... make it more than parties. Originally a somber day of observance, a byproduct of the Civil War Memorial Day has morphed into a 3 day weekend where its original significance is often lost. Memorial Day-
1- Try to photograph something that shows our military history, the effect of war on families of vets, or veterans themselves. In Naples there is Freedom Park & the Veterans Memorial at Cambier Park. Cape Coral has the Iwo Jima Memorial. Say "Thank you". The day is based on those who didn't return from war but anyone who has served deserves recognition.
2- You may get very evocative photos like the one seen here. I took the photo only to record the sadness some people are forced to endure on this day and as a reminder that others sacrificed for our barbeque.
3- The history of Memorial Day is fascinating with its local and political twists and turns, well worth the read.
So enjoy the day and if you're out this weekend with the camera capture something with meaning and emotion behind it, you'll be glad you did and you may just take a great photo...Gordon.

Search process under scrutinyJune 25,2014As the Rutland Northeast Supervisory Union concludes the superintendent search process, we surveyed the search and interview committee members in order to debrief the process and be prepared to make changes for future high-profile searches in our community. We appreciate the hours of work the committee members accomplished to seek qualified candidates, review 22 applications, interview four candidates for consideration, conduct over 60 reference checks on the chosen finalist and listen to community feedback prior to making a decision. The desire of the committees to be transparent and inclusive is evident in the results of the survey, as well as their actions.
The survey was completed by 24 members and helped to identify strengths of the process and suggestions for change. Strengths of the process outlined above included adequate and broad representation on the committees and an adequate timeline for the search process. Also, site visits and reference checks were noted as strengths, with reference checks described as over the top, in a positive way.
Suggestions for change focused on transparency and communication. Recommendations included informing the public in weekly updates which include the full process and progress along the way within legal capacity; explaining up front the limitations of open meeting laws and reference checks and what can be shared publicly; and having a clerk support the work of the chair and the committees due to the intensity of the search process.
The RNESU board appreciates the work that was done on this search and the feedback that was received. Suggestions and recommendations will be incorporated into future high profile searches. The board also is considering a session on open meeting laws this summer to help ensure that it is not only followed by the board but understood by the community.
(Board members,
Rutland Northeast Supervisory Union)

— Indiana voters have approved a constitutional amendment that will make property tax limits more permanent.
The caps limit property tax bills to 1 percent of homes' assessed values, with 2 percent caps on farmland and rental property and 3 percent limits on business property.
The caps are already in state law and saved taxpayers $478 million this year, but that's meant less cash available for local governments and schools.
Supporters say constitutional caps will give taxpayers more protection and stability. Opponents warn that constitutional tax limits will be more difficult to amend should changes be desired in the future.

Introducing RealtyQR for Real Estate Agents
Devo Consulting is proud to introduce RealtyQR for real estate agents. RealtyQR offers real estate agents the chance to have a QR code for their agent profile and the properties that they sell. In fact, potential buyers will be able to scan, with their smartphones, the QR codes and find out information about the agent and the characteristics of the house they are in front of or they just have found on the newspaper. In addition, RealtyQR will let potential buyers find other properties that the agent is selling close to their location. QR Codes, when properly used, can only take your marketing to new levels!
- Potential buyers will be able to upload photos, a complete description, possibly a video and, most importantly, several methods to instantly contact the listing agent.
- The only service that offers completely reusable signage. When a listing sells, simply remove the sign from one property and place it in front of another.
- The software determines where the person is and displays information for the property.
RealtyQR is not intended to replace the MLS database or even your own website, but it is an inexpensive, ready-to-go, easy-to-use tool that gives you instant exposure and unlimited potential to reach one of the 50-60 million people in the US and Canada using a smartphone every day.

Niagara Gazette — Falls police narcotics detectives, doggedly following the trail of a single drug dealer, ended up with three men in custody after a series of Friday night arrests.
Investigators said a raid from a week earlier, on Good Friday, was the starting point of their investigation.
"This began with a raid of an apartment in the 500 block of Ferry Avenue," Narcotics Division Capt. Dave LeGault said. "It was a nuisance apartment, where people were smoking crack and doing heroin, but there was a suspect (dealer) we were targeting and he wasn't there at that time."
Detectives were looking for Barry Frain, a previously convicted drug dealer, paroled from prison just three weeks earlier.
"He was on our radar almost immediately (after he got out of prison)," LeGault said. "He was very active right away. He was selling crack, marijuana, heroin, anything he could get his hands on. So the detectives were tracking him all week."
By Friday, investigators had traced Frain to the Hospitality Inn motel in the 6700 block of Niagara Falls Boulevard. The same motel where they had busted a North Tonawanda man selling crack cocaine in mid-March.
"As we were at the motel (on Friday), there were all kinds of people coming and going, when they saw us, on foot," the narcotics captain said. "They'd walk up, turn around and it was like, 'I'm outta here.' It was almost like an open air drug market. It's sad."
Just as members of the Falls Police Emergency Response Team were preparing to hit Frain's motel room, their prime suspect bolted away in a car, trying to disguise his identity as he passed uncover officers.
With help from Patrol Division officers, detectives were able to pull over Frain's car and take him into custody.
Frain appeared to be heading out to make a sale. Officers found him in possession of marijuana, crack and heroin.

Hearing canceled for SpanosJanuary 30,2013Hearing canceled for Spanos
A hearing to weigh the evidence to hold accused murderer Alex Spanos in jail without the option of bail has been canceled.
Spanos, 24, pleaded innocent last week to a charge of second-degree murder in a case involving the death of 17-year-old Rutland High School student Carly Ferro.
Ferro was killed last fall in a crash on Cleveland Avenue in the city that police say was caused by Spanos who was allegedly huffing from an aerosol can to get high while driving.
Because Spanos is facing a potential lifetime jail sentence, prosecutors asked that he be held in jail without the option of bail until his trial. While Spanos has been incarcerated since the Sept. 26 crash on $200,000 bail, Spanos attorney requested a hearing that would have required the prosecution to reveal enough evidence to warrant holding him in jail.
But the hearing, scheduled to take place Tuesday, was canceled by Spanos defense attorney who withdrew the request for a hearing on Monday.MORE IN This Just InRICHARD'S POOR ALMANACK: Workers on this day in 1984 in a Cheshire, England, peat bog find well-preserved human remains at least 2,000 years dead, born this day in 1843, Robert Todd Lincoln, eldest son of the president, present at three assassinations. 0Rutland Herald content editor Rich Alcott uploads data direct to your head: Workers on this day...

Driving up and down Pacific Coast Highway twice daily for two decades from Malibu to Junior's Deli, David Saul said he's not sure what he will do when the restaurant closes on Jan. 1.
Junior's Deli, which opened in 1959 Pico Boulevard in 1959 and moved in 1967 to its current location on Westwood Boulevard in West Los Angeles, is closing due to a dispute over rent. Saul co-owns the business with his brother, John.
"It's like grieving a death. My employees are like my family. I'm losing my loyal customers," Saul told Malibu Patch. "… On Jan. 1 when I open my, eyes I'm not going to know where to go."
Saul, who serves as a Public Safety Commissioner in Malibu, said the closure comes as his family is grieving the loss of his mother, who died three months ago. His father and Junior's founder Marvin Saul, died last year at the age of 82.
"It's not about me. They're losing a staple on the Westside," he said.
Saul said he has been on the phone non-stop to try to find his 95 employees new jobs. Some of them have been working at Junior's for 40 years, he said.
Saul said he's looked into reopening in Malibu, but the rents are too high.
"If I could find a place that had reasonable rent, I would get backers together and open in a heartbeat," he said.
It's not just about location for Saul, who said he also wants to provide a quality menu at a reasonable price.
"It's an iconic restaurant. It's the heart of the Westside. It's the place you come for comfort food. We've had generations and generations," Saul said.

It's as if Katy Perry sang her song about the real estate market, 'you're hot then you're cold, you're yes then you're no, you're in then you're out, you're up then you're down.'
With all of the ups and downs of housing data that flows across the news ticker, you have to sometimes wonder what to believe. National and local trends don't always align, foreclosures and short-sales hit some areas harder than others, inventory is high in one town but not another, etc.
All of these factor into what can be a real estate roller coaster ride of information. However, when everyone's Magic 8 Ball seems to be aligned – with all signs pointing up – you can begin to see the longer-term trends taking shape.
We pulled together some of the latest housing data sound bites from national, local and industry sources. Each seems to be singing from the same playbook, which is a big step towards real estate harmony for homeowners.
As always -- whether the market is up or down -- it is equally important to consult a professional who can orchestrate the ins and outs of the real estate market for your town and neighborhood.

A KOTA Territory airport will receive grant money to explore possible improvement projects.
The Sheridan County Airport will develop a new master plan.
The project costs nearly $398,000. All but almost $10,000 is covered by grants from the federal aviation administration and the state aeronautics division. The plan involves looking into any infrastructure improvements necessary.
Airport Manager John Stopka says the plan could include building a new terminal building.
"It was built in the 1930s, added onto three times over the years, and it's small. So we're going to do a feasibility study on it," said Stopka.
The plan will also study why more and more local flyers are opting for airports in Billings, Casper, and Denver instead of flying from the Sheridan airport.

I'm not an AFL cheat: Trigg

Banned Adelaide Crows chief Steven Trigg says he's not an AFL cheat and blames public and time pressures for striking an illegal deal with Kurt Tippett.
Trigg says he feels "sick in the guts" about the once-secret deal with Tippett which led to him being suspended for six months from his position as Adelaide's chief executive.
The AFL commission banned Tippett for the initial 11 games of next year's premiership season after finding his agreement with the Crows broke the league's salary cap and draft rules.
The AFL fined the Crows $300,000 and imposed draft restrictions on the club next year, with their football operations manager Phil Harper also suspended for two months for his role in the Tippett affair.
Trigg denied he cheated the AFL but conceded he was "stretching the boundaries" of the league's laws when re-signing Tippett in 2009.
"I would very, very strongly deny cheating," Trigg told Adelaide radio station 5AA on Monday.
"Cheating is an unfair advantage, and I know there will be a school of thought that just by getting the (Tippett's) signature, you had an unfair advantage.
"You need to cop that.
"But in terms of did we pay more than we were supposed to in terms of the salary cap? No.
"Did we really get an advantage in terms of that trade clause in the end? No.
"The tabloids will go down a path of using that word (cheat).
"I just know, I need to look myself in the mirror forever on this … (I have a) quite really clear conscience."
The Adelaide board on Saturday voted that despite the damage caused, Trigg and Harper would return to their roles once serving their suspensions from January 1 next year.
"The text book would say in this situation, you step down, you step away, I know that," Trigg said.
"It is very unusual in these circumstances to dig in – and much less to have a board back you as the right person to keep going."
Of the illegal deal, Trigg said immense public and time pressures to re-sign Tippett, who walked out on the Crows at the end of the 2012 and nominated for the December 11 preseason draft, were factors.
"There were concerns about aspects of it, not necessarily essence of it," he said.
"It was a deal that was produced under pressure and under real time pressure as well.
Trigg said his credibility and trust within the AFL industry suffered "a little ding" from the Tippett saga but added he was "up for the fight" of restoring his reputation.© AAP 2014

The best bet for all involved and found guilty is to shut up and let it pass. However the Adelaide Football Clubs reputation has been tarnished and hopefully all clubs can learn a lesson, including players and managers.

The only thing worse than a cheat is someone who thinks that their actions were justified. Time and public pressures? Give me a break. Can you imagine what people in different industries could get away with if they used that rubbish excuse?

Updated 10:55 am 2/7: "As of last night, the victim's status is in critical condition and his family has not been notified," Art Montiel, California Highway Patrol Public Information Officer, said this morning.
Montiel also said that the victim was still in Stanford Hospital's care as of last night.
Updated 5:33 pm 2/6: According to Art Montiel, California Highway Patrol Public Information Officer, the victim is a 65-year-old male out of Sunnyvale. Montiel said today that CHP was notified about the incident at approximately 2:40 pm yesterday from a call made by an unknown person at a call box on Highway 1 located about 50 feet from the scene of the incident. The incident is still currently under investigation, according to Montiel.
"We didn't see any skid marks at the scene, for some unknown reason," Montiel said.
Montiel said that the driver was heading southbound on Highway 1 and made a right turn onto the embankment area and over the cliff. No guardrail is located at the section of Highway 1 where the incident occurred.
As of the time of publication, authorities have still not released the victim's name, so his condition is currently unknown, as well as whether he is still being treated at Stanford Hospital. Both the Sheriff's Office and California Highway Patrol have said the name of the victim cannot be released until next of kin is notified and his identity positively confirmed.
Information about when the CHP was notified has been inserted into the original published story below.
A man who drove his car off a cliff on a stretch of Highway 1 near the north end of Pescadero State Beach on Saturday afternoon triggered a joint emergency response which ended in a rescue that airlifted the victim to Stanford Hospital, according to Ari Delay, Coastside Fire Battalion Chief.
Coastside Fire, La Honda Fire Brigade, the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office, State Parks and American Medical Response (AMR) ambulance paramedics were called to the scene at approximately 3:05 p.m. after a dispatch from the fire department came through as a "man down at Pescadero State Beach," Delay said.
California Highway Patrol Art Montiel said that the CHP was notified about the incident at about 2:40 pm Saturday afternoon by an unknown person calling from one of the call boxes along Highway 1 located near the scene of the incident.
"We're not sure who initially called 911, but when we got to the scene, there were two or three people with the victim on the beach," Delay said.
According to Coastside Fire, the car had fallen 100 feet below the edge of the cliff and the victim was found 200 feet further on the beach.
Delay said that the victim's silver car was found upside down when the emergency response team arrived at the scene.
A lifeguard from State Parks and AMR paramedics drove a four-wheel drive vehicle a few miles down the freeway to rescue the victim, according to Coastside Fire.
"They drove down to where the waves were crashing against the cliff," Delay said, where the challenge, according to Delay, was to get through the tide coming up against the cliffs. "Sometimes they can and sometimes they can't get through [to the victim], depending on the tide," said Delay.
The team was able to get through the tide to rescue the victim, who was not identified by name, according to Delay.
"He was in critical condition while in our care," said Delay.
The victim was airlifted by Stanford's Life Flight Air Ambulance to Stanford Medical Center, according to Coastside Fire. Highway 1 was shut down at the scene while the incident was being handled, according to Sergeant Earles of the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office, and was reopened later in the day.
The victim's car was towed away, according to Delay.
While the victim's rescue was underway, a search for potential additional victims was conducted as well.
The Sheriff's Air Squadron conducted an aerial search, while firefighters constructed a rope rescue system to search for any additional victims in the vehicle or in the adjacent area, according to Coastside Fire.
"When people are ejected from a car like that, they can end up landing on the brush," said Delay.
No additional victims were found, according to Delay.
The current condition of the victim is not known at this time. Calls to the Sheriff's Office and the California Highway Patrol did not result in the victim's name being released, so it could not be confirmed whether the victim is still being treated at Stanford Medical Center at the time of publication.

- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
- In a very large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar and white sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Combine the flour, salt and baking soda; stir into the sugar mixture until well incorporated. Mix in oats, then stir in the chocolate chips, nuts, coconut and raisins. Drop by heaping teaspoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheets.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown. Let cookies cool for a few minutes on the cookie sheets before removing to wire racks to cool completely.

I work as a baker in a very busy cafe and this has become our most popular cookie. Thank you for this wonderful recipe!I always get a nice thick chewy cookie with consistent results everytime. I don't care for raisins, so i have never used them, but always add toffee bits instead for wonderful results. I am not understanding why some of you are getting a flat cookie, but what i do is just make sure i always use butter, make sure it is not too warm, and i never measure it out because 1 lb is 2 cups..no need to measure. I also always make sure to use a shiny aluminum sheet pan (which almost always gives the best results for cookie spreading),and i top it with parchment paper instead of greasing the sheet. I typically use a #40 scoop for reg size, or #20 for jumbo cookies. I Bake them just until set, and they are the perfect size and texture. HUGE seller. Good luck!
Okay, so I know this is my own recipe, but that makes me entitled to a review, right??? I had a friend who made these for Bunco one night, and she said she makes a batch of the dough, rolls it in saran and freezes it. Just slice and bake. There was absolutely no difference in flavor (I have had these so many times I'm definitely and expert...) and the texture was perfect. As another reviewer said, these cookies ROCK! I normally make them with heaping tablespoonfulls, so the cookies are very large, but if you want to freeze them, you can make the rolls of dough to be whatever size you want.
Saw the recipe yesterday and made them this morning - GREAT COOKIES! I actually got 7 doz. cookies using a medium-sized cookie scoop that's probably equal to about 2 Tbsp. Will definitely make these often!

|Since the 1970s, the role of social networks in tracing the underlying epidemiology of illness, distress, disease and disability; and, in understanding how people identify and respond to these crises, has become a mainstay of social and behavioral science research. In this piece, we introduce the papers in this volume in three ways. First, we summarize basic tenants of a social network approach, laying out what research has been able to support to date. Second, to avoid the danger of continuing to do more and more network studies that merely replicate what we already know rather than opening up new areas of understanding, we return to the earliest roots of the social network perspective. Third, we use this review in tandem with the volume's papers to mark the cutting-edge boundaries of current research and to identify the issues and questions that remain.

Note: I know I spelled Wednesday wrong, it's a play on words.
I was about 9 years old when cable television reached our community of High Ridge, a small town about 20 miles outside of St. Louis. I still remember the dial boxes sitting on top of the TV in our kitchen and family room. Instead of using a remote to zip through the channels, we had to turn the dial and click through each channel. Life was so brutal.
I have two strong memories from that time period. One was MTV and all the music videos that featured the stars I'd listened to on the radio for years. The other was Nickelodeon, the network for kids. The show that attracted my attention back then was called You Can't Do That On Television. For people who have never seen it, if you're older, it was a kid version of Saturday Night Live. If you're younger, it was the precursor to All That.
YCDTOTV featured a variety of child and teenage stars, telling jokes, doing skits, and getting slimed. The sliming was always my favorite. Whenever someone uttered the phrase "I don't know" a bucket of green slime was dumped on their head. I remember at one point they actually teased a show that would feature different colored slime. It was monumental in my tween years. If someone said "Water" on the show, you guessed it, they were doused with a bucket of water. Some stars had the double whammy of getting slimed and watered.
My friends and I would actually make our own slime and take turns playing dumb and saying those three famous words. While it wasn't as epic as the sliming on TV, it was a memory of my childhood that stands out to me.
The cast when I watched was great. I had a crush on the main star, Christine "Moose" McGlade. Lisa Ruddy, Kevin Kubushekie, and Alasdair Gillis were also favorites of mine. But perhaps the most talented member was the only adult male on the show, the late, great Les Lye. He played so many awesome characters including stage hand Ross, Barth (owner of the health code violating Barth's Burgers), and the dad. Music star Alanis Morissette appeared in five episodes of this Canadian hit.
I wish Nickelodeon would go retro and run episodes of YCDTOTV at some point, or even release the show on NetFlix or DVD. Everytime I see a locker, I have the urge to climb in and start telling jokes. Thanks for the memories.

Chicken Tostadas Reviews
Gourmet | July 2008
reviews & comments (77)
After all the reviews saying the tomato salsa for the chicken wasn't worth it, I was weary to try it. However, it's fast to make and gives the chicken an excellent flavor and mild heat with just one serrano. Definitely go for it. It's going into the permanent rotation at my house.
Made this tonight and it was delightful. I didn't have iceberg, so substituted with a combo of Romaine lettuce and purple cabbage, which provided great crunchy texture. Great combination of flavors and textures -- my family loved it!
I chose not to fry to tortillas, wanting to save some calories. This was good, easy, quick, and nutritious. Best of all, my family asked me to make it again.
WOW - didn't change a thing about the recipe (except add a couple drops of my favorite hot sauce on top before eating), it was absolutely delicious. And also makes a super quick meal the next day with the leftovers - just fry up some more tortillas and you're good to go!
The Tostadas were excellect, followed recipe with the addition of cumin and lime juice to taste to the Chicken mixture. Used romaine instead of iceberg. Be sure to serve with a wedge of lime for spritzing the the salad topping. Next time, will broil corn tortillas till crisp. Prep to finish, about 1 hour
I made this exactly to the recipe and it was outstanding. My only complaint is the "active" time it took to prepare -- a little over two hours. Will definitely make again, when I have lots of time to prepare a meal.

Guide Review - Polywell PolyNote 714AH 17-inch Desktop Replacement Laptop PC
Jul 19 2010 - For being a value 17-inch laptop, the PolyNote 714AH bucks the trend of using the popular Intel Core i3 processors and instead uses a slightly more powerful Core i5-430M dual core processor. This gives it a slight edge over other value 17-inch laptops. The problem is that Polywell ships the system with only 2GB of DDR3 memory when most laptops including budget models ship with 4GB. This will limit the systems ability to multitask without slowing down from virtual memory use.
Storage is another issue with the PolyNote 714AH. The system comes with a 250GB hard drive that is roughly half the size of a typical 17-inch laptop. This includes value based laptops that cost several hundred less. A dual layer DVD burner also comes with the system to handle playback and recording of CDs and DVDs.
One really nice aspect of the PolyNote 714AH is the display. While the laptop uses a glossy coating that is prone to glare and reflections, the display itself is seems to offer a higher level of brightness and color than laptops in the same price range. Viewing angles also seem to be a bit above average. The 1440x900 resolution is a bit lower than 1600x900 that many use but this has to do more with the 16:10 aspect ratio of the 17-inch display versus newer 17.3-inch panels.
While the display is quite nice, the graphics for the PolyNote 714AH are a bit underwhelming. It uses an older ATI Radeon Mobility HD 4570 graphics processor with 512MB of memory. This means that the system is going to fall short of the 1440x900 native resolution support in some games. It also lacks support for newer Direct X 11 graphics effects. Once again, many value laptops in this same range can offer newer and higher level of graphics.
Rather than using a larger nine cell battery pack, the PolyNote 714AH uses a six cell battery pack that keeps the size and weight of the laptop down. The downside to this is that the system has mediocre battery life. In my DVD playback tests, the system was able to run for just over two hours before going into standby mode. More traditional usage will probably extend the running time to just under three hours. This falls a bit short of the averages for 17-inch laptops particularly in this price range.
Another bright spot for the PolyNote 714AH is its peripheral support. Most companies have dropped the ExpressCard slot for space and to save a bit on production costs. Polywell has kept a smaller ExpressCard/34 slot that allows for easier upgrade potential for items such as cellular or WWAN network adapters.
The big problem though is the price. At $1000, the PolyNote 714AH just isn't as much of a value laptop as offerings from other companies. The features fall behind similarly priced laptops or you can find a similarly equipped model for less.

Two features immediately strike the first-time visitor to Harrogate: the open space of The Stray, a common of some 200 acres in the centre of the town, and the sheer wealth of Regency and Victorian buildings, which lend an old-fashioned, prosperous air. The spa town came into its own in the Victorian era, thanks to the curative powers of its mineral wells, but the place has now established itself as a centre for shows (from the agricultural – the Great Yorkshire Show – to antiques, flowers and toys) and conferences, with the Harrogate International Centre a magnet for businesses. The Montpellier Quarter, mainly centred on the renovated Royal Baths development, is the place to find some of the best restaurants in Harrogate, including one of the town's famous landmarks, Betty's Café Tea Rooms. Here too, is the contemporary Van Zeller, and seafood stalwart Drum and Monkey, which has plied its trade since 1971.

I have found a way to make the long commute into the city for uni enjoyable: I read nutrition books. The bus ride goes by rather quickly when I'm preoccupied by cramming my head full of juicy ideas and information. My most recent conquest is Kimberly Snyder's The Beauty Detox Solution, which I finished yesterday. I happened upon it by chance the other week when one of my lovely fellow nutrition students pointed it out to me on The Wellness Warrior must read list. I was intrigued and, being in need of a new book, I made haste (read: right then and there in class) to buy a digital copy on my iPad.
I powered through it which is an obvious sign I loved this book! I wanted to share with you a review so you can see if it's something you too might like to read.
I must admit, the title was initially off-putting for me, as I think in our contemporary times the word "detox" often bears connotations to a quick-fix diet rather than a way of engaging in ongoing detoxing through a healthy lifestyle (which is the way it should be!). I was thrilled to find that in fact Kimberly shares my perspective to a tee. The Beauty Detox Solution is a plan for life in which "detox" must be viewed as a verb, not a noun. It is based on many sound principles that I strongly agree with and I really enjoyed reading these through Kimberly's clear and passionate writing style.
According to the book, the aim of the game is to free up our "Beauty Energy" by making digestion and assimilation of nutrients as quick and smooth a process as possible. This way the energy we save can instead be used by our body for many other important functions, ultimately resulting in optimum health which beautifies us from the inside out. Yes, when we are clean and happy internally this will reflect by allowing us to become our most beautiful: shiny hair, strong nails, clear skin, ideal weight, fast healing.
Oh, by the way, Kimberly just happens to be drop dead gorgeous – the very personification of the message in her book. Coincidence? I think not. In this case, the proof is in the
pudding green smoothie!
Now there is a woman with the glow if ever I saw one! I love how Kimberly sets the perfect example of how high raw, plant based diet, like the one in The Beauty Detox Solution, paves the way for health, beauty and happiness. Indeed, Kimberly reveals that she personally does not consume any animal products, save for the occassional local raw honey. You certainly don't need meat or dairy to thrive. However, Kimberly's "Beauty Plan" is very flexible – you don't have to cut out animal products if you really don't want to. Instead you will limit them and learn how to eat them correctly whilst loading up on plenty of fresh raw fruit and vegetables. I think it's great that she provides options which make the plan highly accessible to everyone. To put a case in point, the book is filled with true stories of her clients and how various changes were able to drastically improve their health, such as swapping their old breakfast for a daily green smoothie.
So let's get down to the nutritional nitty-gritty, which I'm sure is what you're all waiting for, right?
Here are some of the main concepts that The Beauty Detox Solution involves, which Kimberly educates the reader about in an intelligent and down-to-earth manner:
- The way we are naturally supposed to eat: plant based diet high in raw fruit and vegetables. Fun fact: the strongest animal on earth, pound for pound, is the gorilla who is a natural vegetarian and gets heaps of protein from plants!
- The importance of having an alkaline body.
- Why we need to be continuously detoxing – the wheel won't run smoothly if it's clogged with sludge.
- "Beauty Food Pairing" which correlates to what many of us may have heard about in the form of food combining principles. Basically, why certain foods should only be eaten in certain combinations, what foods these are and how to implement proper combinations of fruits, vegetables, proteins, starches and fats in your diet.
- Eating light to heavy to allow the body to remain in a state of cleansing, healing and replenishing for as long as possible. This will certainly challenge those who believe we need a solid and hearty breakfast to start the day.
- How to avoid digestive "traffic jams."
- The importance of enzymes and minerals. Hello raw food!
- But cooked food still has a place – Kimberly discusses this. Options for those who wish to remain eating some animal protein too.
- The power of PLANT protein! (Remember how our Gorilla friend thrives?!)
- Important supplements: probiotics, digestive enzymes, magnesium-oxygen.
- Cleansing and getting a bit of extra help along the way (colonics and enemas, gasp!)
- "Beauty Phases" – there are three different phases that Kimberly presents, "Blossoming Beauty," "Radiant Beauty," and "True Beauty," complete with an outline and sample one-week menu. Each phase moves to a higher level of ongoing detoxification, however the plan does not require you to move "up" the phases as they are all greatly beneficial for one's health. Instead it is emphasised to find the one that suits you best and stick with what your body and mind are telling you.
- Recipes – a wide variety of simple, easy, delicious and super healthy staples and meals, including her famous "Glowing Green Smoothie." Largely raw with the inclusion of some healthy cooked starches.

Matthew Feeney was a prominent talent agent when he was charged with molesting two boys who were his clients. He claims he did nothing wrong, but the FOX 9 Investigators found Feeney's own words paint a startling picture.
If Feeney's job was to cast performers in just the right role, one might wonder what role he considered for himself -- and what role would best fulfill what he once called his "temptation."
"I can tell you what my trigger was," Feeney told a longtime advocate for sexual abuse survivors as he disclosed his attraction to boys between the age of 14 and 15. "I can tell you when I fell off the wagon."
It's already known that Feeney's victims span decades -- and possibly the country, but Feeney says he stayed away from teen boys in the years following three child sex abuse convictions in 1992. While he has repeatedly refused to give details about what he's done in recent years, Feeney did make an admission that some of his actions were "definitely" inappropriate while he was being recorded in secret.
The advocate for sex abuse survivors gave the recording to the FOX 9 Investigators, who also videotaped the encounter.
Court documents detail a trail of victims over decades -- some proven and some yet to be proven -- beginning as far back as the fall of 1990 and as recently as 2011. They also reveal a man who seems to want to make amends for what he has done, but not at his own expense.
"An honest person does 25 years. You've got nothing, no way to negotiate. The only defense you have is to keep your mouth shut and say, 'You've got to prove the case and make everybody -- including the kids -- go through this,'" Feeney said.
If convicted on the charges he now faces in Washington County, Feeney will face a maximum penalty of 25 years imprisonment. Last month, he appeared in court to face accusations he had molested two boys while they slept over at his home.
According to the criminal complaint, the boys are brothers -- and they and their parents met Feeney through his former casting agency, Walden Entertainment.
The boys' parents told FOX 9 News Feeney would often host X-Box parties with other children, and they let their sons go because they trusted that other children and parents would be there too.
Those who know Feeney told FOX 9 News he often would work to win the parents' trust as part of his "grooming process," which included showering the children with gifts.
That trust continued when the boys insisted everything was fine, and experts say that's not uncommon because predators put children in an awkward position of choosing between special benefits, gifts and attention or going against someone with high status and a position of authority.
The mother of the boys in the Washington County case told FOX 9 News Feeney was very believable -- until her youngest son fell to the ground and started crying, telling her Feeney had touched his privates.
"I almost passed out. For a second, everything stopped," she said. "Everything in my world stopped."
She then called her oldest son in and watched as her 6-foot-tall teen also fell to the floor in tears, saying, "Oh no."
"I said, 'I need to know the truth,'" the boys' mother recalled. "He said, 'Yes, mom. He molested me too.'"
The teen then told his mother he never thought his 9-year-old brother was experience the same thing -- and that is young for Feeney, even by his own admission.
"I'm not interested in somebody that age," Feeney said. "It's just … it would be like being comfortably gay and then some chick comes up and says, 'Hey, you want some?'"
However, that doesn't mean he wouldn't keep contact.
"It was basically like, 'Hang around him, 'cause in four or five years, he'll be old enough to be someone I'd be interested in," Feeney said.
After the news of the Washington County case broke in March 2012, yet another Minnesota mother had a painful talk with her teenaged son.
"He leaned forward and he grabbed my hand and he started crying," she recalled.
Two years earlier, the then-12-year-old and his mother stayed at a Wisconsin campground with Feeney and some other friends, sharing a large tent with him and a few others.
"Mind you, my son is sleeping next to me -- huddled up, 'cause it was cold," she said.
Court documents claim Feeney rubbed the boy's abdomen with his foot and tugged on his pajama bottoms with his toes. The boy said he thought Feeney was trying to get his pants down.
"A few minutes later, my son woke me up and said he was cold and asked if I would take him to the truck to sleep," she recalled.
That it happened while she was present makes her fear Feeney as dangerously brazen, she said -- and she's also frustrated that St. Croix County won't prosecute the case as an attempted sex crime. The district attorney told the FOX 9 Investigators he can't prove what Feeney was really up to -- but here's what Feeney said.
"I was testing the waters," he said.
Feeney said the boy had joked around with him during the day, something the much older man perceived as flirting.
"I was trying to see if there was anything to read into it," Feeney said, adding that it may have gone another step if the boy had reacted.
The parents of the boys say the scariest thing is the knowledge that their boys may not have come forward at all if they hadn't heard that Feeney had been accused of abusing a boy in Massachusetts in 2011.
Court documents from that case identify the victim as the son of a relative Feeney had been visiting, accusing Feeney of climbing into bed with the boy and putting his hand down the boy's pajama pants.
Parents and police fear there may be many more victims, and the Massachusetts victim said he is worried too because Feeney has been dressing up as Santa Claus for 21 years -- including at a home day care in Eden Prairie as recently as 2011.
It appears Feeney has struggled -- at least off-and-on -- for his entire adult life with what he called his "dark side."
In a journal from the early 1990s, Feeney wrote, "It would be so much easier to simply be gay. At least you could find some support and acceptance from others who share your feelings. How many support groups are there for potential child molesters? Call it what you want. That's what I am. I am a monster."
In the journal, Feeney also writes about going outside and shooting himself, saying, "at least the kids would be safe from me and my temptation."
Yet, it seems Feeney may have succumbed to that temptation. The journal landed in the hands of police investigators in 1992 after a boy accused Feeney of molesting him in his sleep while he stayed at Feeney's home in St. Cloud. Feeney was the boy's youth counselor at St. Joe's Catholic Church at the time.
In a statement to a detective obtained by the FOX 9 Investigators, Feeney admitted to fondling 10 or a dozen boys in their sleep, mostly while he was serving as a counselor at the Catholic youth camp near Milaca. He said 90 percent of those victims were 14, 15, or 16 years old.
That confession has many wondering how Feeney was able to continue, but Aitkin County filed charges in only two of the cases Feeney confessed to because the other boys said they didn't remember anything happening -- but it doesn't appear they interviewed all the alleged victims Feeney admitted molesting.
In 1992, Feeney pleaded guilty to abusing one boy at his home and two at camp. Instead of a year in prison, Feeney was sentenced to six months in jail, ten years of probation and had to go into sex offender treatment.
Now, Feeney is claiming he wants to make amends to the boys in the current cases and wanting to avoid trial for the sake of the children.
"They are out for blood," Feeney said. "They want to put me away for the rest of my God d---- life, and that's not exactly appropriate for what I've been accused for either."

KingsCast Hits Us With Both Barrels Once Again
December 22, 2009 Leave a comment
Keith Korneluk and Chris Kaliszewski have hit us with both barrels once again this week with two episodes of Overtime by KingsCast.
First, Korneluk and Kaliszewski reveal who they selected as the Los Angeles Kings' "Goaltender of the Decade" in a special edition of Overtime.
You can watch this special episode of Overtime by KingsCast here:
In Episode 32 – Holiday Spectacular, Keith and Chris review the Kings' performance of late and they get us all in the holiday spirit with a Kings-related theme.

Sometimes the volume boot code, part of the volume boot record that resides on the drive that Windows is installed on, can become corrupt or accidentally reprogrammed to use the wrong boot manager.
When this happens, you can get system-halting errors, usually hal.dll errors in Windows 7, 8, and Vista.
Luckily, correcting volume boot code errors is easy with the bootsect command, a boot sector restore tool only available from the Command Prompt available from Advanced Startup Options or System Recovery Options.
Here's How:
Access Advanced Startup Options (Windows 8) or boot to the System Recovery Options menu (Windows 7 & Vista).
Note: Feel free to borrow a friend's Windows disc or flash drive to access one of these diagnostic modes if you don't have Windows media on hand.
Another Option: Using original installation media is just one way of accessing these repair menus. See How To Create a Windows 8 Recovery Drive or How To Create a Windows 7 System Repair Disc (depending on your version of Windows) for help creating repair discs or flash drives from other, working copies of Windows. These options are not available for Windows Vista.
Open Command Prompt.
Note: The Command Prompt available from Advanced Startup Options and System Recovery Options, and in Windows as well, functions very similarly between operating systems so these instructions will apply equally to any version of Windows setup disc you're using including Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, etc.
At the prompt, type the bootsect command as shown below and then press Enter:
bootsect /nt60 sys
The bootsect command as used above will update the volume boot code on the partition used to boot Windows to BOOTMGR, the one that's compatible with Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, and later Windows operating systems.
Note: The nt60 switch applies the [newer] boot code for BOOTMGR while the nt52 switch applies the [older] boot code for NTLDR.
Tip: Some documentation I've seen online regarding the bootsect command refers to it updating the master boot code, which is incorrect. The bootsect command makes changes to the volume boot code, not the master boot code.
After running the bootsect command as shown in the last step, you should see a result that looks something like this:
C: (\\?\Volume{37a450c8-2331-11e0-9019-806e6f6e6963}) Successfully updated NTFS filesystem bootcode. Bootcode was successfully updated on all targeted volumes.
Note: If you receive some kind of error, or this doesn't work after you try to start Windows normally again, try running bootsect /nt60 all instead. The only caveat here is that if you dual boot your computer, you may inadvertently cause a similar, but opposite, problem with any older operating systems you boot to.
Close the Command Prompt window and then remove the Windows disc from your optical drive or the Windows flash drive from its USB port.
Click the Restart button from the System Recovery Options window or touch/click Continue from the main Advanced Startup Options screen.
Windows should start normally now.
If you're still experiencing your problem, like a hal.dll error for example, see the note in Step 4 for another idea or continue with whatever troubleshooting you were following.
Having problems using bootsect /nt60 to change the volume boot code? See Get More Help for information about contacting me on social networks or via email, posting on tech support forums, and more.

One day we are going to look back, and the Kobe stories are going to rival the Jordan legends we all know so well. Kobe Bryant is never one to take losing easy, has finally mounted to making audible physical threats against his teammates if the 8-9 Lakers don't start winning.
Here is what the Bean had to say:
"I'll kick everybody's ass in this locker room if it doesn't happen," Bryant said after a 113-103 loss to the Orlando Magic at Staples Center. Yes, the 6-10 Orlando Magic. "It's the attitude you have to have. Metta is the same way. Dwight has it in him as well. Even though he smiles a lot, he cares a lot about this. Come hell or high water, this has to get done."
-Yahoo!/ Joe McDonnell of FoxSports.com
Advice to Lakers: Dwight better start hitting those 80% free throws he makes in practice!

Buffett Swoops In, Nabs Constellation at a Discount
Berkshire to acquire flagging energy company
You just knew Warren Buffett was going to roll in and make a discount buy amid the market upheaval this week. Sure enough, the mega-billionaire, who just lost the title of wealthiest person in the U.S. to Bill Gates, said Thursday that a company owned by Berkshire Hathaway would buy the flagging Constellation Energy Group for $4.7 billion in cash.
The price Buffett (or rather Berkshire-owned MidAmerican) is paying—$26.50 a share—is 60 percent below where Constellation was trading at the end of August. At 1:30 p.m., shares of the company (symbol CEG) were trading at $24.90.
In a statement, Buffett said of Constellation, a supplier of energy products and services to wholesale customers:
MidAmerican has been a wonderful steward of its energy assets and the acquisition of Constellation Energy, when completed, will prove beneficial to all constituents.
The acquisition is expected to be a done deal by close of business Sept. 19.

By Mike Pound
If you are reading this on Saturday, then that means there are only three days left in 2012.
I would like to spend the remaining days of the year quietly reflecting on the past and thinking of ways that I can improve myself in the New Year.
Sometimes I kill myself.
Nope, when it comes to a new year I prefer to take the late, great Satchel Paige's advice: "Don't look back, something might be gaining on you."
I try not to look back to the previous day, let alone on an entire year. Take this column, for instance.
It's Friday morning as I type this and I can't remember what I wrote about on Thursday. When it comes to writing a daily column, it's important, I think, to have a short memory. Writing a daily column is much like being a closer in baseball, except for the fact that closers make a lot of money, are famous, wear a uniform and spit a lot. Other than that, being a closer is a lot like being a daily columnist.
Even the best baseball closer is going to screw up every now and then. And if you're not the best baseball closer you're going to screw up even more, but despite that you still have to go out the next day and try to close a game. The way you do that is to forget about what happened the day before.
So, at this time of the year I prefer to look ahead. Looking back doesn't do any good. Actually looking forward doesn't do much good either but it's better than looking back.
As I look ahead, I see myself writing columns in January about the "this-time-it's-really-going-to-happen fiscal cliff."
In February, I will probably write a column about my wife telling me not to buy her roses for Valentine's Day because "they're so expensive." I will ignore it because while I may be a moron I'm not a complete moron.
In March, I will probably write a column about the "I-mean-it-I-swear fiscal cliff." I will also in March mention the great John Wayne movie "The Quiet Man" only instead of typing the word "quiet" I will type the word "quite" throughout the entire column. I'm pretty sure George Will would never do that.
In April, I will probably write a column about those "Real Housewives" shows. The reason I say that is because, as I type this, my 14-year-old daughter, Emma, is sitting in the same room as me and she is watching "Real Housewives of Orange County." I'm not sure what is happening in the show but it sounds like there is some sort of conflict.
In May I'll write about the "impending-head-for-the-hills fiscal cliff." I will write that column right after I write my annual column about the Kansas City Royals being eliminated from the playoffs.
In June, because of the pressure of writing a daily column, I will be forced to take a vacation with my family. After two days I will beg to be allowed to go back to writing my column.
My family vacations tend to be stressful.
In July, the fiscal cliff will be so close that I will write a column saying that the world, as we know it, is over.
In August, I will write about my then 15-year-old daughter and the fact that she doesn't seem to be around the house as much as she used to and my wife will read it and say, "You moron, school started."
In September, I will write a column about the Kansas City Chiefs being eliminated from the playoffs, and, of course, in October I will write for Halloween about the scary fiscal cliff.
Which gets us to November, when I will write a column about the turkey that will never cook and make a joke about Rush Limbaugh.
Finally, in December, I will write a column in which I wonder what happened to the fiscal cliff.
Oh and at least once or twice during the year I'll mention beer.
Don't look back.
