Indiana Excise Police seized nearly $10,000 in alleged gambling proceeds from two Southern Indiana bars Saturday.
According to an Indiana State Excise Police press release, while working enforcement details related to the Kentucky Derby, excise officers investigated alleged illegal wagering operations that took place at Resch's Tavern, off Eastern Boulevard in Clarksville, and the Riverbottom Inn, located in Mauckport.
Both bars were cited on the preliminary administrative charges of promoting professional gambling. Resch's Tavern was also cited for allegedly allowing alcoholic beverages to be taken in and out of the premises.
An investigation is ongoing to determine if the alleged illegal activity will result in criminal charges being filed, according to the release.
Indiana Excise Police Officer Brandon Thomas explained that once the report is completed it will be handed over to the Indiana Alcohol and Tobacco Commission prosecutor, who will determine if criminal charges will be filed.
The administrative citations that were preliminarily filed carry a penalty of fines, which are also determined by the prosecutor.
No owners or management were available when calls seeking comment were made to Resch's Tavern on Monday.

Oldest nurse set to retire aged 74
7:00am Tuesday 13th November 2012 in Southend
THE NHS's oldest nurse is set to retire at the age of almost 75.
Jean Colclough has been working in Southend Hospital for the last 56 years, despite suffering from a rare lung condition which should have killed her before she was 40.
But now she has decided to leave the health service at the end of December because vagaries in the law mean her pension will be adversely affected if she stays.
Jean said: "My retirement letter was the hardest I have ever had to write. "I was on my own and just sat there and grizzled. I would happily stay on.
"Fifty-six years is a long time. Just stopping is not going to be easy."
Jean, from Southend, began training as a nurse in September 1956 - the same year as the Suez crisis and Elvis's hit Heartbreak Hotel.
She wore the traditional uniform of regulation butterfly cap, pale blue dress, white apron and black lace-ups.
However, not long after qualifying in 1960, Jean was diagnosed with the aggressive condition bronchiectasi and her consultant told her she would be a "respiratory cripple" by the age of 30.
Her prognosis was so bad that, even after most of her left lung was removed, she was not expected to live past the age of 40.
But she has proved everyone wrong with her unending stamina and still covers miles and miles of corridors every night as a clinical site coordinator.
Grandmother Jean, who originally wanted to train as a doctor, but could not afford the university fees, said: "I don't think I could have done better than I have done.
"It's been lovely – every ward I worked on was the best place I had ever been."
Despite a well-earned rest beckoning, Jean has not ruled out returning to the hospital as an agency nurse.
She said: "I would certainly consider coming back on the bank. But first we have to move house."
Friend and colleague Sandra Steeples, hospital discharge coordinator, added: "Jean will be so greatly missed, and I wish I could clone her - and bottle her energy!"

It is dedication like Jean's that shows what we have to lose when the tories have finished privatising the NHS and carving up the profits for themselves.
Today it has been revealed they plan to get rid of over 60,000 NHS staff.
Tories, they're nothing but venal scum.

Had Jean retired at 60 then there would have been a vacancy for a new nurse. Whilst its appears good to stay in work until you drop it does nothing for the jobs market for young people. If everyone stays in their job forever then there is no need to pay into a pension fund and that will put more people out of work.

Well done Jean. I hope you have a long and happy retirement.

For The Herald Bulletin
ANDERSON, Ind. — Banter, protest, quarrels breakout and diffuse, then it is time for a recess. No, you are not in a courtroom, you are in Marisa Graham's kindergarten classroom at Erskine Elementary in Anderson, where she is judge, jury and above all, young mind molder.
Graham, a nine-year veteran, is in her fifth year of teaching kindergarten. While her students may bicker over who cut whom in line, Graham is concerned with other cuts, particularly the $300 million made by Gov. Mitch Daniels, which resulted in steep budget cuts.
"It has drastically affected our school system here in Anderson. Along with other factors as well with legislation that has been passed since Daniels has been in office and since we have our new superintendent of Public Education, Tony Bennett, that caused even further cuts and less money to our public schools, buildings have been closed in Anderson and staff have been cut," notes Graham.
Rick Muir, president of Anderson Federation of Teachers, adds, "There is too much government involvement in trying to make decisions for education. I think that is from federal and state level. They are not listening to the experts in the field. That is a real concern."
In Anderson, cuts have already resulted in consolidation to one high school, containing grades seven thru twelve; two intermediate schools with grades four through six and five elementary schools. Losing buildings also means losing custodial staff, secretarial staff, teachers, and administrators. School closings planned for the next school year will save approximately five million dollars.
Despite the cuts already made, an additional $6 million needs to be trimmed, resulting in increased class sizes, curriculum cuts, and the elimination of special areas such as, physical education, library, art, and music, according to Graham.
Charter and private schools have profoundly affected Anderson. When parents choose private schooling, public schools lose funds, to the tune of $6,000 per student resulting negatively in cuts to staff, buildings and curriculum., sadi Graham.
Muir agrees saying, "…the current administration, from the governor to Superintendent Bennett, are bent on diverting as much as they can into private education. This country was built on a lot of building blocks, but public education is certainly one of those, and it is being dismantled."
Graham reaffirms her dedication to traditional educational values, "Public educators do the very best they can with the resources they are given. Unlike charter and private schools, the arms of public schools are open to all children, and the teachers continue to educate those children to the best of their ability."
"We are fortunate in Anderson Community Schools to have a strong contract and a very strong union that looks out for the best interests of the children. We are not willing to increase class sizes."
According to Graham, poverty also affects a child's education in many ways.
"Children of poverty are not given the same opportunities because they do not have the economic status, knowledge of options, or transportation to go to charter or private schools."
ACS knows its students, Graham notes.
"As a public educator, we know them, we know their situation and we service those children well. They receive a great education.
"We are going to remain committed to reaching out to all children regardless of race, economic status, or special needs, but unfortunately, we are going to continue to do that with less and less money."

Many people will be celebrating the New Year tonight and, as with any party, some will have too much to drink and need a safe ride home.
MADD and AAA are joining forces again this year to offer Care Cab. It will provide a free taxi ride home to people who've had too much to drink.
MADD's Andrea Rehkamp (RAY-camp) says it's important to think before you drink.
AAA is predicting the national average price of gasoline for Labor Day this year will be the highest ever for the holiday. Spokeswoman Cheryl Parker says we're looking at a high for local gas prices as well:
"The highest for us locally was$3.75 last year on Labor Day; and, as you can see, we're already at the average of $3.93. So it's already the highest that we're seeing pretty much across the country."
Other average prices from the Cincinnati AAA office: Ohio, $3.90; Kentucky, $3.87; and Covington, $3.96.

The Tonawanda News
Tonawanda News — NIAGARA FALLS — A chemical reaction that created a cloud of chlorine gas in the basement of Gaskill Preparatory School forced the evacuation of students and staff Monday morning.
Falls fighters said they were called to the school around 9:27 a.m. and when they arrived they discovered that a school district maintenance worker had "accidentally poured a 1-gallon container of muriatic acid into approximately 20 gallons of liquid chlorine" located in a 50-gallon drum that feeds the chemicals into the school's swimming pool.
The combination of the acid and the chlorine created a "cloud of chlorine gas" that filled the school's basement. At that point, firefighters ordered the school evacuated.
Judie Glaser, a district spokeswoman, said students were promptly moved to the school's two evacuation locations, the Hyde Park and 24th Street schools, and parents were notified via the district's emergency all-call system.
"We wanted to make sure the parents were notified," Glaser said. "Those who are bused would be able to catch a bus, while 'walkers' ... would be dismissed to parents. The school contacted each parent to set up dismissal to ensure all children are accounted for before allowing them to leave."
While the children were being sent home, city fire crews called for assistance from the hazmat team at the Niagara Falls Air Reserve Station Fire Department. Testing showed that dangerous levels of chlorine were still present in the basement.
When the hazmat team arrived, they were joined by Falls firefighters in entering the basement and setting up ventilation equipment. Smoke ejectors were used to vent the fumes and meters were used to monitor air quality levels.
Firefighters tried to drain the mixture in the 50 gallon drum into the swimming pool to dilute it. Because that pumping process was slow, fire commanders on the scene instead decided to drain the chlorine mixture into 5-gallon plastic containers and then pour it directly into the pool.
Once the mixture was in the pool, chlorine levels in the air in the basement quickly dropped and the area was declared safe early Monday afternoon.
Two maintenance workers, who were involved in the incident, were taken to Niagara Falls Memorial Medical Center to be evaluated.
Students were expected back in school today.

The Apple Valley City Council clamped down on Spoon Fusion Cuisine on Thursday, denying renewal of the restaurant's liquor license—a move the Spoon's attorney has said would likely lead to the closure of the business.
The council voted 3-2 to deny the license during a public hearing, after a motion to renew the liquor license for one month with probationary conditions failed on a 2-3 vote. Apple Valley City Council member Clint Hooppaw—who voted to deny renewal—called the decision "the hardest thing I've done in two years of being here".
For nearly two hours, he and other council members debated how to handle the problematic restaurant, which has racked up eight police calls and 27 fire code violations since opening under new ownership in 2011.
The police calls included a "riot-like" fight between 20-30 people at the restaurant that occurred last October, according to Apple Valley Police Chief Jon Rechtzigel. A month earlier, officers also found security guards in possession of handguns while drinking at the establishment during a large event. In May 2012, Spoon canceled a rap music concert after Apple Valley police discovered that known criminal gang members had organized the event, Rechtzigel said.
Since the violations, restaurant owners Van Ngo and Kav Theng claim they've stopped allowing nightclub-type events hosted by third-party organizers—which were the source of most of the police calls. Apple Valley
In December 2012, the council gave the restaurant a one-month license renewal through Jan. 31 with conditions that included mandatory alcohol server training, monthly meetings with police, compliance with the fire code and no third-party events, among other conditions. Since December Fire Department officials say the restaurant has cooperated and is no longer in violation of fire codes. Apple Valley police also say the restaurant's owners are cooperating on alcohol training.
But recurring communication problems—and the restaurant's decision to advertise for several upcoming private events, including a fundraiser and a Valentine's Day party, without informing city staff—left a sour taste in some councilor's mouths.
Despite the ongoing issues, Councilor Tom Goodwin and Mayor Mary Hamann-Roland sympathized with the restaurant owners, and attributed many of the recent difficulties to cultural differences. The upcoming events, Hamann-Rolad argued, were cultural events for the Cambodian community, and didn't violate the terms of Spoon's temporary license.
But others, like Councilor Ruth Grendahl, struck a less forgiving tone.
"You keep bringing up cultural differences, and I have a real problem with this" Grendahl said, addressing Goodwin. "This isn't a cultural difference, we have rules and regulations that other businesses have to abide by, and this business has to abide by the same rules everybody else does."
"How many last chances are we going to do?" Hooppaw asked, noting that police and city officials have been working with the restaurant for months.
Ultimately, Grendahl, Hooppaw and Councilor John Bergman voted in favor of denying the liquor license. But both urged the restaurant to consider applying for a beer and wine license, rather than a full liquor license, as a possible alternative.

Oklahoma City —
Chesapeake Energy Corp. said Tuesday it is laying off 800 workers across the oil and natural gas exploration and production company, including 640 at its Oklahoma City headquarters.
The layoffs were announced in a letter that CEO Doug Lawler sent to employees. In it, he said the corporate restructuring process has made Chesapeake "poised to grow for decades to come."
"By scaling E&P support services, reducing management layers and aligning resources with a sharpened focus on accountability and efficiency, we have created a business built to deliver a sustainable and profitable future," Lawler said.

Last year was one of the worst on record as far as accidents and casualties for the motorcoach industry, which in the past has typically been one of the safest modes of transportation. If you take the amount of trips taken and compare that with the number of accidents, we're talking pretty small potatoes; however, anybody in the industry will tell you one fatality is enough.

NORMAN — Norman voters will consider a $126 million, five-year bond issue Feb. 11 in two proposals.
To make sure they had all the facts beforehand, League of Women Voters of Norman members invited Superintendent Dr. Joe Siano to discuss the future of Norman Public Schools and the 2014 bond issue Wednesday at their Hot Topic Lunch.
The bond issue is the largest ever proposed in the school district's history. For the bond issue to pass,it must carry a vote of 60 percent.
Voters will be asked to approve one proposal representing $122.5 million for renovations, safety and security, technology, athletics and annual expenditure projects, as well as a separate $3.5 million proposal for transportation. State law requires transportation be a separate proposal in school bond elections.
The $126 million bond issue is not expected to raise or lower taxes because other bonds will have been paid off by the time the new bond would hit the tax rolls. Additionally, by law, the bond issue is only allowed to be spent on capital investments. All bond issue projects will be completed in three years.
"We believe in a comprehensive approach to our school system," Siano said. "The kids in school now will get to take advantage of the bond issue projects."
Although the bond issue encompasses 90 projects, Siano focused on three key initiatives: maintaining current facilities with renovations and additions, technology and freshman academies and university centers in both high schools.
Siano said the district needed to maintain what it already has, which is why 47 percent of the bond issue would be applied to school facility additions and renovations.
"People may say, 'What's so exciting about new roofs?' But it is pretty exciting for the teachers who have leaking roofs," he said.
Siano said that this bond issue would continue to minimize the use of temporary buildings.

It's amazing the George Michael manages to keep it together at all. Having been arrested for bathroom related activity on more than one occasion (once for soliciting sex, once for drug-related activity), but his latest run in with the cops took place on the road. Michael collided with another car, and some suspected he might have been drunk. "Neither of us was charged because we were both stone cold sober," he said.
The Old Bailey has lost faith in George Michael, with a judge warning him that he faces jail after pleading guilty to his latest drug offense.
The troubled pop star fessed up Tuesday to charges stemming from a July 4 incident in which he was found next to his Range Rover after it had crashed into a London shop. The judge suspended his license and told him a jail sentence may be waiting for him
Appearing at Highbury Corner Magistrates Court, Michael admitted driving under the influence of drugs and possession of pot following the wee hours crash, where police say they found him "spaced out" and with dilated pupils.
"It is a serious matter. Your driving was extremely poor and there was an accident," Judge Robin McPhee said, adding that Michael has already had one conviction.
Three years ago, Michael was found slumped over the wheel of his car, which was blocking an intersection.
Michael, 47, whose real name is Georgios Panayiotou, spoke only to enter his pleas and confirm his identity. The former Wham! lead singer needed help from police to get through a swarm of photographers and cameramen as he arrived at the court.
After crashing into a shop, the singer climbed out of his auto and waited for cops after the 3:30 am incident, according to the Daily Mail. It was just the latest in a string of scrapes for Michael, one of the biggest stars of the 1980s. In 2007, he was arrested in London after drivers complained he was blocking the road. He pleaded guilty to driving while while under the influence of drugs and was banned from driving for two years and sentenced to community service.
At the time, he told the BBC that he smoked too much pot. Absolutely I would like to take less, no question," he said. "To that degree, it's a problem."
But he added, "I'm a happy man and I can afford my marijuana so that's not a problem."
Last year, he was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence when his Land Rover hit a truck. Back in 1998, he was arrested by LA cops in a park restroom and later pleaded no contest to engaging in a lewd act.
The Grammy award winner has sold an estimated 100 million albums as a solo artist, churning out such hits as "Careless Whisper" and "Faith."

I am not a genderless, androgynous being. I am female, I am wife, I am mother. My spouse is male, he is husband, he is father. We are responsible for contributing the feminine and the masculine to shape, mold, and rear our children. Our contributions are equal, not same. For my duty to be replaced by a male, or my husband's duty to be replaced by a female is foolish and naïve thinking at best; cruel and unusual punishment at worst. Children have the best shot at success when they are raised by their married, biological parents. Marriage is a child centered institution, not adult centered. To change this premise, is to further cause children pain, despair, neglect, and abuse.

Founded in 1988 in Taipei, Taiwan, QLINK has spent the last 25 years producing some of the cheapest scooters and dualies on the market. QLINK might not be a household name in the U.S., but the company, whose product line includes bikes and scoots produced by a dozen different Chinese manufacturers, has established distribution networks in Mexico, Brazil, Hungary, Nigeria, Taiwan, and China. Currently, QLINK operates three distribution centers in the U.S., but the brand is growing by leaps and bounds, thanks in part to the popularity of models like the affordable Zip.
In 2010, QLINK revamped the Zip and gave it a new name, the Rave 150, but 2009 models of this Chinese-made scooter still pop up now and then in the American resale market. Unfortunately, the QLINK Zip's combination electric/kick starter has been known to give riders some trouble, especially in cooler climates, but once it's up and running, the Zip proves to be a handy, mid-sized scooter, perfect for urban commuters.
The QLINK Zip is powered by an 149.5cc single-cylinder 4-stroke, which is fed by a teeny-tiny Mikuni carb. QLINK has dropped the Zip on matching 14-inch wheels, paired with 100/80 front and rear tires.
The 2009 QLINK Zip may not be the burliest scoot arounder, but it has style to spare, with aggressive modern lines, a special front fairing, a tuned sport exhaust system, and passenger handrails. Storage is minimal, but you should be able to fit a small bag into the under-seat compartment.

NORMAN — Big offensive plays and stingy defense keyed the Southmoore's victory over Mustang tonight.
The SaberCats defeated the Broncos 44-14 to close out the regular season with a 7-3 overall record and 4-3 mark in district play. Mustang fell to 6-4 on the season and 3-4 in district.
SaberCat senior running back Karltrell Henderson led the Southmoore offensive attack with 191 yards on 23 carries and one touchdown.
"All of the credit goes to my guys up front," Henderson said. "The offensive line game me some big holes to run through tonight. I thought our offense played well. We made big plays when we had to make them."
Southmoore got on the scoreboard first with a safety on Mustang quarterback Frankie Edwards. On their next offensive possession the SaberCats connected on a double-reverse pass from senior quarterback Tre Edwards to senior wide receiver Jonathan Martin for a 54-yard touchdown to give Southmoore a 9-0 lead.
Mustang responded with a touchdown drive of their own, but a missed extra point made the score 9-6 SaberCats at the end of the first quarter.
On their first drive of the second quarter Southmoore converted a fourth and 17 on a pass form Edwards to Martin. They capped off the drive with a seven-yard touchdown run by senior running back Jackson Stallings.
The Broncos came back with a Frankie Edwards pass to senior wide receiver Travis Mitchell for a seven-yard touchdown to make the score 16-12 Southmoore.
With under two minutes to play in the first half the SaberCats faced a fourth and 14 from the Mustang 45-yardline. Southmoore elected to go for it, and they scored a touchdown on an Edwards pass to junior wide receiver Jalen Adams giving the SaberCats a 23-12 lead at half-time.
Mustang's defense played tough in the third quarter, not allowing Southmoore to move the ball. The Broncos forced a safety on the SaberCats, making the score at the end of the third quarter 23-14 Southmoore.

On The Fly: Closing Wrap
Stocks on Wall Street were higher today, but were still lower for the week, as concerns in Europe have come back to the forefront of investors' minds. Today's modest bounce was not enough to make up for the declines seen in three of the other four sessions earlier in the week. ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S., the June federal budget statement showed a surplus of $70.5B for the month, compared to analysts' forecast for a $79B surplus. COMPANY NEWS: Shares of Wells Fargo (WFC) slipped 32c, or 0.62%, to $51.49 after the largest mortgage lender in the U.S. posted earnings of $1.01 a share that matched analysts' consensus forecast. Wells did note that its credit performance continued to improve in Q2 and CEO John Stumpf said he is "optimistic about the future" for the bank... Lorillard (LO) advanced $2.92, or 4.63%, to $66.01, while Reynolds American fell 51c, or 0.82%, to $61.75, after the two cigarette makers confirmed that they are holding talks about a possible merger, as has been speculated by various media reports in recent weeks... In another update to an ongoing M&A story, Japan's Nikkei reported that Sprint's (S) corporate parent, Softbank (SFTBF), has reached an agreement to acquire T-Mobile (TMUS) from Deutsche Telecom (DTEGY), clearing the way for the long-speculated merger between the third and fourth largest wireless carriers in the U.S. Following the new story, Sprint shares finished the day up 30c, or 3.64%, to $8.55, while T-Mobile rose 62c, or 1.89%, to $33.50. MAJOR MOVERS: Among the notable gainers was Ruckus Wireless (RKUS), which advanced 87c, or 7.9%, to $11.88 after the FCC announced that it would allocate new funds to subsidize the launch of WiFi networks in schools and libraries. Also higher was Amazon.com (AMZN), which climbed $18.28, or 5.57%, to $346.20 after consulting firm ChannelAdvisor (ECOM) reported that the company's same-store sales growth had accelerated significantly in June compared with May. Among the noteworthy losers was Rent-A-Center (RCII), which dropped $3.18, or 10.94%, to $25.88 after the company warned that its revenue and earnings for Q2 will not meet expectations. Also lower were shares of industrial and construction supply retailer Fastenal (FAST), which fell $2.00, or 4.16%, to $46.15 after its Q2 revenue missed analysts' consensus view and the company reported plans to close 45 stores. INDEXES: The Dow was up 28.74, or 0.17%, to 16,943.81, the Nasdaq was up 19.29, or 0.44%, to 4,415.49, and the S&P 500 was up 2.83, or 0.14%, to 1,967.51.

Reynolds American confirms discussions about business combination
Reynolds American (RAI) confirms that it is in discussions with Lorillard (LO) regarding a possible acquisition of Lorillard. The discussions are consistent with RAI's strategy of considering a variety of options to enhance shareholder value. British American Tobacco, RAI's largest shareholder, is participating in these discussions. If the transaction proceeds, BAT expects to support the transaction by subscribing for additional shares in RAI and would maintain its existing 42% equity position in RAI. Imperial is also involved in these negotiations as a possible purchaser of brands and other assets from Lorillard and RAI. There is no assurance that any agreement will be reached by any of the parties. Unless circumstances dictate otherwise, RAI does not intend to comment further on these matters.

Lorillard, Reynolds deal still most likely outcome, says Wells Fargo
After it was reported that British American Tobacco (BTI) is potentially in talks to acquire the 58% of Reynolds American (RAI) that it doesn't own, Wells Fargo says it still believes a combination between Reynolds and Lorillard (LO) remains the most likely outcome. The firm thinks Susan Cameron was not brought back to run Reynolds to help facilitate a sale transaction to BAT. Wells recommends buying shares of Lorillard on any pullback should a deal between BAT and Reynolds be announced, as it thinks that ultimately a transaction to buy Lorillard would likely follow.
On The Fly: Midday Wrap
Stocks on Wall Street were moderately higher at midday, helped in part by better than expected earnings from Alcoa (AA), solid monthly numbers from the airlines sector, and a bounce from the two day losing streak that had seen the S&P lose 1% and the Nasdaq pullback by more than 2%. The market has been unable to gather any upside momentum and has moved in a narrow range throughout the morning, as investors await the release of the Fed�s FOMC minutes. ECONOMIC EVENTS: The minutes from the Federal Open Market Committee meeting held June 17-18 are scheduled to be released at 2:00 pm ET. In China, the producer-price index declined 1.1% from a year earlier, compared with a consensus forecast for a 1% drop. China's consumer-price index rose 2.3%, below projections for a 2.4% gain. COMPANY NEWS: Alcoa swung to a second-quarter profit of 18c a share on an adjusted basis, beating the consensus estimate of 7c a share, as its revenue also topped expectations. The aluminum producer, whose report is widely considered to mark the start of an earnings season, said its transformation is in "high gear" and that its cost position continues to improve. The stock rose 5% near midday following its report. MAJOR MOVERS: Among the notable gainers was AeroVironment (AVAV), which develops a portfolio of products and services for unmanned aircraft and efficient energy systems. The stock rallied 14% after the company reported better than expected fourth quarter results. Also higher was Reynolds American (RAI), which rose more than 2.5% after the U.K.'s Daily Mail reported that British American Tobacco (BTI), which currently holds a 42% stake in Reynolds, is speculated to be "on the verge" of buying out the remainder of its U.S. peer that it does not already own. Among the noteworthy losers was IT infrastructure technology provider Gigamon (GIMO), which was downgraded by at least five firms and plunged 32% after the company lowered its Q2 revenue guidance, citing challenges closing deals. Also lower following its earnings reports was specialty storage and organizational product retailer The Container Store (TCS), which fell 10%. INDEXES: Near midday, the Dow was up 36.86, or 0.22%, to 16,943.48, the Nasdaq was up 18.93, or 0.43%, to 4,410.39, and the S&P 500 was up 4.59, or 0.23%, to 1,968.30.
Reynolds rises as BAT said to contemplate total takeover
Shares of cigarette manufacturer Reynolds American (RAI) are higher this morning following a report that British American Tobacco (BTI) is close to a deal to buy the stake in Reynolds it does not already own. WHAT'S NEW: The Daily Mail reported that British American Tobacco, which currently holds a 42% stake in Reynolds, is speculated to be "on the verge" of buying out the 58% of its U.S. peer that it does not already own. WHAT'S NOTABLE: A deal for Reynolds, whose brands include Kill, Camel, Winston and Salem, by British American Tobacco would stop any plans Reynolds might already have to buy Lorillard (LO), which makes Newport menthol cigarettes and electronic cigarettes. CNBC's David Faber said on July 3 that Reynolds was on track to buy Lorillard "within weeks," and added that Imperial Tobacco (ITYBY) would likely buy some of the divested assets as a result of the transaction. Faber noted at the time that British American Tobacco was likely to build a position in Reynolds. ANALYST REACTION: According to the Daily Mail, Citigroup has said it would be "advantageous" for British American Tobacco to acquire all of Reynolds, as its earnings per share would be boosted by 10%-13% and give it access to "one of the best" global e-cigarette platforms. The firm believes a total acquisition would allow British American Tobacco "total freedom" to deploy Reynolds' intellectual property on e-cigarettes. PRICE ACTION: Reynolds American shares are up $1.62, or 2.64%, to $62.93 in mid-morning trading. Meanwhile, British American Tobacco shares trading in New York are down 46c to $121.51 and Lorillard is up 40c to $63.33.

British American rumored 'on verge' of deal to buy out Reynolds, Daily Mail says
British American Tobacco (BTI) is speculated to be "on the verge of a mega deal" to buy the 58% cigarette peer Reynolds American (RAI) that it does not already own, according to the Daily Mail. By doing so, it would stop any plans Reynolds might have to buy another company in the industry, Lorillard (LO), according to the report.

OK, it's live! I've put up a new version of the job board specifically for jobs in India, jobs.joelonsoftware.co.in.
To help fill it up, posting a job is only $50—about 2200 rupees.
Unlike the huge boards, Monsterindia, Naukri.com, etc., a job posted to Joel on Software will get far fewer resumes, but they will be of much higher quality, and as usual, we'll return your money if you're not completely satisfied.
You're reading Joel on Software, stuffed with years and years of completely raving mad articles about software development, managing software teams, designing user interfaces, running successful software companies, and rubber duckies.
I'm Joel Spolsky, co-founder of Fog Creek Software, a New York company that proves that you can treat programmers well and still be highly profitable. Programmers get private offices, free lunch, and work 40 hours a week. Customers only pay for software if they're delighted. We make Trello, which lets you organize anything, together, FogBugz, enlightened issue tracking software for bug tracking, and Kiln, which provides distributed version control and code reviews.

Some Athens City Council members say they misunderstood a proposal by Athens Utilities to begin rounding customer bills up to the next dollar in order to create a special fund for community grants.
So, they plan to slow implementation of the program to give residents more time to join or opt out.
During a work session Monday, Athens Utilities General Manager Gary Scroggins had briefed the City Council on the program, which is designed to provide community grants in Athens and Limestone County. The council approved the measure during the meeting that followed.
Under the rules of the program, Athens Utilities would begin rounding customer bills on Jan. 1, 2013.
On Thursday, Mayor Ronnie Marks, Council President Jimmy Gill and Councilman Harold Wales said they wanted to give customers time to learn more about the program and make an informed decision about whether to participate or opt out. The new City Council, including Wales, will vote Nov. 13 to change the effective date of the program to April 1, giving customers three additional months, said Athens Utilities Customer Relations Manager Amy Golden.
She said this is how the program works:
Athens Utilities will automatically round each customer's utility bill up to the next dollar. For example, a bill of $73.66 would become $74.00. The extra cents from each participating customer's bill would be collected and placed into a special account to be used to provide grants to local non-profit organizations that apply for a specific need, she said.
An advisory board of Athens and Limestone County community members would recommend how the money could be spent, Golden said. The mayor would appoint members to the advisory board, and the council would vote on those appointments, she said.
Golden said the advisory board would review all grant proposals, adhering to strict guidelines regarding use of the money. (Grant applications must specify what the funds would be used for, and each organization receiving a grant must sign a legal document agreeing that the funds will only be spent for the purpose specified in the application.) All funds would stay in Limestone County.
"Athens Utilities realizes Limestone County is a generous community, and customers may want to support their specific charities," Golden said. "Opting out of the program is simple, and customers do not have to provide a reason why they are opting out."
To opt out, call Customer Accounts at 256-233-8750 and provide your name, address and phone number.
For more information about the program, call Golden at 256-262-1525.

I'm not going to go all Jim Mora on you and ask what playoffs are. After all, your "suffering" is just beginning.
But the Stanley Cup playoffs did, in fact, start this week and that means CBC's annual montage to get your blood flowing. As usual, the folks north of the border did an incredible job.
This one has gone all over the Internet the last couple days but since I don't get CBC (Verizon FIOS, work on that!!!), I had not seen it until yesterday.
Great stuff. Campbell-Umberger makes it. So does an old black & white interview with Tim Horton at 2:20. And Chills when you hear the voices of the likes of Danny Gallivan and Foster Hewitt. (Don't know? Google 'em, kids)

California Air Resources Board Maps Air Polluters
The California Air Resources Board has created a map that shows the state's biggest emitters of greenhouse gases. It is a significant step in the development of California's Cap and Trade program.
On the new Google Earth map are 625 facilities that each produce more than 25,000 metric tons of greenhouse gases annually. The map breaks down facilities by industry, zip code and emissions. But, Stanley Young with the Air Resources Board says state-to-state comparisons aren't yet available.
"The U.S. EPA does not at this point include the Google Earth application, so you can't compare one facility to another."
The map also gives no information about the facilities besides the type of pollution they create. Obadiah Bartholomy with the Sacramento Municipal Utility District hopes that changes.
"Our Cosumnes Power Plant, which is one of the largest emitters, also happens to be one of the top-ten cleanest, most efficient natural gas-burning facilities in the country."
CARB says the information is critical to establishing the Cap and Trade program that goes into effect January 1st.
You can explore the map at the CARB website here.

Feb. 10, 2012
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- If everything goes to plan, Florida State will start the 2012 college football season with an abundance of talent at quarterback. How much talent? Six scholarship-athletes worth.
While Jameis Winston will have a decision to make this summer about his future depending on when he hears his name called during Major League Baseball's draft, fellow signee Sean Maguire will definitely join FSU's football program in time for the start of summer classes on July.
And even though it's more than likely that Maguire will redshirt in his first season as a Seminole, head coach Jimbo Fisher couldn't hide his excitement about adding the Sparta, N.J. native to the 'Noles' football roster.
"Very good arm. Played in a run-oriented offense," Fisher said at his National Signing Day press conference. "Guy that can throw on the run. Athletic. Good guy. Tough guy. Plays with a chip on his shoulder. Natural leader. I love Sean Maguire. I think he's going to be a heck of a player, I really do. I think he's going to be a very good player; very competitive for what we do. I like him."
Despite playing in a Wing-T offense for Seton Hall Preparatory School, FSU offensive coordinator James Coley said that when Maguire did get to throw the football "he was extremely accurate."
His skill-set and his background in a run-first offense is much like redshirt freshman quarterback Jacob Coker, who enrolled at FSU last year after playing in a high school offense that didn't pass all that often. But like Coker, Maguire has the athleticism, smarts and intangibles that Fisher covets in his quarterbacks.
Maguire is "just a guy who is charismatic and is a leader," Coley said.
When the 6-foot-3, 200-pounder gets to Tallahassee, he will join a depth chart that already features incumbent starter EJ Manuel as well as backups Clint Trickett, Will Secord and Coker.
Add in the nation's No. 1 quarterback recruit in Winston and Florida State is set up for an interesting spring in 2013 when all five quarterbacks will compete for the Manuel's vacated starting job.
Number Watch: Maguire wore No. 15 in high school but that is the current jersey of junior wide receiver Greg Dent.

A Topographical Dictionary of England, Volumes 1 - 2
A Topographical Dictionary of England, Volumes 1 - 2
1.236 records
A Topographical Dictionary of England. Samuel Lewis. (1831). This present offering is a reprint of the original 1831 edition, one of only two editions of the Lewis Dictionary
that will lead the genealogist back to the English parishes and chapelries that are of importance in seeking probate records. In alphabetical order, every county, city, borough, market town, post town, parish, chapelry, township, hamlet, tything, and hundred in England is accurately recorded and described. With respect to counties, information furnished includes the following: situation, extent, and population of the county; statistics and history of all civil and ecclesiastical jurisdictions; and accounts of the courts of assize and quarter sessions. With respect to cities, boroughs and market towns, information given includes: situation and bearing from nearest county town; population and local institutions; and markets, municipal government, courts, and religious establishments. Concerning parishes, data provided covers the townships and chapelries which the parishes comprise, their archdeaconries and dioceses, and, if of exempt ecclesiastical jurisdiction, the peculiar court to which the parish belongs. In townships, chapelries, hamlets, and tythings forming civil divisions of parishes, the same arrangement of data is given, but with respect to villages and hamlets which are not recognized divisions, they are described under their respective parishes. Key to the work (for the genealogist) is the fact that even the most obscure place in England is identified in relation to a parish and in most cases to a specific church. But over and above its obvious genealogical value, the Dictionary is a fascinating and illuminating work in itself, and it brings to life the ancestral homes and villages which until now have existed in name only, or as part of family lore and tradition.Genealogical.com publishes genealogy books and CDs. Whether you are just beginning to explore your family tree or are an experienced researcher looking for in-depth genealogy data, Genealogical.com can provide you with the resources you need. We publish over 2,000 genealogy books and compact discs featuring colonial genealogy, Irish genealogy, immigration, royal ancestry, family history, and genealogy methods and sources.
