Jersey drivers ignore cell phone ban
N.J. police write an average of 9,770 cell phone tickets a month. Meanwhile, a poll found an increase in texting while driving.
This post comes from partner site ConsumerAffairs.com.
New Jersey has a law prohibiting drivers from texting or talking on their cell phones while behind the wheel, but it's clear many have not gotten the message.
The evidence is in the number of tickets state police officers have written over the last two years. In the past 23 months, 224,725 citations -- an average of 9,770 a month -- have been issued to motorists for violating the state's cell phone law.
"Any cell phone conversation while driving, whether handheld or hands-free, is distracting and dangerous, and can result in crashes, injuries, and in some cases the loss of life," said Pam Fischer, director of New Jersey's Division of Highway Traffic Safety. "For the safety of all roadway users, we must hang up and just drive."
- Quiz: Test your driving skills
New Jersey's primary cell phone law went into effect on March 1, 2008. Motorists violating the law face a $100 fine plus court costs and fees.
Since 2008 there have been 3,610 crashes involving a motorist using a handheld cell phone in New Jersey, resulting in 1,548 injuries and 13 deaths. During the same time period, 3,129 crashes involving the use of a hands-free device resulted in 1,495 injuries and six fatalities.
"These numbers are staggering, but perhaps even more disturbing is the number of crashes involving cell phone use and texting that go unreported," Fischer said. "We know that many drivers involved in a crash don't admit to these behaviors, which means that the actual number of cell phone-related crashes in New Jersey is much greater."
Driving while texting increases
Meanwhile, a Fairleigh Dickinson University PublicMind Poll conducted last year found that the number of New Jersey drivers who said they sent text messages while driving increased after the law took effect.
It said 57% of drivers under the age of 30 said they have texted while driving, up six percentage points from 2008, while more than one in four drivers age 30 to 44 said they have sent a text message, up eight points from the previous year. Also, 12% of motorists between 45 and 60 said they have sent text messages while driving.
At least 1.4 million crashes are caused each year nationwide by drivers talking on their cell phones, while a minimum of 200,000 crashes are caused by drivers texting behind the wheel, according to the National Safety Council.

Is Groupon Worth Having in Your Portfolio?
Lior is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
The meteoric rise of Groupon (NASDAQ: GRPN) in 2013 has recently slowed down. Nonetheless, shares of the company have outperformed leading online companies such as Amazon.com (NASDAQ: AMZN) and eBay (NASDAQ: EBAY). Will Groupon continue to outperform other online companies? Is this company a long-term investment worth having in your portfolio? Let's try to tackle these questions.
First let's turn to the retail market and specifically online retail.
Non-store retail is rising
According to the recent Census report (opens pdf), retail sales slightly increased by 0.6% during June and by 3.7% during the first half of 2013 compared to 2012. The non-store retail sales sharply rose in June by 13.8% compared to June 2012 and by 11.2% in the first six months of the year. Online shopping sales (opens pdf) account for approximately 53% out of the non-store retail sales and 5.5% of total retail sales.
During the first quarter of 2013, online-shopping sales grew by 15.3%. This growth rate in online retail, which is higher than the total retail and non-store retail growth rates, is likely to keep augmenting its share in the retail market. Moreover, the online-retail-stores sales growth rate could serve as a good benchmark for this industry to compare the growth rate of other companies, such as Groupon and Amazon.
Growth in revenue
During the first quarter of 2013, Amazon's net revenue grew by almost 22% compared to the same quarter in 2012. This growth rate is higher than the average growth rate in online-retail sales in 2013 so far. Looking forward, Amazon's revenue is expected to rise by 13% to 26% in the second quarter, which is still inline with the growth rate of online-retail-stores sales. This means Amazon's sales are likely to keep growing at the same or higher pace as the industry's average.
In the first six months of 2013, eBay's net sales grew by a similar pace as online-retail sales: eBay's net sales increased by 14.2% in the first half of 2013 compared to 2012. Looking forward, the company projects its revenue will be between $16 billion and $16.5 billion in 2013, which represents a 14.3% to 17.8% growth in sales. At the current pace, it coincides with online-retail-stores sales growth.
On the other hand, Groupon's net revenue increased by only 7.5% in the first quarter of 2013. The reason for the low growth rate in revenue is due to the 18% decline in international revenue. On the other hand, North American net sales grew by 23%, which is higher than the online-retail market.
So Groupon's revenue is growing at a slower pace compared to leading online companies such as Amazon and eBay. Finally, Groupon's revenue is expected (according to the company's outlook) to rise by no more than 10% during the year, which could be less than the growth rate of total online-retail sales and other leading online companies. This isn't a good selling point for owning Groupon.
Let's turn to examine Groupon's profitability.
Groupon's profit margin diminished in the first quarter of 2013: the operating profit margin fell from 7.1% in the first quarter of 2012 to 3.5% in the more recent period. Despite the recent decline in profitability, Groupon's profit margin remains higher than Amazon's profitability, which reached 1.1% in the first quarter of 2013. eBay is still leading the way in this aspect as its profit margin reached 19.3% in the second quarter of 2013, which is only slightly lower than the profit margin recorded in the second quarter a year earlier. In the near future, both eBay and Amazon could see a slow decline in their profitability due to currency risks, an ongoing slowdown in Europe, and stronger competition.
Based on the above, Groupon's profitability is in the middle of the pack of other leading online companies. Looking forward, the company's outlook for the second quarter of 2013 projects its profit margin will be between 3.5% and 6.4%, which is much lower than the profitability in the second quarter of 2012. Moreover, in 2013, the company's operating profit may reach $100 million, which is less than last year's profit. This means Groupon's profitability isn't likely to improve in the near future.
Another factor that may influence investors is Groupon's valuation compared to the industry and compared to other leading Internet-based companies. To that end, let's analyze these companies' enterprise value and their EV-to-EBIT ratios.
The table below presents the summary of all three companies' EV-to-EBIT ratios.
This calculation considers these companies' different financial structures. The yearly EBIT is based on the past four quarters (ending in the first quarter of 2013). As seen, Groupon's EV-to-EBIT ratio is higher than the industry average. Amazon's ratio is much higher than both Groupon's and the industry average. eBay's ratio is close to the industry average. This means that Groupon's current value is high for its industry, which makes this company a less attractive investment from a valuation standpoint.
Based on the above, I remain doubtful as to the future course of Groupon. The company's growth rate in revenue is high in the U.S but continues to decline in the international segment; Groupon's profit margin isn't high and its valuation seems high for the industry, which makes this company less of a bargain at this stage.

District snags huge outdoor rec grant
The state of Washington, through the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction, has awarded a 21st Century Grant to Blaine school district that could be worth as much as $620,000 over five years. Superintendent Dr. Mary Lynne Derrington announced the grant at last week's school board meeting.
The grant is for $124,000 per year renewable up to five years. It funds a program beginning this school year that will use outdoor experience to improve student academic performance. The process will also offer opportunities for strengthening parenting skills in the students' families, according to grant writer and program administrator Leaf Schumann. "We want to capture the kids' attention with real-world activities," Schumann said, "and then help them apply what they learn to real life academic situations, such as using math to figure out a compass course."
The grant partners the school district with local agencies who will provide students with such outdoor experiences as hikes, wall climbs, fossil hunts and orienteering competitions coupled with pre- and post-event classes at the middle school. The primary agencies are the Blaine Boys and Girls Club, the Bellingham YMCA and Whatcom County Parks and Recreation.
It also involves the Whatcom Literacy Council, the Blaine Community Theater and the Spinal Industry Network, an agency run by Blaine resident Pat Madsen, in a number of spin-off programs designed to supplement the grant's primary focus.
Schumann, along with Blaine middle school principal Randy Elsbree, applied for the same grant last year, "and we came close but were not selected," Schumann said. This time around Schumann said the proposal is quite a bit stronger, "and because of that we tied for first with two other districts" in the evaluation process. Only 10 of the 49 districts who applied to the state this year were awarded grants.
While the application targets a specific student population, Schumann emphasized that the program is open to all middle school students. "We obviously want to serve the students most in need of the service this offers, but there's room for everyone," Schumann said.
"What sold the proposal was that our numbers are growing" in the total of students who are low-income and who are English Language Learners (ELL), Schumann said, pointing out that 11 percent of students nationally fall below the poverty line "but in Blaine it's 17 percent. We do have a disproportionate number of families in need."
grant is aimed specifically at providing primarily outdoor
experiences to such students who otherwise
might not be able to afford them, "although
I want to repeat that the program is open for
everyone," Schumann
said, "because diversity is one thing
counting on to make this a real benefit to
those who participate."
In addition to the outdoor trips, all of which will have certificated school teachers teaching the pre- and post-trip classes, Schumann described two other program elements, "theater activities with the Blaine Community Theater and a parent institute, a place to not just teach skills but where parents can feel welcomed and supported by the schools." Schumann said he wants parents to feel as comfortable "here as they would in their own home" in working with the school and their children toward improved academic performance.
Schumann credited Elsbree, "along with a bunch of other middle school teachers and staff," as having come up with the idea to use outdoor education as a vehicle to improve academic performance. "It's his brain child," said Schumann, who this year moved from the district's Family Service Center to Blaine primary school as the school counselor.
Elsbree, on the other hand, said that "Leaf did the bulk of the work on this thing, and deserves a lot of credit for making it happen."

When baby Sabrina Aisenberg disappeared from her family's Valrico home in November of 1997, suspicion fell on her parents, Steve and Marlene. Sabrina has never been found, but her parents were cleared in the case. That was thanks, at least in part, to their attorney, Barry Cohen.
For decades, Cohen has been controversial for his high-profile tactics defending clients like the Aisenbergs. He's held elaborate press conferences railing at powerful government and corporate officials. Some reporters have called it "Barry holding court." Why?
Cohen says when he meets people for the first time, they often feel they already know him.
"People say to me all the time 'You're a lot different than what I thought you were like."
"What did they think you were like?" I inquired.
"Well, they thought I was an arrogant ass****. They see the side of me that's kind of a jerk on television. I'm jumping on somebody's ass."
He doesn't deny that sometimes it's for the benefit of the cameras.
"People say I'm a media hound, a narcissist. Both may be true," Cohen offered. "But, the fact is that I use the media in certain cases to tell the public the truth or tell the public the other side of the story."
It's nothing new. Decades ago, he was featured in a story on '60 Minutes' when he took on Tampa's powerful U.S. attorney, Robert "Mad Dog" Merkle. The local official Merkle was targeting for corruption, Cohen's client, was cleared.
On the screen was a young Cohen: "I told the people of this community that Merkle's McCarthy mentality is a threat to innocent people," he told Morley Safer.
Instead of running from fights, Cohen seems to run toward fights. That started at an early age when he developed a distrust of authority.
When Cohen was a young boy, his father worked as a cook at an exclusive country club. His father took Barry to work with him one night.
"So I went out where the rich people sat," remembered Cohen. "This guy grabbed me by the shirt and took me back to the kitchen where my dad was working."
Cohen says the man yelled, bullied, and humiliated his father in front of him. Ever since, he's questioned and challenged authority figures, whether they are corporate executives, "or governments bullying a citizen because they have the resources to do so," he said with a glare.
Although his hair has grayed, his passion for the law has remained red hot. He tells me has some big, new cases pending. He has three grown children and a 12-year-old named Barry.
His eyes go to a photograph of the younger one.
"He's very creative, very argumentative, and very tenacious," said Cohen.
"Like anyone else you know?" I ask.
"That's what my wife says," smiled one of the most argumentative, tenacious, and controversial lawyers who ever walked into a Tampa courtroom and dared opponents to fight.

OK - this will be somewhat abbreviated. And I missed a few minutes when having my blood pressure taken.
Sure Victor finds Vikki to be a nuisance - but after Adam and Abby, does he really wanna alienate a 3rd child? And over Billy? Meet Vikki half way, Nikki suggests (to no avail). Meanwhile, Billy's on bended knee. YES Vikki will marry him - and this time it's for keeps.
At Chloe's place , Malloy puts his pants back on - this mistake won't happen again. That good huh? Chloe mopes.
Across the hall, Chance is reaming out Heather. Protecting him? Keeping him safe? If she gave a damn, she wouldn't have sold him out to 'that jerk' *slam*
Back at the ranch, Victor continues to grumble about the SOB who's humiliated Vikki and the family - while Nikki pulls out the childhood photos. Vikki may be making a mistake - but don't turn your back on her. Meanwhile, Vikki admires the ring on her finger. Should they elope? Wed at the arcade? Go traditional? So, you pregnant? Vikki forgot to check - let's go!
At CL's, Paul assures Nina that the aged photo should be arriving soon. But - it's not an exact science - and they may never find Aiden.
Chloe continues to pout - was it that terrible? Will Malloy NEVER get involved? He's leaving when the investigation's over? What about Nina and Chance? Saved by Kevin's arrival, Malloy bolts (leaving Chloe to weep all over Kevin - what's wrong with me?)
Visiting Heather, Paul (the clever PI) just knows she's been crying. Boo hoo - Heather lost her job, now Chance. She's tempted to expose Malloy.
Over beers, Chloe whines about getting dumped yet again. Yeah, well Kevin finds Chloe amazing, funny and beautiful - dont't waste time on Malloy ya hear?
At CL's, Nina snarls at Malloy (who's days are numbered - thanks to Chance) - who then arrives to confront Malloy.
While Vikki and Billy are excited to see if they're pregnant, Nikki continues to work on Victor (with more photos) - Vikki's happy with Billy (who Victor thinks a player - just like Jack) - push too hard and Victor may never get her back. Back to the pee stick - Vikki's thrilled; Billy's excited - but it was left out too long (so could be a false positive).
Chloe's head in his lap, Kevin doesn't care that Malloy's lonely. In fact, he doesn't care about Malloy OR Chance (as long as Chloe's OK). Awww - Chloe hugs her 'really great pal' (while Kevin looks like he wants more)
Paul doesn't like the idea of Heather confiding in Owen at ALL - leave it to the Feds. Heather wants to keep Chance safe - and yeah - she IS in love with Nina's son).
Back at CL's, Chance gloats. You walked right into my trap - guns drawn. Malloy and Meeks are both dirty as hell. Huh? Malloy just attended a call out - with back up. Leave town, he orders. Nothing Malloy can say will make Chance leave town. Oh yeah? I just slept with your ex!
When Nina breaks up the boys, Malloy leaves with one last sneer - enjoy your evening. And after Chance scurries off, Meeks informs Malloy that Chance has got to go (as per the guy at the top). Yeah? Well, maybe it's time Malloy met the guy at the top.
And while Heather whines to Paul (about the sacrifices she's made to keep Malloy's secret), Chance goes to confront Chloe. After Kevin's sent off to fetch Delia, Chloe's scolded for sleeping with a thug - and WHAT 'things' does Chloe know about Malloy (that Chance doesn't).
Waiting for the results of another pregnancy test, Billy and Vikki both hope it's positive. If they aren't pregnant with a little hellion, they'll just keep trying *kiss*
As Victor continues to mope over childhood photos of Vikki, he worries that Billy will ruin her life. Even more reason to stay close, Nikki responds. Our baby adores her father - please don't let her go.
Delia in his arms, Kevin picks up some treats to cheer Mommy up (while Chance finally gets Chloe to spill the beans on Malloy - he's your brother). On the patio, Paul slides the laptop in front of an anxious Nina. Here's the email you've been waiting for. Both look stunned by the image in front of them.
Heather calls to leave Owen a message - meet me at your office. There's something you need to know. Meanwhile, Malloy's with Meeks - and stunned to find 'the top guy' is Owen. That's good - means the DA's been convincing as a good guy. Malloy recovers (to say that killing Chance is too messy - too sloppy). Handing Malloy a gun with no serial, Owen thinks it time he prove what side he's on - and has til tomorrow night to do so. No problem, Malloy grabs the gun - guy's nothing to me.
As a stammering Billy welcomes the Newman's into their new home, Vikki bounces down the stairs. I'm pregnantt, she beams (much to Nikki and Victor's shock).
Next: By tomorrow night Malloy will prove what side he's on - Chance will be gone.... Vikki and Nikki look stunned - as Vikki can't wait to become Mrs Billy Abbott ... Jack stuns Ashley - Your daughter is on to something. Victor may have mismanaged her trust.

Image Gallery: Creating too many folders...
14 December 2010 at 12:46am
I am seeing some weird stuff with Image Gallery. I have installed all the latest versions as per UncleCheese, and every time i add a new Image Gallery page, it creates a folder caller "new ImageGallery page" and then when i go to modify my page and change it to say....just "Gallery" it will create THREE (yes 3) new folders called "Gallery".
So, when i go to actually add images, and save/pulblish the page it errors out because it can't find the correct stuff. it's doing this on both my dev site (that still just uses the black_candy theme, and my clients site. I can then go into the Files & Images and select "Look for new files" and it will clean it up for me. But...I don't want my client to see that or have to do that every time they make a change to the gallery.
No idea what's causing this!!!

I had similar problems here. When I renamed the Image Gallery page from the default "Image Gallery" to "Gallery", every time I saved the gallery page it created two additional folders called "Gallery" in the "Files & Images" section. I never got an error message as Terry describes, but I may have manually renamed the folder with album sub folders to "Gallery". I don't remember. Still I got these two additional "Gallery" folders on every save.
I could find a fix that works for my site: I checked the database table ImageGalleryPage (which contains the GalleryPage config settings) and in my case the field RootFolderID had the value '18'. I checked this against the File table which RootFolderID refers to, but there was no entry with ID = '18'. Instead I noticed that the Gallery folder in my case had ID '17'. So all I did was to change ImageGalleryPage.RootFolderID to 17. Now I can save and no new folders are created. Everything works fine. I can add/delete images and albums.
In my case that's sufficient because I only intend to have this one Gallery page anyway. If you want to fix this in your project just make sure that the ID numbers are most likely different, so just double-check.
I don't have a bugfix for the code, but it seems that the unnecessary folders are created in ImageGalleryPage.php, in the ImageGalleryPage class, function checkFolder.
function checkFolder() {
if( ! $this->RootFolderID ) {
$galleries = Folder::findOrMake('image-gallery');
$galleries->Title = 'Image Gallery';
$folder = Folder::findOrMake('image-gallery/' . $this->URLSegment);
$folder->Title = $this->Title;
$this->RootFolderID = $folder->ID;
FormResponse::add( "\$( 'Form_EditForm' ).getPageFromServer( $this->ID );" );
else {
In my case it definitely didn't find the RootFolderID in the highlighted line, so it created a new one. So there seems a little bug that doesn't update or set the RootFolderID correctly somewhere else in the code.
Just to add this to the issue as well. When I create a new album now it creates the folder structure /image-gallery/Gallery/my-album-name/
So my assets folder structure is
- Gallery
-- album1
-- album2
- image-gallery
--- album3
(I created album1 and album2 before I renamed the gallery page from "Image Gallery" to "Gallery".)
This is not a big issue and I could probably just recreate album 1 and album 2 and delete the old ones if I feel the assets structure is so important, but just to make people aware. The whole thing is probably just a small issue to fix, but I couldn't find a solution yet.

Cheers Anatol.
Yes it looks like my issue is exactly what you describe, I have changed my RootFolderID to match and it has solved the bug of Gallery folder appearing in the File and Images tab multiple times.
Maybe something that should be added into the issues on Uncle Cheese's github repository for imagegallery module?

I have done some work on fixing the multiple folders being created. Im not sure what a "pull request" is but I can past the functions I updated.
In the onAfterWrite() function the parrent::onAfterWrite() was being called after if($this->ID) $this->checkFolder(); There may be a good reason for this and I would like to know what it is. But I put the Parent call first as it makes most sense to me.
The other function I made changes to is the checkFolder() function where I really just put in a lot more checks for existing files and tried to make it a lot more robust. I am probably duplicating things that are done by Folder::findormake() but I don't trust that function any more.
function onAfterWrite()
if( $this->ID ) $this->checkFolder();
* checkFolder
* Makes sure that the GalleryPage has it's own folder and that there is a Root folder for all the galleries.
* @return void
function checkFolder() {
// Sometimes I have found that the Page has a Folder ID for a folder that does not actually exist so I
// check here to make sure that if the ID exists so also does the entry in the Files table and that it also exists
// in the filesystem.
if ($this->RootFolderID && is_numeric($this->RootFolderID ))
$supposedFolder = DataObject::get_by_id("Folder", $this->RootFolderID ); // If the ID exists, find if there is a folder in the database of that ID
if ($supposedFolder && file_exists($_SERVER{'DOCUMENT_ROOT'} . "/" . $supposedFolder->Filename)) // Make sure the Folder exists in the file system.
$supposedFolder->Title = $this->Title;
$supposedFolder->setName($this->URLSegment); // If all is good so far make sure the Folder has the right name.
// If the ID exists and the database knows about the Folder but for some reason it was deleted from the filesystem,
// make a new folder and set the new ID on the GalleryPage.
$folder = Folder::findOrMake('Galleries/' . $this->URLSegment);
$folder->Title = $this->Title;
$folder->setName($this->URLSegment); //URLSegment is safe to set Name since it won't have spaces etc. Name is used for Filename as well.
$this->RootFolderID = $folder->ID;
else if( !$this->RootFolderID ) // If there is no folder anywhere then go ahead and make the dang thing.
$galleries = Folder::findOrMake('Galleries');
$galleries->Title = 'Image Gallery';
$folder = Folder::findOrMake('Galleries/' . $this->URLSegment);
$folder->Title = $this->Title;
$this->RootFolderID = $folder->ID;
if ($this->Albums()->Count() == 0) { //Don't just make a default album willy nilly. Check to make sure there isn't an album already.
FormResponse::add( "\$( 'Form_EditForm' ).getPageFromServer( $this->ID );" ); // I wish I knew what this was for.

Mia Farrow is a bitter woman living in the past, brainwashing her children, and propagating outrageous lies just to hurt her wildly successful and acclaimed ex ... so claims Woody Allen's lawyer.
Attorney Elkan Abramowitz did Allen's bidding on the "Today" show Tuesday ... claiming Mia went on the warpath because she couldn't handle the fact that his client got a Golden Globe Lifetime Achievement Award.
As you know ... Woody's adopted daughter Dylan claims he molested her when she was 7 and she got real specific over the weekend ... claiming, among other things, he shoved his face in her naked crotch.
To believe Abramowitz you also have to believe that Mia has brainwashed both Dylan and Woody's biological son, Ronan Farrow.
This man is disgusting.
Was he there???
This could very well be the truth. None of us know for sure. Either way, this girl was deeply victimized by either her mother or her father. It is a very sad situation.
Ronan isn't Woody's kid. They attached Mia back in the day when this first came out but clearly something happened and it wasn't good AND it wasn't Mia's fault or Dylan's fault.
question america: why was jerry sandusky vilified (rightfully so), but woody allen is not only praised, but "respected"??? if woody diddled little boys, would that have made a difference?
mia farrow is not a fame whore... his excuse is so focking paper thin, do people really still believe this man is innocent? seriously???
How many times to people have to say it. He MARRIED his adopted daughter! Watched her grow up living in his home! This whole brainwashing is bullsh!t. Shame on you!
I don't know Woody Allen but I'd bet my life savings he's a sicko. Let's look at the evidence: he married a child he raised. He publicly began his relationship with Soon-Yi when she was 19. There is a 37 year age difference. That's a neon flashing sign something is wrong with this guy. As a victim of sexual abuse from an in law, that was wealthy and influential, it took about a decade for my victimizer's true colors to be completely exposed and situations would trigger my PTSD and I would plead for family members, specifically his wife, to believe me. I can completely relate to Dylan's pattern. Our race has enough blatant issues without honoring a child molester. Cmon Hollywood, you know the truth and you're foul for turning the other way.
I did NOT watch the clip. The headline pissed me off! Jerk of an attorney to call someone B_itch (which darling we women now feel is your way of saying we stand up for ourselves) is another blow for victims. Can you say Nicole Simpson Brown (remember she put a note in a safe deposit box in case she died). Put him in a ring match.
Where there is smoke there is fire.
Did y'all know Woody ADOPTED a couple more young asian victims errrr children?
Child Services, anyone?
he has a point until u remember he married his adopted daughter, sicko
Facts you should know:
#1: Soon-Yi was Woody's daughter. False.
#2: Soon-Yi was Woody's step-daughter. False.
#3: Soon-Yi was Woody and Mia's adopted daughter. False. Soon-Yi was the adopted daughter of Mia Farrow and André Previn. Her full name was Soon-Yi Farrow Previn.
#4: Woody and Mia were married. False.
#5: Woody and Mia lived together. False. Woody lived in his apartment on Fifth Ave. Mia and her kids lived on Central Park West. In fact, Woody never once stayed over night at Mia's apartment in 12 years.
#6: Woody and Mia had a common-law marriage. False. New York State does not recognize common law marriage. Even in states that do, a couple has to cohabitate for a certain number of years.
#7: Soon-Yi viewed Woody as a father figure. False. Soon-Yi saw Woody as her mother's boyfriend. Her father figure was her adoptive father, André Previn.
#8: Soon-Yi was underage when she and Woody started having relations. False. She was either 19 or 21.
I wonder if George Zimmerman is ready to go a few rounds with Woody ?
TMZ says lawyer calls Mia Farrow a "bitter bitch". Did anyone hear that? TMZ why do you trash women on this site all the time? Your writers are obviously non--talent dudes.
I believe her. Woody's a perverted creep like Roman Polanski. What I don't understand is why they are saying the statute of limitations has run out when so many Catholic priests were prosecuted many years after their molestations.
I thought Mia said she wasn't sure who Ronan's dad was. He looks a lot like frank Sinatra whom she dated. I thought she said it was possible he was his?

Middle East tensions could boost gas prices
Crude oil prices have been rising in recent weeks as tensions over Syria have risen. So far, gasoline prices at the pump are little changed. 'So far' is the operative phrase.
The cause is what's going on in Syria. A long-running and increasingly brutal civil war is threatening to suck in everyone: Iran, Turkey, the United States Russia.
Israel's air attack on Syrian military targets near Damascus prompted the Syrian government on Monday to declare that the strike "opened the door to all possibilities."
Oil prices moved higher in response. Light sweet crude rose 55 cents to $96.16 a barrel in New York. Brent moved up $1.05 to $105.24.
The effect on U.S. gas prices has been muted -- so far. AAA's Daily Fuel Gauge Report put the national average price of gasoline at $3.521 a gallon on Monday, up slightly from Sunday but down slightly from Friday.
The more important trend is that a steady decline in retail gasoline prices since a peak of $3.786 on Feb. 27 stopped on April 28 and April 29 at $3.50 a gallon. The decline set in during February after evidence mounted that global demand for oil and gasoline might fall back as economies in Europe slumped and China's economic growth slowed.
What happens next will be a function of news flow. If the Syrian situation deteriorates, fears will rise that crude oil supplies from the Persian Gulf could be disrupted. The pressure point is the Strait of Hormuz, which oil tankers must pass through to get to markets elsewhere.
About a quarter of the world's oil comes from the states that ring the gulf. Supply disruptions, as most people know, would boost prices and hurt many economies.
The worries about the Middle East affected not just oil prices. Energy was the second-stronger sector of the stock market on Monday. The Select Energy SPDR (XLE) exchange-traded fund was up 54 cents to $80.01 on Monday and is up 2.2% this month. Pioneer Natural Resources (PXD) gained $3.90 to $133.54. Marathon Petroleum (MPC) added $2.24 to $80.34.
It's likely that Friday's jobs report, which was a better than expected, also provided a boost to energy stocks.

That's the big problem, Steve. People or the driving public "has accepted" the $4 dollar level for gas.
More accepted on the West or East Coast then in the Midwest..
Worst yet, if we cut back on driving doesn't seem to matter?
It appears to me that people are doing less "carpooling."
I see a skinny little woman or one person driving SUVs all the time...ALONE.
Most don't seem to be trying to conserve...They don't care anymore.
And it's killing Seniors in Northern States, because they"have" to heat during winter. Or die.
Many are using 20% of their SS just for that purpose...Driving is another issue.
It's "very obvious" that with Oil companies and their Retail operations making record profits, that they are no longer making just " a few pennies profit" on a gallon...
I wanna slug some of the azzholes when they tell me that..
Plus they have a grocery business and deli business within the fueling Stations..Big profits margins !!
Many people are using credit, debit or gas cards for purchase; So they don't even feel the pain or really realize the cost until the bill comes due...
Another ploy by the retailer, using gas cards for a "nickel discount" on purchase; When the average consumer doesn't or can't take advanyage when paying the bills later, because they don't pay it off quick enough, like most Seniors do.....money,money,money.
Taxes on fuels particularily gas are another "sore spot" with me, it's one of the "hidden taxes" that few seem to grasp....States and the Feds raise them using different excuses, and people sometimes are not hardly aware of how much it's costing them...
It's one of the ploys that Republicans slyly use, but then spout "no new taxes", I call bullshidt.
I've seen it done for decades...
The same has happened in the "sin tax arena" with cigarettes,tobacco, booze and beer...
All under handed, and then tout "no new taxes"..

This Friday (Feb. 1), the American Heart Association is asking you to wear red to help raise awareness about the number one killer of women in the United States.
Heart disease claims the lives of a half-million American women each year. National Wear Red Day challenges women to know their risk for heart disease and realize the symptoms and warning signs for women aren't the same as men.
While most of us associate heart attacks with extreme chest pain, the American Heart Association says women are more likely to experience shortness of breath, nausea, back or jaw pain, dizziness, pain in the lower chest or upper abdomen, and extreme fatigue.
But, the good news is heart disease can be prevented by practicing healthy lifestyle habits. So please, help bring attention to this important health issue and join millions of women and men this Friday who come together to wear red and commit to fighting this deadly disease.

Want to save money? Move downtown
If you want to save money these days, you have to move into the city. Crazy, but true.
This post comes from Brett Arends at partner site SmartMoney.
My wife and I thought about moving out of the city to cut our expenses. Then we ran the numbers and realized it made no sense.
If you want to save money these days, you have to move into the city. Crazy, but true.
No wonder McKinsey & Co., the strategy consultant, recently produced a report predicting a new golden age for the American city. When I was growing up, the story of the American city was a sad one. The middle class had fled to the suburbs. Downtown was dying. But based on my math, people are going to be moving back.
Three reasons: Interest rates. Gas prices. And the Internet. Let me explain.
Sure, real estate outside the city looks cheaper. But then we'd have to buy two cars.
And while the cost of a car is going up, the cost of real estate has come down, thanks to the collapse in interest rates.
I did the math. (Post continues below.)
Thirty-year Treasury bond yields have now plummeted to 2.5%. The 10-year is down to 1.44%. You can thank the Federal Reserve, as well as the economic slump.
This is great news for a homeowner. We are in the process of refinancing a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage at 3.6%. The interest, of course, is deductible at the federal level. So after taxes, the rate, on a net basis, is less than 3%.
According to the American Automobile Association, the average car costs about $9,000 a year. That includes about $3,500 in depreciation, as well as $5,500 in fuel, insurance, maintenance and so on. It seems a little high to me. But it's hard to see how you could run a car for less than about $4,000 a year, including depreciation. Two cars: $8,000. This is lowballing it. And I think over the long term fuel costs are probably heading higher.
It produces some fascinating numbers. With current mortgage rates, $8,000 a year would pay the net interest on a $275,000 mortgage. In other words, in very crude numbers, if we moved out of the city we'd have to find a home for $275,000 less than our current place in order to break even.
The difference may not be quite that big. Let's say we spend about $2,000 a year on rental cars or Zipcars. That still leaves a gap of about $200,000. We'd need to save more than that in order to make the move work.
I mentioned the Internet. It's an ancillary factor. I grew up in the countryside. It's a very convenient life when you can drive everywhere. But the rise of online shopping has eliminated that disadvantage of urban living as well.
Naturally there are some complicating factors. The numbers only work if you itemize your taxes anyway: Those of us who live in high-income, high-cost states generally do. And there are other reasons to live in a city or the countryside. Many people will make their decisions based on quality of life.
But it's intriguing to realize that the sticker on the price of city real estate is misleading. It is about as cheap, or cheaper, than living outside the city.
More on SmartMoney and MSN Money:
There is nothing fundamentally different about student loans that make them different from any other loan and no reason for the bankruptcy laws to be applied the same. Further if the loans are not discharchable then why is there interest on the debt? The interest is to cover risk and as the law now stands there is no risk. Government is supposed to be non profit so why the interest? And why the interest on the interest since this can cause the debt to accelerate beyound the capacity to repay ever.
A cynical person would say that the education system is being setup to deny success to the poor, and working class. To make sure that even if you do succeed you won't succeed.
There is a solution to the problem that too many in America are not ready to wrap their heads around yet, UNIVERSAL EDUCATION. We are perfectly capable of educating everyone in this country who is capable and willing to be educated. We should at the very least provide for the best brightest to become doctors and engineers.
I guess it depends on the city. Large cities: I have visited Chicago and San Francisco and looked around. San Fran has no supermarkets in town. Chicago only has high end markets downtown. To meet any needs, one has to hop on a bus or train.
Living in a medium sized city, absolutely everything downtown closed up two decades ago leaving a lot of office spaces, exposition/concert venues, govt buildings and homeless missions. The city bus system here is woefully inadequate with runs ending at 6:30 pm and a taxi cab takes 90 minutes at least; cabs may not be hailed. The poor sprawl that developed made all the small discount places, grocery stores and most gas stations close up and leave the area leaving these residents with the need to hop on the bus system just to meet basic need for food. Some of the downtown area has been reclaimed for the bars, entertainment venues and high end shops but it still leaves the people who moved into the converted lofts and old high rise hotels driving to meet their basic needs.
Anyone interested in living near work and entertainment in a downtown area needs to impress upon their political representatives the need to encourage chain grocers and discount stores to reinvest in downtown areas again to keep this an affordable lifestyle alternative.

U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham raised more than $1.1 million in the third quarter of 2013.
The figure released Tuesday means that the Republican has nearly $7 million in the bank. His campaign says that's the most that it is ever recorded.
Graham raised a total of $1.17 million from July 1 through Sept. 30 and spent more than $533,000. The Republican's campaign says this is the third quarter in a row that Graham has raised more than $1.1 million.
Some Republicans in South Carolina don't think Graham is conservative enough. Several candidates have announced their intent to challenge him in next year's GOP primary as he seeks his third term.

Phoenix Police say they are searching for four suspects following an armed robbery at home near 36th Avenue and Maryland. Sgt. Steve Martos says the suspects went to a home along West Sierra Vista on Monday morning and began demanding money and valuables from two men inside. There were also three children home at the time. The children, all under the age of 10, were not hurt, but police say the two male victims, ages 17 and 43, were injured. One of the men had his head bandaged as he talked to police. Martos says the suspects fled the scene with several valuables from the home, including two vehicles belonging to the victims: a 2007 gray Ford Focus with Oklahoma license plate 644KNG and a 2013 white Jeep Grand Cherokee with Arizona license plate 4049YK.Police say the suspects are described as Hispanic males. Investigators were trying to determine exactly what happened and whether the victims knew the suspects or if the home was deliberately targeted.
If you have any information about this case, call the Phoenix Police at (602) 262-6151.

By Matt Patches, Hollywood Staff
Making a spoof movie ain't what it used to be.
Comparing his latest endeavor, writing and producing this week's Scary Movie V, to his vast body of comedy work, David Zucker admits that life was a bit easier in 1980 when he and his collaborators set off to shoot Airplane!. Widely considered the pinnacle of spoof cinema, Airplane! riffs on a select number of films. It's Zero Hour!, Airport '75, and few dashes of Saturday Night Fever and From Here to Eternity for good measure. The Scary franchise is a different beast.
Following in the footsteps of the Wayans' first two Scary Movie films, modern spoofing had a new demand for Zucker when he took over the franchise for Scary Movie 3. ''This is the hardest thing to do, to weave together plots from different movies,'' he says. ''You have to make your best guess. In all these movies, we end up reshooting. You have to put it in front of an audience. What happened in [Scary Movie V] is that we used Paranormal Activity, elements of all of them, and Black Swan, and Planet of the Apes. What we found out was, none of those movies had an actual monster. We didn't realize that until halfway through. Fortunately, Mama came along.''
When Zucker describes the Scary Movie process, it sounds grueling, sporadic, challenging, and ultimately gratifying when a moment of clarity emerges from the chaos. As a true auteur of comedic filmmaking, Zucker has long lived by a listed mantra, 15 rules that help keep him on track as he makes a movie. The glossary earns laughs on its own (terms include ''Gilding the Lily,'' taking a joke so far that it's no longer funny, and ''Floocher Dialogue,'' filler lines recited by foreground characters to enable the audience to focus on a background joke), but they're important to Zucker's approach to making movies.
''The rules are just us trying to not repeat the same mistakes,'' says the producer. ''You disobey these rules at your peril One of the things is, movies have to be grounded in reality. It's something BASEketball didn't have and Top Secret didn't have. They didn't have character arcs.''
That's why Mama helped reinvigorate Scary Movie V - but not in the scripting stage. ''Much later into production we incorporated Mama and even Evil Dead,'' Zucker says. ''We actually spoof the trailer [laughs]. I always say, 'Kids, don't try this at home.''' The producer admits that Scary Movie V began production without an antagonist, a no-no in the Zucker book of comedy. Including the ghastly villainess of that film gave the movie a new arc. ''How well a job we did, I can't judge, because I'm right in the middle of it. But for sure, we just really knocked ourselves out trying to make it into a cohesive plot structure. That's what Mama gave us, because Jessica Chastain had such a good character.''
Don't get him wrong: Zucker prefers a calmer, more structured filmmaking style. He doesn't like endless nights of rewriting and reshooting. In fact, Zucker wasn't even planning on returning to the Scary Movie franchise until two of Hollywood's most influential producers asked him to. ''The Weinsteins asked us to do this. They had to make Scary Movie, so I did it,'' he says. ''It's not something I planned on doing, but it's still what I love to do.''
Working on Scary Movie V with Bob and Harvey Weinstein is a bit of thankless task, rounding up all the ideas that must be in the movie, and piecing them together into something watchable. When asked if it's anything like writing Kentucky Fried Movie, his wonderfully manic sketch comedy film from 1977, Zucker politely says, ''Well, that's a theory.''
''There were some instances where we were directed to throw some things at the screen that didn't fit in the story,'' Zucker says. ''And that's not the right thing to do, so those things didn't work. But we cut them out. No matter how crazy and zany these spoof are, and they're pretty crazy, we still have to obey plot, structure, and character. It has to be coherent. If you take a side track, it won't work.''
One thing Zucker had little to do with was Scary Movie V's stunt casting, which brings back Scary Movie vet Charlie Sheen, and enlists newbies Lindsay Lohan and Mob Wives star Big Ang. Zucker was happy to reunite with Sheen (''[He's] just a dream to work with. It's like driving a fancy car.''). The others well, he didn't know who Big Ang was, but he made it work. ''The studio has this franchise and they know what they want to do with it,'' he says. ''So they have very strong opinions on who they want to cast. And we accommodate that.'' Zucker laughs at an on-set title he's earned from keeping production on its toes. ''They always joke about me because I come in in my scrubs and operate on the patient.''
The reason Zucker believes he can work in this fashion is because he's well aware of what has and hasn't worked past. One thing that didn't work: his 2008, right-wing skewing An American Carol. ''If I had to do it over again I don't think I ever would have done it,'' he says. ''Again, it has to be more entertainment than preachy. The talking points were too much out front. I just wanted to make it funny.'' Zucker recalls having an amazing experience making the critically-maligned Carol, which he co-wrote with his writing partner Lewis Friedman (who he points out is ''a liberal New Yorker and a far left Democrat!''), and thought would play to all audiences. ''We just wanted to make it as funny as we could while poking fun at the left, which nobody does,'' Zucker says. ''People who know me know I'm not that serious about anything. I don't take the politics seriously. I don't think Republicans go to see movies, that's the other thing! It was a misguided thing.''
With Scary Movie V in the can, Zucker is ready to get back to the movie he originally intended to make before the Weinsteins rang him up. He says it will take its cues from The Naked Gun. ''The Naked Gun style is a sane way of doing a movie,'' he says. He hopes to direct his next script, which preys on popcorn movies in a method akin to his police spoof series (a Bourne-style update, anyone?). He also sees potential in reviving Naked Gun.
''You could do another Naked Gun, with a reboot. Like Star Trek,'' Zucker says. The immediate retort is, really, how could anyone live up to Leslie Nielsen? ''There are people who can do that and they're not famous. You wouldn't know who they were. But I know actors who can do it. Again, I think Paramount has an international brand in Naked Gun and I think there's something you can do.'' For now, he hopes to revive the spirit of Naked Gun rather than the actual property. ''There's room for a Naked Gun style. A bumbling guy in a position where he's respected. Leslie Nielsen played Lieutenant Frank Drebin and nobody seemed to have a clue that he's an idiot. I want to do the character, but not the specific [job]. Not Naked Gun.''
Zucker thinks Scary Movie V survived the turbulent process of tinkering on the fly. He came to the movie prepared to break it, start over, reconfigure, and put it out into the world while looking forward. It's in the rules. ''That's another glossary term we have: 'Apollo 13,''' he says. ''When your spacecraft is in trouble and you have to get it back alive. So you use spare parts and do anything that you can to save it.'' So however Scary Movie V is received, he's ready to go back to the drawing board and make new movies. ''One of the important things is not to blame other people for your failures (and that goes for regular life too). If a movie tanks, you have to look at what you did and figure out what happened.''

For those that are out there job hunting and looking for a steady paycheck, performing well on a job interview is key.
You may be prepared for the standard interview questions, but are you prepared for some odd questions?
A new survey says you better be prepared for strange questions.
The people at glassdoor.com say employers are starting to ask some off-the-wall questions of applicants, all in an attempt to learn something about the job seeker that isn't on their resume.
And some of these are really odd. People submitted questions they've been asked on job interviews and they included…
How many quarters would you need to stack to reach the top of the Empire State building?
What do you think about when you are alone in the car?
If you had to pick, what kitchen utensil would you be?
The answer may not be important, but employers want to see you think on your feet, and maybe see your creativity.

Increased seat belt patrols take to Fillmore County roads on May 19
Tuesday, May 13, 2014 3:42 AM
Motorists and passengers are reminded of the importance of buckling up as extra "Click It or Ticket" seat belt patrols take to the roads statewide for two weeks - May 19 to June 1. The Fillmore County Sheriff's Office, Chatfield Police Department and Preston Police Department are among nearly 400 Minnesota agencies increasing patrols to encourage motorists to buckle up.
In the last five years on Minnesota roads (2009 to 2013), there were 1,423 motor vehicle occupant deaths, of which 587 (41.3 percent) were not buckled up. According to the Minnesota Department of Public Safety Office of Traffic Safety, data from the past five years also shows:
More than 40 percent (237 of 587) of unbelted fatalities were between 15 and 29 years old;
Nearly 64 percent (190 of 298) of drinking drivers killed were not wearing a seat belt;
Nearly 44 percent (474 of 1,084) of those killed in greater Minnesota crashes were unbelted compared to 33 percent (113 of 339) in the seven-county metro area.
"Every year, teens and young adults represent a large percentage of unbelted traffic deaths, which indicates there is still a major issue with seat belt usage among that age group," said Sheriff Daryl Jensen. "For whatever reason - be it comfort, restriction or philosophy - some motorists and passengers still refuse to wear their seat belts. We ask them to remember that their minor inconvenience could turn out to be a major life saver."
In Minnesota, drivers and passengers in all seating positions, including in the back seat, are required to be buckled up or seated in the correct child restraint. Officers will stop and ticket unbelted drivers or passengers. Seat belts must be worn correctly - low and snug across the hips; shoulder straps should never be tucked under an arm or behind the back.
In rollover crashes, unbelted motorists are usually ejected from the vehicle. In most cases, the vehicle will roll over them. Often, unbelted motorists will crack teeth out on steering wheels or break their nose, and even slam into and injure or kill others in the vehicle.
In a crash, odds are six times greater for injury if a motorist is not buckled up.
Minnesota statute requires children under age 8 to ride in a federally approved car seat or booster, unless the child is 4 feet 9 inches or taller. Safety restraint steps progress as children age and grow:
Rear-facing infant seats - Newborns to at least 1 year and 20 pounds; recommended up to age 2. It is safest to keep a child rear-facing as long as possible.
Forward-facing toddler seats - Age 2 until around age 4. It's preferable to keep children in a harnessed restraint as long as possible.
Booster seats - Use once outgrown a forward-facing harnessed restraint; safest to remain in a booster until 4 feet 9 inches tall, or at least age 8.
Seat belts - A child is ready for an adult seat belt when they can sit with their back against the vehicle seat, knees bent comfortably and completely over the vehicle seat edge without slouching, and feet touching the floor. Children 4 feet 9 inches tall or taller can correctly fit in a lap/shoulder belt.
The Fillmore County Sheriff's Office stresses the importance to promote the seat belt enforcement to encourage belt use.
"We want motorists to be the true enforcers of the law and speak up to remind others to belt up," said Jensen "The last thing we care to do is write seat belt tickets."
The Click It or Ticket seat belt enforcement and education is a component of the state's Toward Zero Deaths (TZD) initiative. A primary vision of the TZD program is to create a safe driving culture in Minnesota in which motorists support a goal of zero road fatalities by practicing and promoting safe and smart driving behavior. TZD focuses on the application of four strategic areas to reduce crashes - education, enforcement, engineering and emergency trauma response.

Morosco Theatre

|February 5, 1917
|Herbert J. Krapp
The Morosco Theatre was a Broadway theatre located at 217 West 45th Street in the heart of the theater district in midtown-Manhattan, New York, United States.
It was designed by architect Herbert J. Krapp for the Shuberts, who constructed it for Oliver Morosco in gratitude for his helping them break the monopoly of the Theatrical Syndicate. It had approximately 955 seats. It opened on February 5, 1917 with the musical Canary Cottage, with a book by Morosco and a score by Earl Carroll.
The Shuberts lost the building in the Depression, and City Playhouses, Inc. bought it at auction in 1943. It was sold in 1968 to Bankers Trust Company and – after a massive "Save the Theatres" protest movement mounted by various actors and other theatrical folk[1][2][3][4][5] failed – was razed in 1982, along with the Helen Hayes, the Bijou, and remnants of the Astor and the Gaiety theatres; it was replaced by the highrise 49-story Marriott Marquis hotel and Marquis Theatre.
Bob Martin's musical comedy The Drowsy Chaperone makes mention of the Morosco Theatre. The title is a reference to a fictional show which, according to the narrative, opened at the Morosco in 1928. The narrator goes on to say that the Morosco was demolished in 1982, and a hotel was built in its place. That hotel is the Marriott Marquis, which houses the Marquis Theatre, where The Drowsy Chaperone opened in 2006.

The National Hockey League has withdrawn its latest CBA proposal to the NHL Players' Association after a deadline to play a full 82-game season passed Thursday evening with no new discussions between the two sides.
An announcement to cancel games for the rest of November is expected as early as Friday.
Cancelling major events such as the Winter Classic and the All-Star game could be the league's next move. The league cancelled regular season games from Oct. 25 throught Nov. 1 last week, wiping out 135 games in total.
There were no talks held between both sides on Thursday and none have been held since last week's NHL proposal and counter-proposals from the NHLPA.
The NHL presented a proposal that included a 50-50 split of hockey-related revenues. But that was contingent on the sides making the Thursday deadline. The union responded with three counterproposals, all of which would get the sides to a 50-50 deal, but the league quickly rejected them.
"When we delivered the proposal last Tuesday, we told them it would be on the table through today," NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly told TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun on ESPN.com Thursday afternoon. "Having not reached agreement through today, I expect that we'll formally notify the union Friday that the proposal is no longer on the table. We're going to take it back internally and figure out where we go from here."
Daly also emphasized that he was not threatening the players in any way, but underlying what the league had already told the the NHLPA last Tuesday when it delivered the proposal.
"This proposal no longer works because it was a proposal to save 82 games," Daly said. "We have to re-think where we are, and what type of season we're looking at, and we have to formulate and construct a proposal that makes sense for the reality of where we are."
NHLPA executive director Donald Fehr was not surprised by the league's statement on withdrawing the offer.
"This is a standard approach, I think it was done in the NBA in the same way," Fehr told TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun on ESPN.com. "Review the history here: they make a proposal, it's essentially a take it or leave it, we respond on the core economics, they take 10 minutes and say no. They tell all the players if we're agreeable to everything except the Make Whole (provision) including all the stuff that's in there, I can give Gary a telephone call. And then we have made several efforts, including yesterday, to say we're prepared to sit down and negotiate with no pre-conditions. They essentially said No. It takes two to negotiate. They seem to be really good at imposing deadlines and issuing ultimatums and having lockouts. It seems to be something they're well-practised at."
