Balancing act: Who is in control of your work-life balance?
I also believe that a wise manager, and a successful company, will try to help employees build a balanced life. By doing so, they may find that they are more successful at retaining talented workers. They also may find that employees who have better work-life balance are happier and more productive.
In his email, Mike continues by sharing a message for younger co-workers, urging them not to complain and to remember how lucky they are to have jobs at all.
"Here's how this works: You arrive at a building every day and perform a task. For this, you will be paid a certain amount of money," Mike wrote. "If you do not perform the task properly, you may be strongly encouraged to stay out of the building. (You are fired. No more money.)
"If you succeed in your task, you get to keep coming back to the building. ... If you put in extra effort, help others or make the company more money, you may be eligible for a raise. (May is the operative word here. You don't get more money just because you show up for work and complete your task for a year.)
"Take responsibility for your job and your life. ... I am going to complete my daily task now, so I can get money and return to the building again tomorrow. But, I choose to do so. It's my personal responsibility."
Yes it is, Mike. And I appreciate you sharing your views, admitting as you did that they could be the rant of a curmudgeon or pearls of wisdom from someone with experience.
Either way, I agree with your core message that we must take personal responsibility for our own work-life balance based on the choices we make. I did so, and I've been blessed by the results.
I'd like to hear other readers' opinions of this, too. Do you agree with Mike? Or do you think companies should play a more active role in encouraging work-life balance for their workers?
Let me know, and I'll share some of your responses in a future column.

HOUSTON — Local health systems across Texas are working to disqualify certain patients who remained enrolled in the taxpayer-funded medical programs instead of getting insurance through the Affordable Care Act.
HOUSTON - Mike Norby is no longer basking in praise over Houston surpassing enrollment expectations in the federal health insurance marketplace.
HOUSTON (AP) — A bipartisan group of mayors from across the country unanimously approved a resolution Monday that calls on cities to use natural solutions to fight the effects of climate change.
HOUSTON — Mayors from the GOP-dominated states of Texas and Arizona are calling on cities to use nature to fight the impacts of climate change, even while Republican governors and lawmakers repeatedly question the science that shows human-caused pollution contributes to global warming.
As conservative governors criticize the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's new rules designed to cut greenhouse gas emissions from power plants, the mayors — many from cities already struggling with climate-change effects — are taking steps and spending money to stem the damage.
HOUSTON - Texas' oil and gas regulator has instituted a blanket policy barring staff from doing media interviews, raising questions about transparency just as the state grapples with the intricacies of one of the largest energy booms in decades.
For a set of Texas twins, being joined at the hip is not just a cliche — that was basically the first 10 months of their life.
FREEPORT, Texas (AP) — Before Houston and its suburbs were built, a dense forest naturally purified the coastal air along a stretch of the Texas Gulf Coast that grew thick with pecan, ash, live oak and hackberry trees.

Man charged in Pittsford crashJune 25,2013Man charged in crash
PITTSFORD A Forestdale man was injured and will face a criminal charge from a crash on Route 7 Sunday afternoon, according to Vermont State Police.
Lucas Manchester, 33, was driving a 2000 Chevy S10 pickup north through the middle of town just before 5 p.m. when he left the roadway and crashed into a guard rail, police said.
Manchester, who was wearing his seat belt, cut his head during the crash and was taken to Rutland Regional Medical Center for what police said was a minor injury.
He was also issued a criminal citation to appear in court next month to answer a charge of careless and negligent operation after a witness to the crash told police Manchester was driving at a high rate of speed.
Police say alcohol is believed to be a contributing factor in the crash but no drunken driving charge has been brought. The investigation is ongoing and anyone with information is asked to contact state police at 773-9101.MORE IN This Just InNORTH BENNINGTON Two public meetings, in North Bennington and Shaftsbury, have been set for...

- all lowercase letters: A fair amount of character's names are spelled using only lower case letters at some point in the story.
- Curb-Stomp Battle: Pretty much any time the "good team" fights the evil forces.
- Dramatic Reading: By Man Without A Body, Part 1 here.
- Informed Ability: The whole point of the quest is to compile some kind of epic weapon to destroy the Drak/Dark Ones, but it isn't really ever explained why the weapon will help.
- New Powers as the Plot Demands: "Indian Jones" appears to have bottomless pockets that can hold flamethrowers and crystal skulls, and Gandalf can use all kinds of magic explosions. Also other examples.

Okay, so it doesn't have quite the same ring to it as "I'm f**king Matt Damon!" but, really, what does?
That Matt Damon has had a heckuva year. He lost a wife to a horrible virus that caused victims to seize up and foam at the mouth ("Contagion"), he bought a zoo (uh, "We Bought a Zoo"), he talked a lot of trash about the Bourne franchise in GQ, and his long-awaited film "Margaret" caused a stir among fans and critics who fought the studio for a wider release.
Now Damon has revealed his first casting pick for his directorial debut, and it's a goodie. Frances McDormand, who won an Oscar for performance as a pregnant crime-solving cop in "Fargo," is the first official cast member in the currently unnamed project.
McDormand's pedigree is as impressive and interesting as Damon's; she's a regular in the Coen brothers' movies (she »

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it's safe to say that Steve Buscemi is one of the most universally liked actors of this generation. He vivified Fargo, gave Ghost World a soul, lent Big Fish some quirky sincerity, ruled on 30 Rock (and Boardwalk Empire, I suppose), and even proved himself a viable proxy for Paul Lynde as the voice of Templeton in the Charlotte's Web remake. That's not an easy sneer to fill. But today we're talking about Buscemi's underrated work, the stuff that doesn't percolate with the grim vigor of a Coen Brothers classic. What's your pick? »

The film is directed by Tommy Wirkola (Dead Snow) written by Dante Harper and stars Jeremy Renner (The Town, Gemma Arterton (Clash of the Titans) and Peter Stormare (Fargo). We all know the story of Hansel and Gretel but what ever happened to the kids after they were kidnapped. Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters uses the German folktale to tale a darker story of revenge and explores the bond between two abused siblings that become blood thirsty. "Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters" takes place 15 years after the siblings' incident at the gingerbread house. The two are now specialized bounty hunters looking to put down the cackling black-hat set. »

In a new set of promos released by NBC, Steve Buscemi and Bill Hader ham it up to promote Saturday's (Dec. 3) upcoming "Saturday Night Live." Buscemi hosts and, as he repeats several times in the clip above, the Black Keys will be the musical guest.
Buscemi, the star of HBO's "Boardwalk Empire" and pretty much indie film royalty brings his own offbeat vibe to the promo process. In one, Hader asks him how he got his role in "Fargo."
"The Coen brothers saw me kill a man once and grind him up in a wood chipper and said, 'We have a part that's similar," says Buscemi.
In another he chases an animated turkey, mumbling about still having Thanksgiving scores to settle. In another, he and Hader get into a pretend fight about global warming. Finally, and we hate to mention it, Buscemi and Hader add a third person (of sorts »

D.J. Haza presents the next entry in his series of films to watch before you die...
Fargo, 1996.
Directed by Joel Coen and Ethan Coen.
Starring William H. Macy, Frances McDormand, Steve Buscemi and Peter Stormare.
Fargo is the product of the Coen Brothers and is apparently the telling of a true story. Macy plays Jerry, a financially crippled car salesman married to a woman with a rich and tight fisted father. In order to try and resolve his financial difficulties and find investment money for a new business venture he plans to have his wife kidnapped and her father to pay the ransom.
Jerry meets two criminals Carl (Buscemi) and Gaear (Stormare) who agree to kidnap his wife in return for a new car and a cut of the ransom money, but Jerry plans to raise a lot more than the original ransom fee. The two kidnap his wife »

Blood Simple Blu-ray MGM Home Entertainment 1984/Rated R/Running Time 99 mins List Price: $19.99 – Now Available Filmmakers Joel and Ethan Coen have spent the last 27 years flaunting traditional movie storytelling with such quirky fare as Raising Arizona, the Oscar-winning Fargo and No Country For Old Men and O Brother, Where Art Thou? 1984's Blood Simple is not only the film that put the writer/director siblings on Hollywood's radar, but remains one of their best nearly thirty years after its release. The film concerns Texas bar owner Julian Marty (Dan Hedaya), stewing over the recently discovered infidelity of his wife Abby (Frances McDormand) with bartender Ray (John Getz). Stung by the explicit photographic proof supplied by sleazy private investigator Loren Visser (M. Emmet Walsh), Marty retains Loren for yet another task, one that will end the affair permanently. Any further discussion of the plot would be futile. From that point, »

Clip joint goes square-eyed over the best TV watching clips in film
"It's got so bad that I've started to notice, the people on TV? ... Half the time they're watching TV."
A charming young man by the name of Kevin says these words in the trailer for Lynne Ramsay's brilliant new film. I'm not saying I agree with all of Kevin's opinions, but on this subject he does have a point.
TV-watching has become so common an activity that people can do it almost subconsciously. Everyone watches TV, even the characters we're watching. Yet their viewing is always a bit more exciting than ours. We watch TV to relax, but film characters always have a lot more at stake; often it's a breaking news report of some impending disaster. With them it's never just the Strictly results. This makes the following question all the more pertinent – to borrow from »

A sizable departure from his current role as Prohibition-era gangster Nucky Thompson in HBO's award-winning Boardwalk Empire, Steve Buscemi has been offered a major supporting role in upcoming comedy Burt Wonderstone. Buscemi's has been offered the role of Anton, a Las Vegas magician partnered with the title character, to be played by Steve Carell. The characters have a falling out, resulting in their partnership ending and Anton taking off to teach magic in the far east. The film will also feature Jim Carrey as an up and coming street magician who threatens Burt's dominance of the Vegas magic circuit, forcing him to try and reconcile with his former partner.
James Gandolfini (famed as HBO's other eminent gangster, Tony Soprano) also stars as the billionaire owner of the casino where all the magic happens, whilst Olivia Wilde and Sarah Silverman are both being considered for the female lead in the film. »

French filmmaker Xavier Gens' ('Frontiere(s)') new post-apocalyptic thriller 'The Divide' is set to hit Us theatres on 13 January 2012. This isn't fresh news but just exactly what version of the film that'll be entering theatres most definitely is. Anchor Bay have announced that Gens' full, unrated directors cut will be the edition that'll arrive in theatres early next year which is very encouraging. The footage omitted from various festival screenings over the Summer has been described by many as extreme. The movie itself set inside a high-rise apartment in New York city deals with 9 strangers thrown together in this post-apocalyptic nightmare and having to deal with ever-growing tensions and trying to come to terms with what horrors are occurring outside.

Not strictly horror but with a proper return to the silver screen by action and 80's sci-fi legend and ex-Governor of California Arnold Schwarzenegger, a thrilling plot and now the inclusion of Genesis Rodriguez ('Man on a Ledge', 'Entourage') in the cast list certainly deserves a mention here at the Horror Asylum. The movie 'The Last Stand' comes from 'I Saw the Devil' director Kim Jee-woon and the sexy Rodriguez (below) is on board to play an FBI agent. Jaimie Alexander ('Thor'), Forest Whitaker ('The Experiment'), Peter Stormare ('Fargo'), Rodrigo Santoro ('Lost') and 'Jackass' star Johnny Knoxville will all co-star in the movie expected some time in 2013.

Last week's rumors indicated that Michael Bay is, despite previous comments, making a return to the Transformers franchise for a fourth and fifth movie, which would be shot back-to-back. If you ask Bay, however, those aren't true; instead, the director — primarily known for his massive action spectacles — will be going small-scale next with Pain and Gain, something he describes as both "a very quick shoot and quite funny."
A script has already been written by Captain America scribes Stephen McFeely and Christopher Markus, and they managed to spill some information on the project to ThePlaylist. Saying that they're "cautiously optimistic," there seems to be an agreement between them that this will probably be his next project.
But, what caught my eye was their comparison to Fargo; the story, based on an actual event chronicled in The Miami New Times, follows two bodybuilders who get caught up in extortion and kidnapping, »

"Mothers come in for some serious savaging in Relatively Speaking, a reasonably savory tasting platter of comedies by Ethan Coen, Elaine May and Woody Allen that opened on Thursday night at the Brooks Atkinson Theater," writes Charles Isherwood in the New York Times, which ran May's interview with Coen and Allen last week. "Old-fashioned boulevard comedy — bright, easygoing fare that doesn't require the deciphering of plummy or crummy British accents — has more or less evaporated from the Broadway marketplace since the heyday of Neil Simon. Relatively Speaking brings back this once-popular genre in manageable bite-size portions, provided by starry showbiz names who sometimes seem to be channeling Mr Simon's gag-driven style. These plays are not going to do anything much in the way of reputation burnishing for their three celebrated authors — and certainly none is required — but they are packed with nifty zingers and have been directed by John Turturro »

Arnold Schwarzenegger's fast and furious return to the big screen is currently getting underway. The former Governor of California has targeted director Kim Jee-Woon's "The Last Stand" as his first star vehicle since returning to acting, and he won't be alone — he'll have some very notable co-stars joining him for the ride.
Oscar winner Forest Whitaker and "Jackass" host Johnny Knoxville have boarded the cast of "Last Stand," an impressive roster of actors that already includes "Thor" star Jaimie Alexander, "300" villain Rodrigo Santoro and the inimitable Peter Stormare of "Fargo" fame. Also joining the cast is Harry Dean Stanton, perhaps most recently best known for playing the creepy Roman Grant on HBO's "Big Love," but forever in my heart for his ill-fated turn as Brett in Ridley Scott's "Alien."
No specifics on who these new cast members are playing just yet, so we can only speculate for now. »

Hello narvaezj. Just curious why the two medications. reading up on ms cotin, I would think that the drug alone would help induce sleep. The mixing of these two drugs would I believe be very sedating, even dangerous, but I'm not a doctor, just surprised at the combination of the two.
thats not always the case. morphine does not make me sleepy in the least. ive had doctors give me shots of morphine and said ok you should be asleep in about 10 minutes and hour later im still sitting there. valium doesn either, but give me some non drowsy allergy meds and i cant hold my eyes open! weird, right? i know. a lot of meds just work opposite on me. we dont know why. so if the morphine doesnt cause drowsiness in the person may be why others might have been prescribed.

Top stories of '06 No. 4: Gail Gash pleads guilty
Published: Thursday, December 28, 2006 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, December 28, 2006 at 12:00 a.m.
After 21/2 years awaiting a trial, defending her son and gaining national media attention, Gail Hutchinson Gash surprised the community by pleading guilty to the murder of her husband, sparing her a possible life in prison sentence.
The Top Ten
Each day from Dec. 22 through Dec. 31, the Times-News is summarizing
the stories that made big news in 2006.
On Tuesday, Nov. 7, Election Day, Gash pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in the death of her husband, Donald "Don" Larry Gash, and was sentenced to 15 years in prison.
Mrs. Gash, 52, was arrested in 2004 and charged with the murder of her husband, a cattle farmer who had been the chief of the Etowah-Horse Shoe Volunteer Fire Department.
The couple's son, Donald Edward "Donn" Gash, 33, was named in court records as a suspect, was fingerprinted and ordered to turn over handwriting and blood samples. He was never charged.
In a telephone interview in April from prison in Raleigh, Mrs. Gash expressed concern that what worried her most was the news media coverage and "all the talk about my son."
"My son is innocent of any wrongdoing," Mrs. Gash said over a crackling phone line.
Mrs. Gash went so far as to give District Attorney Jeff Hunt her seal of approval before the May primary elections.In court papers filed by the defense, Mrs. Gash recounted to a psychiatrist a life of abuse, financial problems and psychological problems that led to the murder.

The dialectic of life

In the dialectic of debates about the extension of life, one witnesses a predictably repeating pattern: one side appeals to a motley of variegated criteria for something's qualifying as a living system, only to find an opposite side taking issue with the individual necessity or collective sufficiency of the proposed criteria. Some of these criteria tend to cluster with one another, while others do not: metabolism, growth and reproduction; self-organization and homeostasis; an ability to decrease internal entropy by the appropriation of free energy; stimulus response suited to self-preservation and propagation; and adaptation. In competing approaches to the extension of life, these sundry criteria thus jockey for authority, with one group of theorists promoting some subset of them as essential for life, where the appeal to essence is as likely as not to be a simple modal sine qua non, and another denying that the nominated criteria are really necessary at all. The debate then stalls, because there seems to be no shared methodology for adjudicating such disputes. We may address this unhappy situation successfully by coming to appreciate that life is what we may call a core-dependent homonym.

We examine the spatial pattern of woody species diversity at different scales, in two sites of Mt. Holomontas in northern Greece, which falls within the transitional zone between temperate forests and Mediterranean-type ecosystems. We investigate how diversity is distributed in space and whether the perceived pattern changes with the scale of observation. We use two different metrics of diversity: species richness and species turnover. Our main finding is that the spatial pattern of diversity changes with the scale of observation or analysis. For a given scale, the pattern of species richness (alpha diversity) is negatively correlated with the pattern of species turnover (beta diversity). Species-rich areas have more species in common with their neighbors than species-poor areas. The between-scale disparity of the spatial pattern of diversity may be a general feature of ecological systems. For this to be validated, studies with different groups of species in different biomes and in different biogeographical areas are required; our study contributes to this direction providing evidence that this holds true for woody species in Mediterranean communities. Finally, we discuss how these findings might affect important issues in theoretical and applied ecology, such as identifying the environmental factors driving biodiversity.

Mr Key told TVNZ's Breakfast programme that he was still
receiving good feedback from voters he had been meeting on
the campagin trail.
"The left has sat there and said, well we're not going to win
if we talk about the economy, law and order, health and
education, so let's illegally hack in to a computer and throw
some sort of bomb," he said.
He said that the inquiry in to Judith Collins' role in an
alleged attempt to discredit the former Serious Fraud Office
chief executive would take a long time.
Mr Key told Newstalk ZB this morning that he had received
some preliminary advice last night.
"I got some preliminary advice last night that raises a few
points that I need to dwell over and get a little more advice
on," he said.
The points raised were around the structure of the inquiry,
he said.
"Everybody accepts that essentially there's a version of
events that Mr Slater might be willing to put on things that
aren't necessarily right and I accept the same thing for
He said Ms Collins stood down as a minister because he
believed the inquiry would take longer than the three weeks
until election day.
He said that he was "100 per cent crystal clear and rock
solid" that he was not involved in the release of Official
Information Act documents related to the Secret Intelligence
Service to Cameron Slater.

The U.S. State Department is advising Americans to leave Libya "immediately."
In the new travel warning, authorities cite the "unpredictable and unstable" security situation.
They say because of security concerns the State Department has limited staffing at the Tripoli embassy. As a result, only very limited emergency services are available to U.S. citizens in Libya.
So far, the U.S. government has not called for evacuations of embassy staff. However, it was reported on Tuesday that a U.S. military amphibious warship was nearing Libya in the event evacuations are ordered.

Books Reading Today
posted by April 12 at 8:28 AMon
An open mic and a bunch of other things going on today in readingsville.
First, at the Washington State Convention & Trade Center, Frances Moore Lappe, author of Diet for a Small Planet, will read as part of the Seattle Green Festival, which takes place all weekend long. It will have significantly fewer funny costumes than SakuraCon.
Pari Noskin Taichert reads from her mystery The Sorocco Blast at Elliott Bay Book Company. Earlier in the day, the Seattle Journal for Social Justice will also be reading at Elliott Bay. Social justice is very important, but both of these readings bore the hell out of me just reading about them.
Also, up in the U District, Ann Bannon, the author of The Beebo Brinker Chronicles, will be reading in conjunction with a performance by the Seattle Women's Chorus. I write about Bannon and her wonderfulness in this week's Constant Reader. She will also be reading tomorrow.
And, at the ungodly hour of 9 a.m. (on a Saturday!) at the Seattle Art Museum, Riane Eisler, author of The Chalice and the Blade, will be giving a talk. She's here with her new book, The Real Wealth of Nations. This is a very smart lady, and this looks to be the most interesting reading going on today.
Full readings calendar, including the next week or so, here.
Also, if you haven't already, you should check out the nifty, brand-new books page, which has a ton more reviews and a mini-blog revue of the last week's books-themed Slog posts, over here.

Aging: The Paradox of Life
Why We Age
your country
For centuries people have been puzzled by the inevitability of human aging. For most of the second half of the twentieth century aging remained a mystery, or an unsolved biological problem. At the end of the 20th century a remarkable scientific discovery emerged. It was not a single discovery in the usual sense, because it was based on a series of important interconnected insights over quite a long period of time. These insights made it possible for the very first time to understand the biological reasons for aging in animals and man. It can already be said, however, that the many observations and insights that explain aging will not be accepted as established knowledge for a long time. The field is still full of scientists, and non-scientists, who are just happy to go on speculating about the "mystery" of aging. The aim of this book is to dispel ignorance by explaining in non-technical language what are the reasons for aging and the myth of excessive prolongation of life.less

I was disappointed with this hotel. Too much smell of cigarette smoke all over the main floor and up in the non-smoking 2nd floor hall.Security chain lock not there, dirty looking carpet. Parking lot not lighted for security around the side and back of hotel. The side door of hotel had no lock and swings open freely, even after 11 PM.

Delayed loading of Google +1, Twitter and Facebook social buttons on your posts. Have your cake and eat it too; social buttons and performance.
If you have any questions, we'd love to hear from you. Please visit and leave your question here http://inside.godaddy.com/onhover-activated-social-buttons/
To turn on lazy social buttons in the excerpt, navigate to Settings->Lazy Social Buttons and toggle the "Excerpt" option from Manual to Above or Below.
The Excerpt option is defaulted to Manual because it reportedly causes problems with certain CPTs. It was suggested that "Perhaps it would be useful for option to be added to select which CPTs will display the buttons and/or whether excerpts (or excerpts within widgets) will display the buttons." This is a good suggestion, and will be considered for future release. Release 1.0.7 is a hot fix to remedy the eminent problem by making the_excerpt an option.
If you want to add buttons to your template, say to make the buttons show up in your header, you can simply add the marked up DIV tag where you want it to go. For example:
<div class="lazysocialbuttons" data-float="left"
data-twshareurl="http://www.yourdomain.tld/" data-twtext="Check out my site"
data-shareurl="http://www.yourdomain.tld/" data-fbhideflyout="false"
Visit https://github.com/godaddy/lazy-social-buttons for a full list of the text decoration options.
There is a position option of Manual in the plugin, as of 1.0.5, which will make the social buttons not appear automatically above or below your posts. You don't need to select Manual to place the marked up DIV in your template.
Yes, please visit http://inside.godaddy.com/onhover-activated-social-buttons/ and https://github.com/godaddy/lazy-social-buttons/ for detail and source code.
Loading jquery from Google's CDN will boost performance because the likelihood of visitors already having it in browser cache is high. It also puts this common JS file on a CDN closer to the end user, which means it'll download faster.
The jquery CDN option is by default off, because it may cause problems with certain themes and other plugins that require a different version of jquery. I'd suggest that you turn this jquery CDN feature on and then test your site. If it breaks your site, turn it off.
The animated gif was made to display on a white background. If you are using a dark background, change the Lazy Social Buttons Background Type to dark in Settings/Lazy Social Buttons.

Katusha to get verdict on UCI license next week
Updated: February 8, 2013, 10:13 AM ETAssociated Press
LAUSANNE, Switzerland -- Russian team Katusha is presenting an appeal to sport's highest court after the International Cycling Union refused to grant top-tier status in 2013.
The Court of Arbitration for Sport says a verdict is expected next week. Katusha riders include the 2012 rankings leader, Joaquim Rodriguez of Spain.
The team's general manager is Viatcheslav Ekimov, the three-time Olympic champion and longtime teammate of Lance Armstrong with the U.S. Postal Service team.

This is the first work I've done with Illustrator (with photoshop to finish it up) and am kind of excited about it. I'd really like to turn this into a t-shirt design (the main image without the aged texture) so any advice on how to improve the main design would be MUCH appreciated. Paper texture on top is from and is much appreciated!
Awesome I love it !
oauuuuuu very cool i like so much
This is lovely.
I very much like this! Brilliant
Very cool
Friggin' awesome! Will you do this to more Kubrick movies?
I have actually been tinkering with a design for The Shining featuring that great hexagonal carpet design in the Overlook Hotel. I think Kubrick movies lend themselves really well to things like this because the man had such a great eye for color, framing, etc.
Nice. -- Big Kubrick fan and a fan of you design style for this.

President Kennedy 1961 Inauguration Highlights were shown of the 1961 inauguration of President John F. Kennedy courtesy of the Senate Recording Studio. The event took place on the steps of the U.S. Capitol before a large crowd. Two of President Kennedy's best-known phrases come from his inaugural address: "we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship..." and "ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country."
Highlights included the arrival of the Kennedys at the Capitol, the Marine Band playing "America the Beautiful," an invocation by Cardinal Cushing, Marion Anderson singing the National Anthem, a prayer by Archbishop Iakovos, the swearing-in of Vice President Johnson administered by the speaker of the House of Representatives, prayer by the Reverend John Barclay, the swearing-in of President Kennedy by the chief justice, the inaugural address, a benediction by Rabbi Nelson Glueck, the inaugural luncheon, and parade. close

Acting Mayor Tom Carney (and Concerned Delray Citizens):
Mr. Carney's campaign communications seem to indicate he has been a Contract Bidding "watchdog" for Delray taxpayers since the $65M No Bid WM fiasco. His actual record herein will show he has been more of a "lapdog" for the special interests.
(1)- Last month, the Commission approved a $95K annual beach raking contract even though the City's Park and Recreation Dept. bid the contract, vetted the bidders, and recommended that the City engage a new contractor for $57K annually. Mr. Carney's justification– he tosses out the lowest bid and he publicly states Joann Peart (the existing contractor) is his "friend". And just a month after the contract award, Ms. Peart repays Mr. Carney by holding a campaign function/rally for him in her home!
Let's put this in perspective. For something as mundane as beach raking, Delray taxpayers are paying a 66% premium. That is equivalent to paying $6.50 for a gallon of gas today when the market rate is now $3.90! Would any sensible car driver do that?
(2)- Last April, former City Manager Harden exercised the City's option to extend the beach cabana rental contract for 3 years without the approval of or informing the Commission. TV Channel 12's " Waste Watch" segment exposed Harden's malfeasance and confirmed that the City is losing $80K annually. Mr. Carney neither publicly reprimanded Mr. Harden nor required that the contract be bid (which still can be done).
Why? Probably because Mr. Carney's friend and supporter (Andre' Fladell) has a personalized, reserved beach cabana! I can forward you a photo of Mr. Fladell's personal cabana if you like!
To me, these are two expensive "friendships" which cost Delray taxpayers $118K (38 + 80) annually and $354K over the 3 years of the contracts. With $118K annually, the City could finance $1- 1.5M for beach replenishment– funds the city is now desperately seeking!
Perhaps Mr. Carney needs "friendships" because PUBLIC RECORD indicates he may be experiencing some personal financial difficulties. He purchased his $465K residence last July and apparently needed his 85 year old father to co-sign on the $372K mortgage. Mr. Carney signed for his father by means of a Power of Attorney (POA) which had expired before the closing. Wouldn't one think a 58 year old, self-proclaimed successful businessman and attorney shouldn't need his father to co-sign for his home let alone with an invalid POA?
The false propaganda, withheld facts, and misrepresentations in Mr. Carney's campaign mailings and robo phone calls go unchallenged and nauseate me. They are contradicted by public record. I want the Mayoral campaign to be run truthfully on the facts.

Hi Guys just wanted to let you know that Jani G and Aaron Darko just launched his latest product 1 Cent FB Clicks and now everyone has the chance to secure his spot in the members area. They are now accepting students at the promo price of 47$.
You Can Become a Member Here <<<—-
If you really don't want to miss the chance to be coached by two of the most trusted marketers out there you can do so by clicking the link above. The promo price of $47 is not going to be valid forever. Jani Said he will be increasing the price to $997 in the next couple of hours and after a certain number of students he is also closing the doors because he can manage only a limited number of students.
Many have asked me why Jamie is Increasing the price, well the number one reason he has decided to do so is that he only wants to work with serious people and to prevent Third world country people from abusing his unique system and wasting his time.
So if you really want to build a real online business this is your chance to start with only $47 and learn from one of the best marketers out there.
Click here to secure your spot <<<—–
This program also comes with a 60 days money back guarantee so you have nothing to lose. The only thing to I suggest is to act fast and secure your spot while the promo price is still valid.
As you can see from the video here Jani is not lying about his money he has made online. Just check it for yourself while the video is still online.

This paper proposes a novel fuzzy identification approach based on an updated version of pi-sigma neural network. The proposed method has the following characteristics: 1) The consequence function of each fuzzy rule can be a nonlinear function, which makes it capable to deal with the nonlinear systems more efficiently. 2) Not only each parameter of the consequence functions but also the membership function of each fuzzy subset can be modified easily online. In this way, the fuzzy identification algorithm is greatly simplified and therefore is suitable for real-time applications. Simulation results show that the new method is effective in modeling and controlling of a large class of complex systems
