J.W. Anderson x Versace Versus Capsule Collection
30 November 2012, 16.57 | Posted in Designer Collaboration, News | No comments »
It has been announced that Donatella Versace has selected British designer J.W. Anderson as the first person ever to work on a capsule collection for the label's more youthful line, Versus. The decision to restructure the brand into a design laboratory came when Christopher Kane left his position as creative director for the brand. As far as we know the line will include men's and women's clothing as well as accessories to be unveiled next Spring, probably March or April, in New York.
We'll of course keep you posted.

iCal won't sync from iPhone to Mac
Currently Being ModeratedNov 7, 2012 9:30 AM (in response to rorygilmore)
OK... i really don't have time for the twenty steps including looking for applications that I don't have (iSync). I plug my iPhone into my MAC and it syncs... but it doesnt
it only syncs random calendar items. I don't need to reboot the whole thing... I just need it to work, and while trying to do various options listed here.... i now can do NOTHING at all and eveyrhting on my calendar is now gone.
So if I seem ungrateful, ******, short, it's because I am !
why doesn't it just sync properly?
Currently Being ModeratedNov 8, 2012 3:37 PM (in response to artaddict)
Because something is wrong - something you clearly don't have the time to find out why and fix, so don't expect anyone else here to give up their free time to assist you either.

Thank you but no thank you... all the methods listed here not only DID NOT fix the problem, (and I did invest 3+ hours) but they made it worse....
One 15 minute visit to the Apple store and all is well.... next time I will avoid listening/reading to the "know it alls" that don't and go to apple where they are nice, kind, don't make things worse, or make me feel stupid or ungrateful.
FYI all of the solutions listed here were not the solution that Apple had... infact it was 3 little steps... no saving files, looking for libraries or any of that...
So, lesson learned.... just go to apple.

Hi Pumpkin,
I have had this problem - my fix was to connect my iphone 5. Then open itunes and then click the "info" tab.
Where it says Sync Calendars check that box and then check the "selected calendars" circle and then check every calendar inside the square (i.e. Calendar, Home, Work,). Then hit the Sync TAB at the bottom right of the window. It worked for me. I think the "all calendars" switch doesn't work - checking all the possibilities and the "selected groups" switch worked for me.
My iphone 5 and MacBook Pro Calendars now sync perfectly. NB Without i cloud being activated.
Good luck.

Thanks, rorygilmore! I was having the same problem with my new iPhone 5 (OS 6.0.1) and my MacBook Pro (OS 10.6.8). I spent several hours at the Genius Bar...no one could fix the problem. I came home, found your solution, and it worked!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Currently Being ModeratedDec 1, 2012 8:18 AM (in response to Pumpkin4)
It's not going to be over-the-air sync, but at least it's a reliable calendar sync.
I have an iPhone 5 running iOS 6.0 and an iMac running Mountain Lion 10.7.4
By turning off calendars in Settings>iCloud on my iPhone, I was successful in transferring events from my iPhone to my iMac (I just used the generic "Calendar" rather than "Home" or "Work" to keep all events on the same calendar). Once done, you'll have to hardwire sync your iPhone and iMac the old-fashioned way. Not convenient because you need your fancy new cord to connect your phone to your computer, but at least the information is transferred.
PS: Apple, I'm not psyched about buying multiple cables to charge my iPhone (upstairs), sync my iPhone (in the office), and keep it charged on the fly (in the car). Had syncing in fact WORKED via iCloud, I wouldn't be so annoyed. But now, I need to buy at least two new lightening to USB cables to RETAIN the syncing/powering capability I had with the iPhone 4s.
Currently Being ModeratedDec 1, 2012 8:28 PM (in response to Pumpkin4)
hi guys,
maybe someone can help me. I tried the suggestions before (steps 1 to 7, although I had to reset my sync history using command line), but it is not working. I mean, I create an event in iCal and it syncs to the iPhone. But, when I create an event in the iPhone it does NOT sync to the iCal. The suggestions had an improvement in my case, since I was having duplicate entries in the iCal, but not anymore.
I am running Snow Leopard (10.6.8) and iOS 5.1.1. Again, when I create an event in the iPhone it does NOT sync to the iCal.
Can anyone help me?
Currently Being ModeratedDec 4, 2012 10:42 AM (in response to rorygilmore)
Same issue here. Followed these steps but my export file (which I re-imported) was empty because calendar is now blank. I also have my google calendar on here but it won't sync now. There were many many files in the Library/Calendar folder so I renamed them all to start with OLD_
I think I have an icloud account because I had an old mobile me account. I never used mobile me and don't want icloud. I have MacBook on OSX 10.6.8 and not excited about paying too upgrade to mountain lion and encounter even more issues.
Currently Being ModeratedDec 5, 2012 8:14 AM (in response to Pumpkin4)
I just upgraded to itunes 11. I have had this calendar synch problem every time I update either the imac OS or itunes. Each time I have successfully implemented rorygilmore's fix (thank you rorygilmore!). Since I recently upgraded the imac to Mountain Lion, I have the 90 days of tech support included with the upgrade purchase, so I called them to see what apple had to offer me (and us). Turns out, it's very close to rorygilmore's fix - at least if you don't use icloud, which I don't. This is what I got - after 2 hours and 3 techs - so I thought I'd share it with y'all:
Unplug iphone if connected.
First, back up Contacts by opening Contacts, doing a File -> export -> contacts archive (I just saved to desktop). Quit Contacts.
Back up Calendar by opening Calendar, doing a File -> export -> calendar archive (I just saved to desktop). Quit Calendar
Then, use this knowledge base article for your OS:
Mac OS X: Resetting the SyncServices folder
Once those steps were followed, I had to connect phone to imac and go back to itunes Info tab under the iphone, and be sure that the synch categories were checked off for calendars, contacts, and bookmarks, and then run a synch. The tech told me I didn't need to check synch mail accounts (it was grayed out). There was no info from apple as to a permanent solution, so I anticipate this is going to happen each time I update. My friend who uses icloud doesn't have this problem, but plenty of people here apparently do even with using icloud.
Still not happy with apple for not fixing this!
imac (2009) 10.8.2, itunes 11.0, iphone 4 ios 6.0.1
Currently Being ModeratedDec 30, 2012 10:43 AM (in response to rorygilmore)
Ok, I admit that I'm nervous about reseting my sync history. After following the first two steps and clicking "reset sync history," I get a warning that this action would restore to factory settings. Wouldn't that restore everything – not just iCal – to the factory settings? Sorry if this duplcates queries from other nervous users.
Currently Being ModeratedJan 7, 2013 8:50 AM (in response to artaddict)
I'm having the same problem. Running Lion 10.7.5 on my Mac, trying to sync all calendars to my iPhone 5. Only some calendars sync, and only part of the time. I've check and re-checked settings on both, and I'm not sure how I can fix this. I'm wondering if the suggested solutions will work for Lion? I don't want to start deleting folders if that will create more of a headache than I presently am dealing with.
Currently Being ModeratedJan 7, 2013 9:01 AM (in response to rorygilmore)
Will this work the same way with Mac Lion 10.7.5 and iphone 5? iCloud settings are turned off on my phone, and I would just like to keep it simple and sync ical on my Mac to my iPhone 5 via cable. Not all calendars are showing up on my iPhone 5 after a sync through iTunes via cable.
Currently Being ModeratedJan 8, 2013 9:21 AM (in response to lma29)
Thanks Ima29. The solution you wrote fixed my issue w/ my iPad & iPhone calendar syncs not showing up on iCal. Once I dragged the calendar folder to my desktop and reopened iCal, the correct sync'd calendar from the iPad and iPhone immediately appeared. Thanks again for the simple solution! I did want to add that I had to be in the finder mode and then hold the "option" key while clicking "go" in order to locate the correct "library" folder. Additionally, when the new iCal appeared, I deleted the 2 default calendars that appeared. Once that happened, the calendar from the iPad and iPhone appeared, in it's entirety. I ran a few sync tests between the computer and my iPad & iPhone, all syncs went well. Then I trashed the old calendar folder from my desktop. Problem solved. (: thanks again!
"Sometimes the calendar folder is corrupt so you have to create a new one.
Library, calendars, drag your folder to desktop to save a copy in case it dosent work and create a new calendar folder..."

China's relatively benign manufacturing data triggered little reaction from Asian markets on Wednesday, but analysts said the real story was the substantial fall in new factory orders, which they believe has the potential to trigger stimulus action from the government.
China's official Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) for April dipped to 50.6 from a March figure of 50.9, according to data from the National Bureau of Statistics, missing a Reuters forecast of 51.0. A figure above 50 indicates expansion, while sub-50 number shows contraction.
(Read More: China Factory PMI Raises Doubts About Economy's Strength)
The surprise fall didn't alarm the market watchers CNBC spoke to, but they expressed concerns over a sub-index measuring new orders, which fell from 51.7 in April to 52.3 in March, its lowest level since January.
"The headline figure was pretty much the same as March, but that is not the main story," said Alistair Chan, economist at Moody's Analytics. "The biggest surprise drop was in new export orders which showed a lot of manufacturers are experiencing a slowing in export sales."
Chan said the upshot was that China's government was now more likely to implement stimulus measures, which could lead to a bounce in China's economy late this year.
Evan Lucas, market strategist at IG Markets, said the dip in the new orders suggested that China still faces headwinds from Europe's debt crisis.
(Read More: Why China Market Bulls Aren't Surrendering)
"It is another bit of skepticism on Chinese growth. The drop in new orders... reflects the softness coming from China's biggest trading partner Europe," he said.
"This could probably increase the likelihood that China will stimulate, which could explain why the Australian dollar traded slightly up following the announcement," he said. The Australia dollar is especially sensitive to economic data from China, its biggest export market.
Beijing has implemented a slew of stimulus measures since later 2011 to avert a hard landing, including two interest rate cuts and three reductions in lenders' reserve requirement ratios (RRR). The government also unleashed a $157 billion infrastructure stimulus package late last year to keep the economy chugging along.
There has been no major stimulus since, and experts believe any further boost from the government will come in small doses.
(Read More: Has China's Economy Hit a 'Dead End'?)
"We could see more monetary stimulus like more bank lending, the approval of more public infrastructure projects and potentially the easing of restrictions in the housing market," said Chan.
Already, in mid-April, the banking regulator relaxed rules of bank lending to local governments in a bid to boost economic growth.
"We have already seen an increase in bank lending which is a sign that the government is concerned about weak growth," said Chan, who forecast China's economy to grow 7.9 percent this year.
Analysts have been growing increasingly concerned about outlook for China's economy after its 2012 growth of 7.8 percent was the weakest level since 1999.
First quarter gross domestic product growth was also disappointing, coming in at a worse than expected 7.7 percent, down from 7.9 percent in the previous quarter. At the weekend, data showed China's industrial companies had grown by around 5 percent last weekend, markedly below a 17 percent rise in January and February, casting worries over the health of Chinese industrial sector.
A slowdown in China is a worry for investors worldwide, especially as other major economies and regions including the U.S. and Europe are showing signs of slowing. Last Friday U.S. GDP logged 2.5 percent growth, below expectations of 3 percent. The euro zone economy shrank 0.6 percent quarter on quarter in the last three months of 2012.

Coretta Scott King Book Donation Grant
2012 Winner(s)
Morton School of Excellence (Chicago, IL)
The Morton School of Excellence, located in the Garfield Park neighborhood of Chicago's West Side, is a once-struggling K-8 public school whose recent turnaround has earned the attention of local media outlets. Nearly 100 percent of Morton's students are low-income, and 97 percent are African-American. While the school has made tremendous strides in improving math and science performance, it is currently focused on improving reading levels through its newly refurbished library. "A truly excellent school has an active library that encourages students to become hungry, consistent readers," said Kristy Reiger, Library/Media Specialist. "I see the CSK books as a way to meet their emotional needs."
Perris Library (Calif.)
The Perris Library in Riverside County, Calif., serves a diverse community of 69,000 hard hit by the economic crisis. The local unemployment rate in Perris is 20 percent, with 16.4 percent of families living below the poverty line, almost twice the national average. As the economic woes in Perris persist, its citizens are relying on the library more than ever, even as it faces drastic budget cuts that limit its ability to expand collections to reflect the community's diversity. Perris has long had a large and dynamic African-American community, which the library supports through maintaining a collection of materials by African-American authors. "Budget cuts and attrition have, however, weakened it substantially," said Thomas Vose, branch manager. "An infusion of new books would spark new interest."
Prentiss Public Library (Miss.)
The Prentiss Public Library serves Prentiss, a small, economically-challenged rural city in Southern Mississippi where 34 percent of residents live below the poverty line. As the economy has worsened, this majority African-American community has been especially hard-hit, with crime on the rise and low employment levels. "Providing its service community with literature to promote literacy is a core responsibility of the library," said Youth Services Librarian Ryda Worthy. "However, the residents of Prentiss do not merely need quality literature. They need to be inspired and motivated by positive images of fellow African-Americans. Every single child attending public school in Prentiss is eligible for Title I free lunch assistance. We feed their bodies, now we need to feed their spirits."

PUNTA GORDA — Authorities say an elderly couple was found dead following a Southwest Florida house fire.
The Punta Gorda Fire Department reports that police initially responded to the home Thursday, and the fire was already out with firefighters arrived. The Herald-Tribune reports that rescuers found the elderly couple inside. Their names weren't immediately released.
Officials say the fire might have been caused by electrical problems, but that hasn't been confirmed.
Fire Chief Ray Briggs said there were no working smoke alarms in the home.

A win would have made the SSHS hoopsters the HDL's runner-up and had the local club at home for the first-round of the playoffs. The Cougars have been to the playoffs four times but were on the road each time.
The loss means the Cougars are the HDL's third seed and will travel to play Sierra League runner-up Carson in the first round of the regional tournament Feb. 14.
"The loss was tough tonight," Spanish Springs coach Christine Eckles said. "We knew what was at stake and one of our season goals was to host a first-round playoff game, so obviously none of us are real happy right now. But there is still more basketball to play so we've got to bounce right back and get after it."
The margin was four, with Reno leading 16-12, less than a minute into the second quarter. That came after Spanish Springs got a driving layup from Lyndsey Anderson.
But that's also where the game began to slip away from the visiting Cougars. Reno reeled off a 22-7 run through the final seven minutes of the second period. That momentum swing gave Reno a 38-19 halftime edge.
The hosts got a huge boost from senior sharpshooter CC Sobrio, who drained all five of her treys before the intermission and had 17 points after two quarters. She finished with a game-high 20 points.
"CC hit some big shots and it's no secret she's capable of doing that," Eckles said. "Reno executes really well. You have to be disciplined defensively and sometimes you have to pick your poison because they can score from all five spots on the floor."
Spanish Springs scored the first six points of the third period thanks to some full-court pressure, but Reno adjusted and still wound up winning the third quarter 13-11.
The Cougars got started off on the right foot in the fourth quarter as well, stringing together a modest 7-0 run to initiate the last period. Freshman MorningRose Tobey drained a 3-pointer to cap the quick Cougars' burst and make the score 51-37.
Unfortunately for the guests, Reno (23-4, 13-2) responded again. It answered with a 12-3 spurt and sealed the win, which gave the Huskies the HDL's No. 2 playoff seed and a first-round home playoff game next week.
Reno's only losses this winter have come to top-ranked and defending state champion Centennial and second-ranked Reed, twice to both.
Reno won the rebounding battle, 39-30, but did turn it over 22 times to Spanish Springs 17. The Huskies shot 20-50 (40 percent) from the field while the Cougars were 19-55 (34 percent).
"Those numbers are similar to the first game we played against them," Eckles said. "We forced more turnovers and got more shots. But Reno makes open looks and we need to make more if we want to beat them."
Hannah Woytek and Tobey paced the SSHS offense with 18 and 14 points respectively.
In addition to Sobrio's big night, Reno got three other players in double figures. Shannon Gough had 13 points, Morgan McGwire 12 and Shalen Shaw 10.
Spanish Springs (19-7, 11-4) wraps up its regular season Friday night at Hug.

Venusaur hit the jackpot in Generation V, as it received Chlorophyll from the Dream World, making it a dangerous offensive threat under the sun, even in Ubers. Growth also provides a +2 boost to both Attack and Special Attack in the sun, which means Venusaur's offensive stats will both skyrocket to over 500 with just one use of Growth. With Groudon reliably providing everlasting sun, all Venusaur needs is one turn of setup to wreak havoc with its boosted attacks. Access to Sleep Powder sets Venusaur apart from other Chlorophyll users such as Shiftry, making it much easier for Venusaur to set up. Venusaur's Poison typing also allows it to absorb Toxic Spikes, letting it support the rest of its team while also maintaining a strong offensive presence. Unfortunately, it isn't all sunshine and happiness for our giant plant monster; weather changers that can instantly remove Venusaur's valuable sunlight are prominent in Ubers. Moreover, Venusaur's offensive stats are simply not good enough for it to significantly damage titanic walls such as Lugia, Ho-Oh, and Giratina. Its STAB attacks are also resisted by Dragon- and Steel-type Pokemon—two of the most common types in the tier, most of which can sponge even boosted hits. Despite these flaws, Venusaur is not to be underestimated; with the proper support, it can mow through entire teams with ease.
With Growth and Chlorophyll doubling its Special Attack and Speed, respectively, this set utilizes the sun to its full capacity. After one Growth, Venusaur reaches 656 Special Attack, allowing it to strike on the opponent's team for high damage. Sleep Powder makes Venusaur a frightening setup sweeper, as not only does it shut down its counters by putting them to sleep, but it also grants Venusaur an easier time setting up. Venusaur's main attack and STAB in Grass Knot hits very hard due to the vast amount of heavy Pokemon in the Ubers metagame. In fact, after a Growth, Venusaur can OHKO max HP Normal Arceus that has taken Stealth Rock damage. Sludge Bomb provides great overall coverage and a secondary STAB, OHKOing Manaphy and Rayquaza after a Growth, whereas Hidden Power Fire snipes the Steel-types that usually counter Venusaur, such as Ferrothorn, Forretress, and Skarmory.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Venusaur can run a mixed set very well; Growth doubles both its Attack and Special Attack under sun, enabling it to hit hard with a greater selection of moves. After a Growth, Venusaur's Attack and Special Attack jump to a sky-high 446 and 598 respectively with the given EVs. STAB Grass Knot and Sludge Bomb give it coverage on many common threats in Ubers, and are Venusaur's most powerful attacks. After a Growth, Grass Knot OHKOes Groudon and Kyogre with ease, whereas Sludge Bomb maims the Dragon-types that resist Grass Knot, as well as OHKOing Shaymin-S. Earthquake offers excellent neutral coverage along with Venusaur's other moves, smacking the Steel-types that resist Venusaur's Grass STAB and are immune to its Poison STAB, such as Dialga. Sleep Powder can be used over Sludge Bomb for an easier setup, but Venusaur will miss out on a significant degree of coverage.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
With a powerful STAB of Seed Bomb, Earthquake to hit grounded Steel-types that sponge its STAB, and Sleep Powder to incapacitate the opponent and nab it a free turn of setup, Venusaur makes a fantastic Swords Dance user. Sleep Powder sets Venusaur apart from the other run-of-the-mill Chlorophyll users, and becomes massively useful with BW's sleep mechanics: Venusaur can come in, put the opponent to sleep, and set up Swords Dance with impunity. Seed Bomb is Venusaur's most powerful STAB attack, decimating anything that doesn't resist it. After a Swords Dance, Seed Bomb OHKOes Kyogre and all but the most defensive variants of Groudon. Earthquake complements Seed Bomb nicely, as it hits the Dragon- and Steel-types that resist the former move very hard; specifically, it 2HKOes Dialga and Steel Arceus after the boost.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
Sadly, Venusaur does not have many other options. A set featuring Substitute, Sleep Powder and Leech Seed can be used, utilizing Venusaur's Speed in sun, but Venusaur is just not bulky enough to utilize it. There are other Hidden Power types that can be used on the Special Growth set: Hidden Power Rock can be used to OHKO Ho-Oh at +2, and Hidden Power Ground can be used to hit Dialga, but the coverage they provide is very shallow. Moreover, if you want Venusaur to be able to get past Dialga, it's better to use the Mixed Growth set. Energy Ball can be used to hit the lighter Uber Pokemon, such as Manaphy, but Sludge Bomb hits hard enough, and in Manaphy's case, it OHKOs at +2. Outrage, Giga Drain, Leaf Storm, and Power Whip are unfortunately illegal with Chlorophyll.
Checks and Counters
Sleep Powder allows Venusaur to set up on its counters, thus making it very hard to defeat. However, it is very inaccurate, making it a somewhat unreliable method to get past counters. Extremely fast Choice Scarf users, such as Mewtwo, Darkrai, and Shaymin-S, outspeed Venusaur even after the Chlorophyll boost and strike very hard with their STAB moves. Strong priority moves, such as Extreme Killer Arceus's ExtremeSpeed or Scizor's Bullet Punch, wear down Venusaur easily, whereas Thundurus's Prankster Thunder Wave hinders Venusaur, as even in the sun Venusaur's Speed will be a half of its original Speed.
The Giratina formes completely shut down Venusaur, as they resist both of its STABs and are extremely bulky. Moreover, both can phaze Venusaur with their STAB Dragon Tail, whereas Giratina-O, who is also immune to Earthquake, can easily OHKO with a Draco Meteor. Choice Scarf Kyogre changes the weather, outspeeding Venusaur as Chlorophyll is canceled, and OHKOes with a super effective Ice Beam. Rayquaza is faster due to Air Lock which cancels the effects of the weather, and OHKOes with Fire Blast, V-create, Outrage, or Draco Meteor. Ho-Oh and Lugia resist Venusaur's Grass STAB and can tank a boosted Sludge Bomb due to their extremely high base 154 Special Defense, though the former needs Stealth Rock off the field to counter Venusaur reliably. Latias needs Psyshock or a few Calm Mind boosts under her belt in order to counter Venusaur, as Venusaur strips off 57.69% minimum with a +2 Sludge Bomb, and Dragon Pulse is not wielding an OHKO.
The Special set is fairly hard to stop, as Grass Knot hits extremely hard, and Sludge Bomb provides great neutral coverage. Heatran and Dialga are not only immune to Sludge Bomb and quadruple-resist Grass Knot, but they are also able to put a stop to Venusaur's sweep with their STAB moves. Chansey and Blissey can tank even a +6 Sludge Bomb, which does 50.62% - 59.81% to the former and 62.26% - 73.31% to the latter, and procceed to stall Venusaur with Softboiled, Wish, and Seismic Toss. If they have been put to sleep by Sleep Powder, Natural Cure awakens them as they switch. If Hidden Power Fire is used over Sludge Bomb, Dragon-types such as Salamence will wall this set, as they can easily OHKO Venusaur with a Fire Blast. If Hidden Power Ice is used, Steel-types can tank Venusaur's hits with ease.
The Swords Dance set is easier to stop, though you must be wary of Sleep Powder, as you do not want your counter to fall asleep. Skarmory, Bronzong, and Scizor put a full stop to it due to their Steel-typing, and can hit back with their STAB moves. Ferrothorn and Forretress can only beat this set if they carry Gyro Ball or Thunder Wave, respectively. Grass, Bug, and Flying Arceus resist Seed Bomb and Earthquake (Flying Arceus is immune), can Recover the damage, burn Venusaur with Will-O-Wisp, or put an end to its sweep by using Flying Judgment or Ice Beam. Tornadus and Shaymin-S also fall in the same boat as Flying Arceus, easily OHKOing Venusaur with their Flying STAB moves.
Tyranitar deserves a mention for changing to weather to sandstorm, but aside from that, it can do nothing. +1 Grass Knot in sandstorm does 83.16 - 98.01% to max HP and Special Defense Tyranitar, landing an OHKO after Stealth Rock damage, while Fire Blast will not OHKO Venusaur. If Earthquake is not present in Venusaur's moves, Dialga stops it cold. The rare Metagross can take anything bar a +2 sun-boosted Hidden Power Fire, and can strike very hard with its STAB Meteor Mash or Zen Headbutt. The former will OHKO Venusaur if Choice Band is used as the item, whereas Zen Headbutt will always OHKO. Hitting fast is recommended, as once Venusaur sets up a Growth or a Swords Dance, it will hit extremely hard.

The CI probably transitions to clay a short distance out side of your foundation.
Lakee, I hate to say this but I'd see about getting a camera over there to have a look see at this line and locate your points of interest as well as inspect the balance of the line.
It's called working smarter not harder!
Use a banded coupling that is properly sized for the 4" to 6" transition.
Also make sure that part of your work is installing an outside cleanout that can run in both directions... essentially opposing wye's and 45's to the surface.

American Eagle loss disappoints BIA passengers; Airline to end service in November

Jacqueline DiPinto flies into Bangor International Airport every year to visit her family in Rumford, but that may not be the case next year.
Ever since American Eagle began its jet service at BIA in 1999, DiPinto has flown from her home in California to the airport, but she refuses to make the last leg of her trek, from Boston to Bangor, in a turboprop plane. She said the turboprop engines are noisy the entire flight, there is no room in the cabin, and the plane flies so low it makes her uncomfortable.
When American Eagle discontinues its service at BIA in November, it also will end the only jet service between Bangor and Boston. Delta Airlines is the only other BIA carrier that flies to Boston, but in April, the airline replaced its 50-seat regional jet with a 19-seat turboprop plane.
"I don't know what I'll do," DiPinto, 67, said. "If I can't get here with a jet, I'll be in trouble. They are making it too difficult for older people to travel. As we get older, we lose our comfort zone when flying."
American Eagle, the regional American Airlines affiliate, announced on Tuesday that it will terminate its service at BIA on Nov. 5. At present, American Eagle flies three flights a day during the week to Logan International Airport in Boston and one flight a day to LaGuardia Airport in New York City. On the weekends, the airline flies to Boston four times a day and to New York twice.
In addition to the lost air service, Bangor will lose 89 jobs as a result of the cut.
American Eagle employees at BIA would not comment on Wednesday.
Gail Zuck was at BIA on Wednesday flying on American Eagle's scheduled 12:20 p.m. departure to Boston and said she was disappointed by the airline's decision to pull out of Bangor.
"We've always been the end of the road; it gets better and then it all changes again," said Zuck, 60, of Bangor.
Despite the announcement on Wednesday that said a low-cost carrier would bring limited nonstop flight to Orlando, Fla., area travel agents say the airport needs to do more to make up for the loss of American Eagle.
"We're still going to need someone else to give a few more options," said Donna Demmons, a travel consultant for All About Travel in Bangor. "I think they still need to do more work to get more seats with availability going to different destinations."
We Recommend

Delta will utilize a 19-seat turbo-propeller plane in place of the 50-seat passenger jets that have to date flown the route from Bangor to Boston.

Four out of five adults experience back pain during their lifetime. The problem becomes chronic for five to ten percent of sufferers. Back pain can result from being overweight, sleeping on an uncomfortable bed, or incurring an injury. The best way to alleviate back pain, according to Timothy J. Gray, DO, in his book Back Works, lies in a solid exercise program.
Our body's core consists of all the muscles in the stomach, the lower back, and along the spine and hips. These muscles work together to maintain a strong trunk and provide a stable base from which movement occurs.
We have no bones in the abdominal area. Because this cavity is supported only by the muscles that cover it, strong abdominal muscles are a must. (They also give the appearance of a smaller midsection.)
The abdominal muscles are a group of four different muscles. One rests in the center of the stomach. Another runs around the stomach, holding it in place and supporting posture. The remaining two muscles cross over each other along the sides, as if they are inserting themselves into our front pockets and back pockets. To prevent back strain, it is important to keep these muscles strong.
According to a study published in Diabetes Care in March of 2005, a twice-weekly workout program decreases abdominal fat in older men with type 2 diabetes. Whenever muscles are challenged to improve, the body's metabolism speeds up. The faster the metabolism, the more weight loss occurs. This is good news for people trying to remove abdominal fat in an effort to reduce back pain.
A proven tool in strengthening the core is the stability ball. The stability ball activates the core in every movement, creating improved posture, less back pain, and a flatter stomach. Because the stability ball challenges the muscles to maintain their alignment and hold the body upright, its greatest benefit is the balance factor. Using the ball also helps build postural endurance.
Stability balls go by many different names, including fitness ball, exercise ball, and Swiss ball, but they are all the same. Most health clubs have these colorful balls available for use. The manufacturers also vary from those who provide commercial grade balls to those who supply them for at-home users. The main difference between these two is the maximum weight that the ball will support.
It is important to use a ball that is designed to hold your body weight and is appropriate for your height. As a general guideline, for those under 5 feet tall, a 45 to 55 cm ball will provide the correct base. For those between 5 and 6 feet tall, a 55 to 65 cm ball will provide the correct base.
If a ball does not list its dimensions, you can gauge whether it is the proper size by sitting on it. While sitting, the angle of your hips and the angle of your knees should be 90 degrees. If your knees are bent too much, the ball is too small. If your knees are too straight, the ball is too large.
One of the greatest benefits of improving core strength is that the results are seen quickly. After only a few workouts, you will begin to perceive enhanced stability around your spine, which will improve your posture, assist in lifting activities, and reduce back pain.
When you become more attuned to feeling the muscles of your core, you will notice them in your everyday movements, such as turning the steering wheel of your car, closing the refrigerator door, reaching for a book, or rolling over in bed. Another nice benefit of core strengthening is that you will feel like holding your stomach in, which will instantly make your stomach appear to have lost inches.
Exercise Guidelines
Sit on the ball and walk your feet forward until the ball is beneath the small of your back. Place your hands behind your head or crossed on top of your chest (easier option). Press your lower back into the ball. Exhale and curl your rib cage towards your pelvis. Inhale and release to starting position. Repeat for each repetition.
Ab Roll
Kneel in front of the ball. Touch the ball with your legs. Place your hands in a prayer position. Place your fingertips on the part of the ball closest to you. Inhale and roll the ball away from your body, using your arms to guide it. In the extended position, slightly lower your hips towards the floor. At this point, only your hands will be touching the ball. Exhale and roll the ball toward your body to return to start position. Repeat for each repetition.
Jack Knife
Kneel on your hands and knees over the top of the ball. Walk your hands away from your body, rolling the ball toward your feet. Straighten your legs with the ball positioned between your knees and ankles. Exhale and bend your knees, rolling the ball toward your chest. Inhale and release the ball to start position. For an increased challenge, straighten your legs and raise your hips toward the ceiling while rolling the ball toward your chest. Repeat for each repetition.
Leg Lift
Lie face down with the ball in the center of your abdomen. Place your hands on the floor and straighten your legs slightly so your toes touch the ground. Exhale and lift one leg to hip level. Inhale and lower the leg to the floor. Repeat the lift with the opposite leg. Repeat for each repetition. For a more challenging exercise, lift both legs at the same time.
Spinal Balance
Lie face down with the ball in the center of your abdomen and with your hands and knees a shoulder-width apart on the ground. To maintain this position, you may need to adjust the ball size accordingly. Keep your spine in a neutral position by holding your abdominal muscles tight. Slowly raise one arm while raising the opposite leg to hip level. Return to the starting position and repeat, using the other arm and leg. Concentrate on reaching away from your body through your fingers and toes. Repeat for each repetition.
Lie face down with the ball in the center of your abdomen. Straighten your legs behind your body and press your toes into the floor. Begin with your arms straight out in front of you. From this starting position exhale and lift your chest off the ball while keeping your arms in the same position. Inhale and return to the starting position. Repeat for each repetition.
This core exercise program can be repeated every other day for a maximum of three times a week. Remember to take a day of rest between workouts to allow for muscle recovery. With consistent practice, you will see results within six weeks.

"Ibaka (14.2 points, 8.7 rebounds, 2.4 blocks) should be getting more All-Star buzz than he's received"
Why should he be getting All-Star buzz? Does the Western Conference now get something like 8 or 9 slots for "front court"? Or is a sniper going to shoot out the knees of... let's see... Aldridge, Love, Griffin, Howard, Duncan, Lee, Randolph, Davis, and Cousins? Or perhaps the Thunder will trade him to the Knicks for Chandler, and then the Pacers' team bus will collide with Bosh's SUV while he was carpooling with Lebron. Yep. That ought to do it. I think that Ibaka can probably make a case to beat out Jonas Valanciunas and Andrea Bargnani for a spot on the Eastern Conference All-Star team, as long as the Pacers and Heat are both out.

Theatrical-Release: 1968
Studio: MGM
Director: Norman Taurog
Producer: Douglas Laurence
Film Length: 90 mins
Colour/B&W: Colour
Greg - Elvis Presley
Bernice - Michele Carey
Mike Landsdown - Don Porter
Penlow - Rudy Vallee
Elvis plays a young photographer with two jobs: one as a photographer for a conservative publisher, Rudy Vallee, and one as photographer for a girlie magazine, published by Don Porter.
It's funny seeing Elvis running around, up and down staircases to divide his time between the two jobs.
Michele Carey plays a weird but beautiful model who wants a serious relationship with Elvis.
Despite the fact the story isn't that great, this movie is fun to watch. The soundtrack is very nice as well.
Behind The Scenes:
The screenplay was based on Dan Greenburg's novel "Kiss My Firm But Pliant Lips".
This was also a working title for this movie.
Vernon Presley appears in this movie, as an extra sitting at a table.
Albert, the great Dane, was played by Brutus, one of two dogs actually owned by Elvis.

i really like this film,always have .i think it has something to do with michelle carey co-staring.but seriously i think the songs are great and elvis never looked better
this is one of my least favourite elvis film. he looks great but apart from edge of reality i feel really embarrassed for him. the woman is soo annoying and i find the plot ridiculous. if it didnt have elvis in i would throw it in the bin... but he makes it ok to watch. the only other film i disliked nearly as much was double trouble. i love him...
One of my favorite
Very enjoyeble, fun, great songs , and Elvis looks great with his suits!
here's A Little Less Conversation re-mix video clip...
click on the picture or link below...
The Little Less Conversation Video Clip was surely one of the best ones that I have seen. Really loved and enjoyed it.... thanks for posting it. Dovey
Get Him, get him~~Hot D*** ~~ he's a Squirrel!
You're welcome, Dovey...
I'm happy you enjoyed it!
You're both welcome, Sonny and Elvis-fan!
I'm happy you liked it! It's a great song!
This has to be one of the worst movies Elvis made. Aside from the songs, I thought it was terrible. Elvis looks like he's half embarrassed to be in it, and half fumbling his way through a non existent plot. Michele Carey was his worst female co-star by far....I'd rather watch Shelley Fabares, Nancy Sinatra, or Ann-Margaret any day. Her character is ridiculous and has no depth to it.....at least the characters played by the other female co-stars I mentioned had some spunk and vitality to them. The best and certainly the most redeeming aspects of the film are "Edge Of Reality" and "A Little Less Conversation". Excluding "The Trouble With Girls (And How To Get Into It)", this is my least favorite movie.
Michelle Carey according to what you have explained, didn't have a lot of acting experience. I think the folks who made the movie hired her because she had a nice body. Elvis and Shelley made a much more handsome couple I think. And she was much more talented.
I thought Nancy Sinatra was great. I was always kind of disappointed that she and Elvis didn't do another movie.....especially with her popularity at the time. As for Ann-Margaret, what "dramatics" has she displayed over the years about Priscilla and Elvis?
"Edge Of Reality" was indeed a classic....and was about as far as Elvis got into the field of pyschedlia......lol......excluding maybe "High Heel Sneakers". I'd love to find pics of him in that silver suit from the "Edge Of Reality" sequence though!

Okay, it's late & I'm NOT a night person, so if I'm asking an obvious question, forgive me & be kind! LOL Is this movie on DVD yet? I'd love to add it to my fast-growing collection.
I want to buy me this movie soon. It sound very nice. And I?ve seen a picture of the movie, where Elvis is showering. That?s an other reason why I really want to see that movie. And because of the nice songs.
I love Elvis ♥
I actually quite like this movie, its great if you're looking for a bit of escapism from reality!! Who cares if the plot isnt fantastic, we can take some time out from real-life and just watch Elvis cavort around with cameras, big dogs and lots of cool suits! Personally thats my kind of film!!!!! And wasn't he just gorgeous!
Life is beautiful, enjoy every second of it!! And don't forget to love!!
I saw this for the first time the other week, I enjoyed it

What Android might bring us from CTIA
Next week as wireless fans descend on New Orleans for the annual CTIA Wireless show, we'll get one more peek at how the mobile landscape will unfold over the coming months. Previously held in March, but moved to May for 2012, the three-day event takes a North American focus while including the wireless movers and shakers from around the world.
At previous shows, carriers have pulled back the curtain on high-profile Android smartphones and tablets. In 2010, for example, Sprint announced the HTC Evo 4G and last year we got the slimmed-down Galaxy Tab 10.1. So considering the rapid clip of mobile development, it stands to reason that this year will be no exception, right? … Read more

The Salvation Army Provides Healthy Lifestyle Choices to People in Need
Salvation Army founder General William Booth once said, "Nobody gets a blessing if they have cold feet and nobody ever got saved while they had toothache!"
Booth knew that good physical health was the foundation for a healthy spirit and heart of faith. Since the organization's founding, The Salvation Army has worked to meet all manner of mankind's physical needs.
Health and wellness are popular topics in this day and age, especially as we've seen alarming trends in high obesity rates among youth and adults in the United States. What many people may not know is that The Salvation Army is working to counter this problem by providing individuals and families with exciting opportunities to get active and healthy.
To better understand how The Salvation Army has expanded or explored new initiatives to encourage healthy lifestyle choices for all ages, the organization released an internal study, "Wellness for All," a survey of 100 Salvation Army wellness programs in more than 80 urban and rural cities across the country. The report illustrates the experiences of Salvation Army officers and employees who work directly with Salvation Army health programs.
These programs are available at a wide-range of Salvation Army facilities such as Corps Community Centers, Ray and Joan Kroc Community Centers, summer and day camps, daycare, after-school programs, and Adult Rehabilitation Centers.
It was interesting to note that over the past five years, the Army's health and fitness programs have expanded by 65 percent for families and individuals in poverty. This has been achieved through new initiatives, facilities and great partnerships.
The Salvation Army offers these programs for free or at reduced rates through discounts and scholarships in an effort to target individuals who may have been held back from health-conscious decisions because of limited access or because they simply could not afford it.
The Salvation Army's wellness programs range from fitness and athletics to community gardens and cooking programs. In addition services include mental health programs, summer lunch, health fairs, aquatics and other helpful programs like dental and hygiene clinics.
In the coming weeks, we will be highlighting a few of our unique health programs on our blog and invite you to take a look!

Great article – would like to share on Facebook but don't see that option.
You can definitely see your enthusiasm within the work you write.
The sector hopes for more passionate writers such as you who aren't
afraid to say how they believe. All the time follow your heart.
Great idea. I hope many can enhance and make this as an inspiration. Being healthy is very important to all of us, and we know we cannot be healthy if we don't do anything.
Interesting article.

105 N Killingsworth St, Portland, OR | Directions 9721745.562962 -122.668345
Neighborhoods: Northeast Coalition of Neighborhoods, Humboldt
My Mother's Day flowers from my son were supposed to arrive on Saturday but arrived at noon on Monday. Some of them were droopy, as though they had been in the truck the whole time. My son complained and was offered a refund by the online company that orders through this florist. On Wednesday the florist called and said they were coming to "pick up the cancelled order". Horrible customer service and horrible people skills. Don't use them.
I placed an order to be delivered to my husband for our anniversary. It was the Beer Mug of Blossoms and the picture on the Internet looked great! Unfortunately, the person taking my order thought he heard BEAR MUG OF BLOSSOMS (not that they have one of those in their happy hour collection) and those were delivered instead. I wasn't happy about the mix up but I understand mistakes and was willing to let them deliver the correct order on the following day BUT the woman on the phone told me that she wasn't going to charge me for the bouquet they delivered to my husband BY ACCIDENT! I then insisted that they deliver on the date that I'd ordered it for. After an afternoon of will they or won't they deliver on my anniversary date, they finally delivered the flowers... My husband brought them home.... I got taken! The arrangement was anemic and sad looking and NOT the simple but beautiful arrangement I saw on the website. I should have done this myself and I will next time. Word to the wise; check their work before you have it sent. On the bright side, it was the thought that counts; they refunded me for the balloon they took back (the woman on the phone said that it was my husbands fault cause he gave it back, to which I told her that I didn't give my husband a checklist of everything that was supposed to come with his gift). I don't know how many times they told me over the phone that I got what I'd paid for... I did not, bad and insulting service and a terrible inferior product are not worth 50 bucks! BUYERS BEWARE! BUYERS BEWARE
I placed an online order with this florist on Saturday, 2/25. I requested same-day delivery and received a confirmation of my order. Today is Wednesday, 2/29, and my order still has yet to be delivered!
I received no notice on Saturday that my order wouldn't be filled that day. On Sunday, again nothing. On Monday, I called them and they supposedly contacted the local florist (order was going to Phoenix) who indicated the delivery would be made that day. Later in the day, though, I received an email stating that the florist didn't have the flowers I'd ordered in stock (orange orchids, which was the only reason I'd used this florist in the first place), so I offered guidance on a substitution and was assured the order would be delivered Tuesday. Tuesday came and went and despite ~ 10 emails to Clarence Walker for Flowers, I've heard nothing. At this point, I'm out ~ $90 with no sign of my order being filled.
This place acts like their mistakes are your fault and than over charges you even after they told you how much what you ordered would cost. I did an online order on Wednesday for delivery on Thursday which never came. On Saturday I called and they said their website had some glitches and the never received the order which I understood, things happen and mistakes are made sometimes. I over the phone placed my order with someone we will call "Dave" He barely apologised for the lack of delivery and that should have been red flag enough but I went ahead and ordered anyway asking specifically how much it would cost. When I received the order (at my house so I could hand delivery it for them instead of OHSU where I had originally wanted it delivered) It looked awful! The vase was not lavender like it was supposed to be, the flowers were wilted, and they overcharged me(even though "Dave" specifically told me a price!) This makes me want to never order flowers again! I'll stick with See's candies they have great customer service and don't screw you over and treat you like an idiot! This company is a big disappointment! Thanks for making my special thoughtful gifts a giant pain in the ass!
ABSOLUTE WORST BUSINESS EVER , DONT USE THESE PEOPLE. THE LADY TOLD ME SHE ACCIDENTALLY CHARGED MY CARD < told me to shut up ,and hung up on me and refuses to remove the charge .Now I get to wait 5 to 7 days for a refund , even tho i cancelled order before they even charged my card. I sent them 5 emails to cancel , talked too the owner and the lady , and still they charged my card . these people are CROOKS !!!!!!!
Wrong Day, Wrong Flowers – How disappointing. I ordered a dozen birds of paradise to be delivered on valentines day. Instead, they delivered a day early with a completely different flower arrangement. When I called to complain they said they didn't know what to do because they were out of birds of paradise. Apparently, the concept of canceling my order because they were out of a product never occurred to them. I still can't believe they decided to deliver a day early...lesson learned.
Disappointing, poor service – I went in person and ordered specific flowers and colors for someone's birthday. The woman in store was nice and quoted me $2 a stem, a delivery charge and that they could order the requested colors I wanted in time for the delivery in 2 days. Also, since the delivery is close by she states it is okay if the total is below $35, especially since they are not very busy right now.
The day before delivery I get a call that my order does not make sense.That the price is actually more per stem, I was not charged for a vase and needed to be and that a minimum $35 order must be placed for all deliveries. I explained what I had been told.
I ended up not having all the colors I was promised by the girl waiting on me (no red was there) and the cost was too high for me with all the errors she made. So I decided to change some of the arrangement, including now being charged for a vase when I was originally not. I was told she was distracted that day. I do not think that's an acceptable excuse for that many errors and no real apology for any of it, just excuses. No one else was there in store while she waited on me, yet she is distracted by personal stuff so much that she made all these errors?
I am disappointed and will seek out another place in the future.
Wish I could agree with everyone else. – I sent flowers to my girlfriend and they didnt arrive until after she left for work. I called right away, the man I spoke to agreed that they were late, and told me he would credit my card, which didnt happen.3 weeks later, I finally got through to the manager, who agreed that the flowers were late, but would not give me a refund because my girlfriend got them the NEXT DAY! not what I ordered or payed for. The flower arrangement was pretty, but my suprise never happened... I would probably have ordered from them again, if they had given me a full refund as promised.
Beautiful Arrangement, Great Service – I found this florist online (not through Citysearch so I didn't see any of the scathing reviews) and decided to give them a shot as I am from North Carolina and don't know any Portland florists. The arrangement turned out beautifully, I asked for star gazer lilies and roses which were both included in the arrangement as well as other gorgeous flowers. I never like using a "national" company such as 1-800-Flowers as they tend to give the order to just anybody and I have never had good luck with that. Plus I wanted to specify some of what I wanted included. Clarence Walker was great, with one brief phone call, I explained what I wanted, gave them my price range and they delivered the next day, no problems. I would highly recommend them, they were awesome.
Ruined Valentines Surprise – This Valentines day my Boyfriend and I are in two different states. He wanted to surprise me by sending me flowers. I got nothing, but my bf got a confirmation email saying that i received the flowers! (liars!!!) He eventually had to tell me he ordered flowers for me and that it was SUPPOSE to be a surprise, but when I never thanked him for them he grew suspicious.
I didn't get them until Sunday, the day after Valntines day!!!!!!
The delivery guy called my phone on Sunday, but i missed the call by like 2 minutes. I called right back, and a mans voice said "hello". (that was it. not even introducing that he was a flower delivery service.) I replied "hi, i got a call from this number." the guy said "oh...ok." (VERY UNPROFESSIONAL) there was a bit of silence then I asked "is this number a flower delivery Service?" He said "uhh, yes it is". then there was another pause of silence! So i said who i was and if he had a delivery for me? he said, "o yes i just called you. We tried delivering these flowers yesterday but no one was there." (I was home ALL DAY And ALL NIGHT.......he didn't even call on Valentines day when he was supposedly at my house.) He then said, "i was a block away from your house when i called you, but you did not answer so i'm on the highway now." is this the way they treat their customers? scolding me like i am his child? i said "Are you delivering them to me?" he said, "I can if your at home right now." So he turned around and delivered them. Too bad it was a day late. Don't buy flowers from this company.

There are some phone calls that are predicable every year as the end of school approaches.
"Grandpa," the young voice on the phone coos, "Our big program at school is Thursday and the teacher said our grandparents should come. I have a speaking part. Can you and Grandma come and see me, please?"
That last drawn out, pleading "please" is enough to melt the heart of any grandparent. There's only one reply that is appropriate, "We'll be there." The final question and answer exchange of that grandparent/grandchild phone conversation is always the same; "What time is your program, honey?"
"Eight fifteen in the morning, bye." With that, the young caller is off to harass their other set of grandparents."
Why do school class programs always take place at 8:15 in the morning? I suppose that time is convenient for working parents, but has any teacher ever considered what that time is like for grandparents?
On my normal schedule, 8:15 in the morning is about the time that I am sitting on the edge of the bed, taking inventory of my moving parts to discover what is or is not working that day. It is also the time I search for my glasses, which I had taken off the night before and placed somewhere so I could find them this morning.
After all the parts are moving, and all the lost items found, I get dressed in my 8:15 in the morning attire, which is always the same old blue robe. It is about the time I get my morning pills on board, along with my daily cup of coffee.
I look at the kitchen clock and wonder how in the world tomorrow at 8:15 in the morning I will manage to be cleaned up and dressed, sitting in a classroom halfway across town, filled with strangers, waiting for my grandchild to utter their one memorized line.
At one point, I thought that I had a solution to 8:15 in the morning programs for grandparents. I would attempt to pry that line out of one of our grandchildren, or coax them to sing their special song for me in advance, so I could claim an exemption from attending their 8:15 in the morning program. It doesn't work.
"My teacher said it is a secret and we can't tell anyone before the program."
No amount of coaxing or bribing can get the kid to utter their secret part. My visions of 8:15 in the morning in the old blue robe, and unshaven are out the window.
For the life of me, I can't understand why the part of one grandchild in a school program has to be a secret. I have been trusted with secrets all my life. I promise I can keep this one, especially if hearing it would be grounds for sticking to my normal 8:15 in the morning routine. The future of our nation is secure, if every child grows up protecting secrets as well as they do their part in the class program from grandparents.
It is difficult to imagine there was a time in our lives, a generation ago, when 8:15 in the morning was prime time for Charlyne and me. Somehow, five days a week, we had three children dressed for school by that time. Day after day, it seemed second nature to have the crust cut off the peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, milk money passed out, school papers signed, lost shoes found, homework packed, after school plans co-ordinated, and everyone our the door before 8:00 A.M. All three of our now-adult children now do the same things for their children each morning that we once did for them. How do they effortlessly seem to accomplish so much?
We "baby boomers", (that sounds better than "senor citizens") just can't do the things we once did. At least we can't do them at the times that we once did. There is very little we do at 8:15 in the morning.
At the doctor's office, the mid-day appointments fill up first. I don't even know if the barber who cuts my hair is open before 10:00 A.M. When a repairman is coming to our home, we always opt for afternoon appointments. Only the pleading of a grandchild we love could get us out of the house before 8:15 in the morning.
I wonder who select times for school programs? Could 8:15 in the morning be a teacher's revenge for having to get out of bed before dawn for 180 days of the year to teach our children and grandchildren?
I can picture it now. Several teachers sitting around a table, in a planning session. Details of the first grade program are falling into place. Some teacher asks, "What time should we have the program?" Without batting an eye, the rest of the teachers all gleefully reply in unison, "8:15 in the morning." I don't know what visions race through their head, but it is doubtful it's one of an old man, setting his alarm clock at bedtime, so that he won't disappoint his grandkids the following morning.
I have a suggestion. How about 8:15 in the morning school programs for parents, and then 2:00 in the afternoon matinees for grandparents? If the kids are great in the morning performance, think how much better they would be in a second performance. Besides, any program with such closely guarded secrets needs to be presented more that once.
It would be the perfect time for us baby boomers. We could fit in a matinee at the grandchildren's school between picking up prescriptions at the drug store and the early bird dinner specials. By afternoon, all our body parts would be limbered up and it would be easier for us to drop down into those little classroom chairs that rest about a foot from the floor. In fact, in the afternoon, we may not even need Grandma's help to get out of those little chairs.
Until the rest of the world gets around to calling for matinees for school programs. I'll keep on getting up and going to 8:15 in the morning school programs. I'll keep saying things to Charlyne like, "I never knew there was so much traffic out at 8:15 in the morning," or "Where do these kids get the energy so early in the day?"
I'll keep lowering my big frame into little classroom chairs, and praying they don't give way. I keep waiting for my grandchildren to deliver the lines they have practiced in secret for weeks, things like, "M is for milk. We get milk from cows."
Right then, something changes. After the line is delivered, at that moment when the performing child's gaze touches the eyes of a grandpa, and that little smile that says, "Thanks for coming, Grandpa," the little chair does not seem quite as uncomfortable, nor the hour quite as early. In fact, it even makes the "M is for milk..." line take on a Shakespearian quality.
Getting up extra early wasn't really so bad. It's only 9:00 A.M. and I have the rest of the day. In fact, I'm really glad I came to the program. There's always time for a nap this afternoon.
Sitting there, on that little wooden chair, my spirit warmed by that approving look from my grandchild, I think about all the grandparents who could not even consider attending the program. Here in South Florida, we have hundreds of thousands of grandmas and grandpas whose grandchildren live a thousand miles away. What any of them would give to be able to attend a 8:15 in the morning program for their grandchild.
Yes, those grandparents may receive an email or a video clip later in the day, but nothing apart from being in that classroom at 8:15 in the morning could ever capture the approving twinkle that I catch from my grandchild.
I think about the dozens and dozens of nursing homes in our community. How many of their residents would appreciate attending a school program at 8:15 in the morning, if only they could.
I also think about the little thespians whose grandparents have died. For some children, they never knew their grandparents. How a grandpa or grandma, looking from Heaven's window, must wish they could occupy one of those little chairs, if only for a few minutes.
Know what I've decided? 8:15 in the morning isn't such a bad time for a class program after all. As long as Charlyne and I can get there, any time is a good time to watch one of our grandchildren perform, using the talents that God has blessed them with.
I wonder when the next 8:15 in the morning program will be? With seven grandchildren, it can't be far away.
