maybe splurge on a white potato and broccoli
Will run my usual 3 miles this afternoon after work.
Kathy, rotating it around is a great idea. Have to say that when I do it, it will be simple as far as stats go.
I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.-Philippians 4:13
I don't know what day of the week I was born. Both my kids were born on a Wednesday and I'm thinking maybe I was. How do you find out?
I do have to say, I got myself back to walking out to the buffalo fence again. I even measured it. 2,513 steps. Took me 25 minutes. I used to walk it in 20. Oh well, that's what I get for slacking for couple of months. Its cooling off now, so it's not quite so hot to walk. And I do it early in the am. Early for me = 8:30am.
Don't live life comparing yourself to everyone else.
God has created you to be you and you are free to be you.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- One person died and two more were taken to the hospital after being shot near uptown Charlotte Wednesday afternoon.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg police confirmed that one person was pronounced dead at the hospital after sustaining gunshot wounds in the 400 block of Sylvania Avenue. He's been identified as Charles Anthony Jefferson, 54.
One of the shooting victims managed to run to the 1600 block of North Graham Street. Paramedics said they transported that person with life threatening injuries, also as a result of gunshot wounds.
Police said the third victim was also shot at the Sylvania Ave. scene. That patient has non-life threatening injuries, officials said, and was taken to Novant Health.
Police arrested Colin Demon Latta in connection to the shooting.
Latta was arrested without incident Thursday morning in York County by CMPD's Violent Criminal Apprehension Team and they were assisted by members of the York County Sheriff's Office.
Latta will extradited back to Mecklenburg County.

The Point Beach Council voted unanimously on Tuesday night to undo an early bar closing ordinance passed last year.
The vote during the council meeting at Borough Hall was adoption of an ordinance to repeal an ordinance adopted last year to require all bars and restaurants in Point Beach to stop serving alcohol by midnight.
Last year's ordinance rolling back the "last call" to midnight never went into effect because the state Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control issued a stay.
Regarding last year's early bar closing ordinance, Mayor Vincent Barrella said on Tuesday night, "When this was adopted last year, it was a lawful ordinance. I wish the state would show as much interest in us with Sandy as with things they shouldn't stick their nose into."
The ordinance adopted Tuesday night maintains the status quo of allowing the sale of alcohol except between the hours of 2 and 6 a.m. Council members who had supported the midnight "last call" had a change of heart in December, when Jenkinson's Boardwalk and the town came to an agreement that led to council agreeing to repeal last year's ordinance.
The agreement calls for Jenkinson's to drop all legal action against the early bar closing ordinance and against a parking plan that restricted overnight parking in District 4; for Jenkinson's to help pay for Sandy-related boardwalk repairs not covered by insurance or FEMA reimbursement; and for the town to repeal the early bar closing ordinance and to keep any revisions to last year's District 4 parking plan within certain boundaries.
Regarding the proposed parking plan for this summer,
Cortes said he had received a list of 97 local properties in District 3, found phone numbers for 60 of them and left messages on 24 numbers. He ultimately spoke to 19 residents in District 3. Five were for the parking plan, 10 were against it, four were undecided.
He said that regardless of what people's opinions were, all of them appreciated that one of the council members had called them to ask for their input.
"People said thanks for calling," he said.
He said he would rather see the parking plan kept the same as last year, with the possible exception of excluding Channel Drive.
"If it's the same as last year, it will be easier for people to remember," Cortes said.
Cortes had originally been against the parking plan,
At the last council meeting when this was discussed, Reid said he could go along with a parking plan like last year's which was only in place in District 4, but that he did not favor expanding it into part of District 3.
Council members Kristine Tooker, Bret Gordon and Michael Corbally said they were in favor of expanding the parking plan into a section of District 3, but also agreed to make the restricted time period shorter. (For more details about the proposed parking plan for this summer, click here.)
A public hearing and adoption for the revised parking plan for this summer is scheduled for March 5.
Barrella has said he hopes Martell's Seabreeze/Tiki Bar will consider joining with Jenkinson's in dropping all litigation against the parking plan. An attorney for Martell's has said the lawsuit won't be dropped and Ed Brannagan, Martell's assistant general manager, said in a recent interview, "The parking plan killed our business."

It may not be football season yet, but that didn't stop 150 area kids from putting on their helmets and hitting the field.
Topeka is hosting its second Junior Player Development Program at Hummer Park. The two week program is sponsored by the NFL and is intended to help kids build skills both on and off the field.
Organizers say players will learn every position in the game as well as learn life lessons that will help them in school and beyond.
Area middle school coaches, area college players and high school players help run the event. Current and retired professional football players are scheduled to be guest speakers later in the camp.

Bruins' Marchand matures into player whose production doesn't dive
Brad Marchand definitely has the owning up to one's mistakes part of maturity down pat.
"I dove," the Bruins' rookie winger admitted Friday night when asked after Boston's series-clinching victory about his exchange of checks with Philadelphia's Kris Versteeg that resulted in coincidental minors in the first period.
"He got me a little bit, but I dove. He didn't get me that hard."
Marchand was assessed an unsportsmanlike penalty to go with the interference call on Versteeg. There was no loss of man-power and the exchange of blows had little impact on the Bruins earning a 5-1 win and a sweep of the Flyers in the Eastern Conference semifinal series.
The 2010-11 season has been all about the 22-year-old Marchand growing up, especially on the ice. We witnessed the fruits of that labor throughout the Bruins' Game 4 win over the Flyers, and not just after Marchand's battle with Versteeg.
We saw Marchand bounce back after his egregious giveaway at the Philadelphia blue line that led to a 2-on-0 break and the Flyers' lone goal. And then we saw head coach Claude Julien trust Marchand enough to have him on the ice with less than two minutes remaining in a 3-1 game. Marchand buried an empty-net goal — his fifth goal of the postseason — with 1:56 left.
The giveaway that led to the Flyers tying the game at the 13:22 mark of the second period was the result of a play Marchand's had a bad habit of attempting to execute for years.
"He would always want to cycle over the top of the circle and try to create a play, and it resulted in giveaways a lot, in the American [Hockey] League," said general manager Peter Chiarelli Saturday when explaining Marchand's improvement since he turned pro a couple seasons ago. "But he got better at it, he got stronger on the puck, he got a little faster, so we've seen a progression. Last year he was maybe a quarter-step behind on making those plays, on finishing stuff, and he's just gotten stronger, he's gotten a little faster, he's gotten a little more mature."
In the past, Marchand might've also hung his head or become tentative after making such a huge mistake. He responded the opposite way in Game 4, as he kept playing his game, stayed aggressive and created some scoring chances in addition to playing a big role in Boston's three penalty kills.
"It was very tough. I was very frustrated," said Marchand. "But I had to bounce back and not worry about it. There was another period of play. We needed to get the lead back and get the win. If I let that bother me, then it could've ruined the whole game for me. So I just wanted to let it go."
Marchand let the mistake go and also turned the other cheek when challenged numerous times by Flyers players, who were desperate to get on the man-advantage in an attempt to salvage their season. Not only couldn't Marchand afford to cross the discipline line because the Bruins couldn't afford to be down a man, they also couldn't afford to be without his services. After all, he made the ascension from fourth-line grinder to second-line 21-goal scorer in his first full NHL season and has played a vital role for Boston in all situations.
"When a player like him is being targeted by the other team it means he is doing something pretty good," said head coach Claude Julien. "And I think [the key] for him right now is just to stay poised and make sure he doesn't get sucked into those penalties, retaliation or get short-tempered with that kind of stuff. And he's done a good job. It's been a challenge for him, but he's done a great job.
"And I think throughout the playoffs he has been one of our most consistent players. He kills penalties, once in a while plays a power play, but 5-on-5 he's been a real good contributor, especially on that [Patrice] Bergeron line.
Marchand said he was prepared for the Flyers to flex their "Broad Street Bullies" muscle in an elimination game.

I write about investing and taxes.
Looking for a job? Try to find one with a fast-growing employer. We have a list of them: 16 companies with a history of steadily rising payrolls and the prospect of strong top-line growth over the next four years.
The winning companies on this list range from giants like discounter Costco Wholesale and pleasure boat operator Royal Caribbean down to unfamiliar outfits like medevac specialist Air Methods and contract manufacturer Labarge. What they all have is a career opportunity where promotions are more likely than pink slips.
Imagine that you were an engineer 20 years ago contemplating job offers from Cisco Systems and General Motors. With one, your destiny might have been advancement and stock option riches. With the other, in all likelihood, something bad.
Moral: When you are shopping for a job, don't just look at the salary and the benefits. Do some financial digging, the way a stock analyst would. Increase the odds that you will wind up with a Cisco instead of a GM.
To create a list of winning employers I worked with Scott DeCarlo of our Statistics Department to screen publicly traded companies for these attributes:
–a 5% or better annual growth rate in the employee count over the past five years, with no year-to-year dips bigger than 10%. We considered only companies with at least 1,000 employees.
–a consensus Wall Street forecast for 5% or better top-line growth over the next three to five years.
–a top-quartile rating from Audit Integrity, which scorecards companies on such measures as transparency, corporate governance and absence of insider trading. The point here: You should avoid companies that are pushing the envelope with their accounting, attracting shareholder lawsuits or engaging in a flurry of acquisitions and divestitures. These are risky places to work.
The resulting tabulation is a far cry from the Best Companies to Work For lists you will see elsewhere. Those rankings put a premium on the warm and fuzzy things in a workplace. My thinking: In a booming economy you can fuss over on-site day care and free pizza on Fridays, but in a tough job market you should think about survival.
These days companies with shrinking revenue don't hesitate to engage in mass layoffs. Forget the pizza. Calculate the probability of getting axed. It's lower in a fast-growing company.
I agree completely but it is more than finding a fast-growing employer. The landscape has changed dramatically over the years, especially since the recent economic downturn. To remain competitive you have to be relevant and accessible. There are many stories of people renting a billboard or running TV ads to try and get a job. While none of them worked that does not mean that being creative isn't worthwhile. That is why I just wrote an article about "Helping Job Seekers Find Hope in a Hopeless Job Market" that you can find on Google News and many other article sites. Its a good article and worth reading but the whole point is to get exposure for my online resume at www.HireJohnTurner.com and (hopefully) get a job. Hope this helps and keep the faith. There is a job out there for all of us, we just have to be creative and remain vigilant. Good luck to all!
This is helpful for job seekers. Targeting companies that are growing makes a lot of sense. This week I have been focusing on how to make a career transition so that you can move into a field, company and job type that is in demand. For job seekers chasing jobs that no longer exist, a career transition is probably necessary. Here is my blog with step by step help for making a transition. http://blog.jobfully.com/2011/01/making-a-career-transition/
Target one of the companies listed above, figure out how your skills fit in, and position yourself to get hired. I hope this is helpful!
This post is right on. When looking to join a company for the long haul, it's important to look at revenue and earnings over time. Solid earnings and predictable revenue are far better than dramatic fluctuations (just ask Warren Buffet). Ask yourself if you would "buy" the company as an acquirer. The hard part with this method is when looking to join a start-up company. There is little history to analyze. For these companies you need to think like a VC after all your total compensation will skew to the upside.
The numbers are very deceiving for Cbeyond. High turnover as many are offered the coolaid, but don't drink it. Salaries are low vs. the industry but Cbeyond thinks they have the upper hand because the market is desparate. They talk about how you can advance rapidly, but they are not giving merit increases this year. Way to motivate your people!! They might think that will contribute to the bottom line, but that is just the thoughts of some of their stupid MBA's on the executive team. The great benefits are the basics of health, vision… 401k is not that competitive. There is no tuition reimbursement. They offer quarter drinks, but who doesn't these days! Finally, don't forget to calculate your hourly wage, because you will work long hours… many of them due to unproductive fire drills. At least you have a job, but many are always looking therefore your great new opportunity could await you!!!
[...] Best Companies For Job Offers [...]
This, to me, is kind of Garbage! I WORK for one of these top 3 (not saying which) and our turn-over is VERY HIGH. Because we have bad HR practices and many other HR type issues. Bad Managers, etc. Don't trust it unless you speak with one of the current employees or former employees!

Powers' integrity a rarity in politics
I have known James Powers for nine years. He supplies sweet corn for my small, self-serve, honor system farm stand in West Laurens. During that time, I have gotten to know a man with absolute honesty, integrity and compassion for his friends, family and the people of Otsego County.
Although we disagree on some issues, he always listens to my point of view thoughtfully and we can discuss any issue calmly and respectfully. That is one of the things that is sorely lacking in our national political discourse.
I am proud to call JP a friend and would recommend a vote for him on Election Day.
