Italy policeman murder suspect arrested in London
Category: England
Published: 27th Apr 2012 06:07:17
A murder suspect who has been wanted by police in Italy for three decades has been arrested after being seen in a post office queue in London.
Gianfranco Techegne, 49, has been sought by the Italian authorities since 1982 over an armed robbery in Naples in which a police officer was shot dead.
A Metropolitan Police spokesman said he was held on Tuesday after being seen in a post office opposite Scotland Yard.
He was remanded in custody by Westminster magistrates on Wednesday.
The Met spokesman said that acting on intelligence, detectives from the force's extradition unit had spotted Gianfranco Techegne queuing up in the post office in Broadway.
He said officers had received a European Arrest Warrant from the Italian authorities last month.
Mr Techegne, of Old Pye Street, Westminster, was also wanted on suspicion of armed robbery and possession of firearms.

Bristol Academy extends reach overseas with first foreign studentsWith the doors to its brand new £1million training centre officially open, one of the UK's leading apprentice training providers, Bristol based S&B Automotive Academy, is showcasing its world-class facilities by launching a series of foreign student exchanges for the first time in its 41-year history. To get a flavour of what life is like as an apprentice in the UK, the Academy hosted 16 apprentice engineers and bus drivers from the G9 Automotive College in Hamburg, Germany, as part of a Europe-wide vocational training initiative called the 'Leonardo Programme' with support from the European Social Fund. In a reciprocal arrangement, S&B will be sending nine apprentices to Germany during February 2012 so that they can get an appreciation of life in the automotive industry on the Continent. A further three German exchange groups are being planned for next year. Designed to assist the development of vocational skills and training across Europe, including work placements for trainees, the Leonardo Programme has a budget of €1.75bn, which is helping to encourage UK organisations to work with their counterparts abroad. In what is expected to be another challenging year for employers in the UK automotive sector, S&B's Chief Executive, Jon Winter, claims that the exchange initiative will bring many benefits to the Academy and its apprentices: "In a world of global automotive brands, it's important for our learners to understand the international context of the industry they have chosen to make their career. This new exchange programme will enable apprentices and Academy staff alike to achieve a better understanding of the challenges and opportunities within the automotive arena in Europe. With the Academy's influence also extending to the USA and Asia, there's every possibility that this initiative could move further afield in the future." Continued Winter: "The need for skilled technicians across the world is on the increase and we actively encourage our apprentices to look at broader horizons during their training. Many of them have already learned the phrase 'Vorsprung durch Gelehrtheit', quite simply, 'Advancement through learning." In the 2010/11 academic year, S&B doubled the number of successful Apprenticeships over the previous year with some 350 apprentices graduating from the Academy. At the same time, achievement levels reached an all-time high with an overall success rate of 85%. For those learners on the Advanced Apprenticeship three-year programme, success rates were even higher, at over 98%. PHOTO CAPTION: As part of their exchange visit, S&B Automotive Academy arranged for the German apprentices to visit Hampshire bus operator, Bluestar, at its Barton Park depot. The students are pictured with S&B's Andy West (3rd right) and Steve Prewett, Bluestar's Area Engineering Manager (2nd right). Ends http://www.sandbaa.com

Five Star (5-Star) game show events have high end displays, graphic backdrops, tons of truss, scanning lights, and tend to be a lot more show.
Pipe and Drape is replaced by solid wall graphic backdrops. Various sizes of truss are used for contestant booths and counters. Added are multi color lights, extra robotic lighting is set up, and the general overall look is upgraded. This takes more time to set up, more staff to run, and thus costs a little more, but it is definitely worth it.

Special Curfew Areas Intended to Deter Underage Drinking Activity
On March 13th 2006, the El Paso City Council passed an amendment to the City's Curfew Ordinance (title 10 Municipal Code). This amendment adds "Special Curfew Areas" and "Special Curfew Hours" to the existing ordinance. The original city ordinance came to effect in the early 90's. It was created in an effort to help curb the gang violence that was having a tremendous effect on our city at that time. The original ordinance made it a municipal violation (citable offense) for any person under the age of 17 to be out on any public place or establishment after 11p.m.
The amendment, which is now currently in effect, defines the Special Curfew areas as:
"Special Curfew Areas" - the areas contained within the following boundaries:

My research is motivated by my experiences as an elementary school teacher in an economically disadvantaged community in New Orleans. My students and their families inspired me to conduct research focused on informing the development of interventions and policies to support positive child development in high-risk, low-income communities. In particular, I was struck by the resilient outcomes of some students who thrived despite the odds, and by the extensive involvement of multiple family members in the lives of young children. My goal is to understand how to leverage these strengths to conduct research to inform policy and program development that ultimately improves the life chances of young children from economically disadvantaged communities. In addition, I am interested in understanding how culture shapes parenting, family relationships, and child development.
I will be accepting Ph.D. applicants for entry in Fall 2014.
Broadly, my research program considers how family relationships are shaped by individual characteristics and larger cultural and socioeconomic contexts to influence parental well-being, parenting and coparenting behaviors, and early childhood social and emotional development. My focus is on identification of family strengths among disadvantaged families.
Specifically, my research examines how significant adults, including fathers and grandmothers, influence early childhood development, directly, through interactions with the child, and indirectly, through relationships with the mother. Considering other family members or adults who play significant support and caregiving roles is especially relevant to child development in disadvantaged and ethnic minority communities.

They can – and they should, local businesswoman Kristy Crabtree said.
But making the transition to e-marketing might just give a business the edge it needs to attract new customers as well as retain current ones, she emphasized.
Crabtree's company, Westward Strategy and Design Group, has been busy the past few months. With the launching of six Web sites for Reno and Sparks businesses, Crabtree spends her time consulting with businesses and showing them how a Web site can enhance their services.
"We try to be a full-service for online (needs)," said Crabtree, who opened Westward, her first business, two years ago.
Crabtree, along with marketing and design specialist Chris Gandolfo, consult with their clients to understand their advertising objectives and design Web sites to target their desired demographics, increase traffic hits and optimize Internet searches so their companies are found more easily.
Web marketing, Crabtree said, offers businesses som things that traditional methods of advertising doesn't: the ability to evaluate results and effectiveness.
Westward can report to their clients how effective their sites are through analytics, which is the tracking of information about a Web site's user: their location, how long they spend on the site and even what they're interested in by the pages they visit.
Such background information helps Westward and other e-marketing companies determine whether the Web site's information is effectively helping the company achieve its goals.
"With analytics, you can see an impact has been made to the bottom line," Gandolfo said.
E-marketing has potential for businesses of any size. Westward is now focusing on rural clients, such as businesses in Winnemucca, for whom they are now building a site similar to www.monster.com for rural employers and job seekers.
Crabtree said having a site geared specifically on the local level allows these businesses to have more control over what they're posting.
Westward's clientele is a variety of businesses in different industries, all with different needs. One of the six companies that recently had their Web sites launched by Westward, ACS Business Insurance Services, Inc., had its former site redone to become more user-friendly, said ACS President Andy Perwein.
"We created more of a user-friendly site that would involve interaction from a quoting perspective," Perwein said. "Prospective clients can go in and obtain quotes for themselves and family members on medical and life insurance."
It creates easier access for the potential client, who can then call the company to talk to an agent further about their options. Hiring Westward Strategy was a good move for ACS, he said.
"I've known Kristy a long time and the e-marketing side of the equation was important to be able to get more traffic driven to our site," Perwein said.
Still, ACS will continue using its traditional mailings and print advertising to promote its services, begging the question: Will e-marketing replace traditional means of advertising?
Carol Wenzel of Nevada Presort and Mail Marketing, said she doesn't think so.
The Sparks-based business that sorts and meters individual and mass mailings hasn't seen a significant decrease in services due to e-marketing because some people prefer the old-fashioned method of receiving materials in their mailbox, Wenzel said.
"I think people still prefer … to look at a pretty picture of something they might need instead of getting it in their e-mail," she said. "I personally delete it (from my e-mail) because I don't know I need it."
Wenzel said if there has been a decrease in advertising mailers, it's because of the slumping economy, not necessarily because businesses are taking their marketing online.
"You never know from day to day," she said. "It goes back and forth."
Crabtree said e-marketing is often cheaper than mailing out postcards and purchasing advertisements in local newspapers. She said designing a site, in general, often ranges from $500 to $25,000, depending on how sophisticated and complex the clients' needs are.
"If it's a site for an entrepreneur or sole proprietor, it's cheap for them," Crabtree said. "The rest are just bells and whistles."
Regardless of price, Crabtree said if companies want greater success at bringing in customers, e-marketing is becoming the way to go. They might do well on traditional means of advertising, but without an online presence, "you're missing out," she said.

Summary of The Communist Manifesto Summary of The Communist Manifesto Reviews for The Communist Manifesto An Excerpt from The Communist Manifesto
Marx and Engel's landmark treatise-in a graphic deluxe edition.
One of the most important and influential political theories ever formulated, The Communist Manifesto is a revolutionary summons to the working class-an incisive account of a new theory of communism that would be brought about by a proletarian revolution. Arguing that increasing exploitation of industrial workers will eventually lead to a rebellion in which capitalism will be overthrown, Marx and Engels propose a vision of a society without classes, private property, or a state. The theoretical basis of political systems in Russia, China, Cuba, and Eastern Europe, The Communist Manifesto continues to influence and provoke debate on capitalism and class.

Halton police have made an arrest in connection with a distraction scam going on in Halton this past summer.
On the afternoon of Sunday, Aug. 26 police said a woman was walking in the area of Parklane Road when a vehicle pulled up next to her.
The male driver began asking the woman about a church and started crying, stating he and his companion were giving away souvenirs to people in memory of his late mother.
Police said a woman in the vehicle's backseat then put a ring on the woman's finger and a necklace around her neck.
A short time after the vehicle drove away, the woman realized her own necklace had been removed, allegedly while interacting with the couple.
The jewelry the woman was given turned out to be worthless.
Members of the Oakville Criminal Investigations Bureau subsequently began an investigation into the incident, which resulted in the arrest of a suspect Nov. 30.
Guta Stancu, 29, of Toronto faces a charge of theft under $5,000.
He will appear in a Milton court on Jan. 8.
An arrest warrant has also been issued for Crin Chiciu, 35, of Toronto on a charge of theft under $5,000 in connection with the same incident.
Police said a similar distraction theft happened in Acton the same day as the Oakville incident. In the Acton case, a necklace was stolen from a woman after suspects put a fake necklace around her neck.
Other distraction thefts were also reported in Hamilton earlier in August.
No charges have been laid in connection with the Acton incident as of yet and police previously stated they are unsure whether the Hamilton incidents are connected.

Enjoy Hockey Day in America... any chance to celebrate this sport is a good one. It looks like NBC is splitting up its triple header by having back-to-back games on the main network, with the third tilt going on the NBC Sports Network.
Pretty effective exposure for the league, although hard-core fans who use the NHL Centre Ice package (at least in my area) seem to draw the short end of the stick today. With NBC having the broadcast rights to the three games which begin the day (staggered starts for the three games, shown on the same broadcast depending on your region, was admittedly a pretty cool way to kick things off), you're not allowed to flip back and forth between whichever games you'd want. Viewers are stuck with their regional game and, as far as I can tell now, that's it. Boo!
Ilya Kovalchuk (25-32-57 in 52 GP to lead the Devils) is having a terrific season and was asked whether he felt pressure from his 15-year, $100M contract last year, where he finished with 60 points in what was one of the more disappointing overall campaigns of his career: "Not really. My contract before that wasn't that bad either." He touches on how being used on the PK has also helped his 5-on-5 play and how he hopes Zach Parise, the leader of the team, stays in Jersey.
Speaking of contracts, James Neal and the Pens have agreed on a six-year extension worth an even $5M each season. It has a modified no trade clause which kicks in for the final three years, which apparently will let him nix eight teams to which he could not be traded. He would have been an RFA this summer.
Neal's statistical feats were mentioned a bit last night in this Ramblings and there have certainly been no shortage of '11-12 accolades for the man who has shown Pittsburgh fans why he was given the Real Deal nickname. What might not get referenced as often is how Neal, the Pens and Evgeni Malkin are just a great fit.
"I'm just so comfortable in Pittsburgh," he said. "With the commitment the organization is going to give me, it couldn't be a better feeling. I couldn't find a better spot. Pittsburgh is where I wanted to be. I love everything about what goes on here and how we play the game. I have some great teammates. It's been a comfort feeling from Day 1. I just couldn't see myself anywhere else, and hopefully the success continues."
It's easy to say that anyone can pile up points playing next to Malkin or Sidney Crosby, but the fact is that there's a pretty substantial list of players who have not done what we'd consider anything near thriving despite repeated chances to skate alongside greatness. And how many guys have we seen tried with the Sedins in Vancouver over the years? Neal's size and skill-set complement a revitalized Malkin to a "T". All things considered, $5M per season is a pretty fair price for both sides here in the world of inflated sports salaries.
Michael Cammalleri was 13-7 on faceoffs tonight and he scored the only goal of the game, giving him markers in three of four with points in five of six. It took a little while for him to get going, but he's found his comfort zone in the middle again and the points are beginning to flow with regularity. Miikka Kiprusoff and Jonathan Quick, to no one's surprise, put on a show here.
So how clutch has Radim Vrbata been for Phoenix? After tonight's overtime winner against Dallas, he has 10 GWG on the season and he has decided four of the past six outings alone. With one more winner he'll match his total in that category from the prior four seasons combined. He fired in his 28th goal here too, which is a new career best. He's seven points shy of tying his best point total at 56.
Martin Hanzal left the game with an injury, incidentally. Mike Smith has won all seven February starts, has only given up two goals in his past four with seven goals on the month. Three of them came in the first game.
Not only did the Canes lose 4-3 to the Isles, but Cam Ward did not play the third period after suffering a groin injury. Kirk Muller said after the game Ward would ice the area tonight and they'd have a better idea of how serious it is tomorrow. Groin injuries are notoriously unpredictable, especially for goalies, so it wouldn't hurt to eye a backup plan if he's on your roster. Whether this groin issue is related to the "tweak" to which Muller referenced the other day remains to be seen, but it's certainly possible. Justin Peters started that night and finished out this one this evening.
Jiri Tlusty has points in all seven February starts now and he opened with Eric Staal again on the first line.
P.A. Parenteau spent a lot of time with John Tavares and Matt Moulson this season before being bumped down a line in a swap with Kyle Okposo in an effort to spread out the scoring. The two traded places again tonight, which resulted in Okposo snapping an eight-game February goalless stretch. Parenteau, who has been money all season long, tied last year's career high of 53 points here. It looked like he had a third point too, but the assist was taken away. Matt Moulson is three points shy of his career high and he'll smash it this time around. John Tavares was, by all accounts, the best player on the ice for either team and his three points exceeded his entire output for the month.
Mike Green finally returned to action for the first time since January 7. He only played 14:14 and had just a smattering of power play time, but he'll be eased back into his normal role before too long. Even if you account for a few weeks to get up to speed, that still leaves time to help out for H2H playoffs and the final portion of the season for roto owners. This, naturally, is assuming he can actually stay healthy.
The resurgence of Alexander Semin continued to unfold here with another helper. Since December 17, he has played in 27 games and has tallied 26 points. Alex Ovechkin has 22 points in that same span.
Steven Stamkos put away his 40th goal of the season, which now makes him the only player in Lightning history to own three separate 40-marker campaigns. It's also worth noting in you're in a deeper league that Brendan Mikkelson has been getting some first unit power play time of late. No points tonight, but he had two in the last game and anybody on the ice when Stamkos, Martin St. Louis and Vincent Lecavalier are skating with a man advantage stands to dramatically increase his chances of netting some pointage.
The Canucks laid waste to the Leafs in a 6-2 drubbing with the first line of Daniel Sedin (1-3-4), Henrik Sedin (0-4-4) and Alexandre Burrows (2-0-0) combining for 10 points. It's the first time since December either Sedin has come up with more than two points in a game.
It's been pretty clear for awhile that Phil Kessel would, barring injury, obliterate his career high in points this season and he needs just one more now to tie last year's best of 64. He has four straight years of 30+ goals, which is a stellar feat on its own merit, with at least 60 points in three of his past four seasons. He was a combined -28 over his prior two years, but after tonight he sits at +4... even with a -2 against Vancouver.
Shortly after nabbing Nicklas Grossman from the Dallas Stars, Paul Holmgren pulled the trigger again and acquired Pavel Kubina from the Tampa Bay Lightning. So in just a few days, the Flyers have made big strides in filling the gaping hole that Chris Pronger's season-ending absence left months ago.
Kubina can certainly fill some power play minutes when needed (behind Kimmo Timonen, but potentially ahead of Matt Carle... we'll see), but the overall thrust of both moves is this: the boost that Ilya Bryzgalov and Sergei Bobrovsky should see down the stretch stands to be measurably positive. It was already a good time to get a steal of a deal on Bryzgalov in keeper leagues, but now the near future is looking even brighter with some increased depth on D.
Bryz shall rise again. He was a weirdo when he was playing great with Phoenix and his eccentricities just stand out more in a noisier hockey market like Philly when the saves aren't coming. He's a solid goalie and his fantasy value will come around. He's been fighting consistency, yes, but this too shall pass.
James van Riemsdyk was activated for the matinee with the Pens, opening with Brayden Schenn and the sizzling Wayne Simmonds. It was Jakub Voracek shifted onto the Scott Hartnell – Claude Giroux line, with Jaromir Jagr moving with Danny Briere and Matt Read. Grossman had three blocked shots and eight hits in his debut with Philly. Not too shabby at all.
James Neal not only reached the 30-goal plateau for the first time in his career today, but he also recorded his 56th point and that's a best for him as well. Three more helpers will give him 29, which will also set a new high. Both Matt Cooke and Jordan Staal scored shorties in that contest, including one coming two men down. It's downright embarrassing to have that done against you. Cooke's three-pointer gives him points in six of his past 10, while Staal has five points in his four games back.
So the St. Louis Blues now have 11 shutouts after 45 games of Ken Hitchcock's wizardry. His hockey IQ is so high in the stratosphere it's ridiculous. I could listen to him or Mike Babcock talk about hockey all day long. You can learn more in a 30-second soundbite from either of them than you can in a typical 2.5 hour hockey broadcast in many markets. Brian Elliott, for the record, saw all of 13 shots today for his sixth shutout of the season. His last goose egg, which came in early January, was a 15-saver. Jaroslav Halak has five shutouts in the last five weeks alone.
Alex Pietrangelo added another two points to his coffers, bringing his 2012 total to 23 points in 20 GP. Kevin Shattenkirk is logging prominent power play minutes and with points in B2B starts now, he'll be looking to steer his season in the right direction again after a long dry spell. Andy McDonald has points in three of four since returning from his concussion (with Patrik Berglund and Jamie Langenbrunner) and David Perron's (with David Backes and T.J. Oshie) point streak has now reached seven tilts.
The Hawks are looking like the real Hawks again and they pasted the forlorn Columbus Blue Jackets 6-1. The usual suspects are chipping in points again for Chicago and the trades or decisions on direction cannot come soon enough for the Jackets. They'd better get a damn good return if they deal away Rick Nash. Panic deals will only make the situation worse in the long run.
Joey MacDonald will get another start for the Wings on Sunday, which will make seven in a row for him as the team hopes to extend that home winning streak to 23 contests. With MacDonald playing so well, it can't hurt to give Jimmy Howard a few more days to rest his finger. It seems as if Howard could play if he had to, but there's no need to force it at this point. Nice luxury for the Wings that MacDonald stepped up when they needed him most.
Some good news for the Avs too, with Matt Duchene expected to return from his knee injury and skate in his first game of 2012. Peter Mueller is still fighting his torso issue and will not play again.
Every other Sunday I tack on an extra article here at DH. This week I took a look at how technology is pressuring poolies into making quick decisions on free agents, especially near the trade deadline. There is something you can do that could be the difference between you or your competition landing that player.

563 Second St, San Francisco, CA | Directions 9410737.782419 -122.392614
Mon-Thu 11:30am-12am
Fri-Sat 11:30am-1am
Neighborhoods: South Beach, Central East
One of San Francisco's beloved craft breweries. The food here isn't anything to write home about, but that's not why you come. It's all about the beer and baseball on game days. The watermelon wheat is a must try!
Great after a Giants game! – This is the place to be after a Giants game! Especially if they win! The crowd is happy and the beer tastes that much better after a good win. The beer selection is always changing so you can try something new every time you're there. The watermelon beer is just OK, but it seems like a lot of people like it. I of course went with their IPA, which again, of course, was delish! I want to try this place again when it isn't so crowded so I can enjoy the good food selections without the big crowd.
Fun place for good local beer – I went to 21st A on a regular tuesday night out for beers after work and really liked it. I sat at the bar, tried one of their creative brews (watermelon wheat - refreshing) and ended up trying one of their "beer cocktails" too. Fun!
Don't go on a game day by accident like I did the other night. My own fault. (Sh*t show for sure. Super drunk people - tons of them.)
awesome brews and pub food best in SF – View the full Vindivine review here: h*ttp://bit.ly/pN0MM
Since it's a brew pub, we'll start there. They always have a line up of 6-8 house brews plus a guest pour or two. Some of the best include the Watermelon Wheat (hey don't call it a girlie beer, there's 400 lbs of melon in each batch. Yummy), Opening Day IPA (hoppy but not too hoppy), General Pippo's Porter (essence of coffee and chocolate) and when they have it, the Double Trouble (or is it Triple? Or am I just thinking about the Beastie Boys?) Anyhoo, it packs a wallop so don't turn your back on it.
First, how many times have I treated this watering hole like my beeyaatch and not given in the h-u-g-e props it deserves as both a watering hole and an eating hole?
If your from out of town and Love Great Microbrews, Food, and Service you need to STOP HERE! – First of all the only bad thing here is the parking and I had no change for the meter BUT I did have cash. Living in Portland now, I walk in feeling a little weird about having to ask the bartender for meter change, I get a big smile and she says of course how much do you want. WOW!, not used to that.
This is the most friendly and accommodating brew pub I've ever been to. I think they knew I was from out of town but made me feel like I belonged there. It was a great relaxing feeling. The food was really good, the beer even better and the server and the bartender were very friendly, attentive and accommodating. If I lived there this would be the place I would stop off at every night to unwind and relax after work. In April I will be taking another vacation in which I will be stopping in the city there for a few days to do some cycling and hiking in the park at Muir Woods on my way to my hometown to visit friends and family. I also plan to stop in here at least twice for more of the dark IPA (can't remember the name) Even if I have to park blocks away, I will, knowing it will be worth the walk. If you live in the city and haven't been there yet, you've been missing out. If your cruising in from out of town, seriously, Make plans to stop in. I hope you will love this place as much as I did and do.
Great beers – Love this place. Great beer selection, close to work - what more can I ask (Also, testing Facebook Connect :-) )
Happy Hanger... – Wow. Went to 21st last night with co-workers to celebrate some recent success. We arrived just before the "Happy Hour" deals ended at 5:30pm. We ordered wings, calamari, fries and a couple of pizza- all were tasty. We sat upstairs for a bit more room and privacy. A game was on tv and the atmorspher was fun. Warning: I had a couple of IPA's and boy, do they provide a whallop the next morning.
Great happy hour location – Hosted a company happy hour upstairs last night and had a great time there. Plenty of flat panels around to watch the game, $3 appetizers and $3 pints. The IPA and Watermelon Wheat were very popular. The staff was attentive and helpful. Be careful, the brewpub beers sneak up on you a bit (both at the time and the next morning).
HORRIBLE – Me and my boyfriend have been there plenty of times. Everytime to be greeted with horrible service: our food got taken away without asking if we had finished, I got sprayed with beer because the bartender was inexperienced at using a bartap (not to mention he didn't take our order till he passed us about 5 times eventhough the bartap was right in front of us), our waitstaff is always unfriendly, this is the last time we will ever go there - i ordered a vodka cranberry and my boyfriend a screwdriver, which tasted like cranberry juice and orange juice (after I told them my first drink tasted like just juice). I would rather goto BURGER KING than go to this horrible place, i'm sorry if i'm paying for a dinner at a "RESTAURANT" i expect it. They should just stick to serving beer and food to hicks!
So slow – Ordered a "to go" order and was told it would take 15-20 minutes. Okay, well, a little long, but I could use a break. When my order was still not ready 30 minutes later I was getting a little steamed. 40 minutes after I ordered, I finally got my hamburger (yes, that's all I ordered). No one came by to check on me, offer me water or apologize for the delay. I know this isn't "fast food" but 40 minutes is unacceptable. I'm never going back.
SOMA beer stop – Excellent brewpub, with great happy hour prices and tasty food. Easy to access from public transport, well worth seeking out. Service is excellent if a bit neutral on the friendliness. Maybe if you're a regular.....? Good place to kick back and enjoy a few brews.

Peppermint pigs a smashing success
With VIDEO
SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. (AP) — A holiday tradition in this upstate New York resort town has a peppermint twist: pig-shaped hard candies are sold with little metal hammers to smash them at Christmas.
The peppermint pigs, which can weigh up to a pound, are considered good luck charms by some. Family members will take turns whacking the piggy tokens of holiday cheer into little candy shards.

IPL lures young Aussie stars
A generation of cricket's elite youngsters could shun traditional forms of the game to preen themselves as Twenty20 specialists, as the cash from the IPL begins to filter down through cricketing ranks.
The recruitment of young NSW all-rounder Moises Henriques and the courting of fellow Blues David Warner, 22, and Steven Smith, still just 19, by IPL franchise Kolkata Knight Riders could be a pivotal moment for Australian cricket, as domestic players become illuminated as IPL targets ahead of international stars.
Most of Australia's Test players won't be available for the IPL over the next two years, with their busy schedule making the Indian tournament a bull market for ready and willing state-based talent.
At just 21 years of age and with only a handful of first-class appearances to his name, Henriques now finds himself with a $455,000 financial windfall many better-credentialed players in his Blues squad could only dream about.
The prospect of similar sums could entice rising teen stars to concentrate on skills more suitable to Twenty20 cricket than four-day games and Tests. The green of the IPL cash could prove to be more of an inspiration than the green of a baggy cap.
Queensland wicketkeeper Chris Hartley, who will compete for the Bulls in the KFC Big Bash Twenty20 clash at The Gabba on Boxing Day against NSW, said he could envisage circumstances in which promising youngsters focus explicitly on the 20-over game to kickstart their careers, both in cricketing and financial terms.
"I think there's a good chance of that happening," he said. "To me, Twenty20 is cricket's version of a football game. Obviously the last few years we've seen just how much the crowds are embracing it, the public is embracing it. There's the IPL competitions and the KFC Big Bash in Australia, which are probably going to expand.
"There's going to be opportunities for guys to play Twenty20 cricket. And if guys are more suited to that, they're probably going to practice for that and specialise in that format.
"I think it's been something they've talked about for a few years now, the idea of Twenty20 specialists. I think there is room for it in the game. There's definitely some guys around in state cricket who are more suited to the Twenty20 version."
It was only last year, prior to the inaugural Twenty20 World Cup held in South Africa, that Australian captain Ricky Ponting was expressing concerns that the new game was being taken too seriously, draining it of the "fun factor".
Now, with the IPL in full swing, an international Champions League on the calendar and the game exploding at all levels of cricket, Twenty20 is anything but a triviality.
Cricketing clubs around the country are holding their own Twenty20 tournaments, meaning players as young as 10 are being exposed to the game for the first time.
The format is rapidly being added to all levels of the elite youth competitions, becoming a booming and increasingly important third plank in the make-up of the junior game.
Queensland Cricket is running an Under 17 Twenty20 tournament this season, while a national Under 18 Twenty20 competition will be held next March under the auspices of Cricket Australia.
That tournament, open to clubs, has been sponsored by energy drink company Gatorade.
The state Under 17 and Under 19 representative sides all include Twenty20 games in their schedules, while the indigenous Imparja Cup now begins with a round of 20-over clashes.
Women's cricket has also benefitted from Twenty20, with the Queensland Fire playing curtain raisers to Big Bash matches. Some modified games designed to attract young children to the sport now incorporate aspects of Twenty20.
Cricket NSW chief executive Dave Gilbert has warned his players not to let jealousy infiltrate the ranks if more players are signed, a situation Bulls skipper Chris Simpson has also contemplated handling should the situation arise.
Simpson said there would be no animosity towards young players making big dollars so early in their careers, although the disparity to the incomes of state servants, like Bulls veteran Martin Love, is blindingly apparent.
"It's something that I've spoken to Martin Love a bit about. There's a bloke who is our greatest ever run scorer and he might miss out on all this stuff. The next generation before him would speak about a similar thing," Simpson said.
"I don't think there's any animosity towards the next generation. If anything, there's excitement that the game's growing and expanding at the rate that it is. I don't think there is any bitterness."
Indeed, it may be Simpson's turn to top up his bank account in the near future. The strapping all-rounder is exactly the type of player to tempt the Indian scouts and he said like most, he would jump at the opportunity for an IPL stint.
"Of course you'd love to go. You'd love to play cricket around the world. The more cricket you play with champion cricketers, which the IPL promotes, you'd be silly not to do that. I love cricket and I love trying to improve myself," Simpson said.
Simpson is less concerned that four-day and Test prospects may dry up in junior cricket talent pools. If anything, he says, the soaring fortunes of Twenty20 will see an abundance of physically gifted athletes bringing added speed and power to the first-class ranks.
"What I think might happen is the nature of the game is going to promote more physical athletes. As it happens, not everyone's blessed physically and people find their little niche that they can play cricket in," Simpson said.
"You may get specialist four-day players that are champions of the game in their own field. I agree that young fellas might get promoted to that first but I don't necessarily think the other sides will be neglected."

The law allows doctors to show that a long-prescribed medicine would be the best for a patient. Previously, insurance companies could deny payments for such medication until patients had first tried a cheaper alternative.

Of course assets are worth a lot less; 0bama is printing 85 Billion Dollars each and every month out of thin air; that makes every dollar worth a lot less. 0bama says there is no inflation, but then, he does not have to buy groceries, buy gasoline, or pay his heating bills. Everyone knows we have huge inflation, but they just do not count food, housing, or energy (the three biggest purchases for an American family). But the number for inflation is "rigged" just like the unemployment numbers that they say are less than 8%; the real number is 16% or higher.

here is study of 3 point perspective for next concept
and here with texture
now comes painting part
That's 3d correct?
No man, pure and beautiful 2d
btw i can show you how, if you are interested?
Hi Mateja,
even if i know how to do it in 2D,
you perspective setups drive me crazy))
great work my friend!
Really cool stuff man, your dynamic poses really do it for me!
Awesome man but the last perspective shot looks kind of flat, I think you exaggerated it to the point where the forms don't hold in 3d anymore hahah. However that might be what you're aiming for so I have no idea, heh. Keep it up bro.

Thanks Septh13 and AmbientChroma
btw i hope you can "feel" this perspective better now
Morgado here is example of perspective i was talking about(btw i found on this forums same thing. check this link http://conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?t=132023)
here is print screen of it
i use line tool(shortcut U) set to 1px and just draw(cool thing is that you can draw on "gray" area outside of image.
Ok, back to nikeman v.03
so are the floors on this building made in 3d or painted in photoshop. if the latter how do you keep all the lines straight and clean. this is my problem...
Wilkerson nothing is 3d, i explained method how you can create perspective in 2d, when you finished with line tool(when you draw with line tool he automaticly create path) then go to path window, right click on it and choose option fill path with foreground color(make sure that you create new layer because once you fill path with foreground color he will do that on selected layer)
After that you just follow those lines or better select wanted area and create mask
Hope this helps, and if you didn't understand feel free to ask
update for tonight
Very cool composition on that last one. The only thing breaking it in my opinion is the far leg. Can't put my finger on why exactly though.
About the perspective setup: I already knew that trick. In fact you can even be more precise if u cross 2 guides where the vanishing point is, and snap the lines on the intersection.
I only thought that image was 3d, not because of the perspective but because of the clean rendering
Thanks Morgado
still working on this

Hey Mateja,
very cool.
Thanks J, i will finish it tonight
hey, thanks! checking out your book too, cool stuff. those pieces with the hyper foreshortening are crazy
as far as nudes advice, the thing I'd say is to mind your brush size and strokes. Some areas look choppy where they could have more simplified and larger strokes. Try using the small detail strokes only where necessary in the final stages. Looking at the progression on page 3, there are some areas working better in the middle step than the last step. Also watch those harsh choppy edges. Think of simplified shape, elegant strokes, and gentle warm transitions I like how you're playing with the color too!

Athens, Georgia has long been known as a hub for music and arts. If you're visiting in June, the annual AthFest Music and Arts Festival, named a top 20 event by the Southeast Tourism Society, is not to be missed. Here, you'll find original music, art, local film screenings, and fun for all ages. During the rest of the year, there are many exciting things to see and do. Explore Downtown Athens and you're sure to find unique art and music along the way.
A visit to the Morton Theater will take you back in time, as you see what one of the first vaudeville theatres in the US owned and operated by an African America was like back in the early 1900's. Now a rental facility, it also hosts many dramatic and musical performances throughout the year. A local musician's paradise, Athens is home to many clubs which feature both headline acts and local bands. Check out the Melting Point, Cine and the 40 Watt Club for a great time in the evening.
With so much to see and do, you won't want to rest, but there are many great places to stay once you're here. If you want to be in the middle of downtown, plan to stay at the Foundry Park Inn and Spa. If you long for something a little more quiet, both The Colonels and Fair Havens Plantation will pamper you.
