"Though Lecavalier's agent Kent Hughes said Saturday he had not spoken to Lawton, he welcomed the sentiment he has been trying to get out of Tampa Bay for a while." So my question is this: if Lawton truly has no intentions of trading Vinny, then why didn't he bother giving private assurances of that fact to Vinny and his agent when they asked for them? My guess - and it is only a guess - is that it's because Lawton is unable to find any takers for Lecavalier and his contract extension at this time, so he can say something like that and probably mean it. That doesn't mean that Vinny won't be traded if another team is interested after all, though.
I don't know how far and wide this has carried since I saw it first mentioned in a St. Petersburg Tiems article last week, but Vincent Lecavalier wants to stay in Tampa. That isn't news (though...

The Tonawanda News
Since construction began earlier this summer on a new sewer line in the town, many residents have been seen pulling up a lawn chair to watch the work.
Over the next few weeks, they'll have plenty to look at as the Parker-Fries Sewer Project ramps up, Water Resources Director Ken Maving said during Monday's town board meeting.
"There's a lot coming up in the near future here," Maving said.
Since beginning at Parker Boulevard and Glenalby Road, the project has moved south along Parker. Kandey Co., the West Seneca contractor handling the work, has proceeded approximately 1,500 feet down Parker, Maving reported. "They've made great progress because the weather's been very good," he said.
Beginning Thursday, Parker Boulevard will be closed between Brompton Road and Greenhaven Terrace. Northbound traffic on Parker will be detoured to Woodstock Avenue, then to Greenhaven Terrace and back onto Parker. Southbound traffic on Parker will be detoured onto the same roads.
"We're doing shoring operations behind Parker Station at the corner of Woodstock, and that's going to be a sizable pit — 40-by-60 foot, about 35 feet deep, that they will be dropping a boring machine into to make a boring path, and they're going to be boring towards Parker Boulevard, just north of Brompton," Maving said. The town won't be closing off Brompton or the underpass to the I-290, he added. Homeowners in that area will have access to local traffic.
Once crews get past Braxmar, the intersection at Brighton Road and Parker Boulevard will be closed for several weeks. "We'll have to take the traffic light down and traffic will be detoured down Braxmar both ways," Maving said. That closure is expected to begin the week of Aug. 23.
As a result of the upcoming closures, town officials have been in contact with Ken-Ton School District and the NFTA to work out any potential busing issues.
So far, Maving said, the project has gone well. "The residents have been terrific. They have been very understanding," he said.
"It's kind of a source of entertainment for a lot of people. They're actually out there in lawn chairs watching what's going on," Maving said, adding that children have taken a particular interest in seeing the big construction equipment operate.
A third public information meeting on construction activities is planned for early October.
In other business Monday night, Town Supervisor Anthony Caruana reported that the town will not participate in an early retirement incentive program put forth by Gov. David Paterson for the state's hourly municipal workers.
Caruana said the possible savings weren't enough to make it beneficial for the town to offer the early retirement incentive.
The town's hourly workers union made some proposals, but what they wanted in return would have negated the savings, Personnel Director Charles Naughton said. "Together those two items didn't jive," he said, adding that the savings would be insignificant over time.

Unfortunately a recent series of Forbes analyses concerning NCAA athletic revenue have been gaining popularity and citations across the net, despite being fairly inaccurate for the most part. Once again, supposed journalists have opted for laziness over actually doing the legwork and filing multiple FOIA requests. Please be advised that any information obtained from the Department of Education's Equity in Athletics cutting tool is not reliable. That data is compiled to measure gender equity in spending, and as such does not distinguish between sources of revenue. This has the nasty effect of treating direct institutional support as revenue, essentially allowing athletic departments to cook their books and falsely claim a profit. Athletic programs essentially have to compile two different reports each year. There's the one they send to the DoE, but there's another one that's sent to the NCAA which has to follow normal accounting practices. The NCAA aggregates this data into general reports, but does not release specific information for any one program. Looking at these reports is how the NCAA can come to conclusions like only 14 FBS athletic departments made money last year. According to their aggregate data the average program lost $10,164,000. (Using the Generated Revenues figures, defined as not including Direct Institutional Support, Indirect Institutional Support, Student Fees, and Governmental Support.) The NCAA includes a sport-specific breakdown on page 36, which show that football and men's basketball on average do make money. My previous writeup on this subject, which is somewhat of a pet issue, is available here.

The Meadowbrook-Lee development agreement was unanimously approved by Cleveland Heights City Council this week, the Sun News reports.
The for The Orlean Company's proposed $11.4 million residential and commercial building at Meadowbrook and Lee roads was unanimously approved by the Cleveland Heights-University Heights School Board last month.
This development will generate about $70,000 annually for the schools over 11 years. Without the abatement the development would generate around $300,000 annually — but a school board member noted that, with nothing on the empty lot, it generates no money.
Cleveland Heights Planning and Development Director Richard Wong also said at a school board meeting that it would contribute to the aesthetics of the Cedar Lee Business District and neighborhood.
"It's a beautifully functioning district with a hole right in the center, and we have this project to connect. So it connects north, south, encourages pedestrian activity and, in my opinion, it's beautiful," Wong said.
But some residents have spoken out against the development.
Cleveland Heights resident Fran Mentch spoke at the Nov. 6 school board meeting and asked why the developer needed an 80 percent abatement — why they couldn't get a lower abatement that wouldn't need approval the CH-UH School Board.
"It is clear that the decision tonight was based on the relationship between the city council and the school board and that the citizens and their money were irrelevant. Citizens who watch the proceedings on video will see that the city council and school board bargained about the taxes to be paid on the parking garage and future support of the bond issue. The Meadowbrook-Lee project was handed over to the developer," Mentch said.
The four-story, 77-unit building will house studio, one and two bedroom apartments ranging from 513 square feet to 1,138 square feet, according to early proposals. Though Stuart Friedman, spokesman for the Orlean Company, said it's too soon to talk exact rent prices, rates will likely be "a little bit north of a $1.50 a square foot."
The drawings include a bike storage area, fitness room, theatre and a courtyard with green space. Photos of other Orlean Company projects show kitchens opening out to living room and dining room spaces, hardwood floors, tear drop and spotlight fixtures and stainless steel appliances. Friedman noted the buildings would have features that older Cleveland Heights buildings do not, like air conditioning, and will follow green zoning standards.
The ground floor units will house commercial and retail space.

Cesar Perales, Secretary of State of New York, detailed Governor Andrew Cuomo's plan for New York. He presented a powerpoint and fielded questions at Ramapo Town Hall Monday night. He looked at several aspects from economic development to education standards.
Earlier Patch Posts on Cuomo's State of the State plan:
The governor's Progressive Agenda looks at:
- Minimum Wage
- Marijuana
- Housing
- Women's Equality Act
Minimum Wage
According to Perales' presentation, the current New York minimum wage is unlivable at only $14,616 per year because the average annual cost of …
- gas is $1,270
- electricity is $1,339
- auto insurance is $1,413
- groceries is $6,576
- child care is $10,750
- housing is $15,660
19 other states have higher minimum wages than NY and the state is behind other border statesState Min. Wage NY 7.25 NJ 7.25 PA 7.25 RI 7.40 ME 7.50 MA 8.00 CT 8.25 VT 8.40
Cuomo plans to raise minimum wage to $8.75 an hour.
"If you increase the minimum wage, that means more money will be spent in the New York economy," said Perales. "With poor people, it gets spent and gets spent quickly. It also will (raise wages) for those working above minimum wage too."
"I'm a former restaurant owner, small business owner," said Pat Withers, Ramapo Councilman. "Alex Gromack came to me ten years ago when he was head of the wages and gambling committee. He wanted to bring in the … casinos into restaurants. What we saw was that New York State started opening up surrounding casinos, like Monticello and Empire (City Casino) When we had Quick Draw come in, we lost a lot of business to Monticello and Empire. Alex Gromack had a very good idea at that time of bringing in Quick Draw to help out small restaurants. However, increasing the minimum wage, I ask to you tread lightly on that as well. I wish I had that corporate support, but I know what it's like to pay the O&R bill (and other bills). When you have 15 or 16 employees and you're paying (a higher) minimum wage, it does add up. I support giving people a higher rate, but the state has to help out small businesses."
In Cuomo's presentation, it reads: "We are one New York community. No discrimination."
- 49,800 arrests were made in NYC for marijuana possession, more than any other offense.
- 82 percent —Black and Hispanic
- 18 percent — other
- 69% are under the age of 30.
Cuomo's plan is to tackle the stigma that comes with arrests made under "public view" marijuana. The challenge is that the public "Stop and Frisk" stigmatizes, criminalizes, creates a permanent record. Marijuana on a person is a violation. Marijuana in public view is a misdemeanor so there must be parity.
Cuomo plans to decriminalize public view with 15 grams or less.
- Mistaken eyewitness identifications contributed to approximately 75% of wrongful convictions overturned by DNA evidence.
- False confessions contributed to approximately 25% of wrongful convictions overturned by DNA evidence.
A wrongful conviction protects no one and you are innocent until proven guilty
Innocence Protections in the Justice System
- We propose requiring blind administering of eyewitness photo identifications.
- We propose videotaped confessions for suspects in violent crimes, including homicide and related offenses and sex crimes.
Cuomo plans to implement HOUSE NY—a new affordable housing program.
$1 billion will produce and preserve over 14,000 units of affordable housing in the next five years
Women's Equality Act
Cuomo's 10-point Women's Equality Act is as follows:
- Shatter the glass ceiling: Pass a real equal pay law (Treble damages for underpayment or discrimination).
- Have zero tolerance for sexual harassment in all workplaces (Would apply to all businesses regardless of size).
- Strengthen employment, lending & credit discrimination laws (Allow for the recovery of attorneys' fees for employment & lending/credit discrimination cases).
- Strengthen human trafficking laws (Increase penalties)
- End family status discrimination (Prohibit denying promotion or hiring based upon family status).
- Prevent landlords from denying housing to qualified tenants based on the source of funds (e.g. Section 8 housing assistance)
- Stop housing discrimination for victims of domestic violence.
- Stop pregnancy discrimination once and for all (Would require analysis that reasonable accommodations be made in the workplace).
- Protect victims of domestic violence by strengthening order of protection laws (requiring orders in native language and allowing for testimony by video-conference).
- Protect a woman's freedom of choice.
Enact the Reproductive Health Act because it's her body, it's her choice.
"There are still issues surrounding abortion, where it has criminal implications. We need to move it so that it is a health-related issue, not a criminal one," said Perales.

This trip has been beyond amazing so far, and it's only the second day!
Today was an all body and mind experience, which I personally feel, has brought our team closer together. We hiked in the Cockscomb Jaguar reserve in hopes of seeing a Jaguar, but sadly we did not. We hiked up to Ben's Bluff, an overlook of a section of the reserve that was 1290 ft. high.
This hike was a literal uphill battle for everyone for the heat, the humidity, the all-upward climb, the lack of jaguars, etc. was daunting. However, everyone was encouraging to one another saying "You can do it!" and "You're doing a great job!" Some would stop to hold out a hand for support through tough areas. And others would laugh and tell jokes, which helped keep the mind off of the climb....Click here to read more.

The band that brought us "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" is missing its gig in Raleigh tonight.
Aerosmith postponed tonight's show at Time Warner Cable Music Pavilion and another scheduled for Thursday in Charlotte, citing an unspecified "artist injury." Guitarist Joe Perry on his Twitter account asked fans to "pray 4 [frontman Steven Tyler's] speedy return."
The band's Web site says the shows will be rescheduled, and tickets for this week's concerts will be honored on the new dates, which have not been announced.

By AMANDA LOVIZA VICKERY
Glasgow Daily Times
Barren County Sheriff Chris Eaton's defense attorney is seeking a dismissal of Eaton's felony convictions or a new trial. Eaton was convicted of witness tampering charges following a trial in U.S. District Court earlier this month.
Frankfort attorney J. Guthrie True filed a motion for judgment of acquittal and alternative motion for a new trial Thursday in Eaton's case.
Eaton was convicted May 9 at the end of a nine-day federal trial on two charges of witness tampering, for directing two deputies to include false information in reports they wrote related to the Feb. 24, 2010, arrest of Billy Randall Stinnett. Stinnett's arrest was under scrutiny by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, because the law enforcement officers involved in the arrest were accused of beating Stinnett after he was in handcuffs. During trial, however, Eaton and defendants deputy Aaron Bennett and Barren-Edmonson drug task force detective Eric Guffey were all acquitted of assaulting Stinnett and making false statements to the FBI regarding the arrest.
The jury's instructions stated that in order to find Eaton guilty of counts 4 and 5, the two charges of witness tampering, Eaton had to knowingly intimidate deputies Steve Runyon and Joseph Adam Minor; he acted with the intent to hinder communication of information to federal investigators; and the information had to relate to the commission or possible commission of a federal offense.
Runyon and Minor each testified that the false information Eaton directed them to provide in their reports was related to whether Stinnett was armed and how or where a knife was found at the scene of the arrest. That information "is completely irrelevant and immaterial" to the allegation that Eaton and other officer assaulted Stinnett after he was handcuffed, True wrote in his motion.
A full story will be provided in the Friday, May 24, print and digital Glasgow Daily Times. http://glasgowdailytimes.cnhi.newsmemory.com/

I look forward to helping you meet your performing arts goals. There is nothing more beneficial to your well-being and contentment than participating in the arts!
When I was a little girl, I begged my parents for piano lessons.... and then flute lessons... and then saxophone lessons, and then oboe lessons... and then voice lessons.... and the list goes on and on! They couldn't keep me away from music and theatre.
I studied music and theatre in college as well as having earned a Master's degree in Health and Wellness Education. Music, theatre and the performing arts have been my passion since I was a child. I am lucky enough to enjoy doing what I love for my career.
I am an award- winning educator. I spent ten years a public school teacher and was proud to be nominated several times for TEACHER OF THE YEAR and also was honored two times as a statewide regional finalist for the prestigious HEB Excellence in Education Award.
Your goals are just one click away!
Music and theatre? Poetry reading? Public speaking? Need help writing a story? Editing? Life direction and coaching? Parenting and discipline? Healthy weight loss?
I am here to help you find your path!
Come join me in the world of the arts. Your health and wellness depend on it! Today is the day to start fulfilling your dream! All ages welcome and encouraged. Little ones and "grown-ups" too... It's never too late!
*** Lesson Details ***
Most of all: Lessons will be fun and enjoyable.
I will encourage you, without pressure, to grow in music and to meet your personal goals.
Lessons are paced at YOUR speed to meet your needs in your own comfort zone.
However, don't be fooled....I will challenge you to push yourself beyond what you ever dreamed possible!
Let's get started :)
...I may have lesson availability beyond what is shown here on the website. Please don't hesitate to contact the Take Lessons office with your request. I will do my best to fit you in to my schedule.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Piano, flute, piccolo, drum pad, xylophone, auto harp, trombone, trumpet, french horn, and various other instruments I have collected over the years! In addition, I have a huge library of plays, musicals, librettos, and sheet music. Collecting all things music and theatre is a bit of a hobby of mine...

My name is Blake C. and I teach any style of guitar music, but specialize in Classical and Rock Guitar techniques. �
I have been playing guitar for more than 30 years and am a member of the American Federation of Musicians, Local 232-278 and National Association for Music Education. �I have more than 20 years professional performance, session work, and instruction.
I was awarded the President's Scholarship in Classical Guitar Performance by the American Conservatory of Music in Chicago, Illinois in 1990 and was awarded a full tuition scholarship in Classical Guitar Performance by the Chicago Musical College in 1991. �
My primary Classical Guitar Instructor at both institutions was Paul Henry. �I also studied Rock Guitar with Dave Uhrich while attending both institutions and privately studied Jazz Guitar with Scott Reed.
I studied voice with Audrey Evans at the American Conservatory of Music and Robert Long at the Chicago Musical College.
I have participated in Classical Guitar Master Classes with Hubert Kappel, Dale Kavanagh, Eleftheria Kotzia, Bruce Holzman, Stephen Aron, Raphaella Smits, Richard Provost, Nicholas Goluses, and William Buonocore.
*** Lesson Details ***
I design lessons individually according to the needs and "wants" of each student. �I specialize in developing and correcting technique in technique to improve the student's overall guitar skill.
Students that dedicate the time and effort each week to practicing see results rapidly. �However, if you have a busy life and are just wanting to learn guitar for personal enjoyment, I design the lessons to develop you at your desired pace.�
I teach guitar to children as young as five years old and adults of any age.�When teaching younger children, it is significantly beneficial for parents to attend each lesson - I have parent seating available. Having the parent(s) attend the lesson aids in guiding the younger student while practicing during the week at home. �The overall musical development and progress of the younger students improves drastically with the involvement of the parent(s). �All lesson materials, ranging from individual sheet music to complete method books, are provided by me; except for the guitar.
Musical talent is a wonderful gift, but correct technique is not easily acquired without proper instruction. �Your skill level eventually plateaus and your ability to learn and perform more difficult guitar music is inhibited, unless you have a solid foundation based on musical knowledge and proper guitar technique. �I can help you begin building a solid foundation of musical and technical guitar skills. �I will guide you through the initial development of guitar skills; correcting flaws in technique is my specialty. �

Are you a 501c3: yes
Additional Info/situation: Joy Bruce is receiving dog and could pick up in Temecula/Murrieta, Palm Springs, Las Vegas, San Diego, Orange County John Wayne, LAX
Thank you for your kindness in volunteering to help rescue animals go to their forever homes! If you would help me or know someone who could, that would bring JOY to my heart for Christmas and save a dogs life.
I lost my dog of 12 years due to an illness a few months ago and decided to wait awhile and find that special dog to be my buddy. When Vicky at Western Animal Resources (W.A.R.) in Elk City OK told me about Roscoe, I knew he was the one. He is about 1 yr old and 40lbs of HAPPY to be ADOPTED!
Roscoe was rescued from a high kill shelter when the staff there would not put him to sleep because of his delightful disposition. He has recently served the youth in a prison dog program and now it's his time to find his forever home...and that's me.
Roscoe was picked up stray in Elk City, OK. A lady called animal control that a tiger dog was sleeping on her front porch and she was afraid. When ACO arrived at the residence they opened the pickup door and whistled , Roscoe came right up to the guy wagging his tail and just loaded up on the front seat. No owner ever came to claim him.
The guys at the pound fell in love. They managed to hide Roscoe every week from the kill list but after 30 days his luck ran out. Roscoe was to be put down the next morning.
That evening Vicky was at the DOC W.A.R. Center training and introducing one of the dogs there to their new forever family. Two of the inmates in the dog training program work days at the pound and the guys started begging Vicky to come pickup Roscoe in the morning. Roscoe made it into the DOC Overs for Rovers program just in the nick of time.
This program is not perfect by any means but it is a chance at life. The dogs are kept in 10x10 kennels with igloo dog house during the day and crated in the maintenance bldg at night. When the inmates get in from their day jobs they work with the dogs for about two hours. ROSCOE HAS BEEN THERE ALMOST 4 MONTHS WITH NO INTEREST until now.
W.A.R. Center Training is a 501(C)3 and would love to see him get to his new forever home for the New Year, making room to save another dog with the Overs for Rovers program.
He will be coming to live on a small horse ranch north of San Diego, in Temecula. He has a bed beside mine, his own back seat in my truck and will come with me on all my horseback trail rides and camping trips. We are anxiously awaiting transportation to start a new life for both of us.
Please let me know if you will help us.
Thank you and God bless you for the services you do!
Joy Bruce @ firstname.lastname@example.com

LAKEWOOD, Wash. -- A suspected DUI driver's erratic driving had others fearing for their safety along a nearly 10-mile stretch of Interstate 5 Wednesday.
Just before noon, police received 911 calls from 14 different drivers.
Callers reported that the 32-year-old driver from Auburn was weaving in and out of lanes, hitting center barriers and traveling at inconsistent speeds in his Dodge Durango SUV.
Call recordings released to KING 5 by the Washington State Patrol showed tense nerves for drivers near the man.
"He's been over on the shoulder, back into the lane and then crossed over into the left hand lane he's just all over the place," said one driver.
Callers first noticed the man's troubling behavior near I-5 South at Gravelly Lake.
"Out of the lanes, in the lanes, slowing down, speeding up. It's like a stray bullet, it's going to hit something eventually," said Trooper Guy Gill, Washington State Patrol Spokesman.
According to police, the man exited I-5 at the Nisqually exit then got back onto the freeway to go northbound.
He eventually crashed his SUV near the Bridgeport Way exit.
"My husband and I commented not even a minute before it happened that we're going to see this guy on his lid," said a concerned caller.
Witnesses told police the man then darted through oncoming traffic.
"This guy is trying to leave the scene! He's going across the lanes, hey get back here!" exclaimed a caller while on the phone with a 911 dispatcher.
According to witnesses, the suspected drunk driver hopped a fence and ran into Springbrook Lane Apartment building in Lakewood.
"I came out and saw him running. He was stumbling, he was pretty drunk," said Luis Pulido, who works at the complex.
Police say no one was seriously hurt thanks to quick action by other drivers.
"It was awesome, they did exactly what we asked them to do," said Trooper Gill.
The 32-year-old was arrest on suspicion of DUI, hit and run and driving with a suspended license. He's expected in Pierce County District Court Friday or Monday.
Police in Pierce and Thurston County totaled 16 DUI arrests on New Year's Eve.

World Teachers' Day, celebrated on Oct. 5, is a great opportunity to show teachers at local schools how great you think they are. But, the day also takes on a deeper meaning, standing for the protection of teachers' rights.
Since its inception in 1994, World Teachers' Day has had a theme every year. The theme for 2012 is "Take a stand for teachers."
This day was founded by UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. More than 100 countries currently observe World Teachers' Day, with many corporate supporters such as Google recognizing the global impact and conditions of teachers.
The goal of the day is to educate the public about the conditions of being a teacher around the world, focusing specifically on the protection of teachers' rights, and the proper training and development of teachers.
The episode, Education, was produced and directed by Steve Rogers, whose mother and father both taught locally.
In an interview with Patch, Rogers said he took on this topic, because he, "really wanted to celebrate people, who are good teachers and doing great things in an an out-of-the-box way."
Everyone has an educator who has changed his or her life with their "out-of-the-box" thinking, their kindness, humor or educational impact.
On World Teachers' Day, we at Patch encourage you to remember these teachers by looking at issues and obstacles they may face.
How will you celebrate World Teachers' Day? Give your favorite teachers a shout out in the comments section below. Or if you are a teacher, please comment below on World Teachers' Day and what it means to you.

July 29, 2014
Posted Wednesday, April 17, 2013 --- 11:03 a.m.
Press Release from the Dane Co. Sheriff's Office:
Madison, WI. April 17, 2013 – The Dane County Sheriff's Office wants to inform motorists of possible traffic delays on Highway 12/18 (Beltline) on Friday, April 19th.
The annual Midwest Horse Fair begins Friday morning at the Alliant Energy Center. Hundreds of spectators and exhibitors will be arriving during the height of the morning commute, and authorities expect both east and westbound lanes of the Beltline to be congested.
For motorists traveling to the event, the Sheriff's Office is asking that they exit at Rimrock Road and use the Rusk Avenue entrance first. However, the Rimrock Road and Olin Avenue entrances will also be open if the Rusk Avenue entrance is backed up.
In an effort to alleviate some of the traffic issues, both Dane County Sheriff's Office Beltline Service trucks will be operating from 7:00 am until 7:00 pm on Friday. In addition, Dane County Sheriff's Deputies will be directing traffic near the entrances of the Alliant Energy Center, and signs from the WI Department of Transportation will be placed along the Beltline to help direct motorists.
The Sheriff's Office would ask any motorists that can avoid Highway 12/18 near the Park Street, Rimrock Road, and John Nolan exits on Friday morning and late afternoon to do so. The Midwest Horse Fair continues through the weekend. As always, please remember to travel at an appropriate speed and buckle up.
