NORTH KINGSTOWN – It might be hard to imagine but the 10th anniversary of the September 11th terrorist attacks is a little over a month away.
Now, for the first time, North Kingstown will represent Rhode Island in hosting one of the nation's most well-known memorial events.
Special to the Standard
SAUNDERSTOWN – Graham Gardner confesses that before he received an invitation to present an original design at the prestigious Newport Flower Show, he'd been flying under the radar.
Very far.
A one-man operation, he typically has a dozen clients with ongoing design projects he's preparing and fine-tuning.
"I had no real name before then," he says. "When the flower show called and I realized they were going to do PR, I had to choose something."
NARRAGANSETT—On Monday evening, the town council approved a motion to adopt parking changes in the Scarborough Hills area of Narragansett. Residents have expressed frustration with the oft-occurring disturbances that tourists cause by parking in the streets of the Scarborough Hills area.
CHARLESTOWN - The earliest recorded history of people living in southern Rhode Island dates back hundreds of years. Before the Civil and Revolutionary wars, before Roger Williams helped lay the foundation of this state, and before the first European explores ever set sail into the Narragansett Bay, there were indigenous American people.
By MARTHA SMITH
Special to the Standard
NORTH KINGSTOWN – The 1973 three-quarter ton Chevy P-20 truck is just the same as when it rolled off the assembly line. It has 357,000 miles and only two people have owned it.
Of course, none of this matters to the legions who clamor at the side window when the van rolls up playing the theme from "The Entertainer." From the smallest toddler to the giddiest bride to the most dedicated construction worker, they all share one thing in common.
Ice cream.
This is Jack's Ice Cream truck, a musical purveyor of summertime happiness.
As of 8:30 a.m. Friday morning, the South Kingstown School Committee and NEASK have reached a tentative agreement on a school contract.
The two negotiating teams met Thursday evening at 5 p.m. at Broad Rock Middle School and continued negotiations into the night. Details of the tentative agreement is currently confidential, however.
The union general membership will meet Aug. 11 to review the tentative agreement. The school committee will meet Aug. 16 during its regularly scheduled meeting to review the agreement as well.
NARRAGANSETT—Visitors to Narragansett Town Beach had something of a false alarm on Wednesday when a shark sighting was reported to the lifeguards at South Beach Pavilion. Lifeguards shut down the beach for about an hour in order to make sure that all of the beachgoers were safe, and no further shark sighting was reported.
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Chariho High School sophomore Paige Pajarillo, 15, engages in many activities that are common for girls her age, such as reading, playing sports and spending time with her friends. However, she got the chance to do something last week that very few high school girls can say they have.
NORTH KINGSTOWN – The Fishing Cove Elementary School playground will soon be accessible to handicapped children, the result of a directive from the Rhode Island Governors Commission on Disabilities.
Lisa Windham lodged a complaint on behalf of her daughter, Laura, 7, who suffers from spastic paraplegia, a neuromuscular disease. The child uses a walker and could not reach the equipment because the playground had a mulch surface.
SOUTH KINGSTOWN – At Tuesday night's meeting between the school committee and union, the two parties discussed how to fill the $755,000 school deficient. This meeting was one of the four mediation meetings scheduled in August with mediator John Harrington.

I have bumped into many problems while getting acquainted with Joomla so I have collected these 10 most popular Joomla FAQs with the hope that you - Joomla newbies - will learn it faster and easier.
Here they are:
1. What is the difference between a template and an extension?
2. Should I use Joomla 1.5/1.7 to build my website?
3. If I switch to use another Joomla template, will the current information be lost?
4. How to edit Joomla templates?
5. How to place an internal link into an article?
6. How to remove article directories?
7. How to get videos to play on my Joomla website?
8. How to remove or change the "Welcome to the FrontPage" title?
9. Where to get Joomla templates and Joomla extensions?
10. Which books do I need to learn more about Joomla?
If you are interested in them, let's get more details:
I am completely new to Joomla and I don't know how to distinguish a template and an extension.
Go to the official page of Joomla Documentation to get the most comprehensive answer:
Source: http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=619&t=664803&p=2641277&e=2641277
Currently, there are 2 versions of Joomla - Joomla 1.5 and Joomla 1.7. That confuses me: Which Joomla versions should I use to build my website?
In my opinion, you should try out Joomla 1.7 for the following reasons:
However, if your favorite extensions still support Joomla 1.5 only (VirtueMart for example), you should consider this carefully - stick with Joomla 1.5 or switch to similar extensions that support Joomla 1.7.
Source: http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?p=2483982
I used a template to build a website. Now I want to change to another template. Do I need to rebuild my website from the scratch again?
No and Yes.
Source: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20110808021706AATzHmw
I like a template. But I still want to make some changes such as the color of the background and menus. Is it possible?
Normally, the answer is yes. You can configure them in the backend parameters or CCS files.
I know how to link to a page outside of my website (an external link). But I don't know how to link to another page in my website (an internal link). How to do it?
Let's consider that in the article A, you need to link to article B. Both article A and B are in your website.
Source: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4072704/internal-article-links-in-joomla
I don't want sub-article directories to be displayed. How can I remove that?
You go to "Menu Manager" -> "Your menu" -> The article you want to get rid of it -> Tab "Page Display Option" -> You set the parameter "Show Page Heading" as No.
I want to insert a Youtube video into my website. Is it possible?
There are 2 ways to stream a Youtube video on your website:
There is the "Welcome to the FrontPage" title on my website. How to remove or change that?

Have the questions above resolved your Joomla problems yet? If not, please feel free to leave comments. It is our pleasure to assist you to discover the Joomla world.
Hi huyennt!
I think it's a good idea. It is surely very helpful, not only for newbies.
One thing that could be added to point 3 is that some of your menu's and other modules might seem to disappear when you change your template.
A lot of templates have different names for their module positions, so you should remember to change all of the affected module positions and your site will be perfect again
- Vincent from Joomversity

Consumer prices in 1999
January 18, 2000
For the 12 month period ended in December, the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) rose 2.7 percent. This compares with an increase of 1.6 percent for all of 1998.
[Chart data—TXT]
The acceleration in 1999 reflects an upturn in petroleum-based energy prices. The energy index, which declined 8.8 percent in 1998, increased 13.4 percent in 1999. Following a 15.1 percent decline in 1998, petroleum-based energy costs increased 29.5 percent in 1999, its largest annual advance since a 35.4 percent increase in 1990
The CPI-U excluding food and energy advanced 1.9 percent in 1999. This rise was the smallest annual change in the index for all items less food and energy since a 1.5 percent increase in 1965.
These data are a product of the BLS Consumer Price Index program. Find out more in Consumer Price Indexes, December 1999, news release USDL 00-12. Annual percent changes are December to December.

Catholics in Argentina, and locally, are cheering with the selection of the new pope, Jorge Bergoglio of Argentina.
14 News was there soon after Bishop Charles Thompson of the Evansville Diocese learned who the new pope would be.
Bishop Thompson spoke about the significance of the pope's chosen name, Pope Francis.
He says the cardinals were voting on a person they hoped had lead "a life of holiness," had a "true concerned care for the poor," and was a missionary. He says all those things are attributed to the name Francis.
He also spoke of the importance of a pope being chosen from Latin America.
"The growth of our Catholic population worldwide has been in South America, Asia, Africa, and to have a pope come from any of those three areas, I think again, is just broadening our own reflection and proclaiming of our universality of our church," Bishop Thompson said.
There will be masses in the name of the pope, and of course, during daily mass there is always an acknowledgment for the current pope. Priests will insert Pope Francis I's name into that slot and pray for him daily as well.
14 News also spoke with Owensboro Bishop William Medley about the cardinals vote and what he knows about the new pope.
Bishop Medley says he has seen the election of five popes in his life time and was surprised a decision came so quick.
Bishop Medley says Wednesday is an historic day.
"Well, any election of a pope is big for the church, but the fact that we have a pope that was not born and raised and nurtured the European continent is immense," Bishop Medley said.

A couple of weeks ago I asked you all to email me golf questions. I will share the most common question and will respond to the others individually. I think it was a worthwhile experiment. However, you shouldn't be surprised that the most common question was how to stop hitting big banana slices.
In previous articles I mentioned that slices and pulls are really the same swing. The only difference is the face is closed at impact for a pull and open for a slice.
First, let's make sure we all understand what's happening. When you slice the ball or pull the ball, you're swinging across the ball with an outside-to-in swing path. I think most people do understand this, but can't stop doing it.
Next, let's determine why you're swinging across the ball. I suspect that since the backswing is initiated by the upper body and it should be, your natural tendency is to do the same for the down swing. Therein lies the problem. You are starting the down swing with the upper body. I believe this is why the golf swing is so difficult to master. You must transition (smoothly) from an upper body backswing to a lower body motion that allows the upper body, arms, hands, and club to follow the unwinding lower body. However, this lower body motion must allow the club to follow the same path back to the ball, from which it started.
If you're serious about this, go to the store and buy glow in the dark tape. Find a place to swing and lay down two strips of tape about 5 feet long, just like a set of train tracks. One is for your target line and the other is for your feet. Put a piece of that tape on the top of your driver in the center of the club. You also want to place a piece of tape over the target line, to form a + sign where the ball would normally be in your stance. Shut off the lights and swing. You will see the path you are swinging on. However, you may not see what the face of the club is doing. Ideally the club should go back along the target line momentarily as it moves to the inside and to the top of the swing. On the way down it should do exactly the same thing but in reverse. After impact, the club should move back to the inside and to the completion of the swing. I hope this is helpful.
Mulligan's Corner: If you haven't played Turnbull Bay Golf Club you should check it out. They didn't over seed over the winter, so they are green and immaculate. Plus, they have a special for the month of May. For $20, tax included, you get 18 holes with a cart. For 9 holes it's only $13.50. Call Turnbull for a tee time at (386) 427-8727.

After a while, the three emerged, toting a toy guitar, a real guitar — just the right size to serve as a stand-up bass for a 7-year-old — and a ukulele, with a song to perform. Courtesy of our daughter's camera, we were able to enjoy the show.
What we heard was a performance of an old Sunday School song, "Jesus Loves the Little Children," beginning with an andante sing-through, delivered a cappella, in spite of what appeared to be spirited strumming on the instruments. On the second run-through, they upped the tempo to allegro, a bit too fast for such young tongues, especially since there was a little giggling when energetic singing popped a tiara off a head. Then came a nice ritard to largo on the last line, after which they received a round of applause.
After watching the video several times, I wondered how the kids, all of whom are of Asian or Eurasian descent, related to the song's declaration that "red or yellow, black or white, they are precious in his sight." My daughter had evidently talked about that with Mattea who, after considering her skin, declared that it was not yellow, but the color of sand. Even though she doesn't fit into the four traditional color schemes, she firmly believes Jesus loves her.
In her 5-year-old wisdom, she believes we are all alike to God.
Over the weekend, thanks to the magic of Skype, we again visited with Mattea and her little brother Arun, and saw their cousins Linnaea and Cormac as well, listening to their accounts of school and laughing at their little minds' perceptions of the world. Linnaea and Cormac have just moved to Haiti, and are busy making friends in a new school and adjusting to a new routine, which for Linnaea, will include French lessons. Mattea is closing in on a reading goal at school and, as a brand new Daisy Scout, is looking forward to selling cookies in a couple of months, while her brother is busy mastering a game on an iPad, and, from all accounts, enjoying popularity with the young ladies at day care.
In other words, they are just being kids.
But a shadow hung over the calls. The atrocity in Connecticut last week never came up as we visited, but the reports of that event lurked in the back of my mind during both conversations.
Both of our granddaughters began kindergarten this year, and Mattea's cousin Kana is in the first grade, exactly the age of the innocent children one twisted mind chose to massacre for reasons that will probably never be known, let alone understood. None of our grandchildren live within 1,000 miles of the site of the murders, but it doesn't take much imagination to think that they could be the next victims, and to feel the pain of those who lost children in Connecticut.
Still, one can't dwell on the possibility of a mad killer invading your child's school. Despite the publicity surrounding this and similar crimes in shopping malls, political rallies and even houses of worship in recent years, children are much more likely to be killed at home or in automobiles than in school. Protecting our children is much more complicated than locking more doors, arming more people or passing restrictive gun laws. Evil will always find a way into our lives despite our best efforts to stop it.
Still, I firmly believe in the truth of the song that I watched three little kids sing, that Jesus does love all the little children. But the Sunday School song also contains an implicit mandate: each of us must love all the children of the world as well, even though we are all the color of sand, and don't fit neatly into the boxes — red, yellow, black, white — that we are assigned.
Our failure to meet that mandate—and I personally have failed it many times in my life — is the root cause of incidents such we saw last week.
I don't know if the trio I heard sing last week has a musical future, but they do have the right to a future of some kind. So did 20 other kids who were robbed of that future last week, kids just like my grandchildren
As a free people, we have to do a better job of protecting that right.

Frankie Valli is a national treasure, and he is on tour once again with a new group of "Four Seasons." Coming to fame in 1962, he is still going strong, having toured almost continuously since then. Valli will be forever remembered as the man who brought us such memorable songs as "December, 1963 (Oh What a Night)," "Walk Like a Man," "Big Man in Town," and, of course, "Sherry." These songs have been woven into the fabric of American music, and many artists over the years have been influenced by them. Valli's songs have even been featured in such films as "The Deer Hunter" and "Dirty Dancing."
Perhaps the biggest indication of the power of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons is the amazing success of the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical Jersey Boys, based on the stories of the band and its members. The show still plays to packed theaters, 6 years after its 2005 opening. Patrons of all ages enjoy the classic sound of the band's hit singles performed in a spectacular Broadway setting.

Capitol View Commentary: Friday, May 28, 2010
By Pat Nolan, Senior Vice-President, DVL Public Relations & Advertising
May 28, 2010
Remember when they were promising to finish their business and leave town as early as April?
Now it appears the Tennessee General Assembly could go well into June before they approve a state budget and adjourn for the year (sine die).
The financial battle, now in a stalemate, involves primarily a fish tale, that won't allow anyone to get away. There are also some side controversies involving slashing programs to save premature babies, flood relief efforts, bonuses for state workers versus buyouts for those about to be laid-off, and, of course, a large helping of gubernatorial and state legislative election politics.
The fish tale revolves around $17 million to build a fish hatchery in House Speaker Kent Williams' district in Upper East Tennessee. Already some $800,000 has been spent on the plan with the rest of the monies to be employed if federal funds become available. "Fish is the new pork," says the watchdog research group the Tennessee Center for Policy Research, adding that the 22 jobs to be created will cost about $768,000 per new position. Oink!
But Democrats and some House Republicans want to keep the project. They wonder if this matter is being singled out as "revenge" against Williams who crossed party lines to get elected Speaker by Democrats last year. Of course, that's denied by Republicans. But being opposed to the project for public policy reasons and "sticking it to the man" in this case, don't have to be mutually exclusive, do they?
Democrats criticize the Republican budget coming out the State Senate because it deletes a pilot program that is helping to save the lives of premature babies, and, of course, that very quickly gets into charges of hypocrisy for lawmakers who always talk about being "pro-life."
Flood relief efforts are also creating issues. While folks need help, is it setting a precedent to provide state funds for flood victims when it hasn't happened in the past?
What's best for state workers is also a fight. Should there be a small, one-time bonus for workers who haven't had a raise in several years? Or does it make sense to give bonuses when some employees are being laid off? Should funds instead be put together for buyout plans?
Not surprisingly, gubernatorial politics are getting involved, as Lt. Governor and Senate Speaker Ron Ramsey is leading the Republican efforts. Some Democrats and others think Ramsey is particularly trying to cut the fishery project to continue his feud with Speaker Williams. They also say he is trying to make things easy for himself with buyouts during his first year in office (if he wins). Ramsey denies all that, of course, and says he is just doing his job.
You'd think all these folks would love to cut a deal (the overall amount of money in dispute is a very small amount of the overall budget) so they can go home and start running for re-election with the party primaries about two months away. But given the heightened concern about spending at all levels of government, this has become a very sticky situation to easily resolve. Some of these so-called "pork projects" including grants to local museums across the state have been part of the budget for some years and lawmakers have routinely approved them in the past.
As for Lt. Governor Ramsey, whether he intends to or not, he is likely to get much more on-going statewide publicity in regards to this matter, than anything he can get on the campaign trail. And he can wage this battle on behalf of state taxpayers (as he will position it) while his primary opponents can only sit on the sidelines.
But despite all this, if lawmakers can find a way to fish or cut bait on the Fishery (leave the project funding as it has been in the past or delete it) maybe everything can get resolved late in the week (Thursday or Friday June 3-4) and lawmakers can finally go home!
As Nashville and the rest of Middle and West Tennessee continue to recover from the Great Flood of 2010, we are beginning to see some cross-currents develop that are creating controversy and potential difficulties moving ahead.
We've already mentioned the budget dispute here on Capitol Hill here in Nashville with some lawmakers now concerned about setting a precedent to give aid to flood victims when the state has not done that very often, if at all, with past natural disasters.
Meanwhile, I told you another legislative fight would likely be coming on the local level in the wake of the flooding. THE NASHVILLE CITY PAPER (May 28) reports a bill in the Metro Council that will prohibit all new residential development anywhere in the 100-year flood plain. That is bound to create concerns, even opposition, in the development community as well as others in the Council who are concerned what this could cost the city down the road with existing development rights for property already zoned, but not built out, in flood plain areas.
As for those trying to rebuild, Metro Codes is working hard and doing a good job to gear up for those outside the flood plain who need to get building permits. Approximately 5,800 damaged properties are outside the flood plain. Metro usually gives out 10,000 building permits during an entire year. Dealing with 50% of that volume in just the next few weeks means Metro has to be really ready for the onslaught. So Metro has created a way for folks to apply on-line for building permits while the Codes' department phone system has been enhanced and expanded to better handle the flood of requests for codes inspections as the work is done.
But I also noticed in one of Metro's latest news releases that there are 5,000-plus damaged properties in the flood plain. So, it's likely they can't get a building permit until the extent of their damage is assessed which is still some weeks away. And if it's more than 50% destroyed, no permit may ever be issued. So how long will folks be in limbo about their homes and properties? And how soon will Metro begin a buyout program? Who will eligible? What will be the timetable? At what cost? The city has done this kind of work before, but that has been at a volume of a few dozen homes, not thousands. So Metro, this time the Water Services Department, has a lot to work to do to get ready and gear up..
There are other flood relief issues that face flood victims on the federal level. While FEMA and the Small Business Administration have gotten high marks for their efforts so far, EPA may be running into a problem. Starting under the Bush Administration, there have been new rules underway to regulate how lead-based paint is handled.
Lead in paint is an environmental hazard and no one really disputes the need to regulate that. But with this new rule now in effect, it could create real problems and long delays for folks trying to rebuild. Lots of older buildings (constructed before 1978) have lead-based paint, but the implementation of the new rule to mitigate the lead based paint requires contractors to be certified by EPA. There are only three EPA trainers in all of Tennessee. With the hundreds, if not thousands of repair jobs getting underway, it is pretty easy to set the bureaucratic train wreck about to occur.
Both Senators Lamar Alexander and Bob Corker have been urging EPA to grant a waiver here in the state to delay the new rule. But so far, that hasn't happened. That's dumb I think and it is "tone-deaf to reality" says Senator Alexander. The Obama administration needs to get on the stick about this…and so do our Congressmen.
Senator Alexander has already passed an amendment to the supplemental federal assistance bill for flood relief that has passed in the Senate. The amendment prohibits EPA from using any money from this bill to enforce the new lead-based paint rule. Good first step. Now the House needs to do the same….while EPA extends a waiver during this crisis period.
Speaking of the flood relief bill in the Senate, it is interesting to note that our Senators surprisingly split their votes. Senator Alexander voted yes, Senator Corker, no. Why did Senator Corker oppose it? Both Senators tried, but failed, to add amendments to may sure the extra appropriations were paid for by spending cuts or freezes on salary increases. When those went down, Senator Alexander felt it was still more important to vote aye, while Senator Corker decided that our increasing national debt was too important that voting for this bill.
Senator Corker's office quickly issued a news release to explain why he voted. But with his re-election looming just two years from now, I suspect he will have to continue to explain this vote over and over in the months to come leading up to 2012.
I can tell by more than the calendar that the Memorial Day holiday weekend is approaching.
This traditional kickoff for summer also means an increased awareness and interest in the upcoming gubernatorial election with the August primary ahead.
I know it is happening when I get approached by total strangers who see me somewhere and ask…"So who's is ahead in the Governor's race?"
That's an interesting question, especially since I have not seen any kind of professional independent poll on the contest for several weeks now.
Conventional wisdom says Knoxville Mayor Bill Haslam is the front-runner. Without a poll, is that right? Well, it may be correct, based on another important and almost never wrong indicator. Haslam is the candidate who is being attacked from time to time by his opponents. The candidate in front is always the one in the crosshairs. It's almost never the other candidates, unless they perceive to be moving up quickly in the pecking order of the race.
Haslam recently has been attacked (on the same day) about two different family investments involved with projects involving both state and local government by both GOP candidate Zach Wamp and by Democratic candidate (and soon to be nominee) Mike McWherter. That's a pretty strong case for who is the front runner.
This also made me remember recently when WASHINGTON POST staff writer Chris Cillizza took some flack for a comment he made in a (May 24) story (about trends in political dynasties). He said: "in Tennessee, Mike McWherter, son of former governor Ned Ray McWherter, is the likely Democratic gubernatorial nominee, but doesn't have much chance of claiming the state's top office in the fall."
Nobody can prove that this many months out. But I know Cillizza can find plenty of political observers all over the state who would tell him that quietly. Cillizza just printed it. I can understand how the McWherter campaign is most unhappy. But if he has another quarter raising just $100,000 of outside funds, he'll have less than a snow ball chance come November. I also keep hearing from folks, including some Democratic leaders here in deep-blue Nashville who say: "Well, if I have to have a Republican governor, I guess I'll be OK with Haslam." Hmm….isn't that kind of what I heard from some Republicans eight years ago when Phil Bredesen was running as a Democrat for Governor?
It is always interesting to watch endorsements in a race and see how they play out.
That includes a bit of a strange one in recent days that was given to Congressman Wamp by U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood. According to Tom Humphrey of THE KNOXVILLE NEWS SENTINEL LaHood "told a group of Tennessee Valley Corridor business and government leaders gathered in Washington…that the Chattanooga congressman would be a good choice as the state's next governor. "I know I am not supposed to be doing something like this, but I don't know a better person to lead your state than Zach Wamp."
It sounds very nice, especially since Wamp and LaHood are friends from serving together in Congress a few years back. But wait a minute. LaHood is a Republican serving in the Democratic administration of President Barack Obama (can you say RHINO?) and he is clearly from and part of Washington. Wamp doesn't even mention he's a Congressman or mention the word "Washington" in his TV ads. Friendships are great, but the Secretary is right when he says "I'm not supposed to do this", later adding (according to Humphrey's article, "I'm sure I'll get in trouble with somebody saying that. But I love Zach and when you love somebody, you just have to say what you think." Busted
By the way, the Wamp campaign issued a news release about the Tennessee Corridor conference, but it only mentioned that LaHood was one of several speakers. The release focused on how Wamp joined with Volkswagen's CEO during his appearance to see more production jobs coming to Tennessee.
But sometimes campaign endorsements can attempt to be particularly positioned and perhaps strategic. We talked before in this column about how Mayor Bill Haslam has to reassure conservative Republicans that he is not too moderate or a bit of a RHINO (Republican in name only). Witness the recent endorsement of Cyndi Bryant, the wife of former West Tennessee GOP Congressman Ed Bryant. According to an announcement by the Haslam campaign, Bryant is "a longtime pro-life advocate." She returns to the praise to Haslam saying: "He's pro-life, strong on guns, believes the best gift a child can have is a mother and a father, and has the proven record as Mayor of Knoxville of a rock-solid fiscal conservative."
Remember all the GOP gubernatorial candidates are from East Tennessee. So endorsement from other parts of the state might be helpful when Ms. Bryant made his statement during a Haslam event in her husband's old congressional district in Jackson.
Memorial Day weekend is a time to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice to defend our freedom.
It is also a great time to discuss politics.
So our guests this week on a wide variety of topics (the Gulf oil spill, the President's job numbers, the fall elections) are Linda Peek Schacht, Associate Professor at Lipscomb University in the departments of communications, history, politics and philosophy and Dr. Bruce Oppenheimer, political scientist at Vanderbilt University.
It is a fascinating discussion that you can watch several times this weekend of NEWSCHANNEL5 PLUS, Comcast and Charter cable channels 250 as well as NewsChannel5's over-the-air digital channel 5.2.
Our show times are 7:00 p.m. Friday (tonight, May 28), 5:00 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Saturday (May 29) and Sunday, 5:00 a.m. and 12:30 p.m.
Happy Memorial Day!

Rockets 99
(32-31, 12-20 away)
Hornets 105
(20-43, 11-22 home)
Coverage: COX
8:00 PM ET, April 19, 2012
Smoothie King Center, New Orleans, LA
NEW ORLEANS -- Eric Gordon would like to see New Orleans rewarded with some good karma in the NBA's draft lottery.
The Hornets certainly will need it the way they're playing lately, because all this winning isn't helping their chances of landing the top overall pick.
Gordon scored 27 points, Carl Landry had 20 points and 10 rebounds and New Orleans dealt a blow to reeling Houston's playoff hopes with a 105-99 overtime victory on Thursday night, the Rockets' sixth straight loss.
"A lot of people expected us to tank, but you've got to play for the fans and give them something to look forward to next year," said Gordon, whose Hornets have won only 20 games all season but also have seven victories in their past 10 games. "We knew (the Rockets) were still trying to make the playoffs, but the best team won tonight."
Goran Dragic scored 23 points and Chase Budinger tied a season-high with 22 points for Houston (32-31), which dropped one game behind Utah (33-30) for the final playoff spot in the Western Conference with three games left.
"A very tough one for us. We needed this one tonight to hopefully try to get back in the playoffs," Budinger said. "This one definitely hurts everybody, hurts our team and hurts our chances. ... You can never give up. There's definitely still hope for us. You've just got to win out and hope that other teams lose."
Al-Farouq Aminu scored 17 points, Marco Belinelli had 13 points, and Gustavo Ayon had nine points and 10 rebounds for New Orleans, which used a 9-0 run in overtime to take control.
The Rockets took their last lead when Luis Scola scored inside to make it 89-87 with 3:19 to go in the extra period.
Landry responded with an inside basket to tie it, then scored again underneath while being fouled after Ayon found him with a precision pass from the lane.
After Budinger missed a 3-point attempt, Aminu added a short but difficult rainbow jumper. Then Gordon broke up Budinger's pass and got the ball back from Greivis Vasquez for a breakaway dunk that made it 96-89 with 1:32 to go.
Houston could not recover.
"I really don't know what happened," said Scola, who finished with 11 points. "I'm trying to find the answer and I just can't it. ... All of a sudden we started missing shots. We felt the pressure and could not finish the game."
Courtney Lee had 15 points for the Rockets, while Marcus Camby had 14, none in the second half when he was bothered by a sore back. Houston shot 51.2 percent in the first half, when Camby made 7 of 8 shots, including several jumpers that spread out New Orleans' defense. In the second half and overtime, when Camby played less than nine minutes and missed his only two shots, Houston shot 35 percent (21-for-60).
"It's been tough. I've pretty much been playing off adrenaline and the urge to try and get into the playoffs," Camby said. "I'm just trying to give the team everything that I got. I reached my limit today."
Houston trailed most of the fourth quarter but took the lead when Lee drained a transition 3 from the corner and Patrick Patterson added a fast-break layup to make it 83-81 with 2:30 to go.
The Hornets tied it on Landry's putback. The teams then exchanged one-point leads four times. After the Hornets had gone ahead 87-86 on Ayon's jumper, Budinger missed a late 3 for the lead and the rebound fell to Vasquez. Lee sneaked in to steal the ball from behind and was fouled, giving him a chance to put Houston back in front with 15.3 seconds left. He made only one free throw to tie it, however, then Gordon missed a step-back jumper in the final seconds of regulation, forcing the extra session.
After trailing by as many as 13 points in the second quarter, the Hornets pulled to 51-43 by halftime and then surged into the lead when they opened the second half on a 13-4 run. It started with Smith's consecutive jumpers and Gordon later added a 3 and two free throws he set up with a steal, putting New Orleans up 56-55.
Gordon reached the 20-point mark -- for the fifth time in his eight games this season -- in the third quarter, during which the Hornets outscored Houston 26-13. The Rockets made only 6 of 20 shots in the period, after which they trailed 69-64.
"That third quarter was terrible," Houston coach Kevin McHale said disgustedly after one of only three questions he answered before cutting off the postgame interview. "We just need to get ready and play (Saturday night at home against Golden State). This is the NBA. You just need to get it done."
Game notes
The Hornets improved to 6-2 in games Gordon has played. ... New Orleans, which was playing its home finale, won six of its last seven home games. ... The Rockets won the only previous meeting in Houston, also in overtime, and the teams will meet there once more in the final regular-season game for both teams. ... Announced attendance was 18,315, the Hornets' fifth sellout of the season.

NC State fared well in a new set of ratings based on reviews from people who know the university best: employees.
NC State is 10th on a list of best universities to work for compiled by Glassdoor, a jobs website. Scores are based on employee reviews for more than 100 universities, from Arizona State to Yale.
To be included, universities had to have at least 20 reviews submitted within a specified time frame. Employees assigned ratings on a five-point scale, with 1 being very dissatisfied and 5 very satisfied.
The top score of 4.2 went to the University of Kansas. NC State earned a 3.9.
Here's the top 10 list from Glassdoor:
- Kansas
- Iowa State
- Brigham Young
- Georgia
- Brown
- Michigan State
- Massachusetts Institute of Technology
- Cornell
- Pennsylvania
- NC State
Data analysts for Glassdoor found that employee satisfaction was related to benefits, research opportunities and work/life balance. NC State employees praised a variety of facets of university life in their comments, from positive working relationships to campus scenery. Their most common criticism was a lack of employee raises during the economic downturn.
More of the highly rated universities were in the eastern half of the country. Harvard, Yale and Princeton, familiar Ivy league names on traditional best college lists, were absent from the top 10 employee ratings, although Brown, Cornell and the University of Pennsylvania were included.
The biggest universities weren't necessarily the best places to work. The top three universities in student enrollment—Arizona State, Central Florida and Ohio State— finished out of the top 10.

In late February, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) denied a citizen's petition filed some 18 months earlier by OVOS Natural Health Inc. to have homotaurine accepted as a new dietary ingredient (NDI) for use in dietary supplements.
Under the usual guise of protecting the public and the more-honest notion of rationalizing herbal-medicine regulations, the European Union (EU)'s Parliament and Council adopted its Traditional Herbal Medicinal Products Directive (No. 2004/24/EC), or simply the THMPD, in 2004.
Santiago de Chile can be a beautiful place, but one of the first things a visitor notices is that it is a city of stray dogs. They are everywhere. No one abuses them. I've never seen that happen even once during my two, week-long visits here. But, then, I've never seen anyone feed them either. Some are plumpish, but most are lean and hungry. And too many have visible ribcages pushing out against fur.
The Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC) opened its 33rd session on Monday, July 5, at the Centre International de Conferences in Geneva, with a full agenda of food-standard topics to be discussed.

First, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) threw Warning Letters at three companies marketing dietary-supplement drinks in sizes too large and with names too suggestive. A few days later, the FDA's draft Guidance on this same issue was cast upon the world. Confusion now reigns as the magic words on the label seem to have lost their protective powers.
Just prior to its summer recess, the House of Representatives passed the Food Safety Enhancement Act of 2009 (H.R.2749), which had been launched by industry nemesis Representative John Dingell (D-MI) and amended by equally repugnant Representative Henry Waxman (D-CA). This bill replaced other food "safety" bills about which this column reported previously (see "Goon Squad on the March" June 2009).
The United States, like Great Britain, is seeing its food laws come under increasing pressure to harmonize and conform to international standards.

After a three-week delay, the casino ferry owned by gaming giant Genting will begin day trips to Bimini on July 20.
The 1,500-passenger Bimini SuperFast passed U.S. Coast Guard safety requirements Monday night and can start shuttling passengers to Resorts World Bimini from PortMiami, where it has been docked since its initial failure to meet safety requirements.
Issues related to fire safety systems and back-up power systems have been resolved, according to a release issued Tuesday by the U.S. Coast Guard.
"After buying this modern German built cruise ship for $70 million, we spend a further $30 million to bring her to the highest safety standards," Dana Leibovitz, president of Resorts World Bimini, said in a statement. The ship was built in 2001.
The SuperFast will set sail at 9 a.m. Saturday and return to Miami around 7 p.m. Ticket prices start at $49 roundtrip on weekdays and $79 during weekends and holidays.The inaugural 10 p.m.-to-6 a.m. night cruise is slated for early August, according to the company.

Yemeni opposition coalition approves formation of "National Council"
Sunday, Jul 17,2011, 3:26:58 PM
Sources in the Yemeni opposition revealed yesterday to Al-Bayan that the Joint Meeting Parties [JMP] approved the formation of a "National Council," which embraces all political parties, instead of the establishment of a "Transitional Council." In another development, media reports have said that 50 Al-Qa'idah Organization elements were killed in a US raid on Abyan City and a leading figure in the JMP was assassinated in Aden.
A key pro-opposition figure, who requested to remain unidentified, told Al-Bayan yesterday that the JMP has approved the formation of a national council instead of establishing a transitional council, as all political parties in the country will be part of the national council, including the Justice Party, dissociated from President Ali Abdallah Salih, the JMP, and the opposition.
On another note, Ahmad al-Qama, a leading figure in the Southern [Mobility] Movement [SMM] was assassinated in mysterious circumstances in the heart of Aden City where he had escaped from the fight between the army forces and armed Islamic elements in Abyan Governorate.
At the security level, media sources have talked about the killing of 50 persons and wounding of dozens by an air raid launched by US aircraft early yesterday morning, against potential Al-Qa'idah Organization elements in Al-Wadi District in the southern Abyan Province. Moreover, two were killed in Ta'izz during a fight over fuel, while the manager of the Yemeni Petroleum Company's branch in the city asserted that the company officials caused this crisis for not getting their share of petroleum.

LANSING, MI (WTVB) - It's great news if you run a brewery or a liquor store but the confluence of St. Patrick's Day coming up Monday, March Madness and for some, spring break can make the roads a lot less safe. That's why 144 Michigan police agencies will be using federal dollars to fund extra patrols for the next three weeks, beginning this weekend.
Michael Prince with the Office of Highway Safety Planning says local officers know exactly the best places to wait for drunks. Prince says last year during this period the arrested over 23-hundred drunk drivers statewide, citing 671 for being super-drunks.

Women's Tennis
Women's Tennis Opens 2014 with Doubleheader
Jan. 17, 2014
EAST LANSING, Mich. - The Michigan State women's tennis team leads off its 2014 schedule with a doubleheader on Sunday. The Spartans will battle Toledo at 11 a.m. and Detroit at 5 p.m. Both matches will be held at the MSU Indoor Tennis Facility and admission is free.
"We have prepared ourselves well and look forward to this Sunday," sixth-year head coach Simone Jardim said. "We feel that this year will be a breakthrough year for our team."
First Serve
MSU returns nine players from last season, including five seniors. The Spartans have a good mix of returning talent pairing with a group of talented underclassmen.
"Leadership is what we're looking for and the seniors know how the program works," Jardim said in a preseason interview. "We have good seniors who can help out with the younger ones and show them the way and teach them the way."
No. 1 singles player and senior co-captain Marina Bohrer is the top returner. Bohrer posted an 18-13 overall and a 14-11 dual match record. Bohrer was also invited to participate in the singles pre-qualifying bracket of the ITA Women's All-American Championships in Sept. 2013. She was the first player under Coach Jardim to compete in the nationally-acclaimed tournament.
Senior co-captain Katarina Lingl is also one of the top returnees. Lingl has shown great leadership as well as solid all-around play during her Spartan career. She posted a 7-6 overall singles record and a 4-5 doubles record last season.
The talented class of underclassmen includes sophomore Emily Meyers and four freshmen: Athena Trouillot, Erin Faulkner, Emmy Virkus and Anna Zelechonok. Meyers tallied an 18-13 singles record last season. She also earned a win in the singles qualifying draw of the ITA Midwest Regional Championships. Meyers finished her fall schedule on a three-match winning streak and won four of her last five. Meyers also teams with junior Julianne Gruber in doubles play. At the ITA Midwest Regional Championships, Meyers and Gruber advanced to the round of 32 and they were good for a 14-7 record last season.
Last Point Played
Take on Toledo
Senior Chrissy Coffman leads the way in singles play under eleventh-year head coach Tracy Mauntler. Coffman posted an 11-10 dual record and was 5-3 in conference action last season. Coffman split time between the No. 1, 2 and 3 courts. She tallied a 12-1 singles record in the 2013 fall schedule.
Sophomore Mackenzie Bowman is the top doubles player after an 11-10 record last year. Bowman spent time on all three courts and teamed with sophomore Emily Mazzola to go 6-4 in doubles action.
Under Coach Jardim, MSU is 5-0 against Toledo. The last time the teams played in a dual-match setting, MSU blanked Toledo 7-0 on Feb. 2, 2013.
When Toledo comes to town Sunday, it will not be the first time it has faced the Spartans this season. MSU hosted the Spartan Invitational Sept. 27-29 and Toledo was in attendance.
Overall for the tournament, MSU tallied a 7-4 singles and an 0-2 doubles mark against the Rockets. The freshman class of Athena Trouillot, Erin Faulkner, Emmy Virkus and Anna Zelechonok combined for a 4-0 singles record versus Toledo.
Down Low on Detroit
Sophomore Valery Kulikovskaya is the top returning singles player. She tallied a 22-8 overall record, including 12-4 in dual matches and 6-1 in conference play. Kulikovskaya's 22 wins were tied for fifth-most in school history. Sophomores Nino Sujashvili and Irina Slizovskaya both spent some time competing on the No. 1 court last season.
Kulikovskaya is also the top returning doubles player, as she posted a 19-7 overall and a 13-4 dual match record.
Under Coach Jardim, MSU is 5-0 against Detroit. The last time the schools met, Jan. 29, 2013 in East Lansing, MSU shut out the Titans 7-0.
Offseason News and Notes
The Michigan State women's tennis program was recognized by MSU's Student Athlete Support Services in November for earning an NCAA Graduation Success Rate and a Federal Graduation Rate of 100 percent. A perfect score reflects the program and the coaches' priority toward academic excellence.

have purchased 1000 ct egyptian cotton sheets from overstock in the past and am disappointed in this set. these sheets were more like 400 to perhaps 600 ct in softness and thickness. in addition i found them to be somewhat skimpy in size. i would not buy them again nor recommend them to others.
These are the scratchiest 1000-thread counts I've ever encountered, which I presume is why the price is so reasonable. I expect these will soften with use but I still would have preferred a softer texture from the start, as is achieved by other high-thread-count sheets. Pros: deep fitted pocket fits my sleep number mattress + 4 inch memory foam topper. The color I ordered (stone/taupe) is beautiful. Cons: unpleasant texture
The color of the sheets is lovely but the quality is very poor. I have washed them many times and while the sheets themselves don't seem to pill, they literally shed onto everything, i.e., mattress pad, blankets, quilt, nightgown and carpet. The seams in the pillow cases started coming apart after one wash.
As the title implies, I've been buying high thread-count sheets for years now. When you first buy a pair of high thread-count sheets, sure, they're heavy, but they shouldn't be overly stiff as these sheets are. And with washing, they get softer over time. I have sheets from about 6 years ago, that, while they are getting a bit worn now, are probably the softest sheets ever, and they were like that when I took them out of the package. These are probably a double ply sheet. They're very stiff and yes, heavy, but it's like wearing a canvas blanket. I've had them for about six months now and they haven't really softened up at all, like I hoped they would. I don't know who you're trying to fool, Overstock, but it isn't me. You used to have great sheets, but not anymore. These are cast-offs.
The word santeen conjures up images of satin and silk and softness...not scratchiness, which these sheet are. I've had them close to a year now and through several washes and they have not softend one bit. I won't go so far as to say they feel like cardboard. They are a bit heavy, so I only sleep on them during the fall/winter season. The photo makes them look shiny, but they are not shiny at all. However, they are a nice chocolate color. I have sheets with lower thread count that feel silkier than these. These sheets aren't awful, but they do not live up to their reputation.
These sheets are so soft and wash up well, time after time. I am ordering two more sets now.
Sheets weren't as as soft as I was hoping but it is fine. The pewter color looks great.
Its hard to find Cali King sheets but these are really nice and a good price
The Representative was very professional and extremely helpful. Thank you, Mitch
These are the best sheets I've ever bought. They are soft, but really thick. They feel like nice hotel sheets. And I think they will last forever. Love both sets!!

We can now tell you the name of the registered sex offender who was left to supervise a Traverse City elementary school basketball team.
Jared Buchner was left with the young team after the coach, his wife Jessica, left the gym.
The incident happened Friday after school at Cherry Knoll Elementary.
The TCAPS superintendent says the principal was at the gym from the start, so the 2nd and 3rd grade girls were never in danger.
The principal had an uneasy feeling about the coach's husband and checked his background, only to find out he was a registered sex offender.
Coach Buchner was fired immediately and parents were notified of the situation.
We've attached the letter that was sent out to TCAPS parents and staff.
The former coach has a child at the school, but her husband, the registered sex offender, has been told to contact the principal of Cherry Knoll before visiting the campus again.

A northern Illinois concession area built atop Interstate 90 has closed, but not before travelers and spectators made a final trip to visit the Des Plaines Oasis.
The rest stop along the Jane Addams Memorial Tollway will be razed to make way for a $2 billion road-widening project. Its final day of operation was Sunday. Workers shut its doors for good at 8 p.m.
Jim Yarbrough lives in Des Plaines and brought his camera with him when he stopped by the oasis on Sunday.
He told The (Arlington Heights) Daily Herald he's "come through here forever." He says the rest stop "is part of Illinois history."
Susan Weigner brought her 2-year-old grandson to the oasis for lunch. She says the oasis was a fixture on her family's road trips.

Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright making a stop in Phoenix today. And that's not all, she brought her famous pin collection with her.
"This is actually a piece of the Berlin Wall that was given to me"
These pins and brooches worn by former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright were more than just a fashion statement. Depending on her audience they made a political statement too.
"When other ambassadors asked me what we were gonna do I said read my pins and that is how it all started" said Albright".
The exhibit is on display at the Phoenix Art Museum and is made up of more than 200 of her pins. There are the pins but also photographs and the stories behind her famous accessories. Most are costume jewelry but some are antiques and all have some kind of foreign policy story.
"I have spent a large portion of my life trying to make foreign policy interesting to people and make it less foreign" said Albright.
Dr. Albright's pins turned into statement pieces just after the Gulf War when the media in Iraq compared her to an "unparalleled serpent." She says she happened to have a snake pin so she wore it to her next meeting about Iraq.
"And then I thought while this is fun... so I went out and got a lot of costume jewelry that would in fact reflect what I thought was gonna happen on any given day, so on good days I wore flowers and butterflies and on bad days a lot of insects and horrible animals" said Albright.
And Albright says the rest is now history.

-- Robert Preidt
THURSDAY, Oct. 21 (HealthDay News) -- Over the next decade, the
growth in demand for radiation therapy in the United States will be
10 times greater than the increase in new radiation oncologists, a
difference that could affect cancer patients' access to treatment,
according to a new study.
Between 2010 and 2020, the number of patients requiring
radiation therapy will increase 22 percent but the number of
full-time radiation oncologists entering the workforce will
increase just 2 percent, said researchers at the University of
Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston and colleagues.
They based their predictions on projections that this year 3,943
radiation oncologists will treat an estimated 470,000 patients in
the United States.
The large increase in demand for radiation therapy will be
partly due to growing numbers of older adults and minorities,
groups in which certain types of cancers are more prevalent, said
the researchers. They estimated that the need for radiation therapy
will increase 45 percent for minorities and 38 percent for people
aged 65 and older.
"Shortages mean double trouble," study author Dr. Benjamin Smith, an assistant professor in the radiation oncology department, said in an M.D. Anderson news release. "Since research has shown that a delay between diagnosis and the start of radiation therapy can reduce its effectiveness, oncologists and radiologists must collaborate even more so the quality of care doesn't break down at multiple points."
More studies are needed to learn how practices can be changed to
take care of more patients and better provide radiation therapy
without reducing quality of, and access to, care, Smith added.
The study was published in the Oct. 18 issue of the
Journal of Clinical Oncology.
