How in the world can our government be so foolish?
Anyone that claims that there is not a lot of stuff that can be cut out of the federal budget is lying to you.
All of this crazy spending is going to get us into a massive amount of trouble eventually. Already, on a per capita basis the U.S. national debt is worse than the national debts of Greece, Italy, Ireland, Portugal and Spain.
We have accumulated the biggest debt in the history of the world and we are adding to it at a rate of about 150 million dollars an hour.
Our politicians strut around as if they are the smartest and wisest leaders in the history of the world, but the truth is that someday people will look back in horror at the decline of our once great society.
The federal government needs to stop spending so much money on stupid things and needs to stop pushing our national debt to nightmarish new levels.
Unfortunately, the corruption in Washington D.C. is so deep and so pervasive that it is going to be almost impossible to turn it around.1 2

Arab Indonesians are citizens of Indonesia of Arab, mainly Hadrami, descent. Restricted under Dutch East Indies' law until 1919, the community elites later gained economic power through real estate investment and trading. Currently found mainly in Java and South Sumatra, they are almost all (generally orthodox) Muslims.
Indonesia has had contact with the Arab world for hundreds of years, prior to the emergence of Islam in Indonesia. Most contact was with spice traders, but the first Arab settlements in the archipelago may date from the fifth century. Some later founded dynasties, including the Sultanate of Pontianak, while others intermingled with existing kingdoms. These early communities adopted much of the local culture, and some disappeared entirely while others formed ethnically distinct communities.[2]
Modern Arab Indonesians are generally descended from Hadramis, They were classified as "foreign orientals" along with Chinese Indonesians by the Dutch colonists, which led to them being unable to attend certain schools and restricted from travelling, and having to settle in special Arab districts, or kampung Arab. As liaison and to lead the community, the Dutch government appointed some Captain Arabs in the districts. These laws were repealed in 1919.[3] A few Arabs from other countries also came to Indonesia during Dutch colonial rule.
The community elites began to build economic power through trade and real estate acquisition, buying large amounts of real estate in Batavia (modern-day Jakarta), Singapore and other parts of the archipelago. Through charity work and "conspicuous consumption", they built and protected their social capital; eventually, some Arab Indonesians joined the Volksraad, the people's council of the Dutch East Indies.[4]
During the Indonesian National Awakening, Arab Indonesians began to experience hostility from native Indonesians owing to their foreign descent; they also experienced hostility from the Dutch. This led to the formation of organizations exclusively for Arab Indonesians beginning in 1913; these organizations viewed the Arabian peninsula as a homeland and tended to ignore Indonesia. An Indonesian nationalistic movement, Persatoean Arab Indonesia, was founded by Abdurrahman Baswedan in 1934, eventually leading to a "cultural reorientation".[5]
Indonesian scholar Azyumardi Azra depicts Indonesians of Arab descent as wishing to purge Indonesian Islam of its indigenous religious elements. Indonesian critics of Arab influence in Indonesia point to the founding of the radical group Jemaah Islamiah (JI) and leadership of Laskar Jihad (LJ) and Front Pembela Islam by Indonesian Arabs,.[6][7]
First generation immigrants are referred to as wulayātī or totok. They are a small minority of the Arab Indonesian population. The majority, muwallad, were born in Indonesia and may be of mixed heritage.[8]
A large amount of the Arabs from Hadramaut were Sayyid and Sharif and had special status and privileges within the Hadrami community. Other Muslims were required to show them respect and a non-Sayyid could not marry the daughter of the Sayyid, while a Sayyid could marry other women (Kafa'ah).[citation needed]
The majority of Arab Indonesians live on Java, primarily in West and East Java. A sizable minority live in Sumatra,[9] Kalimantan, Bali, Sulawesi and Ambon.
Arab Indonesians are almost all Muslim; according to the 2000 census, 98.27 percent of Arab Indonesians are Muslim, compared to 88.22 percent of the general population. Historically, most have lived in Kauman, or the area around mosques, but this has changed in recent years.[10] The majority are Sunni, following the Shafi'i school of Islamic law; a growing minority are Shia.[11] Children are generally sent to madrasahs.[12]
The Islam practiced by Arab Indonesians tends to be more orthodox than the local, indigenous-influenced forms like abangan. Most of the sayyid families follow Ba 'Alawiyya sufi order. Many Arab Indonesians attempt to convince local Muslims to follow a more orthodox form of Islam as well.[6]

A business owner in Montgomery County shoots and holds an alleged burglar at gunpoint.

Officials say the business has been broken into on at least ten separate occasions.
The suspect who may face burglary charges was treated at Ben Taub Hospital in Houston where he was listed in stable condition.

Manchester police tell Patch prosecutors decided not to file charges against the 19-year-old Webster Groves man who prompted four Parkway schools to go into "lockout" mode Dec. 17 while police searched nearby woods for the teen who posessed a loaded shotgun.
No one was injured during the incident and the teen finally surrendered peacefully to authorities.
Manchester Police Chief Tim Walsh said his investigators presented the case to the St. Louis County Prosecutors office shortly after the incident, which is normal procedure, but prosecutors determined they would not file criminal charges against the teen.
(Read Related Story: )
The incident began around 4:30 p.m., Dec. 17 after police said the teen bought a shotgun Monday afternoon, texted his girlfriend that he was going to kill himself, then proceeded to the area near Parkway South High School, causing more than two hours of alarm at four Parkway district schools.
Police said he was taken to the hospital for psychiatric evaluation after the incident, but it is still unclear why he came from Webster Groves to Manchester.
Manchester police tell Patch the shotgun was loaded when it was seized by police. It was purchased by the teen at South Side Guns on Gravois Road hours before he headed into the woods behind Parkway South with the gun.

Even in the midst of a lockout, James Harrison has found a way to deliver a few cheap shots.
In the August issue of Men's Journal, the Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker lays into NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell (his second favorite target, after opposing players), his opponents, and even his teammates with some seriously questionable comments. See Rooney family? This is what you get when you don't let Harrison hit people.
A four-time Pro Bowler and 2008 AP Defensive Player of the Year, Harrison has earned a reputation for being a hard hitter, both off and on the field. And he's never shied away from expressing his displeasure about Commissioner Goodell and the league's crackdown on dangerous hits, which cost Harrison $100,000 in fines in 2010.
It was one thing when Harrison threatened to retire after being fined $75,000 for his concussion-causing hit on Cleveland Browns wide receiver Mohamed Massaquoi last October. He was frustrated, and felt like he was being singled-out as the poster boy for the midseason rule changes. But his most recent comments cross a line, both in the locker room and the NFL head offices.
He called Steelers running back Rashard Mendenhall a "fumble machine" for his fourth quarter turnover against the Green Bay Packers in Super Bowl XLV. And criticized quarterback Ben Roethlisberger for his two interceptions, telling him to "stop trying to act like Peyton Manning." Apparently though, Harrison gives himself a pass for recording only one tackle (albeit a sack) during the big game.
His public criticism draws a clear line in the locker room between the Steelers offense and defense -- the outspoken linebacker has nothing but compliments for fellow Steelers defender Troy Polamalu. Still, Harrison has been called many things over the years, but a "bad teammate" has never been one of them. ESPN reports that he has called Roesthlisberger to explain his comments, claiming the Men's Journal article "twisted" them. Mendenhall responded to his public dig via Twitter, saying he didn't have a problem with Harrison.
But an athlete publicly calling out his teammates isn't exactly a new phenomenon (neither is deflecting responsibility for a loss), and it's something Harrison and coach Mike Tomlin will have to deal with in the locker room once the lockout is lifted. Harrison saved his choicest quotes for the commissioner. And he's going to have trouble claiming those were twisted too.
Calling Goodell a "crook," a "puppet," a "devil" and, apparently gunning for the bad press cycle, a choice anti-gay slur, Harrison didn't stop there, telling the magazine flat out, "I hate [Goodell] and will never respect him." Just in case we still weren't clear.
Look, we don't live in some fantasy land. Millions of people undoubtedly say similar, and probably much worse things about their superiors everyday (see: Horrible Bosses). But there's a big difference between privately griping to your friends or significant other and telling a magazine, "If that man was on fire and I had to piss to put him out, I wouldn't do it." There's one to try out at the next all-company barbecue.
It's a shame, because when you get past all the insanely inflammatory statements, Harrison actually makes some legitimate points about the league's player safety crusade. But at a time when public sentiment overwhelmingly favors the players in the NFL's asinine labor dispute, Harrison's headline-stealing comments are the last thing the players union needs.
Bill Parise, Harrison's agent, defended his client's language to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, saying, "I think people have to be careful not to read that and think those statements are anything more than expressions of feelings, particularly in regard to the commissioner. The commissioner fined James $100,000 last year. What do you want him to say, he's my best friend?"
Apparently we shouldn't be surprised that a player who has trouble controlling himself on the field has just as much trouble reigning himself in off it. And yes, Harrison has every right to be frustrated -- at the lockout, at the NFL's seemingly hypocritical campaign for player safety, at losing the Super Bowl. But he also has to be ready to deal with the consequences, whether they come from his own locker room or, more likely, the league head office.
Claiming he was misquoted, or taken out of context, or simply "James being James" just isn't going fly. At some point, James Harrison is going to have to start taking some personal responsibility. If he doesn't want to be known for delivering cheap shots, maybe he should stop taking them in the media.

Staff-recommended reading from the
KPL catalog.
Brown University sophomore Lindsay Harrison and her mother were best friends, and she and her two brothers usually spoke on the phone with her several times every day. So in March of 2006, when their mom didn't show up for work in the morning and wasn't answering their phone calls, Lindsay and her brothers knew immediately that there was a serious problem. In Missing, Lindsay Harrison chronicles the frantic days of searching following the disappearance of her mother, and then the days bleeding into years after her mother is found, as Lindsay examines her mother's life and her own childhood more closely, trying to pinpoint where things went so terribly wrong.

I'm looking to get a new gaming headset, and was wondering if anyone had experience with any (good or bad)?
I only have onboard audio, so either USB or 3.5mm will work just fine. I want circumaural (I had my inner-ear replaced when I was a kid, so circumaural makes it easier for me to hear).
I have 0 experience when it comes to good brands/features for headsets, so any help would be great!
Oh, and the cable has to be at least 9-10ft long.
I also do a LOT of tv episode watching with these, and i'm getting a new 1080p 24" monitor in a few days, so I wouldn't count some movie watching out of the picture either.

When the clock ran down at Alex's football field on Friday night, the players, coaches and fans experienced something that hasn't happened for the better part of a decade.
For the first time since 2004, the Longhorns were on the winning end of a playoff result in their 60-14 drubbing of Ringwood. Few would have expected Alex, now 11-0 in 2013, to lose the game, but that didn't make the feeling of getting past the first round any less satisfying.
"I knew this was going to be a close game," head coach Matt Brand said. "These guys have never won a playoff game for Alex, so they were a little nervous heading into the game. I just told them at halftime to calm down and play their game, and we came out with 38 unanswered points. It gets that monkey off our back."
While the defense clearly did its job by holding the opposition to just two touchdowns, the Alex offense scaled new heights against a Ringwood team that seemed to grow more helpless as the game wore on. Running back Kyle Thornburg was almost unstoppable with 190 yards off just six carries. Senior Jose Ochoa was just as prolific with 195 yards off 16 carries.
Sophomore Dalton Alcorn had one of his best games at quarterback, completing 10 of 14 passes for 200 yards and four touchdowns. For a run-oriented team like Alex, this is perhaps the most dangerous statistic for any future opponent. The Longhorns have unveiled a brand new weapon at just the right time.
"It makes me feel better knowing we have the ability to air it out," Brand said. "I think we're still a 70 percent running team, but I think it balances out our offense."
None of this would be possible, however, without an offensive line Brand says is the key to their success.

ASU knocked off Louisiana, 77-53, and opened SBC play this year with a 60-57 win at FIU. The Red Wolves also have non-conference win over Austin Peay, who the Raiders beat earlier this season.

Jones eclipsed 1,000 career points in the first half and scored over 20 for the first time since registering 24 at Tennessee Tech. Rowe added 11 rebounds for her 40th double-double of her career. The Blue Raiders (7-5, 2-1 Sun Belt) won despite shooting just 39.4 percent (26-of-66) from the field. Middle Tennessee made up for an off-night shooting by forcing 25 North Texas (2-9, 1-1 Sun Belt) turnovers, turning those into 23 points. Midway in the second half, the two sides traded one-point leads until a Laken Leonard triple and an Elie fastbreak layup put Middle Tennessee in front 52-48. North Texas battled back and tied the game 61-61 on a Sara Stanley layup. Rowe broke the tie with 3:40 to play on a jumper in the lane, making the score 63-61. Stanley split a pair of free throws at the 1:56 mark to get the Mean Green within one, 63-62. With 41 seconds left, Bre Anna Dawkins drove to the basket and scored to give North Texas a one-point lead, 64-63. On Middle Tennessee's last possession, Rowe found Elie for the eventual game-winning three that made the score 66-64.

An hour-long special, now available at newschannel5.com, looks back at a decade of exclusive investigations by the NewsChannel 5 Investigates team -- investigations that have made a difference and won the nation's most prestigious journalism awards.
"10 Years of NewsChannel 5 Investigates" first aired on NewsChannel 5 on Christmas Day. It looks back at some of the most compelling moments from the team's 10-year history.
"To be able to take stock of the journey so far was rewarding," said chief investigative reporter Phil Williams.
"When you look back at all that the entire team has accomplished over the past decade, you see our commitment to acting as a watchdog, exposing potential dangers to our families and looking out for scams that affect our viewers' wallets."
To view the special, go to the "10 Years of NewsChannel 5 Investigates" page and click on Part 1. Other parts will automatically follow. Selected commercials promoting NewsChannel 5 investigations from the past decade are also available for viewing.
The NewsChannel 5 Investigates brand was developed in the fall of 1998 after Williams join the NewsChannel 5 staff, complementing the station's already strong commitment to journalism that served Middle Tennessee and Southern Kentucky.
Photojournalist Bryan Staples joined the team in 1999.
Phil's first investigation tested security in state buildings. Since then, he's exposed no-bid contracts given to friends of former Gov. Don Sundquist, exorbitant spending by University of Tennessee president John Shumaker, ethical misconduct by former Sen. John Ford and other state lawmakers, ticket fixing in local courts and misconduct by U.S. Army recruiters.
Williams and Staples have been honored with the duPont-Columbia University Award and the George Foster Peabody Award -- both considered equivalents of the Pulitzer Prize -- along with the prestigious George Polk Award and numerous other national awards.
In 1999, Jennifer Kraus headed the ground-breaking investigation into thefts by employees at the Feed the Children warehouse in Nashville. She became a full-time member of the NewsChannel 5 Investigates team in 2003.
Her investigations into shady loan practices at Bill Heard Chevrolet and neglect at the Tennessee State Veterans Homes also won national awards, including a coveted Edward R. Murrow Award.
With NewsChannel 5's commitment to investigative journalism, the team has grown. Producer Kevin Wisniewski, reporter Ben Hall and photojournalist Iain Montgomery joined the NewsChannel 5 Investigates team in recent years.

Schemata Workshop will present an informational session called "What is Cohousing" at Shoreline City Hall (17500 Midvale Avenue North, Seattle, WA 98133) on Wednesday, September 26, 2012 from 7:00pm to 8:30pm.
Cohousing is an intentional neighborhood where residents know and care about each other. While there is a high regard for privacy, residents actively build community through frequent shared meals, social events and work parties. People interested in cohousing typically value mentorship, sharing resources, and living lightly on the earth. The concept was imported from Denmark in the late 80's and there are now over 120 built communities in the US.
This free informational session is open to those who are seeking an alternative way of living – independently owned housing that is also community oriented and cooperatively managed. This session will feature lots of photos of built communities around North America. Homeowners, renters, families and children are all welcome.
Schemata Workshop is an architectural collaborative in Seattle, WA, started in 2004 by Grace Kim and Michael Mariano. In 2010, they received the Livable Communities Award from AARP and the National Association of Home Builders for the Daybreak Cohousing project in Portland, Oregon. Grace is a registered architect in Washington and Oregon and served for four years on the board of the Cohousing Association of the United States. In 2008, Grace was awarded the AIA National Young Architects Award and in 2009 Schemata Workshop was awarded the City of Seattle Mayor's Small Business Award.

Apple Lemon-Lime Eternal Affiliation
A Loss of Interest, Desire, and Direction
is about slighty off-tasting soda and breaking up or depression or nothing.
A Dragon in Genesis 6:7
The music is informed by these words: "A lightning strike, and you count the miles and wait for sound. Your windows are open again and your roof is falling in. Soon, it's day time for a flash. As they try to relax, you're heading for the hills again and the water keeps on rising. Noah floats away. Hope the boats okay. No one tells you why Noah won't let you stay dry. A spark and your heart stops, warm from all the raindrops. You're above it all again, lying on the sea bed. A red sunrise and rainbows are technicolor gravestones. You're just nothing, again because everything ends."
Identity Crisis I
was written for saxophonist Jim Fusik — with whom I regularly collaborate. It is the first in a series of pieces for the different saxophone instruments and represents my intent to explore the virtuosic side of these instruments.
At Play
was composed with the image of two young children playing in mind. While things are always pleasant in the beginning, all it takes is one small act of childish tomfoolery to turn giggles into fierce territorial yelping. It can only be one person's toy, after all. That being said, once in awhile, a peaceful agreement to share can arise. It's a nice scene, but hopefully there is a slightly more complex exchange going on between instruments in this piece. Loosely in sonata form, the flute dominates the melody in the exposition and excludes the violin from participating. The development begins gradually as the violin begins to overpower the flute, and the violin's theme is introduced in full. After a rhythmic and motivic argument, we arrive at the recapitulation to find a much healthier relationship being shared between the two instruments.
Hiking the Cascade Creek Trail
The Cascade Creek hiking trail in the Tongass National Forest, Alaska sports a luscious array of natural environments that include water front beaches, forest, waterfalls, cliffs, and mountains in just four miles of hiking trails. One of the highlights of the trail are the high, dense trees that form a canyon-like atmosphere around the trail as well as the beautiful views of cliffs and waterfalls that can be seen from the trailhead at Swan Lake. Hiking the Cascade Creek Trail was inspired by this magnificent trail and represents the change in environment that is all connected by a common element. The piece calls for found, non-resonant percussion instruments to symbolize the isolation of the trail among these changing environments, while the music maintains a common theme that is developed throughout the piece.
Rounded Angles
was written during the first year of Zach's graduate work at the University of Iowa while studying with Professor Lawrence Fritts. Originally intended for solo clarinet, the piece was to feature the acrobatic nature and agility of the instrument and performer, but during the composition process, the switch to alto saxophone and percussion provided the perfect means for Zach's ideas. Moving from one performer to two performers introduced a new symbiotic element to the piece, which can be heard throughout. The title reflects the angular and round, duple and triple melodic gestures, which further enhances the symbiotic relationship between the two players.
When I think of the marimba, the first thing that comes to mind is its warm, resonate tone. Unfortunately, when I continue to think of the marimba, the next thing that comes to mind is its warm, resonant tone. While I definitely knew I wanted to utilize this rich sound, I also knew I wanted to provide a contrasting element, which, in this case, ended up being cymbals. The title, Buzz, refers to the link that helps connect these opposing sonorities.
Bridge Suite
was commissioned by saxophonist, Joel Vanderheyden. While discussing ideas for the piece, it quickly became apparent that we were both interested in a composition that was influenced not only by the classical world, but also the world of jazz and rock. Bridge Suite is the result of the search for this "middle ground."
Pan Thwarted
is a semi-Greek mythology inspired comedic dialogue between the flute and the steel pan written for Christina Guerrero and Matt Potts. The flute is a nymph, and the pan is the god Pan (pun definitely intended). He sneaks up to capture her and eventually succeeds. Pan is victorious and the nymph decides to lure him into a false sense of security and rejoices with him. They play quickly in unison and as things calm down, the nymph begins to sneak off. Pan realizes too late what is happening and tries to recapture her, but she has gained too much momentum and flies off. Pan, hurt and confused, looks for her and ends up grumbling away.
Having always written music that lies in the realm of loud, intense, and lengthy, IV is an attempt at the opposite.
on the Spiritual
is the second movement of my chamber symphony, Musings
, which explores the three pillars of our being – the physical, the spiritual, and the intellectual. As far back as ancient Greece, these concepts were subject to debate as to their meaning, prompting artists, philosophers, composers, architects and others to offer their interpretation of them. In my symphony, I try to give such interpretations through three sound experiences. By means of association, I explore each concept through one musical parameter that takes a central role in a movement. Thus, the first movement,
on the Physical, explores the concept through texture, while the third,
on the Intellectual, through rhythm.
The second movement explores the concept of spirituality primarily through timbre and its organization in space. Closely tied to its harmonic/pitch counterpart (a simple, yet greatly dilated, i – V progression), the timbre undergoes a gradual transformation from a horizontal conception to a vertical one. (The concept of timbre here is restricted to that of the instruments of the ensemble and their various combinations.) This was achieved by dividing the total pitch space into multiple note-groups, assigning particular timbres to them and manipulating them through various rhythmic and textural processes. The movement features a prominent structural shape – < > – which permeates the form, all micro/macro structures, as well as all other parameters of the movement.

The challenge for Westport's finance officials to tackle the town's swollen retiree medical payments liability comes at a time of change at the town hall and the Board of Finance.
Town Finance Director John Kondub, who has been in the role since 2008, will retire at the start of February 2012. He has also been acting personnel director since Tom Hamilton left that position earlier this year.
Board of Finance chair Helen Garten has long called for new town hall bargaining on employee contracts to help squeeze down the town's long-term unfunded other post employee benefits (OPEB) liability, which stands at close to $80 million.
The cost of OPEB ``is simply too high,'' said Garten. The change of finance director, without a personnel director in place, ``is a complicating factor'' she said.
Garten said she believes a new personnel boss should be hired to take the lead on employee negotiations. First Selectman Gordon Joseloff did not respond to questions regarding a new personnel director.
In addition to the change at the town hall, four seats on the seven-member Board of Finance are opening up at the November municipal elections.
Garten will stay on the board, as will Avi Kaner and Brian Stern. Ken Wirfel is seeking a second term and Tom Lasersohn is also up for reelection. Allyson Stollenwerck and Ed Ianonne are stepping down.
Michael Rea, currently chairman of the Finance Committee for the Representative Town Meeting, is one of the Republican nominees seeking election to the Board of Finance.
There's a ``whole array of financial challenges,'' said Rea. He too stressed that sustainable employee benefit plans need to be put in place.
``We'll drown in the benefits we're giving unless we do something about it,'' he said. ``You have to attack the [OPEB] problem in many areas. It's not going to happen overnight. We've got some real challenging times.''
The Board of Finance agreed Wednesday to put aside $8.2 million this year into the OPEB fund.
The increased focus on OPEB comes after the town's actuarial firm discovered earlier this year that a previous report from 2008 significantly undercounted the number of relevant employees. It also underestimated medical inflation costs.
``This should be a slap in the face for all of us'' said Rea. ``There's still a lot of questions. Do we really understand what went wrong?''
Rea, who has served on the RTM for nearly 12 years, called for closer oversight of the operations of the finance department following the OPEB report error. That estimate put the OPEB liability at $50 million.

With Christmas Eve approaching fast, it's time to break out your bayberry candles! Bayberry wax is more expensive than most waxes, so if you're looking for the essence of Bayberry, try Candlewic's Bayberry Scent.
*Credit goes to Jaxx Candles
When the first settlers arrived on our shores, every moment was one of survival. Everything was in short supply including candles. Generally candles were made of tallow (animal fat) which tend to smoke and give off an odor. They can turn rancid as well.
It didn't take long for the early colonists to discover that the abundant bayberry bush had berries that would give off a waxy residue when boiled. They learned to collect and save the bayberry wax that would rise to the surface of the water and make them into taper candles.
The bayberry tapers burned longer and cleaner than the tallow version. Unfortunately, it takes a lot of bayberries to make enough wax to make a candle (about 15 pounds of bayberries to make one pound of wax). These bayberry tapers were a real treasure to the colonists who saved them for special occasions. To have a bayberry candle was a luxury to be saved and relished. It became the tradition to burn your bayberry candle on Christmas or New Years eve to bring blessings of abundance in the coming year. It is not known who actually came up with the traditional bayberry candle poem, but the tradition continues to this day:
Candlewic wishes you happy holidays and a happy new year!

---- — BRENTWOOD — A former Salem middle school teacher was sentenced this afternoon to four to seven years in prison for stealing thousands of dollars in jewelry.
Stephen Pierce, 47, of Salem pleaded guilty in Rockingham Superior Court to receiving stolen property. He was sentenced by Judge Marguerite Wageling.
Pierce faced two felony counts of receiving stolen property following his arrest last summer for stealing more than $33,000 worth of watches and jewelry from friends in Atkinson, then pawning them.
That spring, Pierce was charged with stealing a camera from Woodbury School, where he taught eighth grade. Pierce said in an interview after his arrest he didn't know why he stole the camera, admitting he had been depressed.
He was placed on administrative leave, but later resigned. Pierce received a suspended seven-day jail sentence and a $750 fine.
Shortly before Pierce was scheduled to plead guilty in the Atkinson case, he was indicted on a new stolen property charge by a grand jury in Februrary. The charge alleged he stole and pawned more jewelry from a North Andover couple.
Pierce has been free on $5,000 personal recognizance bail.

It is common for a BOM to have a wide variety of components/items associated in it (For Example Screws, Washers, Nuts, Hardware, Motors and sub-assemblies). Many would organize those components/items in more than one workspace within PLM360.
In order to mass create/update BOMs of a specific product practically, the import tool must allow access to add/remove 'child' items from other workspaces - Especially if PLM360 allows you to do it manually.
Having access to only the 'Parent' workspace in the import tool is impractical. This either results in poor item organization within the workspace when trying to make the import tool work OR results the user performing a tedious manual process.
Overall, I think the import tool is a great feature for BOMs; however it still needs to incorporate a multi-workspace functionality to serve its purpose practically.
Regards,Amrit Singh
Does this allow access to a parent child relationship if the parent and child are in different workspaces?
Please revise the status on this request.
The status was set to "Solution Provided" however, I don't see how the Solution solves Amrit's original issue.
It does not solve the inability to import BOMs where child items resides in a different workspace.

Enid News & Eagle
ENID, Okla. —
The goal of Autry Technology Center is for its students to leave the classroom as prepared as possible. In one class, it has registered a 100 percent success rate at passing a difficult national certification test.
The radiography program is a post-high school graduation course aimed at an associate degree in applied science. The program teaches students how to use diagnostic images or X-rays from various parts of the body to make a diagnosis. The images must be well done to assist the doctor in making an accurate diagnosis. Radiography is a two-year program, making the student eligible for 52 hours of college credits.
Radiography was one of the programs highlighted Sunday at Autry Technology Center's open house.
Program Director Sharon Johnson said the program starts after general education classes are completed. After receiving the applied sciences degree, students may attend the University of Oklahoma and receive a Bachelor of Science. They can work in hospitals, free-standing clinics, doctor's offices or sales and education. They also can go into other fields such as sports medicine, or specialize in children or the elderly.
The courses required for completion of the Radiologic Technologist course include fundamentals of radiological sciences and health care; human structure and function for radiography; pharmacology and drug administration; advanced imaging; radiation production and characteristics; and modality applications, among others. A total of 2,778 class hours are involved.
For a radiology aide certificate, 705 hours are required.
"It's quite extensive. The students work very hard," Johnson said. They spend 37 hours per week in class or with patients under supervision of trained professionals. The students work at both Enid hospitals and an orthopedic clinic. Right out of school, students can make $30,000 a year or more.
They take their national board certification test after completion of classes, and Autry Tech students have a 100 percent pass rate. Only one student has had to take the test twice since the first graduating class in 1991.
Clinical coordinator and instructor Danny Gray, master of education, called the program the best in Oklahoma. Many of those students have stayed in the Enid area, serving Enid hospitals and clinics.
"The two Enid hospitals came to us and requested the program. They were also instrumental in starting the program," Johnson said. "The commitment to the community has been excellent."
Gray said the average age of radiographers in the state is 45-46, but there are a number who are older and considering retirement. Due to the current economy, those retirement plans have been put on hold, but as it improves, Johnson said they will begin to follow through on retirement plans and more jobs will open. The degree also can allow the students to receive further training, obtain a master's degree and apply for administrative positions, which pay well.
Johnson said the field is very technical, and teaching it begins in simplicity. The students learn about radiation protection. It is not to be feared, but to be respected. As long as the proper precautions are taken, there should be no problems with it.
"It's just like having a fireplace in your home. You have to know how to handle it," she said.
They start with simple X-rays, such as those from the chest. The students learn how to position the patient so they can obtain a proper image, then how to look at an image and determine whether it is a good one. Johnson said the technicians do not interpret the images; that is done by the physicians. Their job is to provide the best image possible to aid the doctor in making a determination.
"There are over 200 diseases that can be diagnosed with a chest X-ray. If you don't put it on there, it can't be diagnosed," she said.
After completing radiography, students can go into CT scanning, MRIs and other types of imaging. There is an MRI program at St. Mary's Regional Medical Center, and their equipment is used by students in the Autry Tech program, Johnson said.
"Jobs will always be there. Hospitals are open 24/7, and there will always be hospitals," she said.
The biggest advance in imaging has been the development of digital imaging, which gives physicians an opportunity to see all sides and close up; even color images of an injured area. Johnson said it is like the original black-and-white televisions of the 1950s and the 3-D and Blu-ray technology of today.
Another Autry Tech program that helps students learn is the diesel automotive area. Michael Jameson has been a diesel technician for more than 40 years and a teacher for the past six. Diesel technician jobs are increasing across the United States and in the Enid area. Within 100 miles of Enid, there are 27 companies in need of diesel technicians, and Jameson said some of those companies may need multiple technicians. Enrollment also is increasing in the diesel classes.
"They choose to come here," Jameson said. "In the next three years, we expect even more."
Diesel technology classes also were highlighted at the open house.
Standing in front of a dissected propane powered tractor, Jameson said diesel technology is the same technology that is applied to compressed natural gas and propane engines. The only difference is the method of firing the engine. Gasoline-powered vehicles use spark fire, and diesel uses compression-fired methods. The internal workings are the same, he said.
"If you are a mechanic, you can work on everything. We teach engines here. The students know how to break down a problem, find the problem and fix the problem," he said. Jameson likes to say graduates from diesel automotive can work on anything from a light plant to the boss's Mercedes.
Students also learn to work on brakes, which requires knowledge of the different suspension systems of an 18-wheeler. They take brakes apart in the shop to know how those systems work.
"This is the greatest job in the world. I get to build engines, make noise, play with the boys, and get paid," Jameson said.

Bolingbrook Mayor Roger Claar talked business, raised money for charity and spoke of (possibly) his last term as mayor during Thursday's 2013 State of the Village luncheon.
The Bolingbrook Area Chamber of Commerce hosts the annual event. More than 700 people were in attendance, topping the turnout from 2012.
Claar said he's 99 percent sure that he is running for his final term as mayor in April, though he warned the audience to not "order (their) yard signs yet." Claar is running unopposed in the April 9 election.
Two local charities received donations from the event. Find out which ones and how much they received.
Claar spoke of new development in the village, both retail and industrial, including the additions of Zip Fitness and Autumn Leaves. Bolingbrook saw a 6 percent increase in retail sales from Q1 2011 to Q1 2012 and a 5.5 percent increase in sales tax revenue in that same time period.Retail sales Sales tax revenue 2012 $1,302,000,000 $27,960,000 2011 $1,227,000,000 $26,500,000 2010 $1,060,000,000 $23,200,000 2009 $1,025,000,000 $22,200,000 2008 $1,142,000,000 $24,900,000 2007 $1,083,000,000 $23,427,205.88 2006 $997,000,000 $21,400,000 2005 $875,000,000 $16,700,000 2004 $845,000,000 $14,700,000
Editor's note: Data provided by the village for annual State of the Village addresses.
The mayor said he often hears concerns about empty storefronts in Bolingbrook. In 2012, Bolingbrook had a retail vacancy of 7.5 percent of its total retail inventory, or 470,241 square feet. In 2011, Bolingbrook had a retail vacancy of 6.9 percent, or 430,389 square feet.
"America is taking a hit," Claar said. "People have to understand that every time they buy online they put the nail in the coffin of the brick and mortar stores."
Claar said the success of the Promenade Bolingbrook has buffered the loss of other businesses, including major chains such as Circuit City and Borders. He mentioned his support for a local tax on online purchases to keep physical stores in business. The mayor also spoke of his concern of letting retail space be used for non-retail buildings, such as schools or churches.
"If we lose those spaces to non-retail, what will happen when the retail comes back?" Claar asked.
If the village loses sales tax revenue, it will need to look to other sources of revenue to pay for its bills, he said. Claar said in his 2012 State of the Village Address that the village staff had been recently been reduced 30 percent, from 524 to 366.Total village levy Property tax rate 2012 $16,346,000 $0.8331 2011 $14,984,000 $0.6968 2010 $15,110,000 $0.6667 2009 $14,900,000 $0.6202 2008 $16,090,000 $0.6202 2007 $13,893,872 $0.609 2006 $12,630,000 $0.67 2005 $11,940,000 $0.67 2004 $11,530,000 $0.71
Editor's note: Data is provided by the village via State of the Village presentations. Property tax rate is per $100 EAV. EAV (equalized assessed valuation) has fallen each year since 2008.
Check Patch next week for more data on retail vacancies, Bolingbrook population trends and more.

Domestic Violence in Any Form Can Impact the Terms of Your Divorce
January 30, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Domestic violence in a marital relationship can take many forms, including emotional, physical or mental abuse. For many victims of domestic violence, divorce is the one way to stop the abuse for good.
In the divorce process, there are special considerations that come into play when one of the parties has been a victim of domestic abuse. It is important to address these issues and retain a
divorce attorney experienced with domestic violence
A 209A order can protect you from abuse
domestic abuse
is ongoing, the most important first step is to act to protect yourself, your children or any other potential victims. Under Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 209A, you may seek a restraining order to protect you and your children from further domestic violence. A restraining order will establish a physical and legal buffer zone between you and the abusive spouse. Generally, a court order will be available to you if your abuser harms you physically or tries to harm you physically, makes you afraid that serious harm is going to happen, or threatens, pressures or forces you to have sex.
Create and retain financial documents, records of abuse
Whether or not you get a restraining order, there are other steps you can take that will help you in your divorce if you are experiencing any form of domestic violence. For one thing, you want to keep a copy of all financial records -- things like bank statements, credit card records and tax forms. You should keep these records hidden from your abusive spouse, and should not let your spouse know you have made copies.
You also want to carefully document your interactions with your abuser. For example, make a written record of instances of abuse that includes exact dates and times; retain medical records and take photographs of any injury that results from abuse; acquire the police reports and witness statements for any incidents of abuse that are reported to the authorities. These records will help a Massachusetts court determine the terms of a restraining order as well as terms of your divorce, like child custody, visitation arrangements and property division.
Reach out to a Massachusetts family law attorney for help
Abusers often use domestic violence to establish power over victims by making them afraid. This means it is common for abusers to seek control of the marital property and finances, making it difficult for victims to seek help.
But, there is help available for victims. If you retain an attorney and seek legal protections, you can not only end abuse, you can allay your fears of losing custody of your children or sacrificing your economic power by pursing divorce. You should not be afraid of an abusive spouse in divorce; on the contrary, your attorney can help parlay your spouse's bad behavior into stronger arguments that will bolster your case for custody and a larger share of marital money and assets.
If you've been a victim of domestic violence, it is only natural to feel apprehension, even fear. But, if you are open to receiving help, all it takes is one phone call to get the process moving on your new life. Get in touch with a Massachusetts family law attorney today to pursue the justice you deserve.

I understand that in TurboTax I need to enter a separate K-1 for each entity in my EPD K-1 (EPD, ETE, ETP, etc.) but do I need to enter one even for the entities that show all zeros like Regence?
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Regency has a 1 in Ordinary business income, so is not really all zeros. Looks like ETE is, however.
What happens if you don't enter a separate K-1 for each entity, but rather sum the values in one TurboTax K-1 entry for EPD? It seems that the values reported on the EPD K-1 are sums of the parts that are broken down on the Supplemental K-1 Info Statement.

By CHRIS AGEE
Officials at one local company are again speaking out against what they feel are unfair regulatory practices.
Daniel Kirsch, founding president of Electromedical Products International Inc., said this is the eighth time in the company's history the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has targeted the company's product.
"The FDA wants us to go through a pre-market approval process," he explained, which would treat the company's Alpha-Stim product – which has been used for 32 years to treat anxiety, insomnia, depression and pain – "like a new device."
He said such compliance would be unfeasible given Alpha-Stim's long record of use.
"It's not even possible for us to meet their criteria," he said.
Kirsch explained the latest complication is similar in nature to a number of previous situations.
"In 2011 and again this month, they did the exact same thing they did in the '90s," he said, noting his company makes every effort to comply with federal regulations as they exist and the FDA responds by ordering him to return to the drawing board and begin the approval process again.
"This is onerous work," he said. "All my top executives worked day and night."
Additionally, he wants Alpha-Stim downgraded to a less-regulated device in light of its safe use by millions of clients.
After complying with FDA demands two years ago, he said the process concluded with a panel meeting ostensibly designed to foster expert testimony.
"There were no experts," Kirsch alleged, calling the entire process a "kangaroo court."
He said they used questionable research, including a French study he said involved a product different than Alpha-Stim.
"They kept telling the panel it has the potential to cause seizures," he said, explaining his side of the discussion was limited to 45 minutes in the morning and he was unable to respond to any allegations by government witnesses.

Mitt Romney's campaign has tapped a Brookline resident to oversee the search for a vice president that will fit his presidential ticket.
"I have selected someone who has been a counselor of mine for a number of years, Beth Myers. She was my chief of staff when I was governor," the Belmont resident told ABC News' Diane Sawyer in an interview which ran last night.
Myers also tweeted about the decision on her newly-created account @BethMyers2012,
The Boston Globe observed that Myers' decision will be one of the most-scrutinized of the campaign, in a piece this morning, and that Romney is keeping with a core of advisers that have been with him for over a decade.
Myers worked as Romney's chief of staff while he was Governor of Massachusetts, and managed his 2008 presidential campaign. The Globe also notes that The Shawmut Group, which she set up, consulted with the Scott Brown campaign, helping lead to his election in 2010.
Some potential running mates' names floated in a USA Today article yesterday, include Florida Ohio Senator Rob Portman, Senator Marco Rubio, Reresentative Paul Ryan of Wisconsin and Governors Chris Christie of New Jersey and Nikki Haley of South Carolina.
However, Romney said in the interview that it is "way too early" to start talking about names.
