Sana'a: Yemeni forces have suspended an offensive aimed at freeing three Western hostages that has cost more than 65 lives to allow for tribal mediators to try to secure their release, local sources said on Thursday.
Yemen army assault suspended to allow hostage talks
Army wants all foreign Al Qaida fighters to leave Manasseh
- Image Credit: AFP
- A Yemeni soldier inspects the site were a suicide car bomb killed 11 soldiers in the city of Saba in central Yemen on January 28, 2013. The attack targeted a checkpoint manned by members of a battalion of the elite Republican Guards on the road between Rada and Manaseh, where the army military operation was taking place, according to tribal sources.
Eighteen soldiers and 48 Al Qaida-linked militants have died in the military operation that began early on Monday in the Al Qaida stronghold of Manasseh, in Bayda province of central Yemen, according to tribal sources and military officials.
Tribal mediators aim to secure the release of two Finns and an Austrian snatched from central Sana'a in December and who authorities believe are being held in Manasseh, the sources said.
A ceasefire came into effect late on Wednesday following mediation by tribal chiefs, the sources said, adding the army was demanding that all foreign Al Qaida fighters leave Manasseh.
Local sources said a number of civilians have also been killed in army shelling of the area but without giving a number.
The army has been hunting two brothers of Tarek Al Dahab, an Al Qaida leader killed in a February 2012 attack. They are suspected of holding the European hostages and have so far refused to surrender despite mediation efforts.
The Austrian man and Finnish man and woman were abducted in Sana'a on December 21 as they prepared to travel to the southern port of Aden via Yemen's second city of Taez.
Earlier this month, Yemeni security officials had said the Europeans were being held by Al Qaida-linked tribesmen in the eastern Marib province.
Most kidnappings of foreigners are carried out by members of the country's powerful tribes who use them as bargaining chips in disputes with the central government.
Hundreds of people have been abducted in Yemen over the past 15 years. Almost all have been freed unharmed.
Al Qaida militants, active in the south and east of Yemen, rarely carry out kidnappings. But a Saudi diplomat, Abdullah Al Khalidi, has remained in the hands of the jihadist network since his abduction in Aden on March 28.

I am done with high school. Thank goodness. But while I was there... i was labled by others as the punk, grunger, or goth. Later on ... In my junior and senior years, I was labeled as hippie, bohemian, and emo.
Mind you, those are other people's label's of me. I label myself only as a human being.

Mr. Ortega is not familiar with true Mexican food. Serving lobster with mayonnaise and refried beans (for God's sake!) shows that he is not familiar with fine Mexican cooking.
Besides that, he needs to define his venue: Is Hugo's a taqueria or a serious restaurant? I wish him well, but I'm afraid this is just another missed opportunity to showcase the wonderful cuisine of Mexico.

On their way: Thank you for the cover story on a band that absolutely deserves it ["Baby, You're a Star," by John Nova Lomax, August 8]. Brian Clements is on a pathway to the cover of Rolling Stone and always has been. The success of Simpleton will mirror something of a No Doubt story. I hope the other guys hang on for the ride, 'cause the guy has it. B.C. once told me that he wished he could sing like me and later that night, when I saw "Taste of Garlic," I almost cried. I will never jump on the bandwagon because that motherfucker is an airplane. More power to them, and baby, you are gonna be a star.

Ethnic enigma: Nightfly, okay, you're a good columnist, but you seem biased [Nightfly, by Craig D. Lindsey, August 8]. At first I thought you were not black but just a dude who really likes hip-hop. But lately you seem black.
I love how you cut places like Sempers, Max's and other spots. These are places where I slum, like if there's no place worth going to, you can go there and hear a tired-assed pickup line, see some awful clothes and a good fight in the parking lot.
My pet peeve about you is you don't cover jazz unless it's mediocre. You have good taste in hip-hop, though. And I think I have a mini-crush on you.

A "charming" and "unique" destination defined by "scenery, diversity, activities, and friendliness of the people," this "beautiful, exotic, island" has much to offer. Soak in the surfer-friendly beaches, explore the "scenic ancient ruins," or visit the temples that "sprout up amongst the lush greenery." For an authentic Bali experience that verifies "the strength of the local culture," stop by the "traditional bazaar-market" to "bargain with merchants."

Ghost B.C. Burger Makes the Body of Christ More Delicious Than Ever
Heavy-metal burger joint launches sacrilegious snack in honor of Swedish ghouls
UPDATE: Kuma's Corner has issued a statement in response to complaints about the October-exclusive menu item. They've also made a $1,500 donation to the Catholic Charities of the Chicago Archdiocese "as we understand that they share our mentality of serving anyone in need from any walk of life." Read the entire open letter below.
Ghost B.C. aren't afraid of a good gimmick, and likely realize there's much more to shocking people than simply being ... shocking (ahem, Miley Cyrus). You want to get people right where they live — deliver a jolt straight to the gut — and what better way to hit that mark then to aim at the exact intersection of food and faith. The Ghoulish-Swedish doom band now has its very own burger at Chicago beef-merchant Kuma's Corner. The heavy metal-themed restaurant recently debuted "The Ghost," a 10-ounce patty topped with a red wine reduction and a communion wafer.
Yes, those are the key ingredients of the Eucharist, or communion if you prefer, representing nothing less than the blood and body of Jesus Christ. That sacrilegious snack comes nestled within a soft pretzel bun, and rounded out with slowly braised goat shoulder, aged white cheddar, and ghost chili aioli. Somewhere in that last little bit is a likely knowing nod to hellfire and Baphomet. This devil's food will run the un-pious patron $17 and includes fries, chips, or a side salad. We're guessing 30 pieces of silver would've been a little steep?
As Chicago Tribune reports, not everyone's happy about "The Ghost." One Kuma's fan said it's "not as offensive to me as much to my God and my savior," which we're guessing is worse. Catholic Foodie blog staffer Jeff Young took a pretty measured approach: "It's not the Eucharist, but it's still symbolic. For us as Catholics, the Eucharist is more than a symbol, it's a sacrament. At the same time, it doesn't mean that symbols aren't important. ... It is a mockery of something that is holy. The same thing could be said of the band itself." Touché!
Still, Kuma's Director of Operations Luke Tobias seemed mostly unconcerned. "People have been kind of upset," he told the Tribune. "The thing with this is, the communion wafer is unconsecrated, so until that happens, it's really just a cracker." Of course, that cracker does come stamped with a cross.
Kuma's entire statement:
Kuma's Corner is aware that in some cases, people have unfortunately found reason to find offense at our recent special menu addition the Ghost. We make hamburgers for a living. We are a small nine table restaurant in the Avondale neighborhood of Chicago. And we love heavy metal. There is a band doing music that we enjoy particularly called Ghost. They are from Sweden. As with all of our burgers, the Ghost was created to pay homage to the music they've created. We work very hard on coming up with creative combinations for our food just as a band would work very hard to be creative with their music and we think it shows in their regard so we found it appropriate that with them being on tour this month, and this month being October, we honor them in this way.
That said, we appreciate the kind words of support from the vast majority of people who understand that we, in no way, created this as a commentary on religion or as an attack on anyones personal beliefs. In the past we have done a number of burgers dealing with this same exact topic to very little fanfare. Never in the spirit of offending anyone, and always in mindset of praising a band for the work that they do.
However, in the haze of the past few days, we would like to express the following. We support the rights of every person in the United States as given to them by the Constitution, to do and say what they feel. We are fortunate to live in a place where we are granted particular freedoms not available to most people in most locales and we feel it is our obligation to not stand down in the face of threats but instead to stand up for something we hold to be much nobler; the First Amendment. If you are not familiar with it, let us provide the text for you:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
So, to be clear, the Ghost burger will be available at Kuma's Corner throughout the month of October. In addition, Ghost will be on tour in the United States all month and we encourage you to familiarize yourself with this amazing band by supporting them at one of their shows across the country.
In standing with our policy of supporting charity and Chicago at large, we will be making a $1500 dollar donation to the Catholic Charities of the Chicago Archdiocese as we understand that they share our mentality of serving anyone in need from any walk of life.

Taken Away
Elizabeta sighed happily. She couldn't remember ever being as content as she was now. She was happy just to lie here in Prussia's arms until she got too hungry and had to get up.
She thought he was awake, even though his breathing was slow and deep. She'd only woken up a few minutes ago, been briefly confused then remembered that she'd fallen asleep in his embrace.
She felt the lightest touch on her long brown hair, like a butterfly landing on it. She turned her head lazily and saw his red eyes open, and his hand gently stroking her hair.
He smiled at her, none of his usual cockiness in it. Just pure, gentle happiness.
Elizabeta knew how long he'd wanted this. The memory of her constant rejections made her wince a little. She'd been pretty harsh.
As if he was reading her mind, he said, 'It's all behind us now, Liz.' She propped herself up on one elbow and nodded. 'I know. But I did come down really hard on you.'
He laughed and rolled his eyes. 'You didn't come down hard on me, Liz; your frying pan did.' She laughed too. 'Good point.'
They lay silently for a minute, watching the sun make pretty diamonds across the bed.
'Prussia?' she asked. She felt his nod against her head. 'Why did you keep trying?' she asked, twirling a strand of his silver hair round her finger. 'Even after I rejected you so many times?'
He hesitated for a moment. 'Well, I… let's put it this way. I knew you were someone special. I knew your spirit wasn't made for being tied down by Austria.' He said the name with scorn. 'You needed someone more wild, like me,' he added.
She fell silent, surprised by his unusual openness. Prussia was confident and crazy, and never thought about the consequences of his actions until they became clear. (This was probably why he got in so much trouble with Russia all the time.) But he was never open with his emotions.
The front door slammed.
Elizabeta sat up. 'Did you hear that?' she asked, looking at Prussia. He shrugged. 'Probably Roddy dearest coming to beg for you to come back.'
She frowned and stood. 'Austria?' she called. There was no answer. Prussia got up too. 'Maybe it was just the wind, Liz,' he said.
Elizabeta froze. 'But- But I locked the door last night,' she said, her voice coming out weak. Prussia stopped dead too.
The realization hit them at the same time.
'You hide,' she hissed at him, and casually slipped out of her bedroom into the hall.
Just as she had expected, Russia stood at the end of the hallway, smiling. She pretended to be surprised, jumping backwards in shock.
'Uh_ Russia! What are you doing here?' she asked, pressing herself against the door so it closed. He watched her do this. 'Hungary, do you know where Prussia is?' he asked innocently. She flinched. 'I-I have no idea. I haven't seen him for three days.'
His wide purple eyes narrowed a little. He didn't believe her. 'But doesn't he spend a lot of time with you?' he asked in his ridiculously high voice. She laughed nervously. 'What do you mean by that?' He took a step closer to her. She held her breath. 'I'd like you to tell me where he is, da?' he said softly.
Elizabeta's heart was beating so hard she wouldn't have been surprised if Russia could hear it. But she gathered her courage together and declared, 'I really, really don't know where he is.'
Russia raised his eyebrows and took her by the shoulders. She prepared to throw him off, but all he did was move her away from the door.
'That's my bedroom,' she snapped as he opened the door. He turned back to smile at her. 'I know! It seems to be the most likely place for Prussia to be, da?'
She clenched her fists at the implication, but followed him inside; hoping Prussia had managed to hide himself well.
Unfortunately, Russia must possess the ability to smell fear or something, like a hellhound, because he strode directly to Elizabeta's wardrobe and flung the doors open to reveal Prussia.
'Dammit,' Prussia said flatly, summing up the situation perfectly.
Russia giggled childishly. Elizabeta stood at the door, her heart still fluttering like a frightened bird's.
This obsession that Russia had with Prussia had been going on for about a month now. Usually Prussia managed to avoid him easily enough.
But they'd been caught off guard today.
She was snapped out of her reverie by Prussia yelling, 'Nein! Let me go!' She blinked and saw Russia had slung Prussia over his shoulder.
'You don't mind, do you, Hungary?' Russia asked brightly. She gasped. 'Of course I do! Are you out of your mind?'
There was a beat of silence as Russia gazed at her with his empty eyes. That had definitely been the wrong thing to say.
'Please,' she begged. 'Don't take him away from me.' Tears gathered in her eyes. Prussia stopped struggling and twisted round to look at her in surprise. Russia smiled and patted her on the head. 'Don't be sad. I'll let you two see each other once every five years.' Prussia started struggling again. 'Let me go, kolkhoz! You can't do this to me!'
Russia ignored him completely and moved towards the door. Elizabeta jumped in front of him, desperate to do anything, anything to stop him taking Prussia away. Russia freed one of his hands and with stunning speed, smashed it into her face, sending her flying across the room into the wall.
She was dizzy and felt sick, her head and heart pounding, but she forced herself to stagger to her feet. She couldn't let this happen to them!
'Let. Him. Go!' she snarled, shouting the last word. Russia disregarded her, and kicked open the door.
'Elizabeta!' cried Prussia, and her head jerked up in amazement. It was the first time she'd ever heard him use her whole name. Ever.
Their eyes met, deep red to green. In that one look they conveyed more emotions and pain than they ever could in a thousand words.
Russia carried Prussia out the door and a few seconds later Elizabeta heard the door slam again.
All the energy left her. She couldn't even cry. She just knelt there on the floor, staring at the spot where they'd disappeared.
Even as the full horror of what had happened welled up inside her, threatening to break loose, she vowed to herself that she would get Prussia back. Even if it took a hundred years, they'd be together again.

The Sports Network DATE & TIME: Thursday, January 17, 8 p.m. (et) FACTS & STATS: Site: Resch Center (9,729) -- Green Bay, Wisconsin. Television: ESPN3.com. Home Record: YSU 4-2, Green Bay 7-1. Away Record: YSU 5-3, Green Bay 0-7. Neutral Record: YSU 0-2, Green Bay 1-1. Conference Record: YSU 1-2, Green Bay 2-2. Series Record: Green Bay leads, 24-8. GAME NOTES: Green Bay tries to make it three in a row on Thursday night as the Phoenix tangle with the Youngstown State Penguins in Horizon League action at the Resch Center. Since losing back-to-back games against Wright State and Detroit to open league play earlier this month, Green Bay has bounced back with consecutive victories against Loyola-Chicago (58-45) and, last Saturday, Illinois-Chicago (53-47), as it flexed its defensive muscles. As for the Penguins, they too lost to the Titans of Detroit, but in their case it wasn't even close as they took a massive tumble in a 101-60 decision last week. The defeat was the second in the last three outings for YSU, which is now 1-2 in conference play as a result. With respect to the all-time series between these two schools, Green Bay is in control with 24 wins in 32 matchups. YSU has won two of the last three battles, but when it comes to playing in Green Bay, the Phoenix are a near- perfect 15-1. Youngstown State was in no shape to keep up with Detroit at either end of the floor last week, as the Penguins shot only 37.0 percent from the field and 2- of-14 beyond the arc, while the Titans lit up the scoreboard with 53.2 percent accuracy from the floor and 11-of-21 out on the perimeter. DJ Cole ended up being the leading scorer for the hosts with 16 points off the bench, while Damian Eargle dropped in another 14 and pulled down seven boards, but still YSU was thumped on the glass, 46-31. Kendrick Perry, the team's leading scorer with 16.0 ppg, was held to just nine points. Active all over the court, Perry is also responsible this season for a team-best 70 assists and 24 steals, not to mention coming up with close to five rebounds per game. Eargle (12.4 ppg) assumes the top spot on the glass with almost seven rebounds per outing, but for someone who has their hands on the ball so much, Eargle really needs to work on his free-throw shooting which is coming in at under 59 percent. Green Bay shot just 36.2 percent from the floor last weekend, including 3- of-14 behind the 3-point line, and yet the team came out on top because the Flames were just as bad with their 34.0 percent effort from the field and 7- of-22 beyond the arc. It also helped that the Phoenix outscored the visitors at the free-throw line, 16-8. Alec Brown was the lone double-digit scorer for the hosts with 21 points, adding eight rebounds and four blocked shots for good measure. Keifer Sykes accounted for seven points, seven rebounds, five assists and a pair of steals. The point production by Sykes was far below his season average of 15.6 ppg, but he is also the key figure when it comes to spreading the ball around, which is why he is first on the unit with 70 assists. Brown (11.9 ppg) is the leading rebounder (6.8 rpg) and has 23 blocks, yet for someone who spends so much time in the paint, it is puzzling why he is shooting just 39.2 percent from the field. After being beaten up by Detroit the Penguins would probably like to keep the pace of this game down to a crawl, although that fits Green Bay perfectly and should work in favor of the Phoenix.

Senior Member
I could use some help with her. I mainly play Irelia but decided to pick up Riven and I love her style, but I'm just having a hard time with her on TT. I normally build damage with some armor and resis but i really hate building her tanky and would like to stay away from it if possible. I run with a team and i just feel like I'm not pulling my weight unless fed or late game. Suggestions?
she's a good champion on TT, but she isn't someone you can just pick up and expect good scores with. as much as you hate building tanky, it's a must on TT because the damage you deal is mostly up close.
hmm.. start top lane i would say, as she can easily take out most champions 1v1 early. then also, I suggest wriggles if u r not so solid with her yet, but if u r rush the brutalizer as ur first item. then the blood thirster. but if u need quick defense I suggest: aegis, guardian angel, frozen mallet. those are for general defense and of course FoN or QSS for hard AP and THornmail for Hard AD.
thanks for the info. It looks like I'll have to start buidling tanky then. I agree though she defiantly isn't a champ you can pick up and pub stomp with!
riven is meant to be played tank, just the same as irelia lol well thats how i play those heroes. Its better for heroes like that to go to tanky dps because they can take hits while doing damage, like j4 and xin. You can play as a glass cannon but i wouldnt recomended it because your survivabilty will be really low and you get 1 shotted by sion Q and W LOL
dorans shield is pretty bad on TT because with cloth 5 you get a way better laning phase and it builds into the godlike wriggles, so it doesn't waste a slot like dorans shield usually would. however, some champions like kennen could take dorans shield since he doesn't get wriggles. i think dorans blade is a solid item. really nothing to say about it except it stacks well, and gives you a more aggressive laning phase at the risk of getting zoned out if you lose too much health.
I dont play riven but one thing u can do that will make you 2x as good would Be auto attacking then activation 1 part of your Q and repeating also Brutalizer is usually what i seen rush
I'll try that cloth and 5 pots next time I get a chance to play. It sounds like it would make good common since. I usually start with the blade but I have a problem in prolonged battles starting out without those extra pots. Haven't tried rushing a brutalizer I'll have to try that out as well after I get my wriggles.

Glorious Antique Jewelry By Appointment New York 347 712 6366 Guest Book $5,875.00 |
SOLD This gleaming group of golden intaglios came to me as a collection held together by their Georgian split ring. I immediately began to research the inscriptions. They take you deeper and deeper into unforseen places and meaning. They are not only gorgeous as a necklace on a long chain but will bring more attention to the owner than will Match.com. Tactile to the hand (you can't keep from holding them) each fob is unique and a marvel of gold smithing and engraving. There is a carnelian inscribed with a deer eating from a tree with a wide winged bird companion, an amethyst stone with the word "amam" meaning honest, faithful, to believe in or in Hindi, peace. There is a hexogonal bloodstone generously flecked with red, chalcedony engraved with two clasped hands, a carnelion with a wild boar carved into the surface, another chalcedony with a compass showing direction points, an amethyst inscribed with a Scottish clan brooch in a garter form, antlered moose atop and the words "si je puis" meaning "if I can". These words are the motto of a Scottish clan that lived on the west shore of Loch Lomand. It is exciting and satisfying to search for the meanings of lost time and unknown people. The gift of antique objects such as these urge us to do so. Press the intaglio into the flat surface of silly putty and you will clearly see the inscription on it. That unleashes the secret each fob holds. The possibilites for wear are many. The group can be linked to a watch chain or bracelet. I love it as shown: a necklace in the length to be chosen by you. All in marvelous condition. 15kt gold The chain shown is sold separately and is Victorian with a hand clasp |

When a friend or loved one passes away, many people want to send funeral flowers as a symbol of their love and a show of heartfelt condolences to the family and other mourners at the service. The options for funeral flowers include: arrangements for the casket, standing arrangements such as floral crosses or wreaths, as well as smaller baskets or arrangements. However, etiquette dictates what type of arrangement is appropriate as not all funeral flowers should be sent by anyone.
If you are not able to attend the funeral service, you can still send sympathy flowers to the family's home as all funeral flowers do not need to be at the service. The most common options for a sympathy gift to the home are a vase of beautiful flowers or a floral basket. Fruit baskets or gifts of gourmet food are also appreciated at the home of the family when they receive mourners.
No matter what type of funeral flowers you need, the expert Sympathy Advisors at 1-800-FLOWERS.COM® will be able to help you with selection and ordering, and they will arrange for delivery to the funeral service location or family home. All funeral flowers on 1-800-FLOWERS.COM are thoughtfully designed by their creative florists, and the designs include traditional flowers for the funeral service as well as more contemporary styles to have sent to the home of the family.

Portugal, No Longer Contagious, Is on the Rebound
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- It's official: Portuguese Prime Minister Pedro Passos Coelho affirmed Sunday his nation Portugal will exit the European Union/International Monetary Fund/European Central Bank bailout on May 17.
And in a development some seem to fret, the nation will do it Irish-style, with no precautionary credit line to tap in the event of renewed difficulty. The investment implications here, like Portugal geographically, are relatively small. But the turnaround story is noteworthy as it illustrates the maturation of sentiment in this bull market.
When the eurozone crisis began in May 2010, Portugal wasn't the center of attention -- Greece was. But as contagion fears grew, folks fretted Portugal would be the next Greece with structural competitiveness issues, a Socialist government unable or unwilling to enact reforms, no independent currency and a heavy dose of government ownership in the economy.
As speculation swirled, yields shot skyward from 4.1% 10-year sovereign yields at December 2009's close to 6.4% in early May 2010. In early 2011, rates rose sharply, reaching 10% by May, leading to Portugal's 78 billion euro bailout request. In early 2012, Greece defaulted and fears grew Portugal would follow. Ten-year yields kept rising, hitting 15.8% in January 2012. The economy suffered greatly, contracting 10 consecutive quarters beginning in the fourth quarter of 2010. Unemployment rose, peaking above 17%. Political instability followed.
Then-PM Jose Socrates' Socialist government collapsed in late 2010. Passos Coelho's reforms met with opposition, protest and confidence votes. Portugal was a key cog in broader eurozone fears. Default and fears of contagion could grow. Hold on and folks may realize Greece is an anomaly.
The shoe never dropped and Portugal is rebounding. Following a highly successful return to bond markets last year, capped off by the sale of 10-year debt at affordable rates, yields on Portuguese sovereign debt are down to pre-crisis lows. Friday, 10-year Portuguese debt traded at a 3.6% yield. Source: FactSet, 05/02/2009-05/02/2014.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Great stuff-if your hair is damaged do try this! My fine colored hair loves this product. Because of price I was not going to repurchase, however one wash without and hair was a tangled mess! Hooked for sure, do try it.
This is a nice deep conditioner treatment but the fact that its keratin you have to watch out. I did this after I washed my hair and left it in for about 30 minutes. It was frizzy and not so great immediately and I was annoyed, but the next day it was very nice.
I just found out about using keratin more and anything with it in it has to be used sparingly. If you use it too much you will have breakage. It's apparently too much protein for the hair. Because of this I will not be buying this again. I felt it didn't do anything that spectacular for me for the price and the fact I can only use it once a week. I will be sticking with other deep conditioners like Macadamia masks etc.

Harvey's Sound Constitution
Regarding Elise Ackerman's article "Freedom of Speech in Handcuffs" (May 1), I want to offer congratulations to Terner's of Miami, Marcia Terner, and the rest of the clan (klan?) for denying Angel Dominguez and Anthony Romano their right to distribute information in the public domain -- just because it was pro-union literature. Once again the Calle Ocho warrior mentality strikes at the heart of the First Amendment.
Maybe Marcia Terner, to be consistent, would also have called the police if these same two men were distributing anti-Castro literature outside her handbag factory. Doubtful!
With any luck, Terner and her ilk will have to pay all costs for the defense of Dominguez and Romano -- and let's hope it's a costly lesson to these cretins when they lose their case in court.

Garcia-Pedrosa: Autocrat or Terrorist?
After reading Robert Andrew Powell's story about Miami Beach City Manager Jose Garcia-Pedrosa ("The Autocrat," May 1), I can only compare the manager to some of the great leaders of our time -- like Cuba's and those of the old U.S.S.R. It all has to do with power -- they have it, you don't. You speak up against the government and you wake up missing. Even our spineless city commissioners fear him. Business people don't dare even speak his name.
Well, this writer does not fear him. Why? Because this is a free country. You may not like it, Mr. City Manager, but it is. Having a degree hanging on the wall does not put you above the people you are paid to serve. I remember a president who thought he was above the people, and he was removed from office. You too will make a small error in judgment one day and will find yourself on the outside looking in.
Now a word to the people of Miami Beach: Don't walk in fear of this terrorist. Speak up; let people know what you think. He is only a man and can do only so much. He does not own the city or the law. Go out and vote; tell the government what you want. Attend the meetings, get up and talk, tell the jellyfish commissioners what you want. Keep on them until they do what you want. They can be replaced very easily.
Alan Nengel
Miami Beach
Garcia-Pedrosa: Out of Control?
There is nothing wrong with strong leadership -- if it is responsive to the citizens and can be controlled by the citizens. The Miami Beach city manager is neither. Rather, he is an appointee who is removed from the needs of the community.
Miami Beach is no longer a small town; it's growing in stature, population, and wealth. It is time the city charter was amended to allow for the election of a strong mayor. That would allow strong leadership and accountability.

Lousy Cars but Killer Parties
Over the past several weeks, I have been reading letters about the Carnival Miami South Beach brouhaha and Kirk Semple's article about the event ("South Beach Goes Palm Beach," April 3). I have read points of view from residents, neighbors, and merchants. I wonder what the main sponsor, General Motors, which spent $250,000 to put together the General Motors Carnival Miami South Beach event, thought when, in addition to having thousands of "unruly" people at their fling, the Queen of Carnival, telenovela star Thalia, was seen riding a Lincoln Town Car at the front of the parade. Makes one wonder.

After They Made Jack, They Broke the Mold
Reading Robert Andrew Powell's story about Jack Shaber ("Mr. Basketball," March 27) shows me that there are people who really care about people and sports, without gain or profit.
What Jack forgot to mention was that back in those days we had clubs that played sports. (Today they have gangs.) Example: Jack and I and four other fellows formed a basketball team, and we would play against other teams. We were probably about fifteen or sixteen years old.
Last year Jack sent me a copy of the box score of one of our games. Not only did he record a box score, but after 60 years he still had it.
They don't make them like that any more.

Listening to Ozzy Osbourne Doesn't Mean You're Racist, It Just Means You're Brain Dead
I am offended by letter writer C. Byrd (March 6) saying that I am some kind of racist because I do not listen to Israel Kantor's "black" music. That's like saying black people are racist because a large majority of them don't listen to Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, or Ozzy Osbourne. People listen to the music they like, period. And it's not because they are or are not racist.

Lakes Entertainment Announces Results For Second Quarter 2012
Lakes Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ: LACO) today announced results for the three and six months ended July 1, 2012.
Second Quarter ResultsNet earnings for the second quarter of 2012 were $0.4 million, compared to net earnings of $9.5 million in the second quarter of 2011. Loss from operations was $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2012 compared to earnings from operations of $15.8 million for the second quarter of 2011. Basic and diluted earnings were $0.02 per share for the second quarter of 2012 compared to earnings of $0.36 per share for the second quarter of 2011.
Lakes Entertainment reported second quarter 2012 revenues of $2.5 million, compared to prior-year second quarter revenues of $28.2 million. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to the buy-out of the management agreement for the Four Winds Casino Resort in New Buffalo, Michigan, during June of 2011. Pursuant to the buy-out agreement, the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians paid to Lakes a buy-out fee of approximately $24.5 million. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in fees earned from the management of the Red Hawk Casino near Sacramento, California, during the second quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of 2011. Revenues in the current year quarter related to the management of the Red Hawk Casino.
For the second quarter of 2012, Lakes' selling, general and administrative expenses decreased in comparison to the second quarter of 2011 by approximately $0.4 million to $1.9 million. This decline resulted primarily from decreases in travel and related expenses due to the termination of the Company's aircraft lease during the fourth quarter of 2011 as well as decreases in payroll and related expenses.
Lakes recognized impairments and other losses of $1.4 million and $0.6 million during the second quarters of 2012 and 2011, respectively. The current quarter impairments and other losses included $0.8 million due to the March 2012 determination that Lakes would not continue to move forward with the casino project with the Jamul Indian Village ("Jamul Tribe") near San Diego, California, and the termination of Lakes' agreement with the Jamul Tribe. Also included in impairments and other losses for the three months ended July 1, 2012 were $0.6 million related to costs associated with development plans for the Rocky Gap project which were subsequently revised. The prior year second quarter impairments and other losses were due primarily to uncertainty surrounding the completion of the project with the Jamul Tribe.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

This Malus is a marvellous Flowering Crab Apple with large, white flowers that burst open from pink buds in spring followed by glossy, red fruits produced in abundance in the autumn. The large, dark green foliage turns yellow/bronze in the autumn before falling.
The versatile fruits produced by this tree can be harvested and used to make a tasty crab apple jelly or alternatively, left on the tree to create an attractive, lasting winter display and provide food for a variety of wildlife. Growing to just 5 x 4 metres in 20 years, Malus Gorgeous will become slightly spreading in form. This Malus grows well in most positions but is happiest when the soil is moist and well-drained. A small tree very deserving of its name.
This variety of Malus has large crab apples, ideal for culinary purposes, and is therefore sold with zero VAT.

Adopt a friend for life!
Help prepare pets in need for forever homes—become a foster parent! By providing temporary care in your home you can help us give hundreds of animals a good start in life or a second chance.
Become a volunteer at DHA and help make a difference in the lives of shelter animals while they wait for forever homes.
Millions of cats and dogs are euthanized each year because there are not enough homes for them all. You can be an important part of the solution and help your pet live a happier, healthier, and longer life. Learn more about DHA's low-cost spay/neuter services.
If you have a general inquiry, questions about a cat or dog who is available for adoption, or want to schedule a spay/neuter or intake assessment appointment, please contact the shelter's Client Services staff at firstname.lastname@example.com or (302) 571-0111.

Minimalist Bird is my response to the Flappy Bird craze, but from a minimalist perspective.
Inspired by Bauhaus, Minimalist Bird challenges and rewards you by having you do as little as possible. Share your score with your friends to let them know how little you've done today.
Feeling a bit cynical on this Monday? Why not download a copy of Minimalist Bird and get your existential desserts.
