Vote for the CenterFebruary 24,2014Vote for the Center
Since 1998, the Castleton Community Center (The Old Homestead) has provided programs and services to help improve the quality of life for residents of western Rutland County. The Center helps seniors and disabled residents remain independent. Over 4,800 rides were given last year for doctors appointments, nursing home visits, adult day care, therapy, food shopping and senior meals. In addition, over 1,400 meals were served in our dining room to seniors from Castleton, Fair Haven, Hubbardton and surrounding towns.
The Center offers health and fitness education, a walking trail and exercise programs to promote healthy living. Educational and recreational activities keep our seniors active and help improve the quality of life for them and their families. Our summer camp for children provides stimulating educational and recreational activities for children when school is not in session.
The Castleton Community Center does not receive United Way funding. The Center is supported through town appropriations, grants, fund raising special events and the hard work of our members and volunteers.
Castleton, Hubbardton and Fair Haven residents, please vote yes to support the valuable programs and services offered by the Castleton Community Center at the polls Tuesday, March 4. If you need a ride to the polls call The Center at 468-3093.

I have a conditional function that displays content on certain pages, but not on others. It works on some of the sites I have that are using plain old fashioned templates. However, some of the sites are using Thesis and it's not cooperating.
Note: the IDs used are just examples, not the same on every site giving my this headache.
"Display static front page" will be set to Page ID 16. OK, everything UNTIL the sidebar recognizes that the Page's ID is 16. Then we get to the sidebar, and, suddenly, $post->ID is 63. ???
So, I tried using
get_queried_object() which worked pretty well on *some* of the Thesis based sites, but now I have one which returns null in the sidebar. The content works just fine, but the sidebar insists there is no queried object (although $post->ID is still 63).
I should add that I don't like Thesis and avoid working with it as much as possible, so I may just have a fundamental misunderstanding of how this templating framework works.

You know what they say about the definition of insanity...it's doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.
I guess that's why I should just rip the name off my blog altogether or broadly generalize it.
First some context...one thing you should know about Microsoft is that the company is constantly in a state of flux. A good % of people here have the job they are in for approximately a year, then move on to another role. Perhaps over and above that, groups reorganize roughly every year to 18 months. So if you're trying to work with Microsoft on a business development deal or if you're working for a vendor company trying to sell something to Microsoft, you're probably just as likely to get someone learning his/her job as you are someone thinking about his/her next job. It's funny how that works but I find it's actually effective.
In that spirit...about a month ago I was approached to take a new job on the same team to manage Microsoft's business value messaging for the web stack -- our tools, technologies, platforms, services, etc. It's a broader role than what I have been doing as Expression business manager although I will continue to work on Expression quite a bit. The goal is for us to better communicate the variety of web offerings we have so companies of all sizes (startups to large enterprises) can at least understand what we have & how to incrementally add to it to achieve business results (improved efficiency, more opportunities, lower total cost of ownership, better reliability, higher profit, etc.).
To give you a better idea of the problem, look up "Microsoft Web Technologies" on a search engine and see what exactly comes up. If you're anything like me, you're probably going no further.
So I promise you simplicity...I also promise that we'll market the right parts of the web stack to the right customers. If something doesn't make sense to a particular market segment, we're probably not going to spend a lot of time adding that tool/technology to the value proposition. The right tool for the right customer in the right environment. That's the philosophy.
In the meantime, if you have any ideas of what I should name my blog, please let me know...I'd like to stop changing the name of my blog every time my responsibilities change ;-)


text: I'm sure that the instructions for this are listed somewhere, but I just can't seem to find them. I've installed Xampp Lite and got a copy of WP running on my local machine, but my live blog has been going for a few months. Can someone point me to the instructions for copying my live DB into this local one so I can have a local copy of the blog? Thanks!

Purchase orders – what we're up to
We did a small update today, but since there were no big headline features, I thought I'd give an update on where we're at with the much requested purchase order functionality. It's been keeping a large part of our core team busy for the last few months. We haven't often pre-announced features like this before, so keen to know whether you find this useful.
Purchase Orders is a large chunk of functionality and while developing them we also took the time to improve a number of big items behind the scenes we haven't touched for a while. These libraries will be used in other new features we have coming up and you'll see the benefits later in the year. From time to time we have to do these projects. However we've made good progress and I thought I'd give you a walkthrough of what to expect when we do release (we're aiming for late September/October at this stage).
So what can you expect?
Enhanced dashboard and list screens
From the purchase dashboard you will be able to view a summary of all your purchase orders and create new ones. Like bills, you can click through to view individual POs and perform bulk actions like approving, printing, emailing and deleting.
Building a purchase order
Building a purchase order is very similar to creating an invoice. You select a supplier and enter the lines of the order. You get all the same invoice features like multi-currency, access to inventory items and choosing a branding theme (see below). You also get to specify a delivery address and instructions. This address could be your organisation's physical or postal address, a previous delivery address or even a one-off address specific to this order.
Branding a purchase order
Out of the box a purchase order, when printed to PDF, will inherit your default standard theme and logo. However, like invoices, you can create a specific theme just for purchase orders. If you choose to create a DOCX theme you can go to town to customise exactly how you want your purchase orders to appear to your suppliers.
Creating bills from purchase orders
You can easily create a bill from an existing purchase order. Doing so will copy the contents of the purchase order into a new bill.
You are then free to edit the details to match exactly what is being billed but, through history and notes, you'll be able to trace back to the underlying order.
We've actually built a generic "Copy-to" function that allows you to copy a purchase order to not only bills but also to sales invoices (useful if you're going to on-sell the goods to another party) and to another new purchase order.
Purchase order statuses
A purchase order can be tracked against a number of status.
- Draft – initial status
- Awaiting approval – similar to how invoices work
- Approved – similar to how invoices work, not everyone can approve purchase orders.
- Billed – used when a purchase order has been fully billed. This can happen automatically, when you copy the purchase order to a bill or be set independently.
Designing for touch
Xero works pretty well on iPads and other touch devices, but there's more we can do. In purchase orders you'll see a number of changes to the designs that are a direct result of thinking more about fingers. There's more white space in the new data entry grid, row heights have been increased on drop-down lists and we're even introducing some responsive screen widths.
We are so committed to this that all our designs now have a large shadow hand as a reminder that the finger is the future!
Not in the first release
There are a few things that won't be in the first release but are being considered (but not guaranteed!) for future releases – let us know what you think.
Online purchase orders – similar to how you can send your customers a link to an online invoice.
Linking an existing bill to an existing purchase order – if different users independently create these documents you should still be able to link them up. In the first version, we are relying on you creating the bill from the purchase order in order to make the connection.
Importing purchase orders via CSV file.
Bulk copying multiple purchase orders to a single bill.
- Receipting – as is currently the case, and even when POs are introduced, inventory quantities are only recognised once a bill/sales invoices has been raised. We aren't currently planning on receipting items as they arrive.
What's next?
A lot of the investment in the new touch-friendly screens will be reused when we deliver Quotes. Ultimately, we'll also roll these updates across the bills and sales invoices.
To compliment the work in purchase orders we also have the early designs for enhanced inventory functionality which we'll be presenting at the upcoming XeroCon events and on this blog later in the year.
Exciting stuff and more than enough to keep us busy!

You know – at the rate you guys are going – Xero is going to become a fully fledged ERP solution.. invoicing, payroll, inventory, purchasing – all we need now is asset management & maintenance… !! You guys are 3/4s of the way there 😀
Love the work!! I standby my position that Xero is by far the most user-friendly system I've dealt with.
please oh please oh please do something similar with invoices and give us an ESTIMATE to use instead of just draft invoices.
I agree 100% with Kevin above, this is the same for invoices. I want it to go back to the page I was in, not the approved bills or invoices… Could Xero please explain the process logic with your method?
Will it be possible to send the PO out as attachment in the email? Also Xero not set up for a large amount of RCTI , and can't even send out a Purchase invoice, a bit annoying.
I am excited and relieved to see this new PO functionality and eagerly await the launch. A daily chore for our storeman is to chase up supplier orders not yet received. It is essential for us to be able to easily identify received orders and not yet received orders. Some systems I have seen enable you to send an email to the supplier requesting order status with one mouse click, no need for typing. We would like a couple of order status fields to enter an ETA and courier tracking number. This will enable us to respond to a customer quickly and professionally if they call chasing delivery. I would like to see additional tabs on the "Purchase Orders" screen after All, Draft, Awaiting Approval, Approved and Billed with "Received and Not Received". If the ETA and tracking information was also visible from the Not Yet Received Tab this would enhance functionality.
Hooray, the amount of time I spend raising PO's in a Word template then re-key the same information into Xero when the invoice arrives. Can't wait.
Good Morning, Am excited about purchase order ability. Can you please advise if you can split a purchase order i.e Purchase order has 100 items and we recieve 50 on one and 50 at a later date. Will this then keep purchase order open to recieve remaining 50. Will there be a reporting function on open purchase order status. Many thanks Deanne
For businesses such as mine who need an inventory system and use Unleashed to feed in to Xero- will Xero PO's be able to be distinguished from Unleashed PO's? I ask because currently, there is no way of distinguishing Unleashed credits from Xero credits when viewing these in Xero.
This sounds really good.
Do you intend on having inventory management functionality similar to that of Unleashed?
In response to your reply about the reference field, this does not seem big enough or the appropriate location to store the supplier work order number, tracking number and ETA.
Can you please confirm whether the inventory item will now have an additional field to cover the suppliers part number? We need to specify the suppliers part number on all our PO's. I imagine we are not alone with this requirement.
I'm glad to hear that POs are imminent. Xero already stores both the Sales price and Purchase price in Inventory Items. It would be so useful to have a button in a Draft Sales Invoice to transfer the items and purchase prices to a Draft Purchase Order and it would save us so much time. All we would need to do then is select the supplier and remove the line items which weren't being shipped from that particular supplier.
Also, when creating a PO from a Draft SI, it would be good if we could have a check box, "Ship direct to customer" to allow the supplier to be sent the customer's address for delivery.
There's a common question on this thread as to whether there will be the ability to run reports in reference to Purchase Orders.
I'm presuming (…particularly hoping) a user will be able to run reports on the Purchase Orders (commitments) created?
what date is the release? i have clients wanting to return to their previous software
Can you provide an indication how far away the PO function is please. We have a company that currently does not use Xero, but the PO functionality would make it very attractive.
At month end, will it be possible to accrue for issued purchase orders where the bill is not yet received?
Will the Purchase Order be available through Xero API immediately upon release?
Will the PO functionality be rolled out to the global version as per the estimated Oct 2013 timeline or will this be a limited release?
Any updates on the purchase order functionality? We are considering switching to Xero after a recommendation from a colleague, but need this functionality to be in place before we make the switch.
I am so glad to hear that PO's are getting very very close. This function is certainly a very important one for our business and its driving us and suppliers bonkers not having the functionality of being able to raise a PO. As someone has mentioned it is also important to be able to search a customer address for "drop shipping" when placing a PO and also being able to specify a different invoice address so that customers do not receive invoices for drop shipment. Being able to have more than just a single physical and postal address on a saved customer file or the company would be extremely helpful. I am also hoping and assuming that there will be an Automatic PO numbering system rather than having to manually enter a number each time there is a new PO?
I strongly second everything Paul has said above. The ability to generate POs, alternate addresses and automatic PO numbers will be a massive help. Rather than having to use a separate tracking system for POs as we do now and then manually enter them into Xero with all the chance of human error that entails.
Hi Guys… Im gagging for this release, hugely disappointed to see above you think its now been pushed back again! This might seem a silly question, but Im assuming that if you are adding PO functionality you will also have a basic stock control, i.e under inventory items, when you receipt a PO as having been delivered it will add the qty's to the inventory items record? I guess its a silly question, but I couldn't find it discussed here and currently I don't see where in Xero you can see what you actually have in stock… I know this is a part of many add ons but all that Ive looked at are just too complicated for the basic functionality I'm sure a lot of us are looking for. Keep the updates coming… Cheers…
Will there be functionality within the security area to limit users being able to only raise PO's as opposed to raise and authorise?
I just started a paid account hoping this feature would be available once id activated. It still isnt available in my app. Very confusing!
would be awesome to have a "create purchase order based on Sales order" button on the Sales order screen.
Would save a heap of rekeying etc for companies that run a drop ship method of distribution
A client has been using QB Enterprise, but is looking to possibly moving to the cloud because one of their offices will be moving an hour away. They use purchase orders in QB. Will monitor release of p.o.'s in Xero to see if he can wait until they're ready and move to Xero. He does about 200 p.o.'s a week. Thanks.
Great to hear purchase orders very close – do you have an updated ETA
Really keen to be able to get line items from sales feeding into purchase orders
In our business sales to customers drive need to purchase stock so be great not to have to go backwards. Rachel
Awesome news PO – update from the Xero Roadshow, Brisbane, yesterday believe is "that close" many of my clients will be jumping for joy.
Please tell me how soon this is as we are about to buy an add-on. We need this as a matter of urgency!
Hi Xero,
Great news things are moving on the PO front, is there any chance this will be done and live this side of Christmas,.
I've repeatedly told my CEO it's on its way and I would like to be able to give him some better news, i.e it is in and working.
Hi, I'm new to Xero & Loving it so far. I want to say a great effort by all involved!! Well Done.
I'm interested to know if Quoting will be released this side of the new year?
We have been using a competing product for a long time, and have been ready to switch to Xero since we first saw it. Lack of POs as a core function are the deal breaker though. It doesn't make sense for us to switch systems only to use work arounds for such an important feature. I hope it is still a high priority.
"Receipting – as is currently the case, and even when POs are introduced, inventory quantities are only recognised once a bill/sales invoices has been raised." Sorry i am a newbie evaluating a new system. The lack of reciepting at Good-In seems bizarre. This means the system is not ISO13485 , ISO 9001 compliant. We need to know what has arrived and obviously only send to Bill what is correct and present. We also need to send the goods to a correct warehouse location. Perhaps I have misunderstood?
Can't wait for inventory lite , please hurry
@Andrew – Hi, any idea when Contact address selection for Ship To address will be available? Almost ALL our purchase orders are delivered direct to Customer.
I appreciate that once an address is used, it is then stored, so rather suspect that by the time this is released it will be a case of locking the stable door after the horse has bolted! 🙁
Will these previously used addresses be stored against a reference; e.g. Customer name?
Hi Andrew – just reading the thread again and noticed comments by someone else. Are you saying that the PO will not have any Stock implications at launch ie. the products on the PO will not show in the inventory list as 'on order'? And if this is correct, please can you say how long it will be that the tie in between PO and Inventory is done. I think this is very important for us. I beleive in the Xero project as the one more SaaS focused, but Quickbooks has all this functionality now and more. I just worry the latter is too split on their focus to their desktop customers.
I really need to hear (and i am sure i speak for others on this thread) that Xero is going to beef up their inventory and supply side to their offering and fast. Can you help out a little? Thanks,
Andrew -sorry one more question.. I have also seen that Quickbooks have an integration with Magento that allows 2 way syncing. This is important particularly for payments so that the accounts team can enter a payment in Xero and it appears in Magento (since that is the master). The Carry The One integration looks very good for Xero but it does not have this 2 way feature. Can you tell me if this is a restriction from Xero on their API or if this is something that integrator apps could later add? Thanks.
@Andrew, our accountant and myself have been trying to convince my director to move from MYOB to Xero for a long time now, I now have everything set up and was planning on a 1 November start date for switching alliances 🙂 One question though. Being able to create quotes, purchase orders, select the delivery address from customer list, invoice from purchase order, backorder to a new purchase order when the original one is not sent in full, and use multi currency, etc is very important to us. Can you please suggest some good add ons that I can use to stick to my 1 November date? We do about 250 purchase orders/sales a month.
Andrew Tokeley

That's right Gillian – no promises, but we're looking good for a November release!
So you have slipped? I held off buying the add-on in October …. Please be realistic on your dates (I know from bitter experience!).
SUGGESTION: As a stopgap can you not just add the ability to print a draft purchase invoice as a purchase order (I print draft sales orders as a PROFORMA invoice? That would help me! Anyone agree?
@Andrew – thanks. So what if you have Xero, Unleashed and then Magento. Which system is the master? Will payments in Xero reflect elsewhere? I prefer to have staff use Magento for SOP as it works and has superb granular access permissions, and we have experience taking orders on it. We dont see any reason to restrict access to online customers. We want to allow internal staff to orders. This will be pushed int Xero. We dont need any pick/pack functionality from Unleashed as we have written our own brilliant pick/pack/despatch App which integrates with magento API and has touch screen, scales and barcode reader to ensure items are packed properly with Xero mistakes. So really the only reason to buy Unleashed would be to issue a PO and manage stock – no sales orders, no despatch. Seems like a huge waste of time and money to get Unleashed when Magento is nearly there.

Enterprise Software
In NATO, the United States coordinates with 27 other member nations. A new intranet project aims to improve collaboration for as many as 10,000 users.
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization is undergoing a "cultural shift" toward using IT that encourages intra-organization collaboration, says Rickard Hansson, whose Swedish software firm just won a NATO contract.
The 28-member collective security organization will deploy Incentive Corp.'s intranet software over three years, reaching up to 10,000 employees, the firm said in announcing the deal.
"What we've done is simply to focus on creating a distributed software. That means it's your own requirements that decide security," Hansson, Incentive's chief executive and founder, said in an interview.
The software includes wikis, blogs and apps that can be hosted behind a firewall or in the cloud. It allows employees across an organization to share their work and compile project ideas. The product is "off the shelf," Hansson said – a common boast in the software industry to describe a product's instant applicability, and a trait that he said suits NATO well.
The security organization has an ambitious timeline for rolling out the software to top officials within months. According to Hansson, the software doesn't require much training to use and NATO has yet to request customized features, which could speed deployment.
Another reason NATO chose Incentive's software, according to a company spokeswoman, is the firm's plans to support WebRTC, an inchoate open-source API standard that facilitates videoconferencing, instant messaging and other real-time communications.
Incentive, which has offices in Malmo, Sweden, and Los Angeles, has been mostly focused on small-to-medium sized business, but its work with NATO could mark a shift to bigger public-sector clients, Hansson said.
The firm is banking on the notion that strict security requirements and a platform for sharing information across a large organization are compatible. The firm stores an organization's data in a private cloud that even Incentive employees can't access. That may have been what persuaded NATO to choose the software and, Hansson hopes, what prompts other government organizations to follow suit.

Upset by FCAT Rules? The Ledger Wants to Hear From You
Published: Tuesday, April 23, 2013 at 11:53 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, April 23, 2013 at 11:53 a.m.
The writer of a letter to the editor Tuesday raised an interesting complaint about how the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test is administered. In an emergency situation – fire, tornado, etc. - teachers are instructed to secure the tests first before taking action to protect themselves or students.
We've previously heard many complaints about FCAT rules that teachers said seemed silly or even counterproductive.
Now, we're giving you a chance to sound off. If you are a teacher, administrator or other person who went through training and administered the FCAT during the past two weeks, let us know about any rules you found aggravating, pointless or worse.
Please, limit your complaints to the rules and regulations involved in giving the tests, not other problems you see with the FCAT or with personnel. We will withhold your identity. We will work to verify that the rules complained about are accurately described.
Contact reporter Jeremy Maready at firstname.lastname@example.com or 863-802-7592 by noon Thursday.

I will check and let you know if I find old version.
Care software without USB is not available anymore as I know, you can use old Care version like Car 5 or 7 ( I am not sure of it), but you need license anyway .
I think mandrake is correct , I also never see XBS w/o occub schd , may be it's better to change xbs version.
I did not understand exactly what u need , the time schedule is done thruogh DDC and stored at DDC , so u can log inside DDC and store the new scheduling , and the XBS will show it.
but I did not...
can u senm me copy with great thanks
here also control icon
Here is RACL
You can use SLTA, to Lon but u will see points through lonmaker but u can't reprogram them.
If u want to program them u need to have Care and serial port to DDC
do u have Care software , or don't , what system do u have
send me email explaining ur problem
Attached is care sample for 2 Valves and sensor
try the following :
use advanced search for EBI
there are other documentations for EBI but the files are many, pls let me...
1- you connect to the controller i.e Excel 500 thourgh RS-232 serial and there is an icon connect (you should have configure your connection com 4 or 3 ...).
2- care is easy software , so you should...
No, I don't have the files , but the programming which I need is simple I just want the VAV to be controlled through heat sensor (S-Link) , and to be heat/cool.
it's depend on the tybe of senosr , i.e when use NTC 20 , you can go let say 20 Kohm and you should compare reading with the sensor to know the difference before doing offset or calibrating.
I don't think that they will get accrate reading , it's will give them indication of airflow but not exact flow
what u need exactly
I managed to work on snvt hvac_emerg_cmd through LON Maker but it only opens the VAV , that's I need the WPT to have full control
No, I am with the contractor , the problem that the building conisits of large numbers of VAVs but they need only to change these 20 programming, since he will need to change TAC BMS also.
As for...
I have MN VAV qty20 , and I need to reprogram them , I know that I need workplace tech (version 4 or later) but unfortuately I could not get this software , anyone can help me with it noting...

Millions of Christians have decided that the Bible is out of date. They've decided that the words of Jesus aren't always true. The Foundations—Ken Ham's signature DVD series based on 30 years of ministry—reveals the alarming state of Christianity today.
Get ready for an amazing underwater adventure! The hard-working Wild family is joined by missionary friends for some restful "down time" at a nearby island's tropical shoreline. However in true Wild family style, the boys (and their parents) soon set out to discover new things about God's creation.
What is the truth about global warming? Are the ice caps melting? Will polar bears and penguins soon be found starving on small floating icebergs? Does the future survival of man hinge on an immediate reduction in carbon emissions?

ATLANTA (AP) - Backers of a bill that would boost electric bills
for Georgia Power customers say it will actually save consumers
money over the long haul.
The legislation would allow Georgia Power to begin collecting interest early for the construction of two new nuclear reactors at Plant Vogtle near Augusta years before the construction is completed. It would add an average of $1.30 a month onto customer's bills beginning in 2011.
The bill's sponsor, Sen. Don Balfour, told a Senate panel "one way or another" consumers will foot the bill. He says paying the interest now will mean they will pay some $300 million less on the $14 billion project.
Consumer groups are expected to speak up against the bill.

A Middleboro man has died from wounds suffered in a stabbing late Tuesday outside a factory in North Plymouth.
Scott Allen Megquier, 25, died Wednesday at South Shore Hospital, a spokesman for Plymouth County District Attorney Timothy Cruz said.
Bridget Norton-Middleton said Megquier was found unresponsive and bleeding outside Richards Micro-Tool at 250 Cherry St. late Tuesday night. He was taken to the hospital suffering from multiple stab wounds and died after emergency surgery.
Police said Megquier was found by a co-worker beside a vehicle in the company's parking lot.
Norton-Middleton said State Police detectives assigned to the district attorney's office and local police detectives are investigating and awaiting autopsy results to determine the manner and cause of death.

Police shoot and kill armed man near Capitol
Published: Wednesday, July 15, 2009 at 7:42 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, July 15, 2009 at 7:42 p.m.
WASHINGTON (AP) A chaotic scene unfolded near the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday after police shot and killed an armed man in what authorities described as a routine rush hour traffic stop that turned deadly.
U.S. Capitol Police spokeswoman Sgt. Kim Schneider said the unidentified 35-year-old man refused to stop at the checkpoint about two blocks north of the Capitol complex. The man drove the wrong way down a street and struck two officers with his car one on foot and the other on a motorcycle, Schneider said. The two officers received minor injuries.
Police opened fire after the man brandished a handgun and refused to put it down, said Schneider, who described the melee as "very fast moving, very fluid."
"The officers felt they were being threatened they were in fear for their lives," Schneider said.
She did not know if the man fired at police first. District of Columbia Fire Department spokesman Pete Piringer said the man was being taken to a hospital. It was not clear where he died.
The late afternoon scare occurred as lawmakers were wrapping up a third day of hearings for Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor. Police briefly sealed off part of the Capitol as a precaution, but the buildings were reopened about a half hour later. Authorities said the shooting was not related to the Capitol complex.
"We hear pop, pop, pop, like a gun," said Carol Lanigan, of Toledo, Ohio, describing how she saw a white car come flying down the street with two police cars behind chasing it.
She said she heard about four or five shots.
"There were so many gunshots being fired my family got down," said Robert Drumm, a tourist from Oklahoma who was visiting the nation's capital with his family.
Drumm said he saw someone being taken away in an ambulance. He said he first noticed trouble when he saw one car speeding and being chased by a police vehicle.
Numerous emergency vehicles converged quickly in the area.
Another witness, Dale Lanigan of Toledo, Ohio, described a similar scene, although he said two police cars gave chase.
As the car went past him, Lanigan said, "the driver had one hand on the wheel and it looked like he was reaching for something."
Lanigan said he then heard shots and police ordered him to get away.

It all started when my children coaxed me to download the App, "Words With Friends" on my cellphone. What a neighborly sounding game it was! A few clicks and voilà! -- suddenly it was just as I remembered from my own childhood -- except you could take all day long to formulate one word and nobody minded.
We set out to find the 10 best channels for kids on YouTube; we wound up with 12. Along the way, we learned a lot, laughed out loud, and fell in love with what YouTube -- at its best -- can bring to your kids. (We estimated age targets and recommend you watch with your kid to familiarize yourself with the content.)
There is still one realm where we are ahead of our kids, and that's in "life skills," which are sorely needed--believe it or not--in digital spaces. These life skills include things like kindness, respect, and thoughtfulness, and they're considered skills because in the old days, we actually learned them by observing the behavior of the adults around us.

His whole life had been about being an artist and about teaching art to others. Then, it all became a blur. Details of a scene disappeared, and outlines turned into grays.
In December 2004, Ray Gerring, 79, became legally blind.
Gerring had been a relatively healthy man in his retirement years, mentally and physically active.
With the loss of most of his sight, Gerring began a journey into depression.
There were the times when June, his wife of 58 years, would see him sitting with his head in his hands. There were the times he would cry. There were the times he'd get angry over something minor.
"It'd be something like knocking a glass of water over, and I couldn't even see to clean it up," Gerring said. "She had to clean it up.
"It'd just destroy me. I'd get so angry. I was like a crazy person."
In his retirement, he had been doing what he loved so much, which was to paint.
The creative pull "is so compelling that eventually it becomes stronger than the fears of uncertainty and lack of confidence."
Marcia Appleton, supervisor of social services for the Community Services for the Blind and Partially Sighted in Seattle
Over the years, along with his work as a commercial artist and advertising-agency art director and 24 years as an art instructor at Seattle Central Community College before retiring in 1988, he had always painted.
Then the ailments of age caught up with him.
It was on a spring day in 1994 that he woke up on a Saturday, opened his eyes and went into emotional shock.
"What my left eye saw was like some crazy stained-window mosaic, like shattered glass," he said.
Gerring got the diagnosis, and had to make adjustments for loss of depth perception, but he still could paint. Then, in December 2004, the same happened to his right eye.
Gerring said he estimates his left-eye vision at 10 percent of what it used to be. His right eye is better, testing at 20/400, but it still means he's legally blind.
He was prescribed antidepressants.
"I didn't have the patience to take those drugs," he said. For a while, much of his day was spent sleeping.
But he always had emotional support from his wife, three grown children and friends.
Gerring suffers from central retinal vein occlusion - a blockage of circulation that drains blood from the retina - which occurs with much higher frequency in people 65 and older.
"It sends folks on an emotional roller-coaster ride," said Marcia Appleton, supervisor of social services for the Community Services for the Blind and Partially Sighted in Seattle.
But what happens, said Appleton, is that the creative pull "is so compelling that eventually it becomes stronger than the fears of uncertainty and lack of confidence."
In March 2005, Gerring happened to be in his studio when he picked up a jar of acrylic paint. He did some dabbing.
"Hey, I think that works as abstract painting," he thought to himself. The abstracts wouldn't require the fine detail of his earlier works.
Now, he sometimes paints an inch away from the canvas, using everything from his fingertips to brushes to rags.
In November, Gerring had a show at the Arthead Gallery in Wallingford, Wash. Three of his paintings were sold.
One of the gallery's owners, Bill Wikstrom, said of Gerring's work, "It's bold and bright and comes from somebody who understands color very well."
Gerring's paintings have been accepted by a committee that selected art for a two-month show to be scheduled for 2007.
Sometimes, Gerring still has to face the demons of depression. He then often goes to his art studio.
"You can feel something happening and my mood changes," he said. "I hope this doesn't sound corny, but it's like the paintings have this spirit."

I am about to teach a class with a laptop attached to a big screen.
I wish to have the mouse bigger, and with some yellow marker on it.
What (free) software is good for that (for windows) ?
ZoomIt allows you to to draw things and zoom on your screen whatever program you are using.
If you choose a lower resolution while presenting, you will also get a bigger mouse.
If you are using Powerpoint slides, you can write on the slides with a pen.
I would suggest walking to the back of the class before a lesson to see how big the mouse really is...
A Freeware software does indeed exist to create custom mouse pointers.
Its called Real World Cursor Editor and here's the article through which I found this free utility.
The site also features custom cursor gallery, you can have a look if you find something useful.
Control Panel : Mouse : Pointers : Browse... and select a .cur file that you like.
I think these are actually .ico files and if so you should be able to edit them with Microsoft Paint.

Easter Brunch on Wolfgang Puck's Veranda
Easter has been a special holiday for restaurateur Wolfgang Puck since his boyhood. "When I was growing up in Austria, [Easter] was the beginning of spring, really," he says. "I like snow and cold and everything, too, but after four months, it's enough."
While his restaurants typically offer big Easter brunches, Mr. Puck adopts a simpler approach in his Beverly Hills, Calif., home. "I used to do a big Easter brunch, and then it got so big that I said, 'We're going to have to open a restaurant' " in the house, he says. "If you have to hire help, you might as well do it at a restaurant," he says.
These days, Mr. Puck keeps his parties to just 12 adults and their children. He gets up at 7 a.m. on Easter morning, has breakfast with his family and then gets to work on the food, which, naturally, is his focus. "I really don't like when people spend too much time on decorations and not enough time on the food," he says. "When you sit down, the food has to be great."
Mr. Puck typically makes one large egg dish—a frittata or strata filled with vegetarian ingredients such as roasted onions, potatoes, goat cheese and sundried tomatoes—and serves it alongside platters of smoked salmon, smoked sturgeon, prosciutto, ham and salad.
Along with the food, Mr. Puck sets out wine and champagne. "It's always an occasion when you pour champagne," he says.
The food is usually set out, family-style, on a long table that seats 16 on Mr. Puck's outdoor veranda. Mr. Puck says he generally leaves it up to his wife, handbag designer Gelila Assefa, to drape a yellow and white tablecloth over the table and set out plain yellow and green plates. "I like it really clean and elegant," he says. "I don't like it when the plates have things all over them." She does add some small decorative touches, such as bouquets of white tulips for the adults' table and chocolate bunnies for the children's table.
A key goal for Mr. Puck is to have all the food prepared when guests arrive. "I don't want to have people feeling guilty that I'm spending all this time in the kitchen while they're eating," he says. He makes a point of being ready to greet his guests in a casual outfit.
When everyone has eaten, the real festivities begin. Mr. Puck, who has four children ranging in age from 3 to 20, usually organizes an Easter egg hunt in his garden. "Easter is really a holiday for children," he says.
