MARSHFIELD, Wis. (AP) -- Marshfield police say officers have made an arrest in the case of a pregnant woman who was doused with gas, punched and threatened.
Authorities say the 23-year-old suspect threatened to light the woman on fire, punched her in the stomach and tried to strangle her during a three-hour domestic ordeal on Sept. 29.
The woman tried to escape, but was unable to leave.
Police say the man had heroin on him when he was arrested.

In Illinois, it's not only seniors who are confused, but also the social workers who help them, said Erin Weir of AgeOptions, suburban Cook County's lead agency on aging. The agency coordinates a statewide training program for groups that work with older adults.
During these trainings, Weir said, she's repeatedly heard questions from social workers who think seniors will be able to sign up for Medicare programs on the new marketplace websites, even though they cannot.
"We've been focusing on people who are already on Medicare, calming them down and saying, 'You don't have to do anything, you're fine,'" Weir said.
Advocates are also warning of scams that may pop up alongside legitimate door-to-door outreach about the Affordable Care Act ramps up and advising seniors not to give out personal information.
Senior groups are also devoting resources to educating the 50- to 65-year-old group who are next in line for Medicare, a segment that could be greatly affected by the health reform. Under the new law, insurers will have to offer more benefits in some cases and are restricted in how much they can charge older, sicker people. They're also banned from turning away those with pre-existing conditions.
Anthony Wright, executive director of Health Access California, said many people nearing retirement age stand to benefit the most by the health care reform.
"They're the ones most likely to have pre-existing conditions, most likely to be charged more because of their age and medical condition and very likely to be an early retiree," he said.

By JOHN SHINN
NORMAN — The nightmare Dillon Overton experienced 15 days ago faded after a couple nights. The pain he felt in his left elbow wasn't the cause of a major injury.
Nevertheless, until he heard the comforting words from Oklahoma's medical staff, the left-handed pitcher couldn't help but think the worst.
"It was terrifying, not just for me, but for my team and my family, everybody was worried," he said Wednesday afternoon at L. Dale Mitchell Park.
Overton can look back on it now because the worries are over. He started throwing off the mound again this week. Overton (8-2, 2.52 ERA) is scheduled to take the mound this weekend when the Sooners (34-14, 11-7 Big 12) take on Oklahoma State (34-12, 9-8) beginning Friday at ONEOK Field in Tulsa.
It was the series Overton targeted for his return, for a number of reasons, after the elbow inflammation he suffered during an April 23 bullpen session.
First and foremost, the junior from Weatherford loves pitching in the Bedlam series. He's taken the mound every year since 2011 and seen countless more games growing up. The other reason: if things go right for Overton in next month's Major League Baseball first-year player draft, it could be his final chance to pitch against the Cowboys.
"I don't want to miss Bedlam because it is one of the most fun series to throw in," he said. "I wouldn't say I have to make it, but I really want to make it."
There's no doubt the Sooners need him. With Overton joining Jonathan Gray (8-1, 1.20 ERA), OU possess the best one-two starting pitching punch in college baseball. Both entered the year as likely first-round draft picks next month. The dominant display Gray has put on this season has made him a possible No. 1 overall pick.
Overton doesn't have Gray's 100 mile per hour fastball, but he can run it up to the plate at well over 90 miles an hour. He also has the knack for hitting spots and three really good pitches that all major league teams covet.
The difference was obvious after OU dropped two of three at West Virginia last weekend and fell into a tie with the Mountaineers and Kansas State atop the conference standings.
"Those two guys can set the whole series by themselves," OU outfielder Max White said. "Getting Dillon back is definitely comforting. We know what the rotation is gonna be … Going to West Virginia without him was tough."
For Overton, however, why risk returning to the mound this season with so much money at stake?
Overton said that never crossed his mind.
"I've never been the type of guy to just stop," he said." My team needs me and I need my team for the support to come back. I never thought about just hanging it up.
"I've been working out with my legs really hard these last two weeks. I've been to every rehab that (OU trainer Rob Fulton) has given me to try to get ready. I've also been praying a lot for God to put his hand on my arm and heal me as quick as it can. The good thing is I've healed up really well."
OU coach Sunny Golloway said Wednesday he might shuffle the pitching rotation for the Bedlam series. Former Keys standout Jake Fisher (1-2, 1.91 ERA) will likely start Friday against the Cowboys. Gray will go Saturday at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark in Oklahoma City. Overton is slated to pitch in Sunday's series finale in Bricktown.
There might be some rust, but Golloway isn't concerned about Overton's ability to compete.
"My gut tells me with all his experience, and he's thrown his bullpen and played long catch, his spirits are tremendous and feels really strong. I'm not concerned he won't have his best stuff," he said.

February 26, 2001
DALLAS (SMU) -- If they had anything at all, the Spanish-colonial women living on the frontier of New Spain had a little land and perhaps some meager furnishings. Most had outlived their husbands and many, their children. In a harsh and remote landscape, some even managed a few luxuries, such as Gertrudis Estebana who left five pounds of chocolate to her heirs.
These rare and often sentimental insights into the lives of ordinary Spanish-colonial women living between 1770 and 1820 were unearthed by Amy Meschke, a Clements Scholar and Ph.D. candidate in American history at Southern Methodist University, who studied the wills of 20 women from San Esteban de Nueva Tlaxcala, a frontier settlement in northern Mexico that no longer exists. She discovered these buried testaments in the archives of Saltillo, Mexico.
Overlooked by historians of the Spanish-colonial era, the wills offer a window into the way people lived in the Texas and Mexico borderlands more than 200 years ago. Meschke decided to compare the wills of the San Esteban women to the wills of more affluent women in Santa Fe, New Mexico, a larger and more settled Spanish-colonial community. She will present her study, "The Women of San Esteban de Nueva Tlaxcala and Their Wills in the Late Spanish Colonial Period," at the annual meeting of the Texas State Historical Association March 1 in Houston.
"Social history has taken off in the field of Spanish-colonial history," Meschke says. "For so long the emphasis was on studying the building of missions and on conquests and explorations, but now historians are beginning to study ordinary people."
These wills are valuable to historians, Meschke says, because most people who lived in the Spanish colonies could neither read nor write. Historians, therefore, have few letters, diaries and other first-hand accounts of people's lives. The wills discovered by Meschke tell her about possible mortality and fertility rates; wealth and class differences; the role of religion; the types of property owned and agricultural practices; and the importance of Spanish law and custom in protecting the inheritance and property rights of Spanish-colonial women.
"The women of San Esteban in the late colonial period lived in a different time. They had to contend with Indian raids, diseases and being remote from the center of New Spain," Meschke says. "Most women could count on being widowed and losing children during their lives. Nonetheless, widowhood and protection under Spanish law provided the women of San Esteban with some independence. They used their wills to pass on their property, no matter how little they might have had."
Meschke says the comparisons show that many women who wrote wills in Santa Fe were elites who needed to protect their estates, while the women of San Esteban were not wealthy, but used testaments for a similar purpose, which was to protect their privileges. She plans to conduct further research, looking at wills over a longer period and comparing men and women's wills in order to understand the different and similar experiences of men and women in these frontier settlements.
Note to Editor: A copy of Meschke's paper "The Women of San Esteban de Nueva Tlaxcala and Their Wills in the Late Spanish Colonial Period" is available by calling the SMU Office of News and Information at 214-768-7650.

Let people decide on socialized medicine
Robert Holdefer
Knoxville —
To the editor:
My grandfathers were farmers. Before Pearl Harbor, they lived on unimproved roads without electricity or indoor plumbing, but they had plenty to eat, no debt and little money. They raised chickens, pigs, milked cows and butchered their own animals for pork and beef.
In 1942, one of my grandfathers was told that his heart was bad enough that he should be in a hospital. He had no means to pay for this, and the son who had helped him on the farm was then working at a defense plant near Washington, D.C. His aged mother-in-law broke a hip and came to live with them. My grandparents struggled to get the old lady to an upstairs bedroom. In a short time, both my grandfather and his wife's mother died.
Then, doctors would make home visits. People complained about gas prices. My grandfather wished that he could use the oats that he raised to run his car. He grew most of their food, but had to have enough money to pay property taxes.
Now, in an election year with the Supreme Court considering the Constitutionality of the health care law, there is much uncertainty. We need both political parties working together to give consideration to the people who elected them. I am tired of hearing the word "socialism" in the present political issues. I have benefitted from the use of the VA since 1946. The post office, Social Security and Medicare are all socialistic. Americans should have a choice between a single-payer health plan and one run by free enterprise. Let people choose one or the other. Our country's future may depend on a good measure of public and private programs.

Taking tips, chasing leads, and solving problems
Boats for sale on Craigslist were escrow scams, state says
If you're looking to buy a boat advertised for sale on Craigslist or other online ad services, make sure there's actually a boat before you deposit any money.
Recently, boat buyers have lost thousands of dollars after putting money into escrow accounts at the seller's request, warns the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection.
Recent postings to Craigslist throughout the Midwest have falsely advertised boats for sale in Wisconsin, the agency warns.
"An Illinois buyer deposited more than $20,000 in an escrow account to purchase a boat in Wisconsin through a fraudulent posting. As soon as the money hit the escrow account, it was transferred out of state and then overseas, leaving the buyer empty-handed," the department said in a news release.
"In another incident, a man in Tennessee found the perfect boat on Craigslist. It was in great condition, had a clear title and was free of damage. The owner, 'Tina,' was in Alaska, but the boat was stored at her summer home in Brookfield," the state said. "Because she had been burned in a previous deal, Tina wanted the sale price paid in full to an escrow account managed by a Brookfield law firm before she would travel to Wisconsin to make the sale."
Turns out, there was no boat, and the law firm does not exist. The title provided to the buyer was fraudulent. Luckily, the buyer from Tennessee became suspicious and did not hand over any cash. The cash would have disappeared if the buyer had put the money in the escrow account, the state said.
"Craigslist and similar sites are simply online local classified ad services, so treat them as you would an ad in your local newspaper," the news release said. "Try to handle your sales and purchases face-to-face in a public place and avoid scams."
Red flags to look for, according to the state:
· Deals that are too good to be true
· A seller who asks you to put your money in escrow, particularly in an online escrow account
· Being asked to pay by wire transfer or prepaid debit card (such as a MoneyPak Green Dot card)
· Being told that the seller can offer buyer's protection from Craigslist – Craigslist does not offer any such protection for transactions
· A buyer offers to pay you extra for an item you have listed for sale, but asks that you send back the difference by wire transfer. This is called a "fake check" scam. If the bank cashes the bad check and you send the money to the scammer, you will be responsible for paying it back in full to the bank when it is found to be fake days or weeks later.
For more information or to file a consumer complaint, visit datcp.wisconsin.gov, send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com or call the hotline toll-free at (800) 422-7128.

Craigslist is a known 'tool' for thieves and burglars to fence stolen goods, even with face to face meetings to buy and sell items. All your doing then is meeting with the thief face to face, an even scarier proposition.Hide replies
It is also a well known tool for honest people to successfully buy and sell merchandise. Let's not throw Craig's List under the bus because of a few individuals.
Let the scaredy cat keep paying too much for crap, or paying shipping and fees on eBay. More deals for the rest of us with enough common sense to avoid the scams ! =P
I have a boat for sale, and I was going to use Craigslist.Hide replies
What kind? I was going to buy one off Craigslist but am now concerned.
Old Crestliner aluminum no frills fishing boat and trailer.
I bought a boat on Craigslist last year, it was a seamless and straight-forward transaction. Sure, caveat emptor with Craigslist, but it's still the best place to shop secondary goods
What a horrible article. First, there are legitimate online escrow accounts to handle these types of transactions. I have bought a few cars on CL and eBay this way and saved literally thousands on each transaction. Are there risks? Sure but do your homework before you send any money anywhere. In the end, articles like this just give Craigslist a bad name when it's really gullible people who are to blame...
I still remember my sisters boyfriends a few years back "bought" a motorcycle on eBay. It was just an unbelievable deal and because the guy worked for a shipping company, delivering it to the US wouldn't be a problem. So a motorcycle that would have been $9000 here was being sold for a mere $1800 in Europe and the guy just wanted to sell the bike. Of course, it would need to be paid via western Union. How many people think he ever saw that amazing motorcycle or the $1800 again???
Sorry, but you really have to be an ignorant idiot to put up any of your own cash prior to having possession of whatever you're buying off of Craigslist. If the boat is too far away for you to go see it in advance, then you probably shouldn't buy it. Stupid people get scammed.
"wealth redistribution"
Just makes sense to know who you are dealing with and more sense to deal with local businesses that you know. As the story noted "if the deal seems to good..."
Fool's and their money ......
As said, do your homework, never send money in advance, and if any doubt enters your minds - walk away.
I have a 2012 Corvette I am selling for $10,000. The buyer has to leave the $10k in cash, in a suitcase in the 3rd garbage can east of the pavillion in Wilson Park. Once I have the cash, I'll call the purchaser and let them know where to pick up the car.Hide replies
would you take $5000, that's all I have?
What color is it?
who cares what color it is?LOL
Fabulous! How do I contact you to arrange this transaction?

VLS Students Advance in National Animal Law Moot Court Competition
February 27, 2012
Four Vermont Law School students turned in stellar performances at the 9th annual National Animal Law Competitions (NALC), which were held Feb. 24-26 at the UCLA School of Law.
Monica Miller '12 and Meredith Crafton '12 advanced to the quarter finals of the moot court competition against Yale, the University of Chicago and Lewis & Clark.
Krystil Smith '13 and Michelle Sinnott '13 won the Best Brief Award for receiving the highest appellate brief score overall.
The VLS team was coached by Assistant Professor Pamela Vesilind.
More than 70 law students represented nearly 30 of America's best law schools at NALC this year. NALC is an inter-law school competition presented by the Center for Animal Law Studies at Lewis & Clark in collaboration with the Animal Legal Defense Fund.
NALC, which was hosted by Harvard Law School for the past eight years, provides law students from across the United States with an opportunity to develop knowledge in the field of animal law, while honing their written and oral advocacy skills. The event is composed of three separate competitions: Legislative Drafting & Lobbying Competition; Closing Argument Competition; and Appellate Moot Court Competition.

After spending summer flitting around like hummingbirds, my family returns to heavy reading habits in the cooler, drizzly fall.
We all stake out our favorite reading spots; I get the big easy chair, daddy takes his reading materials to the deer blind, two boys lay claim to one end each of the love seat, another bounces up and down on the exercise ball while reading, a fourth stretches out like a cat on the couch, and the last inexplicably camps out under the couch. Don't worry, he's not being crushed. It's a tall couch.
The house becomes an obstacle course of book piles. We have library piles, book sale piles, library book sale piles, we-went-to-the-thrift-store-on-bag-day piles and book shelves brimming to the breaking point with books waiting to be cracked for the first time or returned to like an old friend who is well loved.
One set of books to which all of us return — including dad and mom — is the Harry Potter series.
To say the Harry Potter books have captured our family's collective imagination is a vast understatement. The stories capture us, no doubt, but oh, the food.
Those who have read the books know that food is featured prominently; in fact, the dishes in the books are compelling enough that my kids wanted to make many of them immediately after reading. Treacle tart, pumpkin pasties, chocolate frogs, Knickerbocker Glory, rock cakes, Aunt Petunia's pudding, pies, butter beer, steak and kidney pudding, stews, chocolate eclairs, rice pudding.
My boys were practically slobbering with hunger after they laid the books down. Thankfully, many of the recipes in the books are British classics, and therefore easy to replicate.
Over the years, we've narrowed our best-loved dishes from the books down to Treacle Tart and Pumpkin Pasties. Never fear, though, if you're not a fan of the books, you'll still adore these recipes. They scream autumn and comfort.

Hi All,
Regardless of the facility since most CD's that conduct workshops make their way around to most facilities, my question is which of these Cd's actually call in the most actors from these workshops? I know Scott David does, but who else is a must see? Who should you not waste your time and money on? I'm trying to maximize and target exposure to worthwhile CD's or associates and minimize the amount of money that get's wasted on useless workshops? Also, which agent workshops are worthwhile and not just used as a measure to pad their own pockets?
So, who has had luck with or heard about Cd's and agents that are a must see and take workshops seriously? Again, facility is unimportant since you can just wait until particular CD's show up at the cheaper facilities.
|Denzel Washington
I think the real question to ask is "Which actors actually get called in from CD workshops".
|Glenn Close
All of the data offered from CD's suggests they regularly call in actors from workshops. The more important question is "How many shows have actually BOOKED a workshop actor?" In a previous post I digested some data published by one of the larger workshop companies and estimated the number at about 1 booking per 125 workshops. At $40 each, thats $5,000 in workshop fees for a co star role. Congrats, the CD made a lot more money on that job than the actor did.
The big workshop facilities post and publish information on actors being called in. If actors didn't get called in, the workshop business would dry up and the CD's would have to go back to casting projects to make money. Shudder the thought.
So, getting called in is great right? You get to audition in the office which is great experience. Many actors tell you that you have to be seen by the same CD's a couple of times before they will cast an unknown. So, between the workshop and the office audition you have seen the CD twice. Maybe when your agent send you in for your third try you have moved to the head of the line.
All of that said I have finally come to the personal decision that I am not going to participate in the workshop scam/illusion any longer. If that means my career progresses slower or doesn't go any further so be it. I will find some other way.
|Kevin Bacon
No, I think Gotthebug is posing a legitimate question. Sure, there's always the potential that an actor could blow even the most discerning casting director out of the water. So by that rationale, every casting director can feasibly call people in... but the reality is, some of them just don't. Not even talented working actors, and there are definitely some out there attending workshops.
I would also like to know of any other CDs like Scott David who have a reputation of being more inclined to call in a new face if they did a good job in a workshop.
Dominion always sends out emails of who got called in and/or booked. Normally it's the same actors.
|Al Pacino
I say amen and hallelujah.

|Denzel Washington
I'll tell you who doesn't call you in, Casting Assistants. Avoid like the plague. I even saw that two different Asst's were having 3wk workshops (which I think are great if done with a top notch CD), but for an assistant? Come on, now.
|Russell Crowe
I always get frustrated when people say crap about workshops---how the flip else are we supposed to get in to see them. And I know people who have been called in and BOOKED from the following CD's (since that was the actual question, people!)
Toddy Sherry, Erica Silverman, April Webster, Ricki Maslar, Stephanie Laffin--I just woke up from a nap (thus the grumpiness at the unhelpful replies) so I'm sure I'll think of some more later.
Stephanie Laffin isn't working anymore. Janelle Scuderi is now her replacement for House, but targeting Janelle is pointless for House is supposed to be over.
|Harrison Ford
I would never downplay the power of a casting assistant/associate. When they see quality work and have been treated with respect and professionalism, they can easily be a stepping stone to the CD they work with. Plus, you never know, they could also become the CD of your next audition, so it is to an actor's benefit and is just common sense to treat every position level in this industry with kindness and respect.
"If you can dream, you can do. Making it happen is up to you!"
Thank you. This is what I'm after, actual names. I hate having to do workshops too, but in all reality, it's becoming a near necessity these days. I'm just not interested in rewarding assistants, associates, cd's, or agents with my limited funds if they are strictly padding their pockets and never calling in workshop attendees in and/or booking them. And yes, I do understand that not everyone can get called in, and we as actors must give a great read.
So yes, more names people. If we've got to reward these people with our money, let's reward those that reward us.
Like Lurker has mentioned, it's not so much names that are important, it's how good YOU are and whether your type is right for what they're currently casting. Part of who gets called in is based on TIMING as well. If the CDs aren't casting projects or getting roles that have someone like your type, then they can't bring you in regardless of how good you were.
YOU have to make a list of your favorite shows or shows your type are actually right for and target those CDs. They may or may not call you in. But regardless of that, they now know you thus making it easier for your agent to pitch you.
For sure, there are some CDs who do workshops that you should avoid. If a simple IMDB search shows that they cast mostly indies and non union shit like Sunny Boling, Meg Mormann, Ty Harman, Andy Henry, Twinkie Byrd, Jeff Hardwick, to name a few, then save your $40+ for a CD who is actually important.
The main importance of CD workshops is GETTING ON THEIR RADAR! You CAN'T go to those expecting to get cast or brought in.
|Nicholas Cage
Yes, when potential employers are allowed to charge for job interviews, then the only way to get a job interview will be to pay for one. If employers *aren't* allowed to charge for job interviews, then other ways will become available, because employers have to have a way to find qualified applicants. The only reason this is the only way to see them is because it's allowed. If it weren't allowed, then the CD's would be forced to find other ways to find new actors (which I believe they used to do).

I didn't say to disrespect the Assistants, I just said NEVER pay to see them. Huge difference.
I think the biggest frustration is the dishonesty of some CD Workshop facilities. They say they're going to have the CD of some major office, but when you get there, it's an assistant who really doesn't do anything and has little to show resume wise.
Some examples are Sarah Tirado who's often billed by some CD workshops as a CD for Bold and the Beautiful and Mike Page who is commonly billed as a CD for Criminal Minds. Why would you waste your money on these ASSISTANTS when you can see Christy Dooley (Bold and the Beautiful) and Scott David (Criminal Minds) themselves?

Welcome to Joshua Tree, a desert community of rugged mountains, playful granite piles, magically quiet nights, peace and solitude and all the rock climbing, picture taking and sightseeing you yearn for in your travels here.
You can relax on the studio patio and take in the wondrous panorama of the skyline of Joshua Tree National Park. Just recharge and enjoy nature's gift of wildlife and wild scenery. Enjoy the constant chatter of our cactus wrens, whose nest is a few feet from the patio or the family of quail who roost overnight in the yucca not far from your door. Perhaps a coyote will sing you a song. This is our desert music, a concert that welcomes you.
The studio is furnished for two. A comfortable bed, sparkling clean rooms, a kitchenette with a microwave, small refrigerator, coffee maker, toaster, frying pan and a variety of pots and pans, utensils and spices which should make anyone who enjoys cooking happy.
The porch sports a gas BBQ and affords privacy, comfort and incredible views of the park. When you're ready for that walk the hiking trail is an easy 5 minute walk away. The Joshua Tree Highlands, where our studio is located, is a series of sandy roads, seldom traveled, where we all take advantage of our special surroundings with an evening walk.
If your sights are more ambitious we can provide you with horseback riding, rock climbing and biking, guided by local professionals. Or, you could travel into the park and visit the Wonderland or Parker dam or hike through any of a thousand granite valleys.
We are blessed with several super music festivals and Pappy and Harriet's in Pioneer town offering a great music venue. With spiritual retreats and yoga centers, with alternative health care, with fine health food stores, for such a tiny spot you're sure to find something exciting to do. Enjoy your stay and come back.

Piper and her dog Ivy, she is a gardener, rockhound, has a hound and loves the desert.
I once had a bed and breakfast in Hawaii and when building this home could not resist but to put in a small vacation rental studio that would be charming and affordable to adventurous travelers.
It is so quiet here, there are only the sound of birds and coyote choirs. Wildlife is abundant, and happy. The starry nights are vivid, partly because of low light pollution and the lack of humidity in the atmosphere. The milky way is velvety and bright here.
We are just minutes away from the Joshua Tree National Park. There is also public lands available to enjoy right in this neighborhood. Enjoy bird and wildlife watching, hiking, beauty and deep quiet.

Niagara Gazette
Niagara Gazette — Of the more than 1,500 Niagarans that were reported to have passed away this year, there are three men among them whom I have much admired. This is not to say that they are the only men and women who died this year that I admired; it is that these three died so closely to each other.
They are Willie L. Carter, Corigan Sanoian and Arthur B. Ray.
There is no doubt that there are fewer splendors on the planet than when a full moon is shining over the fully illuminated cascades at Niagara Falls. Sad is that the 8.2-billion candlepower of lights that illuminate the waterfalls seem brighter when they are under the dark face of a new moon, and that with the passing of these three men, lately, the lights have been shining pretty brightly upon the faces of the falls. It is a dark, dark close to end of the year.
I had known Mr. Carter since my family moved across the street from his wonderful family. That was when neighbors were more than just neighbors; they were friends and family, too. The knocking upon doors or ringing of doorbells was only a formality; you were going to go in before they responded anyway. That was 1959.
There were two things that I knew best about that old sailor, Mr. Carter. One was his stability in life; in that he was always there, always the same and always glad to see you. When I was away in the Navy, despite how many times my home telephone number changed, I could always remember and dial his phone number, and I knew that a neighbor would answer so that I could get our own new number.
The other thing that I knew about him was that he loved being in the isolation of his cellar, where seemingly there was a pile of a thousand tube-type televisions awaiting repair. It was a boy's wonderland – but only when he was not there. Sometimes, when I am tooling about in my own cellar and I look across the room at the light in the ceiling, I'd think of him and not mind at all that I was somewhat like him.
Mr. Carter served with me on the board of directors of the Area One Community Preservation Corp. and he was one of the first votes that I got when I needed the board to move forward on getting the city to build nine new homes in the area. Johnny Flynn grew up in one of those nine homes. I don't know if that would have happened without Mr. Carter.
I didn't know Corigan Sanoian as well as I knew the others. I met Cory, an engineer, when I was working to help develop the Michigan Central Bridge into a regional asset that would have provided jobs and tax base to the city of Niagara Falls. It was hard going and the project failed. But what wasn't a failure was Cory's belief in both the city and in me. There were times, while doing that project, when it didn't seem that I had a friend; and then came Cory, with his words of encouragement. Like Mr. Carter, I will miss him.
And then there was Arthur Ray. I called him Uncle Art and people who didn't know either of us well thought that I was his son. With him being short, brown, round and very, very talkative, sometimes people even thought that I was him – except he rarely had a bad word to say about anyone. I am a bit freer in that area.
I knew Uncle Art for almost as long as I knew Mr. Carter. He was a celebrity, of sorts, in our community, being the first black person to have a seat on the board of education. We looked up to him. We always looked up to him. Even when I grew taller than him, I still looked up to him.
And now, with the passing of those three great men, when I will look across the face of Niagara, I will see those cataracts awash in the rays of 8.3 billion candlepower of illumination, and I will feel no better. When I will look up into the deep, cold night and will see the outlines of a new dark and faceless moon. I will see those three men in it. And when I will look behind me and off into the city that was once ablaze with bright people, such as these three, it will seem no brighter than that new moon. And I will wonder, "Who, among the new one-thousands more, will take their places?"

The Illinois House Human Services Committee approved a measure to legalize the use of medical marijuana on Wednesday, the Huffington Post reports. The final vote came in at 11-4.
The measure now moves to the Illinois House for deliberation.
House member Lou Lang (D-Skokie), who represents all or portions of Skokie and Morton Grove, has been pushing the legalization of medical marijuana for years.
Whenever asked about the possibility of Illinois becoming the nineteenth state to legalize the green leafy substance, Lang is always optimistic.
"Nobody should fear the bill," Lang told Skokie Patch. "This is about quality of life for people."
While the Human Services Committee approved the measure, nothing is set in stone.
" As the State Journal-Register notes, similar legislation failed in the General Assembly over the years — including the most recent lame-duck session in January," the Huffington Post reported.
However, other states have recently passed similar bills and Lang is hoping Illinois can become the next state to ride the green wave and help those who can seriously benefit from the drug. Recently, Massachusetts and the District of Columbia now allow the use of marijuana for medical purposes. Meanwhile, Colorado and Washington have taken it to another level, allowing citizens to smoke pot recreationally.
But for Lang the legalization of medical marijuana isn't about recreation use - it's about helping people who can benefit tremendously from the drug, he said.
"Illinois would be the nineteenth state to pass the bill (the District of Columbia also recently passed the bill)," Lang said. "And of all of those, Illinois will be the most tightly regulated."
The bill, known as HB 1, can be read here.

August 1, 2014
Eastern Kentucky students are getting a history lesson on a day to remember a very important part of American history.
The students participated in a program celebrating Constitution Day Monday at the Hazard Community and Technical College. There were guest speakers and even a trivia game to see how much the students knew about the constitution.
"The more exposed they are in secondary schools to these topics, the better citizens they will be," said UK Professor Dr. Bradley Canon.
The Constitution of the United States was completed and signed by a majority of delegates attending the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia on this day in 1787.

The NYU Community Fund has contributed over $2,600,000 to thousands of local nonprofits since its inception in 1982, supporting organizations that improve the health and well-being of New York City. The majority of this money comes directly from NYU faculty and staff who donate to the NYU Combined Campaign, the University's annual employee-based charitable giving program. Help keep the tradition strong with your pledge this year.
Your support matters. Here are some of the ways that your contributions will change lives, with examples from 2013 Community Fund recipients.
Additionally, you may dedicate your donation to a colleague or friend. We will send a card acknowledging your gift to the person you're honoring, or forward it to you to deliver personally.

Every year the Community Fund selection committee awards one outstanding organization with a grant of $5,000. This is the Thom A. Fluellen Award, established to honor the late Staff Director of Community & Government Relations and his tireless efforts for his community.
The Thom A. Fluellen award honors an organization that demonstrates the excellence that Thom made evident in his work, life, and commitment to New York University. It reminds us of his civic mindedness, his great sense of humor, and, most importantly, for teaching all who knew him how to live life to the fullest.
At his death in 1913, long-time Greenwich Village resident Theodore Greeley White bequeathed his estate to New York University for the support of charitable Greenwich Village organizations which aid young people. The NYU Office of Civic Engagement administers the estate and grants funds annually to such organizations as part of the NYU Combined Campaign, alongside the Thom Fluellen and Community Fund Awards.

Did you love to read mythology as a child? Do you love fantasy and adventure? If so, do I have a series for you! Rick Riordan wrote the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. Starting with The Lightning Thief, which was also released as a movie in 2010, and ending with The Last Olympian, many of Rick Riordan's fans were sad to reach what they thought was the end of their favorite demigods. With the release of Lost Hero: Heroes of Olympus, Book 1, fans can again cheer on their favorite demigod. This new adventure series introduces us to three new teens, Jason, Piper, and Leo. They have been labeled as "troubled teens", but are really three unclaimed children of the gods. The narration of the book rotates between three teen demigods as they discover and cope with their new found talents. The story is fast paced and the plot moves along with the teens going from one problem to the next. I truly enjoy how Riordan weaves information about Greek & Roman mythology into the story. Who is Jason? Why does he keep using Roman names for the Gods and other creatures? What about the Great Prophecy? And where in the world is Percy Jackson?

Sloane Stephens, who upset Serena Williams on Tuesday in the quarterfinals of the Australian Open, is the daughter of the late John Stephens, who was named the NFL's offensive rookie of the year as a running back for the New England Patriots in 1988. Her dad played seven seasons in the NFL, but never approached his form of '88, when he rushed for 1,168 yards and 4 TDs on 297 carries.
Stephens, the world's 25th ranked women's tennis player, was born in Plantation, Fla. Her mother, Sybil Smith, swam at Boston University. In 1988, the same year John Stephens was an NFL rookie, Smith became the first African-American woman to earn Division I first-team all-American honors. John Stephens died in an auto accident in September of 2009.
Sloane's parents divorced when she was very young. According to news reports, Sloane had met her father just a few times. According to a New York Times story, John and his daughter began to correspond by phone after he learned he had a degenerative bone disease. The Times story also revealed that John had twice been arrested on sexual assault charges and pleaded guilty to rape in 1994.
Oh, you can add John Stephens to the list of running backs who had their breakthrough game or career high against the Bills. Stephens' first 100-yard game came in a loss to the Bills at Rich Stadium in October of '88, when he rushed 25 times for 134 yards. It was the biggest rushing day of his career.

Fire damaged a home in the 3300 block of Virginia Avenue in the Springs, near Fillmore and Hancock.
The homeowner called firefighters when she noticed smoke coming from her laundry room about noon Wednesday.
Fire crews got the fire out quickly. There is heavy smoke damage in the laundry room and the first floor.
Fire crews called in the Red Cross to help the woman find somewhere to stay for now.
No one was hurt. The woman was the only person living in the house. She had several pets but they all got out safely.
The exact cause of the fire is under investigation.

Wyoming County Bureau Chief
PINEVILLE — In the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy, Dean Meadows, Wyoming County Emergency Services director, Friday provided an update to Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin, U.S. Rep. Nick Rahall, and U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin, in addition to numerous Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) representatives and state emergency services personnel.
About 5,000 Wyoming County residents were still without electricity Friday afternoon, according to officials. Crews, however, were bringing communities back online as fast as possible.
At the height of the storm Tuesday, more than 10,000 residents were without power.
"By the end of (Friday), we hope to have enough of an improvement to close the shelters," Meadows told the officials.
Getting water back in the town of Oceana remains a major priority for numerous reasons, Meadows said.
"It's not just about the 2,500 customers," Meadows emphasized.
"That's just a drop in the bucket" of the impact being without water has had on the town and surrounding areas.
"There are three schools that can't be open until the water is back on," Meadows said. "That's about 800 students.
"There's a dialysis center that is having to truck in 5,000 gallons of water every day to stay open," Meadows told the officials.
Additionally, Meadows explained, people in the surrounding communities, who have no power to prepare meals, come to Oceana because of the restaurants and convenience stores. Those businesses can't open because there is no water.
"We're running a shelter there in Oceana — without water," Meadows said.
"We're waiting for a major (disaster) declaration (from President Obama)," explained Dolph Diemont, of FEMA.
He said that will open the door for all the programs and services FEMA has to offer.
There could be funding in those FEMA programs to purchase a back-up generator for the state that could be moved from community to community as the need arises, Tomblin said.
There was a back-up generator on the way to Oceana as the officials met Friday afternoon, and officials were hopeful the water would be back on before the day was out.
Meadows is also asking Wyoming County residents who have had major storm damage to their homes to call the county Emergency Services Center at 304-732-8000 Monday-Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

I just purchased a micropro4000 from a guy I know for $400 working. I verified that a few weeks ago. I went to pick it up yesterday and when I brought it home it wont power up, just blows fuses. After researching some I found out that when it destroys fuses the amp is toast. I called Polk CS and they confirmed that.
My question is, should I offer the guy a few bucks for the box and woofer and purchase a plate amp? or should I just give it back. He has no problem giving me my money back.
I just did a brief search on parts express and saw they have a dayton 500 watt and a 1000watt plate amp that will work in the sub. If I decide to go that route does anyone have any recommendations for a solid plate amp around the $300 mark.

The Daily Star
---- — Jack (John W.) Gerard
COOPERSTOWN — Jack (John W.) Gerard of Cooperstown, passed away on Sunday, Jan. 6, 2013, at Otsego Manor in Cooperstown.
Jack, who was raised in Mamaroneck, was born in New Rochelle, to parents James C. and Anna C. (Magrino) Gerard, on Sept. 20, 1933.
He is survived by his wife of 43 years, Donna (Swartz) Gerard; and their daughter, Holly Gerard, both of Cooperstown; along with his three sons and their families, Gregory and wife Amy Gerard of Rifton, Jeffrey and wife Cris Gerard of New Paltz, and David and wife Maria Gerard of Durham, N.H. He was also blessed with two grandchildren, Nicholas Gerard of Rifton, and Ada Mae Gerard of Durham, N.H.; as well as many nephews, nieces, sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law.
The youngest child in a family of eight children, Jack was predeceased by not only his parents, but also by two brothers, (James and Michael Gerard); and three sisters, Marie Brownell, Lucille Campbell and Rose McGoey.
He is survived by two sisters, Marguerite McDonough of Vineyard Haven, Mass., and Gloria Curry of Arlington, Va.
Jack graduated from Archbishop Stepinac High School in White Plains, before enlisting in the U.S. Navy during the Korean War era. After his military duty, he attended the prestigious music conservatory, Manhattan School of Music in New York City, where he received his bachelor's degree in Music Performance (with a major in brass instruments and harmony), and his master's degree in Music (with a major in education). He furthered his education with advanced credits in administration, supervision and guidance at City College of New York, NYC.
Jack taught instrumental music at the Scarborough Day School in Scarborough, the White Plains Conservatory of Music in White Plains, the Neighborhood School of Music, Bronx, High School of Music and Art in NYC, the Riverdale School of Music in Riverdale, and in Greenburgh Central School District #7 in Hartsdale.
He was the acting music chairman in the New York City Public School's JHS 98, Bronx, from 1961 to 1965; the acting assistant principal in New York City Public School's JHS 145, Bronx. He was also the music supervisor and coordinator, as well as teacher trainer at JHS 145, from 1966 to 1968, as well as the Dean of Boys for one year during his tenure at JHS 145.
In his "spare time" while living in NYC, he was the assistant conductor of the All-Boro Band, Bronx, from 1967 to 1968, and a music education instructor at Manhattanville College, Purchase, during the summer of 1968.
He performed professionally as well, "going on the road" with The Sam Donahue big band at a tender age; performing with the Band of America (Paul Lavalle, conductor), including at the 1964 World's Fair; with the Moscow Philharmonic (during USA appearances); with the Westchester Philharmonic, the Manhattan Orchestra, and the U.S. Navy Band (1953 to 1955). Jack sat "in the pits" of many Broadway shows, was actively employed as a free-lance musician in NYC and the tri-state area, and played for television commercials while in NYC.
His varied musical career had him lecturing at Manhattanville College, Purchase, performing as soloist for the premiere of "Electronic Composition for Trombone and Tape Recorder," at Donnell Library, NYC; contracting performers for musical accompaniment for many world-famous acts such as the Royal Lippizan Stallion Show; conducting the Shrine Circus Band in Syracuse, leading his own band "The Brass Creation" for several decades; and repairing musical instruments for Holley Music in both New Paltz and Cooperstown.
In his "retirement" years Jack taught instrumental music privately, and is fondly remembered by so many students. Many of his private students, as well as his public-school students, have remained in contact with him, including several going back to his very first year of teaching! He taught his students ALL about music, rather than "just" about their particular instrument. More importantly, he taught them about discipline, perseverance and respect. His influence on their lives on.
Jack was a member of St. Mary's "Our Lady of the Lake" Roman Catholic Church, Cooperstown. His memorial Mass of Christian burial will be offered there at 1 p.m. Saturday, Jan, 19, 2013, co-officiated by Father John P. Rosson, pastor and Father Andrew Cryans. All are encouraged to share your memories of Jack.
There will be no calling hours. Interment in St. Mary's Cemetery in Index will be at a later date.
As an alternative to flowers, the family requests that you please make a donation to the Susquehanna SPCA, 4841 State Highway 28, Cooperstown, N.Y. 13326, (www.susquehannaspca.org) and plant a tree or flower in your own yard for him this summer.
Arrangements are under the supervision of Tillapaugh Funeral Service, Cooperstown.

PlayBook battery dead out of box....
Sorry if there's another thread on this but didn't see it. I'm helping my Dad who just got his PB. He has had it plugged in and the battery has not charged and was at 0%. Is this normal?.....
Just got a message that he is at 2% now. I am concerned as there have been many complaints about battery life in general here so was wondering if there are any opinions.
Just got another message that it's up to 10% so looks like it's on track now... only took an hour to get beyond 0% :s This thread can now be deleated as I guess it's a moot point.

Which Makes/Models Offer Free Scheduled Maintenance?
cdoke Posts: 14You know, I would say that from the dealerships perspective, this is a time value of money problem. Charging up-front for anticipated service costs, the company may then accrue interest on that additional sum and conducted en masse on a large scale, I am sure this would be a fairly significant sum of money. From any one individuals standpoint, the marginal benefit of keeping the money which you could accrue interest on, as opposed to paying the money now, is negligible. Unless, of course the vehicle is exceptionally expensive to maintain.
That is, I am sure, only part of it, I imagine that it is also an incentive in order to move product.
As far as suggestions, the only thing that comes to mind is something a friend told me about BMW having something of that nature.
joel0622 Posts: 3,302Should I buy the OEM warranty at the time of purchasing the car, or wait until the initial bumper to bumper warranty is close to running out?
I know this is old but just wanted to let people know in general.
You do not have to buy the Service Contract at Point of Sale, but! If you don't you incure a few things, one is a $100 surcharge if you wait until after the 12/12 has passed, plus the Service Contracts normally increase in price each year. So if you wait 3 years you pay possibly through 3 price increases

ps SMASH premiere tomorrow!
Q: Why can't I read the competition threads?
A: Competition forums on the board are available to those with a Season Pass or a premium membership How to View Kiss & Cry
Has anyone seen House of Cards on Netflix Streaming? It's directed by David Fincher and stars Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright. I've seen two episodes so far and it is a great show. Hopefully, this leads to more original shows on Netflix.
I've heard about it and will check it out for sure.
Have you seen the original British version? It's superb. Not that the American remake can't also be great, and I hope I can find it somehow since I don't get Netflix.
But do check out the British trilogy if you can: House of Cards, To Play the King, and The Final Cut. Ian Richardson is terrifying. The books (by Michael Dobbs) are pretty good too.
TV Ratings for Tuesday 2/5/2013:
I did not expect such bad ratings for the "Smash" return.
I am watching The Following. Very creepy, but good.
I think I will have a snack and take a nap before I eat and go to sleep.
Wow, those ratings for Smash are worthy of a cancel. I am sure they will give it some time but that is really really low numbers for such an expensive show. Do you think it could have had something to do with a 2 hour premiere? It lists the time as 9-11 pm. Maybe people just were not interested in investing so much time and figured they would catch a rerun or just pick up with the next episode. Weren't the ratings good last year?
"Michelle would never be caught with sausage grease staining her Vera Wang." - rfisher
I'm loving House of Cards! Spacey is awesome!
The mind of the performer is a very strange thing.
~James Galway
Watching House of Cards right now and am a bit bored.
I just finished watching Lilyhammer on Netflix. I loved the way they mixed the two languages so it works in both Norway and English speaking countries. It was like Fargo crossed with Sopranos.
And soon they have Arrested Development!

My main criticism was that it felt rushed. It almost seemed like they'd shot another 1/2 hour of story that ended up on the cutting room floor. They jumped from one part of the investigation to the next with no, well, investigation. That might have been an inexperience thing, though, so I'm hoping it will get better.
My other quibble, and this it really nit-picky (as well as hugely subjective), was that they seemed to be trying too hard to market this to a US network. One of the reasons I was interested in watching the show was that it was supposed to be Vancouver, not Vancouver-as-Seattle. But it was littered with details that screamed American to me. Like the football game with the uniformed marching band. And a black police chief/captain/whatever his rank is. (Hard to know what the decision-making process was here. If he was an actor they really wanted for the part, that's fine. But if they wanted to have a racial minority chararacter in a position of power, how about someone that actually reflects the demographics of Vancouver, like Aboriginal, Chinese-Canadian, or Indo-Canadian?)
I've been watching House of Cards and I like it. I am not absolutely hooked and I often find myself doing other things while it is on but I still want to see what happens next and where it all goes. The only bad thing about this being on Netflix is that Netflix released all the episodes at once so you watch them all within a week and then you have to wait an entire year for the next season. That's a long time.

It has been an unprecedentedly challenging year for the people of Rumford. Citizens submitted no less than four petitions to limit spending in the community and have yet to be allowed to vote on the matter.
The citizens rejected the entire budget proposed by selectmen and all but four initiated article requests in June. In July, they rejected eight of 12 budget proposals. In August, they rejected the eight articles again. In October, they continued to express their discontent by again rejecting the largest article in the budget, unclassified accounts, that included $1,119,000 for employee benefits.
It remains to be seen if Rumford citizens will once again vote against the article at an $83,336.02 increase over actual fiscal 2012-2013 spending.
Also on Nov. 5, Rumford voters are being called upon to choose who will represent them on a charter commission. Hopefully, voters will choose representatives who will work to continue the town manager form of government and who will continue public voting on the town budget articles — leaving power with the people and preserving that the imperative will of the people be respected and honored. Elected representatives should seek to produce a clean and clear town charter that protects all citizens from abuse by a few elected and appointed officials.
There are many unprecedented challenges in this community, so people should be sure to vote. It is not only a right, but an obligation of a free people.
