Senior Leadership Changes Boost AIN Publisher: New Chief Operating Officer And Editor-in-Chief Appointed
AIN Publications—publisher of Aviation International News and Business Jet Traveler–has made two key changes in its management structure. Effective July 23, Charles Alcock became editor-in-chief of AIN Publications, with overall responsibility for all editorial products (both print and digital), and including BJT. Former editor-in-chief Randy Padfield has assumed the new position of chief operating officer for AIN Publications. He will be directly responsible for the day-to-day running of the company and will also be leading strategic planning for medium- and long-term business development.
Charles Alcock joined the company in 1990 and since 1995 has been based in the UK, serving as international editor of AIN. His main responsibility has been AIN's international airshow editions. He has also been involved in the development of AINtv, as well as contributed editorial content for all AIN products. Charles has been a business journalist specializing in the aviation industry since 1986. He and his family will be relocating to the U.S.
Randy Padfield started working for AIN as a freelance writer in 1989, became a full-time editor in 1993 and was appointed editor-in-chief in November 1998. Before joining AIN, Randy authored four books on aviation and flew helicopters commercially and in the U.S. Air Force. He holds a master's degree in engineering management from UCLA and is a 1971 Air Force Academy graduate. At AIN Publications, Randy guided the launch of Business Jet Traveler and the transition of the company's editorial products into the digital media age, with the development of AINonline.com and its group of e-newsletters.
"I could not be happier about this significant announcement," commented Wilson Leach, AIN Publications' managing director and founder. "These are major promotions for both Randy and Charlie, two key executives who will guide and shape the future of AIN."
"Randy has been promoted to the second highest position in the company, reporting to me and effectively being responsible for the day-to-day running of the entire business," said Leach. "Since Jim Holahan retired nearly 14 years ago I have worked closely with Randy, and have come to appreciate and respect his ability to fully take charge of projects. Randy will take on the full responsibility of running AIN's highly complex and growing media enterprise around the world.
"There is none better than Charlie Alcock to take over from Randy as editor-in-chief of all AIN publications," Leach concluded. "I have had the distinct pleasure of working closely with Charlie, as he has handled all of our international coverage as well as our show publishing projects. He is ideally qualified to maintain the highest-quality AIN signature brand editorial products around the world. Our editorial mission has not changed in 40 years: we write for the reader. Charlie will lead the editorial team to continue to produce–long into the future–the most accurate, newsworthy and insightful content in all of aviation."

Greetings all,
A few years ago we had a blizzard here in Georgia, USA. 55 mph winds and 20 inches of snow fell in one day. The most amazing thing was that two days later there was no sign of snow and it was sunny and relatively warm.
I feel for those that have all that snow and ice. I got a taste of bad weather a couple weeks ago and I like it not!
I didn't know about the hurricane in Australia. I hope it hasn't dumped more rain in Queensland. They've had a horrible time of it. I hope things settle down in Egypt as well.
Pattie, I liked your bird pix. How do you keep the squirrels from eating all the suit ?
Stay warm an safe peeps!

Actress Jane Fonda and music producer Richard Perry have bought an estate in Beverly Hills for $7.3 million. The Trousdale Estates property was the longtime home of Emmy-winning television director John Rich.
The two-story home, built in 1961 and completely renovated, features a glass elevator, vaulted ceilings, three fireplaces, four bedrooms, 6.5 bathrooms and more than 7,500 square feet of living space. There are photovoltaic panels, a solar-heated swimming pool and other energy-saving amenities.
Fonda, 74, won Oscars in 1972 for "Klute" and in 1979 for "Coming Home." She will star in the ABC comedy "Now What?" and will play First Lady Nancy Reagan in the upcoming film "The Butler."
Perry, 70, has produced albums for such singing stars as Rod Stewart and Carly Simon. Fonda and Perry started dating several years ago.
Rich, who died in January at 86, worked on such iconic '60s shows as "All in the Family," "Bonanza" and "Gilligan's Island."
The three-quarter-acre-plus property, sold for the first time in more than four decades, was listed at $11.9 million when it first came on the market in June 2011.
James Muske of Coldwell Banker was the listing agent. Zachary Deutsch and Gabriela Effron of Rodeo Realty represented the buyers, according to the Multiple Listing Service.

Children love to imitate adults, especially in the kitchen. They seem magically drawn to the all of the whirring sounds, flashing lights and shiny utensils. And while it's true that the kitchen can be dangerous territory for inquiring minds (and hands), don't put up the "No Trespassing" sign just yet.
With the proper supervision, children can safely accomplish simple cooking tasks. They can retrieve ingredients from the cupboards and refrigerator, grease and flour pans, and measure and mix ingredients. While it may slow down the dinner-making process a bit, take comfort knowing that cooking is an educational experience for children (just don't tell them). It helps them learn about measurements, encounter new vocabulary, and practice fine motor skills. More importantly, cooking provides a priceless bonding experience–a chance to be creative, ask questions and solve problems together.
Getting children to play a role in preparing family meals may teach them about nutrition while expanding their palates. Kids know they like jellybeans, but they might not understand why they can't have their favorite "food" at every meal. Don't expect finicky eaters to suddenly beg for shrimp scampi, but children are more likely to eat a food that they helped make.
You can build a little one's cooking confidence by introducing a few easy recipes. Something as simple as spreading peanut butter and jelly on bread can provide a child with a sense of accomplishment, and you can up the creativity quotient by using cookie cutters to cut out fun shapes, like daisies and dinosaurs. For pre-readers, boxed instant cake mix has illustrated, easy-to-follow instructions. You can also turn to the hundreds of kid-friendly cookbooks for inspiration. Many of the books on the market today offer delicious and nutritious recipes that kids will enjoy making and eating.
Kid-sized play kitchens, utensils and pots and pans can help children refine their cooking skills in the playroom. A supply of Play-Doh or grocery-bought dried lentils in a variety of shapes and colors are cheap and easy ways to create a more hands on experience.
Finally, help children feel welcome in the kitchen by relinquishing a little control. It doesn't matter if an eggshell slips into the batter or if things get a little messy (they will). Give them their own apron and set of cooking utensils to use and store in the kitchen and one day you may be rewarded with breakfast in bed. In the meantime, hope for some help with the dishes.

I have a 13 yr old grand daughter who is becoming a culinary prodigy. Last year she was diagnosed with kidney disease & was forced to learn to cook low sodium food. This has brought about a complete change in the way she thinks about and appreciates food. She recently started a blog for teenagers with recipes and reviews about restaurants. This was a kid who a year ago was picky and would never try anything new. All this came about because she got in the kitchen with her mom and learned to cook.

Source: My ear
Submitter Comment: So I've been at 5/8" for about 8 months and thought my ears had dead stretched to 3/4" because my jewelry kept falling out and I could almost get my 3/4" plugs in. I was so excited, istead of just taping my existing plugs like a normal person, I put silicone in my lobes because I figured I was close enough already that it couldn't hurt. Oh how wrong I was. At least, with my right ear anyway. My left lobe looked fine when I took the silicone out to shower.
What's Awful: Stretching with silicone. Don't do it, kids!
How It Can Be Fixed: Not using silicone, for starters. As you can see, I'm leaving my lobe naked and I've covered my ear in triple antibiotic ointment. When it's not so raw and pissed off I'll start doing sea salt soaks and when I'm able to wear jewelry in it again, I'll be sure to take extra time and care in getting back to 3/4"
Also DO NOT FORGET 17mm and 18mm!! It will ease your stretching process and help prevent this kind of thing from happening. :)

A former Valley grocery store owner has been sentenced for running a $10 million money order fraud scheme out of his Chandler grocery store.
U.S. District Judge G. Murray Snow sentenced Gjergj Kol Mihilli, 61, of Gilbert to 51 months in prison and ordered him to pay $302,420.
Gjergj Kol Mihilli pleaded guilty to bank fraud and aggravated identity theft and his two sons, Nikolas George Mihilli, 35, and Nino Joseph Mihilli, 31, also pleaded guilty to related charges.
The 46-count indictment alleges that the three men operated a money order fraud scheme from the Mama Mia Panaderia & Market in Chandler. The business contracted with Merchants Bank of California in order to sell the bank's Unigram money orders.
Over a two-year period the trio issued thousands of false, worthless money orders, utilizing fictitious names. These false money orders were then deposited into a Wells Fargo business account, which artificially inflated the account balance, so that funds were made available to pay Merchants Bank for issuing the money orders.
The indictment alleges that the defendants issued and deposited more than 10,000 false money orders totaling approximately $10 million.
An extensive joint investigation was completed by multiple federal and state agencies including the Chandler Police Department, ICE Homeland Security Investigations and Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation.

Except they are geared, and have cleared the entire raid. Every single "elitist" guild out there allows their current members to bring alts to non-progression raids.
If this was a bunch of guys who got together and cleared Ulduar in blues without having done it before it would be extremely impressive. All this shows is that Ulduar lacks classic "gear checks" (aka bosses in Sunwell were the top guilds had to stack Shamans and Shadow priests to down them).
You could go back to Sunwell or BT in iLevel 245 gear and if you hadn't done those fights you would wipe a lot. If you didn't have boss strategy vids most guilds would take months to learn the fights even with current gear.

Immunodeficiency disorders
Immunodeficiency disorders occur when the body's immune response is reduced or absent.
See also: Autoimmune disorders
Alternative Names
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
The immune system is made up of lymphoid tissue in the body, which includes the bone marrow, lymph nodes, thymus, tonsils, and parts of the spleen and gastrointestinal tract. In addition, there are proteins and cells in the blood that are part of the immune system.
The immune system helps protect the body from harmful substances called antigens. Examples of antigens include bacteria, viruses, toxins, cancer cells, and foreign blood or tissues from another person or species.
When the immune system detects an antigen, it responds by producing proteins called antibodies that destroy the harmful substances. The immune system response also involves a process called phagocytosis. During this process, certain white blood cells swallow and destroy bacteria and other foreign substances.
Immune system disorders occur when the immune system does not fight tumors or harmful substances as it should. The immune response may be overactive or underactive.
Immunodeficiency disorders may affect any part of the immune system. Most commonly, such a condition occurs when specialized white blood cells called T or B lymphocytes (or both) do not work as well as they should, or when your body doesn't produce enough antibodies.
Inherited immunodeficiency disorders that affect B cells include:
- Hypogammaglobulinemia, which usually causes respiratory and gastrointestinal infections
- Agammaglobulinemia, which results in frequent severe infections early in life, and is often deadly
Inherited immunodeficiency disorders that affect T cells may cause increased susceptibility to fungi, resulting in recurring Candida (yeast) infections. Inherited combined immunodeficiency affects both T cells and B cells. It may be deadly within the first year of life if it isn't treated early.
People are said to be immunosuppressed when they have an immunodeficiency disorder due to medicines that affect the immune system (such as corticosteroids). Immunosuppression is also a common side effect of chemotherapy given to treat cancer.
Acquired immunodeficiency may be a complication of diseases such as HIV infection and malnutrition (particularly with a lack of protein). Many cancers may also cause immunodeficiency.
People who have had their spleen removed have an acquired immunodeficiency, and are at higher risk for infection by certain bacteria that the spleen would normally help fight. Patients with diabetes are also at higher risk for certain infections.
Increasing age reduces the effectiveness of the immune system to some degree. Immune system tissues (particularly lymphoid tissue such as the thymus) shrink, and the number and activity of white blood cells drop.
The following conditions and diseases can result in an immunodeficiency disorder:
- Ataxia-telangiectasia
- Chediak-Higashi syndrome
- Combined immunodeficiency disease
- Complement deficiencies
- DiGeorge syndrome
- Hypogammaglobulinemia
- Job syndrome
- Leukocyte adhesion defects
- Panhypogammaglobulinemia
- Bruton disease
- Congenital agammaglobulinemia
- Selective deficiency of IgA
- Wiscott-Aldrich syndrome
The symptoms vary with the specific disorder.
Signs and tests
Your doctor might think you have an immunodeficiency disorder if you have:
- Persistent, recurrent infections
- Severe infection by microorganisms that do not usually cause severe infection
Other signs include:
- Poor response to treatment for infections
- Delayed or incomplete recovery from illness
- Certain types of cancers (such as Kaposi's sarcoma or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma)
- Certain infections (including some forms of pneumonia or recurrent yeast infections)
Tests used to help diagnose an immunodeficiency disorder may include:
- Complement levels in the blood, or other tests to measure substances released by the immune system
- Immunoglobulin levels in the blood
- Protein electrophoresis (blood or urine)
- T (thymus derived) lymphocyte count
- White blood cell count
The goal of treatment is to prevent infections and treat any disease and infections that do develop.
If you have a weakened immune system, you should avoid contact with persons who have infections or contagious disorders. You may have to avoid people who have been vaccinated with live virus vaccines within the past 2 weeks.
If you develop an infection, your doctor will treat you aggressively. This may involve long-term use of antibiotic or antifungal medications and preventive (prophylactic) treatments.
Interferon is used to treat viral infections and some types of cancer. It is an immunostimulant drug, a medicine that makes the immune system work better.
Persons with HIV or AIDS may take combinations of drugs to reduce the amount of virus in their immune systems and improve their immunity.
Patients who are going to have a planned splenectomy should be vaccinated two weeks before the surgery against bacteria such as Streptococcus pneumonia and Hemophilus influenzae.
Bone marrow transplants may be used to treat certain immunodeficiency conditions.
Passive immunity (receiving antibodies produced by another person or animal) may occasionally be recommended to prevent illness after exposure to a microorganism.
Patients with hypogammaglobulinemia are treated with periodic immunoglobulin infusions through a vein to raise blood immunoglobulin levels toward the normal range and protect against many infections.
Expectations (prognosis)
Some immunodeficiency disorders are mild and result in occasional illness. Others are severe and may be fatal. Immunosuppression that results from medications is often reversible once the medication is stopped.
- Disease development
- Frequent or persistent illness
- Increased risk for certain cancers or tumors
- Opportunistic infections
Calling your health care provider
Call your health care provider immediately if you are on chemotherapy or corticosteroids (such as prednisone, Medrol, or Decadron) and you develop a fever greater than 100.5 degrees Fahrenheit or have a cough with shortness of breath.
Go to the emergency room if you have a stiff neck and headache with the fever.
Contact your health care provider if you have repeated yeast infections or oral thrush.
There is no known way to prevent congenital immunodeficiency disorders. Genetic counseling should be offered to people who want to have children and who have a family history of immunodeficiency disorders.
Practicing safe sex and avoiding the sharing of body fluids may help prevent HIV infection and AIDS. Good nutrition may prevent acquired immunodeficiency caused by malnutrition.

Almost great...
By: Dave
I ordered a pair of these in size 11.5 EEE which is pretty close to my normal size. If anything they seem a little large (both length and width). For me the soles are a little too flexible, even with a stiffer insole. I prefer a little more support but they are workable. My only real complaint is that the crossover strap looks like it buckles is really a snap underneath. About the 3rd time I undid the strap to adjust the laces the snap broke off of the buckle and until I can get it repaired they are unwearable. Be careful when unsnapping the buckle from the boot.

Great boots...
By: john
Great looking boots and they fit well, even better with Dr. Scholls inserts. I would buy these Milwaukee boots again. Fast shipping. Buy 1/2 size bigger than your regular shoe size. Most places sell these for $110.00, you just cant beat this road captain.

Great comfort Great Value...
By: Lee Meister
I have had several pairs of riding boots over the years.. These boots were great right out of the box. Durable and well built, with little or no break in time. They have a good look and are surly my favorite riding boots going into the 2014 season. Very pleased with my purchase.

Great looking boots and they work well with orthodics!...
By: K. Borden
I love these boots!! Great looking and very comfortable! I have a full shoe orthodic and they fit in these boots no problem after taking the insole out. Very roomy toe area and not tight across the instep like so many I've tried. To undo the snap under the buckle make sure you put your thumb or finger under the metal clip that is attached to the snap head instead of just pulling up on the buckle itself. I'm very pleased with my purchase!!

Once the AP offered its article out to members, word about Wilkes crossed the country in small newspaper and large, from the Kansas City Star, St. Petersburg Times
Wilkes University and mentoring:
Wilkes is about one-to-one relationships where the difference between doing something ordinary or extraordinary can come down to a simple cup of coffee.
Mentoring is not just branding or advertising. It is the sum total of the Wilkes experience.

Campaign Goal:
Raise awareness of Wilkes University over the long term as a university dedicated to academic excellence through mentoring

Speaking of tires, a suspension is only as good as the tires put with it. I chose Continental Conti Sport 2 V-Max to wrap the black forged Fikse Mach V wheels. With this much power and the recent Diffsonline 2.93 differential addition (ec, May '07), it's important to have the best tire possible, with plenty of headroom in the speed rating department. It's the only tire rated for 220 mph. With its asymmetric design, the idea behind the V-Max is not only substantial wet and dry grip but coping with the forces generated at high speeds. It does so with a super-strong structure and a groove pattern that features circumferential cooling grooves and lateral notches for maintaining cooler temperatures.
The car feels like a new model all over again. The TC Kline suspension really is the best of both street and track worlds. At its most forgiving setting, it rides almost as soft as a stock-suspended E36 M3. It's a nice setup for cruising around town or driving in the rain. Crank it down a little more and it still provides a smooth feel on the street, yet gives the confidence to throw the car around familiar turns. It helps the tires provide more grip than I'll ever need in the dry and plenty of grip in the wet. On the softest setting, I've logged a peak 0.95 g around a 270-degree turn at just 60 mph-without breaking sweat. And the stiffer settings leave plenty of room for greater performance with R-compound tires on track days.
Under hard braking with the 14-inch Brembo GT brakes, the tires grip extremely well and the ABS kicks in only if I get a little crazy with the pedal. Considering the braking forces and the horsepower, one would think front- and rear-end squat would be an issue, but it feels perfectly balanced overall.
When I started this project in 2000, the goal was 250 wheel-hp, achieved the following year with a Turner Motorsport cam kit, Evosport pulleys and a Supersprint engine-back exhaust system. In late 2001, I decided to turbocharge the car and the 400 wheel-hp target was with Active Autowerke's stage 2.5 kit, using a 60:1 compressor wheel boosting 15 psi, with some racing fuel in the mix.?
With Evosport's hard-wired installation and custom tuning of an AEM engine management system in 2004, the doors were opened for the current Speed Force Racing/Turbonetics T66 custom turbo system. With a 15-percent mix of 112-octane, the car was getting over 530 wheel-hp in third gear at 18 psi-the maximum load it would see on the dyno. On the street, the load would hold a steady 20 psi-which I would say is easily over 550 wheel-hp.
To call this a super 'street' car, I wanted a 500 wheel-hp pass in fourth gear, using nothing but 92-octane. After some time tuning the ignition maps with the assistance of Evosport's AEM guru, Gary Karamikian, I saw a detuned 506 hp with 440 lb-ft at the wheels in fourth gear (511 wheel-hp with 400 lb-ft in third) at 17 psi with just eight degrees of timing in the upper midrange that ramps up smoothly to a modest 11 degrees up top. Accomplishing this through a not-so-big P-trim turbine wheel in a 0.81 AR housing-plus 8.2:1 compression and stock 95 M3 cams-was very satisfying.

Arexis Fongman: A Case Study on Casual Racism
First and foremost, thanks to Wall Street Journal columnist Jeff Yang and composer/lyricist Timothy Huang for bringing this to attention.
Alexis Fishman, at first sight, seems like a perfectly average woman. She graduated in 2004 from a performing arts school in Western Australia and went on to pursue a career in the arts, now 'based permanently in New York', as per her official website. Her performer's page is professional, her website is tastefully metropolitan, and the posts on her personal Facebook give no indication of strange or deviant social behavior. She is, in essence, the typical young woman trying to make a name for herself in the performing arts industry. Why, then, has she created a Facebook profile dedicated solely to the enthusiastic spread of what amounts to racist garbage? Internet, meet Arexis Fongman.
What a disgusting human being. You can give her a piece of your mind here.

Big news in the colorectal cancer prevention and screening community yesterday! In a never-before-seen move, the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) jointly proposed Cologuard as a new option for colorectal cancer screening. What is Cologuard? Cologuard, produced by Exact Sciences, is a non-invasive (not requiring insertion of instruments into the body), stool-based (you test your poo) DNA test designed to analyze the presence of blood and certain DNA mutations in a patient's stool sample that can indicate cancer and/or precancerous polyps. Cells of DNA are released into the stool continuously as part of the digestive process. There are already at-home screening options …
Colorectal Cancer Is (or Could Be) the Poster Child for Cancer Prevention
February is Cancer Prevention Month, and colorectal cancer (CRC) is a poster child, as one of the few cancers that can be literally seen and removed before it becomes cancer, or can be caught early enough in regular screening to be literally cured. Ponder these facts, based on 20 years of experience and summarized by Linda Rabeneck, MD, MPH of Cancer Care Ontario at the recent "GI-ASCO" (Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium of the American Society of Clinica Oncology): Annual stool tests (fecal occult blood test, or FOBT) reduce deaths from colorectal cancer by 15 to 33 percent. The newer FIT stool test (fecal immunochemical test) appears to be even better than the …
Giving Patients a Screening Choice Matters
When patients were offered a choice of colorectal cancer screening with either FOBT or colonoscopy, they were significantly more likely to complete that screening than when their doctors recommended only FOBT or only colonoscopy. Nearly 1000 racially and ethnically diverse patients in urban primary care practices were randomly assigned to get colorectal cancer screening via: Fecal occult blood testing (FOBT) Colonoscopy, or Their choice of either FOBT or colonoscopy. Overall, 58 percent were screened within the next year.
Patients Not Keeping Up with FOBT Screening
Once is not enough for FOBT! Fecal occult blood test (FOBT) is an effective colorectal cancer screening method, but it needs to be repeated every one or two years to reduce the risk of dying from colon or rectal cancer. But almost half of a group of insured patients initially screened with fecal occult blood testing didn't follow-up with another FOBT within two years, as recommended.
Annual Fecal Occult Blood Test Cost-Effective Screening Option
What's the best way to get large groups of people screened for colorectal cancer? Surprisingly it may not be colonoscopy but fecal occult blood testing (FOBT). A computer model has found annual home testing with a fecal occult blood test, either Hemoccult II® or Hemoccult SENSA®, is more cost-effective than colonoscopy every 10 years to screen people of average risk for colorectal cancer. The model compared the number of life years saved under several scenarios of costs and compliance with annual testing and follow-up colonoscopies after positive guaiac tests. For the same fixed budget, more people could be screened with an FOBT and more life years saved.
Many Doctors Doing Colorectal Cancer Screening Wrong
FOBT screening saves lives, but only when it is done right. Three out of four primary care doctors did a fecal occult blood test once during an office visit, a method that is ineffective in finding cancer or preventing death from colorectal cancer. One out of four used the in-office test exclusively. Less than half of doctors had a system in place to be sure that home tests were completed and returned.
More Choices Increase Colorectal Cancer Screening Use
When people were offered a personal choice of either FOBT or colonoscopy screening by their primary care provider, more actually completed the test they chose than if only one option was offered. In a study of 1,000 ethnically and racially diverse people, the lowest percentage had a colonoscopy when that was the only test offered. More completed fecal occult blood testing if it was the single choice. Overall 65 percent of the 1,000 patients studied were screened after their doctor recommended testing.
Experts Recommend Changes for Colorectal Screening Access and Quality
The first priority of an expert panel looking at increasing the number of people being screened for colorectal cancer was to "Eliminate financial barriers to colorectal cancer screening and appropriate follow up." Meeting for two days in Washington in February, a National Institutes of Health State-of-the-Science conference considered what is known– and not known– about why people choose or avoid screening, how to improve screening quality, and what the healthcare capacity is to deliver colorectal cancer screening to the US population. At the end of the meeting, the panel released a consensus statement with their recommendations for enhancing the use and quality of colorectal cancer screening.

Two top 10 teams were upset this week, and to the surprise of few, they were Southern Cal and Georgia.
Marion Bloch, the philanthropist, pillar in the Kansas City community and wife of Henry Bloch, died Tuesday.
The Jewish Community Relations Bureau confirmed her death, saying the 83-year-old passed away peacefully.
"Marion's devotion to her husband Henry as well as her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren will forever influence them and future generations. Family always came first for Marion," the release said.
She graduated from Southwest High School in Kansas City and the University of Missouri. Her older brother set her up on a date with his close friend, a budding entrepreneur named Henry Bloch.
While he ran H&R Block, which he founded with his brother, Marion Bloch ran her household.
"In an extraordinary family, she was an extraordinary woman. It is a tremendous family, and she was at the center of it. She and Henry had a relationship like no other. They are just really a loving, caring family, and the connection between she and Henry was extraordinary," said Marion Bloch's rabbi, Alan Londy, with the New Reformed Temple.
The couple's personal philanthropic legacy includes generous support of arts institutions and particularly The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. Future generations can enjoy their collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist paintings.
In 2007, the museum's new Bloch Building was ranked No. 1 by Time magazine on its list of the 10 best architectural marvels in the world.
Marion Bloch began battling brain cancer at the age of 58. In the last few years her health worsened as a result of the long-term effects of radiation that was required to treat the cancer, according to the release from the Jewish Community Relations Bureau.
"It is a tremendous loss to the community. She was a very vibrant force and partner with Henry in all of the wonderful things the family has done for the family and for the world," Londy said.
Londy said even though he is new to Kansas City, only being their rabbi for two-and-a-half years, the family, and Marion Bloch in particular, made a tremendous impression on him.
"They're quite a giving family, to each other, and to the world. They've been dedicated to the community in so many ways, but the personal relationship Henry and Marion had was also incredibly sweet and close," he said. "The family is deeply saddened by her passing."
Marion Bloch will be forever remembered by Henry Bloch, her husband of 62 years, and their devoted children: Robert Bloch (Barbara), Thomas Bloch (Mary), Mary Jo Brown (Robert), and Elizabeth Uhlmann (Paul). She also leaves behind 12 loving grandchildren: Brian Bloch (Allison), Nicholas Bloch, Chase Bloch, Benjamin Bloch, Lynne Greenstein (Andrew), Timothy Brown (Rebecca), Allison Gershon (Brad), Jason Bloch, Edward Bloch, Lauren Blazar (Aaron), Emily Fehsenfeld (Wesley) and James Uhlmann. The couple treasured their seven beloved great-grandchildren: Zachary and Charles Greenstein, Henry and Arthur Brown, Macy Bloch, Thomas Gershon and Sophie Blazer.
The funeral will be a private service for the immediate family only.
The public is invited to attend a memorial service at the Atkins Auditorium in the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art on Monday, Sept. 30 at 2 p.m.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, 4525 Oak St., Kansas City, MO, 64111 or St. Luke's Hospital Foundation, 4225 Baltimore Ave., Kansas City, MO, 64111.

A Big Weekend For Runners And Walkers
By: Elana R. Golub
Published: 08/10/12
This weekend, a desire to compete across a seven-mile course will cause Falmouth's population to skyrocket due to the thousands of runners and spectators arriving for the 40th anniversary of the New Balance Falmouth Road Race.
This year's new race director, David McGillivray, longtime Boston Marathon director and organizer, was brought in from a national search to direct the race.
"It's difficult to come into such a complicated system," said Matt G. Auger, last year's race director and this year's assistant race director. "Dave was able to master it and not just continue, but exceed the level of excellence from previous years."
The race drew the highest numbers of applicants this year in honor of the race's 40th anniversary, forcing them to reject about 4,500 people through their lottery system. "Anniversary years are always more popular," said Mr. Auger. "We've registered 12,800 runners to compete in the race this year."
The weekend's events have already begun, kicking off with the runners' expo, which opened yesterday at the Robert Antonucci Field House at Falmouth High School. The expo will continue today from 10 AM to 9 PM and tomorrow from 9 AM to 6 PM. Admission is free and open to the public. Runners can pick up their numbers at the expo while other Falmouth residents and visitors can enjoy the exhibitions. Runners may not pick up their numbers on race day.
"This year's expo is going to be our biggest one yet," said Mr. Auger. "We have over 56 exhibitors, ranging from local sponsors, such as the Falmouth Chamber of Commerce, to international ones, such as New Balance."
Tomorrow's events begin with the 22nd annual independently sponsored 3.2-mile walk, beginning in Town Hall Square, traveling down Walker street, Shore Street, Clinton Avenue, and Scranton Avenue before returning to Main Street once again for the finish. Registration costs $20 and will be held tonight from 4:30 to 7:30 PM at the Quarterdeck Restaurant as well as tomorrow morning between 9 AM and the race's start at 10 AM.
There will be a raffle and an auction following the walk. All proceeds benefit local charities, some of which include Around the Table meals program, the Falmouth Military Support Group, Haven for Healing, Ellen T. Mitchell Scholarship Fund, and the Falmouth Service Center.
Tomorrow at 3:30 PM, Savings Bank Life Insurance Company of Massachusetts and Falmouth Recreation Department will be holding their annual SBLI Falmouth Recreation Family Fun Run for children ages 2 to 14 at the James Kalperis track at Falmouth High School. Registration for the event begins an hour before the races start. The registration is free but required for all participants.
The event is comprised of multiple races of varied distances; children ages 5 and younger will compete in a 100-yard dash, 6- and 7-year-olds will race 200 meters, 8- and 9-year-olds will race 400 meters, 10- and 11-year-olds will race 800 meters, and the 12-,13-, and 14-year-olds will finish the races with a one-mile long competition.
On the same track at 6 PM tomorrow will be the 17th annual mile race. Twenty elite men and women runners, including a few who had competed in the Olympic trials, will contest for a $2,000 prize.
Proceeding the elite mile will be two other mile races, one for all of the wheelchair competitors registered for Sunday's race. "We decided to bring this event back because of such a positive response to last year's miles," said Mr. Auger.
"It's another opportunity for the public to see some amazing athletes."
The third race will be a high school mile, sponsored for the first time by the family of Tommy Cochary. The competitors for this event were chosen from around the country, based on individual performance in state competitions, and will feature Ella Martin and Lauren O'Neil of Falmouth. The prize for these young athletes is a grant in the memory of Tommy Cochary for them to bring back to their school to encourage wellness among students and encourage them to make good choices.
The John Wesley United Methodist Church of Gifford Street will hold its 13th annual spaghetti dinner between 5 and 7 PM tomorrow, serving spaghetti with various sauces, beverages, salad, bread, and desserts. The proceeds from the suggested $7 donation will benefit Mashpee's "Heroes in Transition."


text: Considered by many to be cinema's most colossally bizarro achievement. First you'll notice the odd cast: Shelley Winters, Mel Ferrer, Glenn Ford, plus legendary directors John Huston and Sam Peckinpah! Then the plot: An 8-year-old girl with telekinetic powers becomes the prize in a fight between God and the Devil. But the campy horror flick gets really ambitious when we learn she's carrying an inter-spacial force, whose main mission is to convince her mother to bear a male child with whom she will mate. The world wasn't ready for "The Visitor" in 1979, and it still may not be!

The IRAM Plateau de Bure mm interferometer and deep K-band imaging have been used to identify the brightest submm source detected in the Lockman field of the UK 8 mJy SCUBA survey. The near infrared counterpart is an extended (20-30 kpc), clumpy, and extremely red object. The spectral energy distribution suggests it to be a dusty star forming object at a redshift of about 3 (2-4). Its star formation rate and near-infrared properties are consistent with Lockman 850.1 being a massive elliptical in formation. Based on Observations carried out with the IRAM Plateau de Bure Interferometer. IRAM is supported by INSU/CNRS (France), MPG (Germany) and ING (Spain).

The SUV University of North Carolina basketball player P.J. Hairston was driving when arrested June 5 had been rented by a Durham man with multiple convictions, according to police reports.
WNCN obtained a copy of the rental agreement, which confirms the Yukon was rented by Haydn Thomas. Thomas told USA Today earlier this week he had rented the car but was not connected to Hairston and was not a UNC booster.
The SUV was rented from Hertz from June 2-5 and cost $1,261.64.
North Carolina Department of Public Safety records show Thomas had been convicted four times.
Thomas faced felony and various misdemeanor charges, including drug charges in 2002 and 2005 and carrying a concealed weapon in 2002.
Thomas, 39, told USA Today he rented the vehicle for himself and that Miykael Faulcon, a friend, borrowed it. Thomas told USA Today he did not know Hairston but knew Faulcon from "partying at clubs."
Hairston, a 6-foot-5 guard from Greensboro, led the Tar Heels in scoring last season, at 14.6 points per game as a sophomore.
Hairston started Carolina's final 13 games and was a key to the Tar Heels' late-season turnaround.

TORONTO – Randy Carlyle wasn't ready to use the word as it related to the status of injured Leafs winger Joffrey Lupul.
"No that's a bad word," he said following practice on Friday. "The term concussion in today's sporting world, you want to make sure you're 100 percent sure before you start using that word."
Lupul will nonetheless miss the Leafs next game in New Jersey on Saturday, sitting out with a worrisome and to this point, undefined "day-to-day" injury. Sandwiched between the Flyers rough combination of Adam Hall and Jay Rosehill on Thursday evening, Lupul took consecutive shots to the head area, wobbling to the bench before leaving the game entirely.
The 29-year-old underwent an evaluation following the eventual 5-3 loss and claimed, according to Carlyle, to have felt "fine". He went for another examination on Friday morning and was ruled out of Saturday's action against the Devils.
"Obviously everybody saw the hit," said Carlyle. "He got squeezed out, he got dazed, and didn't feel very good so we just said we were going to send him for examination [on Friday] morning."
Stung by a string of unfortunate luck in the past year, Lupul was performing at previously unprecedented levels before this most recent injury, storming back from a 25-game absence in mid-March – arm injury – with a scorching tally of eight goals and 13 points. He had scored at least once in each of the six games before enduring the collision on Thursday.
"I don't know if you can put any more than an exclamation mark," Carlyle noted of Lupul's superb performance.
While the timeline and exact nature of the injury remains uncertain to this point, Lupul's absence for any length of time brings with it an emotional jolt to the hockey club, a loss of an elite talent and on-ice leader at a key point in the season. His presence alongside leading scorer Nazem Kadri offered the Leafs a tantalizing "one-two punch", a second potentially fearsome unit of firepower in addition to the top line of Phil Kessel, Tyler Bozak, and James van Riemsdyk.
Still, they have managed in his absence previously, stringing together a sturdy 13-11-1 mark when he was sidelined for nearly two months with a fractured right forearm earlier this season. Much in line with their balanced production then, they'll need increased performance from a variety of sources while he is out.
"[Lupul] is an important piece to this puzzle," said Kadri, who leads the team with 39 points. "And definitely for us too, we've had some chemistry and that's going to be missed... [but] we've found a way for other guys to step up and take initiative and really get the job done."
"He's an impact player for us, there's no way to mask it," Carlyle added. "Right now, we have to have other people share in the responsibility that he's been shoring up for us. We need Matt Frattin to get going. JVR scores [Thursday] night, a big-time goal. It was his best game for our hockey club, statistics-wise, in the number of plays he was in on offensively so we need that to continue."
Additionally, the likes of Clarke MacArthur, likely to return from injury against the Devils, and Mikhail Grabovski, who has two goals and five points in the past 15 games, will need to emerge if Lupul is to miss any extended time. van Riemsdyk snapped a 10-game goal drought with his 15th marker against the Flyers while Frattin is still without a goal in the 11 games he's played upon his return from a knee injury.
Currently the sixth seed in the Eastern Conference, the Leafs sit five points up on the ninth-seeded Devils with 11 games to go. While they remain in firm position for their first playoff berth in nine years – following an eight-game point streak which ended in the loss to Philadelphia – they'll need to continue stringing points together to ensure their position.
Lupul, meanwhile, remains a source of puzzling luck. He has missed 41 of the past 51 games for his club dating back to last season with injuries that range from a separated shoulder to this most recent injury. Of concern, he does have a previous, albeit not extensive, history with concussions.
"We don't know what it is," Carlyle concluded, refraining from the concussion label. "Until you know exactly what it is, I don't think you should make any statements right now."

Tim Burton and super hunk Johnny Depp will finally begin filming the big screen version of "Dark Shadows" this April. For those of you not familiar with the original TV show it's kind of like "Soup" but not funny, with vampires and a lot of English accents. Of course I learned all this from a TV commercial selling the entire series on DVD so I could be off.
I've yet to figure out what a producer actually does but John Carpenter is apparently set to be the executive producer on Dennison Ramalho's new film "The Hell Within". Apparently the entire movie will be shot in Brazil so I'm starting to think old John John is just looking for a vacation.
What's next up on the remake list? "Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things", the 1973 zombie flick which I'm 99% sure was shot on someone's home camera. Did they have home cameras back then? I have no clue, maybe that's a really good thing for back then. What a strange and wondrous world it must of been back in the 70's.
Oh boy, who's as excited as me for the second episode of "The Walking Dead"? No one, that's the answer, no one could possibly be as excited as I am. Anyway here's a sneak peek at the second episode, don't even try to pretend that you wet yourself like I did. That's Joe's thing!
Too far America, too far! San Francisco has apparently passed a low making it illegal to include free toys with unhealthy meals. Meaning the McDonald's Happy Meal is a no-no for kids anymore. You win the world series and all of a sudden you think you can play god. I know I know, it's a long shot making a sports joke on a horror website.
Yes, yes and yes. I want this. It's the world's largest coffee, holding a stunning 2,010 gallons of the good stuff put together together by the people at GourmetGiftBaskets.com. I hope it's black, I only drink mine black. Only hippies use cream and sugar.
2009 - A shooting rampage at the Fort Hood Army post in Texas left 13 people dead; Maj. Nidal Hasan, an Army psychiatrist, was charged in the worst mass killing on a U.S. military base
Hey guys, Louis Fowler here, live from Comic-Con '09! And, by Comic-Con '09, I mean my office in my underwear. Crap...I just dropped Toaster Strudel on my chest. The jelly is getting all mingled in my lush chest-hair. This wouldn't happen if I was wearing my homemade Flash costume...
Forest Whitaker and 50 Cent will play "intense" dueling personalities in the umpteenth retelling of "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde", according to MTV. This makes me a bit mad because they both turned down my cop movie "Lazy Eye and Mumble Mouth: NYPD" to do it.
After he's done with "Alice in CGI-land", Tim Burton's next movie will be a remake/retelling/reimagining of the 1960s cult vampire soap opera "Dark Shadows". Let's place bets now that Johnny Depp is in it. Is it just me or is Tim Burton out of ideas? When he's not destroying the Ozone Layer applying copious amounts of Aquanet to his Robert Smith-like coif, I think that he's too busy rolling around naked in piles of money made off the fleshy backs of 30-year-old women who's wardrobe mainly consists of "Nightmare Before Christmas" hoodies to come up with anything original ever again. Seriously ladies, it's called TJ Maxx. Get yourself a nice pantsuit, on me.
Swarthy homunculus Danny DeVito, taking a break from banging that hot piece of ass known as Rhea Perlman, has started an original horror film website called "The Blood Factory". Danny DeVito? Are they "short" films? Hahahahahaha...oh, wait, they are. I give the website a year, but, then again, that's what I said about Ted Danson's "Becker", and that lasted at least three years, two of them HILARIOUS.
I don't know why it hasn't been pimped here, but how about you do yourself a favor and download "Who Wants a Tortilla?", a joint project between BGH and Night of the Living Podcast, starring me and Chiz, and filmed at last spring's HorrorHound Weekend! We make Tom Savini uncomfortable!
In the past ten days, $10.2 billion dollars worth of marijuana have been confiscated in Fresno, California. When I asked my pot-smoking neighbor Chad "Kind Bud" Budderson for comment, he said: "Hey man, this is like, bullshit! Man, did you know that, like, President Obama has his own private field of weed, just like Kennedy and Thomas Jefferson, man? People gotta tell City Hall that, you know, you can make rope and glaucoma out of weed, bro! War on drugs, let's make it a war on shwag! Hahahahahaha...dude! Do you ever stop to think about...the universe?"
Gidget, the beloved illegal immigrant chihuahua who won America's hearts through her "Yo Quiero Taco Bell" ad, passed away at the ripe old age of 13 this week. And who had to pay for her medical care? The American Taxpayer, I'm sure!
Speaking of lovable chihuahuas, who doesn't want a five-legged one? We all would—that little vestigial leg is just more to love! The adorable puppy, named Lily, was rescued from a freak show on Coney Island at a cost of $4000. The fifth leg, located in the puppy's butt, made it impossible for Lily to sit, lay down or really even walk, but I would be two busy hugging and kissing her little nose to notice. Luckily, the new owners did notice and had the leg surgically removed, to the tune of $2000. I LOVE YOU 5-LEGGED PUPPY!
So for the past month or so we've been seeing more and more images coming out for Tim Burton's "Alice In Wonderland". Well not we've got the first official teaser trailer for the film which is currently set for a March 5th, 2010 release.
"The Gate 3D" has secured $1.9 million and will begin shooting in Germany shortly, under the direction of Alex Winter. Winter starred in "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure" in the 80's, and also directed the 1993 cult classic "Freaked".
All three "Wrong Turn" films will be coming to Bluray this fall.
Vanity Fair has a few, slightly new pics from "Alice in Wonderland", directed by Tim Burton and starring Helena Bohnam Carter, Johnny Depp and Anne Hathaway.
Darren Lynn Bousman lines up comic adaptation for after he's finished shooting the "Mother's Day" remake.
Naked man arrested for running into an arcade on the California/Nevada state line... says he took some LSD and thought he was "the Terminator". Awesome.
This is what happens when internet fights turn into real life fights complete with ear-biting. Just let it go people, let it go.
Gay lumberjacks protest teabaggers. Easily the best headline this week.
1665: King Charles II and his entourage flee London, a city suffering the ravages of the black plague. At this point, about 2,000 Londoners are dying weekly.
Depp says Burton will be tackling his adaptation of "Dark Shadows" immediately after they finish up "Alice". No one seems to be asking if there's even potential in a remake of the cheesy TV vampire soap. Right now I'm more interested to see how his "Alice in Wonderland" adaptation goes.
I get it, poster for the festival hit "Dead Girl", lips look like vaginas. Actually, ya, that's a pretty sweet poster.
M. Night Shyamalan now has his very own official site. It stars M. Night Shyamalan in an M. Night Shyamalan produced project, where M. Night Shyamalan plays the most important person in the world who is meant to save us all by saying profound things in really childish and oversimplified ways. Sounds awesome, no?
Naked thief snatches food from drive-thru window and runs away with his prize. If you're having a tough day, that mental image is guaranteed to make you laugh.
This is the look of a man who just stabbed someone, and is awfully happy with himself. It's also the satisfied look of a Floridian. Coincidentally, pretty similar.
Poland's UFO files have been stolen. At the link, an interview with the guy who probably should have done something about it. (Good read though for conspiracy theorists like myself)
1374: In a sudden outbreak of Dancing Mania (aka "St. John's Dance"), people in the streets of Aix-la-Chapelle experience terrible hallucinations and begin to jump and twitch uncontrollably until they collapse from exhaustion. Many of the sufferers are afflicted with frothing at the mouth, diabolical screaming, and sexual frenzy. The phenomenon lasts well into the month of July. Nowadays, ergot madness is suspected as being the ultimate cause of the disorder.
Even if you hadn't heard about the movie previously, would you really blink if I told you that Tim Burton is directing a re-imagination of "Alice in Wonderland" with Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter in starring roles? Of course you wouldn't. Although many people are getting sick of Burton's creepy power couple, it seems that he's got a couple of tricks up his sleeve to keep things fresh, mainly using CGI to augment and distort live action, a technique which has come into use recently with action films, but hasn't been stretched (no pun intended) to this level before.

A movie that has the crew conflicted.

The Trail Blazers were one of "many teams" who were disappointed with Connecticut SG Jeremy Lamb's pre-draft workouts. Lamb acknowledged that teams want to see his "motor" and whether he can stand up to NBA contact, and he didn't help himself by failing to shoot well during drills. Another strike against him for Portland came during a media interview -- when asked whether he knew "anything about" the Blazers, he struggled to name LaMarcus Aldridge, then said he knew of "the light-skinned dude," who turned out to be Nicolas Batum.
