At this month's Russell County LINK Board Meeting, Board Member H.M. Bottom, updated the board on an insurance claim and quote to replace a Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) unit damaged during thunderstorms in April.
"KACo (Kentucky Association of Counties) did well (with our claim) but then they've always been good to deal with," said Bottom. "I told (Interim 911 Supervisor) LeeAnn (Roy) to…go ahead and order the stuff for (the CAD unit)."
He said the quote, from InterAct Public Safety Systems to replace the storm damaged CAD has a problem because the company has indicated any additional time will be charged at $175 per hour.
Any additional charges would not match the amount presented in the claim he said.
Bottom said the technician said he believes the work can be completed for the quoted amount but there is a possibility of needing additional hours if there are unforeseen problems.
"He gave us a price for coming down here for $450 plus so much time," said Bottom. "Well, if he's ever put (a CAD unit) in before, he should know about what it takes to put it in."
Bottom was concerned about the possibility of having additional charges in excess of the original quote.
Discussion followed as to whether or not a service agreement would cover the expense; however, Roy said the service agreement only covers software and equipment under warranty.
The CAD Unit was purchased in 2006 and is no longer under warranty Roy said.
She said InterAct Public Safety Systems is the only service provider for the CAD unit so there's no other option.
Russell County Attorney Kevin Shearer suggested setting a limit to the total amount charged for the work.
"Could we not put a ceiling on that extra work," said Shearer. "I mean, if he's the only show in town, we can't go anywhere else…we may need to negotiate…can you at least say it ain't gonna go above this much?"
Necessity of installation of the CAD unit was priority in discussion that followed.
"Well, we're talking about $200 - $400 more, we might as well go ahead and have it fixed," said Russell Springs Police Chief Joe Irvin.
Even if InterAct Public Safety Systems offered a ceiling it may still be in excess of what the board deems reasonable he said.
Irvin said if the company sends an outrageous bill "that's what we have the county attorney here for."
Shearer agreed the work needs to be completed with supervision and communication between InterAct, 911 Dispatch, and the LINK Board.
"I don't disagree with Joe from the standpoint that he may give us a ceiling but it may be $5,000 just because he can be arbitrary (because) he's the only show in town," Shearer said. "It may be that we just say that we agree that they do (the installation) but if it goes above what you all have quoted us, we need to know…so we'll know what all is going on."
Irvin advised the board to move forward with the work and to have someone monitoring progress so the board will be notified if the time spent on installation starts to exceed the quote.
"I agree with Kevin," Irvin said. "Let's get it done and if it starts to exceed (the quote), (Roy) ought to be there and say 'Hold on I'm going to get approval.'"
The board voted unanimously to accept the quote and schedule the CAD installation.
Russell County Attorney Kevin Shearer and a Russell County Constable requested a User Agreement with 911 Dispatch's access to the National Crime Information Center (NCIC).
Some discussion was held regarding duties of constables in Russell County and whether or not it is necessary for constables to have access to NCIC.
"My question is, why is it needed by (constables)," said Shearer. "Because as we're set up today, unless the fiscal court changes it Monday night,…(constables) have no power of pulling anybody over with a blue light."
"I just don't think we're set up for that now."
Shearer said he would follow up with TAC Officer Sondra Wesley about completing a User Agreement for the county attorney's office, ask her for a list of others who currently have user agreements in place, and report back to the board at next month's meeting.
Russell County Judge Executive Gary Robertson announced his plan to discuss a restructure of the county's EMS and 911 Dispatch Service.
"We'll probably address (Enhance 911 Organizational Restructure) Monday night or start the process," Russell County Judge Executive Gary Robertson told the LINK Board. "We've got some figures from other entities and I've got my proposal that I'm going to submit to the fiscal court and then to all the entities and we'll start the process and decide what we're going to do."
No discussion among the board followed Robertson's statement.
The LINK Board also did not discuss any information regarding developments since the special called meeting held Friday, May 13th when the issue of possible unauthorized overtime and double coverage at Russell County 911 Dispatch was brought to their attention.
In other business:
• Russell County 911 Dispatch is no longer on probation.
• The six month probationary period that we were on for the LINK and NCIC - we have now passed that six month probationary period," said LINK Board Chairman Tony Wright. "We're off probation."
• Wright said the board was notified they will receive CMRS (Commercial Mobile Radio Service) payments August 1 for $7,302.68 and August 15 for $19,794.46.
• The Trimble GPS unit has been repaired and returned to the 911 center.
• Interact Cad map has been updated.

Render therefore unto Caesar the things which be Caesar's, for this be Monday Mail.
So long September
Say goodbye to September today, for Tuesday is Oct. 1, kicking off the final quarter of 2013. Columbus Day is but two weeks away, as our local government observes the holiday. And then get your costume ready because Halloween is just around the corner, waiting to jump out at you.
It lands on a Thursday, this year, so all the costume parties may hang over 'til November.
Tax man
For homeowners here in Muscogee County, Tuesday is a special day: It's the day they have to pay at least 40 percent of their property taxes, with the balance due Dec. 1.
At least I think that's the breakdown. Let's see what the bill says.
Oh look, it includes an "Important Notice," which is an orange copy that comes with a white copy and a yellow copy. It says:
In an effort to reduce costs and streamline our processes, your property tax bill has been reduced to a two-part bill -- a white copy and a yellow copy. The "white" copy should be remitted with your payment and the "yellow" copy retained for your tax records. You WILL NOT receive a "green" copy as in the past years.
DO NOT remit payment to the Tax Commissioner's Office if your mortgage company pays the taxes through an escrow account. Kindly forward the "white" copy to the mortgage company immediately for payment.
Be sure to read IMPORTANT information on the backside of your property tax bill.
Dear tax office:
Is the important information on the backside of the "white" copy or the "yellow" copy?
Oh wait -- it's on both. OK, I was right: You must pay at least 40 percent Tuesday. And you'd better get right on that, because this bill says:
"Property taxes not paid by October 1 are delinquent October 2, and the total 100 percent tax bill becomes delinquent with penalty. Pay by the indicated due dates and avoid a 10 percent and interest of 1 percent per month. "
So don't forget to take the "white" copy with your checkbook to the tax commissioner's office, which is open 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., but is not where it used to be.
It's no longer in the Government Center's east wing. It's off Macon Road at the new city service center, 311 Citizens Way, which is behind the school district headquarters and in front of the natatorium.
And if you want to get to the service center parking garage without driving around all that stuff, take the entrance off Rigdon Road, not Macon Road.
And for gosh sakes don't park in any of the city administrators' reserved spaces, or you'll have to pay a parking ticket, too.

Fan Fare
Entertainment behind the scenes
It's Art (but not entirely cinematic) at Cannes
Hundreds of movies will screen over roughly 10 days of the Cannes film festival, either as part of the cinematic event or in the movie market that takes place here every year. It is the perfect meeting of film art and movie commerce.
But Saturday night, there was a little less art, some commerce, and a lot of giving at a fundraiser held for non-profit group The Art of Elysium, which encourages artists to give their time to kids with medical conditions. For more about them, click here.
The event, sponsored by Hollywood movie financier Relativity Media and Cartier, was picked to be one of the splashier affairs of the festival's opening weekend and by the time dinner was over, director Quentin Tarantino showed up. Actor Giovanni Ribisi was hanging around, as were Robin Wright Penn, Ryan Phillippe, Paula Patton and Kevin Pollack, among other stars. There were movers-and-shakers of the indie film world, too, including businessman Avi Lerner.
It's fairly rare to get into such a soiree (unless you have big money to give, and we here on Fan Fare do not). So for a quick peak, click below:
At dinner, we sat next to actor Oscar Isaac, not a household name yet, but maybe one day. He has starred alongside Leonardo DiCaprio in "Body of Lies," and he portrayed Joseph in 2006′s "The Nativity Story." His manager says he has Academy Awards in his future (hey, that's what a talent manager is for!), and it could happen. Why not?
It was Oscar's (he certainly has the name for winning an Academy Award) first time at Cannes, and he was excited to be on the French Riviera at a swanky party in a centuries-old chateau. He is here with the movie "Agora" starring Rachel Weisz. We've met a lot of stars over the years, and Oscar seemed like a nice guy – not pretentious at all, easy to talk with, intelligent. We wish him well.
We also talked to the guys from "Anvil: The Story of Anvil," the documentary about the 1980s metal band Anvil. The heartfelt and warming (yes, a warming film about Heavy Metal headbangers) movie shows the band's two main men, guitarist Steve "Lips" Kudlow and drummer Robb Reiner, staying together through good times and bad for roughly three decades. The documentary has put the band back on the rock music map. Reiner called it "a miracle" to even be at Cannes screening their film for international audiences.
But the best — and perhaps most telling of Cannes' opening weekend — chatter we overheard all night is below (and if you listen closely in the first party scene of the above video you can hear it).
Girl 1 says to Girl 2: "So, are you going to that Elysium party?"
Girl 2: "We're here"
Now that's art!

Open house-style meetings Tuesday and Wednesday will offer more information on planning for rebuilding Interstate 94 from 70th Street just south of Wauwatosa to 26th Street in Milwaukee.
The Wisconsin Department of Transportation will host the meetings from:
- 4 to 7 p.m. Tuesday at the Tommy Thompson Youth Center, State Fair Park, 640 S. 84th St., and
- 4 to 7 p.m. Wednesday at Marquette University High School, 3401 W. Wisconsin Ave.
The meetings will provide updated studies of alternatives that are being considered, according to the DOT, including three-dimensional renderings. For the first time, information will be given on impacts to real estate and the environment.
"No final decisions have been made regarding changes in the corridor," says a DOT release. "A recommended alternative has not yet been identified."
The current timeline for the project calls for planning and design through 2018, with construction to begin only in 2019 when the Zoo Interchange Project is expected to be complete.
One more set of meetings will be offered this summer – dates yet to be announced – before a recommendation on route modifications will be made this fall.
A couple of touchstone questions have risen around preliminary planning, including one that could affect Wauwatosa neighborhoods, businesses and commuters.
One alternative brought up last year for the modified corridor would be removing the 68th/70th Streets interchange all together. The DOT believes a leading cause of accidents in the corridor is having too many on-off ramps too close together, and that Hawley Road to the east and 84th Street to the west could serve the area while improving safety.
The idea has not sat well with Wauwatosans for whom North 68th Street is the major local artery serving Hyde Park (at 68th and Wells), the State Street business corridor and even North Avenue in East Tosa.
A matter of contention since the beginning of consideration of rebuilding the corridor has been the fate of portions Wood National Cemetery, a National Historic Landmark, if the decision is made to widen the freeway.

Grand opening: Eggs 'n Things, Ala Moana
It's been a long time since i was at E&T, not once to their current location on Saratoga. Does anyone else remember way back when to the little place on Ena Road, where you had to step down two steps? Not sure the food has ever been as it was back then, but that could just be a memory defect.
Anyhow the new location is 451 Piikoi, that strip mall at the ewa (west) end of Ala Moana center. Guess I'll have to give it a try.
Yes, I remember Ena Rd. I'm not sure if I'm all the way in town that the new location would by part of my destination. I spent a good time of driving over the hill in the past 2 weeks eating at Nico's, Roy's Waikiki, and the Whole Ox. Well worth the drive!
ena road eggs was the place to be when the wave was there.
i was at the saratoga location last week or so and it was closed for renovation but there were coupons at the place next door (looks like they just sell eggs n things related merchandise) where you could get a free apron from the ala moana location.
so i ended up at the new store (where i <3 country cafe used to be) and scored the apron. ordered an overpriced loco moco for about ten bucks. they put the grill flavor on heavy and i thought it detracted from the dish.
reviewing the menu, i think everything is overpriced. there was an article in the paper about them today, check it out. oct 31 today section

Bloggers (and other online friends) visited: Rhiannon and Trish, locally, as well as Carina and Arablit while on vacation.
Places visited through reading: Egypt, Haiti, USA, Pakistan, Norway, France, Burundi, Israel, Palestine, South Africa
Places visited irl: Ohio, Florida, Istanbul, Egypt
Book Purchases: I received my first package from my Feminist Press subscription, and also had to use some of my Audible credits before they expired. I really must cancel my subscription there or listen to more audiobooks. Additionally, in Cairo I purchased two books at the American University in Cairo so far – Cairo by Ahdaf Soueif and The Tent by Miral al-Tahawy. My roommate said that books purchased on vacation if by local authors, are an acceptable exception to the buying ban!
Thoughts and ramblings: This was a really different month for me with two whole weeks at home catching up on life. When there is only a week or less home in a month I find that one week is usually full of obligations such as appointments, so having the second week is always a treat as it's finally a bit of time to relax. This relaxing took a few different forms, as I watched a few documentaries I'd been holding on to, went to a screening of Miss Representations (I will post about it some day soon!), caught an all-black opera, Oheah Opera, saw The Hunger Games, and a few other random events.
March saw more news come out about the Book Blogger Convention, and what it will be like now that it is owned by Book Expo America. I can't say I'm super thrilled about the news but I am super thrilled about the idea of a separate blogger run unconference instead. I can now happily report that I am once again excited about the upcoming trip to New York City.
I mentioned above the two weeks that I spent in Toronto. The first of these weeks was rather frigid, as I suppose is to be expected in early March. The second week, however, was absolutely gorgeous. We saw weather in the high teens to low twenties (Celsius, of course), which is both crazy and fantastic (in my mind). It was an early taste of summer that has me extra excited for when summer actually arrives. I love summer in Toronto as there is always so much going on.
Most exciting about March is that the last week of March (and first week of April) is vacation for me, and I am spending it in Egypt with Carina. It took about two days to fly over which included a long layover in Istanbul. I did a quick city tour and can only say that I can't wait to go back some day. I absolutely loved it.
After arriving in Cairo, Carina and I were able to catch a discussion by Arablit which was really neat. Since then we've been doing all kinds of touristy things including pyramids, riding camels, visiting mosques, a day trip to Alexandria, and of course eating great food! I am really enjoying Cairo, it is a fantastic city and we've been doing a lot of just wandering around. I highly recommend it!
And of course, multiple days flying plus vacation clearly equals a lot of reading time! Mixed in with all the tourist stuff is also time to relax and read, as can be confirmed by the fact that fully half of my reading was done in the last week of the month! :)
April 10, 2012 9:46 pm
I doubt I'll ever make it to BEA, but I'm still relieved (from a distance) about the blogger unconference. Drooling with envy over your vacation!!

NASHVILLE, Tenn. | It wasn't that the Capitals lost Wednesday night. It's still the preseason, after all.
But the way they lost – with defensive foul-ups and offensive stagnation – was enough to make Bruce Boudreau noticeably agitated.
"There's some good teaching material in there. They're getting their goals from right in front of the net. It's losing your man and not having your head on a swivel and leaving the zone too early," the coach said. "It was a combination. It wasn't the kids that were out there when all these goals were scored, either."
Look at the goals the Predators scored on Wednesday night in their 4-1 win, and it wasn't a good night for Mike Green and Jeff Schultz in particular, and a little bit of John Carlson.
Green and Schultz were out there for two goals and got crossed up.
"The two times that we were on the ice for the goals, both times we were switched up on each other's sides," said Green, who held court after the loss. "I remember we used to never do that, and we never had a problem."
For Carlson and Karl Alzner, it was a matter of communication.
"Obviously some of the goals that they scored we were in the wrong position, we weren't getting back deep enough and not talking enough, I guess," Alzner said in a one-on-one interview. "It was the same thing the last time we played these guys: two turnovers and two goals. It's all stuff that we did wrong tonight, and they capitalized on their chances."
The lack of offensive production also caused some Boudreau scorn afterward.
"We had four shots, I think, in the second period," he said. "When you're looking for the perfect shot and maybe guys that are used to scoring that haven't scored in preseason are looking for the perfect play. But that's not the way you get goals: You get goals by going to the net and shooting pucks and eventually one goes in off your head or off your knee or something or you score a goal.
"Where did they get all of their goals from? In the blue. Every one of them, in the blue, going to the net."
That's something the Caps didn't do. And Boudreau wasn't afraid to point the finger at his veterans, like Green and Schultz.
"It wasn't the kids that cost us the game," Boudreau said. "It's preseason, but it's the guys that have been around for a few years that you look down at the scoresheet and they're minus-2, minus-3 with the most minutes."
And the possibility that the Caps are rusty? Boudreau isn't buying that idea.
"Well, I hope it's not rust," he said. "These guys have been practicing hard every day now since camp began, or played games. Our guys are playing games. It's time we started to get our act in gear and start playing better."

One of Cullman County's jewels is the Folsom Field airport.
In recent years, the Cullman Regional Airport Board and manager Bon Burns have been quietly working to make improvements to position the airport facilities as an important economic engine for the area. In a ceremony last week, area officials and residents congregated at the airport to review the completed apron improvement, which is a vital area of the facility for loading, unloading and refueling airplanes.
Folsom Field also has additional hangars, which opens the way for lucrative maintenance operations related to aviation.
Expansions at the nation's airfields are closely monitored by the Federal Aviation Administration and require a great deal of planning to gain approval for grants and projects.
Burns and the airport board have done a good job of positioning Folsom Field for the future and providing a new economic gateway for the community.
The goal at Folsom Field is not to become a huge destination airport like Huntsville. That's just not realistic. But for many business leaders and prospects looking over the area, the airport is an important facility. The leadership at the airport also realizes that the size and potential of Folsom Field is for attracting specialized jobs with companies that need space and access to a good workforce. Cullman County offers those resources.
Interestingly, Folsom Field is also the largest skydive operation in the state. That in itself is a marketable attribute of the airport.
The real future for airports the size of Folsom Field is in economic development. With the right commitment and vision, the local airport can continue to grow as a source of economic impact. Much of what is needed to make that happen is under way.

From Michael Jordan's obsession with rocking North Carolina shorts under his Chicago Bulls shorts during games to Serena Williams' need to bounce the tennis ball five times before her first serve, athletes have long been believers that superstitions give them the added edge they need to get in the zone before games. Every week we'll take a look at some of the wackiest superstitions athletes and coaches from around the country implement. This week we caught up with Sharpstown (Houston) linebacker Reggie Chevis, a Texas A&M commit.
The Superstition: Sunflower Seeds of Power
The Breakdown: "It's really simple: I can't even think about playing unless I eat a full bag of sunflower seeds. I just basically take them back and eat them before I walk onto the field."
The Why: "It's like this, Popeye had his spinach and I have my sunflower seeds. I don't know if it's the salt in them or what, but I definitely feel way more powerful when I've eaten my sunflower seeds. I wouldn't be able to play without them I don't think."

Having a good time is not worth risking lives.
That's the lesson that anyone who has heard the tale of Dallas Cowboys football player Josh Brent's weekend should understand.
Brent faces intoxicated manslaughter charges after a one-vehicle accident early Saturday morning left teammate and dear friend Jerry Brown dead.
Brent's Cowboys played the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday.
Brent was scheduled to start that game.
Instead, he was in an Irving, Texas, jail awaiting his release on $500,000 bond.
Brown was a practice squad player. He was paid by the Cowboys, but did not play in games.
Brown's funeral is Saturday.
This was a tragedy, pure and simple.
Not because two football players are lost to their team, but because a life was taken — and for no good reason, pure and simple.
If the reports of the accident are correct, then Brent was intoxicated when he wrecked his car.
Whether Brent is convicted of any charges or serves any time in prison remains to be seen.
But, if Brent and Brown had taken a cab, chances are none of this would have happened.
We are not advocating that people should not drink.
We are only saying don't drink and drive.
Don't get behind the wheel if you have been drinking to excess.
You are risking not just your life, but the life of your friends or someone else.
It's not worth it.

Carpe Diem without Carpal Tunnel
Seize the day and find relief. RIC at Silver Cross Holds Free Program March 14
Joliet, IL (March 4, 2011)— Carpal tunnel syndrome can make life miserable. The compression of a nerve in the wrist can make a movement painful, creating numbness and pain up the arm and into the shoulder. Even sleep becomes impossible because of the constant pain.
"Carpal tunnel is caused by the compression of a nerve in the hand as it passes through the wrist. It is often caused by repetitive actions, such as working at a computer" says Karen LaBarbara, Occupational Therapist with The Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago at Silver Cross Hospital. LaBarbara specializes in hand therapy and treats many carpal tunnel patients at Silver Cross. "Carpal tunnel does not have to hinder your life style, LaBarbara adds, "It is so important to take action early on, practicing light stretches and taking small breaks in your daily activity."
If you are at risk for carpal tunnel, learn more about the common symptoms and prevention tips.
Check Yourself. People with carpal tunnel syndrome first notice that their fingers "fall asleep" and become numb at night. They often wake up with numbness and tingling in their hands. The feeling of burning pain and numbness may generally run up the center of the person's forearm, sometimes as far as the shoulder. As carpal tunnel syndrome becomes more severe, symptoms are persistent throughout the day. If it is left untreated, it can lead to loss of feeling, strength and coordination.
Prevent the Pain. If you spend hours working at a desk, or feel any of the above symptoms, try these tips to help prevent carpal tunnel:
- Sleep with your wrists straight or using a splint.
- Avoid flexing and extending your wrists repeatedly. If you work at a computer, or in a repetitive job, make sure to take small breaks throughout the day.
- Perform conditioning and stretching exercises. Yoga is a fun way to incorporate daily stretching.
- Use correct positioning of hands and wrists while working. If you are spending a lot of time in front of computer, make sure you are sitting up, and your hands are angled appropriately.
Learn more about carpal tunnel syndrome by visiting the Silver Cross YouTube page in March. Or join Karen LaBarbara for a discussion on non-invasive techniques to help you conquer carpal tunnel Monday, March 14 at Silver Cross Hospital, 1200 Maple Rd. The free program will be from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. Click here or call 1-888-660-HEAL (4325) to register.

Right now, two bills critical to the future of North Carolina are sitting on Governor Pat McCrory's desk in Raleigh dealing with unemployment and Medicaid.Some expected McCrory to sign both Friday but so far he has not pulled the trigger.Both issues are extremely controversial.The unemployment bill slashes the maximum amount and number of weeks jobless people can receive benefits, and critics say the bill blocking Medicaid expansion would leave hundreds of thousands uninsured in North Carolina.Some polls show McCrory already taking a hit on these issues, but there is no real indication yet that he's having second thoughts about signing these bills into law.Still, the silence is leaving some to wonder if critics could cause delay in the signing of both bills. Because - unlike McCrory - those critics were anything but quiet on Friday.Take Charlotte Mayor Anthony Foxx. He wrote an extensive post on his Facebook page condemning the move to cut unemployment benefits, worrying there that "lines at soup kitchens and homeless shelters will get longer...approximately 170,000 North Carolina unemployed workers would lose benefits that have kept food on the table and a roof over their heads."There were protests in both Charlotte and Raleigh Friday, too, over the state's chilly attitude toward the Affordable Care Act. McCrory's office did not return calls for comment.

Every so often we like to share what we've been working on. The following are a handful of reports we released to our Global Lifestyles and Technology Foresight subscribers.
Travel & Tourism: The Next Decade
- Image: Darek214 (Flickr)
Over the course of the next decade, a new wave of technologies will move from development and niche application toward mainstream use by consumers. This brief is one in a series that explores how these technology trajectories may come to change travel and tourism.
China's Evolving Diet
- Image: Twang_Dunga (Flickr)
China's diets continue to evolve as the middle class grows and incomes rise, and as China's younger generations who were raised in a more prosperous, post-reform China become more dominant within Chinese society. This brief examines trends in Chinese diets and explores the implications of these changes for business.
Homeschooling Evolves: Five Ways
- Image: Brandi Jordan (Flickr)
As parental concerns about school environment, the one-size-fits-all nature of education, and the strength of curricula grow, homeschooling is evolving in new ways. This Global Lifestyles brief identifies five key ways in which homeschooling is changing and what they could mean for the future of both home-based and conventional schooling. It also explores the resulting implications and opportunities for business.
Women Rising: Worlds 2 and 3
- Image: http://www.photographybyjoelle.com (Flickr)
Working women in emerging markets are making unprecedented strides in education and income, giving them vast new opportunities as citizens, consumers, employees, and entrepreneurs. Some business and political leaders refer to these women as "the third billion"…an "emerging market" equal in numbers and potential to China or India. This Global Lifestyles brief looks at topline trends in the economic empowerment of women in Worlds 2 and 3.
Healthcare at Home: Six Forecasts
- Image: juhansonin (Flickr)
This brief presents six forecasts for the evolution of home care over the next decade. It summarizes the driving forces behind the rise of home care, notes important enablers that must be put in place for a successful transition toward home medical care, and outlines the many opportunities that the transition to home care will present across relevant sectors of the economy.
Asian-American Values and Attitudes
- Image: lta362 (Flickr)
This brief examines the cultural attitudes, values, and political attitudes of Asian Americans. In addition, it explores the implications of these values and attitudes for businesses attempting to engage this group of largely well-educated, relatively prosperous Americans.

- Image: Will668 (Flickr)
Biometric identification has long been described as an emerging technology, but is now being implemented in a wide variety of applications and settings. This Technology Foresight brief summarizes the forces that are driving growing application of this technology, and offers seven forecasts for the future of the technology as it transitions to widespread use.
Digital Payment Futures
- Image: TilenHrovatic (Flickr)
There is a push underway to digitize consumer payments, led by those seeking to make the mobile phones and other personal devices into digital wallets. To help monitor this trend, Innovaro analyzed the results of a recent survey about the future of device-based payment systems conducted by the Pew Research Center. This brief presents key themes that emerged from the survey and synthesizes them with material from other sources to explore the future of digital money.
- Image: segwaysocial2 (Flickr)
The goal of micromobility solutions is to provide convenient transport in congested urban areas and to solve the "first/ last mile connectivity" problem…in other words, connecting public transportation points of entry/ exit to homes, workplaces, shopping, and other destinations. This brief explores the future of micromobility vehicles, which may become a more important part of integrated urban mobility solutions over the next decade and beyond.
Cloud Robotics
- Image: topgold (Flickr)
Researchers, including at Google, are creating robots that tap the processing power and data made available by cloud computing, seeing it as a way to create "lighter, cheaper, and smarter" robots.

Nice stay to visit the waterfalls
We stayed in a triple room. Very basic for a 4 * hotel, but clean and quiet.
The swimming pool is very nice.
The restaurant is quite cheap and the buffet is very good value for money.
The staff is good.
The location is ok, 5 minutes taxi to the city center. Nice swimming pool and good location.

Jared Allen got poked in the eye late in the game vs. the Cardinals. It wasn't as bad as that scene in Any Given Sunday but it was pretty bad. Jared being a bad-ass went back into the game after a few plays and recorded a sack, prompting Chris Myers to refer to him as "The One-Eyed Monster." Anything you want to tell us Chris?

The first day of school isn't without some bumps in the road, but students, teachers and principals are excited about the new academic year.
A new locker combination takes a little getting used to, and so do new classes, but the first day is really fun, said seventh-grader Ethan Krantz, of He's looking forward to meeting new people and having gym class next semester, but he said he had a good summer as well.
"Most of the time, I just sat around but I went on a couple of cool trips," he said. "And I got to sleep in, which was really nice."
Sixth-grader Alexis Skinner said she was a little nervous about her first day of middle school, but now she's excited and "it's been great."
She met new students and teachers.
"I'm looking forward to meeting new friends," Alexis said. "I'm excited about all my classes."
"It's going great, other than the rain. That's probably the only kink in the entire day," said AGS Middle School Principal Heidie Ciesielski.
Assistant Principal Eric Rettenmund said staff helped some students open their lockers and get to class. Enrollment at is about the same as last year, with approximately 766 students.
An eighth-grader, Erin Tesner, sat with friends during lunch. She was having a good first day, she said, and she likes having an earlier lunch this year.
It was "weird" walking into school for the first day, but "we don't have any homework," Erin added.
Seventh-grader Cassie Menzies said she likes having classes with some of her friends. Her science class is exciting, because of the teacher, Todd Mills, she said.
Seventh-grader Sam Deardorff said he thinks it will be a fun school year and he'll have a good time in his new grade. "I like my teachers so far, and I just joined band so I think I'm going to like that, too."
Ciesielski said staff are working on improving students' test scores in science, math, reading and writing this year. Another school improvement goal is to increase the sense of belonging among kids. A primary way of doing this is Positive Behavior Support Interventions, she said. Students will have a chance to play a "minute to win it" game in late October or early November.

The past week brought a welter of ugly headlines in North Carolina politics. A mayor arrested for corruption, troubles at the Department of Health and Human Services, another round of bitter accusations between environmentalists and Duke Energy.
Weve grown accustomed to protests, indictments and recrimination, believing ourselves to live in a deeply divisive age.
Our fellow residents, the polls tell us, disapprove of the Republican legislature, arent thrilled with the governor and dont like out-of-power Democrats any better. Were grumpy about the health care law, divided about unemployment insurance and annoyed always and forever annoyed about tax rates. Six in 10 of our countrymen believe America is heading in the wrong direction, an improvement from the 8 in 10 who thought so last fall.
Small wonder that we hear constant pleas for civility, for an end to discord and partisanship.
But there was another event in the political life of North Carolina last week, one so common it didnt merit a headline or even a mention.
On March 28, men and women from 19 countries stood at the front of a UNC auditorium, their right hands raised, and pledged to support and defend the Constitution of the United States.
Im proud to call you fellow Americans and fellow Tar Heels, said Ron Strauss, the Universitys Chief International Officer. Thank you for choosing to call the United States home.
A clutch of spectators looked on as husbands and wives, mothers and fathers, friends and future neighbors from Albania to Vietnam collected their naturalization papers and joined our little civic experiment. Similar ceremonies happen in North Carolina every week, though not always with the benefit of an ROTC color guard and a student a cappella group singing the national anthem. Nearly 12,000 new citizens were naturalized in North Carolina In 2012, the last year statistics are available.
There was no mention of what drew these new citizens to America. Some for work, certainly. Others for love. Some may have come for school and decided to stay for life.
But at least a few of those newly sworn Americans may have been drawn by the very politics we bemoan. While we throw up our hands at the latest outrage, its worth remembering that one mans dysfunction is anothers vibrant democracy. Through the eyes of a young woman from Burma or a recent graduate from China, our quarrelsome political system is a wonder.
There is a certain majesty in the indictment of an allegedly corrupt politician, along with the presumption of innocence and the opportunity to face a judge and jury. A cabinet secretary called to publicly answer tough questions is a workaday matter in our fine state, and also a miracle of civic accountability. Its depressing that North Carolinas largest utility was able to co-opt state regulators for so long, but remarkable that well get to read subpoenaed documents and hold officials responsible.
Our political culture is absolutely a mess, a riot of argument and accusation laid bare in a free and ornery press. It was meant to be; the American experiment was never designed to end political debate, but to promote it.
Conditions in this yet young Republic, with all its crudeness and aspiration, its innately splendid virtues as well as its vulgarities, cannot have less than the thrill of a challenge, UNC President Edward Kidder Graham wrote in 1908.
Graham understood that the eternally new business of making a civilization is noisy and contentious. Hed be proud to see a new generation of citizens taking their obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion joining the cause.
Welcome, fellow Tar Heels. Now grab a bullhorn.
Eric Johnson is a writer in Chapel Hill.

text: Bill Belichick announced on Monday the New England Patriots hired former Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Brian Daboll to a position on their coaching staff, Field Yates of ESPN Boston reports. Daboll, who began his NFL coaching career in 2000 with the Patriots and was with the team through the 2006 season, will reunite with several former coaching colleagues, including offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels. The 37-year old started his work with the Patriots as a defensive assistant during the 2000-2001 seasons before moving to a role as the wide receivers coach, which he held from 2002-2006. Daboll was hired by Eric Mangini when he took the head coaching with the New York Jets in 2007, serving as his quarterbacks coach for two seasons. Mangini, who also worked his way up the NFL coaching ladder with the Patriots, brought Daboll with him to the Cleveland Browns in 2009 when he was named the head coach there, and Daboll was tabbed as his offensive coordinator, a position he held for two seasons.

When the 2006 film Stranger than Fiction showed in Messiah's Parmer Cinema, The Odd Men were there, some to see it for the first time, others ready to take a second look at the movie directed by Marc Forster. The evening was unique, for a number of reasons. Not only was it NOT an odd Wednesday (it was a Saturday), but also the group invited family and friends to come along, for both the movie and the discussion following. Why the break from tradition? The film group wanted to share the experience of having guests Crystal Downing, professor of English and film studies, and Sharon Baker, assistant professor of theology, who led a spirited discussion of the movie, its characters, symbolism, themes, and theology. Crystal and Sharon have co-authored a review of the film which will appear soon in Christianity Today's review column at http://www.christianitytoday.com/books/.
You're invited to read the following email dialogue in which three members of the group share their thoughts about Stranger than Fiction.

"An almost unbearable exploration of ultimate sacrifice"
Stranger than Fiction — A review
By N. Curtis Byers '80
For some time now, the best animated kids' movies like, say, Aladdin, Shrek, or The Incredibles, play out on two very different levels simultaneously. There is the ostensible kids' movie the parents bring the family to see, and then there is the grown-ups' movie slinging out humor and witty pop culture allusions way over the kids' heads. The lucky adults are the ones who stay in close enough touch with their inner child to be able to enjoy the movie on both levels and laugh at the kids' jokes too.
Stranger than Fiction — a movie about the man Harold Crick, who figures out he is a character in a novel— is also a "different movie to different viewers"— but it was almost certainly not intended by its screenwriter and director to be such. The movie's premise has obvious comedic potential: the man discovers he is a character in a novel when he starts hearing his life being narrated as he goes through his day, only to discover that his author always kills off her heroes. The movie's humorous possibilities are fully exploited by actors Will Ferrell, Emma Thompson, Dustin Hoffman, Queen Latifah, and Maggie Gyllenhaal. So Stranger than Fiction is funny enough that critics' almost universally review it with mild praise as a comedy (the acting alone is good enough throughout to warrant that). The strictly comedic classification is ironic in that a plot theme is Harold Crick's urgent need to figure out if his life is a comedy or a tragedy, so he can identify the author of his life to tell her, as it turns out, that her creature lives. But if comedy is all that Stranger than Fiction is or intends to be, faint praise is the most that it deserves.
Very likely it is only those with eyes to see, say viewers informed by a Christian world view like the Odd Men Out (OMO), who are able recognize in that very same movie the other Stranger than Fiction, that is a minor masterpiece and the OMO Movie of the Year 2006: a profound and, to more than one member of the OMO, almost unbearably poignant exploration of the reasons for, and possible rewards of, ultimate sacrifice. OMO member Gene Chase is on to something in characterizing Stranger than Fiction as a 21st century retelling of O. Henry's "Gift of the Magi." The only problem with that comparison is that the cost to the two givers of their gifts in O. Henry's story is ultimately trivial. In Stranger than Fiction, the two givers both make a sacrifice that each has reason to believe is, on their own terms, total. That the movie is also very funny is merely the bow on the box of that rare gift from Hollywood, a movie that is both deeply moving and delightful. One can only feel sorry for those viewers and reviewers of the unopened box: Stranger than Fiction, the comedy.

Traverse City Record-Eagle
---- — LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder has signed legislation letting the state dissolve deficit-ridden school districts and send the students to nearby schools.
The bills signed Tuesday are intended to address two struggling districts in the Detroit and Saginaw areas but could affect more districts in the future.
The Inkster and Buena Vista districts face the prospect of not having enough money to open for classes in September.
The law lets the state school superintendent and state treasurer dissolve a district with 300 to 2,400 students under certain circumstances.
Snyder attributes problems facing struggling districts to dropping enrollment and mismanagement. He's forming a workgroup to recommend ways to detect financial problems in districts earlier.
Snyder also plans to name a team to review the Pontiac school district's finances in the next day.

Brue committs to UC San Diego
By mbower
Friday, April 24th, 2009 at 5:49 pm in Uncategorized.
Bishop O'Dowd star forward Justin Brue has committed to UC San Diego. The 6-foot-5 Hayward Area Athletic League first teamer averaged 13.8 points per game while leading the Dragons to the North Coast Section Division III semifinals. Brue is expected to sign with the NCAA Division II school Saturday.
That puts Brue, Rashad Parker of Castro Valley and Davion Berry of Hayward all in the same conference next season (CCAA).

The practice of yin yoga provides the perfect balance to your active (yang) yoga practices and your busy life. Focusing on long-held floor poses combined with breath work and meditation, yin yoga goes beneath the superficial muscles to target the dense connective tissues of the body – often in the hips, pelvis, and low back – which are difficult to open and can result in both limited flexibility and stagnant energy. This deep practice is gentle, yet intense, helping students not only to open the body, but also to cultivate the ability to observe and stay with sensation.
Afterwards, through guided imagery and techniques of systematic release, you'll arrive at a state of profound physical and mental relaxation, penetrating the unconscious and subconscious self. It's said that half an hour of Yoga Nidra can replace three hours of sleep. You'll leave refreshed and ready for the world.

Two Chesterfield homes were broken into last week and were pilfered for jewelry and, in one case, alcohol by the intruders.
The first incident occurred in the 1300 block of Countryside Manor Place on Jan. 22. According to police, the suspect forced open a rear door using unknown means while the home's owners were out for the evening. The suspect then proceeded to take rings, earrings, necklaces and a bottle of vodka.
In a separate incident on Jan. 16, another unknown suspect forced the rear door at a home in the 16000 block of Clarkson Woods Drive, also taking several items of jewelry from the residence.
Police said they do not have any reason to believe the two burglaries are related, and both incidents are under active investigation.

10. Re: Assasin Progallp13 Jan 9, 2012 5:19 AM (in response to bo2000)
Thank you.....do you have any evidence that Assassin Pro is at risk?
Its just that
1. The volume of traffic on forums, Facebook and twitter on this matter is statistically insignificant in comparison to
Spawn fix
Nerfing FMG9 akimbo and T95 which tend to appear as a box set.
2. 402 announcements confirm dev focus I'd not on nerfing or buffing this or any perks. See facts in link
Still you may have info to the contrary. Would appreciate sources or otherwise. Thx in advance.
11. Re: Assasin Probo2000 Jan 9, 2012 5:34 AM (in response to gallp13)
Thanks for the link. Still I don't give a rats tail about Mr. Bowlings promises
12. Re: Assasin Progallp13 Jan 9, 2012 5:39 AM (in response to bo2000)
Does final authority regarding what is and isn't changed in MW3 rest with 402 alone?
13. Re: Assasin Probo2000 Jan 9, 2012 5:42 AM (in response to gallp13)
Well in this case we would all be damned
14. Re: Assasin Progallp13 Jan 9, 2012 5:53 AM (in response to bo2000)
I assume you are saying;
1. no to sources confirming nerf assassin pro?
2. no to final exec authority rests with 402?
If so thank you, if otherwise would still appreciate sources as they would be helpful.
Will assume "no" and "no" in event of no response. Cheers
15. Re: Assasin ProIEliteWalker Jan 9, 2012 6:07 AM (in response to bo2000)
There isn't really any other perks worth using because you'll only be at a disadvantage.
Blast shield? Nope.
Quickdraw? Use untill level 27.
Hardline? Most people use support so hardline isn't even needed.
Overkill? Assault rifles dominate so you only need one weapon.
"Bling" should've came back as a red perk.
16. Re: Assasin Prothegedden Jan 9, 2012 6:21 AM (in response to bo2000)
Such the BIAS!
If you are aggressive that's fine, thats actually the way i like to play.... Check my perk set ups i will always have Assassin but I NEVER Camp!! NEVER!!.... But i can understand that the ASS. perk is a very OP..... Look Nothing I mean NOTHING counters it....... NOTHING. Not even AUAVs, really????? I could actually understand Baby Monitors but AUAVs.... DONT say "well spy drones can uncloak you" NO, stupid spy drones take ONE player out of the game completely while he PILOTES the damn thing.... Waste of time... It should be AI assisted like the pavelow or attack heli. that would be fair and cool!!!
Nerf the ASS perk, the game would be better...
That would get those damn noobs and cheezers moving around...
Im starting to think its one of those Noob elements they put in the game so that it help new comers. You know thats why the FMGs (For Mindless Gamers) The Type Noobied and the Striker are soooo good... they are trying to give the Noobs Tools to win.....
Noob Tools!
17. Re: Assasin Proangrymeerkat Jan 9, 2012 6:27 AM (in response to thegedden)
I love how people automatically associate Assassin (or Ghost) with camping. The 2 issues are totally seperate.
A camper will camp regardless of the perks, as that is his playstyle.
An assassin user is by definition NOT a camper, in fact most people using it are very mobile players.
What makes me laugh the most is how people assume the assassin user was camping just because they didn't see his little dot move. How many of you have gone back in theatre and watched the assassin users game? I guess very very few of you. Whats even more laughable is the amount of people who blame assassin and campers for their deaths. You should know by now to check your corners, but instead you STILL run around blindly, STILL get killed repeatedly because there was no red dot to help you, and you STILL come here to complain about it!
Rely on your minimap - expect to die by assassin users/campers
Use your eyes - live longer and die less as you will see players instead of relying on red dots
18. Re: Assasin Prodjam Jan 9, 2012 6:42 AM (in response to bo2000)
This perk should be rebalanced as it's currently too effective.
It counters too many things automatically and permanently while is only countered by two things that have to be used manually and only work for a limited time.
My suggestion:
1. Marksman should work against Assassin Pro users, obviously. Makes no sense that Assassin Pro counters this perk and not the other way around.
2. Advanced UAV should show Assassin Pro users.
3. Heartbeat sensor immunity should be removed from Assassin and moved to some other perk, like Blind Eye or Dead Silence.
It's funny how defesive you Assassin users get when people point out how unbalanced the perk is. Telling people to "use their eyes" and "stop chasing red dots" are both terrible arguments. Asssassin Pro counters too many thinks without having any decent counters itself. That's why it's not balanced and should be nerfed. They need to add some counters that are not as situational and limited in supply. Like the ones I suggested.
19. Re: Assasin Prothegedden Jan 9, 2012 6:41 AM (in response to angrymeerkat)
did you read my SECOND line? "IF YOU ARE AGRESSIVE THATS FINE".... I mean that...But Ass. Pro is unbalnced because there is nothing to counter it... You us all your EYES all you want but when you are checking your corner the guy who is pops in front of you kills you...
All Im saying is hey make counter to it then no one would have much ground to complain.. Correct?
Yes they would prob find something else but hey they wouldn't complain about this Ass Pro AKA Noob Tool anymore!
